Walter Investment Management Corp.  
Performance Share Award Agreement 
Under the 2011 Omnibus Incentive Plan (Amended and Restated May 3, 2013) 

You have been selected to receive a grant of Performance Shares pursuant to the 2011 Omnibus Incentive Plan (Amended and Restated May 3, 2013) of Walter Investment Management Corp. (the “Plan”) as specified below:
Participant: _____________________________________________________________
Target Number of Performance Shares (“Target Award Opportunity”):____________
Performance Period: [DATE] TO [DATE]______________________________________
Performance Measure:____________________________________________________
THIS AGREEMENT (“Agreement”), effective [DATE], represents the grant of Performance Shares by Walter Investment Management Corp., a Maryland corporation (“Walter Investment”), to the Participant named above, pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. 
The Compensation Committee of Walter Investment’s Board of Directors (the “Committee”) determined that it is in the best interests of Walter Investment and its stockholders to grant the Performance Share award (the “Award”) provided for in this Agreement to the Participant, pursuant to the Plan and the terms of this Agreement. 
The Plan provides a complete description of the terms and conditions governing the grant of Performance Shares. If there is any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the Plan’s terms shall completely supersede and replace the conflicting terms of this Agreement. All capitalized terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan, unless specifically set forth otherwise herein. The parties hereto agree as follows:
		
	1.
	Performance Period. The Performance Period commences on [DATE], and ends on [DATE].

		
	2.
	Value of Performance Shares. Each Performance Share shall represent and have a value equal to one share of common stock of Walter Investment as detailed herein.

		
	3.
	Comparator Group. The Comparator Group to the extent relevant shall consist of each company (“Comparator Company”) that is a component of the S&P MidCap 400 Financials Index on the first day of the Performance Period in accordance with the following:

		
	A.
	Any Comparator Company of the S&P MidCap 400 Financials Index that is acquired, taken private or delisted at any time during the Performance Period will be eliminated from the Comparator Group for purposes of determining Percentile Rank, as defined herein.

		
	B.
	Any Comparator Company of the S&P MidCap 400 Financials Index that files for bankruptcy protection under the United States Bankruptcy Code during the Performance Period shall remain in the Comparator Group and shall be assigned the lowest order for purposes of determining Percentile Rank.

		
	C.
	There shall be no adjustments to the Comparator Group, other than the reasons set forth in this Section 3(a) and 3(b) herein, to account for any other changes to the S&P 400 Financials Index during the Performance Period. 

		
	4.
	Performance Measure. [Intentionally omitted.]

		
	5.
	Termination of Employment. 

		
	A.
	Due to Death or Disability. In the event the employment of the Participant with Walter Investment is terminated due to death or Disabilityprior to the end of the Performance Period, then the Participant shall be entitled to be paid an Award in full based on actual performance. Any payment of a full Award shall be made as soon as is practicable after the end of the Performance Period (but in no event later than March 15 of the year following the year in which such Performance Shares were earned and vested).

		
	B.
	Due to Retirement. In the event the employment of the Participant with Walter Investment is terminated due to  Retirement prior to the end of the Performance Period, then the Participant shall be entitled to be paid a pro rata Award. The pro rata Award shall equal the product of (x) and (y) where (x) is the number of Performance Shares the Participant would have earned based on actual performance through the end of the Performance Period and (y) is a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar months that the Participant was employed by Walter Investment during the Performance Period (with any partial month counting as a full month for this purpose) and the denominator of which is the number of months in the Performance Period. Any payment of a pro rata Award shall be made as soon as is practicable after the end of the Performance Period (but in no event later than March 15 of the year following the year in which such Performance Shares were earned and vested).

		
	C.
	For Cause. If a Participant is terminated for Cause, the Participant shall forfeit any outstanding Performance Shares (including Performance Shares that have been earned but unpaid to the Participant).

		
	D.
	For Other Reasons. If the employment of the Participant shall terminate for any reason prior to the end of the Performance Period other than the reasons set forth in this Section 5(A) through 5(C) herein, the Participant shall forfeit any unvested portion of the Performance Shares granted hereunder. However, at its complete discretion, the Committee may vest any part or all of such Performance Shares.

		
	6.
	Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control that occurs prior to the Participant’s termination of employment, the Participant shall be entitled to be paid an Award in full based on target performance. Any payment of a target Award shall be made as soon as practicable following the Change in Control but no later than sixty days after the Change in Control.

		
	7.
	Dividend Equivalents. The Participant shall receive dividend equivalents to the extent the underlying Performance Shares are earned. Dividend equivalents shall accrue during the Performance Period and shall be paid on Performance Shares that are earned at the conclusion of the Performance Period at the same time as the underlying Performance Shares are paid to the Participant.

		
	8.
	Voting Rights. Until such time as the Performance Shares are paid in Shares, the Performance Shares confer no voting rights to the Participant.

		
	9.
	Form and Timing of Payment of Performance Shares.

		
	A.
	Performance Shares earned pursuant to Paragraphs [4] or [5](A) or [5](B) of this Agreement shall be paid to the Participant in the form of Shares as soon as practicable after the end of the Performance Period but in no event later than the March 15th of the year following the year in which such Performance Shares were earned and vested irrespective of whether the Participant is employed by Walter Investment on the date of such payment.

		
	B.
	If a Participant is a “specified employee” as defined under Code Section 409A and the Participant’s Award is to be settled on account of the Participant’s separation from service (for reasons other than death) and such Award constitutes “deferred compensation” as defined under Code Section 409A, then any portion of the Participant’s Award that would otherwise be settled during the six-month period commencing on the Participant’s separation from service shall be settled as soon as practicable following the conclusion of the six-month period (or following the Participant’s death if it occurs during such six-month period). 

		
	10.
	Nontransferability. Subject to Committee discretion, Performance Shares may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Further, the Participant’s rights under the Plan and this Agreement shall be exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant or the Participant’s legal representative.

		
	11.
	Recapitalization. In the event of any change in the capitalization of Walter Investment such as a stock split or a corporate transaction such as any merger, consolidation, separation, or otherwise, the number and class of Performance Shares subject to this Agreement shall be equitably adjusted by the Committee, in its sole discretion, to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights.

		
	12.
	Beneficiary Designation. The Participant may, from time to time, name any beneficiary or beneficiaries (who may be named contingently or successively) to whom any benefit under this Agreement is to be paid in case of his or her death before he or she receives any or all of such benefit. Each such designation shall revoke all prior designations by the Participant, shall be in a form prescribed by Walter Investment, and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing with the Secretary of Walter Investment during the Participant’s lifetime. In the absence of any such designation, benefits remaining unpaid at the Participant’s death shall be paid to the Participant’s estate.

		
	13.
	Continuation of Employment. This Agreement shall not confer upon the Participant any right to continued employment with Walter Investment or its Subsidiaries, nor shall this Agreement interfere in any way with Walter Investment’s right to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time.

		
	14.
	Miscellaneous.

		
	A.
	This Agreement and the rights of the Participant hereunder are subject to all the terms and conditions of the Plan, as the same may be amended from time to time, as well as to such rules and regulations as the Committee may adopt for administration of the Plan. The

 
Committee shall have the right to impose such restrictions on any Shares acquired pursuant to this Agreement, as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, restrictions under applicable federal securities laws, under the requirements of any stock exchange or market upon which such Shares are then listed and/or traded, and under any 

blue sky or state securities laws applicable to such Shares. It is expressly understood that the Committee is authorized to administer, construe, and make all determinations necessary or appropriate to the administration of the Plan and this Agreement, all of which shall be binding upon the Participant.
		
	B.
	With the approval of the Board, the Committee may terminate, amend, or modify this Agreement; provided, however, that no such termination, amendment, or modification of this Agreement may in any way adversely affect the Participant’s rights under this Agreement without the Participant’s written consent.

		
	C.
	Walter Investment shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold from the Participant’s compensation, or require the Participant to remit to Walter Investment, an amount sufficient to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding obligation for federal, state, and local taxes (including the Participant’s FICA obligation), domestic or foreign, required by law to be withheld with respect to any payout to the Participant under this Agreement.
