On November 19, 2012, the Company entered into a third amendment (the “Third Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement, originally dated as of September 17, 2010 (as cumulatively amended, the “Revolving Credit Agreement”), among the Company, the lenders and other banks named therein, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), as successor Administrative Agent and successor Collateral Agent.

Among other changes, the Third Amendment amends the Revolving Credit Agreement as follows: extends its term through November 19, 2014; changes the revolving credit commitment amount to up to $680.0 million; changes the relative commitments of the lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement; adds an alternate test for the commitment fee that retains the current fee of 0.40% per annum on the unused portion of the commitments unless the unused portion equals or exceeds 55% of the commitments, in which case the fee increases to 0.50% per annum; and modifies various covenants under the Revolving Credit Agreement.

The Company’s domestic subsidiaries that are parties to an amended and restated security agreement and an amended and restated guaranty agreement entered in connection with the Revolving Credit Agreement acknowledged and consented to the Third Amendment and confirmed that their obligations under these agreements remain in full force and effect with respect to the Company’s obligations after giving effect to the Third Amendment.

The foregoing description of the Third Amendment, including certain terms in this description which are defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement, is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of September 17, 2010 among the Company, the lenders named therein and Bank of Montreal, as Administrative Agent (now, by amendment, Wells Fargo), filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Form 8-K filed September 21, 2010, as initially amended by the terms of the first amendment, dated as of August 31, 2011, to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Form 8-K filed September 1, 2011, as further amended by the second amendment, dated as of May 1, 2012, to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Form 8-K filed May 1, 2012, and as further amended by the Third Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company's Form 8-K filed November 20, 2012.

The Company's notes payable consist of a $680.0 million senior notes payable revolving credit facility with $492.7 million outstanding at December 31, 2012. Subject to a borrowing base formula, the Company may borrow at the rate of LIBOR plus 3.0% with a minimum of 4.0%.  At December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2012, the Company’s effective interest rate, including the commitment fee, was 4.3% and 4.4%, respectively, and the unused amount available under the revolver at December 31, 2012 was $151.7 million. The Company also had $35.6 million that may become available under the revolving credit facility if it grows the net eligible finance receivables. The revolving credit facility has a commitment fee of 0.40% per annum on the unused portion of the commitment.  Borrowings under the revolving credit facility mature on November 19, 2014.

The Company has disclosed the borrowings and payments on senior notes payable in the consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. The updated disclosure of borrowings and payments for 2011 did not change the total cash provided by the financing activities for the nine month period ended December 31, 2011.

Substantially all of the Company’s assets are pledged as collateral for borrowings under the revolving credit agreement.
