      (2) Time Frames for Debenture Interest (a) Interest up to Date of Claim Settlement
      (i) Definition The Date of Initial Claim Settlement is the date that HUD approves
      the settlement of Part A of form HUD-27011 for payment. The Date of Final Claim
      Settlement is the date that HUD approves the settlement of Part B of form HUD-27011
      for payment. (ii) Standard Part A Provided that the Mortgagee has met all time
      requirements, HUD will pay debenture interest on the unpaid principal balance
      from the date of Default to the date of initial claim settlement. Part B HUD
      will compute interest on expenditures from the date of the submission of Part
      B to the date of the final claim settlement. (b) Interest up to Disbursement
      Date (i) Definition The Disbursement Date, as applicable to claims, is the date

      on Parts C, D and E, the Mortgagee must compute the debenture interest from
      the latter of the Disbursement Date or date of Default, to the earliest of the
      following dates: • Part A’s date of interest curtailment; • the date Part B
      is prepared; or • Part B’s date of interest curtailment. (iii)Required Documentation

      A. Title II Claims 2. Claim Types Handbook 4000.1 1577 Last Revised: 11/26/2025
      (B) Calculating Interest for an Expenditure Using Daily Interest Rate Factors
      (1) Definition The Daily Interest Rate Factor is the annual interest rate expressed
      as a decimal, divided by 365 (or 366 in leap years), and rounded to the fourth
      place to the right of the decimal, for the purpose of calculating interest on
      claimed expenditures. (2) Standard The Mortgagee must calculate the amount of
      interest to be claimed for an expenditure as follows: • identify the effective
      debenture interest rate based on the endorsement date of the mortgage for mortgages
      endorsed before January 23, 2004, or the date of Default for mortgages endorsed
      on or after January 23, 2004; • find the Daily Interest Rate Factor (see Appendix
      8.c Daily Interest Rate Factor in the Claim Filing Technical Guide) corresponding
      to the effective debenture interest rate; • multiply the Daily Interest Rate
      Factor by the amount paid; then • multiply this result by the number of Days
      (see Appendix 8.b Julian Calendar in the Claim Filing Technical Guide) from
      the date paid (or Default date, if later) for each line Item to the earlier
      of: o the date in Item 104 (submission date for Part B); or o the date of the
      earliest time requirement missed (Items 204 and 304). (3) Interest for Expenditures
      before the Date of Default (a) Standard If the Mortgagee makes an expenditure
      or advance before the date of Default, the Mortgagee may only calculate debenture
      interest from the date of Default. HUD will not pay debenture interest on expenses
      prior to the date of Default. (b) Required Documentation When filing the claim,
      the Mortgagee must: • enter the date of Default in the “Date Paid” column of
      Parts C, D, and E; and • place the actual date paid in parentheses, following
      the description of the expenditure or advance. IV. CLAIMS AND DISPOSITION A.

      (C) Calculating Interest for Default after Special Forbearance-Unemployment
      or Special Forbearance (1) Standard (a) Time Frame for Mortgage Note Interest
      When the Mortgagee files a claim for insurance benefits after a Default under
      a Special Forbearance (SFB) - Unemployment Agreement or Special Forbearance
      agreement, HUD will pay mortgage note interest for the period beginning on the
      due date of the last completely paid installment, up to the earliest of the
      following dates: • date of initiation of foreclosure proceedings; • date of
      acquisition of title and possession by DIL of Foreclosure; • date the Property
      was acquired by the Commissioner under a direct conveyance from the Borrower;
      or • 90 Days after the date of the Default of the SFB-Unemployment Agreement
      or Special Forbearance Agreement; or such other date as HUD may approve in writing
      prior to expiration of this 90-Day period. (b) Calculating Mortgage Note Interest
      Using Daily Interest Rate Factors To obtain the amount of accrued mortgage interest
      due, the Mortgagee must: • multiply the Daily Interest Rate Factor (see Appendix
      8.c Daily Interest Rate Factor in the Claim Filing Technical Guide) by the amount
      of the unpaid principal balance; and • multiply the result by the number of
      days from the due date of the last completely paid installment to the date selected
      above as the “ending date.” (c) Time Frame for Debenture Interest When the Mortgagee
      files a claim for insurance benefits after a Default under an SFB-Unemployment
      Agreement or SFB Agreement, HUD will pay debenture interest for the period beginning
      on the earliest of the following dates: • the date of initiation of foreclosure
      proceedings; • the date of acquisition of title and possession by DIL of Foreclosure;
      • the date the Property was acquired by the Commissioner under a direct conveyance
      from the Borrowers; or • 90 Days after the date of the Default of the SFB-Unemployment
      Agreement or SFB Agreement, or other such date as HUD may approve in writing
      prior to expiration of this 90-Day period. This debenture interest period ends
      on the date of the initial claim payment or the date of interest curtailment.
      IV. CLAIMS AND DISPOSITION A. Title II Claims 2. Claim Types Handbook 4000.1
      1579 Last Revised: 11/26/2025 (d) Calculating Debenture Interest HUD will compute
      the debenture interest at the time of payment of Part B, using the rate in effect
      at the time of the mortgage Default. Where “Mortgage Note Interest” is claimed
      on Part B because of an SFB-Unemployment Agreement or SFB Agreement, HUD will
      subtract from the claim any debenture interest already paid for the same period.
      (2) Interest on Claim Form The Mortgagee must reflect the use of an SFB-Unemployment
      Agreement or SFB Agreement by entering the following in Item 121: • From: Enter
      the date of the last completely paid installment after all funds received under
      the Agreement are applied according to the terms of the Mortgage (Item 8, part
      A). If no Mortgage Payments were made, enter a date 30 Days before the due date
      of the first scheduled payment (Item 7, Part A). • To: Enter the earliest of
      the following dates: o the date of initiation of foreclosure proceedings; o
      the date of acquisition of title and possession by DIL of Foreclosure; o the
      date the Property was acquired by the Commissioner under a direct conveyance
      from the Borrower; or o 90 Days, or such other time as approved by the MCM,
      following the date of the Borrower’s SFB-Unemployment Agreement or SFB Agreement
      failure. • Rate: Enter the mortgage interest rate as it appears on the mortgage
      Note. • Column C: Enter the amount of mortgage interest due. (3) Required Documentation
      The Mortgagee must send to HUD with Part B of form HUD-27011 a copy of the:
      • executed SFB-Unemployment Agreement or SFB Agreement; and • the payment history.
      The Mortgagee must retain copies of these documents in the Claim File. (D) Curtailment
      of Interest (1) Definition Curtailment of Interest is the cutoff of the accrued
      interest calculation as of the date on which the Mortgagee fails to take a required
      action. The Date of Interest Curtailment is the date that the Mortgagee first
      failed to take a required action. IV. CLAIMS AND DISPOSITION A. Title II Claims
      2. Claim Types Handbook 4000.1 1580 Last Revised: 11/26/2025 (2) Standard The
      Mortgagee must self-curtail interest on Single Family claims when it fails to
      meet HUD’s foreclosure, reasonable diligence, or reporting time frame requirements
      as of the date on which the required action should have been taken. If more
      than one time requirement is missed and there are no applicable extensions,
      the Mortgagee must calculate the interest to the earliest missed time requirement.
      (a) Failure to Timely Initiate Foreclosure The Mortgagee must curtail interest
      if it fails to meet the time requirement, including applicable extensions, to
      initiate foreclosure, regardless of whether later payments advanced the date
      of Default. (b) Failure to Give HUD Notice of Foreclosure The Mortgagee must
      curtail interest if it fails to meet the time requirement to give notice to
      HUD of the foreclosure via SFDMS. Until the Mortgagee properly reports the foreclosure
      initiation, the Mortgagee must reduce its claim by an amount equivalent to 30
      Days of interest for each SFDMS reporting cycle missed. (c) Failure to Meet
      Reasonable Diligence Time Frames The Mortgagee must curtail interest if it fails
      to meet HUD’s Reasonable Diligence Time Frames, including applicable extensions,
      in: • completing foreclosure; • acquiring good marketable title to and possession
      of the Property; and • if applicable, starting eviction or possessory action.
      (d) Failure to Meet Time Frame to Convey to HUD The Mortgagee must curtail interest
      if it fails to meet HUD’s time frame in conveying the Property to HUD. (3) Required
      Documentation The Mortgagee must indicate the interest curtailment date on form
      HUD-27011, as follows: • In Part A, the Mortgagee must enter the curtailment
      date in Item 31, ensuring that this date is before the date in Item 9. The Mortgagee
      must indicate in the “Mortgagee’s comments” section the reason for the curtailment.
      IV. CLAIMS AND DISPOSITION A. Title II Claims 2. Claim Types Handbook 4000.1
      1581 Last Revised: 11/26/2025 • When a curtailment date is entered in Item 204
      Part C and 304 Part D, the Mortgagee must indicate in the “Mortgagee’s comments”
      section of Part B the reason for the curtailment. The Mortgagee must retain
      copies of any approved extensions received from HUD in the Claim File. (4) Remittance
      of Claim Payments for Failure to Self-Curtail If a Mortgagee determines during
      its Quality Control (QC) review that it failed to self-curtail when submitting
      the claim, the Mortgagee must remit claim-related payments to HUD through the
      Claim Remittance feature in FHAC. For more information on remitting payments,
      see the Quick Start: Single Family Servicing Claims Processing guide. ii. Computation
      of Claim Amount The Mortgagee may claim up to 100 percent of the unpaid principal
      balance, plus allowable costs and debenture interest. (A) Damage to Conveyed
      Properties (1) Definition Surchargeable Damage is damage to a Property caused
      by fire, flood, earthquake, hurricane, tornado, boiler explosion (for condominiums
      only), or Mortgagee Neglect. Mortgagee Neglect is the Mortgagee’s failure to
      take action to preserve and protect the Property from the time it is determined
      (or should have been determined) to be vacant or abandoned, until the time it
      is conveyed to HUD. Non-Surchargeable Damage is damage to a Property that is
      not Surchargeable Damage. (2) Standard (a) HUD-Required Repairs of Damage to
      the Property In cases of Surchargeable Damage, HUD may require the Mortgagee
      to repair a Property before conveyance, and the Mortgagee may not request reimbursement
      for such repairs. In cases of Non-Surchargeable Damage that occurred during
      the time of the Mortgagee’s possession, HUD may require the Mortgagee to repair
      such damage before conveyance, and HUD will reimburse the Mortgagee for IV.
      CLAIMS AND DISPOSITION A. Title II Claims 2. Claim Types Handbook 4000.1 1582
      Last Revised: 11/26/2025 reasonable payments not in excess of the Secretary’s
      estimate of the cost of repair, less any insurance recovery. (b) Conveyance
      of Property with Surchargeable Damage Where HUD has authorized the Mortgagee
      to convey a damaged Property unrepaired, HUD will deduct from the mortgage insurance
      benefits the greater of: • any insurance recovery received by the Mortgagee;
      or • HUD’s estimate of the cost to repair the Property. (c) Estimating the Recovery
      Amount If the Mortgagee has not received the hazard insurance proceeds by the
      time of the Part A claim submission, the Mortgagee may estimate the recovery.
      (d) Adjustment of Recovery Amount If the actual recovery amount is less than
      the amount estimated, the Mortgagee may request reimbursement of the difference
      between the amount of proceeds expected and the proceeds received if both are
      greater than HUD’s estimate of damage. The Mortgagee is not entitled to a reimbursement
      if it would reduce the deduction in insurance benefits to less than HUD’s estimate
      of damage. (e) Mortgagee Certification for Properties Damaged by Fire (i) Definition
      The Mortgagee Certification for Properties Damaged by Fire is a certification
      prepared by the Mortgagee in order to convey to HUD certain eligible Properties
      damaged by fire. (ii) Standard When the Mortgagee meets all regulatory requirements
      for conveying a Property damaged by fire that was not covered by fire insurance
      at the time of the damage, or the amount of insurance coverage was inadequate
      to fully repair the damage, the Mortgagee must include a Mortgagee Certification
      at the time that a claim is filed to limit the deduction from insurance benefits
      to the amount of insurance recovery received by the Mortgagee, if any. The Mortgagee
      Certification must include the following statements: • at the time the Mortgage
      was insured, the Property was covered by fire insurance in an amount at least
      equal to the lesser of 100 IV. CLAIMS AND DISPOSITION A. Title II Claims 2.

      value of the improvements, or the principal balance of the Mortgage; • the insurer
      later canceled this coverage or refused to renew it for reasons other than nonpayment
      of premium; • the Mortgagee made diligent efforts within 30 Days of any cancellation
      or non-renewal of Hazard Insurance, and at least annually thereafter, to secure
      other coverage or coverage under a Fair Access to Insurance Requirements (FAIR)
      Plan, in an amount at least equal to the lesser of 100 percent of the insurable
      value of the improvements, or the principal balance of the Mortgage, or if coverage
      to such an extent was unavailable at a reasonable rate (as defined in 24 CFR
      § 230.379(a)(4)(i)), the greatest extent of coverage that was available at a
      reasonable rate; • the extent of coverage obtained by the Mortgagee was the
      greatest available at a reasonable rate, or if the Mortgagee was unable to obtain
      insurance, none was available at a reasonable rate; and • the Mortgagee performed
      all required Property P&P actions. (iii)Required Documentation The Mortgagee
      must upload into P260 a copy of the Mortgagee Certification and must retain
      a copy in the Claim File. (f) Conveyance without Approval of Property with Unrepaired
      Surchargeable Damage If a Mortgagee conveys a damaged Property to HUD without
      prior notice or approval, the MCM will notify the Mortgagee in writing of its
      Finding. Depending on the extent of the damage and the MCM’s Finding, HUD may
      reconvey the Property and require reimbursement for all expenses incurred in
      connection with such acquisition and Reconveyance, or deduct from the mortgage
      insurance benefits the greater of HUD’s estimate of the cost of repair or any
      insurance recovery. (3) Required Documentation The Mortgagee must document all
      Surchargeable Damage and Non- Surchargeable Damage to the Property on the claim
      form as follows: • for Surchargeable Damage, mark “Yes” in Item 24, complete
      Items 26 and 27, and identify the damage in the “Mortgagee’s comments” section;
      • for Non-Surchargeable Damage, mark “No” in Item 24, identifying the damage
      in the “Mortgagee’s comments” section; and • include amounts of hazard insurance
      recovery received in Line 118 or, if adjusting the amount based on a Part A

      that: • amounts paid for reimbursement were unnecessary, excessive, or unsupported;
      or • services claimed were not performed or were not performed in accordance
      with HUD guidance. (b) Mortgagee Determination If the Mortgagee determines any

      reimburse the Mortgagee for payment of assessments that were incurred from the
      foreclosure sale date to the date of conveyance. IV. CLAIMS AND DISPOSITION
      A. Title II Claims 2. Claim Types Handbook 4000.1 1589 Last Revised: 11/26/2025
      (ii) Fees Were Included in Foreclosure and Property Is in State Where HOA/Condominium
      Liens Can Take Priority When the Property is located in a state in which HOA/condominium
      liens can take priority over HUD’s first lien and these fees were included in
      the foreclosure and survived foreclosure, the Mortgagee may claim reimbursement
      for the negotiated amount required to obtain a release of outstanding HOA/Condominium
      Fees. HUD will only reimburse Mortgagees for HOA Fees up to the total value
      of the periodic HOA/Condominium Assessments due and paid from the date the Borrower

      is not located in a state in which HOA/Condominium Fees can take priority over
      HUD’s first lien, the fees were included in the foreclosure, and there is a
      lien on the Property that survives foreclosure, the Mortgagee may claim reimbursement
      for the negotiated amount required to obtain a release of outstanding HOA/Condominium
      Fees. HUD will only reimburse Mortgagees for HOA Fees up to the state law mandated
      amount. (c) Where HOA/Condominium Fees Do Not Survive Foreclosure or Create

      in accordance with HUD guidance. If the Mortgagee force-places a Private Flood
      Insurance (PFI) policy to satisfy the mandatory Flood Insurance purchase requirement,
      the PFI must meet the requirements for Flood Insurance. (1) Calculating the
      Hazard and Flood Insurance Premium Refund If the amount of the actual premium
      refund is not known at the time Part B of form HUD-27011 is prepared, the Mortgagee
      must calculate an estimate on a “short rate” basis as follows: • determine the
      number of Days the policy was in effect, from the effective date of the policy
      to the earlier of the cancellation date or the date the deed to the Secretary
      was filed for record (see Appendix 8.b Julian Date Calendar of the Claim Filing
      Technical Guide); • use the Short Rate Method Table in Appendix 8.a of the Claim
      Filing Technical Guide to determine the percentage of the premium utilized,
      and subtract this figure from 100 to determine the percentage of premium remaining;
      and • multiply the percentage of premium remaining by the total premium to determine
      the estimated amount of the premium refund. (a) Actual Hazard and Flood Insurance
      Premium Refund More than Estimated Refund If the actual premium return is $10
      or more than the Mortgagee’s estimated amount, the Mortgagee must file a supplemental
      remittance. (b) Actual Hazard and Flood Insurance Premium Less than Estimated
      Refund If the actual premium return is less than the Mortgagee’s estimated refund,
      the Mortgagee may request a refund by: • filing a supplemental claim form; and
      • providing a copy of the insurance carrier’s statement of the return premium.

      that jurisdiction. If the Mortgagee submits a Part B claim with an estimated
      hazard or flood insurance premium refund, but the refund was not received, the
      Mortgagee may submit a supplemental claim for reimbursement of the estimated
      hazard or flood insurance premium refund entered on line 109 of the Part B claim,
      provided the Mortgagee includes documentation to HUD demonstrating: • that the
