2. Significant Transactions

ONEMAIN ACQUISITION

On November 15, 2015, OMH completed its acquisition of OneMain from CitiFinancial Credit Company (“Citigroup”) for approximately $4.5 billion in cash (the “OneMain Acquisition”). OneMain is a leading consumer finance company in the United States, providing personal loans to primarily middle income households through a national, community based network. The results of OneMain are included in our consolidated results from November 1, 2015, pursuant to our contractual agreements with Citigroup.

We allocated the purchase price to the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their respective estimated fair values as of October 31, 2015. Given the timing of this transaction and complexity of the purchase accounting, our estimate of the fair value adjustment specific to the acquired loans and intangible assets was preliminary, and our determination of the final tax positions with Citigroup was also preliminary. During 2016, we finalized the accounting for these matters as shown in the table below.

The excess of the purchase price over the fair values, which we recorded as goodwill, was determined as follows:

(dollars in millions)	As Reported			Adjustments *			As Adjusted

Cash consideration	$	4,478		$	(23	)(a)	$	4,455
Fair value of assets acquired:
Cash and cash equivalents		958			-			958
Investment securities		1,294			-			1,294
Personal loans		8,801			(6	)(b)		8,795
Intangibles		555			3	(c)		558
Other assets		247			(3	)(d)		244
Fair value of liabilities assumed:
Long-term debt		(7,725	)		-			(7,725	)
Unearned premium, insurance policy and claims reserves		(936	)		-			(936	)
Other liabilities		(156	)		1	(e)		(155	)
Goodwill	$	1,440					$	1,422

*	During 2016, we recorded the following adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill as new information, which existed as of the acquisition date, became available:

(a)	Represents a subsequent cash payment from Citigroup as a result of reaching final agreement on certain purchase accounting adjustments.

(b)	Represents the net impact of an increase to the discount of purchased credit impaired finance receivables of $64 million and an increase to the premium on finance receivables purchased as performing receivables of $58 million as a result of revisions to the receivables valuation during the measurement period.

(c)	Represents an increase in acquired intangibles related to customer loan applications in process at the acquisition date.

(d)	Represents a decrease in valuation of acquired software asset.

(e)	Represents the settlement of a payable to Citigroup during the measurement period.

Of the adjusted $8.8 billion of acquired personal loans included in the table above, $8.1 billion relates to finance receivables determined not to be credit impaired at acquisition. Contractually required principal and interest of these non-credit impaired personal loans was $11.6 billion at the date of acquisition, of which $2.2 billion is not expected to be collected, primarily due to forgone interest as a result of prepayments and defaults.

The goodwill recognized from the OneMain Acquisition is reported in our Consumer and Insurance segment. We did not record any impairments to goodwill during 2016 and 2015. See Note 9 for the reconciliations of the carrying amounts of goodwill at the beginning and end of 2016 and 2015.

The following unaudited pro forma information presents the combined results of operations of Springleaf and OneMain as if the OneMain Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2014. The unaudited pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have been achieved had the OneMain Acquisition occurred on January 1, 2014. In addition, the unaudited pro forma financial information does not purport to project the future operating results of the combined company following the OneMain Acquisition.

The unaudited pro forma information also reflects adjustments for the Lendmark Sale (as defined below), as if the Lendmark Sale had been consummated on January 1, 2015. In addition, the pro forma interest income assumes the adjustment of historical finance charges for estimated impacts of accounting for credit impaired loans. The unaudited pro forma financial information does not give effect to the SpringCastle Interests Sale, the August 2016 Real Estate Loan Sale, or the December 2016 Real Estate Loan Sale (all of which are defined below).

The following table presents the unaudited pro forma financial information:

(dollars in millions)
Years Ended December 31,	2015			2014

Interest income	$	3,237		$	3,124
Net income (loss) attributable to OneMain Holdings, Inc.		(110	)		103

As of December 31, 2016, we had incurred approximately $170 million of acquisition-related transaction and integration expenses ($108 million incurred during 2016) in connection with the OneMain Acquisition and the Lendmark Sale (as defined below), which we report as a component of operating expenses. These expenses primarily include transaction costs, technology termination and certain compensation and benefit related costs.

In connection with the closing of the OneMain Acquisition, on November 13, 2015, OMH and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an Asset Preservation Stipulation and Order and agreed to a Proposed Final Judgment (collectively, the “Settlement Agreement”) with the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”), as well as the state attorneys general for Colorado, Idaho, Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia, Washington and West Virginia. The Settlement Agreement resolved the inquiries of the DOJ and such attorneys general with respect to the OneMain Acquisition and allowed OMH to proceed with the closing. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, OMH agreed to divest 127 branches of SFC subsidiaries across 11 states as a condition for approval of the OneMain Acquisition. The Settlement Agreement required certain of OMH’s subsidiaries (the “Branch Sellers”) to operate

these 127 branches as an ongoing, economically viable and competitive business until sold to the divestiture purchaser. The court overseeing the settlement appointed a third-party monitor to oversee management of the divestiture branches and ensure the Company’s compliance with the terms of the Settlement Agreement.

SPRINGCASTLE INTERESTS SALE

On March 31, 2016, SFI, SpringCastle Holdings, LLC (“SpringCastle Holdings”) and Springleaf Acquisition Corporation (“Springleaf Acquisition” and, together with SpringCastle Holdings, the “SpringCastle Sellers”), wholly owned subsidiaries of OMH, entered into a purchase agreement with certain subsidiaries of New Residential Investment Corp. (“NRZ” and such subsidiaries, the “NRZ Buyers”) and BTO Willow Holdings II, L.P. and Blackstone Family Tactical Opportunities Investment Partnership-NQ-ESC L.P. (collectively, the “Blackstone Buyers” and together with the NRZ Buyers, the “SpringCastle Buyers”). Pursuant to the purchase agreement, on March 31, 2016, SpringCastle Holdings sold its 47% limited liability company interest in each of SpringCastle America, LLC, SpringCastle Credit, LLC and SpringCastle Finance, LLC, and Springleaf Acquisition sold its 47% limited liability company interest in SpringCastle Acquisition LLC, to the SpringCastle Buyers for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $112 million (the “SpringCastle Interests Sale”). SpringCastle America, LLC, SpringCastle Credit, LLC, SpringCastle Finance, LLC and SpringCastle Acquisition LLC are collectively referred to herein as the “SpringCastle Joint Venture.”

The SpringCastle Joint Venture primarily holds subordinate ownership interests in a securitized loan portfolio (the “SpringCastle Portfolio”), which consists of unsecured loans and loans secured by subordinate residential real estate mortgages and includes both closed-end accounts and open-end lines of credit. These loans are in a liquidating status and vary in form and substance from the Company’s originated loans. At December 31, 2015, the SpringCastle Portfolio included over 232,000 of acquired loans, representing $1.7 billion in net finance receivables.

In connection with the SpringCastle Interests Sale, the SpringCastle Buyers paid $101 million of the aggregate purchase price to the SpringCastle Sellers on March 31, 2016, with the remaining $11 million paid into an escrow account on July 29, 2016. Such escrowed funds are expected to be held in escrow for a period of up to five years following March 31, 2016, and, subject to the terms of the purchase agreement and assuming certain portfolio performance requirements are satisfied, paid to the SpringCastle Sellers at the end of such five-year period. In connection with the SpringCastle Interests Sale, we recorded a net gain in other revenues at the time of sale of $167 million.

As a result of this sale, SpringCastle Acquisition and SpringCastle Holdings no longer hold any ownership interests of the SpringCastle Joint Venture. However, unless we are terminated, we will remain as servicer of the SpringCastle Portfolio under the servicing agreement for the SpringCastle Funding Trust. In addition, we deconsolidated the underlying loans of the SpringCastle Portfolio and previously issued securitized interests, which were reported in long-term debt, as we no longer were considered the primary beneficiary.

Prior to the SpringCastle Interests Sale, affiliates of the NRZ Buyers owned a 30% limited liability company interest in the SpringCastle Joint Venture, and affiliates of the Blackstone Buyers owned a 23% limited liability company interest in the SpringCastle Joint Venture (together, the “Other Members”). The Other Members are parties to the purchase agreement for purposes of certain limited indemnification obligations and post-closing expense reimbursement obligations of the SpringCastle Joint Venture to the SpringCastle Sellers.

The NRZ Buyers are subsidiaries of NRZ, which is externally managed by an affiliate of Fortress. The Initial Stockholder, which owned approximately 58% of OMH’s common stock as of March 31, 2016, the date of sale, was owned primarily by a private equity fund managed by an affiliate of Fortress. Wesley Edens, Chairman of the Board of Directors of OMH, also serves as Chairman of the Board of Directors of NRZ. Mr. Edens is also a principal of Fortress and serves as Co-Chairman of the Board of Directors of Fortress. Douglas Jacobs, a member of the Board of Directors of OMH, also serves as a member of NRZ’s Board of Directors and Fortress’ Board of Directors.

The purchase agreement included customary representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities. We did not record a sales recourse obligation related to the SpringCastle Interests Sale.

SFC’S OFFERING OF 8.25% SENIOR NOTES

On April 11, 2016, SFC issued $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 8.25% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “8.25% SFC Notes”) under an Indenture dated as of December 3, 2014 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of December 3, 2014 (the “First Supplemental Indenture”) and a Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of April 11, 2016 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture” and, collectively with the Base Indenture and the First Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), pursuant to which OMH provided a guarantee of the notes on an unsecured basis.

SFC used a portion of the proceeds from the offering to repurchase approximately $600 million aggregate principal amount of its existing senior notes that mature in 2017, at a premium to principal amount from certain beneficial owners, and certain of those beneficial owners purchased new SFC senior notes in the offering. SFC intends to use the remaining net proceeds for general corporate purposes, which may include further debt repurchases and repayments.

The notes are SFC’s senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment to all of SFC’s other existing and future unsubordinated indebtedness from time to time outstanding. The notes are effectively subordinated to all of SFC’s secured obligations to the extent of the value of the assets securing such obligations and structurally subordinated to any existing and future obligations of SFC’s subsidiaries with respect to claims against the assets of such subsidiaries.

The notes may be redeemed at any time and from time to time, at the option of SFC, in whole or in part at a “make-whole” redemption price specified in the Indenture. The notes will not have the benefit of any sinking fund.

The Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, (i) limit SFC’s ability to create liens on assets and (ii) restrict SFC’s ability to consolidate, merge or sell its assets. The Indenture also provides for events of default which, if any of them were to occur, would permit or require the principal of and accrued interest on the notes to become, or to be declared, due and payable.

LENDMARK SALE

On November 12, 2015, OMH and the Branch Sellers entered into a purchase and sale agreement with Lendmark Financial Services, LLC (“Lendmark”) to sell 127 Springleaf branches and, subject to certain exclusions, the associated personal loans issued to customers of such branches, fixed non-information technology assets and certain other tangible personal property located in such branches to Lendmark (the “Lendmark Sale”) for a purchase price equal to the sum of (i) the aggregate unpaid balance as of closing of the purchased loans multiplied by 103%, plus (ii) for each interest-bearing purchased loan, an amount equal to all unpaid interest that had accrued on the unpaid balance at the applicable note rate from the most recent interest payment date through the closing, plus (iii) the sum of all prepaid charges and fees and security deposits of the Branch Sellers to the extent arising under the purchased contracts as reflected on the books and records of the Branch Sellers as of closing, subject to certain limitations if the purchase price would exceed $695 million and Lendmark would be unable to obtain financing on certain specified terms. In anticipation of the sale of these branches, SFC transferred $608 million of personal loans from held for investment to held for sale on September 30, 2015.

Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, we were required to dispose of the branches to be sold in connection with the Lendmark Sale within 120 days following November 13, 2015, subject to such extensions as the DOJ may approve. As we did not believe we would be able to consummate the Lendmark Sale prior to April 1, 2016, we requested two extensions of the closing deadline set forth in the Settlement Agreement. The DOJ granted our requests through May 13, 2016.

On May 2, 2016, we completed the Lendmark Sale for an aggregate cash purchase price of $624 million. Such sale was effective as of April 30, 2016, and included the sale to Lendmark of personal loans with an unpaid principal balance (“UPB”) as of March 31, 2016 of $600 million. We have entered into a transition services agreement with Lendmark dated as of May 2, 2016 (the “Transition Services Agreement”), and our activities will remain subject to the oversight of the Monitoring Trustee appointed by the court pursuant to the Settlement Agreement until the expiration of the Transition Services Agreement. The Transition Services Agreement is currently scheduled to expire on May 1, 2017. Although we continue to take such steps as we believe are necessary to comply with the terms of the Settlement Agreement, no assurance can be given that we will not incur fines or penalties associated with our activities pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement or our efforts to comply with the terms of the Settlement Agreement.

REAL ESTATE LOAN SALES

August 2016 Real Estate Loan Sale

On August 3, 2016, SFC and certain of its subsidiaries sold a portfolio of second lien mortgage loans for aggregate cash proceeds of $246 million (the “August 2016 Real Estate Loan Sale”). In connection with this sale, we recorded a net loss in other revenues at the time of sale of $4 million. Unless we are terminated or we resign as servicer, we will continue to service the loans included in this sale pursuant to a servicing agreement. The purchase and sale agreement and the servicing agreement include customary representations and warranties and indemnification provisions.

December 2016 Real Estate Loan Sale

On December 19, 2016, SFC and certain of its subsidiaries sold a portfolio of first and second lien mortgage loans for aggregate cash proceeds of $58 million (the “December 2016 Real Estate Loan Sale”). In connection with this sale, we recorded a net loss in other revenues at the time of sale of less than $1 million.
