On August 24, 2018, PennyMac Financial Services, Inc. (the “Company”), through its indirect controlled subsidiary, PennyMac Loan Services, LLC (“PLS”), entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to its Master Repurchase Agreement, dated as of July 2, 2013, by and among Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A., as buyer (“Morgan Stanley”), Morgan Stanley Mortgage Capital Holdings LLC, as agent, and PLS, as seller (the “Repurchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Repurchase Agreement, PLS may sell to, and later repurchase from, Morgan Stanley certain newly originated mortgage loans that are originated by PLS or purchased by PLS from correspondent sellers directly or through a subsidiary of PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust (NYSE: PMT) and, in either case, held by PLS pending sale and/or securitization. The obligations of PLS under the Repurchase Agreement are fully guaranteed by Private National Mortgage Acceptance Company, LLC and the mortgage loans are serviced by PLS.    

 

Under the terms of the Amendment,  the committed amount available for purchases provided for in the Repurchase Agreement was decreased from $175 million to $100 million. In addition, the termination date for the Repurchase Agreement was extended to August 23, 2019. All other terms and conditions of the Repurchase Agreement, including the $500 million maximum aggregate purchase price, remain the same in all material respects. The Company, through PLS, is required to pay Morgan Stanley a commitment fee, as well as certain other costs and expenses associated with the preparation of the amendment.
