Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On October 1, 2012, we purchased certain assets from, and entered into a license agreement with, The Hertz Corporation and/or its affiliates to operate car rental facilities in the Memphis, Tennessee area. In connection with that transaction, on October 1, 2012, we amended our credit agreement (the "U.S. Credit Agreement") with Mercedes-Benz Financial Services USA LLC and Toyota Motor Credit Corporation ("TMCC") to, among other things, accommodate the addition of vehicle financing for those rental facilities. These changes are further described in the amendment to the U.S. Credit Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
We purchase motor vehicles from Daimler AG and Toyota Motor Corporation, affiliates of the respective lenders under the U.S. Credit Agreement, for sale at certain of our dealerships. The lenders also provide us with "floor-plan", consumer and other financing.
