Residential mortgage loans are sold through one of the following
methods: (i) sales to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and loan
sales to other investors guaranteed by Ginnie Mae (collectively
“GSEs”), or (ii) sales to private investors.
During the year ended December 31, 2010, 95% of mortgage
loan sales were to the GSEs and the remaining 5% were sold to
private investors.

The Company may have continuing involvement in mortgage loans
sold by retaining one or more of the following: servicing rights
and servicing obligations, recourse obligations
<font style="white-space: nowrap">and/or</font>
beneficial interests (such as interest-only strips,
principal-only strips, or subordinated interests). The Company
is exposed to interest rate risks through its continuing
involvement with mortgage loans sold, including mortgage
servicing rights and other retained interests, as the value of
those instruments fluctuate as changes in interest rates impact
borrower prepayments on the underlying mortgage loans. (See
Note 7, “Derivatives” for additional information
regarding interest rate risk.) The Company did not retain any
interests from sales or securitizations other than mortgage
servicing rights during the years ended December 31, 2010
and 2009.

During the year ended December 31, 2010, mortgage servicing
rights were retained on approximately 95% of mortgage loans
sold. Conforming conventional loans serviced are sold or
securitized through Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac programs. Such
servicing is generally performed on a non-recourse basis,
whereby foreclosure losses are the responsibility of Fannie Mae
or Freddie Mac. Government loans serviced are generally sold or
securitized through Ginnie Mae programs and are either insured
against loss by the Federal Housing Administration or partially
guaranteed against loss by the Department of Veteran Affairs.
Additionally, non-conforming mortgage loans are serviced for
various private investors on a non-recourse basis. See
Note 5, “Mortgage Servicing Rights” for further
information related to the capitalized servicing portfolio and
mortgage servicing rights.

A majority of mortgage loans are sold on a non-recourse basis;
however, representations and warranties have been made that are
customary for loan sale transactions, including eligibility
characteristics of the mortgage loans and underwriting
responsibilities, in connection with the sales of these assets.
See Note 14, “Credit Risk” for a further
description of representation and warranty obligations.
