1 “Net worth” means the excess of total assets at fair market value, including home furnishings and automobiles, over total liabilities. In excluding the value of the primary residence from net worth, you should exclude any net equity in your primary residence (i.e., the amount by which the residence’s estimated fair market value exceeds the current outstanding balance of any mortgage or other indebtedness secured by the residence). If the current outstanding balance of any such mortgage or other indebtedness exceeds the residence’s estimated fair market value, you should reduce your net worth by the amount of any such excess indebtedness. The estimated fair market value of a primary residence and the amount of outstanding indebtedness should be measured as of the date that you complete this registration form.  In addition, if outstanding indebtedness secured by the undersigned’s primary residence has increased (other than as a result of the acquisition of such primary residence) in the 60-day period preceding completion of this registration form (e.g., due to a home equity loan), the undersigned should reduce his or her net worth by the amount of such increase.
