This information is required to obtain a HUD-insured single family mortgage. Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to
average 3 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed,
and completing and reviewing the collection of information. This agency may not conduct or sponsor, and you are not required to respond to, a collection of
information unless that collection displays a valid OMB control number. HUD collects this information to determine the insurability of a mortgage on the
captioned property and may use it to make a final determination as to whether a defect exists and whether the builder must remedy the defect.
Privacy Act Notice: The United States Department of Housing and Urban Development, Federal Housing Administration, is authorized to solicit the information
requested in the form by virtue of Title 12, United States Code, Section 1701 et seq., and regulations promulgated thereunder at Title 12, Code of Federal

For good and valuable consideration, and in accordance with Section 801 of the Housing Act of 1954, and Public Law 85-857 (38 U.S.C. 3705), the
undersigned Warrantor hereby warrants to the Purchaser(s) or Owner(s) identified in the caption hereof, and to his/her successors or transferees, that:
The dwelling located on the property identified in the caption hereof is constructed in substantial conformity with the plans and specifications
(including any amendments thereof, or changes and variations therein) which have been approved in writing by the Federal Housing Commissioner
or the Secretary of Veterans Affairs on which the Federal Housing Commissioner or the Secretary of Veterans Affairs based the valuation of the
dwelling: Provided, however, That this warranty shall apply only to such instances of substantial nonconformity as to which the Purchaser(s)/
Owner(s) or his/her (their) successors or transferees shall have given written notice to the Warrantor at any time or times within one year from the
date of original conveyance of title to such Purchaser(s)/Owner(s) or the date of initial occupancy, whichever first occurs: Provided further,
however, That in the event (1) the Purchaser(s)/Owner(s) acquired title to the captioned property prior to the completion of construction of the dwelling
thereon, such notice of nonconformity to the Warrantor may be given any time or times within one year from the date of completion or initial occupancy
of such dwelling, whichever first occurs, or (2) where it has been necessary to postpone improvements such notice of nonconformity to the Warrantor
as to such incomplete items may be given at any time or times within one year from the date of full completion of each of such items.
The term “dwelling” as used herein shall be deemed to include all improvements or appurtenances set forth in the plans and specifications upon
which the Federal Housing Commissioner or the Secretary of Veterans Affairs has based the valuation of the property, excepting those
constructed by a municipality or other government authority.
The undersigned Warrantor further warrants to the Purchaser(s)/ Owner(s) or his/her (their) successors or transferees, the property against defects
in equipment, material, or workmanship and materials supplied or performed by the Warrantor or any subcontractor or supplier at any tier resulting
in noncompliance with standards of quality as measured by acceptable trade practices. This warranty shall continue for a period of one year from the
date of original conveyance of title to such Purchaser(s) or from the date of full completion of each of any items completed after conveyance of title.
The Warrantor shall remedy, at the Warrantor’s expense, any defect(s) of equipment, material, or workmanship furnished by the Warrantor. Warrantor
shall restore any work damaged in fulfilling the terms and conditions of this warranty.
If a manufactured (mobile) home was erected on this property, the Warrantor
further warrants that (1) the property (other than the manufactured unit itself)
complies with the submitted construction exhibits; (2) the manufactured home
sustained no hidden damage during transportation and erection; and (3) if the home
was manufactured in separate sections, the sections were properly joined and sealed.

Manufacturer's Name, Address & Phone Number (Include Area Code)

This warranty shall be in addition to, and not in derogation of, all other rights and privileges which such Purchaser(s)/ Owner(s) or his/her (their)
successors or transferees may have under any other law or instrument, and shall survive the conveyance of title, delivery of possession of the property,
or other final settlement made by the Purchaser(s)/ Owner(s), and shall be binding on the Warrantor notwithstanding any provision to the contrary
contained in the contract of purchase or other writing executed by the Purchaser(s)/ Owner(s) or his/her (their) successors or transferees heretofore
or contemporaneously with the execution of this agreement or prior to final settlement.
This warranty is executed for the purpose of inducing the Federal Housing Commissioner or the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to make, to guarantee
or to insure a mortgage on the captioned property, and the person signing for the Warrantor represents and certifies that he/she is authorized to execute the
same by the warrantor and by his/her signature the Warrantor is duly bound under the terms and conditions of said warranty. The FHA Commissioner or
the Secretary of Veterans Affairs reserves the right to make a final determination as to whether a defect exists and whether the builder must remedy the defect.
