( See Phone Log XX/XX/XXXX ). The Mortgage Subordination Agreement was sent to SPS on XX/XX/XXXX. [ 2 ] SPS acknowledge receipt of XX/XX/XXXX correspondence with their letter dated XX/XX/XXXX. [ 3 ] Mortgagors made several calls to SPS requesting the status of their completion of the Mortgage Subordination Agreement. SPSs reply was general in stating, it is under review, awaiting management review, or with underwriters ( Phone Log XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX ) XX/XX/XXXX, after no contact or progress with the Mortgage Subordination Agreement, mortgagors sent a second letter of explanation requesting status.

XX/XX/XXXX the aforementioned mortgage was sold to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX, as Trustee for the benefit of the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX2. [ 7 ] Mortgagors still have not received letter stating mortgage was sold. Mortgagors retrieved sell information from XXXX XXXX Clerks Office. 

The requested information, Appraisal/Impact Study, SPS required from mortgagors on XX/XX/XXXX was sent via regular mail on XX/XX/XXXX. Several calls from mortgagor to SPS were placed to check status of Mortgage Subordination Agreement and receipt of Appraisal/Impact Study. ( Call Log XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX. ) SPS General Acknowledgement Letter dated XX/XX/XXXX was issued.

As seen above, the Mortgagor has made more than reasonable attempts to have SPS complete the Mortgage Subordination Agreement and return to the Mortgagor or XXXX XXXX. To date this has not occurred in what any prudent person would believe was a reasonable time frame.

XXXX, XXXX This unreasonable delay has cost mortgagors approximately {$10000.00} in rental income to date and SPS continued procrastination might possibly cause the lease to terminate. If the lease terminates the lost rental income for mortgagors and their heirs is just shy of {>= $1,000,000}.

[ 10 ] SPS is the Servicer for the XXXX  XXXX, which is a combined mortgage certificate Trust.
