(the “Registrant”) for the purpose of registering an additional 1,322,024 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Registrant (the “Common Stock”) that have become available for issuance pursuant to the PennyMac Financial Services, Inc. 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”). These shares are securities of the same class as other securities for which an original registration statement on Form S-8 was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 30, 2013 (File No. 333-188929) and a Post-Effective Amendment to such registration statement was filed on November 1, 2018 (File No. 333-188929) (together with such registration statement, the “Initial S-8”). The Registrant registered an additional 3,966,072 shares of its Common Stock issuable under the 2013 Plan pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-8 filed with the SEC on September 13, 2016 (File No. 333-213602) and a Post-Effective Amendment to such registration statement filed on November 1, 2018 (File No. 333-213602) (together with such registration statement, the “2016 S-8”), an additional 1,322,024 shares of its Common Stock issuable under the 2013 Plan pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-8 filed with the SEC on May 31, 2017 (File No. 333-218388) and a Post-Effective Amendment to such registration statement filed on November 1, 2018 (File No. 333-218388) (together with such registration statement, the “2017 S-8”), an additional 3,322,024 shares of its Common Stock issuable under the 2013 Plan pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-8 filed with the SEC on June 12, 2018 (File No. 333-225582) and a Post-Effective Amendment to such registration statement filed on November 1, 2018 (File No. 333-225582), and an additional 1,322,024 shares of its Common Stock issuable under the 2013 Plan pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-8 filed with the SEC on June 12, 2019 (File No. 333-232081) (the “2019 S-8,” and together with the Initial S-8, the 2016 S-8, the 2017 S-8, and the 2018 S-8 the “Prior Registration Statements”).

The shares of the Registrant’s Common Stock available for grant and issuance under the 2013 Plan are subject to an annual “evergreen” provision that automatically increases on the first day of each calendar year the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the 2013 Plan by an amount equal to the least of (i) 1.75% of outstanding Common Stock on a fully diluted basis as of the end of the immediately preceding calendar year, (ii) 1,322,024 shares, and (iii) any lower amount determined by the Registrant’s board of directors (the “Annual Increase”). As of January 1, 2020 pursuant to the Annual Increase, the number of shares of the Registrant’s Common Stock available for grant and issuance under the 2013 Plan increased by 1,322,024 shares.
