On July 1, 2016, the Board of Directors (“Board”) of Nationstar Mortgage Holdings Inc. (“Nationstar”) unanimously elected Jay Bray, President & Chief Executive Officer of Nationstar, as Chairman of the Board. Mr. Bray’s additional governance responsibilities are attributable to the considerable value he has contributed to Nationstar over the past 16 years. The Board believes the combined role of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer promotes unified leadership and execution of Nationstar’s strategic plan, facilitates information flow between management and the Board and enables Nationstar to benefit from Mr. Bray’s significant institutional and industry knowledge and experience. Mr. Bray succeeds Wesley R. Edens, who retired as a member and Chairman of the Board on July 1, 2016. Mr. Edens remarked, “I want to congratulate Jay on being elected Chairman of Nationstar's Board, on which it has been a pleasure to serve. I believe Nationstar's operations are strong, and I remain optimistic about Nationstar's future.”
