During the period July 1, 2014 through August 8, 2014, we completed the repurchase of 1,953,407 shares of Ocwen common stock in the open market for a total purchase price of $65.5 million.
On July 14, 2014, holders of our Preferred Shares elected to convert the remaining 62,000 shares into 1,950,296 shares of common stock. On the same date, Ocwen repurchased all 1,950,296 converted shares of common stock for $72.3 million. The Preferred Shares were originally issued to certain private equity funds managed by WL Ross & Co. LLC (the Funds) as partial consideration in the acquisition of Homeward. Mr. Wilbur L. Ross, Jr. is the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of WL Ross & Co. LLC and Invesco Private Capital, Inc. and the managing member of El Vedado, LLC, each of which directly or indirectly controls or manages the Funds. Mr. Ross has been a director of Ocwen since March 2013.
In July 2014, we transferred our servicing obligation related to residential loans with a UPB of approximately $8.1 billion to another servicer. We previously serviced these loans on behalf of Ally Bank under a subservicing contract. We earned fees of approximately $0.5 million per month in connection with this contract.
