Our business is subject to extensive regulation and supervision by federal, state, local and foreign governmental authorities, including the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), the HUD, the SEC and various state agencies that license our servicing and lending activities. Accordingly, we are regularly subject to examinations, inquiries and requests, including civil investigative demands and subpoenas. The GSEs and their conservator, the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), Ginnie Mae, the United States Treasury Department, various investors, non-Agency securitization trustees and others also subject us to periodic reviews and audits.

We must comply with a large number of federal, state and local consumer protection and other laws and regulations, including, among others, the CARES Act, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the Dodd-Frank Act), the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA), the Truth in Lending Act (TILA), the Servicemembers Civil

Relief Act, the Homeowners Protection Act, the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA), the Federal Trade Commission Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, as well as individual state and local laws, and federal and local bankruptcy rules. These laws and regulations apply to all facets of our business, including, but not limited to, licensing, loan originations, consumer disclosures, default servicing and collections, foreclosure, filing of claims, registration of vacant or foreclosed properties, handling of escrow accounts, payment application, interest rate adjustments, assessment of fees, loss mitigation, use of credit reports, handling of unclaimed property, safeguarding of non-public personally identifiable information about our customers, and the ability of our employees to work remotely. These complex requirements can and do change as laws and regulations are enacted, promulgated, amended, interpreted and enforced. The general trend among federal, state and local legislative bodies and regulatory agencies as well as state attorneys general has been toward increasing laws, regulations, investigative proceedings and enforcement actions with regard to residential real estate lenders and servicers, which could increase the possibility of adverse regulatory action against us.

In addition, a number of foreign laws and regulations apply to our operations outside of the U.S., including laws and regulations that govern licensing, privacy, employment, safety, payroll and other taxes and insurance and laws and regulations that govern the creation, continuation and the winding up of companies as well as the relationships between shareholders, our corporate entities, the public and the government in these countries. Our foreign subsidiaries are subject to inquiries and examinations from foreign governmental regulators in the countries in which we operate outside of the U.S.

Our licensed entities are required to renew their licenses, typically on an annual basis, and to do so they must satisfy the license renewal requirements of each jurisdiction, which generally include financial requirements such as providing audited financial statements and satisfying minimum net worth requirements and non-financial requirements such as satisfactory completion of examinations relating to the licensee’s compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

We are also subject to seller/servicer obligations under agreements with the GSEs, HUD, FHA, VA and Ginnie Mae, including capital requirements related to tangible net worth, as defined by the applicable agency, liquidity requirements, an obligation to provide audited financial statements within 90 days of the applicable entity’s fiscal year end as well as extensive requirements regarding servicing, selling and other matters.

PHH is required to maintain a 6% minimum ratio of tangible net worth to total assets (leverage ratio) pursuant to Agency rules. As issuer of HMBS, we received an exemption to exclude securitized reverse mortgage loans held for investment pledged to HMBS ($10.6 billion at March 31, 2025) from total assets in the computation of the leverage ratio due to the “lack of true sale accounting treatment of the HMBS Program” as per the Ginnie Mae guide.

We believe our licensed entities were in compliance with all of their minimum net worth and liquidity requirements at March 31, 2025. Our non-Agency servicing agreements also contain requirements regarding servicing practices and other matters, and a failure to comply with these requirements could have a material adverse impact on our business.

The most restrictive of the various net worth and liquidity requirements for licensing and seller/servicer obligations referenced above are mostly based on the UPB of assets serviced by PHH. Under the applicable formula, the required minimum net worth was $513.6 million at March 31, 2025. PHH’s adjusted net worth was $639.5 million at March 31, 2025. The most restrictive of the various liquidity requirements for licensing and seller/servicer obligations referenced above pertains to PHH and the required minimum liquidity was $136.6 million at March 31, 2025. PHH’s eligible liquidity, as defined, for licensing and seller/servicer obligations was $217.8 million at March 31, 2025.

Ginnie Mae announced a new risk-based capital ratio (RBCR) effective on December 31, 2024 for Ginnie Mae issuers. Ginnie Mae issued a waiver extending the deadline by which PHH must meet the RBCR requirements to October 1, 2025. PHH will be required to maintain a minimum of 6% ratio of Adjusted Net Worth less Excess MSRs, as defined, to risk weighted assets. Excess MSR is deducted from Adjusted Net Worth when the MSR portfolio exceeds 100% of the Adjusted Net Worth. Government and GSE conforming loans held-for-sale are risk weighted at 20%, other assets at 100% and MSRs at 250%. HECM reverse mortgage loans held for investment are risk weighted at 0%. MSR values may be reduced by 10% to 50% depending on historical Hedge Efficacy ratio of fair value changes of MSR hedging derivatives and MSR fair value changes due to market and model changes (e.g., 50% MSR value reduction for 80-120% Hedge Efficacy). We are currently implementing certain actions intended to achieve compliance with the requirements. We intend to continue to operate our Ginnie Mae issuer and other activities through PHH which would be subject to the risk-based capital rules, and separately conduct certain GSE MSR investment activities through PHH Asset Services LLC (PAS), a wholly owned subsidiary of PHH Corporation and Onity. We have received all necessary licensing and regulatory approvals to operate PAS except for one state with whom discussions are ongoing.

New York Department of Financial Services (NY DFS). The NY DFS currently limits our ability to acquire MSRs with respect to New York loans, so that Onity may not increase its aggregate portfolio of New York loans serviced or subserviced by Onity by more than 2% per year. This restriction will remain in place until the NY DFS determines that Onity has developed a
