Five Oaks Acquisition Corp. (“FOAC”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Five Oaks Investment Corp. (the “Company”), and Oaks Funding LLC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Depositor”), have entered into a Mortgage Loan Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated April 30, 2015 (the “MLPSA”), pursuant to which the Depositor has acquired prime jumbo mortgage loans totaling $267.2 million.  The Depositor sold the mortgage loans to Oaks Mortgage Trust Series 2015-1 (the “Trust” or “OMTS 2015-1”) pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated April 1, 2015 (the “PSA”), among the Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as master servicer and securities administrator, and Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, d/b/a Christiana Trust, as trustee.

The Trust issued certificates backed by the mortgage loans sold by FOAC to the Depositor (the “Certificates”).  The Depositor sold the Certificates pursuant to the CPA described below, and the Certificates were then sold to investors in a Rule 144A offering under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to a preliminary offering memorandum, dated April 22, 2015, and a final offering memorandum, dated April 28, 2015.  Barclays Capital Inc. and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC acted as initial purchasers (the “Initial Purchasers”) for the offering pursuant to a Certificate Purchase Agreement, dated April 28, 2015 (the “CPA”), among FOAC, the Depositor and the Initial Purchasers. The CPA provides that FOAC and the Depositor will indemnify the Initial Purchasers against claims, damages or liabilities relating to the offering and against certain civil liabilities under the Securities Act, or contribute to payments required to be made in respect thereof.

The Company purchased all of the subordinated Class B Certificates issued by the Trust.  The Company is not obligated to hold any of the Certificates and may sell the Certificates at any time. Additionally, FOAC retained the mortgaging servicing rights (MSRs) associated with the loans FOAC contributed.

OMTS 2015-1 represents the first securitization under FOAC’s new proprietary program for the securitization of residential mortgage loans and is expected to reduce the Company’s securitization expenses going forward, although no assurance of such can be given.

The foregoing descriptions of the MLPSA and the PSA do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such agreements. The agreements have been filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as follows:
