Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 18, 2010, PHH Mortgage Corporation (PHH Mortgage), a wholly-owned subsidiary of PHH
Corporation (the Company), entered into a Second Amended and Restated Master Repurchase Agreement
(the Second Amended Repurchase Agreement), among PHH Mortgage, as seller, and The Royal Bank of
Scotland plc (RBS), as buyer. The Second Amended Repurchase Agreement is effective as of June
25, 2010, and amends and restates the Amended and Restated Master Repurchase Agreement, dated as of
June 26, 2008, by and between PHH Mortgage and RBS.
The Second Amended Repurchase Agreement provides for $800 million in committed mortgage warehouse
capacity (the Mortgage Facility). Subject to compliance with the terms of the Second Amended
Repurchase Agreement, the Mortgage Facility expires on June 24, 2011. The Second Amended
Repurchase Agreement contains various financial and non-financial covenants, including a covenant
requiring the Company to maintain consolidated net worth of not less than $1 billion measured as of
the last day of each fiscal quarter, a covenant requiring the Company to maintain a ratio of
indebtedness to tangible net worth of not greater than 6.5 to 1, and a covenant requiring PHH
Mortgage to maintain at least $2.5 billion of mortgage repurchase or warehouse facilities including
the Mortgage Facility and any uncommitted facilities provided by Fannie Mae to PHH Mortgage.
In connection with the execution and delivery of the Second Amended Repurchase Agreement, the
Company executed a Third Amended and Restated Guaranty (the Third Amended Guaranty), dated as of
June 18, 2010 and effective as of June 25, 2010, in favor of RBS, with regard to certain of the
obligations and covenants of PHH Mortgage under the Second Amended Repurchase Agreement and
agreements related thereto.
The foregoing descriptions of the Second Amended Repurchase Agreement and the Third Amended
Guaranty do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full
text of these agreements, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this Current
