On April 20, 2017, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau announced that it was suing Ocwen,
reporting that the Company had generated errors in borrowers' accounts, failed to credit payments, illegally foreclosed on
homeowners, and charged borrowers for add-on products without their consent. In addition, authorities in Florida, North Carolina, and at least 18 other states have issued
cease-and-desist orders against Ocwen to address mishandling of consumer escrow accounts and a deficient financial condition,
specifically prohibiting the Company from acquiring new mortgage servicing rights and originating mortgage loans.
On this news, Ocwen's share price has fallen as much as $3.18, or more than 58%, during intraday
trading on April 20, 2017.
