ADDENDUM FOR NONPROFIT AND GOVERNMENT POOLS AND SUB-POOLS
Public Reporting Burden for this collection of information is estimated to average .25 hours 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. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of
information, including suggestions to reduce this burden, to the Reports Management Officer, REE, Department of Housing and

OMB Approval No. 2502-0576. HUD may not conduct and sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of
information unless the collection displays a valid OMB control number. The collection of information is necessary to ensure that
bidders are qualified to bid on the assets available for sale. HUD will use the information to: (1) monitor program participants’
compliance with requirements, and (2) to detect fraud. The information requested is required to obtain and retain benefits. HUD
is authorized to collect this information under Section 204 of the Departments of Veterans Affairs and Housing and Urban
Development, and Independent Appropriations Act of 1997 (12 U.S.C 1715z-11a) and 24 C.F.R. Part 290. No assurance of
confidentiality is pledged to respondents, although HUD generally discloses this data only in response to a Freedom of
Information Act request to the extent required by law.

NOTE: This Qualification Statement Addendum is applicable ONLY to the FHA Single
Family Loan Sale pools of forward or reverse Mortgage Loans, as applicable, that are
designated for Nonprofit and Government bidders only (“Nonprofit and Government
Pools”) and any sub-pool of loans in the Sale (“Nonprofit and Government Sub-Pools”), if
applicable.
The information requested herein is being requested for the purpose of providing HUD with
information needed to determine whether the Bidder meets the qualification requirements to bid
in the Sale. All or part of the information provided on this form may also be subject to disclosure
under the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. § 552(a) (“FOIA”). Pursuant to HUD’s FOIA
regulations at 24 C.F.R. § 15.108, you may request confidential treatment of business
information submitted in connection with this form and support such request with the facts and
the legal justification for such request. Any request for confidential treatment must state that the
information has not been made public and clearly designate the information that is considered
confidential. Should HUD receive a FOIA request for such confidential information, HUD will
provide you with notice of the request and an opportunity to object to the disclosure in
accordance with HUD’s regulations, unless disclosure is required by federal law. Providing the
requested information is voluntary; however, failure to furnish all of the requested information
may result in the prospective purchaser not being permitted to bid at the Sale and/or not
receiving notice of future HUD/FHA sales initiatives.
NOTICE: Anyone who knowingly or willfully makes false or fraudulent statements or
representations in connection with the disclosures or certifications herein will be
referred to the Office of Inspector General and/or the appropriate law enforcement
officials for investigation and legal enforcement and may be subject to fines,
imprisonment or both. See 18 U.S.C. §§ 1001, 1010, 1012.
