Restriction on Distribution of Net Assets from Subsidiary

Note 11: Restriction on Distribution of Net Assets from Subsidiary

WMMRC has net assets totaling $37.8 million, $54.9 million and $145.8 million as of December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. These net assets are not immediately available for distribution to WMIH due to restrictions imposed by trust agreements, and the requirement that the Insurance Commissioner of the State of Hawaii must approve dividends from WMMRC. Distributions from WMMRC to WMIH are further restricted by the terms of the Runoff Notes described in Note 7: Notes Payable.
