UWMC Reaffirms Commitment to Premium Proposal to Acquire Two Harbors for $12.50 Per Share in Cash with Stock ElectionJune 4, 2026 5:21 PM
Business Wire TWO Board Continues to Delay, Extending Poor Governance and Oversight UWMC Is Open to Changes or Enhancements to Its Proposal Through Open Engagement with TWO UWM Holdings Corporation (“UWMC” or the “Company”) (NYSE: UWMC), today issued an open letter to the stockholders of Two Harbors Investment Corp. (“Two Harbors” or “TWO”) (NYSE: TWO) regarding the TWO Board’s continued efforts to salvage TWO’s inferior proposed merger with CrossCountry Mortgage, LLC ("CrossCountry" or "CCM"), despite having twice held meetings that failed to secure stockholder approval for the proposed CCM transaction. Full text of the letter follows below. An Open Letter to the Stockholders of Two Harbors Investment Corp Dear Two Harbors Stockholders: Since the original date of the special meeting to vote on the inferior proposed CCM transaction, your Chairman and Board have executed consecutive adjournments, prolonging their misguided attempt to salvage an inferior CCM deal that has twice failed to garner the necessary stockholder support. You have made it clear to the TWO Board that this deal does not provide maximum value and should not be approved, but your message has fallen on deaf ears. Your Board is relying on delay tactics that it hopes will wear down stockholders into accepting a less valuable transaction, even though UWMC’s superior proposal has been and continues to be on the table. This is the opposite of a value-maximizing process for TWO stockholders. We continue to urge all TWO stockholders to stand firm against the egregious conduct of this Board, vote AGAINST the CCM transaction – in line with the recommendations of ISS, Glass Lewis, and Egan-Jones – and to continue to demand good faith engagement with UWMC. Only persistent standing fast and continued vote AGAINST can assure TWO stockholders maximization of value for their shares. UWMC remains committed to the proposal we sent to the TWO Board on May 11, under which we would acquire all outstanding TWO shares for $12.50 per share in cash, or if a shareholder chooses, 2.3328 shares of UWMC stock. In addition, despite the lack of engagement from the TWO Board, we reiterate our willingness to negotiate in good faith around a deal that best serves TWO stockholders. UWMC’s Offer Remains Clearly Superior The superiority of UWMC’s offer remains clear:      UWMC May 11 Proposal CCM’s Best and Final Proposal Cash Election $12.50 per share $12.00 per share Stock Election 2.3328 UWMC Class A shares None Shareholders Receive TWO Q2 Dividend $0.34 per share expected (based on previous dividends) $0.34 per share expected (based on previous dividends) Pro-Rated Stub Dividend Up for negotiation through open engagement Value uncertain; dependent on closure timing Opportunity for More Value Open to adjusting deal terms upon open engagement None Put simply, CCM’s best and final proposal undoubtedly falls short of the superior stockholder value to be delivered by UWMC. Meanwhile, CCM’s latest public statement calls into question its own commitment to the deal. In addition to stating that its current, inferior proposal is its “best and final offer,” CCM stated that it “will not pursue a deal at all costs; there are other strategic alternatives available.” We agree. For TWO stockholders, the other – and best – strategic alternative available is to engage with UWMC to maximize value. As noted before, the TWO Board has the ability under its agreement with CCM, and the obligation under the law, to at least determine that our offer is capable of being superior and engage with us to make sure that indeed it is – the TWO Board has been consistently reluctant to take even this basic step. UWMC is Open to Modifying Terms Through Open Engagement CCM’s proposal now appears to be set in stone, but even if it were not, TWO stockholders could never be certain that they would be achieving maximum value without open engagement with UWMC. UWMC is prepared to consider enhancements to our terms if the TWO Board is willing to engage. UWMC remains open to addressing concerns around UWMC’s proposed stock election feature, including adjustments to the default mechanism, or other structural concerns if TWO will finally listen to its stockholders and engage in good faith with UWMC. For example, UWMC is willing to consider an adjustment to its default election mechanism such that smaller stockholders who hold less than a maximum number of shares would receive whichever is the higher value between cash or UWMC shares, guaranteeing the default election will provide maximum value to smaller retail stockholders. Other enhancements can only be realized through open engagement. All it takes is making a determination that our offer could be superior and picking up the phone to call us. As such, we continue to urge all stockholders to vote and continue to vote AGAINST the CCM deal on June 11 on UWMC’s BLUE proxy card to reject the value-minimizing process of the TWO Board. How to Vote UWMC reaffirms its recommendation that TWO stockholders should vote AGAINST the proposed CCM transaction on UWMC’s BLUE proxy card and urge the TWO Board to engage with UWMC as its best path to maximize value for TWO stockholders. UWMC encourages all TWO stockholders to review its definitive proxy statement on file with the SEC for more detail about why voting AGAINST the CCM transaction helps maximize value for stockholders. We urge all TWO stockholders to VOTE AGAINST Two Harbors’ CCM Merger Proposal, AGAINST the Non-Binding Compensation Advisory Proposal and AGAINST the Adjournment Proposal according to the instructions on UWMC’s BLUE Proxy Card today to preserve the opportunity to achieve greater value by engaging with UWMC’s superior proposal.

VOTE AGAINST THE PROPOSED CCM MERGER ON THE BLUE PROXY CARD TODAY! YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT, NO MATTER HOW MANY SHARES YOU OWN! We thank you for your attention. We remain prepared to negotiate a better deal for TWO stockholders and execute a transaction that delivers superior value promptly. Sincerely, UWM HOLDINGS

UWMC Issues Statement Regarding Second Failure of Two Harbors to Obtain Approval for CCM TransactionMay 28, 2026 1:07 PM
Business Wire TWO Board Continues to Ignore Will of Stockholders and Conducts Delay Tactics Instead of Engaging with UWMC on its Offer That Provides Higher Value than CCM’s Best and Final UWM Holdings Corporation (“UWMC” or the “Company”) (NYSE: UWMC), today issued a statement regarding the second adjournment of the special meeting of the stockholders of Two Harbors Investment Corp. (“Two Harbors” or “TWO”) (NYSE: TWO) to vote on TWO’s proposed merger with CrossCountry Mortgage, LLC ("CrossCountry" or "CCM"). The statement reads as follows: “Today’s second adjournment demonstrates unequivocally that TWO stockholders understand what their Board refuses to acknowledge: engagement with UWMC is the only way that TWO stockholders can be assured of getting the best value. It should be abundantly clear by now that TWO stockholders do not want the inferior CCM transaction, which CCM has declared to be its best and final offer, nor do they want more adjournments and delays. It’s high time the TWO Board listens to their stockholders and engages in good faith negotiations with UWMC – something which the TWO Board, contrary to its assertions, has steadfastly refused to do for months. “As the TWO Board stated itself, it ‘will, consistent with its fiduciary duties, consider in good faith any actionable all-cash, fully financed proposal from UWMC.’ UWMC has made a proposal meeting all such requirements – a superior offer of $12.50 per share in cash or 2.3328 shares of UWMC stock compared to CCM’s best and final offer of $12.00 per share, with a pro-rated stub dividend – and if TWO disagrees in any respect, UWMC invites TWO to open, good faith discussions to achieve the best result for TWO stockholders. In fact, it is the TWO Board that has the power to provide certainty to its stockholders, as it can terminate the CCM transaction in accordance with its terms only after securing an alternative agreement with UWMC, following direct negotiations to maximize value for TWO stockholders. “The TWO Board and its advisors have run a failed process, put management’s interests ahead of stockholders’ and wasted stockholder capital on advisor fees and delaying tactics. In a textbook example of disfranchisement, Chairman Kasnet has adjourned the meeting despite the fact that a quorum was present and the shareholders voted against doing so. We call on the TWO Board yet again to do the right thing, engage with UWMC and work constructively towards a transaction or transactions that will get the most value for TWO stockholders. “UWMC continues to recommend that TWO stockholders vote AGAINST the inferior CCM transaction and demand that their Board engage with UWMC, as this is the only path to maximizing stockholder value.” How to Vote UWMC reaffirms its recommendation that TWO stockholders should vote AGAINST the proposed CCM transaction on UWMC’s BLUE proxy card and urge the TWO Board to engage with UWMC as its best path to maximize value for TWO stockholders. UWMC encourages all TWO stockholders to review its definitive proxy statement on file with the SEC for more detail about why voting AGAINST the CCM transaction helps maximize value for stockholders. We urge all TWO stockholders to VOTE AGAINST Two Harbors’ CCM Merger Proposal, AGAINST the Non-Binding Compensation Advisory Proposal and AGAINST the Adjournment Proposal according to the instructions on UWMC’s BLUE Proxy Card today to preserve the opportunity to achieve greater value by engaging with UWMC’s superior proposal.

UWMC Urges TWO Stockholders to Stand Firm and Vote AGAINST the CCM Transaction at May 28 Special MeetingMay 22, 2026 11:07 AM
Business Wire TWO’s Failure to Secure Vote for CCM Transaction Sends Clear Message: TWO Board Should Engage with UWMC Once and For All TWO Board’s Flawed Process Has Repeatedly Failed to Maximize Stockholder Value Even if CCM Improves its Inferior Offer, TWO Stockholders Cannot Be Sure They Are Receiving Highest Possible Value UWM Holdings Corporation (“UWMC” or the “Company”) (NYSE: UWMC), today issued a statement regarding the special meeting of the stockholders of Two Harbors Investment Corp. (“Two Harbors” or “TWO”) (NYSE: TWO) to vote on TWO’s proposed merger with CrossCountry Mortgage, LLC ("CrossCountry" or "CCM") following its adjournment to May 28, 2026. UWMC still has received no engagement from the TWO Board regarding UWMC’s proposal to acquire Two Harbors for the superior offer of $12.50 per share in cash or 2.3328 shares of UWMC stock. UWMC reaffirms its recommendation that TWO stockholders should vote AGAINST the proposed CCM transaction on UWMC’s BLUE proxy card and urge the TWO Board to engage with UWMC as its best path to maximize value for TWO stockholders. The statement reads as follows: “The clear message from TWO stockholders at the May 19 Special Meeting has fallen on deaf ears. The TWO Board did not secure stockholder approval for the CCM transaction at the meeting, yet it inexplicably still refuses to engage with UWMC. “Since December, the TWO Board has repeatedly recommended transaction terms that were later displaced by higher-value proposals generated by UWMC’s pressure. That record speaks for itself. Even if CCM now improves its offer, TWO stockholders still cannot have confidence that the Board has run a value-maximizing process unless it finally engages directly with UWMC. “Time and time again, TWO has favored a transaction with outsized cash payments to management and used stockholder money to pay high-priced advisors to try and justify it. As May 19 showed, TWO stockholders are not buying it. Nor are all three leading, independent proxy advisors, each of which has recommended a vote AGAINST the CCM transaction. A delay is not a process, and a last-minute improvement is not value maximization. “UWMC’s proposal offers more value and more optionality. Anything short of good-faith engagement with UWMC on a level playing field will not serve the best interests of TWO stockholders. UWMC urges TWO stockholders to continue making their voices heard by voting AGAINST the inferior CCM transaction on the BLUE proxy card at the rescheduled May 28 special meeting. A vote AGAINST preserves the only pathway to maximizing the value: forcing the Board to engage with UWMC.” How to Vote UWMC encourages all TWO stockholders to review its definitive proxy statement on file with the SEC for more detail about why voting AGAINST the CCM transaction helps maximize value for stockholders. We urge all TWO stockholders to VOTE AGAINST Two Harbors’ CCM Merger Proposal, AGAINST the Non-Binding Compensation Advisory Proposal and AGAINST the Adjournment Proposal according to the instructions on UWMC’s BLUE Proxy Card today to preserve the opportunity to achieve greater value by engaging with UWMC’s superior proposal.

UWM-Team@Reevemark.com Original: UWMC Urges TWO Stockholders to Stand Firm and Vote AGAINST the CCM Transaction at May 28 Special Meeting

UWMC Provides Clarity on Latest Disingenuous Announcement by Two HarborsMay 14, 2026 3:53 PM
Business Wire TWO Board Using Smoke and Mirrors to Distort Relative Value of CCM Offer The TWO Board Can Only Maximize Value by Truly Engaging with UWMC UWM Holdings Corporation (“UWMC” or the “Company”) (NYSE: UWMC), today issued a statement in response to this morning’s announcement by Two Harbors Investment Corp. (“Two Harbors” or “TWO”) (NYSE: TWO) and CrossCountry Mortgage, LLC ("CrossCountry" or "CCM"). The TWO Board has refused to engage with UWMC on its May 11 proposal to acquire Two Harbors for $12.50 per share in cash or 2.3328 shares of UWMC stock, and continues to affirm its support for getting its stockholders a lower cash value under its proposed merger with CrossCountry: “TWO’s latest calculation of value is a smoke and mirrors ploy designed to distract TWO stockholders from the inferior value being offered by the CCM transaction. TWO is adding the value of their normal $0.34 second quarter dividend to the ‘value’ of the CCM transaction without acknowledging that the same $0.34 dividend would be payable if TWO proceeded with UWMC. An apples-to-apples comparison reveals UWMC’s offer is still superior. It seems there is no limit to the lengths the TWO Board will go to protect a management-enriching deal with their preferred partner while ignoring their fiduciary duty to stockholders. TWO stockholders should not fall for this desperate, deceptive Hail Mary attempt by their Board.” “UWMC is disappointed that TWO’s Board continues to refuse to engage with UWMC, except through misleading press releases. UWMC welcomes the opportunity to engage directly with the TWO Board and their advisors to address any and all supposed concerns they have with UWMC’s proposal and to continue negotiating for the benefit of TWO shareholders. Under these circumstances, TWO shareholders should demand TWO engage with UWMC and vote AGAINST the inferior CCM transaction.” How to Vote UWMC encourages all TWO stockholders to review its definitive proxy statement on file with the SEC for more detail about why voting AGAINST the CCM transaction helps maximize value for stockholders. We urge all stockholders to VOTE AGAINST Two Harbors’ CCM Merger Proposal, AGAINST the Non-Binding Compensation Advisory Proposal and AGAINST the Adjournment Proposal according to the instructions on UWMC’s BLUE Proxy Card today to preserve the opportunity to achieve greater value by engaging with UWMC’s superior proposal. If you have already voted for TWO’s proposals relating to the Proposed CCM Merger on TWO’s proxy card, you have every right to revoke such proxy card by (i) completing, signing, dating and returning a later dated BLUE Proxy Card, (ii) voting via the Internet or by telephone by following the instructions on the enclosed BLUE Proxy Card at www.okapivote.com/TWO or toll free at (844) 343-2621, (iii) submitting written notice of the revocation to TWO’s Corporate Secretary or (iv) attending the special meeting and voting your shares online.

UWMC Calls Out Egregious Corporate Governance of TWO Board and Repeated Failure to Act in Best Interest of StockholdersMay 13, 2026 4:18 PM
Business Wire TWO Board Refuses to Acknowledge the Obvious: $12.50 is Better Than $12.00 Both Leading Independent Advisory Firms, ISS and Glass Lewis, Recommend that Two Harbors Stockholders Vote AGAINST CrossCountry Mortgage Merger ISS and Glass Lewis Analyses Underscore What UWMC Has Been Saying All Along – the TWO Board Can Only Maximize Value by Truly Engaging with UWMC UWM Holdings Corporation (“UWMC” or the “Company”) (NYSE: UWMC), today issued a statement calling out the egregious corporate governance of the Board of Directors of Two Harbors Investment Corp. (“Two Harbors” or “TWO”) (NYSE: TWO), which today announced it has rejected UWMC’s May 11 proposal to acquire Two Harbors for $12.50 per share in cash or 2.3328 shares of UWMC stock, and reaffirmed support for getting its stockholders 50 cents less per share under its proposed merger with CrossCountry Mortgage, LLC (“CrossCountry” or “CCM”), hereinafter the (“Proposed CCM Merger”): “The TWO Board’s latest announcement represents a complete and illogical distortion of the duties it owes its stockholders. Just days after failing to convince TWO stockholders that $11.30 was more than $12.00, TWO is now trying to convince them that $12.00 is better than $12.50. It is simply astounding for this Board to say with a straight face – again – that a superior cash bid from UWMC could not reasonably be expected to lead to a `Company Superior Proposal' when prior offers from UWMC directly led to price increases by CCM. This is just the latest example of the TWO Board’s egregious conduct, and it’s not surprising that their position has been roundly rejected by both ISS and Glass Lewis. “Instead of engaging, the TWO Board has concocted a series of misleading arguments to distract from the superior value that is on the table. They have also hired additional financial advisors at the expense of shareholders to provide cover for their outlandish logic to continue recommending the inferior CCM deal. We believe the only plausible explanation to recommend less for stockholders and refusing to negotiate with UWMC are the huge, accelerated management compensation packages that are part of the Proposed CCM Merger and have just been called out by Glass Lewis as `excessive.'” The arguments put forth today by the TWO Board for refusing to engage simply do not add up – and have been rejected by ISS and Glass Lewis. For example: The Ability to Elect Stock is a Feature of Our Offer, not a Flaw. The TWO Board is obfuscating the fact that under UWMC’s proposal, any TWO shareholder that wants cash can get cash. And more of it. In the words of Glass Lewis: “the May 11 UWMC proposal not only offers a higher cash consideration compared to the CCM Agreement, but it provides Two Harbors shareholders with a strategic alternative, not provided under the CCM Agreement, that allows Two Harbors investors to become part of the enlarged entity, should they wish to do so.” When in the history of financial transactions, has a free option been a negative as the TWO Board’s financial advisor would seemingly have you believe? Has it dawned on the TWO Board that at closing, the stock value could be worth more than the cash election, as it was prior for much of the time Two Harbors was under contract with UWMC and before TWO’s management commenced its actions in breach of that contract? UWMC Has the Financial Strength to Close. UWMC did not amend its financing package when it raised its proposal to $12.50 because it does not need to. It has more than enough cash to close the transaction based on its current financing and cash on hand. UWMC’s financing is “not subject to any financing condition, ratings triggers, collateral pools, borrowing-base tests, advance rate mechanics, or market-conditioned funding contingency. This argument is a red herring. But don’t take our word for it, as Glass Lewis stated; “UWMC possesses adequate cash and cash equivalents ($424 million as of March 31, 2026) and a sufficiently solid financial position…to execute its financial obligations under the May 11 UWMC Proposal…” TWO Misrepresents the Regulatory Risk. The TWO Board is speaking out of both sides of its mouth. They claim, “TWO stockholders deserve straight answers on closing certainty,” from UWMC, yet according to ISS, “during engagement with ISS (held on May 6), TWO suggested that a transaction with UWMC was unlikely to be derailed in the regulatory approval process.” The only entity not giving straight answers is the TWO Board itself. UWMC Can Close in 60 Days. We intend to close a transaction within approximately 2 months of signing an agreement, given our strong relationships with national regulators, licensure in good standing in all 50 states, and work in support of our prior agreement to acquire TWO. Our view is based on the fact that we have previously received more than 50% of state regulatory approvals before TWO terminated our agreed-upon transaction, as well as positive feedback from nearly all remaining states. We believe we will be able to expeditiously get all necessary approvals. TWO’s Golden Parachutes Are “Excessive.” UWMC is calling out the TWO Board’s compensation packages because we believe it is the only reason a board would ignore repeated, higher cash bids. And ISS and Glass Lewis agree. Both independent proxy advisors have recommended that these packages be rejected. A Reverse Break Up Fee is a Benefit. UWMC is “touting” the fee because it helps address the made-up arguments that there is a risk that a deal with UWMC can close. The fact is that TWO already has agreed to a deal with UWMC (before it chose to terminate that deal to go with CCM) and stated in its SEC filings that it believed the deal would close. It is the height of hypocrisy for TWO to suggest now that the opposite is true. UWMC continued: “TWO’s refusal to engage with UWMC is consistent with the bad-faith dealing TWO has exhibited over the last several months, including while under binding merger agreement with UWMC. Don’t forget the TWO Board’s improper conduct and decision-making cost stockholders $375 million in the Pine River settlement, well over $3.50 per share, more than double the termination fee they would have owed. The fact is that TWO could have resolved its laundry list of questions by simply picking up the phone and negotiating with UWMC, rather than complaining in a public press release. As stated previously, UWMC is open to negotiating amendments to its terms, including modifications to the cash-stock election and a potential termination fee, but it cannot do so with a Board that has buried its head in the sand.” “The decision before stockholders on May 19 is the Proposed CCM Merger. ISS and Glass Lewis recommended AGAINST the Proposed CCM Merger precisely because Two Harbors’ Board and management have abdicated their duties and refused to engage UWMC. TWO’s Board is the poster child for poor corporate governance and bad faith conduct at the expense of their stockholders. TWO stockholders should exercise their power to VOTE NO on the CrossCountry deal and preserve their opportunity to maximize value.” Glass Lewis Recommends Two Harbors Stockholders Vote AGAINST CCM Merger UWMC also announced that Glass, Lewis & Co. LLC (“Glass Lewis”), a leading independent proxy advisory firm, has recommended that TWO stockholders VOTE AGAINST the CrossCountry Mortgage (“CCM”) merger proposal at the upcoming special meeting on May 19, 2026. UWMC appreciates Glass Lewis’s independent evaluation and the recommendation to vote AGAINST the CCM merger, AGAINST the Golden Parachute Proposal and AGAINST the Proposal to Allow Adjournment of Meeting. The report provides additional validation that the Proposed CCM Merger is NOT in the best interest of TWO stockholders, and that open engagement with UWMC is the only way to maximize value. Importantly, Glass Lewis noted the following in its report: “[T]he May 11 UWMC Proposal offers comparatively similar certainty of success to the CCM Agreement, but a better, uncapped, cash alternative to Two Harbors shareholders. Further, it offers those Two Harbors shareholders who would prefer to continue retaining exposure to Two Harbors' future potential upside in the context of a merger with UWMC a possibility to do so, through the election of the May 11 Equity Option. Consequently, the May 11 UWMC Proposal appears, in aggregate, as a superior alternative proposal to the CCM Agreement as currently amended.” “[S]hareholders would be better served by rejecting the proposal, considering the existence of UWMC's May 11 proposal.” “Golden parachute payments make up approximately 25.3% of the equity premium of the merger, which shareholders may consider excessive. Although the Company may have been contractually and legally obligated to make these payments due to employment agreements, shareholders should question whether the size of these awards is the best use of Company capital, and whether executives are entering this deal with the best interests of long-term shareholders in mind, or whether this excessive personal payday has shaped their judgment.” How to Vote UWMC encourages all TWO stockholders to review its preliminary proxy statement carefully (and, when it becomes available, the definitive proxy statement) on file with the SEC for more detail about why voting AGAINST the CCM transaction helps maximize value for stockholders. We urge all stockholders to use Two Harbors’ proxy card until UWMC’s proxy card becomes available as soon as this week to VOTE AGAINST Two Harbors’ CCM Merger Proposal, AGAINST the Non-Binding Compensation Advisory Proposal and AGAINST the Adjournment Proposal to preserve the opportunity to achieve greater value by engaging with UWMC’s superior proposal. You do not have to wait for UWMC’s proxy card. You can vote AGAINST the Proposed CCM Merger today by using Two Harbors’ proxy card. Only your last submitted and received vote will count at the meeting. YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT, NO MATTER HOW MANY SHARES YOU OWN!

Business Wire Concludes TWO Board Has Not Capitalized on Competing UWMC $12.50 Bid Agrees with UWMC That Best Way for TWO Stockholders to Maximize Value is for TWO Board to Engage with UWMC Also Recommends AGAINST Golden Parachute Proposal and Proposal to Allow Adjournment of Meeting UWM Holdings Corporation (“UWMC”) (NYSE: UWMC), today announced that Institutional Shareholder Services (“ISS”), a leading independent proxy advisory firm, has recommended that stockholders of Two Harbors Investment Corp. (“Two Harbors” or “TWO”) (NYSE: TWO) VOTE AGAINST the CrossCountry Mortgage (“CCM”) merger proposal at the upcoming special meeting on May 19, 2026, reaffirming the higher value of UWMC’s $12.50 or stock upside offer for stockholders. UWMC appreciates ISS’s independent evaluation and the recommendation to vote AGAINST the CCM merger. The report underscores significant concerns surrounding the TWO Board’s process and the CCM transaction and that the transaction may deprive stockholders from achieving maximum value if not voted down by TWO stockholders at the upcoming May 19 special meeting. Importantly, ISS noted the following in its report: “Ultimately, a review of the process does not provide shareholders with reason to be fully comfortable with the [TWO] board's approach. As a case in point, the board has entered into two agreements with CCM over the past six weeks that were subsequently displaced by better offers. The board has now entered into a third agreement, which matched the competing offer made by UWMC.” “The [TWO] board has not capitalized on the competing bids from UWMC by engaging with the parties in a way that provides shareholders with assurance the best terms have been extracted. Thus, it appears that shareholders would be better off rejecting the proposed transaction at this time, as a signal to the board to engage more productively with the parties. A vote against the proposed transaction is therefore warranted.” “It is difficult to identify convincing evidence that [the CCM transaction] is now full value, or that the board even attempted to extract the best terms possible.” All of this is to say that the board's approach does not appear to be one that will facilitate full price discovery, and that shareholders would likely benefit from an approach that includes UWMC in a more direct manner. “Not only has UWMC presented a competing offer with a higher headline value, but its presence has been the catalyst for two improvements to the offer terms” ISS also recommended that stockholders vote AGAINST the Non-Binding Compensation Advisory Proposal, stating that “[s]upport for the golden parachute proposal is not warranted, given concerns around equity vesting acceleration.” Finally, ISS recommended AGAINST the Adjournment Proposal at the special meeting. UWMC’s offer brings higher value to the table, and UWMC remains confident that rejecting the CCM merger is the best path to preserving value and optionality for TWO stockholders. TWO stockholders deserve value maximization, and the best way to achieve that is to vote AGAINST the CCM $12.00 per share merger proposal. UWMC encourages all TWO stockholders to review its preliminary proxy statement and updated materials carefully (and, when it becomes available, the definitive proxy statement) on file with the SEC for more detail about why voting AGAINST the CCM transaction helps maximize value for stockholders. We urge all stockholders to use Two Harbors’ proxy card until UWMC’s proxy card becomes available as soon as this week to VOTE AGAINST Two Harbors’ CCM Merger Proposal, AGAINST the Non-Binding Compensation Advisory Proposal and AGAINST the Adjournment Proposal to preserve the opportunity to achieve greater value by engaging with UWMC’s superior proposal. You do not have to wait for UWMC’s proxy card. You can vote AGAINST the Proposed CCM Merger today by using Two Harbors’ proxy card. Only your last submitted and received vote will count at the meeting. YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT, NO MATTER HOW MANY SHARES YOU OWN!

UWMC Increases Two Harbors Acquisition Proposal to $12.50 Per Share for Stockholders that Elect to Receive CashMay 11, 2026 7:26 AM
Business Wire All Stockholders May Elect Cash if They so Choose; Clearly Superior Offer Represents Higher Value than Pending CCM Merger Urges TWO Stockholders to Vote AGAINST the CCM Proposal and Demand Engagement with UWMC Encourages TWO Stockholders to Read UWMC’s Preliminary Proxy on File with SEC UWM Holdings Corporation (“UWMC” or the “Company”) (NYSE: UWMC), announced that it will be submitting later today a revised proposal to the Board of Directors of Two Harbors Investment Corp. (“Two Harbors” or “TWO”) (NYSE: TWO) to acquire all outstanding shares of Two Harbors for $12.50 per share in cash or 2.3328 shares of UWMC stock (the “May 11 Premium Proposal”). The May 11 Premium Proposal will provide TWO stockholders with clearly superior value compared to the proposed transaction with CrossCountry Mortgage, LLC (“CrossCountry” or “CCM”) for $12.00 per share in cash (the “Proposed CCM Merger”). UWMC also issued an open letter to TWO stockholders outlining the May 11 Premium Proposal and urging stockholders to vote AGAINST the Proposed CCM Merger at the special meeting of stockholders on May 19, 2026. The full text of the letter is below: May 11, 2026 An Open Letter to the Stockholders of Two Harbors Investment Corp Dear Two Harbors Stockholders: Since our last proposal, the TWO Board first tried to convince you that $11.30 was better than $12.00, and when that tactic apparently failed, they cut another deal with CrossCountry that did the bare minimum on the headline cash figure. Your Board could have engaged with UWMC to determine if more value could be realized for TWO stockholders or if modifications could have been made to our offer to address their concerns. We would be open to considering amendments to our terms, including a potential reverse termination fee and modifications to the election mechanism, but we can only do so through open engagement. The TWO Board refused and decided instead to just reach amendments to move the minimum cash number and preserve the date of their rapidly approaching shareholder vote, scheduled for next week even though the proposed transaction will not close for months. Why won’t the TWO Board engage? We can only assume it has something to do with protecting a deal structure that ensures immediate cash payouts for Two Harbors management in the range of $35 million on the date of close instead of negotiating higher value for stockholders. Our deal structure, on the other hand, reduces overall compensation to management and defers some of the payout, allowing us to pay higher value to stockholders. The Board has a duty to maximize value for stockholders, not to choose a path that puts more in the pockets of management. This has been their pattern with UWMC all along. Despite the silence we have been met with from the TWO Board, today we will be submitting a new, revised proposal to the TWO Board that increases the cash consideration to $12.50 per share while preserving the ability to elect for the 2.3328 stock exchange ratio for those stockholders that want stock consideration. The $12.50 in cash is available for all stockholders if they so choose – it is not subject to any cap or proration. The choice between cash and stock is entirely up to you, but to receive cash you will have to make an election, and we encourage you to make the election that makes the most sense for your situation. We have an expeditious path to completion. Absent further sabotage by the TWO Board or management, we intend to close a transaction within approximately 2 months of signing an agreement, given our strong relationships with national regulators, licensure in good standing in all 50 states, and work in support of our prior agreement to acquire TWO. Had TWO’s Board negotiated with us in good faith prior to terminating the original Merger Agreement, we would have been closed by now on terms in line with what we are currently proposing. Our offer is again a clearly superior offer, providing higher value for stockholders on a cash basis, preserving optionality for equity consideration for those that prefer it, and maintaining a tight timeline to close. But you may never realize maximum value if your Board remains unwilling to negotiate. Seemingly, the only way to get them to do so is to vote No at the upcoming meeting. Why is your Board blocking a mechanism for true price discovery? UWMC HAS BEEN THE DRIVER OF VALUE FOR TWO STOCKHOLDERS If not for UWMC, the TWO Board would have sold the Company for $10.80 per share. UWMC’s additional bids of for the cash election of $11.30, $12.00 and now $12.50 per share, while preserving the stock election component were made without engagement by the TWO Board, which instead withheld detailed information from stockholders to continue recommending inferior deals and stating that they were in the best interest of stockholders. The eventual price increase by CCM demonstrates that UWMC proposals were in fact superior all along. TWO could have engaged with UWMC under the merger agreement to determine if a better deal for stockholders could be achieved or if your Board’s concerns could be addressed. Instead, the Board tried to convince stockholders as recently as May 6 that $11.30 was somehow better than $12.00. The result of the TWO Board’s repeated efforts to preserve the CCM deal is that they merely achieve the minimum value offered rather than conducting a process that truly maximizes value. TWO stockholders should not accept the same playbook with our $12.50 per share offer. The TWO Board has repeatedly taken the stance that UWMC’s offers are not reasonably likely to lead to a superior proposal. While the amendments to the CCM deal show this is nonsensical, the path forward for the Board should now be abundantly clear: The Only Way For TWO Stockholders To Maximize Value is to VOTE NO at the Special Meeting. You have the power to make the TWO Board conduct a value maximizing process and finally engage with their value driver, UWMC. Preliminary Proxy Statement and How to Vote UWMC has filed preliminary proxy statement materials in connection with its solicitation of proxies from TWO stockholders to vote AGAINST approving the Proposed CCM Merger at the special meeting scheduled for May 19, 2026. We intend to amend our proxy materials to reflect the details of our latest proposal. We encourage TWO stockholders to read UWMC’s preliminary proxy statement and updated materials carefully (and, when it becomes available, the definitive proxy statement) and vote AGAINST the Proposed CCM Merger on Two Harbors’ proxy card until UWMC’s proxy card becomes available as soon as this week. We believe the Proposed CCM Merger is NOT in the best interests of TWO’s stockholders and that the Board needs to engage with UWMC if there is any hope of maximizing value for stockholders. As such, we believe TWO’s stockholders should vote AGAINST the Proposed CCM Merger, AGAINST a non-binding advisory proposal to approve compensation to TWO’s named executive officer based on the Proposed CCM Merger, and AGAINST a proposal to approve any adjournment of the special meeting to a later date to permit further solicitation and vote of proxies in the event there are insufficient votes for, or otherwise in connection with the approval of the Proposed CCM Merger. You do not have to wait for UWMC’s proxy card. You can vote AGAINST the Proposed CCM Merger today by using Two Harbors’ proxy card. Only your last submitted and received vote will count at the meeting. In closing, UWMC’s latest proposal provides the highest value for TWO stockholders, and engagement with UWMC is the only way TWO’s Board and management team can be certain they are fulfilling their fiduciary duty to maximize value for stockholders. We respectfully ask that TWO stockholders: Read our Preliminary Proxy Statement (and when it becomes available, the definitive proxy statement) so that you can get full information on the deal the TWO Board is pushing you to accept and their refusal to engage fairly and openly with UWMC. VOTE AGAINST THE INFERIOR CCM MERGER AT THE SPECIAL MEETING ON MAY 19 USING TWO HARBORS’ PROXY CARD and send a message to the Board that you want them to engage in good faith with UWMC to achieve maximum value for stockholders, not continue to accept the minimum offer. We thank you for your attention. Sincerely, UWM HOLDINGS CORPORATION Adam Wolfe

UWM-Team@Reevemark.com Original: UWMC Increases Two Harbors Acquisition Proposal to $12.50 Per Share for Stockholders that Elect to Receive Cash

UWMC Responds to TWO Board’s Latest Failing for TWO StockholdersMay 4, 2026 4:51 PM
Business Wire Questions Board’s Basic Math After Baffling Rejection of its Superior $12.00 Acquisition Proposal TWO Board Takes Three Days to Conclude $11.30 in Cash is Better Than $12.00 Cash Option UWM Holdings Corporation (“UWMC” or the “Company”) (NYSE: UWMC), today responded to the press release issued by Two Harbors Investment Corp. (“Two Harbors” or “TWO”) (NYSE: TWO) rejecting UWMC’s $12.00 per share acquisition proposal and reaffirming the support of its Board for its $11.30 per share transaction with CrossCountry Mortgage, LLC (“CrossCountry”): “The TWO Board’s interpretation of the numbers don’t reflect the underlying math. UWMC’s fully financed $12.00 per share offer is clearly superior to $11.30 and provides a stock option on top of it, and the TWO Board is contorting itself with illogical arguments to suggest otherwise, preventing TWO stockholders from even the opportunity to receive significantly higher value. “The TWO Board’s arguments about the risks of closing a deal with UWMC are disingenuous, given that this same board already has recommended a transaction with UWMC just months ago, including by highlighting the ability to achieve necessary approvals. Further, UWMC’s financing is supported by a committed, unsecured $1.3 billion bridge facility from Mizuho Bank, Ltd. with no ratings trigger, no borrowing-base test, and no market contingency. The commitment letter contains customary market standard closing conditions, but to avoid any doubt, Mizuho has agreed to remove the customary due diligence condition that the TWO Board raised concerns about. This is more than can be said for CrossCountry’s financing, which still contains scant details even in the most recent announcement and the Board deliberately fails to provide any details about it for obvious reasons. “The actions of the TWO board are egregious and demonstrate it does not deserve TWO stockholder support for an inferior deal. TWO stockholders have one path to a superior value of $12 per share, which is to demand their board engage fairly and openly with UWMC and until then, carefully consider how to vote on the CrossCountry proposed transaction. “UWMC is assessing its options to make sure TWO stockholders are able to obtain the value they deserve.” About UWM Holdings Corporation and United Wholesale Mortgage Headquartered in Pontiac, Michigan, UWM Holdings Corporation (UWMC) is the publicly traded indirect parent of United Wholesale Mortgage, LLC (“UWM”).

UWM-Team@Reevemark.com Original: UWMC Responds to TWO Board’s Latest Failing for TWO Stockholders

UWMC Issues Open Letter to Two Harbors Stockholders Detailing New $12 Per Share OfferApril 30, 2026 9:38 PM
Business Wire

Delivers amended offer to TWO Board allowing stockholders to elect $12.00 per share in cash ($0.70 per share more, or more than 6% higher, than CrossCountry Mortgage) or 2.3328 shares of UWMC common stock with no cap or proration on the amount of cash



Urges Two Harbors stockholders to tell the TWO Board that it must exercise its fiduciary duty to maximize value for its stockholders and negotiate in good faith with UWMC



UWMC provides additional detail on its prior offer not previously disclosed by the TWO board, the amended offer delivered today and why UWMC’s new offer is so clearly superior



UWM Holdings Corporation (“UWMC”) (NYSE: UWMC), today issued an open letter to the stockholders of Two Harbors Investment Corp. (“Two Harbors”) (NYSE: TWO). The letter sets out why UWMC’s new $12 per share offer is clearly superior to Two Harbors’ proposed transaction with CrossCountry. The letter also outlines how Two Harbors’ Board and management have not been working in the best interests of their shareholders, and have instituted provisions designed to benefit themselves at the expense of Two Harbors shareholders.


Full text of the letter follows below.


April 30, 2026


An Open Letter to the Stockholders of Two Harbors Investment Corp


Dear Two Harbors Stockholders:


We are writing directly to you because we believe that you deserve to receive unfiltered information about our current and prior offers and we do not believe that the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Two Harbors Investment Corp. (“TWO” or “Two Harbors”) is telling you the full story.


On April 20, 2026 (the “April 20 Proposal”) we delivered the Board an offer that materially increased the consideration payable to TWO stockholders, offering a full cash or stock election supported by a committed unsecured $1.2 billion bridge facility from Mizuho Bank, Ltd. Rather than engaging with us on this clearly superior proposal, the Board significantly increased deal protections while only requiring CrossCountry Mortgage (“CrossCountry”) to match the cash election component of our offer. This is the definition of entrenchment. They did not negotiate on your behalf with us. Instead, they just had CrossCountry raise the bare minimum to match what is essentially the floor value of our prior offer and then made it harder for UWMC to offer you more value by agreeing to a higher termination fee with CrossCountry. As a result, we are disclosing the terms of our new, revised offer (the “April 30 Proposal”) directly to the TWO stockholders to ensure that you are fully informed. We want you to know your options.


We have today delivered to the Board a new, revised proposal that:



Increases the Cash Election From $11.30 To $12.00 Per Share While Preserving The Ability To Elect Stock — a $0.70 per share premium over the $11.30 figure announced by the Board on April 28 — while preserving the same 2.3328 stock exchange ratio for those TWO stockholders who wish to elect stock consideration. Accordingly, Two Harbors stockholders who wish to receive value certain at $12.00 per share will do so, while those who elect to receive stock consideration preserve the potential for upside. This election may be made by TWO shareholders until shortly prior to closing. There is always additional value in having optionality.



Is supported by a committed, unsecured $1.3 billion bridge facility from Mizuho Bank, Ltd., increased to reflect the higher cash offer, with no ratings trigger, no borrowing-base test, and no market contingency.



We believe that this offer is a Superior Offer and we strongly urge TWO stockholders to reach out to your Board and tell it to negotiate with UWMC to finalize a Merger Agreement with us and bring you this higher value alternative.


Our April 20 Proposal Offered Increased Value to TWO Stockholders


On April 28, 2026, the Board announced an amendment to its merger agreement with CrossCountry raising the per-share cash consideration to $11.30 and continued to recommend that you vote in favor of the CrossCountry transaction at the special meeting scheduled for May 19, 2026. This increase in price was in direct response to our April 20th Proposal. The Board’s announcement told you that it had reviewed our proposal, but it did not tell you what our April 20 Proposal actually said. We are writing to you directly so that you have the unfiltered facts.


Our April 20 Proposal offered each Two Harbors stockholder, on a share-by-share basis, with no cap, no proration, and no forced allocation, the complete choice to receive as consideration either (1) $11.30 in cash (a $0.50 premium to the $10.80 per share that CrossCountry was then offering) or 2.3328 shares of UWMC Class A common stock, the same fixed exchange ratio your Board determined superior in December 2025 when it signed an all-stock merger agreement with us at that ratio.


Our April 30 Proposal Increases the Value Offered to TWO Stockholders


Increased Cash Consideration - We have today delivered to the Board a revised proposal that increases the cash election from $11.30 to $12.00 per share, offering each Two Harbors stockholder, on a share-by-share basis, with no cap, no proration, and no forced allocation, the unfettered choice to receive as consideration either of the following:



$12.00 in cash — a $0.70 premium, or more than 6% higher than the $11.30 per share that CrossCountry is offering; or



2.3328 shares of UWMC Class A common stock — the same fixed exchange ratio your Board determined superior in December 2025 when it signed an all-stock merger agreement with us at that ratio which could possibly deliver an even greater premium for stockholders.



Increased Committed Financing. Mizuho has agreed to increase its committed unsecured bridge facility from $1.2 billion to $1.3 billion, sufficient to fund 100% of the cash election at the revised price. The terms remain unsecured and free of any financing condition.


Opportunity to Participate in Combined Company If You Want - Your Board accepted, in December 2025, an all-stock transaction at the same 2.3328 exchange ratio we are offering today — implying total per-share consideration of approximately $11.94 at the then-prevailing UWMC stock price. Since that time, UWMC stock has been impacted by short selling, arbitrage activity, global events and, in our view, the actions of your own Board. The intrinsic value of UWMC, however, has not changed; if anything, it has improved. Our 2026 results have tracked the projections we shared with your Board and your financial advisor in connection with the December agreement, and our most recent quarter, the results of which will be made public next week, was better than our expectations.


Form 8-K filing for full transparency. We will be filing a Form 8-K disclosing the precise terms of our offer and our prior offer. Stockholders should not have to rely on the Board’s characterization of our proposal — the document itself will be public.


Why We Believe Our Offer Is Superior


TWO stockholders will judge for themselves, but the comparison, in our view, is straightforward:




 






UWMC April 30 Proposal






CCM April 28 Amendment








Cash election






$12.00 per share






$11.30 per share








Stock election






2.3328 UWMC Class A shares






None








Committed financing






$1.3B committed financing from Mizuho — no contingency






MSR-backed borrowing-base facility (per scant public information), with availability at closing subject to collateral value conditions and advance rate volatility








December 2025 reference value






Same exchange ratio your Board accepted (~$11.94 implied based on UWMC’s closing price of approximately $5.12 per share on the day prior to signing)






N/A








Houlihan Lokey implied UWMC value (Dec 2025 fairness opinion)






$14.61–$19.22 per Two Harbors share at the Exchange Ratio






N/A








Closing timeline






~2–3 months from signing






Targeted Q3 2026







What the Board Did Not Tell You


In its public communications, the Board characterized our April 20 Proposal in ways that, in our view, do not fairly describe its terms and we think that it is important that you are aware of these issues in order to make informed decisions.



Our Financing Is Certain Despite Suggestions to the Contrary. Our April 20 Proposal had, and our April 30 Proposal has no financing conditions. To the contrary, both of our offers are supported by a committed, unsecured bridge facility from Mizuho Bank, Ltd. which is sufficient to pay all of the cash consideration, even if 100% of the TWO stockholders elected cash. This committed financing has no ratings trigger, no borrowing-base test, and no market contingency.



The Board Failed to Disclose That Our Offer Includes A Stock Election. Stockholders who preferred to participate in the upside of the combined company can elect to receive UWMC stock at the same fixed exchange ratio your Board itself determined superior in December 2025. CrossCountry’s all-cash transaction provides no equivalent and is therefore, by definition, less valuable to stockholders.



The Board Has Not Disclosed What Underpins CrossCountry’s Financing.


Based on publicly available information, the financing supporting the CrossCountry transaction appears to rely on an MSR-backed borrowing-base facility — a structure whose availability at closing is subject to collateral-value tests and advance-rate volatility. We believe this is materially less stable than our committed unsecured commitment from Mizuho.



In response to a direct question during Two Harbors earnings call on April 29 from the Research Division of JonesTrading Institutional Services, LLC, about the financing package supporting CrossCountry’s $11.30 cash offer, your CEO responded with the following: “Yes. Thanks for the question, and I appreciate it. As you might expect, everything that is disclosable has been disclosed in the merger agreement, which is filed publicly. So I would refer you to that document to answer some of your questions.” To the contrary, the Merger Agreement does not include any substantive details concerning CrossCountry’s financing, nor are CrossCountry’s financial statements publicly available.






The Amended CrossCountry Merger Agreement Includes a Termination Fee That Materially Hinders Your Ability To Maximize Value. To make it even harder for UWMC to offer you more value, the Board amended its agreement with CrossCountry to increase the deal protections, including nearly doubling the termination fee — from $25.4 million to $50 million — and adding additional closing conditions which seek to delay the closing – all while a superior proposal was pending. Neither the higher termination fee nor the delays in closing benefit you. Their sole purpose is to make it more expensive for UWMC to compete on your behalf. We do not believe these provisions are appropriate exercises of the Board’s fiduciary duties and urge TWO stockholders to remind the Board that their fiduciary duties are owed to them and not to management.



We believe the Company’s and Board’s actions throughout this process constitute willful breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty and other tortious conduct. Company Management and the Board appear to be acting in their own self-interest, to the detriment of the TWO stockholders, and in violation of UWMC's rights. We are actively considering litigation options.


What We Are Asking


We respectfully ask you to:



Read our Form 8-K when filed, so that you can evaluate the actual terms of our proposal rather than the Board’s characterization of it.



Tell the TWO Board that you expect them to engage in good faith with the April 30 Proposal as a Company Superior Proposal under Section 6.3 of the CrossCountry Merger Agreement.



Consider carefully how you intend to vote at the May 19 special meeting in light of the superior alternatives now available.



We thank you for your attention. We remain prepared to execute promptly and to deliver this transaction on the timeline our prior work permits.


Sincerely,


UWM HOLDINGS CORPORATION


Adam Wolfe

Secretary of the Board

UWMC Responds to Two Harbors Acquisition DealMarch 27, 2026 5:20 PM
Business Wire
UWMC today issued the following statement regarding its proposal to acquire TWO.


“The actions by TWO’s management and board do not reflect the best interests of their shareholders. The same team that had to settle a $375 million lawsuit this past summer is at it again. TWO’s decision appears to be driven more by ego, than by sound judgment. The deal for us was a strategy to acquire their servicing book, not their operations, as ultimately there are no operational efficiencies to gain — UWMs operations are best in class. Unlike TWO’s business, which is effectively a melting ice cube, we are in growth mode and will continue to be the market leader for the wholesale channel in support of our broker clients and team members.”

The forward-looking statements are intended to be subject to the safe harbor provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, included in this press release that address activities, events or developments that TWO or UWMC expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements.

However, the absence of these words does not mean that the statements are not forward-looking. Pro forma, projected and estimated numbers are used for illustrative purposes only, are not forecasts and may not reflect actual results. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. TWO’s and UWMC’s ability to predict results or the actual effect of future events, actions, plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Although TWO and UWMC believe the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, the companies can give no assurance that their expectations will be attained and therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward looking statements.


There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements included in this press release. These include, among other things: the expected timing and likelihood of completion of the proposed transaction; the ability to successfully integrate the businesses; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the proposed transaction; the potential failure to receive, on a timely basis or otherwise, the required approvals of the proposed transaction, including TWO stockholder approval, and the potential failure to satisfy the other conditions to the consummation of the proposed transaction in a timely manner or at all; risks relating to the value of the UWMC securities to be issued in the proposed transaction; risks related to disruption of management’s attention from ongoing business operations due to the proposed transaction; the risk that any announcements relating to the proposed transaction could have adverse effects on the market price of common stock of UWMC or TWO; the risk that the proposed transaction and its announcement could have an adverse effect on the ability of TWO and UWMC to retain and hire key personnel and the effect on the operating results and businesses of TWO and UWMC generally; the outcome of any legal proceedings relating to the proposed transaction, including stockholder litigation in connection with the proposed transaction; the risk that restrictions during the pendency of the proposed transaction may impact TWO’s or UWMC’s ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; that TWO or UWMC may be adversely affected by other economic, business or competitive factors; changes in future loan production; the availability of suitable investment opportunities; changes in interest rates; changes in the yield curve; changes in prepayment rates; the availability and terms of financing; general economic conditions; market conditions; conditions in the market for mortgage-related investments; legislative and regulatory changes that could adversely affect the business of TWO or UWMC. All such factors are difficult to predict and are beyond the control of TWO and UWMC, including those detailed in TWO’s annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and periodic reports on Form 8-K that are available on TWO’s website at www.twoinv.com/investors and on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov, and those detailed in UWMC’s annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and periodic reports on Form 8-K that are available on UWMC’s website at https://investors.uwm.com/ and on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.


Each of the forward-looking statements of TWO or UWMC are based on assumptions that TWO or UWMC, as applicable, believes to be reasonable but that may not prove to be accurate. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and neither TWO nor UWMC undertakes any obligation to correct or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.

Original: TWO Announces Adjournment of Special Meeting to Allow Additional Voting on Merger With UWM Holdings Corporation

UWM Holdings Corporation Issues Statement and Updates ForecastsMarch 9, 2026 10:46 PM
Business Wire
UWM Holdings Corporation (NYSE: UWMC) (“UWMC” or the “Company”), the publicly traded indirect parent of United Wholesale Mortgage (“UWM”), the #1 overall mortgage lender in America, provides an update on its forecast in advance of the upcoming stockholder meeting of Two Harbors Investment Corp. (NYSE: TWO) (“Two Harbors”). To provide greater insight into the market, UWMC is updating its outlook for first-quarter total revenue as well as additional insight into its anticipated business results for the 2026 fiscal year.


Mat Ishbia, Chairman, President, and CEO of UWM, said, “Upon further evaluation, we believe it is important to provide an update on our outlook for Q1 and for fiscal year 2026. UWM’s total loan origination volume was $49.6 billion for the fourth quarter of 2025, which represents its highest quarterly origination volume since 2021. Additionally, our core business fundamentals remain very strong. Even without the Two Harbors transaction, we now expect our total revenue for the first quarter of 2026 to be between $800 million and $900 million, and for fiscal year 2026 to be between $3.5 billion and $4.5 billion. Further, our investments in AI are now implemented and working in multiple areas to make our team members materially more efficient. As such, we remain confident in handling two to three times our current volume while avoiding the need to replace team members who depart through natural attrition. We expect Mia, our voice-enabled AI assistant, to handle over 12 million inbound and outbound calls this year, and the success of this initiative is evident from recent industry information indicating that UWM continues to originate approximately 12% of all refinances and remains the largest originator of purchase loans in the country. Lastly, we expect to demonstrate the favorable results of our investments in people and technology over the last three years, as we are ahead of pace to achieve an annualized nine figure run rate in revenue from new products and services, like TRAC+ and PA+.”


UWMC remains excited about the strategic merits and long-term value-creation potential of our proposed acquisition of Two Harbors and continues to urge Two Harbors stockholders, as the Two Harbors Board recommends, to vote in favor of the transaction at the upcoming shareholder meeting.

These forward-looking statements are generally identified using words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” and similar words indicating that these reflect our views with respect to future events.

These statements are based on management’s current expectations, but are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside of our control, and could cause future events or results to materially differ from those stated or implied in the forward-looking statements, including: (i) UWM’s ability to successfully implement strategic decisions and product launches; (ii) UWM’s dependence on macroeconomic and U.S. residential real estate market conditions, including changes in U.S. monetary policies, more specifically caused by the Presidential Administration that affect interest rates and inflation; (iii) UWM’s reliance on its warehouse and MSR facilities and the risk of a decrease in the value of the collateral underlying certain of its facilities causing an unanticipated margin call; (iv) UWM’s ability to sell loans in the secondary market; (v) UWM’s dependence on the government-sponsored entities such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac; (vi) changes in the GSEs, FHA, USDA and VA guidelines or GSE and Ginnie Mae guarantees; (vii) our ability to consummate the merger with Two Harbors and achieve the anticipated benefits; (viii) our ability to comply with all rules and regulations in connection with the launch of our internal servicing and the new risks that may be presented as a result of the transition; (ix) UWM’s dependence on Independent Mortgage Advisors to originate mortgage loans; (x) the risk that an increase in the value of the MBS UWM sells in forward markets to hedge its pipeline may result in an unanticipated margin call; (xi) UWM’s inability to continue to grow, or to effectively manage the growth of its loan origination volume; (xii) UWM’s ability to continue to attract and retain its broker relationships; (xiii) UWM’s ability to implement technological innovation, such as AI in our operations; (xiv) the occurrence of a data breach or other failure of UWM’s cybersecurity or information security systems; (xv) reliance on third-party software and services; the occurrence of data breaches or other cybersecurity failures at our third-party sub-servicer or other third-party vendors; (xvi) UWM’s ability to continue to comply with the complex state and federal laws, regulations or practices applicable to mortgage loan origination and servicing in general; and (xvii) other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission including those under “Risk Factors” therein.

Shares of UWM Holding (UWMC) declined 5.1% on Monday and slipped another 1.9% in extended trade to closed at $7.32 after the company reported lower-than-expected Q2 results. UWM Holdings engages in underwriting and providing closing documentation for residential mortgage loans. The company reported earnings of $0.07 per share in the second quarter, which missed analysts’ estimates of $0.08 per share. Markedly, Q2 results were inclusive of a $219.1 million decline in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights. Revenues of $484.7 million declined 42% year-over-year and lagged the consensus estimates of $668.3 million. The downside can be attributed to a 37% fall in loan production income during the quarter.

About to hit 10 day avg vol!

Thing is going to push.
Got the calls loaded up

I'm waiting for the bell to ring!
Thanks for now!

I know what I will buy!!!

considering the substantial buy back, shorty look very bad!

Great breakdown and analysis!

What is your estimated pt?

MUST READ: This is not my material. This is from Reddit:

Also options contracts expiring next Friday represent nearly half of the entire available float, and 90% of the volume of those contracts is unhedged, meaning this thing is a powder keg waiting to blow.

There are 83.72m shares in the float. That's small. In fact, something like 94% of the company is owned by the CEO, with those 83.72m representing the other 6%. Insiders own 12.85% of that float and institutions own 24.50%, which together is 37.35%. For those of you who never graduated from elementary school, that's 31.27m shares, which makes the free float 51.45 million shares.

Of that, 11.88m shares are short (as of 04/29) which is 23% of the free float. That's important, but not in and of itself enough to squeeze. (Addendum: It is certainly higher now than it was on 04/29, because as of TODAY there are zero shares available to short).

Options volume for 05/21 is huge - between the $7.5 and $15 strikes, there are approx. 205,500 calls, all out of the money. Their average delta is about 10% (according to Schwab), meaning that as they become ITM, 18.5m shares will be automatically bought by brokers to cover those calls. This is a gamma ramp - it will happen linearly if the stock ticks upwards, creating a positive feedback loop of rising price until they are entirely hedged. At the same time, shorts must cover if the price rises (or must they?). That means that IF the price rises significantly, nearly 30 million shares must be bought in the next 7 days to cover - that's 57% of all the shares available!

Holy Moly.

Also on Wednesday the stock experienced an extremely sudden 10% surge (when everything else was in a multi-day freefall) and it hasn't gone back down.

What is this dogg shit? Are the owners of this company compete trash, or am I missing something?


Seems like a debt hogg.

Been watching this one.. Anyone have a idea as to why its sucking towards the low?

Crossing my fingers that yesterday's intraday $7.18, a new all-time low, was the bottom. At that level, no one is making a profit. That doesn't mean it can't drop farther, but even today's closing price is mind-blowing to me.

Wow. How low is this gonna go?
