Use of Proceeds and Management Commentary
Management intends to use the net proceeds for the following purposes:

- Repurchase or repayment of a portion of the Issuer's 5.50% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2026.
- Other general business purposes.
The notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust. They rank as senior unsecured obligations, equal to other unsecured indebtedness but structurally junior to subsidiary liabilities.
