Notes

Mortgages are Portable, Mortgages are Flexible, Under payments allowed, Overpayments allowed.

If you move house and the lender is able to offer you a new loan, you can keep this mortgage product and you will not have to pay an early repayment charge if you transfer the balance and the terms of this product to the new loan for the remainder of the Benefit Period. This product may not be available for any additional borrowing above the balance transferred when completing your new mortgage. This does not guarantee acceptance of any future loan application.

Product is not CAT standard.

Payment Holidays Allowed. When you have built up an overpayment reserve, you have the option to use this reserve to apply for a payment holiday from your normal monthly payment provided that you have sufficient overpayment funds.

Borrow Back Allowed. When you have built up an overpayment reserve, you have the option to use this reserve to Borrow Back for any purpose. If you choose to borrow back, your outstanding balance and monthly payments will be recalculated on the day the sum was borrowed back.

You may make overpayments on request to UCBHL. Overpayments will be applied to your Overpayment Reserve unless a Lump Sum Payment of the Balance is requested.

An Early Repayment Change on full overpayment amount, as specified in section 10, will apply if you fully repay the mortgage, transfer to another product or make overpayments in excess of £500 per calendar month during the benefit period.

Lump Sum Payments must be received at least 9 days prior to your monthly payment date to affect the following month's payment.

Unless UCBHL decides to apply any lump sum received in any other order, Lump Sum Payments will be applied in the following order to pay:

1) Any outstanding fees, costs, charges applied to the account.

2) Any other arrears or interest on arrears shown on the account.

3) Capital.

Borrow Backs may be requested by giving a minimum of 5 working days notice. The minimum withdrawal from the Overpayment Reserve is £500. Any Overpayment or Lump Sum Payment requires 6 working days notice to clear before they can be Borrowed Back. UCBHL reserves the right to refuse to allow further Borrow Back if any of the events of Defaults listed in section six of the Terms and Conditions occur.

The monthly Payments specified are calculated on the Balance on your mortgage account at completion. Following Borrow back or Lump Sum Payments the balance on your account will change and your Monthly Payments will be altered accordingly.

By prior arrangement you may make Underpayments or take Payment Holidays subject to you having an overpayment Reserve balance equal to or greater than the request.

When you have built up an overpayment reserve, you have the option to use this reserve to reduce your monthly payment

until you have used up the value of your reserve.

- The Lender will consider cases of financial difficulty and mortgage arrears sympathetically.

- The Lender follows the general principles of the Council of Mortgage Lenders' Statement of Practice on Handling Arrears and Possessions, including :

a) with your co-operation, developing a plan with you for dealing with your financial difficulties and clearing the arrears, consistent with both your interests and those of the Lender.

b) possession of your property will be sought only as a last resort when attempts to reach alternative arrangements with you have been unsuccessful.
