Item 1.01.
|
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
On October 4, 2011, CARS Acquisition LLC, CAR Financial Services, Inc., CAR Funding II, Inc. and Consumer Auto Receivables Servicing, LLC (“Borrowers”) entered into a loan and security agreement with Wells Fargo Preferred Capital, Inc. The Borrowers are indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of CompuCredit Holdings Corporation (“CompuCredit”) comprising the CAR operations of our Auto Finance segment.
This facility provides for $40.0 million in available financing that can be drawn to the extent of outstanding eligible principal receivables within the Borrowers’ operations and accrues interest at an annual rate equal to LIBOR plus 4.0%. The facility matures October 4, 2014. The facility is subject to certain affirmative covenants, including a coverage ratio, a leverage ratio and a collateral performance test, the failure of which could result in required early repayment of all or a portion of the outstanding balance.
The facility is secured by the general financial and operating assets of the Borrowers.

Item 2.01.

Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On October 10, 2011, CompuCredit and certain of its subsidiaries completed the planned sale of substantially all the assets underlying CompuCredit’s Retail Micro-Loans segment to AAFA Acquisition, Inc., a subsidiary of Advance America, Cash Advance Centers, Inc. for $46.7 million, comprised of the $45.6 million contract amount and a working capital adjustment of approximately $1.1 million (an amount which may be subject to further post-closing adjustments and indemnities). Together with another $9.5 million of excess working capital that CompuCredit received immediately prior to completion of the transaction under its terms, and net of transaction-related expenditures, CompuCredit’s net pre-tax proceeds
are expected to approximate $53.8 million.
The foregoing description of the terms of the Retail Micro-Loan segment’s sale is qualified in its entirety by reference to the agreement between CompuCredit and AAFA Acquisition, Inc., which was attached as Exhibit 2.1 to our Form 8-K filed on August 8, 2011, and is incorporated herein by reference.
