THE NOTE

Section 2.1. The Note.

(a) On the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Borrower shall deliver on the Closing Date to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, one duly executed promissory note in substantially the form of Exhibit B (the “Note”) dated as of the date of this Agreement, and otherwise duly completed. The face amount and maximum principal balance of the Note shall be $34,891,977.97.

(b) At least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Borrower (or the Servicer on its behalf) will provide the Administrative Agent with a wire disbursement and authorization form instructing the Administrative Agent of the account where the Borrower requests the Loan be funded. On the Closing Date, and subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth and the satisfaction of all conditions precedent in Article III, each Lender shall fund its Pro Rata Share of the Loan to the Borrower, in immediately available funds via wire transfer, in accordance with the written instructions of the Borrower, provided that the amount of the Loan funded shall not exceed the Maximum Outstanding Loan Amount.

(c) The Borrower may, within 90 days but not less than 30 days prior to the Maturity Date, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, make a request for each Lender to extend the Maturity Date for an additional period of 364 days. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of receipt of such notice. The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall make a determination, in their sole discretion, within 15 days of the date of the Borrower’s request for such extension, as to whether or not it will agree to the applicable extension requested. The failure of the Administrative Agent and each Lender to provide timely notice of its decision to the Borrower shall be deemed to constitute a refusal by the Administrative Agent and each Lender to extend the applicable date. The Borrower confirms that the Administrative Agent and each Lender, in their sole and absolute discretion, without regard to the value or performance of the Collateral or any other factor, may elect not to extend the Maturity Date. The Borrower shall give prompt notice to the Backup Servicer and the Collateral Custodian as to whether or not the Maturity Date has been extended. In the event the Maturity Date has not been extended the Borrower may repay the Outstanding Loan Balance and all other Aggregate Unpaids in accordance with Section 2.6 by transferring the remaining Collateral to an Affiliate (including, but not limited to, the existing financing facility between the Administrative Agent and Fair Facility I, LLC, subject to the availability and terms of such facility); provided that if the Borrower chooses not to exercise such option then the Borrower shall pay all amounts necessary to reduce the Outstanding Loan Balance to $0 pursuant to Section 2.6.

Section 2.2. [Reserved]

Section 2.3. Determination of Interest.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall determine, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Interest Rate and the Interest (including unpaid Interest related thereto, if any, due and payable on a prior Payment Date) to be paid by the Borrower with respect to the Loan on each Payment Date for the related Accrual Period and shall advise the Borrower, the Servicer and each Lender thereof not later than 2:00 p.m. on the third Business Day following the end of each Collection Period. The Borrower shall pay all Interest due for each applicable Accrual Period pursuant to Section 2.6.

(b) Anything in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, if at any time the rate of interest payable by any Person under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents exceeds the highest rate of interest permissible under Applicable Law (the “Maximum Lawful Rate”), then, so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be exceeded, the rate of interest under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate. If at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, such Person shall continue to pay interest under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received from such Person is equal to the total interest that would have been received had Applicable Law not limited the interest rate payable under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents. In no event shall the total interest received by a Lender under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents exceed the amount that such Lender could lawfully have received, had the interest due under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents been calculated since the Closing Date at the Maximum Lawful Rate.

Section 2.4. Notations on the Note.

The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to enter on a schedule attached to the Note a notation (which may be computer generated) or to otherwise record in its internal books and records or computer system with respect to the Loan (a) the date of the funding of the Loan and principal amount thereof and (b) each repayment of principal thereof. Any such recordation shall, absent manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence of the Outstanding Loan Balance under the Note. The failure of the Administrative Agent to make any such notation on the schedule attached to the Note shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loan in accordance with the terms set forth herein.

Section 2.5. Principal Repayments.

(a) Unless sooner prepaid pursuant to Section 2.6, the Outstanding Loan Balance shall be repaid in full on the Termination Date.

(b) If as of any Measurement Date the Outstanding Loan Balance exceeds the Maximum Outstanding Loan Amount (including as a result of an Eligible Receivable becoming a Defaulted Receivable), the Borrower shall within five (5) Business Days of the actual knowledge thereof by a Responsible Officer deposit the Required Reduction Amount into the Collection Account.

Section 2.6. Settlement Procedures.

On each Payment Date, the Servicer shall direct the Collateral Custodian to pay pursuant to the Servicing Report (and the Collateral Custodian shall make such payment from the Collection Account to the extent of Available Funds in reliance on the information set forth in such Servicing Report) to the following Persons, the following amounts in the following order of priority:

(a) to each Hedge Counterparty, if applicable, pro rata, based on the respective amounts owed under all Interest Rate Hedge Transactions related thereto, including any unpaid Hedge Breakage Costs with respect thereto;

(b) to the Servicer, in an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees and any reimbursable expenses of any successor Servicer;

(c) pro rata in accordance with the amounts due under this clause and to the extent not paid by the Borrower, to the Backup Servicer and the Collateral Custodian, pro rata, in an amount equal to (i) any accrued and unpaid Backup Servicing Fees, Collateral Custodian Fees, Owner Trustee Fees and Transition Expenses, and (ii) incurred but unreimbursed reasonable third-party, out-of-pocket expenses relating to their respective duties as Backup Servicer, Collateral Custodian or Owner Trustee hereunder, in respect of which the Backup Servicer, the Collateral Custodian or the Owner Trustee, as applicable, has provided prior written notice setting forth such expenses in reasonable detail to the Servicer and the Administrative Agent, for the payment thereof, provided that amounts payable pursuant to this clause (ii) shall not exceed $5,000 for any Payment Date;

(d) to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, in an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid Interest and any other fees or expenses due and payable to the Lenders hereunder;

(g) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each applicable Lender, all amounts necessary to reduce the Outstanding Loan Balance to $0; and

(h) any remaining amounts shall be distributed to the Borrower (and the Borrower shall be permitted to, among other things, further distribute such amounts to its Affiliates or its members at its discretion); provided that the Borrower may at its discretion direct

the Collateral Custodian to pay any portion of the remaining amounts to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, in reduction of the Outstanding Loan Balance.

(a) Collections. The Servicer shall direct each Obligor on the Receivables to make payments only to one of the Lockbox Accounts listed on Schedule VIII, as such Schedule VIII may be amended from time to time.

The Servicer shall further include a statement as to the amount of Collections on deposit in the Collection Account on each Reporting Date in the Servicing Report delivered pursuant to Section 6.8(a).

(b) Excluded Amounts. With the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent which consent may be given by an e-mail transmittal, the Servicer may withdraw from the Collection Account (not more than once per week) any deposits thereto constituting Excluded Amounts if the Servicer has, prior to such withdrawal and consent, delivered to the Administrative Agent a report (a copy of which (together with the written consent of the Administrative Agent) will be provided by the Servicer to the Backup Servicer and Collateral Custodian) setting forth the calculation of such Excluded Amounts in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(c) Initial Deposits. On the Closing Date, the Servicer will direct the Collateral Custodian in writing to deposit into the Collection Account all Collections received in respect of Receivables after the applicable cutoff date established in connection with the acquisition thereof (if other than the Closing Date) and delivered to the Collateral Custodian.

Prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, to the extent there are uninvested amounts deposited in the Collection Account, all such amounts shall be invested in Permitted Investments selected by the Servicer in written instructions delivered to the Collateral Custodian (which may be in the form of standing instructions); during the continuance of an Event of Default, to the extent there are uninvested amounts in the Collection Account, all such amounts may be invested in Permitted Investments selected by the Servicer and approved in writing by the Administrative Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). All earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) thereon shall be retained or deposited into the Collection Account and shall be applied on each Payment Date pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.6. All investments shall be subject to availability. Absent receipt of instructions as contemplated herein, the Collateral Custodian shall have no obligation to invest any funds.

It is understood and acknowledged that the Backup Servicer, if appointed as Servicer hereunder, shall not be required to select Permitted Investments.

(b) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of the payment of Interest or any fee payable hereunder, as the case may be.

Section 2.9. [Reserved]

Section 2.10. Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy; Illegality.

(a) If after the Closing Date or with respect to a particular Lender, the date such Lender joins this Agreement pursuant to Section 13.16 either (i) the introduction of or any change (including, without limitation, any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements) in or in the interpretation of any Applicable Law or (ii) the compliance by a Lender with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall (A) subject a Lender to any Tax (except net income, gross income or franchise and similar taxes imposed on any Lender by a taxing jurisdiction in which any such Person is organized, conducts business or is paying taxes (as the case may be)), duty or other charge with respect to any interest in the Collateral, or any right or obligation to make the Loan hereunder, or on any payment made hereunder, (B) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve requirement (including, without limitation, any reserve requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding any reserve requirement, if any, included in the determination of Interest), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the amount of, or credit extended by, any Lender under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or (C) impose any other condition affecting the ownership or security interest in the Collateral conveyed to the Lenders hereunder or any Lender’s rights hereunder or under any other Transaction Document, the result of which is to increase the cost to any Lender or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by a Lender under this Agreement or under any other Transaction Document, then on the Payment Date following demand by such Lender (or the next Payment Date, if such demand is given less than five (5) days prior to a Payment Date) (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such demand), the Borrower shall pay directly to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional or increased cost incurred or such reduction suffered.

(b) If either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law, guideline, rule, regulation, directive or request or (ii) compliance by any Lender with any law, guideline, rule, regulation, directive or request from any central bank or other

governmental authority or agency (whether or not having the force of law), including, without limitation, compliance by a Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of any Lender as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or arising in connection herewith to a level below that which any such Lender could have achieved on the date it became a Lender, and to such extent, but for such introduction, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender with respect to capital adequacy) by a material amount, then from time to time, on the Payment Date following demand by such Lender (or the next Payment Date, if such demand is given less than five (5) days prior to a Payment Date) (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such demand), the Borrower shall pay directly to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction. For the avoidance of doubt, if the issuance of any amendment or supplement to Interpretation No. 46 or to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140 by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or any other change in accounting standards or the issuance of any other pronouncement, release or interpretation, causes or requires the consolidation of all or a portion of the assets and liabilities of the Borrower with the assets and liabilities of any Lender or shall otherwise impose any loss, cost, expense, reduction of return on capital or other loss or any Lender, such event shall constitute a circumstance on which such Lender may base a claim for reimbursement under this Section 2.10.

(c) In determining any amount provided for in this Section 2.10, the Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. Any Lender making a claim under this Section 2.10 shall submit to the Servicer and the Borrower a written description in reasonable detail as to such additional or increased cost or reduction and the calculation thereof, which written description shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand or receive such compensation. The Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender for any loss, cost or expense under this Section unless a claim therefor has been made within 180 days of knowledge thereof by such Lender.

Section 2.11. Taxes.

(a) All payments made by the Borrower or the Servicer (on behalf of the Borrower) under this Agreement will be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes. If any Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable hereunder, then the amount payable to such Person will be increased (the amount of such increase, the “Additional Amount”) such that every net payment made under this Agreement after withholding for or on account of any Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes on such increase) is not less than the amount that would have been paid had no such deduction or withholding been made; provided that no Additional Amount shall be payable hereunder to any Person to the extent such amount is payable as a result of the failure of such Person to comply with Section 2.11(d). The foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts with respect to payments required to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement will not, however, apply with respect to net income, gross income or franchise and similar taxes imposed on the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

(b) The initial Servicer will indemnify (and to the extent the indemnification provided by the initial Servicer is insufficient, the Borrower will indemnify) each Lender for the full amount of Taxes payable by such Persons in respect of Additional Amounts and any liability (including interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto; provided that no indemnification shall be payable hereunder to any Person to the extent such amount is payable as a result of the failure of such Person to comply with Section 2.11(d). All payments in respect of this indemnification shall be made on the Payment Date following the date a written invoice therefor setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of such amounts is delivered to the Borrower. In the event any Secured Party receives a refund of any amount paid by the Borrower or the initial Servicer pursuant to this Section 2.11, as long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such Secured Party shall promptly remit such refunded amount to the Borrower or the initial Servicer, as applicable.

(c) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment by the Borrower of any Taxes, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent appropriate evidence of payment thereof.

(d) If any Lender is not created or organized under the laws of the United States or a political subdivision thereof, such Lender (or the Administrative Agent on the Lender’s behalf) shall deliver to the Borrower, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian and the Servicer, (i) within fifteen (15) days after the date such Lender becomes party to the applicable Transaction Documents, two (or such other number as may from time to time be prescribed by Applicable Law) duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms or other certificates or statements that may be required from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities or Applicable Law), as appropriate, to permit the Borrower to make payments hereunder for the account of such Lender without deduction or withholding of United States federal income or similar Taxes and (ii) upon the obsolescence of or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in, any form or certificate previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.11(d), copies (in such numbers as may from time to time be prescribed by Applicable Law or regulations) of such additional, amended or successor forms, certificates or statements as may be required under Applicable Law to permit the Borrower to make payments hereunder for the account of such Lender without deduction or withholding of United States federal income or similar Taxes (and, in either case, the Borrower shall be permitted to withhold, without penalty or liability, amounts it deems reasonably necessary if such documentation is not delivered hereunder). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any additional costs or expenses that are due to the fact that a Lender is not created or organized in the United States shall not be passed through to the Borrower.

(e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower and the Servicer contained in this Section 2.11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 2.12. Assignment of the Contractor Sale Agreements.

The Borrower hereby assigns to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder, all of the Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to, but none of its obligations under the Contractor Sale Agreements (including all buyback obligations of the

applicable Contractors) and any UCC financing statements filed under or in connection therewith. The Borrower confirms that at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon ten (10) days written notice to the Borrower and the Servicer, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall have the sole right to enforce the Borrower’s rights and remedies under the Contractor Sale Agreements for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

Section 6.13. Appointment of Successor Servicer.

(a) On and after the receipt by Administrative Agent or the Borrower, as applicable, the Servicer and the Backup Servicer of a Servicer Termination Notice pursuant to Section 6.12, the Servicer shall continue to perform all servicing functions under this Agreement until the date specified in the Servicer Termination Notice or as otherwise specified by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, as applicable, in writing (with a copy to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as applicable) or, if no such date is specified in such Servicer Termination Notice or otherwise specified by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, until a date mutually agreed upon by the Servicer and the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, as applicable, and shall be entitled to receive, to the extent of funds available therefor pursuant to Section 2.6, the Servicing Fee therefor until such date; provided that any fees or expenses owed to the Servicer attributable to the period prior to such date shall accrue and remain payable. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower, as applicable, may at any time following delivery of a Servicer Termination Notice, by written notice to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, and the Backup Servicer, in its sole discretion and subject to clause (h) below, appoint the Backup Servicer or Fair as the Servicer hereunder, and the Backup Servicer or Fair,

As compensation therefor, the Backup Servicer or Fair, as the case may be, shall thereafter be entitled to the Servicing Fee together with any other rights to reimbursement to which the Servicer is entitled as specified herein, Transition Expenses and, solely in the case of the Backup Servicer, the one-time successor servicer fee specified in the Backup Servicing Fee Letter. In the event that the Administrative Agent does not so appoint the Backup Servicer (which it may or may not do in its discretion), there is no Backup Servicer or the Backup Servicer is unable to assume such obligations on such date, or the Borrower does not so appoint Fair (which it may or may not do in its discretion), or the Fair Servicing Condition is not satisfied, the Administrative Agent shall as promptly as possible appoint a successor servicer (the “Successor Servicer”), and such Successor Servicer shall accept its appointment by a written assumption in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent and each Lender; provided that if a Servicer Default occurs and the Servicer is not an Affiliate of the Borrower then the Borrower shall appoint the Successor Servicer with the written consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). In the event that a Successor Servicer has not accepted its appointment at the time when the Servicer ceases to act as Servicer, the Administrative Agent may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint any established financial institution, having a net worth of not less than $50,000,000 and whose regular business includes the servicing of loans, as the Successor Servicer hereunder.

(b) The Backup Servicer as successor Servicer undertakes to perform only such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, it being expressly understood by all parties hereto that there are no implied duties or obligations of a successor Servicer hereunder.

(c) The Servicer agrees to cooperate and use commercially reasonable efforts in effecting the transition of the responsibilities and rights of servicing of the Receivables, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Backup Servicer as successor Servicer for the administration by it of all cash amounts that shall at the time be held by Servicer for deposit, or have been deposited by the Servicer, or thereafter received with respect to the Receivables and the delivery to the Backup Servicer as successor Servicer in an orderly and timely fashion of all files and records with respect to the Receivables and a computer tape in readable form containing all information necessary to enable the Backup Servicer as successor Servicer to service the Receivables. In addition, the Servicer agrees to cooperate and use commercially reasonable efforts in providing at the Servicer’s expense to the Backup Servicer, as successor Servicer, with a list of key servicing personnel and contact information, reasonable access (including at the premises of the Servicer) to the Servicer’s employees, and any and all of the books, records (in electronic or other form) or other information reasonably requested by it to enable the Backup Servicer, as a successor Servicer, to assume the servicing functions hereunder.

(d) The Backup Servicer as a successor Servicer is authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do so or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination or to perform the duties of the

Servicer. The Servicer will provide the Backup Servicer, as successor Servicer, with a power of attorney stating such (at such time as the Backup Servicer becomes successor Servicer).

(e) Upon its appointment, the Backup Servicer (subject to Section 6.13(a)) or the Successor Servicer, as applicable, shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer with respect to servicing functions under this Agreement and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof, and all references in this Agreement to the Servicer shall be deemed to refer to the Backup Servicer or the Successor Servicer, as applicable; provided that the Backup Servicer or Successor Servicer, as applicable, shall have (i) no liability with respect to any action performed by the terminated Servicer prior to the date that the Backup Servicer or Successor Servicer, as applicable, becomes the successor to the Servicer or any claim of a third party based on any alleged action or inaction of the terminated Servicer, (ii) no obligation to perform any repurchase or advancing obligations, if any, of the Servicer unless it elects to in its sole discretion, (iii) no obligation to pay any taxes required to be paid by the Servicer (provided that the Backup Servicer or Successor Servicer, as applicable, shall pay any income taxes for which it is liable), (iv) no obligation to pay any of the fees and expenses of any other party to the transactions contemplated hereby, (v) no liability or obligation with respect to any indemnification obligations of any prior Servicer, (vi) no obligation to make payments with respect to any losses on investments made by or at the direction of the Servicer, (vii) no obligation to take any legal action which the Backup Servicer in its reasonable opinion believes subjects it to any liability in connection with such legal action unless it shall have been assured to its reasonable satisfaction that it will be indemnified for such liabilities, and (viii) no liability with respect to any action performed, or breaches or defaults caused by any prior Servicer prior to its appointment, or any claim of a third party based on any alleged action of any prior Servicer. The indemnification obligations of the Backup Servicer or the Successor Servicer, as applicable, upon becoming a successor Servicer, are expressly limited to those arising on account of its failure to act in good faith and with reasonable care under the circumstances. In addition, the Backup Servicer or Successor Servicer, as applicable, shall have no liability relating to the representations and warranties of the initial Servicer contained in Article IV. In no event shall the Backup Servicer or the Successor Servicer be liable for any indirect, special or consequential damages (including lost profits) whether or not it has been advised of the likelihood of such damages.

(f) Upon the Backup Servicer receiving notice that it is required to serve as the Servicer hereunder pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.13, the Backup Servicer will promptly begin the transition to its role as Servicer. In the event the Backup Servicer declines to continue to act as Servicer hereunder, the Backup Servicer shall solicit, by public announcement, bids from banks, specialty finance companies, asset managers and servicing institutions meeting the qualifications set forth in Section 6.13(a). Such public announcement shall specify that the Successor Servicer shall be entitled to the full amount of the Servicing Fee as servicing compensation. Within thirty (30) days after any such public announcement, the Backup Servicer shall negotiate and effect the sale, transfer and assignment of the servicing rights and responsibilities hereunder to a qualified party acceptable to the Administrative Agent submitting a qualifying bid. The Backup Servicer shall deduct from any sum received by the Backup Servicer from the successor to the Servicer in respect of such sale, transfer and assignment, all costs and expenses of any public announcement, of conducting such

sale and of any sale, transfer and assignment of the servicing rights and responsibilities hereunder. After such deductions, the remainder of such sum shall be paid by the Backup Servicer to the Servicer at the time of such sale, transfer and assignment to the Servicer’s successor. If no bid from a qualified potential Successor Servicer is received or if no sale, transfer and assignment of the servicing rights and responsibilities hereunder shall have been concluded within thirty (30) days after such public announcement, the Backup Servicer may, in its discretion, appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established financial institution as the successor to the Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer hereunder. As compensation, any Successor Servicer (including, without limitation, the Administrative Agent) so appointed shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee, including, without limitation, Transition Expenses. The Backup Servicer and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. No appointment of a successor to the Servicer hereunder shall be effective until written notice of such proposed appointment shall have been provided by the Backup Servicer to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender and the Backup Servicer shall have consented thereto. The Backup Servicer shall not resign as Servicer until a Successor Servicer has been appointed and accepted such appointment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the Backup Servicer or Successor Servicer be liable for any Servicing Fee or for any differential in the amount of the Servicing Fee paid hereunder and the amount necessary to induce any Successor Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for by this Agreement.

(g) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, any successor Servicer is authorized to accept and rely on all of the accounting, records (including computer records) and work of the prior Servicer relating to the Receivables (collectively, the “Predecessor Servicer Work Product”) without any audit or other examination thereof, and such successor Servicer shall have no duty, responsibility, obligation or liability for the acts and omissions of the prior Servicer. If any error, inaccuracy, omission or incorrect or non-standard practice or procedure (collectively, “Errors”) exists in any Predecessor Servicer Work Product and such Errors make it materially more difficult to service or should cause or materially contribute to the successor Servicer making or continuing any Errors (collectively, “Continued Errors”), such successor Servicer shall have no duty, responsibility, obligation or liability for such Continued Errors; provided that such successor Servicer agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent further Continued Errors. In the event that the successor Servicer becomes aware of Errors or Continued Errors, it shall, with the prior consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, use commercially reasonable efforts to reconstruct and reconcile such data as is commercially reasonable to correct such Errors and Continued Errors and to prevent future Continued Errors. Such successor Servicer shall be entitled to recover its costs thereby expended in accordance with Section 2.6.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.13, promptly following delivery of a Servicer Termination Notice but prior to the appointment of the Backup Servicer as successor Servicer or any other Person as Successor Servicer pursuant to clause (a) above, the Administrative Agent shall notify Fair of such receipt, and, if the Fair Servicing Condition is satisfied, Fair may elect to be appointed as Successor Servicer hereunder by written notice to the Administrative Agent to such effect within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such Servicer Termination Notice.

(i) At any time prior to the occurrence of the Termination Date, upon 90 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the Servicer and the Backup Servicer, if the Fair Servicing Condition is satisfied, CLST may terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer as Servicer under this Agreement (other than fees or expenses owed to the Servicer which have accrued or been incurred prior to the delivery of such notice) and appoint itself as successor Servicer hereunder.

The Administrative Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, shall, at the sole expense of the Borrower, (i) execute such instruments of release in favor of the Borrower with respect to the portion of the Collateral to be released from the Lien of this Agreement as the Borrower may reasonably request (in recordable form if necessary), (ii) deliver any portion of the Collateral to be released from the Lien of this Agreement in its possession to the Borrower and (iii) otherwise take such actions, and cause or permit the Collateral Custodian to take such actions, as are necessary and appropriate to release the Lien of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties on the portion of the Collateral to be released and deliver to the Borrower such portion of the Collateral to be released to the Borrower.

Section 9.5. Waiver of Certain Laws.

The Borrower and the Servicer each agree, to the full extent that it may lawfully so agree, that neither it nor anyone claiming through or under it will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or redemption law now or hereafter in force in any locality where any Collateral may be situated in order to prevent, hinder or delay the enforcement or foreclosure of this Agreement or any Transaction Document, or the absolute sale of any of the Collateral or any part thereof, or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereof, and each of the Borrower and the Servicer, for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under it, hereby waives, to the full extent that it may be lawful so to do, the benefit of all such laws, and any and all right to

(d) The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 11.1 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer, Successor Servicer or the Collateral Custodian and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding the above provisions of this Section 11.1, nothing in this Section shall be construed to require the Borrower to provide any indemnification under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents for any damages, losses, claims, liabilities and related costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements arising out of or in connection with credit losses with respect to any of the Receivables or any Related Security or the diminution in market value of the Collateral.

(f) If any Indemnified Party receives any Indemnified Amount from the Borrower and is subsequently reimbursed for such amounts by another party, such Indemnified Party hereby agrees to promptly reimburse the Borrower for such reimbursed amounts.

Section 11.2. Indemnities by the Servicer.

(a) Without limiting any other rights that any such Person may have hereunder or under Applicable Law, the Servicer hereby agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Party, forthwith on demand, from and against any and all Indemnified Amounts awarded against or incurred by any such Indemnified Party by reason of any acts or omissions of the Servicer (other than with respect to disputes among Indemnified Parties), including, but not limited to (i) any representation or warranty made by the Servicer under or in connection with any Transaction Document, any Servicing Report, Servicer’s Certificate or any other information or report delivered by or on behalf of the Servicer pursuant hereto, which shall have been false, incorrect or misleading in any respect when made or deemed made, (ii) the failure by the Servicer to comply with any Applicable Law, (iii) the failure of the Servicer to comply with its covenants under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, or (iv) any litigation, proceedings or investigation against the Servicer (other than as related to acts of bad faith, breach of contract, negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, the Secured Parties or the Collateral Custodian).

(b) Any amounts subject to the indemnification provisions of this Section 11.2 shall be paid by the Servicer to the Indemnified Party within ten (10) Business Days following such Person’s written demand (setting forth the basis for such Indemnified Amounts in reasonable detail) therefor to the Servicer.

ARTICLE XII

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 12.1. The Administrative Agent.

(a) Appointment. Each Secured Party hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent as its agent and bailee for purposes of perfection pursuant to the applicable UCC and hereby further authorizes the Administrative Agent to appoint additional agents and bailees to act on its behalf and for the benefit of each Secured Party. Each Secured Party further authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In furtherance, and without limiting the generality, of the foregoing, each Secured Party hereby appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent to execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action that the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or appropriate or that a Secured Party may reasonably request in order to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the security interests granted by the Borrower hereunder, or to enable any of them to exercise or enforce any of their respective rights hereunder, including, without limitation, the execution by the Administrative Agent as secured party/assignee of such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto or assignments thereof, relative to all or any of the Collateral now existing or hereafter arising, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or appropriate for the purposes stated hereinabove. The Lenders may direct the Administrative Agent to take any such incidental action hereunder. With respect to other actions which are incidental to the actions specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any such incidental action hereunder, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting) upon the direction of the Required Lenders; provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any

action hereunder if the taking of such action, in the reasonable determination of the Administrative Agent, shall be in violation of any Applicable Law or contrary to any provision of this Agreement or shall expose the Administrative Agent to liability hereunder or otherwise. In the event the Administrative Agent requests the consent of a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions and the Administrative Agent does not receive a consent (either positive or negative) from such Person within ten Business Days of such Person’s receipt of such request, then such Lender shall be deemed to have declined to consent to the relevant action.

(b) Standard of Care. The Administrative Agent shall exercise such rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

(c) Administrative Agent’s Reliance, Etc. With respect to the Lenders, neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them as Administrative Agent under or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: (i) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower or the Servicer), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (ii) makes no warranty or representation and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement; (iii) shall not have any duty to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents on the part of the Borrower or the Servicer or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of the Borrower or the Servicer; (iv) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any of the other Transaction Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; and (v) shall incur no liability to any Lender under or in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents by acting upon any notice (including notice by telephone), consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by facsimile) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.

(d) Credit Decision with Respect to the Administrative Agent. Each Secured Party acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, or any of the Administrative Agent’s Affiliates, and based upon such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own evaluation and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party. Each Secured Party also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, or any of the Administrative Agent’s Affiliates, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

(e) Indemnification of the Administrative Agent. Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower or the initial

Servicer), ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent hereunder or thereunder; provided that the Lenders shall not be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent, ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, promptly upon demand for any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, to the extent that such expenses are incurred in the interests of or otherwise in respect of the Lenders hereunder and/or thereunder and to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower or the Servicer.

(f) Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time, effective upon the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided below, by giving at least ten (10) Business Days written notice thereof to each Lender and the Borrower and may be removed at any time with cause by the Lenders acting jointly. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Lenders acting jointly shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Each Lender agrees that it shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its approval of the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent. If no such successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the removal of the retiring Administrative Agent, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Secured Parties, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which successor Administrative Agent shall be either (i) a commercial bank or other financial institution organized under the laws of the United States or of any state thereof and have a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000 or (ii) an Affiliate of such a bank or financial institution. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XII shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

(g) Payments by the Administrative Agent. Unless specifically allocated to a specific Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, all amounts received by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders shall be paid by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders in accordance with their related Pro Rata Shares, on the Business Day received by the Administrative Agent, unless such amounts are received after 12:00 noon on such Business Day, in which case the Administrative Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to pay such amounts to

each Lender on such Business Day, but, in any event, shall pay such amounts to such Lenders not later than the following Business Day.

If any Secured Party, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it with respect to any portion of the Aggregate Unpaids owing to such Secured Party (other than payments received pursuant to Article XI) in a greater proportion than that received by any other Secured Party, such Secured Party agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase for cash without recourse or warranty a portion of the Aggregate Unpaids held by the other Secured Parties so that after such purchase each Secured Party will hold its ratable proportion of the Aggregate Unpaids; provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Secured Party, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

November 10, 2008

THIS NOTE (THE “NOTE”) HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE “SECURITIES ACT”). NEITHER THIS NOTE NOR ANY PORTION HEREOF MAY BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REGISTRATION PROVISIONS OF THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION PROVISIONS.

THIS NOTE IS NOT PERMITTED TO BE TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, EXCHANGED OR OTHERWISE PLEDGED OR CONVEYED EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT REFERRED TO HEREIN.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, FCC Investment Trust I, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Borrower”), promises to pay to Fortress Credit Co LLC, as the administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), on behalf of the Lenders, or their respective assigns, the principal sum of THIRTY FOUR MILLION, EIGHT HUNDRED NINETY-ONE THOUSAND, NINE HUNDRED SEVENTY-SEVEN DOLLARS AND NINETY-SEVEN CENTS ($34,891,977.97) (the “Loan”) made by the Lenders to the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement (as defined below), as set forth on the attached Schedule, on the dates specified in the Credit Agreement, and to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loan on each day that such unpaid principal amount is outstanding, at the Interest Rate related to such Loan as provided in the Credit Agreement, on each Payment Date and each other date specified in the Credit Agreement.

This Note is issued pursuant to the Credit Agreement, dated as of November 10, 2008 (as amended, modified, supplemented or restated from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among FCC Finance, LLC, as the servicer (in such capacity, the “Servicer”), the Borrower, Fortress Credit Co LLC, as a Lender and as the Administrative Agent, Lyon Financial Services, Inc. (d/b/a U.S. Bank Portfolio Services), as the backup servicer (in such capacity, the “Backup Servicer”) and U.S. Bank National Association, as the collateral custodian (in such capacity, the “Collateral Custodian”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings provided in the Credit Agreement.

Notwithstanding any other provisions contained in this Note, if at any time the rate of interest payable by the Borrower under this Note, when combined with any and all other charges provided for in this Note, in the Credit Agreement or in any other document (to the extent such other charges would constitute interest for the purpose of any applicable law limiting interest that may be charged on this Note), exceeds the highest rate of interest permissible under applicable law (the “Maximum Lawful Rate”), then so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be exceeded, the rate of interest under this Note shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate. If at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable under this Note is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, the Borrower shall continue to pay interest under this Note at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest paid by the Borrower is equal to the total interest that would

have been paid had Applicable Law not limited the interest rate payable under this Note. In no event shall the total interest received by the Lenders under this Note exceed the amount which the Lenders could lawfully have received had the interest due under this Note been calculated since the date of this Note at the Maximum Lawful Rate.

Payments of the principal of, and interest on, the Loan represented by this Note shall be made by or on behalf of the Borrower to the holder hereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds in the manner and at the address specified for such purpose as provided in the Credit Agreement, or in such manner or at such other address as the holder of this Note shall have specified in writing to the Borrower for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of this Note or the making of any notation on this Note.

If any payment under this Note falls due on a day that is not a Business Day, then such due date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest shall be payable on any principal so extended at the applicable Interest Rate.

On or after the declaration or occurrence of the Termination Date, all amounts due under the Credit Agreement shall bear interest at a rate per annum that is equal to the Default Rate, in each case from the date of such non-payment to (but excluding) the date such amount is paid in full.

Except as provided in the Credit Agreement, the Borrower expressly waives presentment, demand, diligence, protest and all notices of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Note.

All amounts evidenced by this Note, the Lenders’ Loan and all payments of the principal hereof and the respective dates and maturity dates thereof shall be endorsed by the Administrative Agent, on the schedule attached hereto and made a part hereof or on a continuation thereof, which shall be attached hereto and made a part hereof; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent to make such a notation shall not in any way limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Note as provided in the Credit Agreement.

This Note is secured by the security interests granted pursuant to Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement. The holder of this Note is entitled to the benefits of the Credit Agreement and may enforce the agreements of the Borrower contained in the Credit Agreement and exercise the remedies provided for by, or otherwise available in respect of, the Credit Agreement, all in accordance with, and subject to the restrictions contained in, the terms of the Credit Agreement. If an Event of Default shall occur (unless waived in writing by the Required Lenders), the unpaid balance of the principal of the Loan, together with accrued interest thereon, may be declared, and become, due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Credit Agreement.

The Borrower, the Servicer, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Backup Servicer and the Collateral Custodian each intend, for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes only, that this Note be evidence of indebtedness of the Borrower secured by the Collateral.

This Note is the “Note” referred to in Section 2.1 of the Credit Agreement and represents a fractional undivided ownership interest in the Collateral to the extent provided in the Credit

Agreement. This Note shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York.

demand, collect, give acquittances and receipts for, take possession of, or endorse and receive payment of, any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances, or other instruments for the payment of moneys due in respect of the Collateral; (b) to the extent related to the Collateral and the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, pay or discharge any taxes, Liens, or other encumbrances levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral; (c) to the extent related to the Collateral and the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against FCC Finance, LLC with respect to the Collateral if FCC Finance, LLC does not defend such suit, action or proceeding or if Attorney reasonably believes that it is not pursuing such defense in a manner that will maximize the recovery to Attorney with respect to the Collateral, and settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action, or proceeding described above and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as Attorney may deem appropriate; (d) file or prosecute any claim, litigation, suit or proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction or before any arbitrator, or take any other action otherwise deemed appropriate by Attorney for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due in respect of the Collateral to FCC Finance, LLC with respect to the Collateral whenever payable and to enforce any other right in respect of the Collateral; (e) sell, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to, or otherwise deal with the Collateral, and execute, in connection with such sale or action, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer in connection therewith; (f) to give any necessary receipts or acquittance for amounts collected or received under the Credit Agreement; (g) to make all necessary transfers of the Collateral in connection with any such sale or other disposition made pursuant to the Credit Agreement; (h) to execute and deliver for value all necessary or appropriate bills of sale, assignments and other instruments in connection with any such sale or other disposition of the Collateral, FCC Finance, LLC hereby ratifying and confirming all that such Attorney (or any substitute) shall lawfully do or cause to be done hereunder and pursuant hereto; (i) to send such notification forms as the Attorney deems appropriate to give notice to Obligors of the Secured Parties’ interest in the Collateral; (j) to sign any agreements, orders or other documents in connection with or pursuant to any Transaction Document, in each case to the extent permitted under the Credit Agreement; and (k) to cause the certified public accountants then engaged by FCC Finance, LLC to prepare and deliver to the Attorney at any time and from time to time, promptly upon Attorney’s request, any reports required to be prepared by or on behalf of FCC Finance, LLC under the Transaction Documents, all as though Attorney were the absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes, and to do, at Attorney’s option and FCC Finance, LLC’s expense, at any time or from time to time, all acts and other things that Attorney reasonably deems necessary to perfect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Liens of the Administrative Agent as agent for the Secured Parties thereon (including without limitation the filing of UCC financing statements and continuation statements), all as fully and effectively as FCC Finance, LLC might do. FCC Finance, LLC hereby ratifies, to the extent permitted by law, all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.

Section 1 - EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

FCC Finance LLC (hereafter “FCC” or “the Company”) sources loans originated by home improvement contractors throughout the United States. It is the policy of FCC to source loans in compliance with all applicable local, state and federal laws as may be in force or adopted. Acquisitions are also compliant with company underwriting guidelines as adopted or amended by management. The company is currently purchasing both secured and unsecured loans in thirty-five (35) states and on an unsecured program in five (5) states.

Loans sourced are serviced on behalf of FCC Investment Trust IV. The policies and procedures contained herein are adopted or amended by Senior Management to create a sound business environment and manage risk when processing, sourcing and servicing loan portfolios.

Management has been successful in implementing a “Proof, Check, and Balance” system whereby workflow passes and returns between departments continuously to improve quality control and better utilize personnel. All policies and procedures must be met before a loan is sourced inclusive of a tape-recorded interview with the borrower prior to any contractor check disbursement.

FCC Finance LLC takes a firm position to insure that all employees of the company are committed to the highest standards of professionalism and work ethics. Contractors are thoroughly investigated prior to purchasing their loan receivables and annual reviews are performed to monitor continued compliance.

It is the goal of FCC to build and service a high yield, performing portfolio for maximum profit. Compliance with the policies and procedures contained in this manual are the cornerstone to achieving this goal. The policies and procedures are reviewed and updated as needed.

Schedule V

Section 2 - MARKETING

The company markets it products by maintaining high visibility in the home improvement lending industry. The company seeks business relationships with quality contractors who exercise the highest standards of professionalism and business ethics. FCC rigorously investigates every business relationship before sourcing loan originations. Management implements all marketing strategies.

Senior Management of the company attend Trade Shows and maintain memberships in various affiliations to maintain this visibility. The company is currently a member of NARI (National Association of the Remodeling Industry) both nationally & locally in Dallas, Texas.

The company exhibits in at least one national trade show annually and either sponsors or co-sponsors regional events or seminars as management may determine beneficial to both FCC marketing efforts and the industry. The company also maintains a regional sales representative in Pennsylvania to facilitate contractors in one of the most concentrated home improvement areas of the country.

POLICY — All associations, trade show participation, sponsorships and marketing efforts of any type must be approved and orchestrated with Senior Management. Any publications, marketing materials or efforts must be approved by Executive and Senior Management.

Section 3 - CONTRACTOR RELATIONS

POLICY - Contractors who submit customer applications and originate loans offered to FCC for sourcing must meet minimum requirements as set forth by Senior Management. As standard operating procedure contractors should meet the following guidelines.

1. Two-years in business.

2. Principal(s) can not have filed personal bankruptcy during the last 5-years.

3. Principal(s) personal credit bureaus must reflect no major derogatory credit for at least (3-years) prior to application.

4. Dealer/Contractor must have at least two (2) verifiable trade/supplier references.

5. Business checking account must have an average balance history of sufficient liquidity. Excessive overdraft activity will be cause for denial of the dealer application.

6. In states where licenses are required for the contractor to conduct business, FCC must verify that such licenses are in place.

7. A satisfactory report must be received from the nearest Better Business Bureau agency. In the event of no history with the Better Business Bureau, the State Attorneys General Office will be accessed for their experience with the contractor.

Senior Management may approve contractors meeting minimum requirements, but exceptions will require presentation of the completed Dealer/Contractor file with documentation as to the exception to the company President for approval.

Once FCC approves a Dealer/Contractor, the file is scheduled for annual review or more frequently as determined by the manager. All business relations are monitored inclusive of service complaint resolutions and portfolio performance. Exception approvals require closer monitoring and more frequent reviews.

PROCEDURE — The following events and documentation must be completed before setting up a new Dealer/Contractor relationship.

A. Submission - The Dealer/Contractor must submit a completed package for investigation and consideration. The following items constitute a completed package.

1. Dealer/Contractor Application and Continuous Buy Sell Agreement fully completed and initialed by a principal on each page. (Section 16 Exhibit A)

2. Copy of the Articles of Incorporation (if applicable) for the dealer making application.

3. Most recent Financial Statement or recent personal tax return for sole proprietorships

4. Copies of State Licenses (if applicable)

5. Copy of Work Order and Notice of Right To Cancel provided to consumers

6. Literature/Brochures/Warranties on products/services sold

B. Processing/Investigation

1. Log the company into the Excel New Dealer File Log spreadsheet.

2. Review APPRO Channels Maintenance to determine any previous FCC experience with the dealer. If none, assign a new dealer number and enter into the system with an Agreement Status of “Pending”. Enter the dealer number into the Excel spreadsheet also. If the dealer was previously approved with FCC we will use the existing APPRO Channel and dealer number. Change the status to “Pending”, update address, phone numbers, etc., and enter the dealer number into the Excel spreadsheet.

3. Determine if the Dealer/Contractor meets minimum FCC guidelines. This initial review should reveal if the file is incomplete, or if documents are not executed properly. At such time, the contractor should be contacted and informed of the status.

4. Once the file has been initially reviewed, investigation should commence unless the review reveals that minimum guidelines are not met. If guidelines are not met the investigation should cease until the manager reviews the file.

5. Call the business phone number provided on the Dealer Application to determine if the phone is answered in the business name. Call the principal(s) home phone number(s) provided to determine that they are working numbers. Verify that numbers are listed on phone directory websites. Notate results on New Dealer Application Checklist. (Section 16 Exhibit B)

6. Clear the company with the Better Business Bureau (web site or phone) and document if in good standing or with outstanding complaints. If no record with the Better Business Bureau, the Attorneys General office for all states the contractor does business in will be contacted for their experience with the contractor. Notate results on New Dealer Application Checklist.

7. Complete the Bank Reference verification by phone or fax. (Section 16 Exhibit C) The Authorization to Release Information Form is usually required for this step.

8. Contact the Supplier/Trade References and obtain a report of their history with the company and/or principal(s).

9. Contact the various Licensing Departments (if applicable) and verify their status and/or history with the company and expiration date of said license.

10. Review articles of incorporation and validate the dealer’s current status with the secretary of state where they are organized.

11. Review the dealer’s financial statements to determine solvency and sufficient volume to warrant approval by FCC.

12. Obtain credit reports for all principals / owners of the dealer and review to ensure creditworthiness complies with FCC standards.

13. Review the dealer’s work order / contract to determine it contains an acceptable “Right to Cancel” clause as required by the FTC ruling.

14. Sign the processing checklist and prepare the package in “Submission Checklist Order” (Section 16 Exhibit D) then deliver the package to the Manager for review.

C. Underwriting — Approval or Declination

1. Senior management will review the completed file and render a decision. If the Manager feels there are “redeeming qualities on a company that does not meet minimum requirements”, the file should be documented as to the reason(s) for approval and submitted to President for review.

2. The Manager will document the file Approved or Declined. In rare instances, the file could remain in a “Pending” status if additional information or investigation is required. Once the decision is rendered and properly documented, the file will be returned for further data input.

3. If approved, change the dealer Agreement Status in the APPRO Channel to “Approved” and enter the states approved in the Channel Notes field. Ensure that appropriate contact names, phone numbers, FAX numbers, and e mail addresses are entered. If the application is declined change the Agreement Status to “Declined” and enter notes in the Channel Notes field with reasons.

4. Print and fax to the Dealer/Contractor the approval letter (Section 16 Exhibit E) or denial letter (Section 16 Exhibit F) signed by senior management. Attach the “fax confirmation” with a copy of the decision to the left-hand side of the dealer file. Mail the original decision letter to the Dealer/Contractor. If approved a photocopy of the executed buy sell agreement is enclosed with the approval letter along with New Dealer forms. (Section 16 Exhibit G)

5. Dealer files are then labeled Inactive/Denied and Active/Approved and filed accordingly after they are scanned into the dealer imaging system.

D. Renewal (Update) Investigation

1. The credit department generates a month end report (Section 16 Exhibit H) which lists upcoming renewal investigations for the following month.

2. The tracking system is used to determine volume (amount of business received) for the past six-months. If there is no activity, the APPRO channel will be updated to reflect “inactive”. An inactive letter is prepared and forwarded to the dealer (Section 16 Exhibit I). The file will only be reinvestigated if the contractor sends new business.

3. All other approved files will require the status field to reflect “Update” and the files go into the Update filing cabinet for subsequent processing.

4. Employees conducting the reinvestigation first verify that the Continuous Buy Sell Agreement in the file is the most recent (12/00) version. Using the “Dealer Update Checklist” (Section 16 Exhibit J) the re-investigation is conducted. This investigation requires everything that was done in the original investigation when the dealer was first approved.

5. Additional requirements during re-investigation include review of dealer service complaints and new business activity.

Once the investigation is complete and the reports are obtained, the package is submitted to the Manager for approval or denial of dealership.

E. Service Complaints

1. When a valid service complaint is received, the information is entered in the “Service Complaint Log” (Section 16 Exhibit K) to open and track the complaint.

2. The complaint is documented by preparing the “Service Complaint Worksheet”. (Section 16 Exhibit L) All issues should be documented with clear and concise comments. When addressing the issues with the customer, verify that each issue relates to work described on the dealer’s contract or work order.

3. The customer is informed that “verbal agreements” (if any) are outside the scope of issues addressed by FCC. The customer will then be advised that FCC will contact the contractor/dealer who in turn should contact the customer regarding resolution of their complaint(s). The customer is instructed to contact FCC again after contact is made with contractor/dealer or in the event that the contractor fails to respond in a reasonable amount of time.

4. Contact the dealer and advise them of the customer(s) issues and request that the dealer contact customer(s). Notate these series of events on the worksheet and document a “Hold Date” determined by the conversations with both dealer and customer. The “Hold Date” should also be entered in the Service Complaint Log. Management will review open service complaints and related action taken, on a weekly basis.

5. All communications with the customer and the dealer/contractor must be documented on the worksheet. If the complaint is not brought to an amicable conclusion within a reasonable amount of time, the customer file and worksheet should be submitted to a supervisor. Extensive delays or lack of communication by the dealer/contractor may necessitate further action being taken by FCC Management.

6. Once the customer acknowledges satisfaction with the repairs, the complaint is closed and a written acknowledgment (Section 16 Exhibit M) is mailed to the customer to sign and return. A copy of this letter is attached to the worksheet to be filed. Customer(s) failure to return the written satisfaction form is not cause for FCC to keep the complaint open.

7. Should the contractor fail, or refuse, to satisfy a substantiated complaint the dealership is terminated.

Section 4 - UNDERWRITING

POLICY — FCC maintains full compliance with ECOA (Federal Equal Credit Opportunity Act) and RESPA (Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act). The company sources customer applications from home improvement dealers/contractors to finance their goods and/or services. All underwriting takes place in the corporate office. The consumer is provided with the required notification of the credit decision as outlined in the two acts aforementioned.

In addition to legal compliance, FCC requires its employees to evaluate credit applications based on the “Company Products and Underwriting Guidelines” as published (Section 16 Exhibit Z). The evaluation will include but is not limited to credit bureau reports, calculation of debt ratio and the calculation of loan to value (LTV) on the subject property being improved.

PROCEDURE — The following takes place on all credit applications processed by FCC.

A. Data Entry

1. When the credit application is received it is audited to ensure the application is signed and dated by the applicant(s) or if received from an approved contractor/dealer with the exception of signature on file. It is FCC’s practice not to process credit applications that are over sixty days old. Credit Applications over sixty days old must be updated by the contractor or approved by the Senior Underwriter to process. The credit application is also reviewed to ensure that the applicant resides in a state where FCC purchases receivables, minimum income requirements, and that the information on the credit application is sufficient to properly process the application. In the event the credit application is unable to be processed, due to stale dating or missing information, the application will be “Pended” and the dealer notified. In the event the credit application is denied prior to accessing the applicants credit bureau report, the dealer is notified however no “Statement of Credit Denial” (Section 16 Exhibit O) is required to be mailed to the applicant. If the credit application is satisfactory, the processor will continue with the data input.

2. Entering the credit application into the “front end system” commences processing of all applications. If the application contains two or more borrowers, the applicant evidencing the highest income will be the primary applicant and processed accordingly. If the application is missing required information, it is logged into the system as pended, the dealer notified of the reason by the Pending Status Sheet, and the credit application filed accordingly. If the application is satisfactory and data input completed in the “front end system” a credit report will then be accessed by the processor.

3. A credit bureau report is obtained on each applicant (joint report if applicants disclose they are married). The primary credit bureau service used by FCC is Trans Union. If the Trans Union report is inconclusive Equifax and/or Experian reports will be accessed. When the credit bureau report is printed, it is matched to the corresponding credit application and given to the underwriter for analysis.

4. The underwriter analyzes the credit history contained on the credit bureau report. If the information does not meet FCC guidelines, the application is notated as a Credit Denial and a general reason notated. Loan terms, appropriate interest rate for the month in which the application was taken, and state information are input. Debts are analyzed by reviewing the credit application for debt disclosed on the application and debts contained in the credit report. If income information (paystubs) is supplied with the credit application, it is analyzed and calculated then input in the APPRO system. In the event income information is not supplied, the income is taken from the stated amount on the credit application. Completion of the debt ratio analysis is performed by the APPRO system and reviewed by the underwriter.

If the Underwriter determines the application can be purchased, loan stipulations are added in the APPRO system and a Commitment Letter (Section 16 Exhibit Q) is generated.

The package is now assembled in the following order:

a) Approval Sheet

b) Credit application

c) Credit bureau report(s)

d) Income verification (pay-stubs)

e) Dealer work order/contract

The package is forwarded to the Processing department.

5. Approved applications are assigned an approval number, input as approved in the system and the conditional commitment letter is faxed to the dealer. Commitment letters have an expiration date of 60 or 90 days depending on the credit worthiness of the applicant and/or individual dealer/contractor agreement. Denied applications are input in the system, a statement of credit denial (Section 16 Exhibit O) is prepared and faxed to the dealer. Pending applications are handled in the same fashion utilizing the pending sheet previously described.

6. At the conclusion of the workday, the input processor will prepare Good Faith Estimates (in duplicate) (Section 16 Exhibit R) for all conditionally approved secured loan transactions. One copy is mailed to the applicant the next business day and the second copy is placed with the loan package prepared by the staff. Unsecured approvals do not require Good Faith Estimates. Credit denials are copied or accessed from the system at the conclusion of the business day. The staff pulls the appropriate days denials and mails them.

Denied transactions are filed, numerically and by date. Pending applications are filed, awaiting response from the contractor. Loan

approval packages are forwarded to the appropriate department for further processing.

B. Pre-Approval Stipulation Clearance

1. Loan conditions/stipulations are forwarded to the appropriate processing department to finalize loan approval. Loan conditions can be approved and cleared by the processor however any condition not within the processor’s approval authority will be directed to the underwriter. During this process the underwriter may determine that the original pre-approval may no longer meet the purchase requirements. In such instances the underwriter will (1) add or change conditions to meet FCC guidelines, (2) Decline/cancel the conditional loan approval if it no longer meets approval criteria or (3) Pend the conditionally approved application until such time that additional information or verifications are received.

2. FCC delegates authority to underwriters and processors (based upon tenure and experience) to sign off on pre-approval stipulations being processed. Acceptance/approval of loan stipulations, are notated in the APPRO system.

3. After review, the senior underwriter forwards the loan package to processing for system update of the file. The dealer will also be notified of any changes to the original approval at this time.

C. Interest Rate

1. FCC adjusts secured interest rates on a monthly basis. It is the policy of FCC to establish secured interest rates beneath the Federal Regulation Z, Section 32 disclosure requirement.

2. Once the calculations are compiled, a monthly FCC rate sheet is produced (Section 16 Exhibit U). It is the practice of FCC to fax the monthly rate sheet to contractors/dealers approximately one week prior to month end. Federal Law does not govern unsecured interest rates and FCC will establish this rate internally based on state requirements, risk and market conditions.

Section 5 - PROCESSING

POLICY — The Company employs loan processors to perform the verification requirements on all pre-approved customer applications after the submitting dealer/contractor advises FCC to begin processing. The processor reviews the file documents and conducts mortgage, employment and insurance verifications along with any specific stipulations (requirements) that the Underwriter designated on the Pre-Approval Commitment Letter. The title report is also examined when received by Loan Processor.

PROCEDURE — The following procedures must be completed for compliance with approval guidelines.

A. Verification of Mortgages

1. The processor reviews the credit application, credit report, debt ratio, and the title report, to determine who holds senior liens on the subject property. The senior lien(s) is verified by the most expedient method available (i.e. credit bureau report, direct check or fax authorization respectively). FCC requires at minimum the loan balance, monthly payment amount, next due date and date last payment was received to be verified. Any verification that reveals the senior lien(s) status is questionable, must be returned to the Pre-Approval Underwriter or processing manager for review.

2. All information obtained is verified on the Mortgage Verification (Section 16 Exhibits V) and on the Processing Notification (Section 16 Exhibit W) as well as in the APPRO System.

B. Verification of Employment and Income

1. The borrower(s) employment is verified verbally or in writing inclusive of date of hire, current position, income specifics (if released) and the name/title of person who provided the information. If the approval file qualifies under the maximizer program, then only verification of customer’s employment is necessary.

2. It is the processor’s responsibility to calculate the debt ratio based on the income verified as opposed to borrower(s) income submitted at time application was provided by the dealer/contractor. The processor will document the method of calculation to comply with instructions provided in Underwriting Guidelines (Section 16 Exhibit Z).

3. The processor must notify the dealer/contractor if the income verified as opposed to the income submitted is insufficient and is returned to underwriting for review.

4. The file must also return to the underwriter if time on job verified is substantially less than stated on the credit application. A two-year history is required unless otherwise waived by an underwriter.

5. All information verified must be documented on the appropriate Employment Verification (Section 16 Exhibit X) and on the Processing Notification as well as in the APPRO System.

C. Verification of Property Insurance

1. The insurance coverage on the property to secure the loan must be verified. This can be accomplished verbally or in writing to ensure there is sufficient coverage.

2. All information verified must be documented on the Verification of Insurance (Section 16 Exhibit Y).

D. Title Report Review and Clearance

1. The title report is reviewed as soon as it is received by FCC to ensure that the subject property is clear of all encumbrances (other than those disclosed on the Pre-Approval). This is also compared to the Pre-Approval Commitment Letter.

2. The processor will notify the dealer/contractor if the borrower(s) have outstanding deficiencies of title (i.e. tax liens, judgment(s) or other liens) that are not acceptable to FCC. Judgments are investigated by processor; via Title Company that provided title or county clerk’s office. In the event the processor is unable to clear stipulations, the dealer/contractor is then notified that the customer must provide the necessary item(s).

3. The processor will take the file back to Underwriting for review of any deficiencies. If an exception is made, the Underwriter will notate the Audit Exception Worksheet (Section 16 Exhibit AA).

4. All pertinent information is documented in writing and faxed to the submitting dealer/contractor as necessary.

5. Outstanding liens discovered that must be cleared will be provided to the dealer/contractor who in turn will give the information to the borrower(s). In this manner, the borrower(s) have the opportunity to clear the lien by paying it off, then supplying the proof of this occurrence to the dealer/contractor who in turn will provide FCC with this proof. FCC will verify the information for accuracy.

6. On occasion, a lien appears on title that does not pertain to the subject borrower(s) or property. In this instance, FCC requires a “Non- Identity Affidavit” be completed, executed by the borrower(s), notarized and submitted to them for recordation. The processor will ensure the form is properly completed, when required and received before funding the loan.

E. Clearing Conditions and Notification

1. The processor is responsible for ensuring that all conditions on the Pre-Approval Commitment Letter are met. This should be done prior to the file being submitted for pre-audit and/or final processing. If the processor receives documentation from the dealer/contractor to clear a condition that does not meet FCC acceptance, the processor should advise the dealer/contractor. Once alternative proof is received the file should then be returned to the Pre-Approval Underwriter for consideration and acceptance.

2. It is the responsibility of the processor to xxxx within the APPRO System when conditions are met.

F. Pre-Audit File Follow-up

1. All information received from contractor/dealer to clear outstanding stipulations on pre-audited files, are processed by the initial processor who handled the file in the processing stage.

2. Once stipulations are cleared, the processor will notify contractor/dealer via fax, phone or e-mail.

3. The processor is responsible for documenting the appropriate report to reflect all cleared stipulations on pre-audit files.

Section 6 - DOCUMENT PREPARATION

POLICY — FCC provides loan document preparation to its dealer/contractors. This service is initiated once the dealer/contractor notifies FCC by fax that they are ready to have loan documents prepared and signed. FCC orders title reports in behalf of dealer/contractor for secured loans, reviews the title report on receipt and then prepares the loan documents.

PROCEDURE — The following procedures are followed to prepare loan documentation:

A. Receipt of Request to Order Title and Prepare/Ship Documents

1. The dealer/contractor faxes a Services Request Form (Section 16 Exhibit CC) indicating their request for FCC to order title and/or prepare loan documents. Unless arrangements have been made with the dealer to approve their Title Company of choice, FCC places the order through an approved title agency using the dealer/contractor account.

2. After the title report is reviewed and cleared by FCC in accordance with Title Review form (Section 16 Exhibit DD), the documents are drawn, logged and shipped to the dealer/contractor as ordered.

B. Title Company Policy and Procedure

1. FCC orders title reports (Section 16 Exhibit EE) from approved title companies capable of providing service in the states where FCC sources business. Completed reports are to be faxed directly to FCC. FCC will in turn notify the dealer/contractor of outstanding deficiencies, if any, in accordance with “Title Report Review”.

2. FCC will allow the dealer/contractor to order title reports from a Title Company of their choice provided they adhere to the following requirements:

a) Submit E & O Policy in which the title company must be named, coverage must be current, and the amount of coverage must be acceptable to FCC. If accepted, the title company and their location will be added to the FCC “Approved Title Companies” list.

b) The “Approved Title Companies” log (Section 16 Exhibit FF) must be reviewed monthly to insure that expiring O&E policies are updated with a current declaration page.

c) The title company must fax a copy of the title directly to FCC for review and clearance prior to source. However, to expedite the preparation and shipping of documents, the dealer/contractor may fax a copy of the title to FCC.

C. Document Preparation

1. Loan documents are prepared using the Company software and information obtained from the pre-approval file documents consisting of the commitment letter, credit application, work order and the title report. The terms and amount of disbursements come from the commitment

letter, work order and the “Public Record Research System” (recording fees).

2. Loan documents for unsecured loans are prepared and overnighted or emailed to the dealer the same day the commitment letter is faxed to the dealer, unless other arrangements have been made.

3. Documents for unsecured loans include the following:

a) Credit Application (Section 16 Exhibit GG)

b) Retail Installment Contract

c) Right to Cancel (Section 16 Exhibit HH)

d) Completion Certificate (Section 16 Exhibit II)

e) Phone Verification Form (Section 16 Exhibit JJ)

f) Verification of Homeowner Insurance (when proof of ownership is requested) (Section 16 Exhibit Y)

4. Documents for secured loans include the following:

a) Credit Application

b) Retail Installment Contract

d) Right to Cancel

e) Mortgage/Deed of Trust

f) Assignment (if required)

g) Verification of mortgage, insurance and employment

h) Authorization to Release Information

i) Completion Certificate

j) Phone Verification Form (remains in FCC file for internal use)

5. All documents listed will be prepared in accordance with each states requirements. The “Assignment” on the Mortgage or Deed of Trust (security instrument) will be used unless a specific county in that state requires alternative assignments as well as additional documents that must be used when filing a Mortgage or Deed of Trust for secured loans.

Section 7 - PRE-FUNDING AUDIT

POLICY — The task of Pre-Funding Audit is to ensure that each loan file is complete, uniformly organized, and all documents have been properly executed. In this manner, when the dealer/contractor starts a job they can be more reasonably assured the loan will be purchased after completion of the work.

This function expedites the funding process once the Completion Certificate is received for advance of the loan. The funding area may still have to review documentation, and update some of the verifications to assure compliance with FCC Underwriting Guidelines. This check and balance system requires that at least two employees review every loan file in its entirety prior to purchase.

PROCEDURE — The following events and/or requirements take place during completion of the Pre-Funding Audit.

A. Receipt Of Loan Package From Dealer/Contractor

1. The dealer/contractor sends the executed loan documents, including any additional conditions required. A Pre-Audit report is generated daily then disseminated to appropriate personnel.

2. The underwriting file is pulled and merged with the original loan documents. At this point the dealer file is opened to verify that the Dealer is Approved and Active, and that properly authorized individuals executed the assignment and other documentation on behalf of the Dealer/Contractor.

B. Auditing the Loan File

1. The documents are audited for accuracy and completion. Additionally they are reconciled with underwriting conditions (stipulations) and FCC Underwriting Guidelines (Section 16 Exhibit Z). Should the conditions stated on the Commitment Letter not be met satisfactorily, the file must return to Underwriting for review. A completed Contractors Auditing Checklist (Section 16 Exhibit MM) for secured loans or an Unsecured Auditing Checklist (Section 16 Exhibit NN) for unsecured loans, allow the file to proceed to the Funding Department. These forms must be completed down to the Cash Authorization line with the exception of numbers 23 & 24 on secured loans and numbers 16 & 17 on unsecured loans.

· Credit Application: Must be completed with all information including home phone numbers, work phone numbers, nearest relative with phone number and borrower(s) original signature(s). (Section 16 Exhibit GG)

· Loan-to-Value / Debt Ratio Analysis: The LTV will be recalculated using appraised value (or stated value when applicable) and the mortgage balance provided on the Mortgage Verification. The debt pad will be used to ensure that the processor has accurately entered the verified mortgage payment amount and verified income amounts.

· Retail Installment Contract: Must be completed with all information including borrower(s) name(s) and address, dealer name and address, correct date, accurate description of goods sold, down payment and amount of job from work order, original signatures, authorized assignment and accurate terms. Audit of this document shall also include re-verifying the figures in the Itemization of Amount Financed, payment schedule and all Federal Truth in Lending Disclosures. The pre-auditor or underwriting department will make the determination as to the best manner in which to rectify an error. Correction notices (Section 16 Exhibit OO) or return of documents to dealer/contractor for corrections, with customer(s) initials or reexecuted documents are some procedures used.

· Mortgage / Deed of Trust: This document will be filed to record our lien (the Security Instrument). The pre-auditor will verify the dollar amount of the transaction, legal description of the property securing the loan, borrower(s) names executed as they appear on title. The mortgage document must be notarized with state appropriate stamps and signatures as required.

· Assignment of Mortgage / Deed of Trust: The date on this document can not be the same as that on the Mortgage / Deed of Trust, and must be after the rescission period has ended. This document normally references the dollar amount on the Security Instrument, and the FCC database or actual Dealer File will be checked to verify that the person who executed the Assignment is authorized to do so. This document also must be notarized with state appropriate stamps and signatures as required.

· Completion Certificate: The document must be signed and dated by both the dealer/contractor and the borrower(s) after the job is completed. Faxed certificates are acceptable to fund with original to follow.

· Right to Cancel: The rescission must begin on the same date that the Retail Installment Contract is executed. The cancellation date must be at least 3 business days after the Retail Installment Contract date, and should exclude Sundays and federal holidays. A Right to Cancel form must be executed by all borrower(s) and each borrower must be provided with two copies at the time of execution. Thus, no more than two borrower(s) can execute the same Right to Cancel. Additional forms must be used in increments of two borrower(s) per form since it only provides sufficient copies for two individuals (4 copies per form). If form is improperly executed, pre-auditors will have new forms reexecuted, allowing an additional three days to properly rescind the transaction.

· HUD 1-A Settlement Statement: This document must be completed with all pertinent information inclusive of date, names, addresses, signatures, all fees and any other dollar amounts that are included in the transaction. Estimates are not acceptable, as this document is required to be a true itemization of all dollar amounts paid by the borrower. If transaction amounts change, the HUD 1-A must be corrected and re-executed by the borrower(s). P.O.C. items (paid outside of closing) that are paid by the borrower must also be disclosed.

· Credit Report: The report must be the complete original report.

· Good Faith Estimate: The audit should ensure that it was sent to the borrower within three days of receiving the credit application. The document is then checked for accuracy as to date, borrower(s) name(s) and address with reasonable fee estimates disclosed.

· Contractor Work Order: The document shall disclose an adequate description of the work and/or services being performed by the dealer/contractor, a date prior to or same as the Retail Installment Contract, amount of work, name(s), and address of the borrower(s) and the dealer/contractor as well as signature(s) of the borrower(s) and authorized signer for the dealer/contractor.

· Appraisal: Audited for accuracy and to ensure the data is a reasonable valuation. Comparisons should be within a similar time period and location. Sales should be within the past year (six months preferred).

· Debt Ratio / Loan to Value Analysis (Debt Pad): (Section 16 Exhibit P) The verified income, debt & payment amounts, superior mortgage balances and property values (appraised or stated) will be compared to the debt pad for accuracy.

· Title Report: The title report must be the original received directly from the Title Company or a fax that came directly from the Title Company. It is examined for name(s), conveyances, liens/judgments and other encumbrances. All necessary items must have been cleared or signed off as documented on the Title Report Review and Audit Exception Sheet. Reports are valid for 90-days.

· Verifications: Verifications of Mortgage, Employment and Property Insurance will be examined for authenticity, completeness and accuracy. Any additional direct verification (i.e. direct credit checks) will be reviewed with the same criteria.

C. Expired Commitments

1. The dealer/contractor is notified by fax or e-mail of any outstanding conditions and the package is filed until receipt of those items. All “Expired Commitments” (Section 16 Exhibit PP) are pulled weekly and a status report is faxed to the submitting dealer/contractor. If the dealer/contractor requests a recommitment or extension, the file is returned to Underwriting for consideration. The dealer/contractor is notified by fax of the decision and the file is processed by Data Entry if denied, or forwarded to Processing if re-approved. Once the file is recommitted or extended, it is then returned to the processors who re-execute verifications of employment, mortgage and homeowners insurance.

2. If the dealer notifies FCC to “cancel the Commitment”, the status field in the APPRO System is changed, and the file is handled accordingly.

Section 8 - FUNDING

POLICY — The Company delegates authority to the Funding Department to perform four primary functions before sourcing a loan from the dealer/contractor.

The functions required are:

1. Ensure that all verifications are current in accordance with the FCC guidelines. The department conducts re-verifications as is necessary.

2. Perform the commodity check by tape-recorded conversation with the borrower(s) verification that all work has been satisfactorily completed and the correctness of the contract(s).

3. Pull public search records and calculate all mortgage filing fees, tax and assignment fees for deduction from proceeds on secured loans.

4. Document the disbursement amounts for the Accounting Department to ensure the accurate purchase price is paid to the dealer/contractor.

The department is required to report inconsistencies or violations of Company Policy directly to Senior Management. This department is responsible for validation that the Company is sourcing a qualified loan receivable in compliance with FCC Guidelines.

PROCEDURE — The following operating procedures must be completed to accomplish these tasks.

A. Receipt of Completion Certificate and File Clearance

1. The dealer/contractor will advise FCC by one of these methods that the contracted work has been completed:

· The original completion certificate is received by FCC. (Section 16 Exhibit II)

· A completion certificate is faxed to FCC ..

· The dealer/contractor phone contacts the funding department and advises that the work is complete and the completion certificate is forthcoming via mail or overnight delivery service.

EXCEPTION: On occasion, Senior Management will establish and implement a special program with select dealer/contractors allowing funding prior to phone clearance. A list of these special program relationships is published by Senior Management as they are established. Any receivable sourced without telephone clearance is coded with a numerical code, causing it to remain in a presourced xxxxx until the telephone contact and clearance is completed.

2. The Funding Department obtains the file from Pre-Audit Department. All files are reviewed by the funding department prior to conducting the telephone clearance for the following:

· Mortgage Verification: senior liens must be current within FCC guidelines.

· Employment/Income Verification: per company guideline.

· Title Report: an update is requested from the title company or through the contractor, if the one in file is beyond 90 days.

· Credit Report: must be dated within the past 60 to 90 days prior to FCC sourcing the loan. Underwriting does have authority to make an exception on a case-by-case basis.

· Homeowners Insurance: Each file is reviewed for adequate insurance coverage.

· Any file that arrives in the funding department with outstanding stipulations as conditioned by underwriting at the time of approval must be cleared prior to funding (Section 16 Exhibit QQ) or must be taken to the Underwriting Department to approve any exception to requirements on the Commitment Letter and FCC Underwriting Guidelines (Section 16 Exhibit Z).

· Check all signatures on completion certificate. Compare signature(s) to other documents in file to make sure the signature is authentic. Verify that both the contractor and customer signed and dated the completion certificate. If signatures are questionable they are discussed with the contractor and their authenticity will be covered during the tape-recorded phone clearance.

· All expired commitments must be submitted to underwriting for re-commitment or extension. See Section 4 Underwriting for more details.

B. Phone Verification (Commodity Check)

1. After all requirements on the commitment are met, the borrower is contacted for telephone clearance. The Phone Verification (Section 16 Exhibit JJ) is conducted to determine if all work has been completed by the dealer/contractor in a satisfactory manner while ensuring that all required items on the form are documented during each recording.

· Tape Recording: each call will be taped after first obtaining verbal permission from the borrower(s).

· Identification of Borrower: it is essential to ensure we are speaking with one of the borrowers while performing the phone clearance. This is even more strategic if the borrower is calling inbound to FCC or when contacting them at their place of employment. The borrower is asked to recite personal information from their credit application for identity verification purposes.

· Improvements: clearly verify that all improvements, as specified on the work order, have been completed by the dealer/contractor on, or before, the date recorded on the completion certificate. Minor service issues are acceptable still allowing the loan to be sourced. Such issues shall be documented on the clearance form and the dealer/contractor is notified by telephone or fax and requested to address the borrower(s) concerns. (Section 16 Exhibit RR)

· Contract Terms: verify that the borrower is in agreement with the financial terms as stated on the Phone Verification Form and shown on the retail installment contract.

· If during the phone verification the customer indicates they may be paying with cash for the work, the taping is stopped immediately, the contractor is notified by fax (Section 16 Exhibit SS), or phone to pickup their funds. The file is cancelled in FCC computer system (Section 16 Exhibit TT), and the original documents are returned to the contractor (Section 16 Exhibit UU)

· Completion of Work and Miscellaneous: this portion of the verification requires seven “Yes” or “No” responses by the customer. The borrower should answer with a yes reply to the first six questions and no to the seventh question. If the interviewer detects hesitation or suspects that a problem exists, they should contact the dealer/contractor to help clarify the situation or notify their supervisor. The interviewer should also determine if the Credit Application (Section 16 Exhibit GG) contains the “nearest relative with phone number and customer email adress” information or obtain it if possible. (Section 16 Exhibit VV)

· First Payment Date: the first payment due date is established with the borrower during this interview in accordance with the retail installment contract and FCC policy. The borrower is advised that FCC will send them temporary payment coupons for their use until they receive their regular payment book.

2. The completed Phone Verification Form is now signed and made a part of the loan file. The phone clear is recorded by the Total Recall program. The recordings are then copied to a local drive and renamed by loan number. Weekly all phone clears are transferred to a network attached storage device by the IT department.

C. Completion of the Cash Authorization

1. The Cash Authorization section at the bottom of the Contractors Audit Checklist or Unsecured Auditing Checklist (Section 16 Exhibit MM) concludes the necessary authorizations to fund the contract. In addition to bearing a authorization signature and date the following information is completed:

· Amount Financed: taken from the Retail Installment Contract

· Discount: obtained from the Commitment Letter (if applicable).

· Acquisition Fee: obtained from the Commitment Letter (if applicable).

· Mortgage Filing Fee: obtained from the HUD 1-A Settlement Statement, and verified with the Public Research System so the correct amount is deducted for filing. (Section 16 Exhibit WW)

· Assignment Filing Fee: obtained from Public Research System the correct amount to deduct from the contractor/dealer to assign the mortgage or deed of trust to FCC.

· Forced Placed Insurance Premium: calculated by current rates provided by insurance company and management, if force placed insurance is necessary. (Section 16 Exhibit XX)

· Title fees obtained from the HUD 1-A Settlement Statement and not deducted except for a few dealers/contractors.

· Net check is obtained by subtracting all fees, discounts and insurance premiums, if applicable from the amount financed.

· The file goes to the Accounting Department from funding. They input the contract information into the computer system to process and remit the checks or wires from the cash authorization to the appropriate parties.

Section 9 - PACKAGING

POLICY — The department is responsible to prepare the loan file for collateral agent. One of the primary functions is the perfection of all liens. Additionally trailing documents are tracked and united with the appropriate loan file in a timely manner. These functions complete the loan package and provide the company with a properly documented asset for retention by investors.

PROCEDURE

A. Packaging Process and Creation of a Scanned Image of the Loan File

1. The Accounting Department delivers to the Packaging Department a report of all sourced loans from the previous day’s business, along with a copy of the Welcome Letter, the Quality Control Inspection form, a file label, and the original loan file for each loan sourced.

2. The original file is prepared as follows:

· Checklist: used to ensure documents remain in the same stacking order used by Pre Audit. All internal FCC work papers are removed and boxed for storage. (Section 16 Exhibit YY)

· Retail Installment Contract: original is pulled from the file and the new loan number is recorded on the upper right hand corner of the document. On the back of the contract located in the assignment area FCC Investment Trust I is assigned the loan.

· Mortgage / Deed of Trust: the loan number is also recorded at the top of this document as well as the first and final payment dates. Review is made to ensure that the notary information is complete and that borrower(s) name are printed or typed below their signatures. A photocopy of this document is also made with the copy being placed in the original loan file. The original mortgage is forwarded to the county for recording.

· Assignment of Mortgage / Deed of Trust: the loan number is recorded on this document. It is also reviewed to make certain the assignment is dated on or after the date of completion. Verification is made that notary information is complete and that the authorized contractors name and title is typed or printed below their signature(s). A photocopy is made and the copy is placed in the original loan file. The original assignment is forwarded to the county for recording.

· Homeowners’ Insurance Form: the loss payee endorsement request is faxed to the borrower(s) agent. A declaration page is requested to follow via fax or mail to FCC. A copy of this document is placed in the original file.

· Estoppel Letter: the FCC loan number is recorded on this form and copy is made for the original, the original is mailed to the senior lien holder. A receipt of acknowledgment is returned to FCC. A copy of this document is placed in the original file.

3. A complete scan of all documents that are in the original file is created and the original file is sent to the collateral agent.

B. Forwarding Mortgages/Assignments for Recordation

1. All original Mortgages and Assignments including legal description of property along with checks for recording fees are sent to the county for recordation. These documents are logged into the mortgage tracking program.

2. All mortgages and/or assignment that are returned to FCC from the county for corrections are corrected and returned to the county for recording.

All outgoing or incoming transactions between the county and FCC are notated in mortgage tracking system. (Section 16 Exhibit ZZ)

C. Receipt of Recorded Mortgages/Assignments

1. Once recorded items are received, documents are logged in Mortgage Tracker to reflect date received.

2. A systems check is conducted to determine if FCC owns the loan or if the loan has been sold, paid off or pledged. If FCC owns the loan, the recorded documents are placed in the original file. If accounts were sold, the system generates a letter forwarding the original documents. (Section 16 Exhibit AAA) If account is paid off, the Release of mortgage is executed and sent along with original mortgage to the customer. If the loan is pledged a letter is generated to direct the original mortgage to the collateral agent. Those recorded items are sent out via overnight mail to the collateral agent to be placed in the original file.

3. All recorded documents are scanned and the image is placed in the scan file.

Once receipts of outstanding funding stips are received, documents are copied and placed in the original file. If loan has been transferred, documents are scanned to scan file and forwarded to investor. (Section 16 Exhibit BBB)

Section 10 - ACCOUNTING

POLICY - The Company utilizes “ACCPAC” an accounting software package written by Sage Software, Inc. (version 5.4a). The Vice President of Operations of the department reports directly to Executive Management and has responsibility for all financial entries, reports and documentation.

This department manages payroll, notes receivable, cash receipts and management information systems (MIS) in accordance with generally acceptable practices of accounting rules and directives as adopted or amended by Executive Management and the Board of Directors. Modifications are considered and generally adopted when submitted by qualified external audit or after scheduled visits. Every department or area within the company interacts and/or provides data to the accounting department on a daily basis. Most of the detailed procedure collected/managed by this department is therefore incorporated within other sections of this manual.

PROCEDURE — The procedure for Notes Receivable, Cash Receipts and Cash Disbursement are covered within this section of the FCC Policy and Procedures Manual.

A. FCC Trust Receivable

1. FCC approval of contractors: (see Section 3 Contractor Relations for detail)

· The company facilitates financing for home repairs, remodeling and other miscellaneous home projects.

· FCC works with pre-approved contractors.

· Contractors must go through an approval process before FCC will facilitate any of their contracts.

2. Contractor/FCC approval of Customers: (see Section 3 through Section 8 for detail procedures)

· The contractor must submit the contract for FCC to review for possible sourcing prior to FCC sourcing said contract. The process includes obtaining a credit application, work order, title report, homeowner insurance verification, etc.

· Upon FCC acknowledging it’s commitment to source the note and before the job is started, the customer signs the appropriate documents (see next section for note preparation).

· When the work is completed the contractor and customer sign a completion certificate stating that the project is complete.

· In addition to the completion contract, FCC calls the customer (recording the phone conversation) and verifies with the customer that the job was completed to the customer’s satisfaction.

· At this point, FCC advances funds to the contractor and the note is recorded as a receivable. The amount paid to the contractor is the total

amount financed less any discount, filing fees, and/or other miscellaneous fees. The entry to record the funding follows:

Receivable		XXX
Cash		XXX
Discount		XXX
Title Work Payable		XXX

B. Cash Receipts— FCC follows these procedures for cash receipts: (See Section 12 Loan Servicing for detail)

1. Notes Receivable and Notes Held as Investment

For the notes that FCC holds, checks are posted to the customers account when received. Cash receipts personnel prepare a list of the cash receipts, as well as a daily deposit slip. The Accounting Manager reviews the postings and reconciles the postings to the daily cash receipts total. Deposits are picked up daily by courier for the deposit into the FCC bank account. The Accounting Manager books the necessary entries to the GL. The GL account is then balanced against the loan servicing system to verify the principal reduction and cash receipt.

2. Investor Loans serviced by FCC

After notes receivable are transferred to certain investors, FCC continues to service the loans (i.e. collect payments, etc.). Cash receipts personnel post the payments to the customers account and then prepare a deposit for the investor. Deposits are picked up on a daily basis by a courier and taken to the investor’s bank for deposit. Investor deposits are deposited into an investor account, FCC does not have access to this account other than for deposit and transaction viewing. The investor has all rights to the account.

C. Cash Disbursements — AP

1. Checks

The majority of FCC’s cash disbursements are sent to the contractors to advance funds on behalf on investor as detailed on the disbursement sheet. The employees in the A/P department prepare as the checks. Once the check request is prepared and the check is printed, they are forwarded to the president, vice-president or pre-auditor signature. Disbursements are balanced between the Loan Servicing System and the ACCPAC (Accounting System).

2. Miscellaneous Cash Disbursements

D. Checks (Section 16 Exhibit EEE) are prepared for miscellaneous disbursements and reviewed by the Accounting Manager or Assistant Manager. These requests are entered throughout the week. At the end of the week, checks are prepared and

signed by the president or vice president. The Accounting Manager books the GL entries for these disbursements.

Section 11 - QUALITY ASSURANCE

POLICY - A final audit takes place on every loan. The quality assurance department is responsible for making certain that all documents, verifications and stipulations have been met or signed off by authorized personnel. The file has already passed through underwriting, processing, document preparation, prefunding audit, funding, accounting and packaging before arriving in this department.

PROCEDURE — The quality assurance auditor follows the packaging checklist to review each item making corrections or obtaining missing items when necessary as follows:

1. Name Verification — The borrower(s) name(s) are verified to be the same on the debt sheet, credit application, file folder and credit bureau(s).

2. Credit Application — The auditor checks for original signatures by all applicant(s) with complete information on all borrower(s).

3. Credit Report — The auditor compares debts reported to those listed on the FCC debt analysis sheet. Social security warnings, past due debts and previous bankruptcy filings on the report are identified. If the loan was funded under the FCC Maximizer program, the credit bureau scores are compared to the Maximizer matrix. Bankruptcy must be cleared by a copy of the discharge notice.

4. Retail Contract — The copy of the retail installment contract is reviewed for dates, down payment amount (as compared to the dealer work order), and signatures. The assignment of retail contract must be to FCC Investment Trust I. All contracts must have figures verified to insure accuracy.

5. HUD — 1 — This document shows all amounts involved on the transaction as they appear on the retail contract. It must be signed by all parties on title to the property (compared to title report).

6. Work Order — The dealer contract/work order must be reviewed to insure it bears the dealer (company) name, correct amount that should match the retail contract disclosure, including down payment, dates and signatures by the customer(s) and contractor.

7. Right to Cancel — All parties on title to the property or any parties signing the retail contract must sign this document. The document(s) are checked for dates to insure they match the retail contract and that the 3 days to rescind have been calculated correctly and that they excluded Federal Holidays and Sundays.

8. Mortgage/Deed of Trust — This document is reviewed for dates (must match retail contract date), comparison of customer names/signatures to title report (vesting), amount of contract must be reflected on mortgage (either principal, payment amount or total note as required by the individual states).

9. Assignment of Mortgage — The assignment may appear on the mortgage/deed of trust in some states or may be a separate document in other states. The document is reviewed for date, notarized signatures (if

required) by the contractor and to insure the accurate legal description of the property is attached.

10. Completion Certificate — The original or a copy of this document must be in file and executed by at least one of the persons on the retail contract. The document is also reviewed for accurate dates and the signature of the contractor in the lower section of the document.

11. Title Report — The report must be the original or received directly from a FCC approved title reporting company who is known to have sufficient errors and omission insurance in place. The report will document the vested parties in ownership and the date deed was transferred to them. The report is then reviewed for outstanding mortgages and compared to the FCC debt sheet and mortgage verifications. If listed, liens showing on title must be cleared. Acceptable proof that a lien is released is an original release, letter from mortgagor stating paid in full, an FCC internal verbal verification that the account is paid in full or the credit bureau reflecting the balance is zero and paid in full. Judgments showing on title must be cleared in the same manner as unreleased mortgages or liens. Delinquent taxes on title require proof paid by a copy of the paid receipt or a FCC internal verbal verification with the appropriate authority. The report is also reviewed for date of property conveyance and legal description by deed. An affidavit of identity is required in file if the customer(s) did not sign FCC documentation as titled.

12. Homeowner Insurance — The homeowner insurance verification sheet in file is reviewed for completion. This verification should reflect the insurance company name and the amount of coverage. Lien positions should also be verified at this time. The verification in file must document the FCC employee name and date they completed the verification.

13. Verification of Employment — Current employment must be verified verbally or by fax. If borrower(s) has less than 2 years at their current employment, verifications of previous employment must be obtained.

14. Income Verification (when required) — Income must be verified with a copy of check stubs, award letters or bank statements. Income amounts should be analyzed and compared to the amount used on the FCC debt sheet. Calculations of monthly income from pay stubs is done by taking the year to date earnings divided by the number of months and days covered in the pay period. When only the base salary is disclosed on the pay stub, holiday and sick leave compensation should be added to the base. Before calculating the monthly income, it must be determined how many times per year the borrower is paid. Pay periods may be weekly (52 per year), bi-weekly (26 per year), bi-monthly (24 per year) or monthly (12 per year). The total base income multiplied by the number of paydays can now be calculated. All pay stubs must be checked for payroll deductions, or garnishments and to verify the name is that of our borrower(s).

15. Mortgage Verification - The verification must be complete and reflect the account is within 20 days of due date as of date sourced.

16. Estoppel Letter(s) — A copy of this document is required in file showing the date sent to senior mortgage company(s).

17. Good Faith Estimate — This document is reviewed for customer name(s), dates and the amount (as compared to the HUD — 1 and contract amount approved).

18. FCC Investment Trust I Assignment — This document must reflect the correct amount of mortgage, date of mortgage and be executed completely.

LOAN TRANSFERS

1. The Accounting Department provides a list of loans to be transferred to the Quality Assurance Department. The Quality Assurance area will remove any files on the list that have not been cleared. Other loans may be withheld from a transfer as determined by FCC Senior Management.

2. The original loan files are sent to the investor via overnight carrier with the exception of the following documents that will follow in a separate overnight shipment after the transfer is concluded.

· Sale Assignments: must be completed with the date of transfer, FCC seal, completed notary information and bear a FCC officer signature. A forwarding letter is system generated listing all sale assignments that are being forwarded to the investor.

· Original Mortgage Out for Recordation: A copy of the unrecorded document will be in the file. The recorded documents will be forwarded once FCC receives them from the County Clerk or Recorder of Deeds.

· Retail Installment Contract: a photocopy of original document is sent with the initial package. The original remains with FCC so the endorsement stamp can be placed on the back of the document and executed by a FCC officer.

· The Packaging Department forwards the sale assignment, original retail contract and original mortgage to the investor.

Section 12 - LOAN SERVICING

POLICY — The loan servicing functions begin once FCC sources the loan receivable from a Dealer/Contractor. It is the standard operating procedure of the Company to comply with all state and federal laws while servicing and collecting accounts. Compliance shall include but not be limited to Fair Debt Collection Practices as they may be enforced, adopted or amended. The Company will exercise “zero tolerance” for employee violations that may fall outside of state and/or federal acceptable collection practices.

Additionally, the Company has implemented procedures to assist management in identifying potentially problematic business relationships. Specific Dealer/Contractor numbers are assigned to allow evaluation of the portfolio originated by a specific dealer/contractor. In this manner, proactive decisions can be made as to “risk management” and continuance of the business relationship.

PROCEDURES — The following procedures are required to conduct Customer Service and Cash Receipts activities.

A. Cash Receipts

1. The responsibility of the Cash Receipts area is to handle all incoming payments with accurate control and tracking measures to include: identifying appropriate account numbers to funds received, batching, posting, balancing and reporting of all payment applications, retractions, refunds and adjustments. The customer’s monthly payment consists of late fees, interest and principal. When payments are applied to accounts, the appropriate portion of principal and interest is automatically distributed according to fee plans established in the servicing system.

2. Procedures for processing Cash Receipts:

· Incoming Mail : Payment Processor 1 performs a brief audit of the payment items verifying that the correct account number is on the item, the item is not post dated and the item is appropriately signed. Payment Processor 1 puts all payment items in loan number order. Payment Processor 1 prepares a tape totaling the amount of the payment items.

· Post Dated Checks: Post-dated checks are treated as regular payments when received. They are properly endorsed and deposited with that day’s business.

· Posting of In-House Payments: Payment Processor 1 forwards tape and checks to Payment Processor 2. Payment Processor 2 creates an excel worksheet and verifies that the total matches the tape run by Payment Processor 1. The excel worksheet is imported into Loanbase. Loan base automatically applies all payments that match the payment amount exactly. A preprocess report is printed. This report shows which payments are automatically applied and which ones need to be posted manually. After payments are entered, but before they are posted, a pre-posting report is printed and balanced. Once pre-posting is balanced, the batch is then posted. After all payments are received and balanced Payment

Processor 2 runs reports separating payments by investor. Payment Processor 2 then seperates the payment items and creates a deposit receipt for the correct investor and endorses all payment items with a restrictive endorsement appropriate to the investor. Payment deposits are then stored in a locked fireproof cabinet until picked up by courier. Payment Processor 2 creates a journal entry to the general ledger. Subsequently, the Accounting Manager balances the sub-ledger (Loanbase) against the GL (ACCPAC) to verify all postings were proper, as a final verification of cash receipts.

· Posting of Lockbox Payments: Payment Processor 1 downloads the payment file from the FTP website utilizing a login and secure password. After the files are downloaded an excel worksheet is created. The excel worksheet is imported into Loanbase. Loanbase will automatically apply all payments that match the payment amount exactly. A preprocess report is printed. This report shows which payments are automatically applied and which ones need to be posted manually. After all payments are entered, but before they are posted, a pre-posting report is printed and payments are compared to the pre-process report to ensure reconciles balance. Once payments are balanced, the batch is posted. Payment Processor 1 creates journal entries to the general ledger. Subsequently, the Accounting Manager balances the sub-ledger (Loanbase) against the GL (ACCPAC) to verify all postings were proper, as a final verification of cash receipts.

· Western Union Pay by Phone: Pay by Phones are taken as an alternative method of payment. It is the responsibility of the Collection Department to obtain the customer’s authorization to process their payment via a Western Union transaction. Once the authorization is obtained, the collection department transfers the phone call to the loan servicing department. The identity of the caller is verified by the loan servicing representative and all data given to the loan servicing representative is entered into the system after which a Confirmation Number is given if the payment is approved. The loan servicing representative will then note the customers account with the confirmation number and transaction information including date of check, check number, and the check amount. Borrower’s can also make payments via Western Union through a secure website hosted by Western Union, xxxxx://xxxxxx0.xxxxxxxx.xxx/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/xxxxx.xxx or by calling the automated service provided by Western Union at (000) 000-0000.

· These payments are then transmitted to Western Union at the beginning of each day. The funds are then drafted into the Western Union account. The deposits are recorded and balanced daily by the accounting manager. A report is exported from Western Union into an excel worksheet. The excel worksheet is imported into Loanbase. Loanbase will automatically apply all payments that match the payment amount exactly. A pre-process report is printed showing which payments are automatically applied based on exact amount of payment and which ones need to be manually applied.

After all payments are applied, but before they are posted, a pre-posting report is printed and balanced. The batch is then posted independently. Payment Processor 1 runs a report separating the payments by investor and creates journal entries for the general ledger. Deposits are wired once approved by VP to the appropriate investor account. Subsequently, the Accounting Manager balances the subledger (Loanbase) against the GL (ACCPAC) to verify all postings were proper, as a final verification of cash receipts.

· Posting of Payoff Funds: Payment Processor verifies that the payoff check is a sufficient amount to payoff the loan. All payoff amounts within $5.00 of the required payoff amount will be accepted. If the payoff check is short by more than $5.00, the exact amount of the check is posted as a prepayment amount rather than as a payoff. A letter is then generated stating the remaining balance and the letter is sent to the customer. If payoff check is in excess of payoff amount needed by more than $5.00, the remaining amount is deposited as reimbursed fees. At the close of each month’s business a payoff report is generated and a Check Request form on each account where a refund check is to be issued is then drafted. The Check Request is then submitted for authorization. The refund check will be mailed to the customer within 45 days after payoff and documented in the Borrower Notes of the servicing system.

· Posting Reversals: Payment Processors reverse transactions for various reasons while using support documentation to remain balanced. Reversal transactions appear on the customer(s) pay history. All customers with reversals due to insufficient funds are sent a NSF (Non-Sufficient Funds) notification letter and a copy of this letter is placed in the customer(s) file. A fee is added automatically by the system for all payment reversals due to NSF.

· NSF/Placed for Collection: Payment Processor provides a report of the NSF payments to the Collection Department Supervisor.

· Short Payoffs: When a payoff check is not sufficient to payoff the account, a copy of the payoff quote is obtained to verify the quote was given in writing and has not expired. The sender of the check (Title Company, customer, etc.) is then contacted either by phone or letter and advised that the check is not sufficient to payoff the account and is given the remaining amount needed to payoff the account. After the funds have been posted as a payment, an updated payoff quote is sent to the sender as a confirmation of the shortage. When the shortage amount is received, it will be processed as a payoff.

· Charge Off / Non-Accrual Processing: By the 10th day of the following month, all loans in excess of 120 day delinquent are to be fully charged off. Loans are then status changed to inactive and the balances are written off through the accounting department. All payments received post chargeoff are posted as Credits to the loan loss reserve, if there is a cost basis on the loan. If there is no cost basis all recoveries are credited to P/L income.

B. Customer Service

1. The objective of customer service is to quickly respond to customer inquiries, resolve customer complaints and transfer calls to the appropriate parties in such a manner that our customer will mantain a high level of confidence in FCC. The customer service personnel are to respond to all calls in a friendly, helpful manner. Customer Service interfaces with all departments within the company.

2. Procedures for Customer Service related items are:

· Incoming Calls: The customer service representatives answer incoming calls. They respond to inquiries in a professional and efficient manner to provide information requested or direct the inquiry to the appropriate department or individual within FCC.

· Customer service representatives are responsible for incoming mail, requests for payoffs, requests for mortgage verification, requests for payment histories, ordering coupons for existing customer(s) and returned mail.

· Payoff Quotes: System Generated Calculations - A designated customer service representative is responsible for handling all payoff quotes. Payoff quotes are provided in written form, generated from the loan servicing system with a copy of the quote retained in the customers file. All requests must bear the customer(s) written authorization to release the information on their account. Payoff requests are processed within forty-eight (48) hours. Notes are then entered by the customer service representative

· Mortgage Verifications: Customer service handles all requests for mortgage verifications (VOM) . All requests must bear the customer(s) written authorization to release the information on their account. VOM’s are provided with a system-generated payment history. The VOM will be sent to the customer(s) home address free of charge. VOM requests by fax will be subject to a $ 15.00 processing fee. The customer(s) account is documented when a VOM is prepared and sent.

· Returned Mail: If mail is returned due to an invalid address, the address is verified by checking the loan file. If the address is incorrect, the address is corrected, the account is noted and the item is sent back out to the borrower. If the address is correct and the account is active a senior member of management is notified of the incorrect address in order to determine the appropriate course of action. A note is made to the account of the returned item.

· Coupon Requests: Customer Service Representative handles all coupon requests for existing customer(s). Once a week the Coupon Report is generated for the appropriate date range so coupons can be ordered for new loans originated and reoreders on existing loans. When the report is complete it is sent via email to the external vendor who produces the coupons and mails them directly to the customer(s).

· Estoppel Letters: All acknowledged Estoppel letters are received by a designated customer service representative who determines if the letter is appropriately signed and scans the document to be inserted in the

customer(s) file. All Estoppel letters returned by lenders as “unable to identify an account” are researched by customer service and re-submitted for completion and return.

· Maintenance on Accounts: Maintenance including address and phone number changes can only be input by authorized personnel. High level changes (i.e. investor, due date or legal name change) must be approved by management prior to any system change-taking place. Since only a limited number of FCC employees have “file maintenance access” new data must be requested by completion of a Service Request Form. Authorized personnel will also make routine audits to insure that system information is current and accurate.

C. Records Management

1. The purpose of the Records Department is to maintain files on all customer(s) in a secure, controlled environment. This department and its employees must interact with all FCC departments on a daily basis.

2. Procedures for the management of records:

· All open customer copy files are maintained on-site as scanned images. The Loan Servicing Department is responsible for control of all loan files. FCC employees may view a file on the active directory.

· Workpapers include a computer printed disbursement sheet, hand written disbursement worksheet, approval commitment, copies of credit bureau report(s), documentation if loan required Underwriter re-consideration (referred to as Rehash Sheet) and discount information. Workpapers are scanned in numerical order. Once they have been verified the work papers are sent for destruction.

· Paid in full loan files are also maintained as scanned images. Each month, the File Administrator requests all loans that paid off during the prior month be returned from the collateral agent. Copies of the “release of lien” (if loan was secured) are scanned to the file. File clerks remove the scan file from the active directory and transfer the files to the Paid in Full directory.

· The original collateral documents are maintained on site in secure fire proof file cabinets until transfer. Only authorized personnel have access to original documents.

D. Release of Liens

1. The Release of Lien area is to prepare appropriate (state specific) documents for paid in full loans to be probably executed and forwarded to the appropriate parties within the proper time frame. Release Processors interact externally with the customer(s), Title Companies, attorneys and other mortgage companies.

e) Upon receipt of green certified cards log in pay off log and file.

F. Insurance and Taxes

The Insurance Processors are responsible for monitoring hazard and life insurance claims. These individuals track hazard insurance information in the escrow segment of the Loanbase system, delinquent tax notices are also monitored by this area and documented in the escrow segment of the Loanbase system.

G. Subordinations

1. FCC will consider subordination as follows; Proceeds from the new loan are not to be used for debt consolidation, and there is no cash given directly to the customer(s). Additionally, the new loan amount must be of an equal or lesser amount (with the exception of reasonable fees, costs and delinquent property taxes) than the original loan it is replacing. FCC will not consider subordination if it negates their current lien to a lower position (i.e. moves FCC lien from a 2nd to a 3rd position).

2. When a subordination request is received, the caller or correspondence is referred to a subordination processor. The processor logs the request and sends the inquiring party a “Procedures Regarding Subordination Requests” and a “Subordination Worksheet”. Upon receipt of all required information, the package is referred to authorized management for further review and/or final approval. The cashier is provided with the processing fee and is responsible for maintaining the log and forwarding the funds to the Accounting Department for deposit. If approved proper documents executed and forwarded accordingly. Should the subordination be denied, a written “Denial” notice will be sent.

H. Bankruptcy Notices

As standard in the industry, hours are staggered and typically include some evening and Saturday scheduling. The Collection Manager determines the schedule that is provided in advance each week.

COLLECTION PRACTICES & DISCIPLINES - The following procedures are required when collecting accounts.

· Telephone Collections: This is the primary method used for collecting past due accounts. Acceptable call hours are from 8:00AM until 9:00PM within a specific calling area. Phone collection activity can commence when the account becomes five (5) or more days past due and continue until the delinquency is resolved.

a) First attempt is to make contact at residence.

b) If unable to reach customer(s) at residence, a call is placed to the debtor(s) place of employment or other source of contact (unless notated differently, i.e. not to call at place of employment).

c) Collection calls are made at various times of the day to insure maximum coverage.

d) All collection efforts must be documented on the Collection System. Once contact is made the reason for delinquency should be documented in addition to verifying critical data and obtaining payment or setting a promise date for payment.

c) Relatives, Friends and Co-Workers — may be used for new information and usually have the most recent information regarding the customer(s). However, this method of contact requires that NO DISCLOSURE be made as to the purpose of the inquiry.

· Field Calls: FCC uses an out source company for face to face contact with the customer(s). This service can be used by completion of the order form example in (Section 16 Exhibit OOO). Use of this service requires Collection Manager

approval. If face to face contact is made, they will put the customer(s) on the phone with the Account Representative. If unable to make personal contact with customer(s), they will fax and mail a report with observational information example in (Section 16 Exhibit PPP).

· Judgment: This is a legal remedy available when a customer(s) refuse to make voluntary efforts to resolve the delinquency. This action requires an attorney and must be approved by the Collection Manager and the President. This legal method of collection may allow garnishment of wages or other assets depending on State and Federal laws in affect where the customer(s) reside.

· Settlement: This is a method to liquidate accounts that will otherwise continue to affect delinquency and eventually become a charge off. Settlement can be used to recover charged off accounts. This method of collection requires Executive Management approval and is used when all other collection remedies have been exhausted (i.e. no equity in FCC lien position, senior lien holder foreclosed, customer(s) declared bankruptcy, etc.).

BANKRUPTCY - This is the legal method used by customer(s) to liquidate or reorganize their debts. Once notification of bankruptcy is received (either written or verbally) all standard collection activity must cease. There are three stages in the Bankruptcy process; Pre-Bankruptcy, Bankruptcy and Post-Bankruptcy:

1. Pre-Bankruptcy:

Once FCC is notified that a customer has retained an attorney for Bankruptcy, the account is placed in the pre-bankruptcy queue and the following steps are taken:

a) The attorney is immediately contacted to verify the upcoming bankruptcy filing and is made aware of FCC being either a secured or unsecured creditor. Potential case information is also obtained such as chapter, intentions regarding property if secured, and the possibilities of a reaffirmation.

b) The account is constantly monitored. Attorneys are called on a weekly or bi-weekly basis to obtain case information.

c) Pacer is monitored closely for case information.

d) Once a bankruptcy case has been filed and obtained, the account then goes into the second stage of the Bankruptcy process.

2. Bankruptcy: The accounts are segregated by Chapters 7 or 13, all notifications and documents are then forwarded to the attorney for appropriate action.

a) Chapter 13 (Secured)

1. All written notifications are sent to attorney

2. Proof of claim and loan documents are forwarded to attorney for proper filing

3. Plan is then reviewed for appropriate filing of secured claim for FCC under the plan

4. Accounts are monitored for payments

5. Trustees are contacted for payments being made through the plan

6. Debtor’s attorneys are contacted for payments being made directly by debtor or payments in arrears post petition

7. When permitted by the debtor’s attorneys, customers are contacted for payments in arrears

8. Payment reminders are sent to attorneys

9. If the FCC is to be paid directly by the trustee, the loan is monitored to ensure monthly payment is being sent by trustee, if payments are missed Trustee is contacted for resolution

b) Chapter 13 (Unsecured)

1. All written notifications are sent to attorney

2. Proof of claim and loan documents are forwarded to attorney for proper filing

3. Plan is then reviewed for appropriate filing of unsecured priority claim for FCC under the plan

4. Trustees are contacted for payments being made through the plan for unsecured debt

c) Chapter 7

Two Types of Disposition:

· Reaffirmation: debtor intends to retain possession of their home and continue making the regular monthly payment according to the terms of the contract. Whenever possible, have the debtor and their attorney execute a Re-Affirmation Agreement for filing with the court. Monitor for all payments according to the servicing system due dates.

· Surrender: debtor no longer wishes to keep their home. Typically, the debtor surrenders their home to the mortgage lien holders.

3. Post Bankruptcy

a) Dismissal

· Once the bankruptcy is dismissed, contact attorney and trustee for confirmation of dismissal and continue collection of the account.

b) Discharged

· Under a chapter 7 with reaffirmation, continue normal collection of the account.

· Under a chapter 7 without reaffirmation:

· Secured: lien remains in place and debtor is to continue payments as long as they intend to keep property

· Unsecured: Collection efforts must cease as debt has been discharged.

CHARGEOFF:

Purpose: The purpose for charging accounts to “profit and loss” is to segregate nonperforming loans in order to obtain accurate delinquency and to determine loan losses.

· Account must be 121-days or more past due or declared currently uncollectible prior to 120 day delinquency.

· Each Account is worked for recovery through collecting and legal channels.

Section 14 - MIS—MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEMS

POLICY- The Company employs Information Systems personnel to perform maintenance to FCC computer hardware and software, facilitate reports as required by management and department heads, to ensure the accuracy of the information provided and to conduct systems/data security. Information Systems reports directly to the VP of Operations. The reports and data provided are confidential / proprietary and the VP of Operations or Executive Management must approve modifications, additions and/or release of information.

PROCEDURE -The IT department provides support to all departments in the Company. Reports that have been approved may be generated on an as-needed basis. All requests for additional reporting or formatting changes must be submitted to the VP of Operations or President for approval and the IT department will design and implement the changes as requested. A user testing and approval signoff process is followed to ensure that IT meets the change requirements.

IT is responsible for ensuring system/data security as adopted by management. Backup of the company systems and records are currently completed on a daily basis. Veritas Backup Exec 9.1 is used to maintain the tape back up schedule and to monitor the success of the tape backup and recovery process. Once the tape backup is verified as successful, the tape is changed. This process is completed on a daily basis Monday thru Friday. The previous week’s tape is sent off site to provide added security in the event of fire or other catastrophic event. In total there are 20 backup tapes in the current backup rotation (4 weeks), with a logical rotation of the 2 oldest weeks of backups stored onsite, and the 2 most recent weeks of backups stored offsite. A copy of the loan servicing system is burned onto CD-ROM at the end of each month. For added recoverability a virtual (disk-to-disk) copy of the loan servicing system is copied every 2-3 hours to a backup server.

Trend Micro Anti-virus is installed on the servers and all desktops to protect the company from electronic terrorism. The server and all desktops are configured to automatically check for updates and perform hard drive scans once a day. In the event of a virus, Trend Micro’s website is referenced for solutions in ending the threat to the company’s hardware and software. A standard login script executes on each PC when employees logon to the machine (authenticate to the domain) that validates that the antivirus service is running on the PC and that the signature file is up-to-date. As a second layer of protection, the external web filter has a virus monitoring feature in place as well. The external firewall and server log files are checked monthly by IT to verify that security has not been breached. All inbound email to FCC is first passed through a filtering system that scans and removes virus and spam content before it enters the company network.

An APC backup power supply is utilized to ensure that the server has a consistent power supply at all times. The battery backup will provide the server with power for approximately 40 minutes.

In the event of a power loss, the server is properly shut down within 40 minutes of the power outage. Proper shutdown will prevent data loss/corruption.

Upon request from FCC, IT will perform database maintenance as suggested by the vendor of the loan servicing software. Maintenance includes re-indexing the database files and a cleanup of all temporary files. There should be no users accessing the loan servicing software while this process is being performed. Data loss and corruption will occur if cleanup is performed while users are accessing the system.

Group policies in Active Directory are used to enforce NT account password and screensaver mandatory policies.

All business-critical hardware and software is supported by vendor maintenance contracts, as well as critical Microsoft Windows updates on servers and client machines. With hardware or software issues, IT can contact the vendor for assistance in troubleshooting issues.
