Let's see, loan goes neg am until it reaches 110% - 115% of the original loan amount... Couple that with the amount of interest accrued on the delinquency (let's say 5% - 10% of the orginal balance... voila! So what Wells is actually doing is forgiving the interest on the loan that has not been paid, NOT true principal reduction.
