Item 8.01 Other Events.

Flagstar Bancorp, Inc. issued a press release on December 18, 2013 announcing that Flagstar Bank, FSB (the "Bank") entered into an agreement to sell a substantial portion of its mortgage servicing rights ("MSRs") portfolio to Matrix Financial Services Corporation ("Matrix"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Two Harbors Investment Corp. The agreement provides for the sale of $40.7 billion in aggregate unpaid principal balance of residential MSRs, which represented 55 percent of Flagstar’s mortgage loans serviced-for-others portfolio as of September 30, 2013. Covered under the agreement are certain mortgage loans serviced for both Fannie Mae and Ginnie Mae, originated primarily after 2010. The acquisition is expected to close before the end of the year, and is subject to customary closing conditions.

A central component of this transaction is that Flagstar will act as the sub-servicer on all of the mortgage loans underlying the MSRs being sold under the agreement. As a result, Flagstar will receive sub-servicing income and retain a portion of the ancillary fees to be paid as the sub-servicer of the loans. Unless terminated earlier in accordance with its terms, the sub-servicing agreement will remain in effect so long as mortgage loans underlying the MSRs remain outstanding.

A copy of the press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
