Incentive Fees for Workout Options

The following table lists the incentive fees for certain workout options that will be paid on mortgage loans where Fannie Mae bears the risk of loss.

Note: Servicer incentive fees for retention workout options will be cumulatively capped at a total of $1,000 per mortgage loan, regardless of whether the initial retention workout option and any subsequent retention workout option were a result of the same hardship. Liquidation workout options are not subject to the cumulative incentive fee cap.
