SCHEDULE B-1

California Housing Finance Agency Mortgage Assistance Corporation (“CalHFA MAC”)

UNEMPLOYMENT MORTGAGE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM

Summary Guidelines

1. Program Overview The Unemployment Mortgage Assistance Program (“UMA”) is one of 

CalHFA MAC’s federally-funded programs developed to provide temporary 

financial assistance to eligible California homeowners who wish to remain 

in their homes, but have suffered a loss of income due to unemployment 

or underemployment. 

CalHFA MAC is partnering with financial institutions to directly provide 

program funds to subsidize an eligible homeowner’s mortgage payments.

UMA provides mortgage payment assistance equal to the lesser of $3,000 

per month or 100% of the PITI (principal, interest, tax, insurance, as 

applicable) and any escrowed homeowner’s association dues or 

assessments, for up to eighteen (18) months, with the purpose of 

preventing avoidable foreclosures until such time that the homeowner 

retains employment sufficient to meet the demands of satisfying their 

regular mortgage payment. 

2. Program Goals UMA’s goal is to help homeowners remain in their homes and prevent 

avoidable foreclosures despite loss of income due to unemployment or 

underemployment.

The UMA will minimize past due payments, and provide a homeowner 

with additional time to find alternate employment and replace income 

needed to make their mortgage payment.

UMA was designed to assist homeowners who are currently receiving 

California Employment Development Department unemployment benefits, 

and includes homeowners whose unemployment benefits lapsed or 

expired within 30 days of the request for UMA assistance. 

UMA was designed to complement other loss mitigation programs, 

including increasing a homeowner’s eligibility for an extended written 

forbearance plan and/or loan modification.

3. Target Population / 

Areas

UMA is designed to target low-to-moderate income homeowners and 

address the needs of a homeowner’s specific situation in lieu of targeting 

certain regions or counties.

4. Program Allocation $1,001,965,000.00
B-1-2

Doc#: US1:10646612v3

(Excluding 

Administrative 

Expenses)

Authorization to document the reason for the hardship.

• Homeowners who have recently encountered a financial hardship due 

to underemployment or unemployment, including those whose 

unemployment hardship is related to their military service. 

• Homeowner’s total monthly first-lien mortgage payment PITI 

(principal, interest, taxes, and insurance, as applicable) and escrowed 

homeowner’s association dues or assessments must exceed 31 

percent of the homeowner’s gross monthly household income, 

excluding temporary income (e.g., unemployment or short-term 

disability benefits). 

• Homeowner must agree to provide all necessary documentation to 

satisfy program guidelines within the timeframes established by 

CalHFA MAC.

• Homeowner must be currently receiving California Employment 

Development Department unemployment benefits, and includes 

homeowners whose unemployment benefits lapsed or expired within 

30 days of the request for UMA assistance.

• General program eligibility is determined by CalHFA MAC based on 

information received from the homeowner. Program-specific 

eligibility is determined by CalHFA MAC on a first-come, first-approved 

basis until program funds and funding reserves have been exhausted. 

Loan servicer will implement the HHF program based on participation 

agreement terms and conditions.

6. Property / Loan

forbearance balance) of the first-lien mortgage loan is not greater than 

$729,750. 

• The property securing the mortgage loan must not be abandoned, 

vacant or condemned.

• The applicant must own and occupy the single family, 1-4 unit home 

(an attached or detached house or a condominium unit) located in 

California and it must be their primary residence. Mobile homes are 

eligible if they are permanently affixed to the real property that is 

secured by the first lien.

7. Program Exclusions • A Notice of Default (“NOD”) has been recorded on the subject 

property’s first mortgage loan more than 60 days prior to the date of 

request for UMA assistance. 
B-1-3

Doc#: US1:10646612v3

• Homeowner has a subordinate lien that is in foreclosure as evidenced 

by a recorded NOD or Notice of Trustee’s Sale (“NOS”).

• Homeowner is in “active” bankruptcy. Homeowners who have 

previously filed bankruptcy are eligible for consideration only with 

proof of court order “Dismissal” or “Discharge”. 

• Homeowner’s “hardship” is a result of voluntary resignation of 

employment.

• Homeowner in an active HAMP trial modification is not eligible for 

UMA consideration unless the trial is cancelled.

• Homeowner becomes fully employed at any time during the UMA 

benefit period. 

• Homeowner is actively being reviewed for a short sale, a deed in lieu 

and/or TAP benefits.

• Property is subject to a first priority lien securing a Home Equity Line of 

Credit (“HELOC”).

8. Structure of 

Assistance

CalHFA MAC will structure the assistance as a non-recourse, non-interest 

bearing subordinate loan in favor of the Eligible Entity (CalHFA MAC) 

secured by a junior lien recorded against the property in the amount of the 

total reduced PITI (principal, interest, tax, insurance, as applicable) and any 

escrowed homeowner’s association dues or assessments, and equal to the 

total amount of HHF unemployment assistance. At the conclusion of (5) 

five years, the subordinate loan will be released. There is no pro-rated 

forgiveness for this loan. Loan funds will only be repaid to Eligible Entity 

(CalHFA MAC) in the event of a sale or a refinance that includes cash out 

and there are equity proceeds available prior to forgiveness. Recovered 

funds will be recycled in order to provide additional program assistance in 

accordance with the Agreement.

9. Per Household 

Assistance

Up to $54,000 per household in total (average funding of $17,200), 

equaling the lesser of $3,000 per month or 100% of PITI (principal, 

interest, tax, insurance, as applicable) and any escrowed homeowner’s 

association dues or assessments (and in all cases, subject to the HHF 

program maximum benefit cap of $100,000 with respect to monies 

previously received under other HHF programs, if any).

10. Duration of 

Assistance

Homeowner participation in UMA is limited to eighteen (18) months 

maximum.

11. Estimated Number 

of Participating 

Households

Approximately 58,300. This figure is based on loans with unpaid principal 

balances ranging from $200,000 to $400,000 with an average funding of 

$17,200.

12. Program Inception 

/Duration

The statewide launch of UMA was January 10, 2011 and it will continue 

until December 31, 2020 or until funding is fully reserved, whichever 

comes first.

the HHF program maximum benefit cap of $100,000 has not been 

exceeded, and program funds are available. The homeowner is required to 

apply separately for each HFA program. 

14. Program 

Interactions with 

HAMP

This benefit may precede or extend HAMP, including HAMP UP, for 

temporary unemployment assistance which when combined may provide 

assistance for more than one year. HAMP UP currently offers a minimum 

of twelve months’ forbearance for some homeowners.

15. Program Leverage 

with Other Financial

Resources

Upon completion of all UMA benefit assistance payments and based on 

homeowner need, the servicer agrees to consider an extension of 

unemployment forbearance plan (such as HAMP UP or other proprietary 

program) or other foreclosure prevention program, as applicable and per 

investor guidelines.

CalHFA MAC will request that the loan servicer waive fees (e.g., NSF and 

late charges).

MORTGAGE REINSTATEMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM

Summary Guidelines

1. Program Overview The Mortgage Reinstatement Assistance Program (“MRAP”) is one of 

CalHFA MAC’s federally-funded programs developed to provide 

temporary financial assistance to eligible homeowners who wish to 

remain in their homes, but are in imminent danger of losing their home to 

foreclosure.

MRAP provides funds to assist income-qualified homeowners to help 

them cure their delinquent first mortgage loan arrearages, which may 

also include payments needed to reinstate their loans from foreclosure.

2. Program Goals The MRAP will prevent avoidable foreclosures by helping homeowners 

reinstate their past due first mortgage loans.

MRAP will also mitigate the need for large reinstatement dollars to be 

capitalized with remaining loan balance, and thus, broaden the 

population of homeowners who qualify for modification.

PRINCIPAL REDUCTION PROGRAM

Summary Guidelines

1. Program Overview The Principal Reduction Program (“PRP”) is one of CalHFA MAC’s 

federally-funded programs developed with a goal to provide capital to 

homeowners who have suffered an eligible hardship in order to reduce 

the outstanding principal balances of qualifying properties with negative 

equity and/or unaffordable first mortgage payments. 

PRP will provide monies to reduce the principal balance of the first 

mortgage in connection with a loan recast, modification or a stand-alone 

curtailment, each with the purpose of establishing an appropriate level of 

affordability and/or debt for eligible homeowners with qualifying 

properties.

2. Program Goals The PRP will reduce the principal balance of first mortgages in 

cooperation with participating servicers in connection with a loan recast, 

modification, or a stand-alone curtailment, to help qualifying 

homeowners stay in their homes. 

PRP will help homeowners stay in their homes by ensuring they have an 

affordable first mortgage payment and an appropriate level of mortgage 

debt after they receive PRP assistance in accordance with program 

guidelines.

3. Target Population / 

Areas

PRP is designed to target low-to-moderate income homeowners and 

address the needs of a homeowner’s specific situation in lieu of targeting 

certain regions or counties.

mortgage payments.

• Homeowner’s pre-assistance, total monthly first-lien mortgage 

payment PITI (principal, interest, taxes and insurance, as applicable)

assessments, is greater than 38% of the gross household income 

excluding temporary income (e.g., unemployment or short-term 

disability benefits) and/or a homeowner’s pre-assistance LTV ratio is 

greater than 100%.

• Homeowner’s post-assistance, total monthly first-lien mortgage 

payment PITI (principal, interest, taxes and insurance, as applicable) 

including any escrowed homeowner’s association dues or 

assessments, must meet CalHFA MAC’s definition of an “Affordable 

Payment,” which means that the homeowner’s monthly first-lien 

mortgage payment is no greater than 38% of the gross household 

income excluding temporary income (e.g., unemployment or shortterm disability benefits). On a case-by-case basis, CalHFA MAC 

reserves the right to review and approve investor program guidelines 

that utilize post-assistance affordable monthly first-lien mortgage 

definitions greater than 38%.

• Delinquent homeowners with a pre-assistance LTV of greater than 

100% but less than 120% that have a pre-assistance Affordable 

Payment must be able to demonstrate that an eligible hardship 

caused their payment to be temporarily unaffordable (e.g., reduction 

of income or increase in unavoidable expenses as per program 

guidelines).

program guidelines within the timeframes established by CalHFA 

MAC. 

• First Lien mortgage loan must be delinquent or meet the CalHFA MAC 

definition of imminent default as substantiated by homeowner’s 

hardship documentation. General program eligibility is determined 

by CalHFA MAC based on information received from the homeowner.

have been exhausted. Loan servicer will implement the HHF program 

based on participation agreement terms and conditions.

6. Property / Loan

greater than $729,750.

• The property securing the first-lien mortgage loan must not be 

abandoned, vacant or condemned.

• The applicant must own and occupy the single family, 1-4 unit home 

(an attached or detached house or a condominium unit) located in 

California and it must be their primary residence. Mobile homes are

Doc#: US1:10646612v3

eligible if they are permanently affixed to the real property that is 

secured by the first lien.

• A pre-assistance loan-to-value (“LTV”) ratio of 120% or greater is 

considered a hardship indicative of imminent default. 

• If a qualifying, first-lien mortgage loan is delinquent, the servicer 

must utilize the PRP monies to bring the first-lien mortgage loan 

current before applying PRP monies to the homeowner’s principal

Doc#: US1:10646612v3

• Homeowner’s post-assistance total monthly first-lien mortgage 

payment PITI (principal, interest, taxes and insurance, as applicable) 

and any escrowed homeowner’s association dues or assessments, as 

applicable, is less than 25% of the homeowner’s gross monthly

and short-term disability benefits), or greater than CalHFA MAC’s 

definition of an Affordable Payment.

• Property is subject to a first priority lien securing a Home Equity Line 

of Credit (“HELOC”).

8. Structure of 

Assistance

CalHFA MAC will structure the assistance as a non-recourse, non-interest 

bearing subordinate loan in favor of the Eligible Entity (CalHFA MAC), 

secured by a junior lien recorded against the property in the amount of 

the HHF assistance. The term of that lien will be based on the following 

criteria:

• In the event that the homeowner’s post-assistance LTV is less 

than 100%, CalHFA MAC will structure the assistance as a thirty 

year (30) non-recourse, non-interest bearing subordinate loan in 

favor of the Eligible Entity (CalHFA MAC) secured by a junior lien 

recorded against the property in the amount of the HHF 

assistance. The loan is forgivable in increments of 20.0% of the 

original loan balance for each five (5) year anniversary beginning 

at the conclusion of the first ten (10) year anniversary of the 

CalHFA MAC Note (i.e., at ten (10), fifteen (15), twenty (20), 

twenty-five (25) and thirty (30) year anniversaries, only). The 

loan will be fully released at the conclusion of thirty (30) years. 

The loan will not be prorated prior to the first ten (10) year 

anniversary or for any years between subsequent five (5) year 

anniversaries. Loan funds will only be repaid to Eligible Entity 

(CalHFA MAC) in the event of a sale or a refinance that includes 

cash out and there are equity proceeds available prior to 

forgiveness.

• In the event that CalHFA MAC receives less than 100% match in 

funds by the lender/servicer and the homeowner’s postassistance LTV is 100% or greater, CalHFA MAC will structure the 

assistance as a non-recourse, non-interest bearing subordinate 

loan in favor of the Eligible Entity (CalHFA MAC) secured by a 

junior lien recorded against the property in the amount of the 

HHF assistance. At the conclusion of (5) five years, the 

subordinate loan will be released. There is no prorated 

forgiveness on this loan. Loan funds will only be repaid to Eligible 

Entity (CalHFA MAC) in the event of a sale or a refinance that 

includes cash out and there are equity proceeds available prior to 

forgiveness. 

In the event that CalHFA MAC receives a 100% or greater match in funds 

by the lender/servicer and the homeowner’s post-assistance LTV is 100% 

or greater, then CalHFA MAC will not structure the assistance as a loan.
B-3-5

Doc#: US1:10646612v3

Recovered funds will be recycled in order to provide additional program 

assistance in accordance with the Agreement.

9. Per Household 

Assistance

Up to $100,000 per household (average funding has been $73,500), less 

program monies previously received under other HHF programs. 

10. Duration of 

Assistance

In most cases, assistance will be available to households on a one- time 

only basis; provided, however, that CalHFA MAC reserves the right to 

provide additional PRP benefits (not exceed the maximum program 

assistance amount per household) to previous PRP recipients if the 

homeowner has suffered a subsequent, qualifying hardship.

11. Estimated Number 

of Participating 

Households

Approximately 12,200. This figure is based on loans with unpaid principal 

balances ranging from $200,000 to $400,000, with an average funding of 

$73,500.

12. Program Inception / 

Duration

The statewide launch of PRP was February 7, 2011 and it will continue 

until December 31, 2020 or until funding is fully reserved, whichever 

occurs first.

13. Program Interactions 

with Other HFA 

Programs

Other HFA program benefits may be available to the homeowner 

provided the HHF program maximum benefit cap of $100,000 has not 

been exceeded, and program funds are available. The homeowner is 

required to apply separately for each HFA program. 

14. Program Interactions 

with HAMP

PRP may work in conjunction with a HAMP modification to help eligible 

homeowners achieve desired income ratios, payment affordability and 

establish an appropriate level of mortgage debt. PRP may be used to 

reduce or eliminate an existing non-interest bearing forbearance balance 

from a previous HAMP loan modification as described in the MHA 

Handbook, Principal Curtailments Following Modification section. PRP 

may also be combined or used in conjunction with the HAMP Principal 

Reduction Alternative (PRA). PRP funds are not eligible in any 

combination to qualify for HAMP PRA investor incentive compensation. 

15. Program Leverage 

with Other Financial 

Resources

CalHFA MAC will require that the servicer waive all accrued and unpaid 

late charges and NSF fees at the time the modification agreement is 

completed. CalHFA MAC will require the servicer to waive any associated 

recast or modification fee.

THE TRANSITION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM

Summary Guidelines

1. Program Overview The Transition Assistance Program (“TAP”) is one of CalHFA MAC’s 

federally-funded programs developed to provide eligible homeowners 

with transition assistance when it is determined that they can no longer 

afford their home.

TAP will be used in conjunction with short sale and deed-in-lieu programs 

to help homeowners make a smooth transition to housing. Homeowners 

will be required to occupy and maintain the property until the home is 

sold or returned to the lender as negotiated.

Program funds will be available on a one-time only basis up to $5,000 per 

household and can be used or layered with other CalHFA MAC HHF 

programs. Funds will be sent to the homeowner after the short sale or 

deed-in-lieu of foreclosure closing. Funds are intended to help the 

homeowner secure new housing (e.g., rent, moving expenses, and 

security deposits) and will also be available for transition assistance 

counseling services.

2. Program Goals CalHFA MAC envisions that these monies would be used to complement 

other federal or lender programs designed specifically to stabilize 

communities by providing assistance to homeowners who have suffered a 

financial hardship and as a result are no longer financially able to afford 

their first-lien mortgage loan payments or their Property Expenses when 

associated with a Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”) Home Equity 

Conversion Mortgages (“HECM”) loan, only.

Community HousingWorks 

C2MPRP: Community 2nd Mortgage Principal Reduction Program

Summary Guidelines

1. Program 

Overview

The Community 2nd Mortgage Principal Reduction Program (Community 

2nd Mortgage PRP, or C2MPRP) is offered through a CalHFA federallyfunded Hardest Hit Fund program through a contract between CalHFA 

MAC and Community HousingWorks. Community HousingWorks will 

administer this program. 

C2MPRP will provide capital on 40/60 matching basis with participating 

nonprofit, credit union and lenders, to reduce the outstanding principal 

balances of subordinate second mortgages, as well as providing relief for a 

subordinate lien on a short sale on a 40/60 matching basis for qualifying 

properties with negative equity exceeding 107% CLTV. The lenders who 

will participate in this program are nonprofit lenders, credit unions and 

lenders with qualifying subordinate liens. These lenders provided 

“amortizing seconds” home buyers throughout California. Participation in 

this program is Statewide. C2MPRP will provide monies to reduce the 

principal balance on a 40/60 matching basis for the purposes of 

establishing an appropriate level of debt for eligible borrowers with 

qualifying properties. For example, if the subordinate debt to be 

extinguished is $50,000, the C2MPRP program will provide up to 40% of 

that amount or $20,000 and the participating lender/investor would 

forgive 60% or $30,000. A reduction in principal through C2MPRP can 

achieve desired income ratios and affordability for a borrower on the 

existing mortgage loans or can be used in conjunction with a loan 

modification. Lenders holding subordinate liens in the State of California 

may find that their clients’ only option to avoid foreclosure is a short sale. 

The C2MPRP program can provide subordinate lien holders a 40/60 

matching incentive for the subordinate lien holder to facilitate a short 

sale in order to avoid foreclosure. The principal reduction will be 40% of 

the principal balance and the lender will accept the 60% reduction. For 

example if the total principal balance is $50,000, the C2MPRP program can 

provide $20,000 to subordinate lien holders if they will accept the principal 

reduction of $30,000 in order to accept the short sale. The total amount 

of principal that can be paid out on all liens is $50,000.
B-5-2

Doc#: US1:10646612v3

2. Program Goals The goal of this program is to reduce foreclosures by reducing principal 

balances, on qualified amortizing subordinate debt, to those market levels 

needed to prevent avoidable foreclosures and promote sustainable 

homeownership. 

There are situations where a short sale is the only solution to avoiding 

foreclosure; by providing matching funds this will incent the subordinate 

lien holders, who in many cases are only able to recover a $1,000 or less in 

a short sale, to accept the transaction and allow the sale to go through.
