SCHEDULE B

EXCEPTIONS FROM COVERAGE AND

AFFIRMATIVE ASSURANCES

YOU DO NOT NEED TO ADD EXCEPTIONS TO RESTRICTIONS, EASEMENTS OR MINERALS. THEY ARE GENERALLY EXCEPTED BELOW. THE POLICY ALSO PROVIDES AFFIRMATIVE INSURANCE AS TO THOSE ITEMS. FLORIDA USES A MODIFIED SCHEDULE B. This policy does not insure against loss or damage (and the Company will not pay costs, attorneys' fees or expenses) which arise by reason of the matters set forth below, except to the extent that the Company does insure in accordance with and subject to its terms against loss or damage which the insured shall sustain by reason of any inaccuracies in the affirmative assurances set forth below, except as limited in any addendum attached hereto:

1. Those taxes and special assessments which become due and payable subsequent to Date of Policy. DO YOUR NORMAL TAX AND ASSESSMENT SEARCH. VERIFY THAT TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS ARE PAID CURRENT.

2. Covenants, conditions and restrictions, if any, appearing in the public records. This policy insures that the same have not been violated, except that such affirmative assurance does not extend to covenants, conditions and restrictions relating to environmental protection unless a notice of a violation thereof has been recorded or filed in the public records and is not referenced in an addendum attached hereto. Further, this policy insures that future violation of any covenants, conditions and restrictions appearing in the public records, including any relating to environmental protection, will not result in a forfeiture or reversion of title and that there are no provisions therein under which the lien of the insured mortgage can be extinguished, subordinated or impaired. VERIFY PROPERTY OWNER'S ASSESSMENTS ARE PAID CURRENT UNLESS SUBORDINATE TO THE MORTGAGE. VERIFY NO REVERTER, UNLESS SUBORDINATE TO THE MORTGAGE. IF THERE ARE KNOWN EXISTING RESTRICTION VIOLATIONS, INSURE IF AUTHORIZED OR WILLING TO DO SO.

3. Any easements or servitudes appearing in the public records. This policy insures that none of the improvements encroach upon the easements and that any use of the easements for the purposes granted or reserved will not interfere with or damage the improvements, including lawns, shrubbery and trees. YOU DO NOT NEED TO REQUIRE A SURVEY IN ESTABLISHED SUBDIVISIONS, UNLESS YOU ARE AWARE OF COMMON SURVEY PROBLEMS OR STATE LAW REQUIRES A SURVEY. IF THERE ARE KNOWN ENCROACHMENTS, INSURE IF AUTHORIZED OR WILLING TO DO SO. IF YOU ARE FURNISHED A SURVEY, REVIEW IT TO DETERMINE IF EXCEPTIONS MUST BE ADDED TO THE ADDENDUM.

4. Any lease, grant, exception or reservation of minerals or mineral rights appearing in the public records. This policy insures that the use of the land for residential one-to-four family dwelling purposes is not, and will not be, affected or impaired by reason of any lease, grant, exception or reservation of minerals or mineral rights appearing in the public records and this policy insures against damage to existing improvements, including lawns, shrubbery and trees, resulting from the future exercise of any right to use the surface of the land for the extraction or development of the minerals or mineral rights so leased, granted, excepted or reserved. Nothing herein shall insure against loss or damage resulting from subsidence. YOU DO NOT NEED TO REQUIRE SURFACE WAIVERS OF OUTSTANDING MINERALS. YOU MAY GIVE THIS COVERAGE, UNLESS KNOWN USE OF SURFACE FOR MINERAL DEVELOPMENT IN IMMEDIATE AREA.

5. This policy insures against loss or damage by reason of any violation, variation, encroachment or adverse circumstance affecting the title that would have been disclosed by an accurate survey. The term "encroachment" includes encroachments of existing improvements located on the land onto adjoining land, and encroachments onto the land of existing improvements located on adjoining land. YOU DO NOT NEED TO REQUIRE A SURVEY IN ESTABLISHED SUBDIVISIONS, UNLESS YOU ARE AWARE OF COMMON SURVEY PROBLEMS OR STATE LAW REQUIRES A SURVEY. IF THERE ARE KNOWN ENCROACHMENTS, INSURE IF AUTHORIZED OR WILLING TO DO SO. IF YOU ARE FURNISHED A SURVEY, REVIEW IT TO DETERMINE IF EXCEPTIONS MUST BE ADDED TO THE ADDENDUM.

ADDENDUM TO SHORT FORM RESIDENTIAL LOAN POLICY

ATTACH THE ADDENDUM ONLY IF YOU ADD SPECIAL EXCEPTIONS. YOU DO NOT NEED TO EXCEPT TO EASEMENTS, MINERALS OR RESTRICTIONS IN THE ADDENDUM. IF YOU ADD AN ADDENDUM, YOU MUST BE SURE IT ACCEPTABLE TO THE LENDER. OTHERWISE, YOU MAY NOT ISSUE THE POLICY.
