(2) | We periodically sell Rights to MSRs and the related servicing advances to HLSS. The related advance sales generally meet the requirements for sale accounting and are derecognized from our financial statements at the time of the sale. In connection with the Ginnie Mae EBO Transactions completed during 2014, we transferred advances related to certain FHA-insured mortgage loans to HLSS Mortgage and HLSS SEZ LP in transactions which did not qualify as sales for accounting purposes. See Note 4 – Fair Value and Note 5 – Loans Held for Sale for additional information.
