Item 7.01 Regulation FD.
On February 2, 2016, Toyota Motor Credit Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that it had reached a voluntary agreement with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the “CFPB”) and the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ” and, together with the CFPB, the “Agencies”) that addresses discretionary dealer compensation practices.
A copy of this press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference. The information in this item 7.01 and in Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On February 2, 2016 (the “Effective Date”), the Company reached a settlement with the Agencies related to the Agencies’ previously disclosed investigation of, and allegations regarding, the Company’s purchases of auto finance contracts from dealers and related discretionary dealer compensation practices. The Company entered into a consent order with each of the Agencies to reflect this settlement (together, the “Consent Orders”).
Pursuant to the Consent Orders, without admitting or denying any of the allegations, findings of fact or conclusions of law (except to establish jurisdiction), the Company has agreed to implement a new dealer compensation policy within 180 days of the Effective Date. In connection with the implementation of such policy, the Company has agreed to maintain general compliance management systems reasonably designed to assure compliance with all relevant federal consumer financial laws. Additionally, the Company has agreed to pay $19.9 million plus an additional amount up to $2 million in consumer restitution, which is within the amount the Company had previously recorded as a loss contingency.
Copies of the Consent Orders are attached as Exhibits 99.2 and 99.3 and incorporated herein by reference. The description of the Consent Orders set forth above does not purport to be complete and is qualified by reference to their full text.
