New Document Implementation Matrix HIGHLIGHTS: Master Lease – after July 12, 2013, new docs required If Master Lease was created under old documents, but a new project is being added with an FC issued after July 12, 2013, then new docs will be required except for Master Lease and Cross- Default Guaranty of Subtenants. For new AR lines submitted on or after July 12, 2013, all new AR- related documents will be required, including A/R Financing Certification form HUD ORCF and Intercreditor Agreement (Form HUD ORCF). If AR line was previously approved by HUD and there is no substantial change in AR line, ORCF will allow use of old ICA & Rider, but in all instances, must use A/R Financing Certification Form. 10

New Document Implementation Matrix New construction – two stage submission process If old documents were timely used in the initial submission, then the old documents should be used on the final submission, consistent with the old submission checklist. If the FC for the initial stage was issued on or after July 12, 2013, then the new documents should be used. 241 Transactions If FC on a 241 is issued on or after July 12, 2013 on a project with an existing FHA-insured loan which is governed by the old documents, the new sample 241 closing documents are to be used. 11

DACA & DAISA Sample documents only, no standard form; unique to each bank Smaller banks more agreeable to accept “as is” More pushback from larger banks wanting to use own form & refusing to sign Public comments were against form DAISA: Number of days prior to termination of the account troublesome area Updated 232 regulations clarified that accounts must be in an insured account (e.g. FDIC); offshore accounts unacceptable. 14
