Retirement of Jon A. Boscia as a Director

 

On March 27, 2014, Mr. Jon A. Boscia notified PHH Corporation (the “Company”) of his decision to retire as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) and to not stand for re-election as a director at the Company’s 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders scheduled to be held at the Company’s offices located at 3000 Leadenhall Road, Mt. Laurel, NJ 08054 on Thursday, May 22, 2014, at 10:00 a.m., local time (the “2014 Annual Meeting”).  Mr. Boscia’s decision to retire from the Board and to not stand for re-election as a director at the 2014 Annual Meeting was not due to any disagreement with the Company or concern in respect of any matter relating to the Company’s accounting, operations, policies or practices.  Mr. Boscia’s decision was based on his inability to devote the requisite time to the Company’s Board given his other obligations.  He currently serves as President of Boardroom Advisors, LLC.
