On February 18, 2020, Front Yard Residential Corporation (the “Company”) filed a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in connection with the proposed acquisition of Front Yard Residential Corporation (the “Company” or “Front Yard”) by affiliates of Amherst Residential, LLC (“Amherst”) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February 17, 2020 (as may be amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, BAF Holdings, LLC (“Parent”) and BAF Sub, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”). On March 11, 2020, the Company filed with the SEC its preliminary proxy statement on Schedule 14A and on March 23, 2020, the Company filed with the SEC its definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A relating to the special meeting of stockholders of the Company scheduled to be held on April 27, 2020 (the “Definitive Proxy Statement”) to, among other things, vote on a proposal to approve the merger of the Company with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”) with Merger Sub surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.

Since the initial filing of the preliminary proxy statement on Schedule 14A, four actions (collectively, the “Front Yard Stockholder Actions”) have been filed in federal courts in Delaware, New York and Georgia by purported Front Yard stockholders in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement: Wang v. Front Yard Residential Corporation, Case No. 1:20-cv-00356 (D. Del. Mar. 12, 2020); Rosenblatt v. Front Yard Residential Corporation, et al., Case No. 1:20-cv-00386 (D. Del. Mar. 18, 2020) (the “Rosenblatt Action”); Braunstein v. Front Yard Residential Corporation, et al., Case No. 1:20-cv-02523 (S.D.N.Y. Mar. 24, 2020); and Olson v. Front Yard Residential Corporation, et al., Case No. 1:20-cv-01600-SCJ (N.D. Ga. Apr. 14, 2020). Each of the Front Yard Stockholder Actions names Front Yard and its directors as defendants, and the Rosenblatt Action names Parent and Merger Sub as additional defendants. Each of the Front Yard Stockholder Actions alleges, among other things, that the Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A is false and misleading and/or omits material information concerning the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement in violation of Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Rule 14a-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act. The plaintiffs in the Front Yard Stockholder Actions, among other things, seek to enjoin the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses.
