Restriction on Distribution of Net Assets from Subsidiary

Note 11: Restriction on Distribution of Net Assets from Subsidiary

WMMRC has net assets totaling $32.0 million and $33.8 million as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, 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 Division 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 and Indentures described in Note 7: Notes Payable. As more fully described in Note 14: Subsequent Events, a distribution from WMMRC to WMIH of approximately $14.3 million was approved by the State of Hawaii Insurance Division on July 14, 2017.
