Introduction

Welcome to LenStar, the data communications and work flow management tool of choice for the mortgage banking industry. LenStar is not vaporware; it has a proven client base that has been installed in over 450 sites since June, 1996. Change is here to stay. Nowhere is this more true than in the world of default servicing. There is a continued demand for improved control of critical processes, elimination of timeconsuming tasks, compression of time frames, and meeting internal requirements. The goal is to answer these demands while lowering the cost of servicing, by increasing the number of loans handled per employee. This creates a constantly evolving and challenging environment. One answer to this challenge is the interactive data exchange tool called LenStar. LenStar allows lenders and attorneys involved in servicing loans in foreclosure and bankruptcy to share information quickly and easily. LenStar also provides improved information management for the lender and the attorney via online work lists. In addition, LenStar enables you to run a variety of reports that can be saved in Excel format. And LenStar provides an increased capacity to react to compliance issues before penalties are assessed. LenStar’s communication and tracking software gives servicers and their attorneys the ability to communicate via computer. This virtually eliminates the need for telephone calls and faxes. Paperless referrals take a fraction of the time normally required. As a result, LenStar software eliminates mail and copier costs. The LenStar system (which is based on templates controlled by each servicer) dictates events to be completed on a file, automatically assigns responsibility for each step to the attorney or servicer, and prepares a timeline for completion of each event and its case. Attorneys and servicers update cases on LenStar, and the information systematically flows back to the lender’s servicing system, at their discretion. Now, you can work faster and more efficiently than ever before by using the wealth of features LenStar provides.

4.2 Searching for a Loan To search for a loan, click the “Find” button, and LenStar’s search screen will appear:

In the Search By group box located near the top of the screen, you can choose from six different ways to access any loan. You can search by: • • • • • •

Loan Number Investor Loan Number Current Borrower Street Address LenStar Number Vendor File Number

Your chosen Search By method will be displayed to the left of the Search Grid, next to the action indicator arrow. If a file is closed, the loan number field will be shown in red:

In this example, you will select Loan Number as the searching method, but if you later select another Search By method, you will follow the same steps: 1. Click the “Loan Number” button. 2. Enter a loan number into the Search Text field and click “Begin Search”. If an exact match is found, the Search screen will close, and the Event Tracking screen will appear. If your loan Issue 1.00 LBG-I-LS-045-012 LenStar Training Manual

Doc owner – Training Mgr Printed Documents Uncontrolled London Bridge Group

Page 10 of 123 Printed on: Last Issue Date:

LenStar number was not found, a “No Exact Match! – Found Closest!” message will appear in the Status Bar at the bottom of the screen. If your loan number was found multiple times, a “Multiple Actions. Please Select!” message will appear in the Status Bar at the bottom of the screen. Inputting complete Search Text is not necessary; you may enter partial information, and the system will take you to the first file that meets the criteria entered. When you do this, a “No Exact Match! - Found Closest!” message will appear in the Status Bar at the bottom of the screen. 3. If you see your loan listed in the display grid, use your mouse pointer to highlight it. 4. Click “Select”, or double-click the loan in the display grid. The Search screen will close, and the Event Tracking screen for your loan will appear. After you have done your search, you will move from the Search screen to the Event Tracking screen. The bar at the top of your screen identifies in which module you are working. A Priority message may appear to advise you of important items that need to be addressed. Click “OK” to close the Priority message. Once you are in the Event Tracking screen, you can choose any of LenStar’s available options. This will allow you to view information pertaining to your loan, as well as to receive help. LenStar loan cases currently fall into one of five actions: Foreclosure (F), Bankruptcy (B), Eviction (E), Proof of Claim (P), and Deed in Lieu (D). On the list of loans, the characters F, B, E, P, and D appear at the far left to indicate the case type, which is also called “action type” or “action indicator”. This designation coincides with the type of Event Tracking the loan will have.

CHAPTER 2: WORKLIST

The WorkList is a real-time queuing system, which allows the loan processor to work with items in need of attention in a quick, efficient manner. For each processor assigned to a specific loan, the WorkList displays action items chronologically, from most delinquent to least delinquent. You also have the option of viewing incomplete work for all processors. When you use LenStar’s WorkList, loans no longer fall through the cracks. You can easily access items needing attention. Since the system automatically navigates to the correct screen and loan to process work, there is a minimal amount of training required. The WorkList provides management with a simple method of viewing work to be done by the processors. It is important to review all WorkList items daily to meet the servicer’s needs in a timely manner. 5.1 Working the WorkList To activate the WorkList, click the WorkList tool from the toolbar. When you first open the WorkList, File History items will be displayed by default. The File History WorkList module is an important feature of the system. It alerts you to all incoming messages from the servicer. File History is where you will receive notification of new referrals. To work through all items in the WorkList, you must work through all modules in the WorkList, including: • • • • • •

File History (enables communication with the loan servicer) Calendar Items (enables scheduling follow-up items for future dates) Servicer Requests (enables obtaining requests from the servicer) Vendor Requests (enables requesting items from the servicer) Hold System (enables placing holds on loans) Foreclosure, Bankruptcy, Proof of Claim, Deed in Lieu, and Eviction Tracking (enable tracking event items for various loans and their action types)

1. To work through the various modules, click the button for the appropriate module from the Module Group on the WorkList screen. The screen shows all loans that need attention in the selected corresponding module. 2. To pick a WorkList item, double-click the item that you want to view from the list, or select the item with your pointer and click “Select”. This will open the appropriate screen and loan for the WorkList item you selected. Once the WorkList takes you to the appropriate screen, you must follow the instructions for that module in order to complete the specific task. The items in the WorkList are displayed in projected date order, with the oldest item at the top. 5.2 Changing the Effective Date By default, the WorkList displays items that are due or past due as of the current date. If you want to view items in the WorkList coming due, change the Effective date to display them. Changing the Effective date does not affect File History items, because File History contains unread items. 1. Double-click the date in the Effective field at the bottom of the screen to change the WorkList effective date. LenStar’s Date Selection Box will appear.

2. Change the Set Date To field by using the navigation buttons to choose your date, or by entering the date in the box in the upper right corner. When you choose your date, the new date will appear in the Effective field, and the upcoming items appear in your WorkList. See Chapter 11: LenStar’s Date Selection Box for detailed instructions on the use of the date box. 5.3 Showing All Processors The WorkList defaults to “Show All Processors” to review all work requiring completion for a particular process or module. If you want to view a list for a particular LenStar processor in your office, uncheck “Show All Processors”. Move to the Processor Name field. Use the dropdown arrow to see a list of processors. When you find your choice, double-click the name. A list of loans for that individual will appear. 5.4 Color Coding All WorkList Tracking modules use Color Coding for ease in determining when someone last accessed a loan. There is a color code legend located on the WorkList screen, indicating how many days each color represents. Once you have accessed a loan on the WorkList, the background for the tracking element is displayed in dark gray; this shows if you have accessed an item on the current day. If the WorkList item is incomplete, it will remain on the WorkList until completed. Only tracking module items turn dark gray once they have been accessed in the WorkList. 5.5 Printing Your WorkList You can print a hard copy of each WorkList module. To print the WorkList for all of the processors, check the Show All Processors field. The WorkList will print only items assigned to the person logged onto LenStar, if the field is not checked. 1. Click the button next to the module to print. 2. Click Print WorkList. A Print Preview screen will appear displaying all items on your WorkList. 3. At the top of the Print Preview screen, click “Print” to print or “Save” to save. 4. When finished, click “Close”. You will return to the WorkList screen. Only the WorkList items for the chosen module will be printed.

CHAPTER 4: EVENT TRACKING

The Event Tracking module contains projected and completed dates for tracked event items. It also tracks the current investor compliance status, allowable fee information, and outcome of bankruptcy hearings. In Event Tracking, the current status of all critical matters is readily available and easy to read. For your convenience, delinquent scheduled events appear in red. The Investor Compliance for foreclosure indicates whether the vendor is meeting the investor-allowable time frames and, when applicable, shows the number of days a loan is on hold. The Event Tracking module also serves as an excellent training tool for incoming personnel, since the module helps distinguish which events are personnel’s responsibility and which are the servicer’s responsibility. Each Event Tracking screen displays the Tracking Elements, Projected Dates, and Completed Dates. The servicer sets up the Tracking Element field, which tracks the steps in the loan process. The elements chosen for each loan will differ for each state, company and client. The servicer will set up the target table to determine the completion dates for items in the Projected Dates column. The vendor will populate the Completed Dates column by entering each item’s completion date. To activate Event Tracking, click “Event Tracking” (pencil and paper icon) from the tool bar. 7.1 Overview of Tracking Elements The servicer will set up the tracking elements on the Event Tracking screen. The tracking elements vary by action (foreclosure, bankruptcy, etc.), state, process (judicial or nonjudicial), loan type, and servicer requirements. The servicer will set up time frames to create the Projected dates. In this way, Event Tracking screens are used to track the progress of a loan.

Past Due Item: All loan action types (excluding Deed in Lieu) display the Original and Re-Projection History columns. Issue 1.00 LBG-I-LS-045-012 LenStar Training Manual

LenStar

On or before the Projected date, your firm is required to complete each work element on the Event Tracking screen. If an item becomes past due, the Projected date field will appear in red on the WorkList. For more information, see Chapter 2: WorkList. Projected dates can be changed, but a reason must be entered into the field each time a date is changed or removed. For documentation purposes, the reason for the change is automatically sent to the File History. When a tracking element is completed, enter a date into the Completion field. Upon scheduling an actual sale date, your office must enter that date into the Scheduled Sale Date field below the Tracking Elements field. If your program has been set up with a tracking element for the Scheduled Sale Date, update the Projected date. Changing the Tracking Elements Screen Size: Follow this process to change the size of the Tracking Elements screen for each action type. 1. Double-click in the Tracking Elements area. The area will expand to display the Original and Re-projection History columns for each element. Re-projection History presents the number of times a date has been re-projected, and the tally for the total number of days from the Original Projected date to the current Projected date. As applicable for each element and action, the current Projected and Completed dates will appear. 2. Double-click in the Tracking Elements area. The screen returns to its original size. Updating a Projected Date: 1. To update the projected date, double-click the date from the Projected field. LenStar’s Date Selection Box will appear. 2. Either enter the projected date in the Set Date To field, or use LenStar’s Date Selection Box to choose a new projected date. For more information, see Chapter 11: LenStar’s Date Selection Box. 3. Click “Save”. The Quick File History dialog box will appear. LenStar will automatically fill in the Topic field; however, you are required to enter a reason for your change.

An Information message will appear reading, “Re-project subsequent Servicer tracking elements?” 7. Click “Yes” to re-project all subsequent tracking elements by the same number of days as the changed element. Click “No” if you do not want subsequent projected dates to change. Both the Projected and the Reprojection History fields are updated. A tracking element with a Completed date cannot be re-projected. Entering a Completed Date: Enter a completion date only when a work element has actually been completed. LenStar will not allow you to enter a completion date occurring in the future. 1. To mark a work element complete, double-click in the Completed field. LenStar’s Date Selection Box will appear. 2. You can enter the completed date in the Set Date To field, or you can use LenStar’s Date Selection Box to choose a date. For more information, see Chapter 11: LenStar’s Date Selection Box. 3.

For instructions to add or edit a date in the Vendor Closing Date field, refer to the Overview of Tracking Elements at the beginning of this chapter. Investor Compliance: Investor Compliance is a helpful, reliable feature that can be used as a tool to monitor progress on a loan. The Investor Compliance area includes the Open Date, which is opened in LenStar. Occasionally, this date differs from the date the servicer opened the loan, the date you received the loan, the projected date, and/or the tracking date. A display of the number of days from open to sale appears in the Investor Compliance area. LenStar compares the number of days with the Allowable Days field to show whether the loan is progressing on schedule. The investor determines the number of Allowable Days, which is the number of days the loan type allows for the completion of any loan. If there is no date entered in the Scheduled Sale Date or Completed Date field for the Foreclosure Sale Held work element, LenStar will use the Projected Sale Date to determine the number of days from open to sale. If a loan is or has been on hold, the number in the Days on Hold field is subtracted from the total days open, providing an accurate Open-to-Sale Days calculation. If a loan is on hold at the time you are viewing it, the Days on Hold field will be highlighted in red. The Variance field shows how many days ahead (in positive numbers) or how many days Behind (in negative numbers) the process is, in comparison to Allowable Days. If the loan is progressing on time, the Status field will be highlighted in green; if it is past due, the field will be highlighted in red and display the word “Late”. Attorney Fees: Allowable Fee refers to the loan fee. The allowable fee is based on the loan state and action type. If your office has requested additional attorney fees and the servicer has approved them, the servicer will note this information in the Allowable Fee and Additional Fees Approved fields. To change either of these two fields, address it with the servicer through File History. For more information, see Chapter 5: File History. If the servicer is not online and the foreclosure is contested, check the Litigated MatterRequires Evidentiary Hearing box. Otherwise, the servicer has access to that field. Bankruptcy Information: Bankruptcy information is accessible by only the servicer, but you can view the information from your screen. If your office has any bankruptcy information, forward it to the servicer via File History. If a bankruptcy is filed while a foreclosure is in process, the Issue 1.00 LBG-I-LS-045-012 LenStar Training Manual

Temporary Hold: Prior to the completion of a bankruptcy relief loan, you may negotiate a consent order, an adequate protection order, or other stipulations to provide for the resumption of payments. Since the court has not yet granted a stay relief, it is not appropriate to close the bankruptcy relief loan. In this case, open a Bankruptcy Hold. By opening a Bankruptcy Hold for the bankruptcy relief loan, you stop the bankruptcy relief timeline from continuing to count the elapsed days in the case. To add a hold to a loan, see Chapter 9: Hold System. When you add a hold to the loan, start the hold with the date of the adequate protection order or payment stipulation. For the Hold Reason, select Stipulation /APO. Do not end the Hold until the debt defaults in payment and it is necessary to resume activity in the bankruptcy relief case. Once you have placed a hold with Stipulation/APO as the reason, and opened a BankruptcyPOC loan, update the Bankruptcy-POC case information. This will begin tracking monthly pre-confirmation payments to be made under the stipulation or adequate protection order. Early Closure: Occasionally, you may need to close a bankruptcy relief case before actually obtaining a stay relief. If so, follow the instruction under the Closing a Loan heading at the beginning of this chapter. The close reasons for a bankruptcy relief case include Stay Relief, Abandonment, Discharge, Opened in Error, Loan Current, Case Converted, and Dismissed: Voluntary by Debtor. Multiple Cases: Whether or not the same party filed a new bankruptcy, open a new bankruptcy relief case for each new bankruptcy filed on the same loan. Since they will have been filed on different dates, your filing of a new bankruptcy will keep the Event Tracking for each bankruptcy relief case separate. 7.4 Proof of Claim Tracking Screen From the Search screen, identify a bankruptcy-proof of claim (POC) loan by the letter “P” appear in the far left column of the screen. A bankruptcy-proof of claim case is a separate case entry from a bankruptcy relief case. For more information, see Chapter 1: Searching for a Loan. The proof of claim case type enables reporting on tracking elements related to the underlying bankruptcy case. For example, in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidation case, elements include petition date, date the proof of claim was filed, debtor’s discharge date, and date the Chapter Issue 1.00 LBG-I-LS-045-012 LenStar Training Manual

Doc owner – Training Mgr Printed Documents Uncontrolled London Bridge Group

Page 54 of 123 Printed on: Last Issue Date:

LenStar 7 Trustee filed its report. In a Chapter 11, 12, or 13 bankruptcy re-organization case, elements include the petition date, date the debtor filed its plan, date the proof of claim was filed, confirmation hearing date, and date the court confirmed the plan. The LenStar Proof of Claim module enables you to generate a facsimile of the official Proof of Claim form, ready for filing with the court, based on loan information entered during the Order Entry process. Difference Between Bankruptcy Cases: There are two types of bankruptcy cases in LenStar: Proof of Claim and Motion for Relief. LenStar distinguishes between the two sets of tracking elements each of these cases has. With a Proof of Claim, you can track elements related to the underlying bankruptcy case. In a Relief case, you can track elements related to the motion for relief from the automatic stay, filed within the underlying bankruptcy case. The two types of bankruptcies have different projected time frames and must be tracked separately. One time frame difference is that in a Chapter 7 liquidation case, the Proof of Claim tracking elements cover 75 days, while a Relief case covers only 35 days from the File Received date to the Stay Relief Granted date. Case tracking elements for the Proof of Claim cases in Chapters 11, 12, and 13 are different from the Relief time frames for the same chapters. The Proof of Claim time frame for Chapters 11, 12, and 13 re-organization cases takes 120 days; the Relief time frame for the same chapters takes only 35 days. Some investors require firms to open a Proof of Claim case for every re-organization case, whether it is a Chapter 11, 12, or 13. When grounds exist to file for a motion for relief from the automatic stay, these investors expect counsel to open a Bankruptcy Relief case. The screens for each of the bankruptcy cases display different information as well. The Proof of Claim screen enables the vendor to track the elements that relate to the underlying bankruptcy case, such as the date the debtor filed its plan, or the date the court confirms the plan. The Relief screen enables the vendor to track the elements related to obtaining relief from the stay. Proof of Claim Tracking Elements: When you choose a Proof of Claim case from the Search screen, LenStar will display the tracking elements in the top left of the screen. The Title bar at the top of the screen will indicate which bankruptcy chapter the Proof of Claim is. For example, the Title bar may read, “LenStar (P-13) - Current Loan: POC/John Doe/88888888 - Event Tracking.” (P-13) indicates the Proof of Claim is a Chapter 13 and will display Chapter 13 tracking elements.

CHAPTER 5: FILE HISTORY

File History is the backbone of the LenStar System. This module is used for all correspondence that takes place between the loan servicer and the vendor. Information transmitted previously via phone or fax is sent through the File History module, where it becomes a permanent part of the loan’s documentation. As a result, file histories cannot be edited or deleted. When each history is entered and read, the system dates and time stamps the action. The other modules in LenStar automatically write to File History whenever information is added or changed in the system. File histories upload to your host system automatically with the LenStar Host-Post module. All conversations through File History can be uploaded to your loan servicing system automatically with the LenStar Host-Post module, eliminating duplicate data entry. To activate File History, choose the “Activate” icon from the tool bar.

Two tabs (To Servicer and From Servicer) comprise the File History screen. The selected tab will determine the type of information viewed. These tabs include the Topic and Message areas. The Topic area is the first sub-section. It tells you the topic of the message, including: whom it is from, the date it was sent, the date it was read, and the name of the person who read the message. Below the Topic area is the Message area. Here you will find any additional information or messages pertaining to the loan. The File History screen contains the same options for the different action types. Make sure the history item to add or edit corresponds with the loan that began your search. If not, return to the Search screen and choose the appropriate loan before following these instructions. Issue 1.00 LBG-I-LS-045-012 LenStar Training Manual

8.1 Viewing a File History Message If a message is too long to fit in the bottom of the To Servicer or From Servicer screens, click “View” to see the message in full screen mode. You can also view the message in full screen mode by double-clicking in the message area.

If the message runs off the sides of the screen, click “Word Wrap On”. The message will be displayed within the viewing area.

CHAPTER 6: CALENDAR SYSTEM

LenStar’s Calendar System is an electronic calendar used for scheduling follow-up on future dates. The Calendar System keeps tasks and follow-ups current. It also eliminates the use of sticky notes and paper calendars, while allowing supervisors and co-workers to follow-up on items quickly and easily. The Calendar System is designed to track follow-up items that do not delay the processing of the loan. Once added, a calendar item will appear on your daily WorkList in due date order, with the oldest item at the top of the list. Unlike items in the File History, the servicer cannot see items that have been placed in a vendor’s Calendar System. Similarly, your office cannot see items that the servicer has entered into their Calendar System. To activate the Calendar System, click the “Calendar” icon from the tool bar.

The Calendar System screen contains the same options for each action type. Be sure the calendar item to add or edit corresponds with the loan that initiated your search. If it doesn’t match, return to the Search screen and choose the appropriate loan before following these instructions.

10 CHAPTER 7: REQUEST SYSTEM The Request System module is broken down into two sections: Information Requested from the Vendor and Information Requested from the Servicer. When information is requested, the item will be sent via File History and will appear in the WorkList, in both the Servicer and Vendor Request areas. Only the user requesting the information can mark request items as “Complete”; this ensures that the request will remain active until the item has been completed to the satisfaction of the requestor. The Request System is an effective tool for loan servicers to use when evaluating items that are causing delays in the processing of delinquent matters. This module tracks the response time of both the loan servicer and the vendor. The Request System does not overlook critical items, and it eliminates paper requests as well as the use of memory-retentive recall systems. As with File History, you can use the Request System to send messages; however, unlike File History, the Request System enables you to schedule a Due Date to appear in the WorkList. The request item will remain on both your WorkList and the servicer’s WorkList, until your office marks it as complete. Because the items in the Request System are of great importance, you need to dial into the LenStar Hub after entering an item. If you neglect to dial-in, the information will stay in the local system instead of transferring to the servicer. To activate the Request System, choose the “Activate” icon from the tool bar. The Request System screen contains the same options for each action type. Be sure the request item to add or edit corresponds with the loan that originated your search. If it does not match, return to the Search screen and choose the appropriate loan before following these instructions.

11 CHAPTER 8: DOCUMENT TRACKING Document Tracking is an optional feature. It is beneficial to vendors in states that require original documents. The Document Tracking module tracks documents sent from the loan servicer to the vendor. It also tracks the return of critical documents from the vendor to the servicer. By using the Document Tracking module, you will have additional accountability and easy identification when tracking the location of critical documents. When documents must be retrieved from the courts, Document Tracking is particularly useful for reinstated foreclosure loans. Unlike many systems, the Document Tracking module does not lose the ability to track documents once a case has been closed. Document Tracking also provides an easy method for documenting the path of original documents. When a necessary document is not received, use the Request System (Chapter 9) to send a message to the servicer. To maintain the list of documents, choose Utilities>Manager’s Utilities>Add/Edit Documents. For more information, see Chapter 11: Manager’s Utilities. To activate Document Tracking, click the Document Tracking icon from the tool bar.

The Document Tracking screen contains the same options for each action type. Be sure the document to add or edit corresponds with the loan that began your search. If not, return to the Search screen and choose the appropriate loan before following these instructions. Issue 1.00 LBG-I-LS-045-012 LenStar Training Manual

12 CHAPTER 9: HOLD SYSTEM When a loan is unable to proceed due to non-routine processing requirements (such as a foreclosure that was pre-empted due to a bankruptcy filing) you can use the Hold System to place the hold on a loan. The Hold System module identifies cases that are on hold, as well as the reason for the delay in the process. Moreover, the Hold System adds accountability and allows quick identification of all of the cases that are no longer being processed. Additionally, the Hold System is a convenient tool for loss mitigation personnel. Through the use of the Hold System, LenStar automatically deducts the number of days a matter is on hold, from the total number of open-to-sale days when calculating vendor performance versus investor time frames. The system requires an explanation for the hold, which is sent as a File History to either the vendor or servicer for review. When you place a loan on hold, the loan will not appear on your WorkList. You can enter multiple holds with the Hold System. To activate the Hold System, click the “Hold” icon from your tool bar.

The Hold System screen contains the same options for each different action type. Be sure the hold item you want to add or edit corresponds with the loan that began your search. If not, return to the Search screen and choose the appropriate loan before following these instructions. 12.1 Adding a Hold

13 CHAPTER 10: ELECTRONIC MAIL The Electronic Mail (e-mail) feature of LenStar is used only for non-loan related correspondence between the vendor and the servicer. Since this is not a Web-based feature, only individuals with access to the LenStar Network can use the e-mail function. Since you can send and receive messages only from LenStar processors, you cannot transmit loan information via e-mail; instead, the information transfers through File History (Chapter 5). When you decide to compose e-mail using LenStar, you will be reminded of its function by a message that reads, “Please remember that e-mail is not to be used for loan related correspondence. Use file history for all loan related correspondence.” To activate the Electronic Mail, click the “Mail” icon from the toolbar.
