Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 19, 2025, loanDepot.com, LLC (the “Company”), an indirect subsidiary of loanDepot, Inc., and the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary loanDepot FAMSR Master Trust (the “Issuer”) entered into the Series 2025-FT1 Indenture Supplement (the “Series 2025-FT1 Indenture Supplement”), by and among the Issuer, Citibank, N.A., as indenture trustee, calculation agent, paying agent and securities intermediary (in all such capacities, the “Indenture Trustee”), the Company, as servicer (the “Servicer”) and administrator (the “Administrator”), Nomura Corporate Funding Americas, LLC, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), related to the Base Indenture, dated as of November 14, 2025 (the “Base Indenture”), as amended by Amendment No. 1, dated as of December 19, 2025 (“Amendment No. 1 to the Base Indenture”), by and among the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer, the Administrator, and the Administrative Agent. Amendment No. 1 to the Base Indenture amends the definition of “Borrowing Base Deficiency” among other items. Pursuant to the Series 2025-FT1 Indenture Supplement, the Issuer issued Series 2025-FT1 term notes (the “Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $200 million. The Notes are mainly secured by a participation certificate representing a participation interest in the portfolio excess spread relating to Fannie Mae mortgage servicing rights owned by the Company. The Notes are priced at a variable rate based on SOFR plus a margin per annum and are expected to mature on December 19, 2030. The Notes will be paid on the 25th day of each calendar month, or, if such 25th day is not a business day, the next business day.

The Issuer sold the Notes to the initial purchaser in an offering (the “Offering”) that was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Notes were offered for resale to purchasers reasonably believed by the initial purchaser to be “qualified institutional buyers” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act.

The foregoing descriptions do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Base Indenture, Amendment No. 1 to the Base Indenture and the Series 2025-FT1 Indenture Supplement, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1, 10.1.1 and 10.1.2, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.
