programs that address both their ability and willingness to pay
their mortgages. Simultaneously, we are creating value for

for PennyMac as we look to jump-start and significantly grow our
business."
In addition to automating all areas of servicing, MSP offers
PennyMac industry expertise in its customer support organization,
PowerCell®; compliance with all appropriate federal
regulations; and a technology group that delivers data center and
disaster recovery services.
"PennyMac is helping to address the challenges in the mortgage
industry by bringing fresh capital to the mortgage market," said

LPS' Mortgage Processing Services division. "We expect to see
PennyMac continue to acquire distressed assets, and LPS offers the
integrated solutions that will aid PennyMac in its growth."
