Ocwen For the period from January 1, 2015 through January 16, 2015, we estimated that we generated revenue from Ocwen of $22.9 million. Services provided to Ocwen during such periods included real estate asset management and sales, residential property valuation, trustee management services, property inspection and preservation services, insurance services, mortgage charge-off collections, IT infrastructure management and software applications. We record revenue we earn from Ocwen under the terms of master services agreements and amendments thereto at rates we believe to be comparable market rates as we believe they are consistent with the fees we charge to other customers and/or fees charged by our competitors for comparable services. At times, we have used Ocwen’s contractors and/or employees to support Altisource related services. Ocwen generally billed us for these contractors and/or employees based on their fully-allocated cost. Additionally, through March 31, 2015, we purchased certain data relating to Ocwen’s servicing portfolio in connection with a Data Access and Services Agreement. Based upon our previously provided notice, the Data Access and Services Agreement was terminated effective March 31, 2015. For the period from January 1, 2015 through January 16, 2015, we estimated that we incurred $1.9 million of expenses related to these items. These amounts are reflected as a component of cost of revenue in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. We provided certain other services to Ocwen and Ocwen provided certain other services to us in connection with support services agreements. These services primarily included vendor management, corporate services and facilities related services. Billings for these services were generally based on the fully-allocated cost of providing the service based on an estimate of the time and expense of providing the service or estimates thereof. For the period from January 1, 2015 through January 16, 2015, billings to Ocwen were estimated to be $0.1 million and billings from Ocwen were estimated to be $0.3 million and are reflected as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. HLSS, RESI and AAMC For the period from January 1, 2015 through January 16, 2015, our billings to HLSS were immaterial. RESI acquires, owns and manages single-family-rental properties throughout the United States. AAMC is an asset management company that provides portfolio management and corporate governance services to investment vehicles that own real estate related assets. Its initial client is RESI. We have agreements and amendments thereto, which extend through 2027, to provide RESI with renovation management, lease management, property management, REO asset management, title insurance, settlement and valuation services. In addition, we have agreements with RESI and AAMC pursuant to which we may provide services such as finance, human resources, facilities, technology and insurance risk management. Further, we have separate agreements for certain services related to income tax matters, trademark licenses and technology products and services. For the period from January 1, 2015 through January 16, 2015, we estimated that we generated revenue from RESI of $1.0 million under these services agreements. These amounts are reflected in revenue in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. This excludes revenue from services we provided to RESI’s loans serviced by Ocwen or other loan servicers where we were retained by Ocwen or RESI’s other loan servicers. Other revenue and expenses related to AAMC and RESI for the period from January 1, 2015 through January 16, 2015 were immaterial.
