Mr. Ellison has served as our Chief Executive Officer since February 2015 and as President of Altisource Residential Corporation (“Residential”) since March 31, 2015. Collectively with Mr. Pandey, Mr. Ellison is responsible for the overall strategic direction of our company and Residential. Prior to joining AAMC, Mr. Ellison had been employed for 19 years at Bank of America and its predecessor, NationsBank. Mr. Ellison held several roles over his career at Bank of America, most recently being the executive leading the team that managed the valuation and disposition of Bank of America’s legacy mortgage loan portfolio and a leading member of Bank of America’s Special Initiatives team that worked to resolve Bank of America’s representation and warranty litigation. Prior to his most recent roles, Mr. Ellison was Global Head of the Structured Products division within Bank of America’s Investment Banking platform.

He has over thirty years of management experience in directing grass-roots programs. On America’s social and economic development challenges, he has served as a public policy catalyst, a community outreach strategist and resource person to the White House, Congressional, state and local government officials, corporations and neighborhood leaders.
There are no arrangements or understandings between either Mr. Ellison or Mr. Byrd and any other person for his selection as a nominee.
