On March 10, 2014, PSART issued variable funding notes with an aggregate maximum principal amount of $130 million. Upon closing, a portion of the proceeds were used to repay the outstanding balance of the Fannie Mae Servicing advance facility. The notes have a revolving period through March 9, 2015 and the final maturity of the notes is March 15, 2017. On May 29, 2014, the PSART facility was increased by $25 million to provide a total aggregate maximum principal borrowing capacity of $155 million. |

|
Holders of the Convertible notes due 2014 may convert all or any portion at any time through the third business day immediately preceding their maturity on September 1, 2014. As of June 30, 2014, no note holders have converted. As of June 30, 2014, the ending share price did not reach the conversion price. The 2014 notes currently may only be settled in cash upon conversion because the Company has not sought shareholder approval, as required by the New York Stock Exchange, to allow for the issuance of shares of common stock or securities convertible into common stock that will, or will upon issuance, equal or exceed 20% of outstanding shares. |
|
Holders of the Convertible notes due 2017 may convert all or any portion of the notes, at their option, prior to December 15, 2016 only upon the occurrence of certain triggering events related to (i) the price of the notes, (ii) the price of the Company’s Common stock, or (iii) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. Holders of the Convertible notes due 2017 may also convert all or any portion of the notes at any time, at their option from December 15, 2016 through the third scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. Upon conversion, the principal amount of the converted notes is payable in cash and the Company will pay or deliver (at its election): (i) cash; (ii) shares of the Company’s Common stock; or (iii) a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s Common stock; to settle amounts due if the conversion value exceeds the principal of the converted notes. As of June 30, 2014, the if-converted value exceeded the principal amount of the notes by $199 million, and the notes met the requirements for conversion. |

Debt Covenants |
|
Certain debt arrangements require the maintenance of certain financial ratios and contain other affirmative and negative covenants, termination events, and other restrictions, including, but not limited to, covenants relating to material adverse changes, consolidated net worth, liquidity, profitability, and available borrowing capacity maintenance, restrictions on indebtedness of the Company and its material subsidiaries, mergers, liens, liquidations, and restrictions on certain types of payments, including dividends and stock repurchases. Certain other debt arrangements, including the Fannie Mae committed facility, contain provisions that permit the Company or our counterparty to terminate the arrangement upon the occurrence of certain events. |
|
As of June 30, 2014, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants related to its debt arrangements. |
|
In June and July 2014, all of the mortgage warehouse facilities were amended in order to facilitate the sale of the Fleet business as discussed in Note 2, “Discontinued Operations”. Upon the completion of the disposal of the Fleet business, among other covenants, certain mortgage repurchase facilities require that the Company maintain: (i) on the last day of each fiscal quarter, net worth of at least $1.0 billion; (ii) a ratio of indebtedness to tangible net worth no greater than 5.75 to 1; and (iii) a minimum of $1.0 billion in committed mortgage warehouse financing capacity excluding any mortgage warehouse capacity provided by GSEs and certain mortgage gestation facilities. These covenants represent the most restrictive net worth, liquidity, and debt to equity covenants; however, certain other outstanding debt agreements contain liquidity and debt to equity covenants that are less restrictive. |
|
Under certain of the Company’s financing, servicing, hedging and related agreements and instruments, the lenders or trustees have the right to notify the Company if they believe it has breached a covenant under the operative documents and may declare an event of default. If one or more notices of default were to be given, the Company believes it would have various periods in which to cure certain of such events of default. If the Company does not cure the events of default or obtain necessary waivers within the required time periods, the maturity of certain debt agreements could be accelerated and the ability to incur additional indebtedness could be restricted. In addition, an event of default or acceleration under certain agreements and instruments would trigger cross-default provisions under certain of the Company’s other agreements and instruments. |
