WHEREAS, Section 6(b)(iv)(D) of the 2005 EIP provides for the grants of restricted stock units

WHEREAS, the Human Capital and Compensation Committee (the Committee) has

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Board hereby approves and adopts the First Amendment

WHEREAS, the Committee has recommended to the Board that the Board take action to increase the
compensation payable to the Companys non-employee directors;
WHEREAS, consistent with the changes to be made to the 2005 EIP by the First Amendment, the
Committee has recommended that the Board specify the portion of the non-employee director fees and
stipends that will be payable in cash and the portion of the non-employee director fees and
stipends that will be payable in restricted stock units under the 2005 EIP from and after the
Effective Date (defined below) and until the Board shall take action to modify such portions; and
WHEREAS, the Board has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company to adopt the

EXHIBIT A
FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE
PHH CORPORATION
AMENDED AND RESTATED
2005 EQUITY AND INCENTIVE PLAN
PHH CORPORATION
AMENDED AND RESTATED
2005 EQUITY AND INCENTIVE PLAN
WHEREAS, PHH Corporation, a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the
State of Maryland (the Company), maintains the PHH Corporation Amended and Restated 2005 Equity
and Incentive Plan (as amended through June 17, 2009) (the 2005 EIP); and
WHEREAS, Section 8(d)(ii) of the 2005 EIP gives the Board of Directors of the Company (the
Board) the power to amend the 2005 EIP; and
WHEREAS, the Board has approved the following amendment to the 2005 EIP effective as of August
18, 2010, to provide flexibility to the Board in determining the portion of non-employee director
fees and stipends that will be paid in the form of restricted stock units under the 2005 EIP.
NOW, THEREFORE, the 2005 EIP is amended effective as of August 18, 2010, by deleting the sixth
sentence of the existing Section 6(b)(iv)(D) and substituting therefor the following:
The number of RSUs to be credited to each Non-Employee Directors account as of each Fee
Payment Date shall be calculated by dividing (1) the amount of annual retainer fee and
committee stipends payable to such Non-Employee Director on such Fee Payment Date in the
form of RSUs, as determined by the Committee or the Board from time to time, by (2) the Fair
Market Value of a share of Stock on such date. Any change during a calendar year in the
percentage or dollar amount of annual retainer fee or committee stipends payable in the form
of RSUs shall only be applied to compensation for services performed in the calendar years
following the date of such change; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing,
such change may, in the event of any increase in such fees or stipends, be applied
prospectively to any such increase payable during the remainder of the calendar year of such
change (with the old percentage or dollar amount, as applicable, applying to the fees and
stipends that otherwise would have been paid absent such increase) in order to comply with
Section 409A of the Code and the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto.
Except as set forth herein, the 2005 EIP shall remain in full force and effect as prior to
this First Amendment.
