Report on Title V - Privacy and Restrictions on Disclosing
Nonpublic Personal Information

DISCLOSURE OF NONPUBLIC PERSONAL INFORMATION - GENERAL PURPPOSE

In compliance with Title V of The Financial Modernization Act, Fast Loan Processing has an affirmative and continuing obligation to respect the privacy of its customers and to protect the security and confidentiality of those customers' nonpublic personal information, as that term is defined. The Federal Trade Commission is the regulatory body governing non-depository institutions (mortgage bankers) relative to this Act. Fast Loan Processing's Privacy Policy has been drafted in compliance with the requirements of this Act, which has the purpose of:

• ensuring the security and confidentiality of customer records and information;
• protecting against any anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of such records; and
• protecting against unauthorized access to or use of such records or information which could result in substantial harm or inconvenience to any customer.
  

PRIVACY POLICY

Fast Loan Processing will not, directly or through its affiliates, disclose to a nonaffiliated third party any nonpublic personal information without first providing notice to the consumer and affording them the opportunity to "opt out" of the sharing arrangement.

Fast Loan Processing's current policy is NOT to share any non-public personal information with any nonaffiliated third party source except as necessary for the express intention of processing and closing of a borrower's loan application and the servicing and selling of a borrower's loan. This generally includes obtaining information from credit agencies, verification of assets, income, or employment or sharing information with third party service providers for the hazard, flood or private mortgage insurance coverage, servicing, auditing and enforcement of the Note and Deed of Trust.

At this time, the "opt out" provision is not applicable due to our policy of NOT sharing any non-public personal information with any nonaffiliated third party except for the purposes indicated above. The definition of non-personal public information includes not only privately obtained borrower information such as social security numbers, credit histories, depository and income and employment information but also includes customer lists which include loan numbers and other non-public data.

No employee is authorized to share any borrower's non-public personal information for the purpose of solicitation for additional products or services or any other purpose.

SECURITY AND CONFIDENTIALITY

• Only those employees whose specific job duties require access to the borrowers' loan files and therefore their non-public personal information may be in possession of any loan file. We are to ensure there is no unauthorized access of loan files in our office.

Fast Loan Processing employees are given this notice:
