Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On September 9, 2004, Impac Funding Corporation entered into an amendment to the employment agreements, originally entered into on April 1, 2003, for each of Joseph R. Tomkinson, William S. Ashmore and Richard J. Johnson (the “Employment Agreements”). Joseph R. Tomkinson is the Chief Executive Officer and a director of Impac Mortgage Holdings, Inc. (“IMH”), William S. Ashmore is the President and Chief Operating Officer and a director of IMH and Richard J. Johnson is the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of IMH. Each amendment is effective as of May 25, 2004. The amendment to each Employment Agreement changed the definitions for net income and average net worth to take into account preferred stock equity of IMH.

 

As amended, net income is, at any date of determination, determined in accordance with the then-current tax law after the deduction of dividends, whether declared or paid on any of IMH’s preferred stock equity during the period; however, before the total incentive compensation is paid to such officers, the deduction for dividends paid on IMH’s common stock equity and any net operating loss deductions arising from prior periods.

 

As amended, average net worth is, for any quarter, IMH’s accumulated net worth of $514.8 million at December 31, 2002 plus subsequent to December 31, 2002, the weighted average daily sum of the gross proceeds from any sale of IMH’s common stock equity, before deducting any underwriting discounts and commissions and other expenses; plus the average balance quarter-to-date of the retained earnings for the quarter; less the weighted average daily sum of the gross proceeds used to repurchase IMH’s stock, less the average balance quarter-to-date of the cumulative dividends declared on both IMH’s common and preferred stock equity; plus an amount equal to the prior period losses, as defined in the Employment Agreements.

Tomkinson, William Ashmore; and Richard Johnson (collectively, the “Executives”) pursuant to their respective employment agreements, the deduction for dividends paid and any net operating loss deductions arising from losses in prior periods. Upon filing IMH’s actual tax return, any variance from prior period estimates, shall be an adjustment to the then current period Incentive Compensation calculation.

 

Average Net Worth: The definition of “Average Net Worth” for any quarter is IMH’s accumulated net worth of $514,795,766 at December 31, 2002 plus subsequent to December 31, 2002, the weighted average daily sum of the gross proceeds from any sale of IMH’s equity securities, before deducting any underwriting discounts and commissions and other expenses; plus the average balance quarter-to-date on IMH’s General Ledger of the retained earnings for the quarter (general ledger account number 317500); less the weighted average daily sum of the gross proceeds used to repurchase IMH’s stock; less the average balance quarter-to-date on IMH’s General Ledger of the cumulative dividends declared (general ledger account number 317510); plus an amount equal to Prior Period Losses.
