Schedule of Potential Dilutive Common Shares

The following table summarizes shares subject to exercise or vesting conditions as more fully described in Note 9: Capital Stock and Derivative Instruments. These shares could potentially be dilutive in future periods if we realize net income attributable to common and participating stockholders and the contingent or unvested stock is converted to WMIH common stock. The cash payment of $84.4 million, which would be received upon exercise of the warrants, has not been considered as an offset to the dilutive shares under warrants outstanding below.

	Potential dilution to common
	Minimum shares		Maximum shares
Restricted shares subject to vesting		4,039,591		4,039,591
Series A Preferred Stock		10,065,629		10,065,629
Warrants outstanding		61,400,000		61,400,000
Maximum number of restricted shares to be issued if Series B conversion is below $2.25		—		1,015,874
Series B Preferred Stock		266,666,667		342,857,143
Potential dilutive shares if converted to common		342,171,887		419,378,237
