Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On March 12, 2013, PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust (the “Company”), through two of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, PennyMac Corp. (“PMC”) and PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust Holdings I, LLC (“PMITH”), entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to its master repurchase agreement, dated December 9, 2010 (the “Repurchase Agreement”), by and among Citibank, N.A. (“Citi”) and PMC, PMITH and PennyMac Loan Services, LLC (“PLS”).
Pursuant to the terms of the Repurchase Agreement, PMC and PMITH may sell to, and later repurchase from, Citi distressed residential mortgage loans. The principal amount paid by Citi is based on a percentage of the market value of the mortgage loans. Upon the repurchase, or the sale, securitization or liquidation, of a mortgage loan, PMC or PMITH, as applicable, is required to repay Citi the principal amount related to such mortgage loan plus accrued interest (at a rate reflective of the current market and based on LIBOR plus a margin) to the date of such repurchase, sale, securitization or liquidation. The Repurchase Agreement is committed to April 19, 2013, and the obligations of PMC and PMITH are fully guaranteed by the Company. The mortgage loans are serviced by PLS pursuant to the terms of the Repurchase Agreement. Other material terms of the Repurchase Agreement and related guaranty are described more fully in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on December 15, 2010.
Under the terms of the Amendment, the maximum aggregate purchase price provided for in the Repurchase Agreement was increased from $450 million to $650 million. The Company, through PMC and PMITH, is required to pay Citi a fee for the structuring of the Amendment, as well as certain other administrative costs and expenses. All other terms and conditions of the Repurchase Agreement and the related guaranty remain the same in all material respects.
The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment, which has been filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 1.1, the full text of the Repurchase Agreement and the related guaranty, which were filed as Exhibits 1.1 and 1.2, respectively, to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on December 15, 2010, and the full text of all other amendments to the Repurchase Agreement previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
