RETAINER AGREEMENT
I.    Parties and Purposes: This Agreement for legal services is entered into on the date shown below between The Mortgage
      Law Group, LLP, also known as the law firm of Macey, Aleman & Searns (hereinafter referred to as TMLG), and
                 MARIA ADDISON
      ________________________________ (hereinafter referred to as Client). Client has engaged TMLG to provide foreclosure
      defense services in connection with Client’s real estate and related contract, mortgage(s) or similarly secured documents.
      Such litigation defense will include all services as outlined in Section III Scope below, as well as, where appropriate,
      negotiations for mortgage workout solutions including, but not limited to, loan modification, forbearance, repayment,
      deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, cash for keys, consent foreclosure, sale or short sale, resolution of issues involving junior liens
      or judgments attached to the property, and securing the Client the time required to be properly considered for the
      aforementioned options with respect to the subject property, including an appropriate exit from the property if in the best
      interests of the Client (collectively referred to as Mortgage Relief Services herein). In addition, the Client will receive, at no
      additional cost, law-related services including budget counseling, financial coaching and identity monitoring. This contract
      is solely between TMLG, any assigns, or related entities that may be formed in the future and not any individual, partner,
      member, or employee of TMLG.

II.   Condition of Effectiveness: This Agreement does not take effect, and TMLG has no obligation to provide any services,
      until both the Client and TMLG have executed a copy of this Agreement and delivered such copy to the other party.

III. Scope: TMLG will provide appropriate defense of a foreclosure action commenced by parties holding a secured interest
     in Client’s real estate which is defined and limited as follows:

      a)   Review of all complaints or pleadings in regard to the foreclosure of any mortgage or similar secured interest in regard
           to the Client’s real estate located at (Location of Real Estate). Upon timely receipt of the foreclosure Summons and
           Complaint or related document from Client, TMLG will attempt to resolve the litigation prior to formally responding to
           the lawsuit with a court pleading.

           1.   In order for receipt to be considered “timely,” Client must deliver to TMLG, at its designated office for receipt of
                such matters, a copy of the Summons and Complaint or similar document served upon Client immediately upon
                receipt, but in no event any later than fifteen (15) days prior to a response being due.

      b) Filing a responsive pleading to any complaint, pleading or secured interest document litigation, including attendance
         at required court hearings, if TMLG is unable to reach a satisfactory settlement with the appropriate creditor.

      c)   Any and all required court filing fees and costs to respond to the Complaint served upon Client are the responsibility
           of the Client. (See attached Terms, Conditions and Disclosures for further information regarding court costs).

      d) TMLG and Client agree that TMLG, as a part of its defense of any foreclosure action, will attempt to enter into a
         mortgage workout solution with Client’s mortgage servicer(s). Client agrees that TMLG is retained to perform the
         following services in connection with the matter: evaluation of client financial data in relation to client’s mortgage(s);
         review and evaluation of Client’s current loan terms; Client counseling of mortgage workout options and corresponding
         likelihood of success; communicating and negotiating with the servicer of the note and/or its assignees (including
         but not limited to investors and trustees) to effectuate a workout solution for the Property; review, assessment, and
         explanation of workout details of documents memorializing workout terms.

      e)   Client agrees that TMLG is not retained to perform the following services:

           1.   Tax, financial planning or accounting advice;
           2.   Modification, collection or improvement of Client’s credit reports or scores;
           3.   Any bankruptcy advice, except as specifically provided for below;
           4.   Performance of other debt resolution services such as debt settlement; or
           5.   Elimination of harassment or collection calls from collectors.

      TMLG will discuss specific debt related issues with Client and, if appropriate, offer additional legal services or consultations
      with regard to bankruptcy or other debt resolution services for Client’s consideration.



                                                                                                          Client Initials _________
IV. Term: The term of this Agreement shall commence on the effective date and continue until the negotiated resolution of a
    successful mortgage workout disclosed by Client in Exhibit A of this Agreement or until termination of this Agreement as
    provided in Paragraph XII.

V.   Subcontracting Specific Law-Related Tasks: TMLG may subcontract certain law-related tasks including negotiations with
     mortgage loan servicers and certain customer support responsibilities to third parties with comparable or greater aptitude in
     these law-related services. TMLG and other legally trained, licensed personnel will supervise all negotiations and customer
     support. These law-related services outlined below are all included in the flat fees paid by the client for legal services.

     The implementation, management, maintenance, and supervision of a mortgage workout solution shall be performed under
     the direct supervision of TMLG attorneys by Attorney Processing Solutions (hereinafter referred to as APS). TMLG has a
     non-exclusive reciprocal referral agreement with APS to provide these services directly and through their agents under
     TMLG’s direct supervision. These are services required for mortgage workout solutions but are not legal services. There
     is no attorney-client relationship between Client and APS in regard to these services and any specific communications
     between Client and APS are not protected by attorney-client privilege. APS cannot and will not provide any legal advice
     to the Client other than as communicated through APS by TMLG and under TMLG’s supervision.

     The implementation, management, maintenance, and supervision of budget counseling, financial coaching and identity
     monitoring shall be performed under the direct supervision of TMLG attorneys by Consolidated Legal Services (hereinafter
     referred to as CLC). There is no attorney-client relationship between Client and CLC in regard to these services and any
     specific communications between Client and CLC are not protected by attorney-client privilege. CLC cannot and will not
     provide any legal advice to the Client other than as communicated through CLC by TMLG and under TMLG’s supervision.

VI. Client Obligations: The Client will perform the following obligations:

     a)   As an ongoing obligation and within the time frames set forth by TMLG, Client will provide TMLG with all information
          and documents, as requested by TMLG, with respect to the mortgage(s) subject to foreclosure action;

     b) Where Client seeks mortgage modification in resolution of any pending or anticipated foreclosure action, Client must
        submit all lender required documentation to TMLG within 14 calendar days of signing this Attorney Retainer Agreement.
        Client’s Expected Local Attorney Review Date will follow within 7-10 business days, provided Client’s documentation
        meets lender and investor specifications. TMLG will not submit Client’s request for mortgage modification to Client’s
        mortgage loan lender or servicer without first having received ALL lender required documentation and shall not be
        responsible for any failure on Client’s part to deliver said documentation to TMLG;

     c)   All information provided by Client must be complete, truthful, and accurate;

     d) Client will respond to all other requests for communication or documentation from TMLG or its representatives within
        72 hours and will promptly provide TMLG with any change of address or other contact information;

     e)   Client will forward all correspondence from lenders, servicers, government entities, courts and public trustees,
          including collection letters, demands, complaints, Notices of Default or Acceleration, and Notices of Sale. TMLG is
          under no obligation to verify information supplied by Client;

     f)   If a servicer contacts Client, Client will not engage in negotiation or workout discussions. Rather, Client will inform
          servicer that Client is represented by TMLG, provide the servicer with TMLG’s contact information, and advise servicer
          that all future communications shall be directed through TMLG. If a servicer engages in harassing or abusive conduct,
          the Client will promptly notify TMLG and provide complete and accurate information regarding such contacts;

     g) Subsequent to the execution of this Agreement, Client shall pay a flat fee in accordance with the total mortgage
        balance(s) as set forth in the attached payment schedule (Payment Schedule), hereby included in Exhibit B of this
        Agreement and incorporated by this reference; and

     h)   Client agrees to timely and fully pay all debt modification negotiated by TMLG and approved by Client.




                                                                                                    Client Initials _________
VII. Law Firm’s Obligations: In consideration for Client’s obligations as stated in Section VI, TMLG agrees to use its best
     efforts to defend the foreclosure action and, where appropriate, obtain a successful mortgage workout solution for Client
     by providing basic legal services on an efficient and cost-effective basis.

    CLIENT EXPRESSLY AGREES THAT TMLG MAKES NO SPECIFIC GUARANTEE REGARDING THE OUTCOME OF
    ANY FORECLOSURE ACTION, MORTGAGE MODIFICATION OR OTHER NEGOTIATTION FOR A MORTGAGE
    WORKOUT SOLUTION CONSISTENT WITH THE OBJECTIVES OF THE CLIENT.

    In the event that Client’s objective is obtaining a mortgage loan modification, a trial period may be required before the
    lender offers a permanent workout solution. In the event a trial period is achieved by TMLG and accepted by Client, such
    trial period will be deemed a successful mortgage workout.

    TMLG offers its advice based on the information as disclosed by Client and Client agrees that TMLG is not responsible
    and assumes no liability for changes in the law, changes in Client’s financial situation, and/or facts revealed after TMLG’s
    review of Client’s documentation that could affect in any way the advice TMLG provides Client.

    TMLG and its staff will timely respond to all Client inquiries and keep the Client informed as to developments in negotiations
    and all offers of mortgage workouts. TMLG’s obligation to negotiate shall only apply to the Property and corresponding
    mortgage(s) as disclosed by the Client. The details of such obligation are included in Schedule A of this Agreement.

VIII. Fees and Costs: In consideration for all services to be rendered, Client agrees upon execution of this Agreement to pay
      TMLG a Flat Fee retainer, which includes a monthly recurring component, as set forth in the Payment Schedule attached
      as Exhibit B to this Agreement. Client acknowledges that this Agreement is based on a Flat Fee earned, not billed by the
      hour. However, for accounting of earned and unearned fees only, fees are calculated in six minute intervals, with six
      minutes being the minimum time billed for any one project as provided for in the attached Payment Schedule.

    Client also agrees that if the Client’s initial payment fails for any reason, TMLG is under no obligation to provide any legal
    or law-related services under this Agreement until such time the client successfully recompenses TMLG.

IX. Electronic Payment Authorizations: By signing this Agreement, and completing the attached Electronic Funds Transfer
    authorization, Client authorizes TMLG and its designated third-party payment processor to deduct all legal fees and costs
    via electronic payment authorizations from Client’s authorized checking, savings or other account. Client shall pay TMLG a
    one-time administrative fee of one hundred and twenty-five dollars ($125) for all electronic, ACH, wire transfer and related
    administrative services.

    TMLG requires a minimum of five (5) business days to change any scheduled Electronic Funds Transfer (“EFT”) from
    Client’s authorized bank account. It is also understood that Client shall not make or request more than one payment
    date alteration during the contract. Client will be charged an additional service fee of forty dollars ($40) for any
    payment date alteration. Any payment returned as non-sufficient funds “NSF” will be charged a thirty-five dollar
    ($35) returned check fee that will be due with the payment replacing the NSF payment.

X. Client Acknowledgement: Client acknowledges and agrees that:

    a)   TMLG is authorized to work on Client’s behalf in defense of the disclosed foreclosure action against Client’s property
         and to secure a mortgage workout solution where applicable;

    b) TMLG shall provide such Mortgage Relief Services on a best efforts basis;

    c) The outcome of any foreclosure action and TMLG’s negotiation of any mortgage workout solution is uncertain.
       Each case is unique and results may vary;

    d) Client’s mortgage workout solution may be limited to a Forbearance Plan, Repayment Plan, Short Sale,
       Deed-in-Lieu or Cash for Keys program. TMLG will consult with Client as to the most effective strategy based
       on the Client’s circumstances and all variables that cannot be predicted in advance;

    e)   TMLG’s mortgage workout negotiations may not prevent servicer’s harassment, nor prevent phone calls from
         servicer’s various departments to Client;

    f)   Collection activity by the servicer will continue during the mortgage workout negotiations up to and including receiving
         Notices of Default and Notices of Sale;
                                                                                                      Client Initials _________
g) Client may be sued by the servicer and foreclosure actions may proceed. While TMLG will negotiate with the
       servicer to stop or postpone the sale date while the mortgage workout is under review, TMLG cannot guarantee
       that such postponement will occur;

    h)   The discharge of indebtedness may be considered a taxable event and Client should consult a tax professional for any
         such advice or services; and

    i)   TMLG will not agree to provide the services under this Agreement absent Client’s full understanding and acceptance
         of the basis for the work to be performed.

XI. Impact on Credit Rating: Client acknowledges that nonpayment, late payments, and mortgage workout options may
    result in derogatory credit information transmitted to the major credit reporting agencies. TMLG takes no responsibility
    or such derogatory credit reporting. TMLG does not provide debt consolidation services, nor credit repair services, and
    Client acknowledges herein that it received proper notice regarding possible consequences to the Client’s credit rating.

XII. Termination and Severability: Client agrees that both parties may sever the relationship at any time. The party choosing
     to terminate the Agreement will document the decision by sending written notice to the other party. The termination will
     occur upon receipt of such notice.

    If such termination occurs and within 30 days of the date of said termination, the Client will be provided with an accounting
    of fees earned. Client shall only be responsible for fees incurred through the date of cancellation and in accordance with the
    Payment Schedule listed in Exhibit B. TMLG may cancel this Agreement if the Client fails to make payments as previously
    agreed upon or for any violation of the Client Obligations listed in section VI. If any legal action is brought regarding this
    Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to legal fees and court costs.

XIII. Authorizations: The Client authorizes TMLG as follows:

    a)   Client authorizes TMLG to disclose information regarding Client’s financial condition or status to servicers holding
         Client’s mortgage(s) in regard to any income and expenses and/or any debt settlement programs or bankruptcies that
         the Client may be or have been involved in. Further, TMLG may obtain information concerning Client from such creditors;

    b) Client authorizes TMLG to disclose to servicers, investors, and any assignees that TMLG and its representatives, or
       subcontractors, are authorized to negotiate mortgage workout options on behalf of the Client; and

    c)   Client authorizes TMLG to negotiate mortgage workout solutions as a part of the overall defense of a foreclosure action.

XIV. Confidentiality: TMLG agrees that any information provided by Client will be kept confidential and used only in the defense
     of a foreclosure action and the provision of other Mortgage Relief Services described in this Agreement.

XV. Disclosures and Disclaimers: Client acknowledges and understands that:

    a)   TMLG is not a government agency or associated with the government; TMLG’s services have not been approved by
         the government or Client’s lender;

    b) Client’s lender may not agree to change the terms of Client’s loan;

    c)   Client’s failure to make scheduled mortgage payments could cause Client to lose their home and damage Client’s
         credit rating;

    d) TMLG cannot and does not make any guarantee of any kind regarding the outcome of any foreclosure case or the
       success of any negotiation for a mortgage workout;

    e)   Client may accept or decline any mortgage workout solution achieved by TMLG;

    f)   It is not necessary to pay a third party to arrange for a loan modification or other form of forbearance from your mortgage
         lender or servicer. You may call your lender directly to ask for a change in your loan terms. Nonprofit housing counseling
         agencies also offer these and other forms of borrower assistance free of charge. A list of nonprofit housing counseling
         agencies approved by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is available from
         your local HUD office or by visiting www.hud.gov.

                                                                                                      Client Initials _________
In addition to mortgage modification, mortgage workouts may include short sale, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, cash for keys,
      and bankruptcy. Mortgage modification may decrease a mortgage’s interest rate, extend the terms of the mortgage, and
      possibly forbear some of the principle owing on the mortgage. A mortgage modification will most likely impact a Client’s
      credit rating less than a short sale and deed-in-lieu may impact Client’s credit rating. A short sale and deed-in-lieu may
      impact less on the Client’s credit rating than a foreclosure and bankruptcy. Bankruptcy may discharge the majority of
      Client’s debts; however, Client has requested TMLG to pursue other alternatives at this time to avoid bankruptcy.
      TMLG will discuss and advise Client as to the bankruptcy option, including fees and costs, at any time that Client’s
      circumstances change or Client requests such consultation.

      There are no additional fees or costs required from Client for such consultation and advice regarding bankruptcy.
      (See Exhibit A of this Agreement for further information about these alternate remedies).

XVI. Arbitration and Waiver of Class Action Arbitration: Client and TMLG agree that in the event of any claim or dispute
     between Client and TMLG related to this Agreement or the performance of any services hereunder, the parties expressly
     agree such claim or dispute shall be submitted to binding arbitration upon the request of either party upon the service of
     that request.

      The parties expressly acknowledge and agree that the relationship created by this Agreement and the services rendered
      pursuant to it are unique to Client’s individual circumstances. As such, the arbitration shall proceed solely on an individual
      basis without the right for any claims to be arbitrated on a class action basis or on bases involving claims brought in a
      purported representative capacity on behalf of others. The arbitrator’s authority to resolve and make written awards is
      limited to claims between Client and TMLG alone. Claims may not be joined or consolidated unless agreed to in writing
      by all parties. No arbitration award or decision will have any preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute with
      anyone who is not a named party to the arbitration.

      The parties shall initially agree on a single arbitrator to resolve the dispute. The matter may be arbitrated either by the
      Judicial Arbitration Mediation Service or American Arbitration Association, as mutually agreed upon by the parties or
      selected by the party filing the claim. The arbitration shall be conducted in either the county in which Client resides, or
      the closest metropolitan county. Any decision of the arbitrator shall be final and may be entered into any judgment in any

EXHIBIT A
                                           Disclosure and Election of Services

TMLG is a full service mortgage relief law firm that provides debt negotiation and restructuring, bankruptcy services and,
where appropriate, referral to consumer credit counseling agencies and/or government programs such as HUD. The following
provides information as to all these approaches to mortgage relief services for your review. Clients should fully understand the
advantages and disadvantages of each to make an informed decision.

Mortgage Workouts often offer distressed homeowners alternatives to foreclosure. Workouts may consist of one or more of
the following solutions: loan modification, forbearance, repayment plans, short sale, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or cash for keys.
Some loan modification programs are offered by the government while other programs are offered by servicers. Modifications
may be temporary or permanent and may consist of temporarily or permanently lowering the interest rate on a mortgage,
changing an adjustable rate mortgage to a fixed rate mortgage, extending the amortization term of a loan, and/or forbearing a
portion of the unpaid principle balance until the end of the loan. A servicer may also allow a homeowner to make interest only
payments until their financial hardship has passed. A forbearance occurs when a homeowner is allowed to make decreased
payments for a pre-determined period of time while a repayment plan merely capitalizes the arrears and allows the homeowner
to pay the arrears over time to become current. Short sales occur when a servicer allows a homeowner to sell their home for
less than the unpaid principle balance because the home’s fair market value is less than the amount the homeowner owes.
A deed-in-lieu consists of a homeowner merely handing the keys to their home to the servicer rather than going through a
foreclosure. It is possible for a homeowner to obtain “cash for keys” when doing a deed-in-lieu. “Cash for keys” is a program
which pays the homeowner cash to help offset the cost of moving from the home.

Credit Counseling offers services that will allow you to work with a certified credit counselor to devise a plan that is tailored to
your specific needs and goals. Credit counseling agencies often provide services for free and will help to educate you about
how to avoid financial problems in the future by offering debt management classes or seminars. They do not erase your debt.
Instead they work with you to budget money so that you can pay off the debt often times by debt consolidation. Collections by
your creditors may continue while using a credit counselor and most plans require you to pay your entire debt balance over the
life of the plan. Consumer credit counseling agencies are required to advise you that they are compensated by the creditors
based on the amount of debt they are able to have you pay.

Bankruptcy will usually discharge your unsecure debt and your creditors are not permitted to contact you once you have filed
with the court. There are two kinds of bankruptcy; Chapter 13 bankruptcy where you are generally able to keep property that is
mortgaged such as your house or car and are expected to repay debts in three to five years and Chapter 7 bankruptcy where
you must give up all non-exempt property and assets that you own in exchange for a discharge of most debt. Bankruptcy may
be appropriate if you have pending foreclosures, collection litigation or wage garnishments, however, you will generally be
unable to establish credit for up to ten years.

In 2005, the bankruptcy law was changed to make it more difficult for some consumers to file Chapter 7 bankruptcy based on
a financial means test and credit counseling requirements that may require a repayment of some of your debt.

Debt Negotiation is a process where the law firm, based on your specific circumstances, develops a plan to manage your debt
resolution with your creditors. In general terms, it is a process of negotiating with your creditors for a lower balance/forgiveness
of debt, a reduced interest rate, a reduced monthly payment or other restructuring alternatives. To be successful in debt
negotiation, you need to have sufficient cash flow to meet your living expenses each month and provide some funds towards
resolution of your debt.

TMLG will contact all your mortgage lenders in writing that you are represented by the law firm and that we are advising you
as to all alternatives for debt resolution. As you have indicated in your compliance review, you prefer TMLG to attempt debt
negotiation as an alternative to bankruptcy. However, if your financial circumstances change, we will advise you as to other
debt resolution alternatives outlined above, so you can make an informed decision based on our advice.

If you have any questions regarding the above options, please contact us for further explanation. If you are ready to proceed,
sign below your acknowledgement that you have reviewed all possible debt resolution options and have determined that debt
negotiation by TMLG is your preference, subject to your ability to request a different alternative if your circumstances change
in the future. Please review Section XV of this Agreement prior to executing your informed consent below.

Payments are not subject to a late fee. There is no early payment penalty. My/our attorney encourages me/us to pay the fees as quickly

underlying attorney contract is not assignable or transferable. There are no filing or recording fees associated with this transaction.

Authorization for Services. I hereby authorize NoteWorld to receive payments from me, hold my money, disburse payments, and provide me
with account and transaction information (collectively, “Services”) as these Services relate to my agreement with ______________________
                                                                                                                    The Mortgage Law Group
_____________________(”Payment Recipient”). I understand and specifically acknowledge that NoteWorld is providing these Services to me
as an independent third-party and is not an employee, partner, joint venturer or agent of Payment Recipient.
NoteWorld Fees. I acknowledge that NoteWorld charges fees for its Services that are separate from the fees I may have agreed to pay Payment
Recipient. I agree to pay fees to NoteWorld in accordance with the fee schedule set forth below. I understand that NoteWorld may change
these fees at any time either with or without advance notice to me.

Payments. I understand that NoteWorld accepts electronic payments (ACH, Pay-By-Web, Pay-By-Phone) and non-electronic payments (money
orders, personal checks) and that I will be charged a processing fee based on the payment method I choose. If I change my method of making
payments to NoteWorld, I understand that my payment processing fee will be adjusted accordingly. I understand that NoteWorld does not accept
post-dated checks. If I remit a post-dated check and it is processed, I understand that NoteWorld takes no responsibility for any fees that I may incur
related thereto.
Disbursements. I authorize NoteWorld to disburse money on my behalf according to the terms of my agreement with Payment Recipient. I also
authorize NoteWorld to disburse fees to Payment Recipient.
Trust Account. I understand and agree that my payments will be deposited to, held in, and disbursed from a NoteWorld Client Trust Account. I
acknowledge and agree that the NoteWorld Client Trust Account is non-interest bearing, which means no interest will accrue on the funds being held
on my behalf and I will not be entitled to any interest on those funds. I understand that my funds being held by NoteWorld belong to me and that
they are separately insured by the FDIC up to the maximum amount.
Account Information. I understand and agree that Payment Recipient will be given access to view my NoteWorld account information and that
NoteWorld may communicate with Payment Recipient about my NoteWorld account information.
Cancellation. I understand that, if I want to cancel this Sign-Up Agreement and close my NoteWorld account, I can contact NoteWorld via: PHONE:
1-800-535-9192; E-MAIL: pas@noteworld.com; MAIL: NoteWorld, PO Box 2236, Tacoma WA 98401; or FAX: 1-877-830-3177. I understand that all
cancellations will be completed within five (5) days of such request and that NoteWorld will not charge me a fee for cancellation.
Refunds. If I cancel my NoteWorld account or otherwise make a request for a refund, NoteWorld will return to me all funds in NoteWorld’s
possession, if any, as of the date my notice is received by NoteWorld. I acknowledge and agree that my refund will not include amounts already
disbursed under the terms of my agreement with Payment Recipient, fees already disbursed to Payment Recipient and fees already received by
NoteWorld. I understand that refunds will be processed within five (5) days of any request and that NoteWorld will not charge me a fee for the
refund. I agree that NoteWorld shall remit any refunds due to me via ACH credit to my designated bank account of record unless otherwise
instructed by me in writing.
Indemnity and Release. I agree to indemnify and hold NoteWorld, its officers, managers, members and employees harmless from any and all claims,
damages, demands, liabilities, suits, losses, other legal actions and proceedings, and expenses of any kind or nature, including, but not limited to,
reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees, arising out of or in any way related to the provision of Services to me, unless such claims, damages, demands,
liabilities, suits, losses, other legal actions and proceedings, and expenses arise out of NoteWorld’s failure to exercise ordinary care in providing
Services to me. I agree to pay NoteWorld upon demand for said items. I further agree to release NoteWorld and its officers, members, managers,
agents and employees from any and all claims, damages, demands, lawsuits, liabilities, losses and any other legal actions or proceedings arising out
of a dispute between me and Payment Recipient.
I HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE ABOVE INFORMATION.

I authorize NoteWorld to initiate recurring Automated Clearing House (ACH) debits from, and credits to, my designated bank account
identified above and I authorize the depository financial institution named above to process said entries. I understand that debits will
be withdrawn on the payment dates noted above unless otherwise instructed by me, and that sufficient funds must be available in my
designated bank account at least two (2) business days prior to the payment due date. If the payment date falls on a weekend or
holiday, funds will be withdrawn the following business day. I may make changes to my payment amount or payment date by
contacting NoteWorld at least five (5) days prior to the desired change. If the recurring payment amount and/or date noted above vary
from what has been pre-authorized, NoteWorld will give me ten (10) days’ notice of the new payment amount and/or date. This
authorization is to remain in force until the schedule of debits is completed or until NoteWorld has received notification of a change or
cancellation allowing no fewer than five (5) days for NoteWorld to act. NoteWorld is not liable to me or any other person for not
completing a transaction as a result of any limit on my designated bank account, if my financial institution fails to honor any debit from
my designated account or for my failure to provide my Social Security Number and Date of Birth when required. I authorize NoteWorld
to recover funds via an ACH debit from my bank account in the event of an error or in the event that a debit is returned for any reason,
including non-sufficient funds. I acknowledge that the origination of ACH transactions through NoteWorld to my bank account must
comply with the provisions of U.S. law.


I acknowledge that the information above is true and correct and that recurring ACH debits are authorized by me.

Collection activity on your account will likely continue while you are in the foreclosure Thomas Humphrey (ID) process even if you are working with your lender on a resolution. Our goal is to slow down the Colin Banyon (IL) foreclosure process and make the banks prove up their case to allow you the maximum amount of Jeffrey Aleman (IL) time to achieve your goals with respect to the property (i.e., entering into a loan modification, working Thomas Macey (IL) Kelly Sibert (IL) out a short sale, repayment plan, forbearance plan, deed–in-lieu of foreclosure, consent judgment, etc.) Eric Jackson (IN) To make this process successful, you must read the following pages carefully.

Daniel Reiff (MN) You must also keep us informed of ANY changes in your circumstances and send us all Stephen Coffin (MO) John Windsor (MS) documents you receive from your mortgage lender, loan servicer, or the court. Mark Anderson (MT) 2) RETURN ALL CALLS AND EMAIL IMMEDIATELY. You MUST check your email and voicemail Harry Marsh (NC) at least two time per day and return any communication from us immediately and in no Keith Trader (ND) circumstance more than 48 hours from when we attempt to contact you. Thomas Sundvold (NE) Jeremey Miller (NH) 3) SUBMIT ALL DOCUMENTS WITHIN 48 HOURS OF OUR REQUEST. You must submit all David Knapp (NJ) requested documents to us within 48 hours of our request and all documents must be complete Denise Snyder (NM) and accurate. Michael Terry (NV) Dan Ruggiero (NY) We want your resolution and/or modification to be successful and completed as quickly as possible. Robert Raper (OH) To do this, we need your help. Please remember that if you fail to meet any of the above requirements, Ron Brown (OK) you are in breach of your responsibilities and you are sole responsible for any negative actions your Alex Golubitsky (OR) mortgage lender or loan servicer may take due to your failure to comply with these requirements. Ronald Rojas (PA) Alberto De Diego (PR) If you have any questions, please contact us immediately so that we may continue working together Burton Kliman (RI) to solve your mortgage problem. We look forward to helping you on your way to financial stability.

In addition, the Client will receive, at no additional cost, law-related services including budget counseling, financial coaching and identity monitoring.

III. Scope: TMLG will provide appropriate defense of a foreclosure action commenced by parties holding a secured interest in Client’s real estate which is defined and limited as follows: a) Review of all complaints or pleadings in regard to the foreclosure of any mortgage or similar secured interest in regard to the Client’s real estate located at (Location of Real Estate).

Client Initials _________
  • 3. IV. Term: The term of this Agreement shall commence on the effective date and continue until the negotiated resolution of a successful mortgage workout disclosed by Client in Exhibit A of this Agreement or until termination of this Agreement as provided in Paragraph XII. V. Subcontracting Specific Law-Related Tasks: TMLG may subcontract certain law-related tasks including negotiations with mortgage loan servicers and certain customer support responsibilities to third parties with comparable or greater aptitude in these law-related services. TMLG and other legally trained, licensed personnel will supervise all negotiations and customer support. These law-related services outlined below are all included in the flat fees paid by the client for legal services. The implementation, management, maintenance, and supervision of a mortgage workout solution shall be performed under the direct supervision of TMLG attorneys by Attorney Processing Solutions (hereinafter referred to as APS). TMLG has a non-exclusive reciprocal referral agreement with APS to provide these services directly and through their agents under TMLG’s direct supervision. These are services required for mortgage workout solutions but are not legal services. There is no attorney-client relationship between Client and APS in regard to these services and any specific communications between Client and APS are not protected by attorney-client privilege. APS cannot and will not provide any legal advice to the Client other than as communicated through APS by TMLG and under TMLG’s supervision. The implementation, management, maintenance, and supervision of budget counseling, financial coaching and identity monitoring shall be performed under the direct supervision of TMLG attorneys by Consolidated Legal Services (hereinafter referred to as CLC). There is no attorney-client relationship between Client and CLC in regard to these services and any specific communications between Client and CLC are not protected by attorney-client privilege. CLC cannot and will not provide any legal advice to the Client other than as communicated through CLC by TMLG and under TMLG’s supervision. VI. Client Obligations: The Client will perform the following obligations: a) As an ongoing obligation and within the time frames set forth by TMLG, Client will provide TMLG with all information and documents, as requested by TMLG, with respect to the mortgage(s) subject to foreclosure action; b) Where Client seeks mortgage modification in resolution of any pending or anticipated foreclosure action, Client must submit all lender required documentation to TMLG within 14 calendar days of signing this Attorney Retainer Agreement. Client’s Expected Local Attorney Review Date will follow within 7-10 business days, provided Client’s documentation meets lender and investor specifications. TMLG will not submit Client’s request for mortgage modification to Client’s mortgage loan lender or servicer without first having received ALL lender required documentation and shall not be responsible for any failure on Client’s part to deliver said documentation to TMLG; c) All information provided by Client must be complete, truthful, and accurate; d) Client will respond to all other requests for communication or documentation from TMLG or its representatives within 72 hours and will promptly provide TMLG with any change of address or other contact information; e) Client will forward all correspondence from lenders, servicers, government entities, courts and public trustees, including collection letters, demands, complaints, Notices of Default or Acceleration, and Notices of Sale. TMLG is under no obligation to verify information supplied by Client; f) If a servicer contacts Client, Client will not engage in negotiation or workout discussions. Rather, Client will inform servicer that Client is represented by TMLG, provide the servicer with TMLG’s contact information, and advise servicer that all future communications shall be directed through TMLG. If a servicer engages in harassing or abusive conduct, the Client will promptly notify TMLG and provide complete and accurate information regarding such contacts; g) Subsequent to the execution of this Agreement, Client shall pay a flat fee in accordance with the total mortgage balance(s) as set forth in the attached payment schedule (Payment Schedule), hereby included in Exhibit B of this Agreement and incorporated by this reference; and h) Client agrees to timely and fully pay all debt modification negotiated by TMLG and approved by Client. Client Initials _________
  • 4. VII. Law Firm’s Obligations: In consideration for Client’s obligations as stated in Section VI, TMLG agrees to use its best efforts to defend the foreclosure action and, where appropriate, obtain a successful mortgage workout solution for Client by providing basic legal services on an efficient and cost-effective basis. CLIENT EXPRESSLY AGREES THAT TMLG MAKES NO SPECIFIC GUARANTEE REGARDING THE OUTCOME OF ANY FORECLOSURE ACTION, MORTGAGE MODIFICATION OR OTHER NEGOTIATTION FOR A MORTGAGE WORKOUT SOLUTION CONSISTENT WITH THE OBJECTIVES OF THE CLIENT. In the event that Client’s objective is obtaining a mortgage loan modification, a trial period may be required before the lender offers a permanent workout solution. In the event a trial period is achieved by TMLG and accepted by Client, such trial period will be deemed a successful mortgage workout. TMLG offers its advice based on the information as disclosed by Client and Client agrees that TMLG is not responsible and assumes no liability for changes in the law, changes in Client’s financial situation, and/or facts revealed after TMLG’s review of Client’s documentation that could affect in any way the advice TMLG provides Client. TMLG and its staff will timely respond to all Client inquiries and keep the Client informed as to developments in negotiations and all offers of mortgage workouts. TMLG’s obligation to negotiate shall only apply to the Property and corresponding mortgage(s) as disclosed by the Client. The details of such obligation are included in Schedule A of this Agreement. VIII. Fees and Costs: In consideration for all services to be rendered, Client agrees upon execution of this Agreement to pay TMLG a Flat Fee retainer, which includes a monthly recurring component, as set forth in the Payment Schedule attached as Exhibit B to this Agreement. Client acknowledges that this Agreement is based on a Flat Fee earned, not billed by the hour. However, for accounting of earned and unearned fees only, fees are calculated in six minute intervals, with six minutes being the minimum time billed for any one project as provided for in the attached Payment Schedule. Client also agrees that if the Client’s initial payment fails for any reason, TMLG is under no obligation to provide any legal or law-related services under this Agreement until such time the client successfully recompenses TMLG. IX. Electronic Payment Authorizations: By signing this Agreement, and completing the attached Electronic Funds Transfer authorization, Client authorizes TMLG and its designated third-party payment processor to deduct all legal fees and costs via electronic payment authorizations from Client’s authorized checking, savings or other account. Client shall pay TMLG a one-time administrative fee of one hundred and twenty-five dollars ($125) for all electronic, ACH, wire transfer and related administrative services. TMLG requires a minimum of five (5) business days to change any scheduled Electronic Funds Transfer (“EFT”) from Client’s authorized bank account. It is also understood that Client shall not make or request more than one payment date alteration during the contract. Client will be charged an additional service fee of forty dollars ($40) for any payment date alteration. Any payment returned as non-sufficient funds “NSF” will be charged a thirty-five dollar ($35) returned check fee that will be due with the payment replacing the NSF payment. X. Client Acknowledgement: Client acknowledges and agrees that: a) TMLG is authorized to work on Client’s behalf in defense of the disclosed foreclosure action against Client’s property and to secure a mortgage workout solution where applicable; b) TMLG shall provide such Mortgage Relief Services on a best efforts basis; c) The outcome of any foreclosure action and TMLG’s negotiation of any mortgage workout solution is uncertain. Each case is unique and results may vary; d) Client’s mortgage workout solution may be limited to a Forbearance Plan, Repayment Plan, Short Sale, Deed-in-Lieu or Cash for Keys program. TMLG will consult with Client as to the most effective strategy based on the Client’s circumstances and all variables that cannot be predicted in advance; e) TMLG’s mortgage workout negotiations may not prevent servicer’s harassment, nor prevent phone calls from servicer’s various departments to Client; f) Collection activity by the servicer will continue during the mortgage workout negotiations up to and including receiving Notices of Default and Notices of Sale; Client Initials _________
  • 5. g) Client may be sued by the servicer and foreclosure actions may proceed. While TMLG will negotiate with the servicer to stop or postpone the sale date while the mortgage workout is under review, TMLG cannot guarantee that such postponement will occur; h) The discharge of indebtedness may be considered a taxable event and Client should consult a tax professional for any such advice or services; and i) TMLG will not agree to provide the services under this Agreement absent Client’s full understanding and acceptance of the basis for the work to be performed. XI. Impact on Credit Rating: Client acknowledges that nonpayment, late payments, and mortgage workout options may result in derogatory credit information transmitted to the major credit reporting agencies. TMLG takes no responsibility or such derogatory credit reporting. TMLG does not provide debt consolidation services, nor credit repair services, and Client acknowledges herein that it received proper notice regarding possible consequences to the Client’s credit rating. XII. Termination and Severability: Client agrees that both parties may sever the relationship at any time. The party choosing to terminate the Agreement will document the decision by sending written notice to the other party. The termination will occur upon receipt of such notice. If such termination occurs and within 30 days of the date of said termination, the Client will be provided with an accounting of fees earned.

  • 6. In addition to mortgage modification, mortgage workouts may include short sale, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, cash for keys, and bankruptcy. Mortgage modification may decrease a mortgage’s interest rate, extend the terms of the mortgage, and possibly forbear some of the principle owing on the mortgage. A mortgage modification will most likely impact a Client’s credit rating less than a short sale and deed-in-lieu may impact Client’s credit rating. A short sale and deed-in-lieu may impact less on the Client’s credit rating than a foreclosure and bankruptcy. Bankruptcy may discharge the majority of Client’s debts; however, Client has requested TMLG to pursue other alternatives at this time to avoid bankruptcy. TMLG will discuss and advise Client as to the bankruptcy option, including fees and costs, at any time that Client’s circumstances change or Client requests such consultation. There are no additional fees or costs required from Client for such consultation and advice regarding bankruptcy. (See Exhibit A of this Agreement for further information about these alternate remedies). XVI. Arbitration and Waiver of Class Action Arbitration: Client and TMLG agree that in the event of any claim or dispute between Client and TMLG related to this Agreement or the performance of any services hereunder, the parties expressly agree such claim or dispute shall be submitted to binding arbitration upon the request of either party upon the service of that request. The parties expressly acknowledge and agree that the relationship created by this Agreement and the services rendered pursuant to it are unique to Client’s individual circumstances. As such, the arbitration shall proceed solely on an individual basis without the right for any claims to be arbitrated on a class action basis or on bases involving claims brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of others. The arbitrator’s authority to resolve and make written awards is limited to claims between Client and TMLG alone. Claims may not be joined or consolidated unless agreed to in writing by all parties. No arbitration award or decision will have any preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute with anyone who is not a named party to the arbitration. The parties shall initially agree on a single arbitrator to resolve the dispute. The matter may be arbitrated either by the Judicial Arbitration Mediation Service or American Arbitration Association, as mutually agreed upon by the parties or selected by the party filing the claim. The arbitration shall be conducted in either the county in which Client resides, or the closest metropolitan county. Any decision of the arbitrator shall be final and may be entered into any judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. The conduct of the arbitration shall be subject to the then current rules of the arbitration service. The costs of arbitration, excluding legal fees, will be split equally or be borne by the losing party, as determined by the arbitrator. The parties shall bear their own legal fees. XVII. Integration: This Agreement and all schedules are the complete and exclusive statement of the Agreement of the parties and supersede any proposal, prior agreement, oral or written, and any other communication related to this matter. XVIII. Enforceability: In the event that any portion of this Agreement is determined to be illegal or unenforceable, the determination will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement, all of which shall remain in full force and effect. The parties agree to insert another provision that will be valid to come in closest to the original intent of the Agreement. XIX. Amendment: This Agreement may be modified by a subsequent agreement by the parties only by an instrument in writing, signed by both TMLG and Client and no waiver of any provision or condition of this Agreement shall be effective or binding unless such waiver be in writing and signed by the party claiming to have given such waiver.

  • 7. EXHIBIT A Disclosure and Election of Services TMLG is a full service mortgage relief law firm that provides debt negotiation and restructuring, bankruptcy services and, where appropriate, referral to consumer credit counseling agencies and/or government programs such as HUD. The following provides information as to all these approaches to mortgage relief services for your review. Clients should fully understand the advantages and disadvantages of each to make an informed decision. Mortgage Workouts often offer distressed homeowners alternatives to foreclosure. Workouts may consist of one or more of the following solutions: loan modification, forbearance, repayment plans, short sale, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or cash for keys. Some loan modification programs are offered by the government while other programs are offered by servicers. Modifications may be temporary or permanent and may consist of temporarily or permanently lowering the interest rate on a mortgage, changing an adjustable rate mortgage to a fixed rate mortgage, extending the amortization term of a loan, and/or forbearing a portion of the unpaid principle balance until the end of the loan. A servicer may also allow a homeowner to make interest only payments until their financial hardship has passed. A forbearance occurs when a homeowner is allowed to make decreased payments for a pre-determined period of time while a repayment plan merely capitalizes the arrears and allows the homeowner to pay the arrears over time to become current. Short sales occur when a servicer allows a homeowner to sell their home for less than the unpaid principle balance because the home’s fair market value is less than the amount the homeowner owes. A deed-in-lieu consists of a homeowner merely handing the keys to their home to the servicer rather than going through a foreclosure. It is possible for a homeowner to obtain “cash for keys” when doing a deed-in-lieu. “Cash for keys” is a program which pays the homeowner cash to help offset the cost of moving from the home. Credit Counseling offers services that will allow you to work with a certified credit counselor to devise a plan that is tailored to your specific needs and goals. Credit counseling agencies often provide services for free and will help to educate you about how to avoid financial problems in the future by offering debt management classes or seminars. They do not erase your debt. Instead they work with you to budget money so that you can pay off the debt often times by debt consolidation. Collections by your creditors may continue while using a credit counselor and most plans require you to pay your entire debt balance over the life of the plan. Consumer credit counseling agencies are required to advise you that they are compensated by the creditors based on the amount of debt they are able to have you pay. Bankruptcy will usually discharge your unsecure debt and your creditors are not permitted to contact you once you have filed with the court. There are two kinds of bankruptcy; Chapter 13 bankruptcy where you are generally able to keep property that is mortgaged such as your house or car and are expected to repay debts in three to five years and Chapter 7 bankruptcy where you must give up all non-exempt property and assets that you own in exchange for a discharge of most debt. Bankruptcy may be appropriate if you have pending foreclosures, collection litigation or wage garnishments, however, you will generally be unable to establish credit for up to ten years. In 2005, the bankruptcy law was changed to make it more difficult for some consumers to file Chapter 7 bankruptcy based on a financial means test and credit counseling requirements that may require a repayment of some of your debt. Debt Negotiation is a process where the law firm, based on your specific circumstances, develops a plan to manage your debt resolution with your creditors. In general terms, it is a process of negotiating with your creditors for a lower balance/forgiveness of debt, a reduced interest rate, a reduced monthly payment or other restructuring alternatives. To be successful in debt negotiation, you need to have sufficient cash flow to meet your living expenses each month and provide some funds towards resolution of your debt. TMLG will contact all your mortgage lenders in writing that you are represented by the law firm and that we are advising you as to all alternatives for debt resolution. As you have indicated in your compliance review, you prefer TMLG to attempt debt negotiation as an alternative to bankruptcy. However, if your financial circumstances change, we will advise you as to other debt resolution alternatives outlined above, so you can make an informed decision based on our advice. If you have any questions regarding the above options, please contact us for further explanation. If you are ready to proceed, sign below your acknowledgement that you have reviewed all possible debt resolution options and have determined that debt negotiation by TMLG is your preference, subject to your ability to request a different alternative if your circumstances change in the future. Please review Section XV of this Agreement prior to executing your informed consent below. __________________________________________________________________________ __________________________ Client Signature Date
