Item 1.01.

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously disclosed, on July 15, 2022, Radian Group Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Guaranty Agreement (the “Parent Guaranty”) in favor of Goldman Sachs Bank USA (“Goldman”) to guaranty the obligations of its subsidiaries Radian Mortgage Capital LLC ( “RMC”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary Radian Liberty Funding LLC (“Liberty”) in connection with a mortgage loan repurchase facility that RMC and Liberty entered into with Goldman pursuant to that certain Master Repurchase Agreement (the “MRA”), dated July 15, 2022, among Liberty, Goldman and RMC (the “Mortgage Financing Facility”). In addition to the Parent Guaranty, RMC guaranteed the obligations of Liberty under the MRA pursuant to a Guaranty and Security Agreement (the “RMC Guaranty”). The Mortgage Financing Facility is used to finance RMC’s acquisition of residential mortgage loan assets from correspondent lenders, subject to market conditions. The Mortgage Financing Facility is uncommitted, and Goldman is under no obligation to fund the purchase of any residential mortgage loan assets under this facility.

Also, as previously disclosed, on July 13, 2023, RMC, Liberty and Goldman entered into Amendment No. 1 to the MRA to extend the MRA termination date from July 14, 2023 to September 14, 2023 and to voluntarily reduce the size of the Mortgage Financing Facility from $300 million to $100 million.

On September 14, 2023, RMC, Liberty and Goldman entered into Amendment No. 2 to the MRA (the “Goldman MRA Amendment No. 2”) to extend the MRA termination date from September 14, 2023 to November 14, 2023. In all other respects the terms of the Mortgage Financing Facility, including the Parent Guaranty and the RMC Guaranty, remain unchanged.

The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Goldman MRA Amendment No. 2, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

WHEREAS, Buyer has agreed to make such requested amendments to the Master Repurchase Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the continued performance by each of Guarantor and Seller of its promises and obligations under the Master Repurchase Agreement and the other Principal Agreements, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Guarantor, Seller and Buyer hereby agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

1. Amendments to Master Repurchase Agreement. As of the Amendment Date, the Master Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

(i) The definition of “Expiration Date” is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

Expiration Date”: November 14, 2023.


2. Effectiveness of this Amendment; Conditions Precedent.

(a) The provisions of this Amendment (other than Section 1) shall be deemed to have become effective as of the Amendment Date, but such effectiveness shall be expressly conditioned upon Buyer’s receipt of:

(i) a counterpart of this Amendment executed and delivered by duly authorized signatories of each of Seller and Guarantor;

(ii) a fully executed TTL Amendment, by and among the Buyer, the Seller and the Guarantor; and

(iii) a fully executed Reaffirmation in the form attached to the TTL Amendment, dated as of the Amendment Date, executed by the Guarantor.

(ii) the conditions set forth in clause (a) immediately above.

3. Miscellaneous.

(a) Headings. The various headings of this Amendment are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Amendment or any provisions hereof.

This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts (which may be delivered electronically), each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. The words “execution,” signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in this Amendment or in any other certificate, agreement or document related to this Amendment shall include images of manually executed signatures transmitted by facsimile or other electronic format (including, without limitation, “pdf”, “tif” or “jpg”) and other electronic signatures (including, without limitation, DocuSign and AdobeSign). The use of electronic signatures and electronic records (including, without limitation, any contract or other record created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means) shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based record-keeping system to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act and any other applicable law, including, without limitation, any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act or the Uniform Commercial Code.

Each party agrees, and acknowledges that it is such party’s intent, that if such party signs this Amendment using an electronic signature, it is signing, adopting, and accepting this Amendment and that signing this Amendment using an electronic signature is the legal equivalent of having placed its handwritten signature on this Amendment on paper. Each party acknowledges that it is being provided with an electronic or paper copy of this Amendment in a usable format.

(c) Interpretation. No provision of this Amendment shall be construed against or interpreted to the disadvantage of any party hereto by any court or other governmental or judicial authority by reason of such party’s having or being deemed to have structured, drafted or dictated such provision.

(d) Complete Agreement; Conflict of Terms. This Amendment constitutes the complete agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes any prior written or oral agreements, writings, communications or understandings of the parties with respect thereto. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Amendment and any provision of the Master Repurchase Agreement, the terms and provisions of this Amendment shall govern and control.

(e) Representations and Warranties.

(i) Each of Guarantor and Seller hereby represents and warrants that it has the power and authority to execute and deliver this Amendment and perform its obligations under the Principal Agreements. Each of Guarantor and Seller hereby represents that it has taken all necessary action to authorize its execution and delivery of this Amendment and performance of the Principal Agreements.

(iii) Each of Guarantor and Seller hereby represents and warrants that this Amendment and the Master Repurchase Agreement, as modified by this Amendment, constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of each of Guarantor and Seller, enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms, subject only to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditor’s rights.

(iv) Each of Guarantor and Seller hereby represents and warrants that its execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment and its performance of the Principal Agreements (including the Master Repurchase Agreement, as modified by this Amendment), are within its limited liability company powers or corporate powers, as applicable, have been duly authorized by all necessary limited liability company action or corporate action, as applicable, and do not constitute or will not result in: (1) a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of its certificate of formation or operating agreement (or corresponding organizational documents if it is not a limited liability company); (2) a breach of any indenture, loan agreement, warehouse line of credit, repurchase agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, servicing contract or any other material contractual obligation of it; (3) a material default or an acceleration under any of the foregoing; (4) the violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree to which it or its property is subject; except, in each case, where such breach, default or violation could not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect; (5) the violation of any order, judgment, injunction or decree of any court or other agency of government binding on it; (6) require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets of Seller, Parent Guarantor or Guarantor (other than any Liens created under any of the Principal Agreements in favor of Buyer); or (7) require any approval of stockholders, members or partners or any approval or consent of any Person under any material contractual obligation, except for such approvals or consents which have been obtained on or before the Amendment Date.

Each of Guarantor and Seller hereby (i) ratifies and reaffirms all of its payment and performance obligations, contingent or otherwise, and each grant of security interests and liens in favor of Buyer and/or any other Person, under each Principal Agreement to which it is a party, (ii) agrees and acknowledges that such ratification and reaffirmation is not a condition to the continued effectiveness of such Principal Agreements and (iii) agrees that neither such ratification and reaffirmation nor Buyer’s solicitation of such ratification and reaffirmation constitutes a course of dealing giving rise to any obligation or condition requiring a similar or any other ratification or reaffirmation from Seller or Guarantor with respect to any subsequent modifications to the Master Repurchase Agreement or the other Principal Agreements. Each of the Master Repurchase Agreement and the other Principal Agreements shall remain in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and confirmed.
