  2. Lender in case of death of the borrower
  3. Borrower in case of death

Explanation
Answer A - A mortgage insurance premium is not a form of life insurance. It is a fund set up with money charged and collected from the borrower at the time the loan is made and paid to FHA. The money is then used to reimburse the lender in the event the borrower defaults on the loan.  FHA-backed lenders use mortgage insurance premiums (MIP) as a tool to protect themselves against higher-risk borrowers.
