UWM Holdings Engages Proxy Solicitor for Two Harbors Merger

What Happened UWM Holdings Corporation (UWMC) announced on March 16, 2026 that it has engaged Okapi Partners LLC to provide strategic advice and assist in soliciting proxies from Two Harbors Investment Corp. stockholders in connection with the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated December 17, 2025 (the "TWO Acquisition"). Two Harbors adjourned its special meeting of stockholders to March 24, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. to allow more time for voting; UWMC said a significant number of Two Harbors stockholders have not yet voted.

Key Details

  • Engagement: Okapi Partners LLC retained to advise and solicit proxies; UWMC will pay $25,000 now, plus additional fees and costs upon closing.
  • Indemnity: UWMC agreed to indemnify Okapi against losses or claims arising from its services.
  • Meeting adjourned: Two Harbors' special meeting reconvened March 24, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. to permit additional voting.
  • Vote requirement: The TWO Acquisition requires the affirmative vote of a majority of votes outstanding; many stockholders had not yet voted.
  • Regulatory filings: UWMC’s Registration Statement (including the proxy statement/prospectus) has been declared effective by the SEC; those documents are available on the SEC website and UWMC’s investor site.

Why It Matters This filing signals UWMC is actively working to secure shareholder approval for its proposed acquisition of Two Harbors by adding a paid proxy solicitor and extending the voting period. For investors, the key near-term item is the March 24, 2026 reconvened vote — the deal depends on a majority vote and outcomes may affect UWMC’s business plans and capital structure. Investors should review the Registration Statement, proxy statement and prospectus for full details before making any decisions.
