Item
1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive
Agreement.
Amendment No. 7 to the Third
Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement
On
October 20, 2010, DriveTime Automotive Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(“DTAG”), entered into Amendment No. 7 to the Third Amended and Restated Loan
and Security Agreement (the “Inventory Amendment”), amending the Third Amended
and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, dated August 10, 2009, by and among
DTAG, DriveTime Sales and Finance Company, LLC, an Arizona limited liability
company, as successor in interest to DriveTime Sales and Finance Corporation,
DriveTime Car Sales Company, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company, as
successor in interest to DriveTime Car Sales, Inc. (collectively, the
“Borrowers”), Santander Consumer USA Inc., an Illinois corporation, as a lender,
and as the agent for the lenders, and Manheim Automotive Financial Services,
Inc., a Delaware corporation, as a lender (the “Inventory
Agreement”).
The
Inventory Amendment amends the definitions in the Inventory Agreement of (i)
“Applicable Margin” to change it from 5.00% to 3.00%, (ii) “Termination Date” to
extend the date of termination from October 21, 2010 to October 19, 2011 and
(iii) “Approved Indebtedness” to extend the date of termination for any
indebtedness to qualify as Approved Indebtedness from December 31, 2011 to
December 31, 2012.
The
Inventory Amendment also amends (i) Section 3.2(b) of the Inventory Agreement to
reflect the calculation of the Non-Utilization Fee against each Lender’s
Aggregate Commitment, subject to certain thresholds set forth therein, (ii)
Section 4.2(c) to reflect that the rate of interest, if LIBOR ceases to be
available, cannot be below zero, (iii) and Section 10.14 to provide a
requirement of notification of Lenders for any breach, event of default or
default, event of termination, acceleration or the occurrence of any event
requiring a mandatory prepayment or mandatory offer to purchase (or similar
event) under any other material agreement of any Borrower, DT Acceptance
Corporation (“DTAC”) or any subsidiary of DTAG or DTAC, and (iv) Section 12.1(k)
of the Inventory Agreement to include and event of default for the failure to
maintain a first priority lien on the collateral securing the Inventory
Agreement.
The
foregoing description of the Inventory Agreement and the Inventory
Amendment is only a summary, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in
its entirety by reference to the Inventory Agreement, which was filed as Exhibit
10.9.1 to the Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-169730) filed on
