Restriction on Distribution of Net Assets from Subsidiary | Note 11: Restriction on Distribution of Net Assets from Subsidiary WMMRC has net assets totaling $12.4 million and $13.1 million as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, 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. On July 5, 2018, the State of Hawaii Insurance Division approved a transfer of up to $11.1 million and on July 10, 2018, WMMRC declared and paid a dividend of $10.4 million to WMIH, and such funds are available for general corporate purposes. See Note 14: Subsequent Events.
