Transaction Type The Participating Financial Institution (PFI) may sell closed loans to its applicable Federal Home Loan Bank (MPF Bank).

Process The PFI will obtain a master commitment from the MPF bank for the amount of loans the PFI expects to sell and the time period in which it expects to sell such loans to the MPF bank.

FHA/VA Loan Types The MPF Bank will acquire fully amortizing, fixed-rate, one- to four-unit residential mortgage loans insured by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

Also, the PFI shall, as the servicer, be responsible for Unreimbursed Servicing Expenses (those amounts not reimbursed by the FHA or the VA with respect to defaulted loans), in the same manner and to the same extent as is customary for GNMA loan servicers.

MPF Bank Obligation Expenses which are neither covered by FHA insurance/VA guaranty nor included in the Unreimbursed Servicing Expenses will be the obligation of the MPF Bank.

Government Loan Fee The PFI will be paid monthly a Government Loan Fee of 2 basis points (0.02 percent) annualized.
