    reimbursement in connection with this foreclosure action.

    15. Bank Midwest is the owner and holder of the Notes and Mortgages, due demand

    has been made for payment, and payment has been refused. Clemens have been provided with

    notices to cure default and notices that if she has not corrected the defaults, Bank Midwest may

    exercise its rights against her and the property under Iowa law without further notice. Clemens

    18. According to Bank Midwests belief and information available to it at this time, it

    appears that none of Defendant(s) are under any legal disability, are not prisoners in a

    reformatory or penitentiary facility, are not in the military services of the United States of

    America, and are not entitled to privileges under the provisions of the Soldiers and Sailors Civil

    Relief Act of 1940 or similar act.

    19. Defendant(s), other than Clemens, may claim some interest in the real estate being

    foreclosed against by reason of the following judgments against Clemens:

    interest by reason of a judgment entered May 3, 2011, in favor of said judgment creditor,

    in the Iowa District Court in and for Sac County, Case No. LACV019234, for the amount

    of $6,205.51, with interest at the rate of 2.27% from January 31, 2011, plus costs of said

    action; and

    b. Judgment creditor, TWILIGHT ACRES, may claim some interest by

    reason of a judgment entered November 6, 2012, in favor of said judgment creditor, in

    the Iowa District Court in and for Sac County, Case No. SCSC015173, for the amount of

    $5,000.00, with interest at the rate of 2.17% from September 24, 2012, plus costs of said

    action.

    20. The interests of all of the above Defendants/judgment lien holders are inferior and

    subordinate to the interest of Bank Midwest.

    18. According to Bank Midwests belief and information available to it at this time, it

    appears that none of Defendant(s) are under any legal disability, are not prisoners in a

    Relief Act of 1940 or similar act.

    in the Iowa District Court in and for Sac County, Case No. LACV019234, for the amount

    of $6,205.51, with interest at the rate of 2.27% from January 31, 2011, plus costs of said

    $5,000.00, with interest at the rate of 2.17% from September 24, 2012, plus costs of said

    20. The interests of all of the above Defendants/judgment lien holders are inferior and

    subordinate to the interest of Bank Midwest.
