CROWDFUNDING LEHMAN BROTHERS SUBPRIME FALLOUT TO PREVENT

FORECLOSURES

Lehman Brotherssubprime mortgages, fallout from thelargest bankruptcy in U.S. history,are

beingcrowdfundedbyAmerican Homeowner Preservation(AHP). Consisting primarily of loans

birthed by Lehman,AHPs2013D opportunityempowers accredited investors to acquire the

interests in the $3,960,000 offering and earn returns of 9 12% on terms of 15 years.

Once acquired, AHP offers borrowers sustainable solutions to stay in their homes,

strengthening families and communities.

150-year old Lehman Brothers, the fourth-largest investment bank in the U.S.

(behindGoldman Sachs,Morgan StanleyandMerrill Lynch), buckled under the strain of

billions in toxic subprime mortgage holdings which had plunged in value. Lehmans collapse

culminated in a September 2008 bankruptcy filing, amatter which continues to be

resolved. Wall Streets subprime lunacy doomed many of these borrowers to fail with terms

which were impossible to meet. Now that these loans are being acquired at a 57% discount

to existing debt, AHP has substantial flexibility to craft terms which are affordable for

families, yet generate attractive returns for investors.

The 51 assets featured in the 2013D offering are secured by properties with a total

estimated value of $7,394,200, resulting in a 54% investment-to-value ratio and a $144,984

average property value. The properties are located nationwide, with the highest

concentration in Brooklyn, New York and the top states being New York, Illinois and Florida.

Loans will be titled in American Homeowner Preservation Trust, withU.S. Bankas

trustee,G&S Fund Servicesas fund administrator andOrion Financial Group as document

custodian. AHP investors own interests in the LLC which is the beneficial owner of the

Trust. The minimum investment is $10,000 and revenue is distributed monthly to investors,

which earn returns of 9% for a 1-year term, 10.2% for 2-years and 12% for 5-years.

American Homeowner Preservation started in 2008 as a 501c3 nonprofit before

transitioning to for profit, evolving into a socially responsible hedge fund which delivered

returns to investors of greater than 14% in 2012 and 2013. However, the 80/20 fee structure

typical of hedge funds was not sufficient to fund AHPs management-intensive workout
