Current State: Background

• Company XYZ has embarked on a multi-year effort to transform their Mortgage Backed Securities (MBS) program and associated business process and technology to meet the demands of an increasingly complex environment.

• Company XYZ’s overriding goal is to protect and preserve the utility, relevance, and successful track record of the MBS program. The white paper, ABC, illustrates the major issues impacting the program (e.g); this paper also lays out areas in which Company XYZ will be aggressive about changing its program and infrastructure to meet the evolving needs of the market.

Current State: Engagement Summary

• The Unissant/Actualize team was contracted to provide a current state analysis of the Company XYZ pool-centric model and what it would take to move towards a model that is based on loan level data.

• Assumptions:

₋ Company XYZ senior leadership has a firm understanding of the policies, procedures, and limitations of the current operating model and does not want a report that re-hashes existing documentation.

₋ Company XYZ senior leadership expects a foundational document that identifies key findings, major areas of impact, and plausible options to continue and enhance the success of the MBS program.

Current State: Project Objectives

5

• Understand the complexity of the changes involved of going from a pool structure to a loan-level structure business model including the identification of policy, business process, and systems gaps.

• Develop current state documentation to support the creation of roadmap that will ultimately include a current state, future state, gap analysis, identification of key data points, program changes and system changes that will be required to move down the path that allows for loan level processing rather than pool level for certain functions including transferring Mortgage Servicing Rights (MSRs).

• Establish the foundation for a future state roadmap.

Page 6: Company XYZ – Loan-Level Portfolio

&

Current State: Project Approach

• Work with Company XYZ stakeholders to obtain input and capture concerns and challenges; and review of current process flows; participant roles and responsibilities; and MBS guide

• Consult with various stakeholders to obtain input from each respective program office and insuring agencies

• Consult with Pool Processing Agent and other vendor contract representatives to obtain current state capacity focusing on pool issuance, monthly investor reporting and pool transfers.

Phase 1: Discovery

• Create high level mapping of current state functions (process flow)• Identify systems and databases mapped to each process and signify which are impacted by

the business change to loan level• Identify and recommend the addition of the key data tables and or data elements to allow

for loan to security connection. • Identify all files or data feeds that will be impacted by the change both internal to Company

XYZ and with Issuers or other counterparties

Phase 2: Current

State

• Finalize presentation that includes: Current State Analysis, Gap Analysis, Options for Meeting future state.

Current State: Company XYZ vs Industry Comparison

8

The table below illustrates the key differences between Company XYZ and the Mortgage Industry both in terms of role name and responsibilities.

Responsibilities Mortgage Industry Role

Company XYZ Role

Key Difference

Pre-Issuance/Issuance Functions Seller and Issuer Issuer(Servicer)

In the Mortgage Industry, once Security or Bonds have been issued, the Seller or Issuer may not have any servicing rights to loans it issued.

(excludes PIIT program)

Advancing Delinquent Payments

Servicer or Subservicer Issuer(Servicer) The Servicer (barring a Subservicing Agreement giving this authority to the

Subservicer) is responsible for advancing funds for delinquent payments

Collecting Payments Servicer or Subservicer Issuer(Servicer) The entity servicing the loan (Servicer or Subservicer) is responsible for

collecting periodic mortgage payments.

Reporting Servicer Issuer(Servicer)The Subservicer does send collection reports to support fund sent to the

Servicer by the Subservicer. But reporting to the Trustee is the responsibility of the Servicer.

Owner of MSRs (with ability to transfer) Servicer Issuer(Servicer)

The Servicer may elect to sell MSRs in an open market to the highest bidder while Company XYZ requires the entity which issued the Securities to

initially hold these rights (excluding PIIT program)

Subservicing Functions Subservicer Subservicer A Mortgage Industry Subservicer is typically a servicing shop. Company XYZ requires Subservicers to be Company XYZ Approved Issuers.

Limited changes needed

The Unissant/Actualize team evaluated Company XYZ’s key current loan-level capabilities across policy, process, systems, data, and people. The summary of the assessment is provided below:

Current State Key Findings Risks/Impact

Roles and responsibilities in the MBS guide do not conform to current industry practices.

Inflexibility of the MBS program will continue; participants may pursue more ‘industry standard’ options

Company XYZ current policy of only one Issuer per pool is limiting.

Prohibits MSR transfers within a pool at the loan-level; barrier for program entry for many participants including non-bank entities

Company XYZ’s reporting system can not receive multiple files from multiple issuers within a pool without failing

Prohibits multiple Servicers per pool.

A basic reconciliation occurs from loans to pool to security for one Issuer.

The current reconciliation functionality will not accommodate multiple Issuers/Servicers.

Company XYZ’s operational performance measures on Issuers/Servicers are inadequate and do not provide meaningful feedback

Without measuring “how the participants are performing servicing functions” Company XYZ will lack the necessary information for accurate forecasting and decision making.

Detailed impact analysis can be viewed in the Appendix section

Future State

11

• Align the Loan-level initiative with Company XYZ’s vision for a future state as illustrated in the white paper, ABC.

• Discuss proposed new roles and responsibilities, and options for a future state.

• Identify automated technology solutions for high-intensive analytical functions such as loan-level balance roll ups, pool to security roll ups, and payment tracking from Originators to Servicers to the Transfer agent.

The following slides focus on achieving the target state capabilities of a Loan-level model.

Future State: Company XYZ’s Future Vision

12

The Unissant/Actualize Team proposed a target state to align with Company XYZ’s future vision for its program.

Target State Capabilities BenefitsIdentify, understand, and plan for changes to the market environment and market participants.

•Residential MBS remains an economically viable activity•MSRs remain an attractive asset class.

Embrace the increasing presences of non-depository firms and the accompanying trend toward networked (specialized) firms.

•Value in diversity and innovation from these specialized firms•Opportunity to broaden access to the MBS program through non-traditional structures

Establish new measures and standards to assess operational and financial performance.

•Greater accuracy for portfolio valuations•Greater understanding of the participants operational performance.

Increase market liquidity both for the program and the program’s participants

•Opportunity to transfer MSRs at the loan-level and also divorce MSRs from servicing operations.•Recognition of entities that finance mortgage servicing operations.

Preserve Company XYZ’s long-term program by strengthening oversight on Issuers for non-compliance

•More active monitoring of Servicer activity and MSR values may allow for proactive remediation activities prior to economic event.

The Authorized Servicer role is performed either by:• Issuer at Issuance who assumes the role of Servicer• A Servicer who purchases MSRs• Another Company XYZ approved Servicer (only if the first two options are not feasible)

The Servicers and Subservicers will report into the investor reporting system separately for the loans they service in the pool. Each Servicer will be responsible for advancing funds and/or covering shortfalls on the loans they hold MSRs to.

Funds can be remitted to one central P&I account administered by the Authorized Servicer to be drafted by the transfer agent. Another option is to have the transfer agent draft out of each Servicer’s P&I account (Custodial or Central).Placing responsibilities of the Authorized Servicer on one of the Servicers may not be economically viable to that Servicer if there is no compensation. This function may require additional resources to ensure adequate coverage of the Authorized Servicer responsibilities.

Pool 1075The Authorized Servicer role is performed by:

• Company XYZ or a Vendor it contracts with to perform this function.

The Servicers and Subservicers will report into the investor reporting separately for the loans they service in the pool. Each Servicer will be responsible for advancing funds and/or covering shortfalls on the loans they hold MSRs to.

The transfer agent will draft out of each Servicer’s P&I account (Custodial or Central). Company XYZ will have final authorization of each draft out of each Servicer’s P&I account.

Company XYZ will need to ensure there are sufficient resources available for adequate coverage of the Authorized Servicer responsibilities.

Post-Issuance

Subservicer 3(10 loans)

Post-Issuance, the Issuer will now have the role of Servicer. The Servicer can only sell MSRs at the pool level per Company XYZ MBS Guidelines.

The Servicer may enter into as many Subservicing Agreements as it would like within a pool. Each Subservicer would continue to be an approved Company XYZ Issuer.

The Subservicers will report on their loans into the investor reporting system and will be required to send the Servicer a reconciliation of payments so the Servicer is aware of what payments are required to be advanced.

While each Subservicer can have its own Custodial P&I account, they will required to send payments to the Servicer and the Servicer will make available funds for the transfer agent to draft to pay the Security Holders.

This is an interim solution only and would not allow the Servicer to sell their MSRs at the loan-level.

ConclusionExecutive Summary

Scope: Company XYZ I pools are more problematic moving to a loan-level model. To lessen impacts, it should be considered to move only Company XYZ II pools to loan-level. Company XYZ I holders can convert to Company XYZ II to achieve new features

Policies: Policy changes will impact roles and responsibilities (i.e., Issuer, Servicer and Company XYZ), processes and procedures. We recommend a role of Servicer be established.

Processes: Internal and external business processes will be impacted with policy changes. It is expected that the Compliance and Monitoring, Eligibility, Investor Reporting and MSR process will have medium to high impacts while the Document Custodian Processes are minimally impacted.

Data: Loan-level data is currently collected at issuance and via monthly servicing files. The capture of additional loan level data would be minimal.

Systems: Low impact to issuance modules and high impact to post-issuance systems.

₋ ____ systems will potentially have significant business rules and reporting impacts.

₋ An automated function that reconciles loan-level to pool balances prior to funds being sent to the Pool Processing Agent needs to be created.

People: Company XYZ has limited resources to facilitate the large change. Reliance on vendors will be required in the short term; long-term Company XYZ should invest funds spent on consultants into creating the new automated reconciliation function. Also shift more analytical functions related to operations from vendor resources Company XYZ employees.

Approach Recommendation: Determine the role and responsibility Company XYZ wishes to perform in the future state model.

Microsoft Office Excel Worksheet

The attached Excel document simulates a Future State Security scenario. The scenario shows pools with multiple Servicers/Subservicers. The tabs are set up as follows.• Tab 1 – Show pool at a time where there have been loan-level MSRs sales with multiple

Subservicers. Each pool has an explanation of what happened within that pool.• Tab 2 – Illustrates what would be reported to the investor reporting system by each Servicer

and Subservicer.• Tab 3 – Shows what loans each Servicer is responsible for with regards to advancing/covering

shortfalls.• Tab 4 – Illustrates a sample report the Subservicers would sent to the Servicers so the

Servicer is aware of all subserviced loans they have to advance.

Data ManagementThe current state data structure is based on the assumption of one pool which contains many loans and each pool has only one Issuer associated. In the future state the assumption is that each pool will contain one or many loans and each pool can contain one or many Servicers. The diagram below illustrates these concepts.

Transferring MSRs is industry wide performed between Servicers, not Issuers.

Current Post-Issuance roles and responsibilities of an Issuer resembles those of a Servicer.

Policy specifies Issuer

Transfer agent will continue to make payments to Security Holders.

MSR transfers do not exist within pools – a policy needs to be created.

Create policy for Servicer application and eligibility. Compliance changes

This will be one of the biggest changes to policy as the policy will need to rewritten to address aggregation methodology.
