   PRESS        RELEASE:
   Interthinx Hosts Beltway Series Examining the Postelection
   Housing Outlook
   Wed, 19 Dec 2012, 11:59:01 EST

   AGOURA HILLS, Calif., Dec. 19, 2012 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -
   - Interthinx announced today the success of its second in a series of
   Washington, D.C., "beltway breakfast" forums dedicated to building
   confidence in the mortgage markets through a renewed focus on data
   integrity. "The Housing Outlook Postelection" explored how the
   Administration and Congress can work together on the future
   development of solutions and policies that affect the real estate
   finance industry.

   The panel of speakers included:
   * Anne Canfield, executive director, Consumer Mortgage Coalition,
   and president, Canfield & Associates, Inc.
   * John Duncan, principal, Meridian Research Group.
   * Dominique McCoy, senior counsel, House Financial Services
   Committee, Democrats.
   * Alison Beckner, director, Federal Government Accounts, Interthinx (moderator).

   Panelists examined regulations still pending from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), for example, the
   Qualified Mortgage (QM), the Qualified Residential Mortgage (QRM), and integrated Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act-
   Truth in Lending Act (RESPA-TILA) origination disclosures. They also discussed the various housing bills in Congress such as
   Boxer-Menendez, and how changes in the Senate Banking and House Financial Services Committees might affect legislation
   moving forward.

   "The panelists' comments clearly show that there are great challenges ahead, including the uncertainty in the financial
   services industry that will continue for some time because the vast majority of rulemaking required by the Dodd-Frank Act is
   yet to come," said Ann Fulmer, vice president of industry relations for Interthinx. "Data transparency and technologies that
   support the integrity of the mortgage lending process will be keys to success. Coordination among members of the housing
   and finance industries, the Administration, and Congress is also critical as we all strive to implement new regulations and
   assist policymakers. And we still have a lot of work ahead of us."

   Interthinx plans to host future "beltway breakfast" forums in the Washington, D.C., area focused on additional issues such as
   data integrity, data transparency, regulatory compliance, risk reduction, and strategies to conserve federal tax dollars. For
