Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On July 18, 2014, Five Oaks Acquisition Corp. (“FOAC”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Five Oaks Investment Corp. (the “Company”), entered into that certain Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) between Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”) as lender, FOAC as borrower, for the purpose of financing the acquisition of prime jumbo residential mortgage loans, in furtherance of the Company’s previously announced strategy to aggregate and securitize such loans.

The Loan Agreement will be used by FOAC from time to time to finance the purchase of certain eligible residential mortgage loans, to be acquired by FOAC from one or more originators. The Loan Agreement provides for a short-term facility with an aggregate maximum capacity of $100,000,000 which is scheduled to mature on January 14, 2015, unless extended pursuant to its terms. FOAC’s obligations under the Loan Agreement will be secured by the mortgage loans purchased with advances made pursuant to the Loan Agreement. The Loan Agreement contains borrowing base provisions that provide Bank of America with certain rights if there has been a decline in the market value of the mortgage loans, such that Bank of America may require FOAC to repay any advance under the Loan Agreement to eliminate any borrowing base deficiency resulting from such decline. Wells Fargo Bank N.A. will act as mortgage loan custodian.

The Company also entered into a guaranty, in favor of Bank of America (the “Guaranty”), pursuant to which it guaranteed FOAC’s obligations under the Loan Agreement. The Company, as guarantor, is subject to certain financial covenants in respect of the Loan Agreement.

In addition, the Loan Agreement contains certain events of default (subject to certain materiality thresholds and cure periods), including payment defaults, breaches of covenants and/or any representations and warranties, cross-defaults, bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings and other events of default customary for this type of transaction. The remedies for such events of default are also customary for this type of transaction and include, among others, repayment of any advances and the liquidation by Bank of America of the mortgage loans held as collateral securing FOAC’s obligations under the Loan Agreement.

The Company has outstanding master repurchase agreements with Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, an affiliate of Bank of America.

The foregoing descriptions of the Repurchase Agreement and Guaranty do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Loan Agreement and Guaranty, respectively, which have been filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively.
