Item 1.01 Entry into Material Definitive Agreement.

Citibank, N.A. Master Repurchase Agreement Renewal

On September 9, 2022, Rocket Mortgage, LLC (the “Company”), a Michigan limited liability company and indirect subsidiary of Rocket Companies, Inc., as Seller, and Citibank, N.A. ("Citibank"), as Buyer, entered into Amendment Number Eight to the Pricing Side Letter for the Master Repurchase Agreement (the "MRA Amendment"), which extended the expiration date of the existing Master Repurchase Agreement, dated as of September 4, 2019, as amended through the date hereof, by and between Citibank, as Buyer, and the Company (the "Citi Master Repurchase Agreement"), from September 22, 2023 to September 9, 2024 and effectuated certain other technical changes to the Citi Master Repurchase Agreement. The MRA Amendment also decreased the facility amount from $2.0 billion to $1.5 billion.

Citibank, N.A. MSR Facility Amendment

On September 9, 2022, the Company, as borrower, entered into Amendment Number One to both the MSR Facility (the “MSR Amendment”) and the related side letter with Citibank, as lender. The MSR Amendment supplements the Citi Master Repurchase Agreement by increasing the sublimit of the line providing for mortgage loan servicing (“MSR”) financing from $1.0 billion to $1.5 billion. Proceeds of the borrowings under the sublimit will be used to fund servicer advances or purchases of MSRs. Borrowings under the sublimit are secured by certain government-sponsored enterprise MSRs.

The foregoing description of the MSR Amendment does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the MSR Amendment, a copy of which will be filed with the quarterly report on Form 10-Q of Rocket Companies, Inc. for the period ending September 30, 2022.

Following the execution of the MRA Amendment and MSR Amendment, as of September 9, 2022, the total funding capacity of the Company, including pursuant to all master repurchase agreements, early funding facilities, unsecured lines of credit, MSR lines of credit and early buy out facilities, was decreased to $28.85 billion. This figure compares with $29.6 billion and $33.5 billion as of June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, respectively.
