(b)           On March 26, 2013, PPM America, Inc. (“PPMA”) notified WMI Liquidating Trust (the “Trust”) that PPMA’s representatives on the Trust’s Trust Advisory Board (the “TAB”) would be resigning effective immediately.  PPMA’s representatives, Joel Klein and James Leda, also represented PPMA on the Trust’s Litigation Subcommittee (the “Litigation Subcommittee”).  The decision of PPMA’s representatives to resign was not the result of any disagreement with other members of the TAB, the Litigation Subcommittee, the Liquidating Trustee (as defined in the Trust Agreement (defined below)) or any Trust Professionals (as defined in the Trust Agreement).  Through an accommodation reached by and between PPMA and the TAB, either of Messrs. Klein and Leda was permitted to attend meetings of the TAB and the Litigation Subcommittee, as the case may be, from time to time; however, only one of them was permitted to vote on matters brought before the TAB for approval.  PPMA’s representatives were seated on the TAB in accordance with the terms of that certain WMI Liquidating Trust Agreement (the “Trust Agreement”), dated as of March 6, 2012, by and among Washington Mutual, Inc. and WMI Investment Corp., as debtors and debtors-in-possession, William C. Kosturos, as liquidating trustee, and CSC Trust Company of Delaware as the Delaware resident trustee of the WMI Liquidating Trust, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under cover of Form 8-K by Washington Mutual, Inc. on March 12, 2012, as amended by Amendment No.1 to the WMI Liquidating Trust Agreement dated as of August 1, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under cover of Form 8-K by WMI Liquidating Trust on August 7, 2012.
