IMPORTANT

You are not required to

complete a shared appreciation agreement transaction just because you have

received this disclosure or completed an

application.

If you proceed with this transaction,

the shared appreciation agreement provider will have a lien on your home, and

you would agree to pay the provider a portion of your home's value or the

future increase in your home's value at the end of the agreement.

If you complete the transaction and do

not meet your obligations under the shared appreciation agreement, you could

lose your home and any money you have put into it.

The information in this

disclosure is based on the shared appreciation agreement for which you have

applied and provides examples of the amounts you may be required to pay at

the end of the agreement. If the agreement is terminated or settled in

connection with the sale of your home, your obligation to your provider may

include some or all of

the sale

proceeds. The terms of a shared appreciation agreement are different from

those of a traditional mortgage loan

agreement for which you have

applied and provides examples of the amounts you may be required to pay at

the end of the agreement. If the agreement is terminated or settled in

connection with the sale of your home, your obligation to your provider may

include some or all of

the sale

proceeds. The terms of a shared appreciation agreement are different from

those of a traditional mortgage loan. Please read this disclosure, the shared

appreciation agreement transaction documents, and all other materials from

your provider carefully.

You are

required to complete a counseling session from an independent, HUD-certified

housing counselor before completing a shared appreciation agreement and may

wish to

speak with a financial

professional or an attorney before proceeding.

Your agreement may affect your taxes, so you may also wish to

speak with a

qualified tax advisor.

Settlement Information

Settlement

A shared appreciation

agreement works differently from a traditional mortgage loan. With a mortgage

loan, you make monthly payments that gradually reduce your loan balance until

it's paid off. With a shared appreciation agreement, there are no monthly

payments, and your total cost is not known up front

ties. See the Net Closing Proceeds

calculation on Page X.

Settlement Information

Settlement

A shared appreciation

agreement works differently from a traditional mortgage loan. With a mortgage

loan, you make monthly payments that gradually reduce your loan balance until

it's paid off. With a shared appreciation agreement, there are no monthly

payments, and your total cost is not known up front. Instead, the total cost

of a shared appreciation agreement depends on your home's future value at the

end of the agreement.

A shared appreciation

agreement typically will end when you sell your home, or at your option, you

choose to end the agreement without a home sale by buying out the agreement

prior to or at the agreement's maximum term.

At settlement, you will make

a lump sum Settlement Payment, either from the proceeds of the sale of your

home or separately if no home sale occurs. The payment amount is based on the

value of your home at the end of the agreement and at the time of settlement.

The cost of a shared appreciation agreement typically grows over time, so at

the end of the agreement you will likely need to make a single payment that

will be much larger than the Transaction Amount and the Net Cash To You at

closing of the agreement. Settlement details are provided in the agreement.

Ending Home Value

The Ending Home Value is the

value of your home at the time your shared appreciation agreement ends. If

your agreement ends in connection with a sale of your home, the Ending Home

Value will typically equal the sale price. If your agreement ends without a

sale of your home, the Ending Home Value will be determined by a professional

third-party valuation method that is consistent with generally accepted

property valuation standards in use at that time, which may include one or

more of the following: appraisal, AVM, BPO, or another method that has been

approved by the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation

sale of your home, the Ending Home Value will be determined by a professional

third-party valuation method that is consistent with generally accepted

property valuation standards in use at that time, which may include one or

more of the following: appraisal, AVM, BPO, or another method that has been

approved by the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation.

Final Settlement Payment

Equals the lesser of the

following two amounts:

1.   Ending Home Value multiplied by the Share

Percentage (this is the uncapped amount).

2.   Cost Cap applied to the Transaction Amount over

the term length (the exact number of days that have elapsed from the

Effective Date to the Settlement Date), compounded annually (this is the

capped amount). If the law sets a more restrictive limit, including the limit

in Section 15-5-5 of the Predatory Loan Prevention Act [815 ILCS 123/15-5-5],

that limit will apply.

If you owe your provider

other amounts for things like unreimbursed protective advances or unpaid

administrative fees, those amounts will be added to the Final Settlement

Payment at termination. You will also pay typical transaction expenses for

things like appraisal, reconveyance, and/or recording fees.

Because the Share

Percentage is greater than the Transaction Percentage, your Final Settlement

Payment can exceed your Transaction Amount even if the Ending Home Value is

less than the Starting Home Value. Your Final Settlement Payment will exceed

the Transaction Amount if the Ending Home Value exceeds $[X,XXX,XXX.XX].

Annualized Cost

The cost of a shared

appreciation agreement expressed as an investment percentage return from

start to end. It is calculated exclusive of the Origination Fee and all

transaction expenses. Although a shared appreciation agreement has no

interest rate, Annualized Cost can provide a useful way to compare the cost

of a shared appreciation agreement to the interest rate on a traditional

mortgage loan

cost of a shared

appreciation agreement expressed as an investment percentage return from

start to end. It is calculated exclusive of the Origination Fee and all

transaction expenses. Although a shared appreciation agreement has no

interest rate, Annualized Cost can provide a useful way to compare the cost

of a shared appreciation agreement to the interest rate on a traditional

mortgage loan. Calculating Annualized Cost also provides the means by which

the Cost Cap is applied.

Cost Is Unknown Up Front

The Ending Home Value and

the date that a shared appreciation agreement ends at settlement are unknown

up front. Therefore, the Final Settlement Payment and the Annualized Cost of

your shared appreciation agreement cannot be determined up front.

Because the total cost of a shared appreciation

agreement cannot be known up front, and because there is no interest rate,

cost cannot be disclosed as a single percentage number, as is customary with

an APR disclosure for a traditional mortgage loan. Instead, a scenario-based

approach is used to disclose cost under various scenarios for future home

value and time to settlement.

Settlement Examples

Settlement Example 1

This example provides full

details of the calculations needed to determine the Final Settlement Payment

and Annualized Cost. There are five simple steps. The example demonstrates a

scenario where the home value increases and the term is longer, resulting in

a share-based Final Settlement Payment

s scenarios for future home

value and time to settlement.

Settlement Examples

Settlement Example 1

This example provides full

details of the calculations needed to determine the Final Settlement Payment

and Annualized Cost. There are five simple steps. The example demonstrates a

scenario where the home value increases and the term is longer, resulting in

a share-based Final Settlement Payment.

Step 1

:    Determine ending assumptions:

Agreement

outstanding for 10 Years

Ending

Home Value: $X,XXX,XXX (approximately 4% annual price appreciation)

Step 2

:    Calculate the share-based settlement payment

Ending

Home Value X Share Percentage = share-based settlement payment

$X,XXX,XXX

X XX.XX% = $XXX,XXX

Step 3

:    Calculate the capped settlement payment*

Transaction Amount X (1 + Cost Cap) ^ (Term Days /

365) = capped settlement payment

$XXX,XXX X (1 + XX.XX%) ^ (3,650 / 365) = $XXX,XXX

Step 4

:     Final

Settlement Payment = lower of the calculations in Step 2 and Step 3, above =

$XXX,XXX

In

this example, the Final Settlement Payment is: □ Share-Based □

Capped

Step 5

:    Calculate Annualized Cost*

(Settlement

Payment / Transaction Amount) ^ (365 / Term Days) - 1 = Annualized Cost

($XXX,XXX / $XXX,XXX) ^ (365 / 3,650) - 1 = XX.X%

*Term

Days = exact number of days that passed between the Effective Date of your

agreement and Settlement Date. This is a 10-year example. Assuming 365 days

per year results in 3,650 Term Days.

Settlement Example 2

This example demonstrates a

scenario where the home value increases and the term is shorter. It results

in a capped outcome.

Step 1

:    Determine ending assumptions:

Agreement

outstanding for 2 Years

Ending

Home Value: $X,XXX,XXX (approximately 4% annual price appreciation)

Step 2

.    Share-based settlement payment = $X,XXX,XXX X

XX.XX% = $XXX,XXX

Step 3

.    Capped settlement payment = $XXX,XXX (see

example 1 for calculation method)

Step 4

.     Final

Settlement Payment = $XXX,XXX Settlement Payment is: □ Share-Based

□ Capped

Step 5

nding assumptions:

Agreement

outstanding for 2 Years

Ending

Home Value: $X,XXX,XXX (approximately 4% annual price appreciation)

Step 2

.    Share-based settlement payment = $X,XXX,XXX X

XX.XX% = $XXX,XXX

Step 3

.    Capped settlement payment = $XXX,XXX (see

example 1 for calculation method)

Step 4

.     Final

Settlement Payment = $XXX,XXX Settlement Payment is: □ Share-Based

□ Capped

Step 5

.    Annualized

Cost = XX.X% (see example 1 for calculation method)

Settlement Example 3

This example demonstrates a

scenario where the home value decreases.

Step 1

:    Determine ending assumptions:

Agreement

outstanding for 2 Years

Ending

Home Value: $X,XXX,XXX (approximately 25% annual price decline)

Step 2

.    Share-based settlement payment = $X,XXX,XXX X

XX.XX% = $XXX,XXX

Step 3

.    Capped settlement payment = $XXX,XXX (see

example 1 for calculation method)

Step 4

.     Final

Settlement Payment = $XXX,XXX Settlement Payment is: □ Share-Based

□ Capped

Step 5

.    Annualized Cost = XX.X% (see example 1 for

calculation method)

IMPORTANT

Because the Share Percentage

is greater than the Transaction Percentage, your Settlement Payment can

exceed your Transaction Amount even if the Ending Home Value is less than the

Starting Home Value.

Your Settlement Payment

will exceed the Transaction Amount if the Ending Home Value exceeds

$X,XXX,XXX.XX.

Settlement Examples

Cost Scenario Tables

The tables below contain

examples of Final Settlement Payment Amounts that may be required to satisfy

your obligation at the end of a shared appreciation agreement based on a

range of Ending Home Values for scenarios where the agreement ends after 1

year, 5 years, 10 years, and at the Expiration Date of the agreement. Ending

Home Values are shown based on hypothetical changes in the change in your

home's value of X.X% (the actual average annual change in value in Illinois

over the prior 5 years based on the All-Transactions House Price Index as

Published by the Federal Reserve Bank of St

ues for scenarios where the agreement ends after 1

year, 5 years, 10 years, and at the Expiration Date of the agreement. Ending

Home Values are shown based on hypothetical changes in the change in your

home's value of X.X% (the actual average annual change in value in Illinois

over the prior 5 years based on the All-Transactions House Price Index as

Published by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, available at: https://fred.stlouisfred.org/series/ILSTHPI),

as well as for 5.5% annual appreciation, 3.5% annual appreciation, no change

in value, and 10% total depreciation.

THESE ARE EXAMPLES ONLY. THE ACTUAL

FINAL SETTLEMENT PAYMENT AMOUNTS COULD BE HIGHER OR LOWER THAN SHOWN HERE.

ACTUAL HOME PRICES COULD RISE MORE THAN SHOWN, WHICH WOULD RESULT IN LARGER

SETTLEMENT PAYMENTS AND HIGHER ANNUALIZED COSTS.

The tables help you see how

cost changes with longer or shorter terms and with varying home price

increases or decreases. Dark shaded cells indicate where the Cost Cap

applies. The Cost Cap usually applies in the early years or when home prices

rise sharply.

Other Important Terms

Provisions Related To

Future Borrowing Against Your Home

Your shared appreciation

agreement may contain provisions that limit your ability to borrow more money

against your home as long as the agreement remains outstanding. This

restriction may apply to "cash out" or "rate/term"

refinance loans, home equity lines of credits or loans, or new loans. You

should review the shared appreciation agreement transaction documents to make

sure you fully understand the impact of these provisions.

It is also possible that a

lender will not lend on a property that is subject to a lien from a shared

appreciation agreement to the same extent or on the same terms as they would

for a property that is not subject to such a lien

ts or loans, or new loans. You

should review the shared appreciation agreement transaction documents to make

sure you fully understand the impact of these provisions.

It is also possible that a

lender will not lend on a property that is subject to a lien from a shared

appreciation agreement to the same extent or on the same terms as they would

for a property that is not subject to such a lien. Therefore, even in a

situation in which a shared appreciation agreement provider does not restrict

a certain future loan, it is possible that you will need to end a shared

appreciation agreement in order to complete another loan.

Appraisal Considerations

Appraisals, AVMs (Automated

Valuation Models) and BPOs (Broker Price Opinions) are professional

third-party estimates of value but may not represent the actual value that

your home would sell for. Unlike a traditional mortgage loan, Starting Home

Value and Ending Home Value are directly used to determine the final cost of

your shared appreciation agreement. As a result, the Final Settlement Payment

Amount that you would owe at the end of the agreement may be affected if a

professional estimate of your home's value differs from actual value.

Information About Default

And Foreclosure

In the case of a material

and uncured breach of the terms of a shared appreciation agreement, the

provider may have the right to take action to protect its investment,

including by initiating a foreclosure proceeding on your home in accordance

with applicable law.

IF YOU DO NOT CURE THE DEFAULT WITHIN THE TIME

PERIODS PROVIDED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW YOU COULD LOSE YOUR HOME.

Events of default include

the following:

Falling

behind on mortgage payments, property taxes, property insurance or other

home-related obligations.

Allowing

the condition of your home to deteriorate significantly or failing to restore

your home to its previous condition after damage occurs.

Taking

on additional debt in violation of the provisions of your shared appreciation

agreement
