    FNMA buys mortgages on the secondary market

    1 FNMA pools

    mortgages into packaged securities

    2 FNMA sells mortgaged-

    3 FNMA is a critical component to the United States ability to lead the

    world in homeownership rates providing stability, credibility, and liquidity to the mortgage market

  • Conclusion Investment Overview

    Valuation Considerations Conclusion Litigation

    Investment Thesis

    Shareholders are suing the US Treasury over unlawful seizure of private assets

    This seizure of shareholder assets is a violation of the

    Takings Clause of the 5th Amendment

    Should the court rule in favor of shareholders, we believe substantial value to be unlocked

    FNMA presents an astounding 10-15x in upside potential

  • Conclusion Investment Overview

    Valuation Considerations Conclusion Litigation

    FNMA Timeline

    Government spends $188bn to bail out FNMA in exchange for senior preferred stock offering a 10% dividend

    Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) puts FNMA under conservatorship

    2008:

    Financial Crisis

    2012: Government

    amends agreement

    Current: Ongoing litigation

    Future: shareholders

    win/lose

    FNMA unexpectedly returns to profitability

    US Government forgoes previous dividend policy and lays claim to all FNMA profits effectively shutting off equity holders from future earnings

    Shareholders file lawsuits against the US Government alleging the Treasury acted illegally when it amended the terms of FNMAs deal with the government

    There are two possible outcomes for FNMAs shareholders as value is derived from future legislation, not FNMAs core business

    the Takings Clause of the 5th Amendment

    Litigation Overview

    um

    ent

    Sup

    po

    rt

    The Treasurys 2012 amendment to the SPS agreement is illegal under the Takings Clause of the 5th Amendment and is an abuse of power as a conservator

    As FNMA is a GSE and the FHFA is its appointed conservator, FHFA has unrestricted control over the company to impose any changes to the SPS agreement

    Conservative interpretation of HERA governing FHFA

    Precedent court case

    Expert opinion

    Very liberal interpretation of HERA and FDIA

  • Investment Overview

    Valuation Considerations Conclusion Litigation

    HERA and FDIA Language

    The Conservators duty is to operate, rehabilitate, reorganize, and restore the health of the troubled institution. When that is achieved, the conservatorship is terminated,

    and the institution is returned to the private sector. 1145, HERA (2008)

    FHFA & Treasury Argument:

    Like 11 of the FDIA, 1145 of HERA

    says the conservator has a higher power than any and all stakeholders in

    the business

    This sounds like property rights of

    stakeholders are wiped out under

    conservatorship; however

    Precedent Case

    OMelveney & Myers v. FDIC (1994)

    American Diversified Savings Bank (ADSB) shareholders in conflict with conservator

    The FDIC believes its fiduciary duty is to taxpayers, not to ADSB shareholders

    Supreme Court rules 9-0 in favor of shareholders

    The OMelveney & Myers v. FDIC case serves as an effective precedent that tells us courts will issue a ruling in favor of FNMA shareholders

    Expert Opinions

    reason for winding it downyou still need to provide just compensation for existing stakeholders.

    Expert Opinions

    If there is disclosure regarding future Fannie and Freddie earnings and the administration has a commitment that

    existing Fannie and Freddie common equity holders will never receive any future positive earningsthis commitment would

    be material to investors and should be disclosed.

    Expert sentiment is overwhelmingly in favor of FNMA shareholders:

    Additionally, experts agree that FNMA has a case on both a constitutional

    and contractual basis.

    Government Plans for FNMA

    1

    Only if the government wipes out shareholders through legislation means will it be able to shut down FNMA

    2 A new system would feature several smaller versions of FNMA in which the government would financially back mortgagesnot firms.

    The governments plans for FNMA do not impact FNMAs value unless the government is able to wipe out

    private investors.

    Risks

    There is no precedent that dictates FHFA cannot abuse its conservator powers to eliminate equity holders

    OMelveney & Myers v. FDIC Gave a related decision that the

    FDICs role as a conservator was to maximize firm value

    FNMAs stock price currently reflects concerns over distributable cash flows, not the fundamentals

    of the core business

    The core business will struggle if the overall housing market

    deteriorates- eroding FNMAs significant upside potential

  • Investment Overview

    Valuation Considerations Conclusion Litigation

    Circumstances Surrounding Entering

    Boards of Fannie and Freddie consented to being put into conservatorship because that would insulate the boards from liability

    At the time, the board consented to entering conservatorship on a number of agreements- one of which was that it would remain publicly held so it could emerge from conservatorship as a private company with normal corporate governance structure.

    Had the board not consented to entering conservatorship, FHFA did NOT have the statutory authority to force the company in. So turning back on this is highly illegal

    FHFA now says they have a responsibility to taxpayers to destroy it but! HERA and FDIA and Precedent court cases tell us as a conservator, you owe shareholders more than taxpayers

    DCF Flaws

    We do not believe there is a material variant perspective when pricing the fundamentals of a $300bn secondary mortgage financing giant

    Consequently, we believe analyst estimates serve as our best insight into the value of FNMA under normal capital payout structures

    Additionally, applying a single WACC for FNMA is inappropriate, as the risk of FNMA is tied to its capital structure-related cash flow considerations, not the core fundamentals of the business.

    Why is it mispriced?

    Overly Negative Investor Sentiment Few people want to be involved with a company that was at the headlines of 2008s housing meltdown

    2008 overshadows the litigation thesis

    Unique Risk Appetite Required Few investors are willing to invest in something where a 100% loss is possible, ignoring the significant upside.

    Litigation Analysis Our precedent case is not a direct reference to the FHFA-HERA case, as it relates to FDIC-FDIA but given how FHFA-HERA are modeled after FDIC-FDIA we believe it is a perfect precedent case nonetheless.

    Housing Industry in Regards to FNMA

    As rates rise, lenders will loosen rates and more mortgages will be available on the market

    Since 1999, mortgage purchase applications and all measures of sales activity have actually been higher when mortgage rates were higher. -Forbes

    In 2013, 2.5 million underwater homeowners regained positive equity status thanks to an increase in housing value which strengthens FNMAs existing portfolio

    Why? As default risk in FNMAs portfolio decreases, FNMAs investments are more likely to reach maturity

    Forecasted market trends do not negatively affect FNMAs business model

    Frankly, we see that our retail execution, selling individual homes to individual buyers, as still our best execution strategy. So, we will still continue to do the vast bulk of our executions in that way. FNMA CEO Timothy Mayopoulus (Q4 2013)
