EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 to the Annual Report on Form 10-K of The J.G. Wentworth Company (the “Company”) for the year ended December 31, 2016, which was originally filed on March 29, 2017 (the “Original Filing”), is being filed solely to correct the reference on the cover page to the registration under Section 12 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”). The Original Filing inadvertently stated that the Class A Common Stock was registered under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, when in fact the Class A Common Stock was registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act.

Pursuant to Rule 12b-15 under the Exchange Act, this Form 10-K/A also contains new certifications pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Sarbanes-Oxley Act"), which are attached hereto. Because no financial statements have been included in this Form 10-K/A and this Form 10-K/A does not contain or amend any disclosure with respect to Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K, paragraphs 3, 4, and 5 of the certifications have been omitted and no certifications pursuant to Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act have been filed.

Except as described above, no other changes have been made to the Original Filing, and this Form 10-K/A does not modify, amend or update in any way any of the financial or other information contained in the Original Filing. This Form 10-K/A does not reflect events that may have occurred subsequent to the filing date of the Original Filing.



SIGNATURE

Pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf on December 28, 2017 by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.
