12. FFB Pricing Criteria - Existing Properties The FFB Initiative is a bridge allowing HFAs to access capital at favorable rates until the statutory prohibition on the use of Ginnie Securitization in the risk share program is eliminated. FFB Pricing will be benchmarked to comparable Ginnie Mae Securities for program type i.e. NC/SR (221D4) or Existing Properties (223(f). Current benchmark indication for Existing Properties is 105bps over 10 year Treasuries. I 12 I

13. Timing for Closing Existing Properties Property must be converted to permanent phase, FHA Firm Commitment Issued and Designation Request must be submitted to FFB 7 business days prior to funding. All documents to which FFB is a party must be dated as of the funding date, signed by all parties (except FFB), and placed into escrow on Monday 3 days prior to funding. FFB executes all documents on Tuesday prior to funding. I 13 I

14. Timing for Closing Existing Properties – Continued FFB sets Certificate rate by Noon on Wednesday prior to funding. Rate is based on 10 Year UST as of COB the prior Business Day. HFA once it knows the Certificate rate is given until COB on Wednesday to opt-out of the transaction. Closing/funding will occur on Thursday. I 14 I

16. NC/SR Pricing Criteria 40 Year term is fine if allowed by FHA insurance. FFB is evaluating providing insured draws as well as funding upon completion. Pricing could be as much as 50 basis points higher than for Existing Properties due to prospect of rising interest rates. There will likely be a fee to extend the construction phase beyond scheduled date. I 16 I
