Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 12, 2018, Carvana Co. (the “Company”) and Ernest C. Garcia III, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, entered into a Contribution Agreement (the “Agreement”). Pursuant to the Agreement, Mr. Garcia will give back and contribute to the Company, at no charge, 164,835 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock (the “Share Contribution”). The Share Contribution is intended to fund restricted stock unit awards to employees of Carvana, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, upon their satisfying certain employment tenure requirements. Although the Company does not expect Mr. Garcia to incur any tax obligations related to the Share Contribution, it has indemnified Mr. Garcia from any such obligations that may arise.

The Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
