Item 1.01.

Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

On August 9, 2017, the Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) of the board of trustees of Starwood Waypoint Homes (the “Company”) amended the award agreements (the “Amendments”) for the performance share awards (“Performance Shares”) awarded on February 2, 2017. Pursuant to the Amendments, if the Company experiences a Change of Control (as defined in the Amended Agreements, which such definition would include the recently announced merger with Invitation Homes Inc.) during year one of the three-year period of the Performance Shares, the Performance Shares shall vest based on the Company’s actual performance from the beginning of measurement period through the date of the Change of Control rather than as if “Target” levels had been achieved. All other terms of the Performance Shares, as described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 8, 2017, were unchanged.

The foregoing summary of the Amendments is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Amendments, the form of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
