Examiner’s Comments

1. The subject loan is purported by Bayview Loan Servicing, LLC to be owned by four different
    trusts at four different times.

2. No documents were presented in this examination which shows that the Fixed Rate Note has
    been endorsed and that the Mortgage has been assigned to any entity that is or that appears to
    be a party in any of the four trusts. The trustee in all of these trusts is US Bank, NA.

3. All of the aforementioned trusts appear to have been established in order to securitize 
    delinquent home mortgage loans. It is probable all of these trusts were established in order to
    qualify as Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduits (REMIC). However, none of these trusts had
    documents on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission as of the date of the 
    examination.
