Note 18 Equity

Common Stock

On September 23, 2013, Ocwen paid $157.9 million to repurchase from the holders of our Preferred Shares all 3,145,640 shares of common stock that were issued upon their election to convert 100,000 of the Preferred Shares into shares of common stock. See Note 23 – Related Party Transactions for additional information.

On October 31, 2013, we announced that our Board of Directors had authorized a share repurchase program for up to an aggregate of $500.0 million of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Repurchases may be made in open market transactions at prevailing market prices or in privately negotiated transactions. Unless we amend the share repurchase program or repurchase the full $500.0 million amount by an earlier date, the share repurchase program will continue through July 2016. No assurances can be given as to the amount of shares, if any, that we may repurchase in any given period. The repurchase of shares issued in connection with the conversion of Preferred Shares is not considered to be part of this repurchase program and, therefore, does not count against the $500.0 million aggregate value limit.
