EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

(1) Type of assets that were reviewed.

AMC Diligence, LLC (“AMC”), performed the due diligence services described below (the “Review”) on residential mortgage loans acquired by Nomura Corporate Funding Americas, LLC (the “Client”). These mortgage loans, which were originated by multiple parties, were purchased by the Client in multiple bulk transactions or via Reliance Letter and were reviewed by AMC on behalf of such party. The mortgage loans were reviewed via files imaged and provided by the Client or its designee for review.

(2) Sample size of the assets reviewed.

The Review was conducted on the portion of the securitization mortgage loan population reviewed by AMC. The Client may have utilized multiple third-party review (“TPR”) firms for the securitization and AMC may or may not have reviewed all of the mortgage loans in the securitization loan population for a specific scope of review. During the course of the selection of the final securitization population mortgage loans may have been eliminated from originally envisioned securitization population for reasons that are unknown to AMC. Within the final securitization mortgage loan population, the Review sample was broken down into the following review scopes:

During the course of the securitization evaluation process, the Client may have removed loans that were reviewed by AMC from the securitization for reasons that were not disclosed to AMC.

(3) Determination of the sample size and computation.

The Review was conducted consistent with the criteria for the nationally recognized statistical rating organizations, NRSRO(s), identified in Item 3 of the Form ABS Due Diligence-15E.

(4) Quality or integrity of information or data about the assets: review and methodology. AMC compared data fields on the bid tape provided by the Client to the data found in the actual mortgage loan file as captured by AMC. This comparison, when data was available (please note that not all fields were available for all Loans during the Review) and relevant for the Scope in question, included the following data fields:

Additionally, AMC verified (i) listed borrowers signed documents requiring signature, (ii) borrowers signing documents were eighteen (18) years or older at the time of the mortgage loan origination, (iii) that all riders required by the terms of the mortgage and mortgage note were attached to the respective document, (iv) that social security numbers across documents were consistent, and (v) debt-to-income ratio (“DTI(s)”) and/or loan-to-value ratios (“LTV(s)”) were used in the assessment of conformity guidelines.

(5) Origination of the assets and conformity to stated underwriting or credit extension guidelines, standards, criteria or other requirements: review and methodology.

CREDIT REVIEW (580 Loan)

AMC reviewed asset origination to determine conformity to the stated underwriting or credit extension guidelines, standards, criteria or other requirements, including, as applicable for the Residential Population, the Ability to Repay and Qualified Mortgage requirements described below, that were provided to AMC. When applicable, a review of the mortgage loan file to the Automated Underwriting System output within the mortgage loan file was also performed.

Credit Application: For the Credit Application, AMC verified that the application: (i) was signed by all listed borrowers, (ii) was substantially filled out, (iii) contained all known borrower-owned properties on the Real Estate Owned section 2, and (iv) included the borrower’s employment history.

Credit Report: AMC’s review included confirming that a credit report, that met guideline requirements, was present for each borrower and that such borrower’s credit profile adhered to the guidelines. In order to make this determination, AMC: (i) captured the monthly consumer debt payments for use in relevant calculations, (ii) noted and researched the Real Estate Owned and fraud alerts, (iii) gathered liabilities listed on the credit report to be included in the debt to income ratio as appropriate, and (iv) gathered data required for the ASF tape submission including (a) the most recent FICO (scores from Equifax, Experian, and Transunion if available), (b) the most recent FICO date, (c) the longest trade line, (d) the maximum trade line, (e) the number of trade lines, and (f) the credit usage ratio.

Employment and Income: AMC determined whether applicable supporting employment and income documentation required by the guidelines, and as applicable Appendix Q or ATR, was present in the mortgage loan file and where possible, wasn’t fraudulent. This documentation was used to verify whether the income used to qualify the mortgage loan was calculated in accordance with the guidelines and may have included items such as: (i) verbal or written verification of employment, (ii) pay stubs, (iii) W-2 forms, (iv) tax returns, (v) financial statements, (vi) IRS tax transcripts, and (vii) Bank Statements.

Asset Review: AMC assessed whether the asset documentation required by the guidelines, and as applicable, Appendix Q or ATR, was present in the mortgage loan file. Utilizing this documentation, AMC completed a review of the reserve calculation and any large deposits. Documentation verifying assets for down payment, closing costs, prepaid items and reserves may have included: (i) verification-of-deposit (“VOD(s)”), (ii) depository account statements, (iii) stock or security account statements, (iv) gift funds, (v) escrow or earnest money deposits, and (vi) settlement statements or other evidence of conveyance and transfer of funds (if a sale of assets was involved).

Hazard/Flood Insurance/Taxes: A review of the insurance present on the mortgage loan was also performed by AMC. During the course of this review, AMC (i) verified that the hazard insurance met the minimum required amount of coverage in the guidelines, (ii) confirmed that the mortgage clause listed the lender’s name and “its successors and assigns,”, (iii) confirmed that the premium amount on both the hazard and flood insurance matched what was used in the DTI calculations, (iv) reviewed the tax certificate to verify and compare monthly escrows used to calculate DTI matched and that taxes were current, (v) confirmed that the flood certification was for the correct borrower, property, lender and mortgage loan number and was a “Life of Loan” certification, and (vi) completed other property specific items including (a) for condominium properties, confirming that the blanket policy met the minimum amount of coverage in the guidelines and (b) for properties in a flood zone per the flood certification, confirming that flood insurance met guideline requirements and met the minimum required amount of coverage in the guidelines.

Occupancy Review: AMC confirmed the property occupancy is consistent with the mortgage loan approval and borrowers’ application disclosure based solely on information contained in the mortgage loan file and any fraud report obtained in connection with the mortgage loan.

Guideline Review: During the course of the review, AMC confirmed the mortgage loan was originated in accordance with required guidelines by reviewing conformity of mortgage loan, transaction type, and borrower characteristics to stated guidelines. Mortgage characteristics examined included (i) DTI of the borrower, (ii) the LTV/TLTV/HTLTV, (iii) the credit score for each borrower, (iv) asset reserves of the borrower, (v) property type, (vi) property usage, and (vii) other property specific items including for condominium or cooperative properties, assessing whether the condominium or cooperative project adheres to required guidelines.

Fraud Review: AMC reviewed fraud report results in each mortgage loan file, to the extent present, in conjunction with source documents found in the mortgage loan file to assess the likelihood of any misrepresentations associated with the origination of the mortgage loan. If the mortgage loan file did not contain a fraud report and the counterparty did not produce one, AMC conditioned the mortgage loan for the missing fraud report product.

If a report was present, AMC reviewed the report for (i) any name variations for the borrowers, (ii) any social security number variations for the borrowers, (iii) any potential occupancy issues based on the borrower’s address history, (iv) any noted employment issues, and (v) any additional consumers associated with the borrower’s profile. If any findings were noted, AMC confirmed that such findings and/or variations were addressed by the originator in the origination of the asset or that such red flag issues were fully addressed via mortgage loan documentation provided.

Title Review: AMC’s review included a review of the chain of title and the duration of ownership by the seller or borrower (whichever is applicable) satisfied the guidelines. Included in this review was a verification of whether the appropriate vestee was on the title documentation (if a purchase, the seller; if a refinance, the borrower) and that the title commitment addressed issues such as assessments; covenants, conditions and restrictions; access problems; vicinity of property to military airports; prior leases; court orders/divorce decrees; public probate issues; foreclosures; bankruptcies; judgment liens; state and federal tax liens; environmental liens, and oil/gas leases.

Additional Review of Mortgage Loan File: AMC also reviewed the closing documents to ensure that the mortgage loan file information is complete, accurate, and contains consistent documentation. Included in the portion of the review are items such as reviewing for (i) evidence of primary mortgage insurance, (ii) if the property is located in an area that was listed as a FEMA disaster zone post origination, (iii) the presence of loan modification documents, and (iv) general conformity to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac approved formats at the time of origination.

Additionally, AMC verified (i) listed borrowers signed documents requiring signature, (ii) borrowers signing documents were eighteen (18) years or older at the time of the mortgage loan origination, (iii) that all riders required by the terms of the mortgage and mortgage note were attached to the respective document, (iv) that social security numbers across documents were consistent, and (v) debt-to-income ratio (“DTI(s)”) and/or loan-to-value ratios (“LTV(s)”) were used in the assessment of conformity guidelines.

Please be advised that AMC did not make a determination as to whether the mortgage loans complied with federal, state or local laws, constitutional provisions, regulations or ordinances that are not expressly enumerated below. There can be no assurance that the Review uncovered all relevant factors relating to the origination of the mortgage loans, their compliance with applicable law and regulations and the original appraisals relating to the mortgaged properties or uncovered all relevant factors that could affect the future performance of the mortgage loans. Furthermore, the findings reached by AMC are dependent upon its receiving complete and accurate data regarding the mortgage loans from mortgage loan originators and other third parties upon which AMC is relying in reaching such findings.

Please be further advised that AMC does not employ personnel who are licensed to practice law in the various jurisdictions, and the findings set forth in the reports prepared by AMC do not constitute legal advice or opinions. They are recommendations or conclusions based on information provided to AMC. Information contained in any AMC report related to the applicable statute of limitations for certain claims may not be accurate or reflect the most recent controlling case law. Further, a particular court in a particular jurisdiction may extend, not enforce or otherwise allow claims beyond the statute of limitations identified in the report based on certain factors, including the facts and circumstances of an individual mortgage loan. All final decisions as to whether to purchase or enter into a transaction related to any individual mortgage loan or the mortgage loans in the aggregate, any investment strategy and any legal conclusions, including the potential liability related to the purchase or other transaction involving any such mortgage loan or mortgage loans, shall be made solely by the Client, or other agreed upon party, that has engaged AMC to prepare its reports pursuant to its instructions and guidelines. The Client, or other agreed upon party, acknowledges and agrees that the scoring models applied by AMC are designed to identify potential risk and the Client, or other agreed upon party, assumes sole responsibility for determining the suitability of the information for its particular use. AMC does not make any representation or warranty as to the value of any mortgage loan or mortgage loan’s collateral that has been reviewed by AMC.

AMC reviewed each mortgage loan to determine, as applicable, to the extent possible and subject to the caveats below, whether the mortgage loan complies with:

FOR APPLICATION DATES BEFORE JANUARY 10, 2014 

(I) Federal Truth in Lending Act (“TILA”), as implemented by Regulation Z, 12 C.F.R. Part 1026, as set forth below:

(II) Federal Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (“RESPA”), as implemented by Regulation X, 12 C.F.R. Part 1024, as set forth below:

FOR APPLICATION DATES ON OR AFTER JANUARY 10, 2014

For mortgage loans with application dates on or after January 10, 2014 additional compliance testing was applicable and conducted by AMC. Testing during this period included all items as referenced in the FOR APPLICATION DATES BEFORE JANUARY 10, 2014 section above plus:

(VII) Federal Truth in Lending Act (“TILA”), as implemented by Regulation Z, 12 C.F.R. Part 1026 testing included:

(VIII) Federal Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (“RESPA”), as implemented by Regulation X, 12 C.F.R. Part 1024, as set forth below:

(IX) Sections 1411 and 1412 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank”) amending TILA, as implemented by Regulation Z, 12 C.F.R. 1026.43, as set forth below:

AMC reviews applicable loans for compliance with the ATR and QM rule requirements based upon each loan’s originator designation (Safe Harbor QM, Higher-priced QM, Temporary SHQM, Temporary HPQM, Non-QM, Exempt from ATR). AMC determines the loan’s status under the ATR or QM rule requirements and assigns a due diligence loan designation. Generally, AMC notes as a material exception if the due diligence findings do not confirm the originator’s loan designation. Additionally, AMC notes if an originator loan designation was not provided.

Qualified Mortgage

With respect to QM (Safe Harbor and Higher-priced) designated loans, AMC reviews the loan to determine whether, based on available information in the loan file: (i) the loan contains risky loan features and terms (e.g. an interest only feature or negative amortization), (ii) the “points and fees” exceed the applicable QM threshold, (iii) the monthly payment was calculated appropriately, (iv) the creditor considered and verified income or assets at or before consummation, (v) the creditor appropriately considered debt obligations, alimony and child support, and (vi) at the time of consummation, if the debt-to-income ratio exceeds 43% (calculated in accordance with Appendix Q to Regulation Z). This portion of the Review includes a recalculation of all income and liabilities with attention to the appropriate documentation of each source.

If a loan was designated as QM and identified as eligible for guarantee, purchase, or insurance by an applicable agency as permitted under the QM final rule, AMC reviews the loan to determine whether, based on available information in the loan file the loan satisfied (i), (ii) and (iii) in the preceding paragraph and reviews the Automated Underwriting System output within the file to confirm agency eligibility.

For each QM designated loan that satisfied the applicable requirements enumerated above, AMC then determines whether the loan is a Safe Harbor QM or Higher Priced QM by comparing the loan’s actual annual percentage rate, as recalculated, to the applicable average prime offer rate plus a certain applicable percentage.

The Review also includes determining, as applicable, whether a loan is a qualified mortgage as defined by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (24 C.F.R. 201 and 203 et seq.), and the Department of Veterans Affairs (38 C.F.R. Part 36 et seq.).

For each QM designated loan that does not satisfy the applicable requirements enumerated above, AMC then determines whether the loan complies with the ATR rule consideration and verification requirements and provides a due diligence designation of Non-QM compliant or non-compliant.

General Ability to Repay

AMC reviews the loan to determine whether, based on available information in the loan file, the creditor considered, as applicable, the following eight underwriting factors, and verified such information using reasonably reliable third-party records, at or before consummation: (i) the consumer’s current or reasonably expected income or assets, (ii) if the creditor relied on income from the consumer’s employment in determining repayment ability, the consumer’s current employment status; (iii) the consumer’s monthly payment; (iv) the consumer’s monthly payment on any simultaneous loan that the creditor knows or has reason to know will be made; (v) the consumer’s monthly payment for mortgage-related obligations; (vi) the consumer’s current debt obligations, alimony, and child support; (vii) the consumer’s monthly debt-to-income ratio or residual income; and (viii) the consumer’s credit history. This portion of the Review also focuses on full recalculation of income and debts, as well as the documentation provided to support each item used in originator’s determination of the ability to repay.

Note: for loans designated as QM – agency eligible, AMC will not review for compliance with the requirements of Appendix Q or General Ability to Repay.

AMC reviews loans to determine their conformity with the ATR/QM factors above, and is not rendering an independent assessment or opinion, warranting or representing that a loan will be deemed to conform to Safe Harbor, Rebuttable Presumption, ATR or other status based on any additional or revised factors that may be considered by legislative, regulatory, administrative or judicial authorities (“Authorities”). AMC does not represent or warrant that the factors for which it is reviewing the loans constitute all of the factors and/or criteria that Authorities may consider in determining the status of a loan. AMC’s review is based on information contained in the loan file at the time it is provided to AMC to review, and only reflects information as of that point in time.

(X) The Equal Credit Opportunity Act, as implemented by Regulation B, 12 C.F.R. Part 1002, as set forth below:

(XI) FIRREA Review

AMC confirmed that the appraiser and the appraisal made by such appraiser both satisfied the requirements of Title XI of FIRREA. Specifically, AMC reviewed the appraisal for conformity to industry standards, including ensuring the appraisal was complete, that the comparables and adjustments were reasonable and that pictures were provided and were accurate.

(8) Other: review and methodology.

The final review results reflected in the Overall Review Results Summary herein may include additional exceptions identified after AMC’s initial review was completed where loan level issues were identified by external parties as a result of separate, distinct quality control evaluation of the loan files. In such cases, any additional exceptions cited by any such quality control evaluation would either be reflected (i) as an open exception or (ii) remediated if required documentation and/or curative actions were provided to AMC. The exception totals reflected herein, and corresponding Exception Rating, include exceptions that were so subsequently identified, if any. Please note that only a limited number of loans, if any, reflected in the Review Results Summary were subject to such external quality control evaluations.
