Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

 

Stockholder Approval of the Reorganization Transaction

 

On October 24, 2018, PennyMac Financial Services, Inc. (the “Company”) held a Special Meeting of Stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) in Westlake Village, California at which Class A and Class B common stockholders of record as of the close of business on September 7, 2018 (the “Record Date”) were entitled to vote.  The purpose of the Special Meeting was to approve the Reorganization Proposal and Adjournment Proposal, as described in the joint proxy statement and prospectus dated September 18, 2018 and furnished to stockholders for the Special Meeting.

 

As of the Record Date, approximately 25.2 million shares of Class A common stock, 45 shares of Class B common stock and 77.5 million Class A units of Private National Mortgage Acceptance Company, LLC (“PNMAC”) were outstanding.  As of the Record Date, each holder of Class A units of PNMAC, other than the Company, held one share of Class B common stock.  As of the Record Date and for the Special Meeting, each holder of Class A common stock was entitled to one vote per share of Class A common stock held by them and each holder of Class B common stock was entitled to a number of votes that was equal to the aggregate number of Class A units of PNMAC held by such holder, without regard to the number of shares of Class B common stock held by them.  At the Special Meeting, holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock voted together as a single class and the total number of eligible votes was 77,454,925, of which 70,042,403 votes, or 90.42%, were present in person or by proxy and constituted a quorum.

 

The final results for each of the matters submitted to a vote at the Special Meeting were as follows:

 

Reorganization Proposal: The proposal to adopt and approve a Contribution Agreement and Plan of Merger, as amended from time to time, that will create a new holding company above the Company and simplify its overall corporate structure was approved by stockholders (representing at least a majority of the voting power of all the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company):
