Note 12—Short-Term Borrowings

The borrowing facilities described throughout these Notes 12 and 13 contain various covenants, including financial covenants governing the Company’s net worth, debt-to-equity ratio and liquidity. Management believes that the Company was in compliance with these covenants as of December 31, 2022.

Assets Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase

The Company has multiple borrowing facilities in the form of asset sales under agreements to repurchase. These borrowing facilities are secured by loans held for sale at fair value or participation certificates backed by mortgage servicing assets. Eligible assets are sold at advance rates based on their fair values (as determined by the lender). Interest is charged at a rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). Loans and participation certificates financed under these agreements may be re-pledged by the lenders.

Fannie Mae MSR Facility

On April 28, 2021, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, PLS, PNMAC, and PFSI ISSUER TRUST - FMSR, entered into a structured finance transaction, allowing PLS to finance Fannie Mae MSRs and ESS (the “Fannie Mae MSR Facility”). In connection with the Fannie Mae MSR Facility, PLS pledges and/or sells to PFSI ISSUER TRUST - FMSR participation certificates representing beneficial interests in MSRs and ESS pursuant to the terms of a master repurchase agreement, dated as of April 28, 2021, by and between PLS, PFSI Issuer Trust - FMSR and PNMAC (the “FMSR PC Repurchase Agreement”). In return, PFSI ISSUER TRUST- FMSR has issued to PLS the Series 2021-MSRVF1 Note, dated April 28, 2021, known as the “PFSI ISSUER TRUST - FMSR Collateralized Notes, Series 2021-MSRVF1” (the “FMSR VFN”), and may, from time to time, issue to institutional investors term notes, in each case secured on a pari passu basis by the participation certificates relating to the MSRs (the “FMSR Term Notes”). The maximum principal balance of the FMSR VFN is $1 billion.

Under the FMSR PC Repurchase Agreement, PLS grants to PFSI ISSUER TRUST – FMSR a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under participation certificates representing beneficial interests in MSRs and ESS, including all of its rights and interests in any MSRs and ESS it thereafter owns or acquires. The principal amount paid by PFSI ISSUER TRUST - FMSR for the participation certificates under the FMSR PC Repurchase Agreement is based upon a percentage of the market value of the underlying MSRs (inclusive of the ESS). Upon PLS’s repurchase of the participation certificates, PLS is required to repay PFSI ISSUER TRUST - FMSR the principal amount relating thereto plus accrued interest (at a rate reflective of the current market and consistent with the weighted average note rate of the FMSR VFN and any outstanding term notes) to the date of such repurchase.

PLS also entered into a master repurchase agreement on April 28, 2021 (the “FMSR VFN Repurchase Agreement”) with Credit Cuisse First Boston Mortgage Capital LLC (“CSFB”), as administrative agent, and Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch (“CSCIB”), as purchaser, pursuant to which PLS sold the FMSR VFN to CSCIB with an agreement to repurchase such FMSR VFN at a later date. The FMSR VFN Repurchase Agreement has a term extending through May 31, 2024. The FMSR VFN Repurchase Agreement provides for a maximum purchase price of $250 million, all of which is committed.

The principal amount paid by CSCIB for the FMSR VFN is based upon a percentage of the market value of such FMSR VFN. Upon PLS’s repurchase of the FMSR VFN, PLS is required to repay CSCIB the principal amount relating thereto plus accrued interest (at a rate reflective of the current market based on a spread above SOFR to the date of such repurchase).

Ginnie Mae MSR Facility

The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries PLS, PNMAC, and the Issuer Trust, have a structured finance transaction, in which PLS pledges and/or sells to the Issuer Trust participation certificates representing beneficial interests in MSRs and ESS pursuant to the terms of the PC Repurchase Agreement (the “GNMA MSR Facility”). In return, the Issuer Trust has issued to PLS, pursuant to the terms of an indenture, the Series 2016-MSRVF1 Variable Funding Note, known as the “PNMAC GMSR ISSUER TRUST MSR Collateralized Notes, Series 2016-MSRVF1” (the “VFN”), and has issued and may, from time to time pursuant to the terms of any supplemental indenture, issue to institutional investors additional term notes, in each case secured on a pari passu basis by the participation certificates relating to the MSRs and ESS. The maximum principal balance of the VFN is $2 billion.

On July 30, 2021, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries PLS, PNMAC and the Issuer Trust, entered into agreements to syndicate existing variable funding note repurchase agreements as part of the Ginnie Mae MSR structured finance facility. The Company entered into an Amended and Restated Series 2016-MSRVF1 Master Repurchase Agreement by and among PLS, as seller, CSFB, as administrative agent to the buyers, CSCIB, as a buyer, Citibank, N.A., as a buyer, and PNMAC, as a guarantor (the “Syndicated GMSR Servicing Spread Agreement”), related to the servicing spread. The Syndicated GMSR Servicing Spread Agreement added Citibank as a syndicate buyer of MSRs and related ESS, and increased the borrowing capacity from $400 to $500 million, all of which is committed on a 50-50 pro rata basis between CSCIB and Citibank.

Ginnie Mae Servicing Advances

On April 1, 2020, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries PLS, PNMAC and the PNMAC GMSR ISSUER TRUST, issued a series of variable funding notes, the Series 2020-SPIADVF1 Notes (“GMSR Servicing Advance Notes”), to be sold under agreement to repurchase pursuant to a Master Repurchase Agreement, dated as of April 1, 2020, with Credit Suisse First Boston Mortgage Capital LLC, acting as administrative agent on behalf of Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as buyer (the “GMSR Servicing Advances Repurchase Agreement”).

The GMSR Servicing Advances Repurchase Agreement provides the Company with financing secured by servicing advance receivables to pay, in accordance with the Ginnie Mae requirements, in the event borrowers are delinquent: (i) regularly scheduled monthly principal and interest to mortgage-backed securities holders; (ii) taxes, homeowner’s insurance, and other escrowed items; and (iii) other expenses related to servicing delinquent loans as specified by (A) state and federal laws and (B) government agencies, including the FHA, the VA, and the USDA.

On July 30, 2021, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries PLS, PNMAC and the Issuer Trust, entered into agreements to syndicate existing variable funding note repurchase agreements, as part of the Ginnie Mae servicing advance facility. The Company entered into an Amended and Restated Series 2020-SPIADVF1 Master Repurchase Agreement by and among PLS, as seller, CSFB, as administrative agent to the buyers, CSCIB, as a buyer, Citibank, as a buyer, and PNMAC, as a guarantor (the “Syndicated GMSR SAR Agreement”). The Syndicated GMSR SAR Agreement added Citibank as a syndicate buyer of servicing advances receivables and provides a $600 million borrowing capacity, all of which is committed on a 50-50 pro rata basis between CSCIB and Citibank.

(2)The amount the Company is able to borrow under asset repurchase agreements is tied to the fair value of unencumbered assets eligible to secure those agreements and the Company’s ability to fund the agreements’ margin requirements relating to the assets financed. Certain of the debt financing agreements contain a condition precedent to obtaining additional funding that requires PLS to maintain positive net income for at least one of the previous two consecutive quarters.

(3)Beneficial interests in the Ginnie Mae MSRs, servicing advances and deposits are pledged to the Issuer Trust and together serve as the collateral backing the VFN, GMSR Servicing Advance Notes, and the Term Notes described in Note 13 – Long-Term Debt Notes payable secured by mortgage servicing assets. The VFN financing and the GMSR Servicing Advance Notes financing are included in Assets sold under agreements to repurchase and the Term Notes are included in Notes payable secured by mortgage servicing assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

(1)The calculation of the amount at risk includes the VFN and the Term Notes because beneficial interests in the Ginnie Mae MSRs, Fannie Mae MSRs and servicing advances are pledged to the Issuer Trust and together serve as the collateral backing the VFN and the Term Notes described in Notes payable secured by mortgage servicing assets below. The VFN financing is included in Assets sold under agreements to repurchase and the Term Notes are included in Notes payable secured by mortgage servicing assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

Mortgage Loan Participation Purchase and Sale Agreements

Certain of the borrowing facilities secured by mortgage loans held for sale are in the form of mortgage loan participation purchase and sale agreements. Participation certificates, each of which represents an undivided beneficial ownership interest in mortgage loans that have been pooled into Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae securities, are sold to a lender pending the securitization of the mortgage loans and sale of the resulting securities which generally occurs within 30 days. A commitment to sell the securities resulting from the pending securitization between the Company and a non-affiliate is also assigned to the lender at the time a participation certificate is sold.

The purchase price paid by the lender for each participation certificate is based on the trade price of the security, plus an amount of interest expected to accrue on the security to its anticipated delivery date, minus a present value adjustment, any related hedging costs and a holdback amount that is based on a percentage of the purchase price. The holdback amount is not required to be paid to the Company until the settlement of the security and its delivery to the lender.

The mortgage loan participation purchase and sale agreements are summarized below:
