ITEM 1.01

ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

 

Effective as of June 2, 2009, Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group, Inc. (the “Company”) and certain of its subsidiaries entered into Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to the Second Amended and Restated Master Collateral Agency Agreement (the “Master Collateral Agreement”), dated as of February 14, 2007, among the Company, DTG Operations, Inc., Rental Car Finance Corp., the Financing Sources named therein and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Master Collateral Agent. The Master Collateral Agreement currently relates to two separate pools of collateral (“Group III” and “Group IV”) that support the Company’s Series 2005-1 (with respect to Group III) and 2006-1 and 2007-1 (with respect to Group IV) asset-backed medium term notes. Each Group contains cash, receivables and vehicles that may be re-designated to the other Group if certain conditions are met, including a condition that no Default (as defined in the Master Collateral Agreement) has occurred and is continuing.

The re-designation mechanism is intended to provide the Company with additional flexibility to manage its inventory in light of scheduled maturities of the notes and to permit an orderly disposition of vehicles to maximize proceeds and avoid dispositions of vehicles at inappropriate times in their depreciable life cycles. The Company requested the change to the mechanism that was effected by Amendment No. 1 as described below.

Amendment No. 1 amends the Master Collateral Agreement to permit the continued re-designation of vehicles from one Group to the other notwithstanding the occurrence and continuance of a bankruptcy or insolvency event with respect to any monoline insurance company (an ”Insurer”) for a series of the medium term notes (an “Insurer Related Amortization Event”). In the absence of Amendment No. 1, such an event would constitute a Default and therefore preclude re-designation of vehicles from one Group to another. Under Amendment No. 1, the Company’s ability to re-designate vehicles in such event remains subject to all of the other conditions to re-designation of collateral contained in the Master Collateral Agreement, none of which was amended, and a majority of the holders of a series of notes affected by such an Insurer event may direct that re-designation be prohibited.

In a letter agreement dated as of June 2, 2009 (the “Monoline Agreement”), the Company agreed with the Insurers of the medium term notes secured by Group IV collateral, as a condition to their execution of Amendment No. 1, that it would limit re-designation of vehicles from Group III to Group IV to no more than $200 million in net book value in the aggregate during the period from effectiveness of Amendment No. 1 until the occurrence (if any) of an Insurer Related Amortization Event with respect to the Series 2005-1 Notes, and to no more than $30 million in net book value per month after any occurrence of such an Insurer Related Amortization Event with respect to the Series 2005-1 Notes (in each case unless the Group IV Insurers otherwise consent).

In addition, in a letter agreement dated as of June 2, 2009 (the “Issuer Agreement”), the Company agreed with Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, in its capacity as Issuer of letters of credit under the Company’s Credit Agreement, dated as of June 15, 2007, among the Company, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, in its capacity as Administrative Agent, and various financial institutions party thereto (as amended to the date hereof, the “Credit Agreement”), that as a condition of Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas’ execution of Amendment No. 1 in its capacity as Enhancement Provider under the Company’s medium term note program, the Company will not request an increase in the Series 2005-1 Letter of Credit Amount under the Series 2005-1 Notes, unless approved by the Issuer at the direction of the Required Lenders (as defined in the Credit Agreement), at any time prior to the occurrence of an Insurer Related Amortization Event with respect to the Series 2005-1 Notes if, at the time, the Series 2005-1 Letter of Credit Amount were greater than $24,400,000 or if the requested increase would cause the Series 2005-1 Letter of Credit Amount to exceed that amount. The Company also agreed to reflect the foregoing as an amendment to the Credit Agreement at any time prior to the occurrence of an Insurer Related Amortization Event with respect to the Series 2005-1 Notes if so requested by the Required Lenders. Except as otherwise set forth above, capitalized terms used above are used as defined in the medium term note program documentation.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to Amendment No. 1, the Monoline Agreement and the Issuer Agreement attached hereto as Exhibits 4.210, 4.211 and 10.222, which are incorporated herein by reference.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference is made in this letter agreement (this “Agreement”) to (i) that certain Insurance Agreement (the “Ambac Insurance Agreement”, dated as of March 28, 2006, by and among Rental Car Finance Corp. (“RCFC”), Ambac Assurance Corporation (“Ambac”) and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (the “Trustee”); (ii) that certain Insurance Agreement (the “FGIC Insurance Agreement”, and together with the Ambac Insurance Agreement, the “Insurance Agreements”), dated May 23, 2007, between Financial Guaranty Insurance Company (“FGIC”) and RCFC; and (iii) that certain Amendment No. 1 to Second Amended and Restated Master Collateral Agency Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “MCAA Amendment”, and the Amended and Restated Master Collateral Agency Agreement as so amended, the “MCAA”), among Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group, Inc. (“DTAG”), DTG Operations, Inc. (“DTG Operations”), RCFC, various Financing Sources party thereto, various Beneficiaries party thereto, and the Trustee in its capacity as Trustee and as Master Collateral Agent. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms used in this Agreement are used as defined in the Ambac Insurance Agreement or the FGIC Insurance Agreement, as applicable). In consideration for the execution by Ambac and FGIC of the MCAA Amendment, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged by the parties hereto, but without limiting any rights arising pursuant to the Insurance Agreements, each of DTAG, Ambac and FGIC hereby agrees as follows:

 

(a) If an Insurer Related Amortization Event (as defined in the MCAA) has not occurred with respect to the Series 2005-1 Notes, without limiting any other condition for such redesignation, DTAG shall not, on or after June 2, 2009 and until the occurrence of such an Insurer Related Amortization Event, redesignate Master Collateral Vehicles pursuant to Section 2.3 of the MCAA with an aggregate Net Book Value in excess of

$200,000,000 in the aggregate with respect to moving Master Collateral Vehicles from Group III Collateral to Group IV Collateral, unless otherwise agreed by Ambac and FGIC in writing, provided that if an Insurer Related Amortization Event shall have occurred with respect to either the Series 2006-1 or Series 2007-1 Notes, the Insurer for the series in which no such event shall have occurred will have the sole right to provide such agreement and (b) if an Insurer Related Amortization Event shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Series 2005-1 Notes, without limiting any other condition for such redesignation, DTAG shall not redesignate Master Collateral Vehicles pursuant to Section 2.3 of the MCAA with respect to moving Master Collateral Vehicles from Group III Collateral to Group IV Collateral to the extent that during any calendar month beginning with the month during which such Insurer Related Amortization Event occurs, and continuing thereafter until November 30, 2009 (the “End Month”), the aggregate Net Book Value of the Vehicles subject to such redesignation during the applicable month shall exceed $30,000,000 (or with respect to the month during which such Insurer Related Amortization Event shall have occurred, such greater amount as shall have been subject to redesignation during such month on or prior to the occurrence of such Insurer Related Amortization Event); provided, however, that the current End Month shall be automatically extended one month at a time to the last day of the next succeeding month unless either Ambac or FGIC shall notify RCFC in writing within five days prior to the last day of the current End Month that such automatic extensions shall cease; provided further that if an Insurer Related Amortization Event shall have occurred with respect to both the Series 2006-1 Notes and the Series 2007-1 Notes the limitation on the redesignation of Vehicles set forth in this paragraph shall terminate.

 

THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A CONTRACT MADE UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AND FOR ALL PURPOSES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF SAID STATE.

 

This Agreement may be executed in counterparts and by separate parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Dated as of June 2, 2009

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We are writing with respect to Amendment No. 1 to Second Amended and Restated Master Collateral Agency Agreement, dated as of June 2, 2009, among Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group, Inc., DTG Operations, Inc., Rental Car Finance Corp., the other institutions party thereto and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, in its capacity as Trustee and as Master Collateral Agent and in its capacity as Enhancement Provider.

 

In connection with the foregoing and your execution of the same in your capacity as Enhancement Provider, we have been discussing with you in such capacity our ability to request the issuance of Enhancement Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement, dated as of June 15, 2007, among Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group, Inc., Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, in its capacity as Administrative Agent, and various financial institutions party thereto. We confirm that, with respect to the Series 2005-1 Letter of Credit, we agree that we will not request an increase in the Series 2005-1 Letter of Credit Amount without your prior approval (as you may be directed by the Required Lenders under the Credit Agreement) at any time prior to the occurrence of an Insurer Related Amortization Event with respect to the Series 2005-1 Notes if, at the time, the Series 2005-1 Letter of Credit Amount were greater than $24,400,000 or if the requested increase would cause the Series 2005-1 Letter of Credit Amount to exceed that amount. Except as otherwise set forth above, capitalized terms used above are used as defined in our medium term note program documentation.

 

We agree, reasonably promptly at the request of the Required Lenders under the Credit Agreement at any time prior to the occurrence of an Insurer Related Amortization Event with respect to the Series 2005-1 Notes, to execute an amendment to the Credit Agreement in substantially the form of prior amendments thereto (except that we will be required solely to make representations that relate to the due authorization, execution, validity and enforceability of the amendment) that incorporates the foregoing provision relating to the Series 2005 Enhancement Letter of Credit into the Credit Agreement. It is understood and agreed that the amendment shall not change any other provision of the Credit Agreement or impose any other obligation or restriction on us that is not currently provided for in the Credit Agreement or the new provision relating to the Series 2005-1 Letter of Credit as set forth in the preceding paragraph and, subject to the foregoing, shall be otherwise reasonably acceptable to us.

 

 

 

 

As we have discussed, we will be filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission a copy of Amendment No. 1 to the Second Amended and Restated Master Collateral Agency Agreement and will make disclosure in connection therewith of the restrictions on re-designation of vehicles agreed to in paragraph 2 of the letter agreement between us and the Insurers of the Series 2006-1 Notes and the Series 2007-1 Notes executed in connection therewith (a copy of which we have previously provided to you).

 

Any breach by us of our agreements in this Letter (in the case of (i) our breach of our agreement to enter into the amendment to the Credit Agreement, if such breach continues unremedied for a period of 5 Business Days after notice thereof shall have been given by you to us, or (ii) any failure by us to make the public disclosures described above, within 7 Business Days after the date hereof) shall, unless otherwise determined by the Required Lenders, constitute an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement.
