Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 8, 2018, Altisource S.à r.l. (“Altisource”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Altisource Portfolio Solutions S.A. (the “Company”), entered into an omnibus amendment to master services agreement, waiver agreement, services letter and fee letter (the “Omnibus Amendment”) with Front Yard Residential Corporation (“Front Yard”).

Altisource and Front Yard are parties to that certain Master Services Agreement dated as of December 21, 2012, as amended by that certain Amendment and Waiver Agreement dated September 30, 2016 (the “Original Agreement”). Pursuant to the Original Agreement, the parties entered into that certain Services Letter dated as of December 21, 2012 (as amended, modified or supplemented, the “Services Letter”), incorporating a series of statements of work which describe the services provided by Altisource to Front Yard. Pursuant to the Original Agreement, the parties also entered into that certain Fee Letter dated as of December 21, 2012 (as amended, modified or supplemented, the “Fee Letter”), incorporating a series of fee schedules which describe the fees Front Yard is obligated to pay to Altisource in exchange for services. The Omnibus Amendment incorporates a number of changes to the Original Agreement, the Services Letter (and related statements of work), and the Fee Letter (and related fee schedules) as summarized below. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Omnibus Amendment.

The purpose of the Omnibus Amendment is to permit Front Yard to internalize certain services, which have been provided by Altisource under the terms of the Original Agreement, Services Letter and Fee Letter, in exchange for aggregate consideration to Altisource of $18 million. Upon signing the Omnibus Amendment, Front Yard paid Altisource $15 million. In addition, Front Yard will pay $3 million to Altisource upon the earlier of a Change of Control or the fifth anniversary of the effective date of the Omnibus Amendment.

Under the terms of the Omnibus Amendment, Altisource will continue to provide property management services until December 31, 2018 during the transition to Front Yard’s internal property manager. The Omnibus Amendment provides Front Yard with the option to extend the period for providing the services for up to ninety additional days beyond December 31, 2018 upon advance notice.

Altisource will be Front Yard’s exclusive provider of title insurance and escrow services for four years following the effective date of the Omnibus Amendment. In addition to continuing to provide real estate owned (“REO”), brokerage, auction and related services on any REO related to Front Yard’s remaining legacy loan portfolio, under the terms of the Omnibus Amendment, Altisource will manage the disposition of approximately 150 rental assets from Front Yard’s leased portfolio, including the referral of listings to local agents and coordinating the repair of rental properties to rent-ready condition.

Pursuant to the Omnibus Amendment, Altisource will be subject to a lock-up period with respect to the sale or transfer of the shares of common stock of Front Yard owned by Altisource (the “Shares”). During the period between the effective date of the Omnibus Amendment and December 31, 2018, Altisource will be restricted from selling any of the Shares. Following the expiration of that period, in each of the four subsequent quarters, Altisource will be permitted to transfer no more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Shares (which would be equal to 1,036,101 shares based on current holdings), provided that any Shares not sold in the applicable quarter will increase the amount that may be sold in the subsequent quarters by fifty percent (50%) of the unsold permitted amount. Thereafter, all transfer restrictions will expire and any remaining Shares will be freely transferrable. Notwithstanding these restrictions, Altisource retains the right to sell or transfer the Shares at any time: (i) where Altisource has a good faith belief that its or its affiliates’ liquidity should be increased and the sale is necessary to achieve such an increase; (ii) where the proceeds of sales will be used to finance a strategic acquisition transaction; (iii) for privately negotiated block transactions with unrelated third parties or a similar transaction; or (iv) where Front Yard is the subject of a tender offer that is reasonably likely to result in a change of control or where Front Yard undergoes a change of control.

This description of the Omnibus Amendment is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the entire Omnibus Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

The Company also issued a press release announcing the Omnibus Amendment. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

f.	Exhibit 2 of the Agreement is hereby amended to add the following new Section 3:

“SECTION 3. TERMS APPLICABLE TO THE RENOVATION SERVICES AND LEASING AND PROPERTY MANAGEMENT SERVICES. This Section 3 shall apply to the Renovation Services and Leasing and Property Management Services provided by Altisource to Residential pursuant to the Renovation SOW and the Property Management SOW, as amended by this Omnibus Amendment.

3.1 AMENDED SERVICE PERIODS FOR RENOVATION SERVICES AND PROPERTY MANAGEMENT SERVICES. The Service Period for Renovation Services provided pursuant to this Agreement, the Services Letter, the Fee Letter and the Renovation SOW shall end on December 31, 2018 (the “Renovation Services Amended Service Period”) unless terminated earlier or extended solely pursuant to this Section 3.1. The Service Period for Property Management Services provided pursuant to this Agreement, the Services Letter, the Fee Letter and the Property Management SOW shall end on December 31, 2018 (the “Property Management Services Amended Service Period”) unless terminated earlier or extended solely pursuant to this Section 3.1. So long as the Renovation SOW and the Property Management SOW, as applicable, have not been terminated prior to December 31, 2018, Residential shall have the option to extend the Renovation Services Amended Service Period, the Property Management Services Amended Service Period or both Service Periods (each, an “Amended Service

Period”) for up to an additional three (3) months by: (a) providing written notice to Altisource of its exercise of such option to extend and setting forth the number of months it desires to extend the applicable Amended Service Period (which, for clarity, shall not exceed three months), at least ninety (90) days prior to the end of each Amended Service Period (the “Option Exercise Notice”) and (b) paying to Altisource the Extension Option Amount within five (5) business days of the date of the Option Exercise Notice. The Option Exercise Notice shall set forth the applicable Service(s) for which Residential requires the extension and the number of months of the extension period. The “Extension Option Amount” means an amount equal to one hundred fifty thousand dollars ($150,000) multiplied by the total number of months of the extension period. For clarity, Altisource shall have no obligation to provide, and Residential hereby waives its rights to request and receive, any and all post-termination services as described in Section 6.5 of the Agreement with respect to the Renovation Services and the Property Management Services beyond the Amended Service Period, as may be adjusted under this Section 3.1.

3.2 RESIDENTIAL OFFERING EMPLOYMENT TO CERTAIN PERSONNEL. Residential shall be permitted to, and shall use good faith efforts to, hire certain of the Altisource personnel that currently are providing Renovation and Property Management Services to Residential (the “Subject Personnel”). The first such hire of Subject Personnel shall be made on or before October 1, 2018 (such dates, the “Permitted Transfer Dates”) and Residential shall be permitted to hire additional Subject Personnel on additional dates in 2018, provided that in all cases Residential may not hire any additional Subject Personnel at any time later than January 1, 2019 (the “Final Transfer Date”). On or prior to the Omnibus Amendment Effective Date, Altisource shall provide a job description, if available, the most recent performance rating and of the Altisource Employees available for hire under this Section 3.2 and will make available an appropriate manger to answer questions regarding the Altisource Employees. Within five (5) business days following the Omnibus Amendment Effective Date, Residential shall provide Altisource with a written proposal of the Subject Personnel to whom it desires to make employment offers and the schedule for such offers on or before October 1, 2018. On or before October 15, 2018, Residential shall provide Altisource with a written proposal of the Subject Personnel to whom it desires to make employment offers after October 1, 2018 and the schedule for such offers. The parties shall diligently discuss each such proposal and use good faith efforts to promptly agree upon the Subject Personnel and the applicable offer schedule. Residential shall provide Altisource with prompt written notice when such offers are communicated to such Subject Personnel. To the extent Residential determines in good faith that the agreed upon Subject Personnel or schedules need to be altered, Residential shall provide prompt written notice to Altisource and diligently engage with Altisource in good faith to agree upon necessary changes. In connection with all Subject Personnel hired by Residential, Residential shall assume, and shall be obligated to pay to such Subject Personnel, all amounts that would have been earned by such Subject Personnel for the remainder of the 2018 calendar year including without limitation, their base salaries, benefits and incentive compensation in amounts at least as much as they would have received pursuant to the applicable Altisource incentive compensation plan had such Subject Personnel remained employed by Altisource as of the date of payment of such compensation. Altisource shall use commercially reasonable efforts to retain the Subject Personnel during the period commencing on the Omnibus Amendment Effective Date and, in the case of each individual, ending on the earlier of (a) the date such individual is hired by Residential and (b) the Final Transfer Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, commercially reasonable efforts shall not include, nor is Altisource under any obligation to, make or provide any

increase in compensation, benefits or ancillary perks of, or pay retention bonuses or amounts to, any Subject Personnel or otherwise incur any out-of-pocket costs in connection with the attempted retention of such Subject Personnel (other than payment of salaries of the Subject Personnel as of the Omnibus Amendment Effective Date). Altisource shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Renovation Services and Leasing and Property Management Services pursuant to the Renovation SOW and Property Management SOW, respectively, taking into account the reductions in personnel and reductions of properties to which such SOWs apply, regardless of whether such reductions are caused by a transfer of employment to Residential as contemplated under this Section 3.2, subject to the provisions of Section 3.3 below. For clarity, Residential is not permitted to terminate any SOW pursuant Section 6.2.2.4 (Performance Standards) where such failure to achieve any applicable Performance Standards is caused or contributed to by Altisource’s lack or shortage of personnel to perform the Renovation Services or Leasing and Property Management Services.

3.3. RENTAL PROPERTY TRANSITION SCHEDULE. On or before August 8, 2018, Residential provided Altisource with a written Rental Property transition schedule (the “Transition Plan”) pursuant to which Residential provided time frames by which Residential would assume from Altisource all leasing and property management services for the Rental Properties that are subject to the Leasing and Property Management Services SOW (Services Letter – Schedule A-7) following the Omnibus Amendment Effective Date, thereby removing such Rental Properties at the time of transfer from coverage under the Leasing and Property Management Services SOW. Altisource shall use commercially reasonable, good faith efforts to assist Residential in meeting the Transition Plan including, without limitation, transferring physical and actual ownership of the historical data with respect to the transitioned properties on or before the time that the properties are transitioned to Residential under the Transition Plan. Residential shall use commercially reasonable, good faith efforts to conduct the Rental Property transition in accordance with the Transition Plan. To the extent Residential determines in good faith that the Transition Plan needs to be altered, including due to Altisource’s inability to transfer the historical data with respect to the properties to be transferred, Residential shall provide prompt written notice to Altisource and diligently engage with Altisource in good faith to agree upon necessary changes. Nothing in this Section shall limit, modify, be deemed to conflict with or otherwise relieve Residential’s obligations pursuant to Section 3.1.

Except as expressly agreed and undertaken by Altisource in writing, Altisource shall have no obligation to provide any Services contemplated under the Services Letter for any Retail Property except for the Retail Management and Disposition Services specified in this SOW.

4.3.2

Residential authorizes to Altisource to expend up to $[***] on any item on Residential’s behalf to mitigate any code violation without any further approval from Residential, including paying such amount as a fine, expending such amount in repair work or offering up to such amount as a seller concession to a buyer at closing. Any fine, remediation work item or a seller concession anticipated to exceed $[***] shall require Residential’s approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any fine is the result of Altisource’s failure to timely mitigate a violation for which Altisource was aware and could have reasonably cured such violation prior to accruing the fine, then Altisource shall be responsible for payment of such fine.

4.3.3

Management of Utilities and HOA. Altisource will provide utility activation and management for water, gas and electric utilities, and meet service providers where required to activate utilities for vacant property held by Residential.

Any fine, remediation work item or a seller concession anticipated to exceed $[***] to resolve an HOA matter shall require Residential’s approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any fine is the result of Altisource’s failure to timely mitigate a violation for which Altisource was aware and could have reasonably cured such violation prior to accruing the fine, then Altisource shall be responsible for payment of such fine.

4.3.4

Property Tax Mitigation. Residential authorizes Altisource to, on Residential’s behalf, pay or otherwise offer a credit to buyer at closing to cover all unpaid taxes and assessments preventing a closing in an amount equal to the lessor of (i) the actual amount of the unpaid taxes and assessments, or (ii) [***] percent ([***] %) of the [***] of such Retail Property without any further approval from Residential.

Residential agrees that the Referral Listing Agent shall be authorized to act as a dual agent or other similar capacity such that the Referral Listing Agent would have obligations to both Residential as the seller and to the buyer of any Retail Property. Residential authorizes Altisource to execute on Residential’s behalf any consents, disclosures or other documents relating to the Referral Listing Agent’s dual agent capacity in accordance with local customs and practice.

4.5.2

Listing; Registration. Altisource will require that the Referral Listing Agent list the property in the local MLS in accordance with MLS guidelines and at a set list price as specified by Residential.

4.5.6

Property Condition; Disclosures. Altisource will communicate to each Referral Listing Agent that each Residential Property has never been owner-occupied by Residential and that Residential is an institutional seller. Altisource will communicate to each Referral Agent that Residential prefers to sell each Retail Property on an “as-is, where-is” basis without any representations or warranties as to the condition of the property, improvements or appurtenances to the extent permissible under applicable laws. Residential shall provide Altisource with all information and documentation required to be disclosed by a seller of any Retail Property in the jurisdiction where each Retail Property is situated.

4.5.7

Earnest Money. Earnest money will be held by the entity designated in the PSA as providing escrow services in an amount as recommended by the Referral Listing Agent and agreed to in the PSA.

•	Front Yard will make an upfront payment of $15 million to Altisource with an additional $3 million to be paid upon the earlier of (1) five years, or (2) a Change of Control of Front Yard.


•	Altisource will continue to provide the following services to Front Yard on an exclusive basis:

•	Altisource will support the transition of property management services to Front Yard’s internal property manager until December 31, 2018, which may be extended by up to 90 days.

•

Altisource will be restricted from selling its shares in Front Yard until December 31, 2018. Thereafter, Altisource will be permitted to sell in accordance with the share disposition schedule described in the Omnibus Amendment. Notwithstanding these restrictions, Altisource is permitted to sell shares under certain circumstances, including (a) to meet liquidity requirements, (b) to finance acquisitions, (c) for block transactions, or (d) a Change of Control of Front Yard.

Altisource expects to recognize a gain from this transaction in the third quarter of 2018 and intends to use the $15 million in initial cash proceeds from this transaction to repay its senior term loan.

Additional details regarding the transaction are included in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K which was filed today with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The foregoing description does not constitute a complete summary of the terms of the transaction and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Omnibus Amendment which was filed as an exhibit to the Form 8-K.

“The sale of these property management resources to Front Yard allows Altisource to streamline its operations and focus on its buy-renovate-lease-sell business and other opportunities. This transaction creates value for Altisource shareholders through the sale of a subscale and unprofitable business line for attractive consideration,” said Chief Executive Officer William B. Shepro.

Mr. Shepro further commented, “We are pleased to have assisted Front Yard in its journey to reach its current scale. As a significant shareholder in Front Yard, we also wish the Front Yard team all the best as they continue to grow their business.”
