ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.
On February 24, 2011, Consumer Portfolio Services, Inc. ("CPS" or the "Company") and its subsidiary Page Seven Funding LLC (“Note Issuer”) entered into agreements with UBS Real Estate Securities Inc. ("Note Purchaser") and others that collectively constitute a revolving warehouse credit facility. Under this facility, CPS intends to sell eligible receivables to the Note Issuer, which in turn intends to pledge the receivables as collateral for a variable funding note issued and sold to the Note Purchaser. The amount that may be advanced under the variable funding note will be up to 78.5% of the principal amount of eligible pledged receivables, subject to an overall maximum of $100 million and a reserve account of 2.00% of the amounts advanced and outstanding. The ability to draw under the variable funding note is to end by its terms on February 24, 2012. The full amount outstanding under the note is due March 15, 2013, subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of certain defined events of default. The interest rate payable is 600 basis points over 30-day LIBOR through February 24, 2012, and thereafter 700 basis points over 30-day LIBOR. In connection with the credit facility, CPS has paid a closing fee of $1,000,000 to the Note Purchaser.
CPS disclaims any implication that such agreements are other than agreements entered into in the ordinary course of CPS's business.
ITEM 2.03 CREATION OF A DIRECT FINANCIAL OBLIGATION OR AN OBLIGATION UNDER AN OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENT OF A REGISTRANT.
