The exact stock prices and effective dates may not be set forth in the table above, in which case:

 

·                  If the stock price is between two stock price amounts in the table or the date is between two dates in the table, the number of additional shares will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of additional shares set forth for the higher and lower stock price amounts and the two dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year.

 

·                  If the stock price is greater than $75.00 per share, subject to adjustment, no adjustments will be made in the conversion rate.

 

·                  If the stock price is less than $10.23 per share, subject to adjustment, no adjustments will be made in the conversion rate.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the conversion rate exceed 97.7517 per $1,000 in principal amount of Notes, subject to adjustments in the same manner as the conversion rate as set forth under “Description of the Notes — Conversion Rate Adjustments” in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement.

(1)                                  Includes $237 million of available-for-sale securities at fair value at September 30, 2011.

 

(2)                                  Represents Chesapeake Term Notes and the FLRT 2010 Notes (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement).

 

(3)                                  Amounts are net of $3 million of unamortized swap gains partially offset by $1 million of original issue discount, as of September 30, 2011.

 

(4)                                  Amounts are net of unamortized discount of $1 million as of September 30, 2011.

 

(5)                                  Amounts are net of unamortized discount of $44 million as of September 30, 2011.

 

(6)                                  Reflects the issuance of $220 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes in the Offering.  In accordance with ASC 470-20, convertible debt that may be wholly or partially settled in cash is required to be separated into a liability and an equity component, such that interest expense reflects the issuer’s non-convertible debt interest rate. Upon issuance, a debt discount will be recognized as a decrease in debt and an increase in equity. The debt component will accrete up to the principal amount over the expected term of the debt. ASC 470-20 does not affect the actual amount that PHH is required to repay, and the amount shown in the table above for the Notes is the aggregate principal amount of the Notes and does not reflect the debt discount that PHH will be required to recognize.

 

(7)                                  Mortgage Loan Securitization Debt Certificates were consolidated with securitized mortgage loans as a result of the adoption of updates to ASC 810. See Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”

As of September 30, 2011, the balance of the securitized mortgage loans was $32 million and was included in “Other Assets” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet in PHH’s 2011 Third Quarter Form 10-Q. Cash flows of the loans support payment of the debt certificates and creditors of the securitization trust do not have recourse to PHH.

 

(8)                                  Amounts representing the number of shares of common stock outstanding exclude:

 

·                  options outstanding on September 30, 2011 to purchase 1,430,467 shares of common stock, at a weighted exercise price of $18.41 per share;

 

·                  restricted stock units outstanding on September 30, 2011 which are convertible into 744,693 shares of common stock, at a weighted-average grant date fair value of $15.41 per share;

 

·                  4,656,331 shares of common stock reserved for future awards under the PHH Corporation Amended and Restated 2005 Equity and Incentive Plan;

 

·                  12,195,125 shares of common stock, net, subject to adjustment, that are issuable in connection with the 2012 Convertible Notes and certain related bond hedge and warrant transactions entered into in connection with such notes;

 

·                  9,688,050 shares of common stock, net, subject to adjustment, that are issuable in connection with PHH’s 2014 Convertible Notes and certain related bond hedge and warrant transactions entered into in connection with such notes; and

 

·                  21,505,374 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment, that are issuable in connection with the Notes in the Offering.
