Financing Arrangements | Note 9: Financing Arrangements As of March 19, 2012, a Financing Agreement (the “Financing Agreement”) was entered into by and among WMIHC, each current subsidiary of WMIHC and any additional subsidiary or person who later agrees to or becomes a guarantor, the lenders from time to time party thereto (each a “Lender” and collectively, the “Lenders”), on a several and not joint basis, and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association, as administrative agent for the Lenders. The credit facility established by the Financing Agreement may be used for only certain specific purposes. The facility consists of (a) a tranche A term loan and a tranche A-1 term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $25 million and (b) a tranche B term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $100.0 million. The proceeds of (a) the tranche A term loan and tranche A-1 term loan can be used to fund working capital and for general corporate purposes of the Company, and (b) the tranche B term loan can be used to fund certain permitted acquisitions and permitted originations (as these terms are defined in the Financing Agreement) which are limited to acquisitions and originations of business in the financial services or insurance sectors. The Lenders are severally, and not jointly, obligated to extend such credit to WMIHC. The facility is secured by substantially all of WMIHC’s assets and the Lenders must have an additional first priority lien on any new business and assets acquired. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, no loans were outstanding under the Financing Agreement.
