Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On July 31, 2015, PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust (the “Company”), through its wholly-owned subsidiary, PennyMac Operating Partnership, L.P. (“POP”), entered into an amendment to its master repurchase agreement, dated July 9, 2014, by and among Bank of America, N.A. (“BANA”), on the one hand, and POP, on the other hand (the “BANA Repurchase Agreement”).

 

Pursuant to the terms of the BANA Repurchase Agreement, POP may sell to BANA, and later repurchase, newly originated mortgage loans. The BANA Repurchase Agreement may be used to fund newly originated mortgage loans that have been purchased by PennyMac Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“PMC”), from correspondent lenders and pledged by PMC to POP pending sale and/or securitization. The obligations of POP are fully guaranteed by the Company.

 

Under the terms of the amendment, the maximum aggregate transaction limit was temporarily increased from $550 million to $650 million, until September 30, 2015, with such $100 million increase on an uncommitted basis. The Company, through POP, is required to pay BANA a facility fee relating to the increase in the aggregate transaction limit, as well as certain other costs and expenses associated with the preparation of the amendment. All other terms and conditions of the BANA Repurchase Agreement remain the same in all material respects.

 

The foregoing description of the BANA Repurchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the BANA Repurchase Agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K as filed with the SEC on July 14, 2014, and any amendments to the BANA Repurchase Agreement filed thereafter.

 

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
