Item 8.01.            Other Events

As previously disclosed in Note 25, page 36 of Ocwen Financial Corporation's Form 10-Q filed on August 4, 2010, a trial was held commencing on September 13, 2010 on the case brought by Cartel Asset Management, Inc. (Cartel) against Ocwen Loan Servicing, LLC, as the successor-in-interest for Ocwen Federal Bank FSB (the Bank), and Ocwen Financial Corporation (Ocwen), as guarantor of the Bank's obligations. The matter is not connected with Ocwen's current servicing business, but rather, involves a prior business operation where a former real estate valuation vendor alleged the misappropriation of trade secrets and contract-related claims. Ocwen was advised today that a jury returned a verdict on damages in the amount of $12.7 million in the case, which includes actual and punitive damages. The verdict does not include interest or plaintiffs legal fees which may also be payable by Ocwen. Ocwen is evaluating post-verdict legal remedies in connection with the verdict.
