Proposals

On the ballot3

  1. 1

    CCM Merger Proposal

    ManagementBoard: AGAINST

    Approve the merger of Two Harbors Investment Corp. with CrossCountry Intermediate Holdco, LLC and related transactions under the CCM Merger Agreement.

    More detail

    The CCM Merger Proposal requests stockholder approval for the merger of Two Harbors into CrossCountry Merger Sub, as required by the CCM Merger Agreement; UWMC urges opposition, arguing that its own competing proposals offer higher cash or stock value, stronger unsecured committed financing, faster and more certain closing, and better post-closing upside. Management (UWMC, the dissident filer) contends the Two Harbors Board has not engaged in good-faith negotiations and has accepted inferior terms; ISS and Glass Lewis have recommended voting against. UWMC’s recommendation rationale emphasizes preservation of stockholders’ option to accept UWMC’s superior proposal, financing certainty through a $1.3B unsecured Mizuho facility, and the absence of caps or proration on cash elections. The UWMC filing presents detailed transactional background and financial comparisons intended to persuade shareholders that rejecting the CCM transaction will likely lead to a superior outcome.

  2. 2

    Compensation Proposal

    ManagementBoard: AGAINST

    Non-binding advisory vote to approve compensation that may be paid or become payable to Two Harbors' named executive officers in connection with the CCM Merger.

    More detail

    The Compensation Proposal is a non-binding advisory vote asking shareholders to approve compensation payable to Two Harbors’ named executive officers relating to the CCM Merger, commonly known as golden parachute payments. UWMC recommends voting against it as part of its broader campaign opposing the CCM Merger, highlighting concerns about equity vesting acceleration and misalignment with shareholders’ interests; ISS also recommended against this proposal. Voting against aims to signal opposition to management’s potential windfalls tied to the merger and to reinforce shareholder preference for the UWMC alternative.

  3. 3

    Adjournment Proposal

    ManagementBoard: AGAINST

    Approve any adjournment of the special meeting to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies if there are insufficient votes to approve the CCM Merger.

    More detail

    The Adjournment Proposal would allow postponement of the special meeting to solicit additional votes in favor of the CCM Merger if needed. UWMC urges shareholders to vote against adjournment because such delay could enable the Board and management to entrench the CCM transaction and avoid engaging with UWMC’s superior offers; rejecting adjournment preserves shareholder leverage and the immediacy of the vote, increasing the chance that shareholders can elect the UWMC alternative.
