The following table summarizes the activity in the balance during the six months ended June 30:
| 2015 |  | 2014

(1) | At June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, the balances are net of valuation allowances of $14.7 million and $45.3 million, respectively. The decrease in the valuation allowance for the six months ended June 30, 2015 resulted principally from the reversal of $37.8 million of the allowance that was associated with loans that were sold to unrelated third parties during the six months ended June 30, 2015. This decrease was partly offset by an increase of $1.1 million in the allowance resulting from transfers from the liability for indemnification obligations for the initial valuation adjustment that we recognized on certain loans that we repurchased from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac guaranteed securitizations. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the increase in the allowance was principally the result of $13.9 million of such transfers from the liability for indemnification obligations.
(2) | At June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, the balances include $65.6 million and $44.2 million, respectively, of loans that we were required to repurchase from Ginnie Mae guaranteed securitizations as part of our servicing obligations. Repurchased loans are modified or otherwise remediated through loss mitigation activities or are reclassified to receivables.
At June 30, 2015, Loans held for sale, at lower of cost or fair value with a UPB of $48.9 million were pledged to secure a warehouse line of credit in our Servicing segment. In March 2014, we purchased delinquent FHA-insured loans with a UPB of $549.4 million out of Ginnie Mae guaranteed securitizations under the terms of a conditional repurchase option whereby as servicer we have the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase delinquent loans at par plus delinquent interest (the Ginnie Mae early buy-out (EBO) program). Immediately after their purchase, we sold the loans (the Ginnie Mae EBO Loans) and related advances to HLSS Mortgage LP for $612.3 million ($556.6 million for the Ginnie Mae EBO Loans and $55.7 million for the related servicing advances). We recognized a gain of $7.2 million on the sale of the loans. On May 1, 2014, we purchased a second group of delinquent FHA-insured loans with a UPB of $451.0 million through the Ginnie Mae EBO program for $479.6 million, including delinquent interest. On May 2, 2014, we sold the Ginnie Mae EBO Loans to an unrelated third party for $462.5 million and recognized a gain of $1.3 million, including the value assigned to the retained MSRs. Separately, we sold $20.2 million of the advances related to these loans to HLSS SEZ LP. HLSS Mortgage LP and HLSS SEZ LP are now subsidiaries of NRZ. The sales of advances to HLSS Mortgage LP and HLSS SEZ LP did not qualify for sales treatment and were accounted for as a financing. We refer to the purchase and sale of the Ginnie Mae EBO Loans and the sale of the related advances as the Ginnie Mae EBO Transactions. In March 2015, we recognized a gain of $12.9 million on sales of loans with a total UPB of $42.7 million to an unrelated third party. In May 2015, we recognized a gain of $7.2 million on sales of a second group of loans with a total UPB of $33.0 million to an unrelated third party. We had repurchased these loans under the representation and warranty provisions of our contractual obligations to the GSEs as primary servicer of the loans.
