or certified copies. All certifications
must be made by the recording official.’’
Also, in the next sentence, changed ‘‘are
unrecorded’’ to ‘‘were not recorded’’,
and referred to the form of
Indemnification Agreement in Part B,
item 2.
Part B, item 8—changed references to
the ‘‘Uniform Commercial Code’’ to
‘‘UCC’’ since the term was defined in
Part A, item 2. Also changed ‘‘ATIMA’’
to ‘‘as their interests may appear’’ for
clarity. Under ‘‘Lapsed UCC filings’’,
removed ‘‘as applicable’’ at the end of
the first paragraph. Under ‘‘UCC filing
was never filed’’, the following sentence
was added at the end of the first
paragraph: ‘‘The mortgagee must also
submit an Indemnification Agreement
that contains the following language and
is otherwise acceptable to HUD:’’.
Part B, item 8—under ‘‘Lapsed UCC
filings * * *’’ and ‘‘UCC filing was
never filed’’—revised the paragraphs
regarding Indemnification Agreements
to include the requisite language, so that
the Legal Instructions would be
formatted like Part B, items 1 and 2.
Part B, item 9—changed ‘‘the
Departmental regulations’’ to ‘‘HUD
regulations’’ for clarity.
Part B, item 10 has been revised to
indicate that the evidence of property
insurance is acceptable if accompanied
by an affidavit from the mortgagee that
the hazard insurance policy is in full
force and effect as of the date of
assignment to the Secretary, since
mortgagees are no longer able to obtain
an ACORD that does not state it is for
informational purposes only and does
not confer rights upon the holder of the
policy. Requisite language for the
mortgagee’s affidavit has been added.
Part B, item 12—‘‘project loan’’ was
changed to ‘‘Note’’ for accuracy, since
the endorsement is on the Note.
Part B, item 13 has been added to
require submission of additional
documents for loans insured under
Section 232 of the National Housing Act
and processed under LEAN, including,
but not limited to, an assignment of the
Master Lease and all corollary
Subordination and Non-Disturbance
Agreements, the Deposit Account
Control Agreement and any Notice of
Exclusive Control that has been
delivered to the Bank (as defined in the
Deposit Account Control Agreement),
and the Intercreditor Agreement and all
riders thereto.
Part B, former items 13, 14 and 15
have been re-numbered to items 14, 15,
and 16, respectively.
Part B, re-numbered item 15 has been
revised in the first full paragraph after
the Note, to indicate that if title
insurance issues cannot be resolved
within the deadline ‘‘(including
extensions)’’, interest will be curtailed
‘‘or the mortgage may be reassigned to
the mortgagee, thereby requiring the
mortgagee to reimburse the Secretary
the amounts paid plus interest.’’
Part B, re-numbered item 16 has been
revised to change ‘‘HUD’’ to ‘‘the
Secretary’’ for consistency.
Part B, final Note at end, has been
revised to add that HUD reserves the
right ‘‘in its sole discretion’’ to refuse to
accept an Indemnification Agreement.
The revised Legal Instructions, which
reflects new language added in bold,
and language removed in strikeout is
attached as Appendix A.
