COVID-19 Fees – Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, effective as of April 1, 2020, in consideration for the Servicer waiving the Additional Servicing Fees with respect to any Third Party Loan that is delinquent as a result of a COVID-19 related forbearance, the Servicer shall be entitled to the following COVID-19 Fees, as applicable, for each such Third Party Loan:


	
 
	
(a)
	
A one-time “Forbearance Set Up Fee” of $25;
	
 





	
 
	
(b)
	
A “Forbearance Monitoring Fee” of $12 per month; and

A fee of $125 for each subsequent modification characterized as a “repayment plan,” $275 for each modification characterized as a “payment deferral,” or $675 for each modification characterized as a streamline “flex modification” and $1,650 for each modification characterized as a full documentation “flex modification.”
	
 




The parties understand and agree that the Servicer’s waiver of the Additional Servicing Fees as described above shall only apply during the term of any COVID-19 related forbearance or extension thereto. If a Mortgage Loan (a) remains delinquent when the forbearance plan or extension thereto expires, or (b) becomes delinquent again after the end of a COVID-19 related forbearance or extension thereto and such new delinquency is not as a result of another COVID-19 related forbearance, then the Additional Servicing Fees shall subsequently apply. If a Mortgage Loan has more than one COVID-19 related forbearance, all of the COVID-19 Fees above shall apply to each such COVID-19 related forbearance.

If the Servicer effects a forbearance or a modification that results in any incentive payment to the Servicer or the Owner from Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or any other third party or entity, the Servicer shall pass through to the Owner the amount of such incentive payment.

Deed in Lieu Fee:  $500, unless the deed in lieu is completed under the U.S. Treasury’s Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives initiative, in which case no Deed in Lieu Fee shall apply.

REO Property Lease Renewal Fee: $100 per lease renewed.

REO Property Rental Fee: $30 per month per REO Property.

REO Property Management Fee: Servicer's cost if property management services and/or any related software costs are outsourced to a third party property management firm or 9% of gross rental income if Servicer provides directly those property management services identified on Exhibit 12 to the Agreement.

REO Property Tenant Paid Fees: Servicer may retain any tenant paid application fee or late rent fee.

REO Property Third-Party Vendor Fees: In the event Servicer provides property management services directly, Servicer may charge Owner the Servicer's cost for support services provided by any third-party vendor that arise out of Servicer’s property management services.  Such fees may include, but are not limited to, related software, real estate broker marketing, eviction and inspection services, as well as leasing fees to the real estate broker.

Tax Service Contract:  $75.00 per Mortgage Loan.

Flood Zone Service Contract:  Servicer’s cost.

MERS Fee:  Servicer’s cost.

Reperformance Fee:  $1,750.00 if the Mortgage Loan is brought current (after having been delinquent for a period of 90 days or more) without any modification and remains current for a consecutive period of 12 months or is sold prior to the expiration of such 12 months.

Modification Fee:  (a) $1,750.00 if the modification includes an interest rate reduction or is classified by the Servicer (acting in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices) as a full modification, or (b) $750.00 if the modification is classified by the Servicer (acting in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices) as a streamlined modification; or, if the Servicer participates in the U.S. Treasury’s Home Affordable Modification program (or other similar mortgage loan modification programs) and enters into a transaction involving the Mortgage Loan that results in the payment or retention of any incentive payment to the Servicer or Owner and the Servicer is not otherwise entitled to a Modification Fee as set forth above, $1,750.00.

If the Servicer enters into a transaction involving the Mortgage Loan under the U.S. Treasury Department’s Home Affordable Modification program (or other similar mortgage loan modification programs) that results in any incentive payment to the Servicer or Owner and the Servicer has already collected a Modification Fee, the Servicer shall reimburse the Owner the amount of such incentive payments.

In the event the Servicer effects a refinancing of a Distressed Whole Loan on behalf of the Owner and not through a third party lender and the resulting Mortgage Loan is readily saleable, or the Servicer originates a Mortgage Loan to facilitate the disposition of REO Property, the Servicer shall be entitled to fees and other compensation in connection with such originations based on market-based pricing and terms that are consistent with the pricing and terms offered by the 

 

8



 

Servicer to unaffiliated third parties on a retail basis.  The amount of the compensation and the pricing and terms offered by the Servicer shall be subject to review by the Owner and the Servicer from time to time to reflect market rates.  The Owner shall reimburse the Servicer for any out of pocket expenses that the Servicer incurs in connection with any such origination, including title fees, legal fees and closing costs.
