Flood Insurance. There may be instances in which mortgage loans in the
Company's servicing portfolio which did not require flood insurance at
origination were subsequently included within special flood hazard areas as
designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency and flood insurance on
such mortgage loans may not yet be in place. The Company, however, has arranged
for back-up flood insurance coverage in the event of a flood loss relating to a
mortgaged property located in a special flood hazard area. The Company initiated
and is continuing a remapping effort which will identify mortgage loans in its
servicing portfolio which may now be (but which were not at origination)
included in special flood hazard areas. The Company is not aware of any losses
associated with the lack of flood insurance coverage on such mortgage loans.
