At the Special Meeting, you will be asked (i) to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the sale (the "Proposed Sale") by the Company to Dollar Systems, Inc. or its subsidiary ("Dollar") of substantially all of the Company's assets relating to or used in operation of the Company's vehicle rental and related operations (collectively, the "Division"), pursuant to the terms and conditions of a Settlement Agreement dated as of July 18, 1995 (as amended, the "Settlement Agreement") by and between the Company and Dollar, and (ii) to transact such other business as may properly come before the Special Meeting. The purchase price for the assets of the Division is comprised of (i) $2,625,000 in cash and (ii) the assumption by Dollar of certain liabilities relating to the Division, including, without limitation, approximately $3,225,000 owed by the Company to Dollar. If Dollar elects to close the Proposed Sale, Dollar will also receive 10% of the Common Stock of the Company on a fully-diluted basis as additional consideration and the Company may elect to issue and, if so issued, Dollar shall accept, a promissory note (the "Net Worth Note"), to the extent that the net worth of the Division as of the deemed closing of the Proposed Sale as shown on an unaudited balance sheet (the "Unaudited Balance Sheet") to be delivered by the Company to Dollar at the closing of the Proposed Sale (the "Unaudited Net Worth") is more negative than negative Six Hundred Thousand Dollars (-$600,000) (the "Minimum Net Worth Requirement"). The Net Worth Note shall be in a principal amount up to $1,050,000 (with such maximum subject to decrease as described herein) and shall have minimal covenants, a balloon principal payment due September 1, 2007 and semi-annual interest payments at a per annum rate of 10%. Dollar and the Company have agreed that the closing of the Proposed Sale shall be deemed to have occurred on October 31, 1995 (the "Settlement Date") regardless of the actual date of the consummation of the sale, transfer and conveyance of the Division's assets by the Company and the purchase of the Division's assets by Dollar paying the consideration described above and the settlement of certain contested claims by Dollar and the Company to the extent provided in the Settlement Agreement, and the making of other agreements, all as contemplated by the Settlement Agreement (the date of such consummation is referred to as the "Closing"). The net cash proceeds of the Proposed Sale will be applied to the payment of $.50 for each $1.00 in face amount of tendered securities described below, and together with the issuance of up to 30% of the Common Stock of the Company on a fully-diluted basis and the issuance of up to $1,050,000 in new debentures (as described herein), will be used, if the exchange offer described herein is successful in accordance with its terms, as consideration to the holders (the "Debentureholders") of the Company's $5,250,000 outstanding principal amount of 10% Convertible Subordinated Debentures Due 2007 (the "Debentures") in exchange for (i) the tendering by the Debentureholders of their Debentures pursuant to an exchange offer being made by the Company to the Debentureholders (the "Exchange Offer") and (ii) the amendment of the Indenture (as heretofore amended, the "Indenture") dated September 1, 1987 between the Company and Manufacturers Hanover Trust Co. of California, as Trustee (as successor to Trust Services of America, Inc.), pursuant to which the Debentures have been issued, to provide for limited covenant obligations for the Company thereunder. The net cash proceeds of the Proposed Sale, to the extent not applied to the $.50 per $1.00 in face amount exchange described above shall be returned to Dollar. In addition to the $.50 for each $1.00 in face amount of tendered Debentures being paid from the net cash proceeds of the Proposed Sale, each tendering Debentureholder under the Exchange Offer will receive (a) 0.769505 shares of Common Stock for each $1.00 in face amount of Debentures tendered and (b) its pro rata share of new debentures of the Company, to be issued pursuant to an Indenture substantially similar to the Indenture but with minimal covenants and with no equity conversion feature (the "New Debentures") in an original face amount of (1) $1,050,000 less (2) the face amount of any Debentures not tendered pursuant to the Exchange Offer (the "Non-Tendered Debentures") and (3) less the original principal amount of the Net Worth Note, if any (collectively, together with net cash proceeds of the Proposed Sale, the "Exchange Consideration"). Following consummation of the Transactions hereinafter defined, the aggregate principal amount of indebtedness of the Company in respect of the Non-Tendered Debentures, if any, the New Debentures and the Net Worth Note will not exceed $1,050,000. The Exchange Offer is conditioned upon tendering of 95% in face amount of the Debentures (the "Minimum Tender"). In the event the Minimum Tender is not received, the Company intends to file a prepackaged Chapter 11 plan of reorganization (the "Prepackaged Plan"). The Prepackaged Plan provides that each Debentureholder would receive (i) its pro rata share of $2,625,000 (less any allowed priority and administrative claims), (ii) 0.769505 shares of the Common Stock of the Company for each $1.00 in face amount of Debentures tendered and (iii) its pro rata share of the New Debentures, in an original face amount as described above (the "Plan Consideration"). At a minimum the Prepackaged Plan, if implemented by the Company and confirmed by the bankruptcy court, would result (a) in the cash portion of the Plan Consideration under the Prepackaged Plan available for distribution to the Debentureholders being reduced to the extent of allowed priority and administrative claims and (b) the Debentureholders sharing the Plan Consideration on a pro rata basis with the holders, if any, of allowed claims of the class to which the Debentures belong. The Company believes that, should the Prepackaged Plan be implemented, administrative expenses for fees of attorneys and other professional advisors could exceed $200,000. The Company is not presently able to estimate the amount of claims of the class to which the Debentures belong. The Company is presently not aware of any such creditors. The Prepackaged Plan contemplates that contingent claimants will be unimpaired by the Prepackaged Plan. The Prepackaged Plan, with its present distributions, cannot be confirmed over the affirmative objection of the Debentureholders. The Company has not received the results of its solicitation of the Debentureholder votes on the Prepackaged Plan. As a condition to the Closing, the Company must have received the tender and/or consent of Debentureholders holding in the aggregate at least 95% of the face value of the Debentures to the Proposed Sale or, alternatively, both (1) at least two-thirds (by face amount of Debentures) of the Debentureholders voting in the consent solicitation for the Prepackaged Plan must have approved the Prepackaged Plan and (2) at least a majority in number of the Debentureholders voting in the consent solicitation for the Prepackaged Plan must have approved the Prepackaged Plan; provided, that, satisfaction of the foregoing clauses (1) and (2) shall be determined without including any acceptances of "insiders" (as defined by 11 U.S.C. Section 101 et seq. (the "Bankruptcy Code") the satisfaction of both of such conditions being called the "Requisite Plan Acceptances"). Following consummation of the Proposed Sale and consummation of the Exchange Offer or the Prepackaged Plan you will retain your equity interest in the Company which will have substantially reduced its long-term debt obligations. Your retained equity interest in the Company will be diluted to the extent that Dollar receives the Common Stock contemplated by the Proposed Sale and to the extent the exchanging Debentureholders receive the Common Stock contemplated by the Exchange Offer or the Debentureholders receive Common Stock as contemplated by the Prepackaged Plan. The proposed sale does not include the stock South Seas Motors, Inc., the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary. YOUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS [UNANIMOUSLY] APPROVED THE PROPOSED SALE AND EXCHANGE OFFER AND RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE PROPOSED SALE AND THE EXCHANGE OFFER. In arriving at its recommendation, the Board of Directors gave careful consideration to a number of factors as described in the enclosed Proxy Statement, including an opinion of Houlihan, Lokey, Howard & Zukin, the Company's financial advisor, that the consideration to be received by the Company pursuant to the Settlement Agreement (as more fully described in the enclosed Proxy Statement) is fair to the Company. The Board of Directors has for some time considered the strategic direction of the Company in light of, among other things, the long-term competitive forces facing the Division and the current levels of long-term liabilities owing by the Company, and the potential for future earnings and growth of the Division. Based on these and other considerations more fully discussed in the enclosed Proxy Statement, the Board of Directors believes that the proposed sale of the Division to Dollar and the consummation of the Exchange Offer with the Debentureholders is expedient and fair and in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. Details of the proposed sale and the Exchange Offer and other important information are included in the accompanying Proxy Statement. Please give this material your careful attention. Whether or not you plan to attend the Special Meeting, please complete, sign and date the accompanying proxy card and return it in the enclosed prepaid envelope. If you attend the Special Meeting, you may vote in person even if you have previously returned your proxy card. Your prompt cooperation will be greatly appreciated. Yours sincerely, Alan M.

PACIFIC INTERNATIONAL SERVICES CORP. 1600 Kapiolani Blvd., Suite 825 Honolulu, Hawaii 96814 PROXY STATEMENT SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS To be held on November 27, 1995 This Proxy Statement is being furnished to the holders of the Common Stock, no par value ("Common Stock") of Pacific International Services Corp., a California corporation (together with any successors thereto, variously referred to as "PISC" or the "Company") in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors of the Company to be used at a Special Meeting of Shareholders of the Company (including any adjournment or postponement thereof, the "Special Meeting") to be held on November 27, 1995 at 9:00 a.m., Hawaii time, at the Pacific Club, 1451 Queen Emma Street, Honolulu, Hawaii. At the Special Meeting, shareholders of the Company will be asked (i) to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the sale (the "Proposed Sale") by the Company to Dollar Systems, Inc. or its subsidiary ("Dollar") of substantially all of the Company's assets relating to or used in operation of the Company's vehicle rental and related operations (collectively, the "Division"), pursuant to the terms and conditions of a Settlement Agreement dated as of July 18, 1995 (as amended, the "Settlement Agreement") by and between the Company and Dollar, and (ii) to transact such other business as may properly come before the Special Meeting. A copy of the Settlement Agreement together with the First through Sixth Amendments thereto and the current forms of Exhibits B (Agreed Practices), H (Specified Excluded Assets of Seller), L (Specified Retained Liabilities of Seller), Q (Stock Pledge Agreement) and X (Notice of Modification of Existing Franchise) thereto is attached to this Proxy Statement as Annex A. The purchase price for the assets of the Division is comprised of (i) $2,625,000 in cash and (ii) the assumption by Dollar of certain liabilities relating to the Division, including, without limitation, approximately $3,225,000 owed by the Company to Dollar. If Dollar elects to close the Proposed Sale, Dollar will also receive 10% of the Common Stock of the Company on a fully-diluted basis as additional consideration and the Company may elect to issue and, if so issued, Dollar shall accept, a promissory note (the "Net Worth Note"), to the extent that the net worth of the Division as of the deemed closing of the Proposed Sale as shown on an unaudited balance sheet (the "Unaudited Balance Sheet") to be delivered by the Company to Dollar at the closing of the Proposed Sale (the "Unaudited Net Worth") is more negative than negative Six Hundred Thousand Dollars (-$600,000) (the "Minimum Net Worth Requirement"). The Net Worth Note shall be in a principal amount up to $1,050,000 (with such maximum subject to decrease as described herein) and shall have minimal covenants, a balloon principal payment due September 1, 2007 and semi-annual interest payments at a per annum rate of 10%. Dollar and the Company have agreed that the closing of the Proposed Sale shall be deemed to have occurred on October 31, 1995 (the "Settlement Date") regardless of the actual date of the consummation of the sale, transfer and conveyance of the Division's assets by the Company and the purchase of the Division's assets by Dollar paying the consideration described above and the settlement of certain contested claims by Dollar and the Company to the extent provided in the Settlement Agreement, and the making of other agreements, all as contemplated by the Settlement Agreement (the date of such consummation is referred to as the "Closing"). See -- "Terms of the Proposed Sale". The net cash proceeds of the Proposed Sale will be applied to the payment of $.50 for each $1.00 in face amount of tendered securities described below, and together with the issuance of up to 30% of the Common Stock of the Company on a fully-diluted basis and the issuance of up to $1,050,000 in new debentures (as described herein), will be used, if the exchange offer described herein is successful in accordance with its terms, as consideration to the holders (the "Debentureholders") of the Company's $5,250,000 outstanding principal amount of 10% Convertible Subordinated Debentures Due 2007 (the "Debentures") in exchange for (i) the tendering by the Debentureholders of their Debentures pursuant to an exchange offer being made by the Company to the Debentureholders (the "Exchange Offer") and (ii) the amendment of the Indenture (as heretofore amended, the "Indenture") dated September 1, 1987 between the Company and Manufacturers Hanover Trust Co. of California, as Trustee (as successor to Trust Services of America, Inc.), pursuant to which the Debentures have been issued, to provide for limited covenant obligations for the Company thereunder. The net cash proceeds of the Proposed Sale, to the extent not applied to the $.50 per $1.00 in face amount exchange described above shall be returned to Dollar. In addition to the $.50 for each $1.00 in face amount of tendered Debentures being paid from the net cash proceeds of the Proposed Sale, each tendering Debentureholder under the Exchange Offer will receive (a) 0.769505 shares of Common Stock for each $1.00 in face amount of Debentures tendered and (b) its pro rata share of new debentures of the Company, to be issued pursuant to an Indenture substantially similar to the Indenture but with minimal covenants and with no equity conversion feature (the "New Debentures") in an original face amount of (1) $1,050,000 less (2) the face amount of any Debentures not tendered pursuant to the Exchange Offer (the "Non-Tendered Debentures") and (3) less the original principal amount of the Net Worth Note, if any (collectively, together with net cash proceeds of the Proposed Sale, the "Exchange Consideration"). Following consummation of the Transactions hereinafter defined, the aggregate principal amount of indebtedness of the Company in respect of the Non-Tendered Debentures, if any, the New Debentures and the Net Worth Note will not exceed $1,050,000. The Exchange Offer is conditioned upon tendering of 95% in face amount of the Debentures (the "Minimum Tender"). See -- "The Exchange Offer". In the event the Minimum Tender is not received, the Company intends to file a prepackaged Chapter 11 plan of reorganization (the "Prepackaged Plan"). The Prepackaged Plan provides that each Debentureholder would receive (i) its pro rata share of $2,625,000 (less any allowed priority and administrative claims), (ii) 0.769505 shares of the Common Stock of the Company for each $1.00 in face amount of Debentures tendered and (iii) its pro rata share of the New Debentures, in an original face amount as described above (the "Plan Consideration"). At a minimum the Prepackaged Plan, if implemented by the Company and confirmed by the bankruptcy court, would result (a) in the cash portion of the Plan Consideration under the Prepackaged Plan available for distribution to the Debentureholders being reduced to the extent of allowed priority and administrative claims and (b) the Debentureholders sharing the Plan Consideration on a pro rata basis with the holders, if any, of allowed claims of the class to which the Debentures belong. The Company believes that, should the Prepackaged Plan be implemented, administrative expenses for fees of attorneys and other professional advisors could exceed $200,000. The Company is not presently able to estimate the amount of claims of the class to which the Debentures belong. The Company is presently not aware of any such creditors. The Prepackaged Plan contemplates that contingent claimants will be unimpaired by the Prepackaged Plan. The Prepackaged Plan, with its present distributions, cannot be confirmed over the affirmative objection of the Debentureholders. The Company has not received the results of its solicitation of the Debentureholder votes on the Prepackaged Plan. As a condition to the Closing, the Company must have received the tender and/or consent of Debentureholders holding in the aggregate at least 95% of the face value of the Debentures to the Proposed Sale or, alternatively, both (1) at least two-thirds (by face amount of Debentures) of the Debentureholders voting in the consent solicitation for the Prepackaged Plan must have approved the Prepackaged Plan and (2) at least a majority in number of the Debentureholders voting in the consent solicitation for the Prepackaged Plan must have approved the Prepackaged Plan; provided, that, satisfaction of the foregoing clauses (1) and (2) shall be determined without including any acceptances of "insiders" (as defined by 11 U.S.C. Section 101 et seq. (the "Bankruptcy Code") the satisfaction of both of such conditions being called the "Requisite Plan Acceptances"). See -- "The Prepackaged Plan". The consummation of the Proposed Sale and the Exchange Offer or the Prepackaged Plan and the other transactions contemplated by the Settlement Agreement are collectively referred to as the "Transactions". If the Transactions do not close as planned, the Board of Directors believes that it is doubtful that the vehicle rental operations and the Company as a whole could continue as going concerns, although South Seas on a stand alone basis could, in the opinion of management, continue to be viable. THE COMPANY IS SOLICITING YOUR PROXY SOLELY IN CONNECTION WITH APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSED SALE, AND SUCH OTHER BUSINESS AS MAY PROPERLY COME BEFORE THE SPECIAL MEETING. THE APPROVAL OF THE SHAREHOLDERS IS NOT BEING SOLICITED FOR THE CONSUMMATION OF THE EXCHANGE OFFER, THE PREPACKAGED PLAN OR THE ISSUANCE OF PREVIOUSLY AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK TO THE DEBENTUREHOLDERS OR DOLLAR IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. The Proposed Sale is not being effected as part of a liquidation and dissolution of the Company or in contemplation thereof. Rather, the Company intends to use the proceeds of the Proposed Sale to consummate the Exchange Offer or to redeem the Debentures through the Prepackaged Plan and thereby substantially reduce the Company's long-term debt obligations. Your retained equity interest in the Company will be diluted to the extent that Dollar receives 10% of the Common Stock of the Company on a fully-diluted basis and to the extent the Debentureholders receive previously authorized Common Stock pursuant to the Exchange Offer or the Prepackaged Plan. The Proposed Sale does not include the stock of South Seas Motors, Inc., the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary ("South Seas"), through which the Company operates the automobile dealership segment of its business. The Company does not intend to include South Seas in the Prepackaged Plan. The Company believes that the consummation of the Transactions will permit the Company to focus on the automobile dealership business and will enhance the Company's prospects because the Company's rental car segment has been primarily responsible for the Company's losses for the last three years. The close of business on November 8, 1995 (the "Record Date") has been fixed as the record date for determining holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. Approval of the Proposed Sale will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of the outstanding Common Stock. THEREFORE, FAILURE TO VOTE IS EQUIVALENT TO A VOTE AGAINST APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSED SALE. The officers and directors of the Company, as a group, _________, ___________, holders of approximately 12.3%, ____% and ___%, respectively, of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (excluding shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon conversion of the Debentures and which were not outstanding and entitled to vote as of the Record Date), intend to vote all of their shares of Common Stock for approval of the Proposed Sale. Assuming such shares are voted IN FAVOR of the Proposed Sale, the affirmative vote of only _______ additional shares of Common Stock (representing approximately ____% of the shares of Common Stock currently outstanding) would be required to approve the Proposed Sale. As of the Record Date, 8,079,800 shares of Common Stock were outstanding and entitled to vote. Each outstanding share of Common Stock will be entitled to one vote on each matter considered at the Special Meeting. There are no other classes of voting securities of the Company outstanding. See "Voting -- General." If the enclosed form of proxy is properly executed and returned, it will be voted at the Special Meeting in accordance with the specifications thereof. If no instructions are specified in the proxy, the shares represented thereby will be voted in favor of the Proposed Sale. A proxy may be revoked, at any time before it has been voted, upon written notice to the Secretary of the Company, by submitting a subsequently dated proxy or by attending the Special Meeting and withdrawing the proxy. This Proxy Statement and the enclosed form of proxy is being mailed on or about November 15, 1995, to shareholders of record on the Record Date entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. The Company will bear the cost of solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors, including charges and expenses of brokerage firms, banks and others for forwarding solicitation materials to beneficial holders. In addition to the use of the mails, proxies may be solicited by officers and employees of the Company, without remuneration, by personal contact, telephone or telegraph. The Company has retained Georgesan & Co. to aid in the solicitation of proxies. Georgesan & Co. has also been retained to assist the Company in the solicitation of tenders to the Exchange Offer and consents to the Prepackaged Plan. A fee of $____, plus out-of-pocket costs and expenses, will be paid by the Company to Georgesan & Co. for their services. The Company's principal executive offices are located at 1600 Kapiolani Boulevard, Suite 825, Honolulu, Hawaii 96814 and its telephone number is (808) 926-4242. Dollar's principal executive offices are located at 5330 East 31st Street, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74103 and its telephone number is (918) 669-3000. THE PROPOSED SALE PURPOSE AND BACKGROUND OF THE PROPOSED SALE The Company was incorporated in Hawaii on April 8, 1974, as Olson Car Rental Corp. and changed its name to Pacific International Sales Corp. on August 2, 1983. The Company's name was subsequently changed to Pacific International Services Corp. In November 1983, the Company changed its domicile to California. The Company's Common Stock was then sold to the public pursuant to the terms of a unit offering, and the Company became publicly held. On June 2, 1987, the Company's Common Stock began trading on NASDAQ under the symbol "PISC". The Company participated in a telephone hearing with an advisory committee of NASDAQ on October 5, 1995 (the "NASDAQ Hearing) to determine whether the Common Stock would be deleted for failure to satisfy minimum trading value and capital requirements of the NASDAQ. The Company was advised on October 12, 1995 that NASDAQ had granted an exception to these requirements subject to certain conditions including that the Company receive the approval of its shareholders for the Proposed Sale by [October 31, 1995] and that the Proposed Sale be consummated by [November 15, 1995]. The Company operates two business segments: passenger vehicle rental operations and automobile dealership operations. The Company's vehicle rental operations are carried out directly by the Company under the name Dollar Rent A Car pursuant to an exclusive License Agreement, dated April 3, 1974, as amended (the "License Agreement"), with Dollar. The Company's automobile dealership operations are carried out through South Seas. The Company acquired Cutter Jeep Renault, Inc., a Jeep Eagle dealership in Hawaii on October 30, 1987. Cutter Jeep Renault, Inc. subsequently changed its name to South Seas Motors, Inc. The Company combined certain of its existing operations and the operations of South Seas Motors, Inc. into a full-service car and truck dealership which is now operated as South Seas. South Seas has two locations on the island of Oahu, South Seas Jeep Eagle ("SSJE") and Oahu Chrysler Jeep ("OCJ"). South Seas also operated a used car dealership in Kaneohe which was closed in December 1993. SSJE is located at the corner of Nimitz Highway and Lagoon Drive near Honolulu International Airport. SSJE sells new Jeep, Eagle and Hyundai vehicles. The Hyundai line was added in 1993. SSJE is the only Hyundai dealership in Oahu. OCJ began business in 1992 in the Waipahu area of leeward Oahu. OCJ sells new Chrysler, Plymouth, Jeep and Eagle vehicles. Both locations also sell used cars. The Company believes that SSJE is the state's leading Hyundai dealer by sales volume. During 1994, South Seas' combined retail sales averaged approximately 81 new vehicles and 130 used vehicles per month. In 1993, South Seas' combined retail sales averaged approximately 97 new vehicles and 160 used vehicles per month. The decrease in 1994 was mainly due to the limited availability of new inventory from Chrysler Corporation ("Chrysler") during 1994 and the closure of the separate used car dealership in Kaneohe. For the first six months of 1995, South Seas' combined retail sales averaged approximately 90 new vehicles and 157 used vehicles per month. The business and profits of the Company have suffered from several factors which have primarily affected the rental car segment. Tourism and business in Hawaii have been negatively impacted over the last several years by a number of factors. Hurricane Iniki devastated the island of Kauai and caused casualty losses and loss of business which reduced rental car demand in Kauai through the first part of 1995. The Gulf War and general recession both disrupted tourism to Hawaii from key markets and depressed visitor arrivals to Hawaii through 1994. The effects of the foregoing factors included a decline in the Company's rental volume and a corresponding increase in fleet holding costs. In addition, there has been increased competition for high volume wholesale accounts from corporate car rental companies which has negatively impacted the Company's daily rental volume. The Company's fleet holding costs have increased significantly over the past three years. The Company's business also suffered because in 1993 automobile manufacturers, as part of a stated effort to cut manufacturing losses, reduced sales of cars to rental car customers for 1994 model year vehicles. General Motors ("GM"), which controlled National and Avis and was the major supplier for Alamo (all major car-rental operators), established an 85,000-car minimum for its rental fleet customers, effectively excluding Dollar and thus the Company. Ford Motor Company ("Ford"), which controlled Hertz and Budget, devised a formula that left Dollar and thus the Company with an insignificant allocation of automobiles. In Hawaii, the Company lost its access to GM cars because GM cut its total fleet sales from 850,000 cars/year to 400,000 cars/year. Ford also cut its allocation of cars after acquiring 100% of Hertz, and no longer supplies cars to the Company. In response to the limited availability of cars, Dollar offered a lease program to the Company, at significantly higher cost compared to the programs previously made available to the Company by Ford and GM, resulting in the Company's rental fleet cost doubling between 1991 and 1995. In response to the Company's financial difficulties, the Company obtained an assistance agreement from Dollar in 1994 (the "1994 Assistance Agreement"). Pursuant to the terms of the 1994 Assistance Agreement, Dollar (i) reduced the fees payable under the License Agreement during 1994, (ii) waived and discharged certain fees owed by the Company under the License Agreement prior to 1994, (iii) increased certain incentive credits, rebates and allowances to the Company and (iv) advanced the Company $1,400,000 to allow the Company to make certain payments to Dollar. (See - THE COMPANY; Dollar). Due to the Company's continuing financial difficulties, in March of 1995 after lengthy negotiations, the Company obtained a commitment in principle from Dollar for certain assistance for 1995 (the "1995 Assistance Commitment"). Under this commitment, the Company would have received substantial economic benefits and certain disputes between the Company and Dollar would have been resolved. However, the parties were unable to agree upon the final documentation with respect to the 1995 Assistance Commitment. (See - THE COMPANY; Dollar). Pending further negotiations, the Company withheld certain payments asserted by Dollar to be owing to Dollar under the License Agreement. Dollar filed a legal action in U.S. District Court to compel the Company to execute the documentation proposed by Dollar to embody its understanding of the 1995 Assistance Commitment. Shortly thereafter, Dollar sent the Company notices purporting to terminate the License Agreement and the Master Lease Agreement dated October 22, 1993 between Dollar and the Company (the "Master Lease Agreement"). The Company subsequently commenced its own legal action against Dollar for damages and injunctive relief based on violations of the License Agreement and Hawaii law which had been the subject of extensive discussions between the Company and Dollar. Subsequent discussions led to execution of a standstill agreement, later amended and extended, and, finally to negotiation of the Settlement Agreement. The parties have agreed to suspend all litigation without prejudice but may choose to recommence proceedings should the Transactions fail to close. (See - TERMS OF THE PROPOSED SALE; Standstill Agreement; Settlement of Claims). The Company reported consolidated net losses of $1,427,461, $804,062 and $2,104,502 in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. For the three months ending March 31, 1995, the Company experienced a net loss of $378,141 and for the six months ending June 30, 1995, the Company experienced a net loss of $1,977,615. ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF THE TRANSACTIONS The Company has entered into the Settlement Agreement and wishes to consummate the Transactions because it believes that unless the Transactions are successful and the Company is consequently relieved of the liabilities of the Division being assumed by Dollar and of the debt burden of the Debentures being compromised as part of the Exchange Offer or Prepackaged Plan, the Company's operations will be severely impaired. The Company is incurring and will continue to incur substantial transaction costs including legal and accounting and other professional fees related to the Transactions. Although Dollar permanently forgave up to $300,000 of obligations of the Company under the License Agreement, and even though in the event of the Closing Dollar will assume all operating obligations of the Division after October 31, 1995, the Company believes that support from Dollar will not continue if the Transactions do not close as planned. IF THE TRANSACTIONS DO NOT CLOSE AS PLANNED, AND FURTHER ASSISTANCE FROM DOLLAR IS NOT MADE AVAILABLE, IT IS DOUBTFUL THAT THE VEHICLE RENTAL OPERATIONS AND THE COMPANY AS A WHOLE COULD CONTINUE AS GOING CONCERNS, ALTHOUGH SOUTH SEAS ON A STAND ALONE BASIS COULD, IN THE OPINION OF MANAGEMENT, CONTINUE TO BE VIABLE. The stock of South Seas has been pledged as part of the Settlement Agreement to Dollar to secure certain of the Company's obligations to Dollar. (See - TERMS OF THE PROPOSED SALE; Pledge of Stock of South Seas). A disadvantage of the Transactions from the perspective of the Company's stockholders is the dilution of their retained equity interests in the Company to the extent that Dollar receives 10% of the Common Stock of the Company on a fully-diluted basis and to the extent the Debentureholders receive approximately 30% of the Common Stock of the Company on a fully-diluted basis pursuant to either the Exchange Offer or the Prepackaged Plan. However, the Company believes that if the Transactions do not close, it is doubtful that the vehicle rental operations and the Company as a whole could continue as going concerns. In addition, if the Company is required to implement the Settlement Agreement through the Prepackaged Plan, the consent of the Stockholders to the Prepackaged Plan will be unnecessary as provided since they are a junior class of creditors (relative to the Debentureholders who will constitute a more senior class of impaired creditors) and a senior class will have approved the Prepackaged Plan. RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR PROPOSED SALE THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY HAS [UNANIMOUSLY] APPROVED THE PROPOSED SALE. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY RECOMMENDS APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSED SALE BY THE SHAREHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY. The material factors considered by the Board of Directors in making such recommendation include the following: o The Board of Directors viewed the price offered by Dollar as representing a fair price (of cash and assumed liabilities) for the Division on a current basis. o The advice of the Company's financial advisors that the purchase price represented a premium over various implied equity values under various types of business analyses. o The Proposed Sale will enable the Company to substantially reduce its long- term debt obligations with respect to the Debentures. o The Proposed Sale is in conjunction with the Settlement Agreement that eliminates the risk of litigation with Buyer, including the risk that Buyer could terminate Seller's rights under the License Agreement and the Master Lease, and the risk that Seller would not prevail in its causes of action asserted against Buyer. o The Proposed Sale should result in no substantial income tax consequences due to the availability of tax loss carryforwards. (See - Certain Effects of the Proposed Sale, Federal Income Tax Consequences). o Dollar has agreed to assume substantially all of the Company's liabilities associated with the Division (excluding the Debentures and certain other retained liabilities), including substantially all of the Company's bank debt and vehicle financing arrangements in respect to the Division. o The consummation of the Proposed Sale was viewed as more beneficial to the Company and its shareholders than the pursuit of pending litigation with and against Dollar. Although the purchase price, assumption of liabilities and reduction of long- term debt obligations in respect of the Debentures were the principal factors considered by the Board of Directors, the decision to approve and recommend the Proposed Sale was a combination of all of the factors listed above. In this regard, the structure of the Proposed Sale and the Company's ability to be in a position to satisfy its remaining obligations were also important to the Board of Directors in approving the Proposed Sale. IN JULY 1995, THE COMPANY ENGAGED HOULIHAN, LOKEY, HOWARD & ZUKIN TO, AMONG OTHER THINGS, ASSIST IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF A LIQUIDATION ANALYSIS OF THE COMPANY IN THE EVENT THE SALE TO DOLLAR DID NOT OCCUR AND IT BECAME UNABLE TO CONTINUE ITS OPERATIONS. THE LIQUIDATION ANALYSIS PREPARED BY THE COMPANY DETERMINED THAT IN THE MOST PROBABLE CASE SCENARIO (AS OF JUNE 30, 1995), IF A LIQUIDATION WERE TO OCCUR, ONLY BETWEEN A RANGE OF $54,588 AND $2,092,540 WOULD BE AVAILABLE AFTER PAYING PRIORITY CLAIMS, LIQUIDATION EXPENSES AND SECURED CREDITORS. THIS RESIDUAL CASH BALANCE WOULD HAVE BEEN SHARED AMONG THE OLD DEBTHOLDERS AND ALL OTHER UNSECURED CREDITORS AND, AT THAT TIME, WOULD HAVE RESULTED IN A PAYMENT TO THE OLD DEBTHOLDERS OF RANGING FROM $0.03 TO $0.115 PER DOLLAR OF PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF OLD DEBENTURES. SEE ANNEX C. SINCE THAT DETERMINATION, THE FINANCIAL CONDITION OF THE COMPANY HAS DETERIORATED. OPINION OF FINANCIAL ADVISOR General. The Company has retained Houlihan, Lokey, Howard & Zukin ("Houlihan"), an independent investment banking concern, to provide it with an opinion as to the fairness of the Proposed Sale from a financial point of view. Houlihan, as part of its investment banking activities, is continually engaged in the valuation of businesses and their securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions, leveraged buyouts, negotiated underwritings, secondary distributions of listed and unlisted securities, private placements, financial restructurings and other financial services. Houlihan had not performed any investment banking or financial advisory services for the Company prior to its retention in July 1995 as financial advisor to the Company for the purposes of the Proposed Sale. Houlihan delivered its written opinion dated October __, 1995, to the Board of Directors of the Company to the effect that, as of such date, the Proposed Sale was fair, from a financial point of view, to the Company and its existing shareholders. In arriving at its opinions, Houlihan, among other things, (i) reviewed the Company's Annual Reports to Shareholders and audited financial statements on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1993 and December 31, 1994, and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the most recent quarters ended March 31 and June 30, 1995, respectively, and preliminary unaudited financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 1995, (ii) reviewed certain internal information, including pro forma financial forecasts and projections prepared by the Company's management, (iii) conducted discussions with members of senior management of the Company concerning its operations, financial condition, future prospects and projected operations and performance, (iv) reviewed the historical market prices and trading volume for the Company's publicly traded stock, (v) reviewed the Settlement Agreement and the exhibits thereto, (vi) reviewed certain other publicly available filings of the Company during the years 1993, 1994 and 1995, (vii) reviewed publicly available financial data for certain companies and transactions which were viewed as similar by Houlihan, and (viii) conducted such other studies and analyses and performed such other investigations and took into account such other matters as Houlihan deemed necessary and appropriate for the purposes of its opinion. The summary of the analysis contained herein does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such written analysis. Houlihan also took into account its general experience in the industry and dealings with similar transactions. In rendering its opinion, Houlihan relied without independent verification upon the accuracy, completeness and fair presentation of all financial and other information provided to it by the Company, or that it otherwise reviewed for purposes of such opinion, and its opinion is conditioned on such information being complete and accurate in all material respects. Houlihan did not independently verify any such information or any underlying assumptions and did not make or obtain any independent appraisals or physical inspection of the assets or liabilities of the Company, nor has it been furnished with any such appraisals. With respect to the financial forecasts, Houlihan assumed that they have been reasonably prepared and reflect the best currently available estimates and judgment of the management of the Company as to the expected future financial performance of the Company. Houlihan's opinion is necessarily based on economic, monetary and market conditions as they exist and can be evaluated as of the date of its opinion. A COPY OF THE OPINION OF HOULIHAN, DATED OCTOBER __, 1995, WHICH SETS FORTH THE ASSUMPTIONS MADE, MATTERS CONSIDERED AND LIMITS ON REVIEW UNDERTAKEN, IS ATTACHED AS ANNEX B TO THIS PROXY STATEMENT AND IS INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE. THE SUMMARY OF THE ____, 1995 OPINION OF HOULIHAN SET FORTH IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT IS QUALIFIED IN ITS ENTIRETY BY REFERENCE TO THE FULL TEXT OF SUCH OPINION. THE COMPANY'S SHAREHOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ SUCH OPINION IN ITS ENTIRETY. Houlihan's opinion is directed only to the fairness from a financial point of view of the consideration to be received by the Company in the Proposed Sale and does not constitute a recommendation to any shareholder as to how such shareholder should vote at the Special Meeting. Furthermore, the opinion does not address the underlying business decision to effect the Proposed Sale. The consideration to be received by the Company in the Proposed Sale was determined through negotiations between representatives of the Company and representatives of Dollar and was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company. (See - "Recommendations of the Board of Directors.") Houlihan was not authorized to solicit, nor did Houlihan solicit, third-party indications of interest for the acquisition of all or any portion of the Company's assets or capital stock. Selection of Houlihan. The Company selected Houlihan as its financial advisor because of Houlihan's national reputation in restructurings and valuations, its knowledge of the car rental industry, its willingness to commit senior people to the rendering of the fairness opinion and its reasonable fees. Methodology. The preparation of a fairness opinion involves various determinations as to the most appropriate and relevant methods of financial analyses and the application of these methods to the particular circumstances. The Company has been advised that the most common analyses used in reviewing the fairness of consideration in the sale of a vehicle rental business are a discounted cash flow analysis, a comparative transaction analysis and a comparable company analysis. All of these analysis were used by Houlihan for its fairness opinion on the Proposed Sale. In requesting the opinion, the Company did not impose any limitations on the scope of the investigations that Houlihan conducted to enable it to deliver its opinion. In arriving at its fairness opinion, Houlihan did not attribute particular weight to any single analysis or factor and made qualitative judgments based on the significance and relevance of each analysis and factor. The matters considered by Houlihan in arriving at its opinion are based upon numerous macroeconomic, operating and financial assumptions and involve the application of complex methodologies and educated judgment. Any estimates incorporated in the analyses performed by Houlihan are not necessarily indicative of actual past or future values or results, which may be significantly more or less favorable than such estimates. The following is a summary of certain financial and comparative analyses performed by Houlihan in connection with its opinion, dated as of October __, 1995, which it discussed with the Board of Directors. The summary of the financial and comparative analyses set forth below does not purport to be a complete description of the analyses employed by Houlihan in reaching its opinion. Houlihan believes that its analyses must be considered as a whole and that selecting portions of its analysis and of the factors considered by it, without considering all such factors and analyses, could create a misleading view of the processes underlying its opinion. Arriving at the fairness opinion is a complete process not necessarily susceptible to partial or summary description. Subject to the foregoing, the following sets forth a summary of the analyses and factors which Houlihan has advised the Company and its Board of Directors were considered by Houlihan in arriving at its fairness opinion. Discounted Cash Flow Analysis: Houlihan performed a discounted cash flow analysis of the projected free cash flows of the Division for the fiscal years ending December 31, 1995 through December 31, 2000. All assumptions, including capital expenditures, utilized in the discounted cash flow analysis were based on projections provided by the Company. Free cash flow represents the after tax operating cash flow available to the Company before debt service (EBITDA less taxes, capital expenditures and changes in working capital). It is utilized in a discounted cash flow analyses because it represents the cash flow from operations available for distribution to debt and equity holders after required investments in working capital and capital expenditures. The range of discount rates chosen in the discounted cash flow analyses was based upon the estimated weighted average cost of capital ("WACC") based on the analysis of the WACC for comparable public companies and analysis of the risks associated with these particular companies and their financial projections as the comparable companies. The range of terminal values chosen was based upon a reasonable estimation of what multiple of EBITDA the Division could be sold for in the future. This range is based upon what other companies in the same industry have been sold for in completed transactions and how other comparable public companies trade as a multiple EBITDA. Because of the Division's historical negative operating results and its negative projected net worth, the discounted cash flow analysis had substantial impact on Houlihan's conclusion with respect to its opinion. Comparison of Comparable Acquisitions: Houlihan analyzed the implied transaction multiples in several selected transactions which it deemed comparable to the Proposed Sale (collectively, the "Selected Transactions"). Houlihan compared transaction values as multiples of the last 12 months of EBITDA, EBIT (EBITDA less depreciation and amortization) and compared these multiples to the multiples implied by the Proposed Sale for the Company. The operating losses of the Division limited the impact of this analysis on Houlihan Lokey's conclusion with respect to its opinion. Comparison of Comparable Companies: Using publicly available information, Houlihan analyzed, among other things, the market values and trading multiples of selected vehicle rental companies, which it deemed comparable to the Division in varying degrees. The analysis involved multiplication of various cash flow measures (primarily EBITDA and EBIT) for the latest twelve months and projected years 1995 and 1996, as well as the Net Book Value of the Division, by risk-adjusted multiples. The multiples were based on those of comparable companies and were adjusted based on comparisons of size, profitability, liquidity, financial leverage, growth and other factors. No company used in the comparable company analyses described above is identical to the Division. Accordingly, as with the comparable acquisition analysis, an analysis of the results of the foregoing is not entirely mathematical; rather, it involves complex considerations and judgements concerning differences in financial and operating characteristics and other factors that could affect public trading value of the comparable companies to which the Division is being compared. The operating losses and negative projected net worth of the Division limited the impact of this analysis on Houlihan Lokey's conclusion with respect to its opinion. Houlihan believes that these analyses support the conclusion that the consideration to be paid by Dollar for the Division pursuant to the Proposed Sale is fair from a financial point of view to the Company and its shareholders. Fees and Reimbursement of Expenses. Pursuant to its engagement letter with Houlihan, the Company paid Houlihan a fee of $37,500 upon execution of the engagement letter, a fee of $37,500 upon execution of the Settlement Agreement and a fee of $50,000 for rendering or being ready to render its fairness opinion (for aggregate fees after rendering or being prepared to render such opinion of $125,000). In addition, the Company has agreed to reimburse Houlihan for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with rendering its opinion and providing services to the Company and to indemnify Houlihan against certain liabilities in connection with its services as financial advisor to the Company, including certain liabilities under the United States federal securities laws. In addition, on October __, 1995 Houlihan rendered an opinion that the consideration to be paid by Dollar for the Division constituted an exchange for "fair equivalent value". Houlihan received a non-refundable fee of $25,000 for this opinion. CERTAIN EFFECTS OF THE PROPOSED SALE The consummation of the Proposed Sale will have certain material effects on the Company and its business and operations. Among the effects are the following: Change in Business and Operations of the Company. The Company has historically been involved in the passenger vehicle rental and automobile dealership businesses. The Company's automobile dealership operations are currently carried out through South Seas. The vehicle rental business is currently carried out directly by the Company. The Proposed Sale will result in the disposition of substantially all of the Company's passenger vehicle rental assets. Upon consummation of the Proposed Sale, the Company will continue to own 100% of the outstanding stock of South Seas through which the Company operates its automobile dealership businesses. The stock of South Seas has been pledged to Dollar to secure certain of the Company's obligations to Dollar and such pledge will continue after the Proposed Sale is consummated. (See - TERMS OF THE PROPOSED SALE; Pledge of Stock of South Seas). Convertible Subordinated Debentures. Pursuant to the Exchange Offer, the Debentureholders are being offered (i) $.50 for each $1.00 in face amount of Debentures tendered, (ii) 0.769505 shares of the Common Stock for each $1.00 in face amount of Debentures tendered and (iii) a pro rata share of the New Debentures in an original face amount of (a) $1,050,000 less (b) the Non- Tendered Debentures, if any, and less (c) the original principal amount of the Net Worth Note, if any. Following consummation of the Transactions, the aggregate principal amount of indebtedness of the Company in respect of the Non-Tendered Debentures, if any, the New Debentures and the Net Worth Note will not exceed $1,050,000. See -- "The Exchange Offer". As a condition to the Closing, the Company must have received either the Minimum Tender and/or consent to the Proposed Sale of Debentureholders holding in the aggregate at least 95% of the face amount of the Debentures or, alternatively, receipt of the Requisite Plan Acceptances. As part of this Exchange Offer, the Company intends to amend the Indenture to provide for limited covenant obligations for the Company thereunder. See -- "The Exchange Offer". In the event the Proposed Sale is effected through the Prepackaged Plan, the Debentureholders would receive (i) a pro rata share of cash consideration of $2,625,000 received by the Company in the Proposed Sale (less the amount of any allowed priority and administrative claims), (ii) 0.769505 shares of the Common Stock for each $1.00 in face amount of Debentures and (iii) a pro rata share of the New Debentures in an original face amount of (a) $1,050,000 less (b) the original principal amount of the Net Worth Note, if any. This consideration would be shared by the Debentureholders pro rata with the holders, if any, of allowed claims of the class to which the Debentures belong. The Prepackaged Plan further contemplates that the class of contingent claimants will be unimpaired by the Prepackaged Plan. The Company believes that, should the Prepackaged Plan be implemented, administrative expenses for fees of attorneys and other professional advisors could exceed $200,000. Following consummation of the Transactions, the aggregate principal amount of indebtedness of the Company in respect of the Non-Tendered Debentures, if any, the New Debentures and the Net Worth Note will not exceed $1,050,000. Bank Debt and Credit Arrangements. The "Liabilities" being assumed by Dollar include the Company's liabilities under the Company's (i) $3,645,000 Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of June 14, 1994, with Bank of Hawaii, (ii) $15,000,000 Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of November 30, 1994, with Finova Capital Corporation (formerly Greyhound Financial Corporation, "Finova"), (iii) $300,000 Amended Loan and Authorization and Agreement, dated as of November 19, 1992, with the U.S. Small Business Administration, (iv) $20,000,000 Loan Agreement, dated as of January 9, 1990, with General Motors Acceptance Corporation, (v) $1,000,000 Term Loan Agreement, as amended, dated as of September 30, 1988, with First Hawaiian Bank (successor by acquisition to First Interstate Bank of Hawaii), and (vi) Mortgage Note executed in favor of Bank of Hawaii and dated as of May 24, 1989. The following amounts were outstanding with respect to the foregoing liabilities as of June 30, 1995: (a) $735,000, (b) $7,996,000, (c) $76,000, (d) $550,000, (e) $416,000 and (f) $162,000. (See -- Section 3 of the Settlement Agreement and the definition of "Liabilities") As of June 30, 1995, the Company was not in compliance with its covenants with the above financial institutions. The Liabilities being assumed by Dollar also include the Company's liabilities to Dollar under the License and various other contractual arrangements with Dollar which as of the Settlement Date shall not, pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, exceed $3,225,000. As a result of the foregoing, following consummation of the Proposed Sale, the Company will have no outstanding bank debt or line of credit. South Seas will have debt with respect to (i) $13,500,000 line of credit with Chrysler Credit Corporation, (ii) $1,000,000 Mortgage bank debt with Bank of Hawaii related to its South Seas Jeep Eagle dealership and (iii) $800,000 Mortgage bank debt with Bank of Hawaii related to its Oahu Chrysler Jeep facility. As of June 30, 1995, outstanding balances for these facilities were $9,258,000, $578,000 and $528,000, respectively. The Company has been notified by Bank of Hawaii that it will extend its $1,000,000 Mortgage bank debt related to the South Seas Jeep Eagle dealership which otherwise would have matured on November 30, 1995 in return for an increase in the applicable interest rate from plus ___% to prime plus 3.5% per annum. Bank of Hawaii has advised the Company that the increase is designed to motivate the Company to seek alternative sources of refinancing for this indebtedness. The Company is pursuing such alternatives. Other future credit arrangements will be reviewed by the Company in light of the capital needs of the Company and South Seas. Severance Arrangements. As part of the liabilities to be retained by the Company following the Proposed Sale, the Company shall retain all employment- related liabilities, accruals or similar obligations of any kind whatsoever as to any employees of the Division not hired by Dollar as of Closing including, without limitation, claims for salary, fringes, unemployment compensation, severance, accrued vacation, accrued leave or any other statutory or other allowances to such employees arising after Closing by reason of the Proposed Sale, together with any unemployment insurance or Hawaii dislocated workers allowance payable to Division employees even if they are hired by Dollar upon the Closing (collectively, the "Retained Employee Liabilities"). In the event of a Prepackaged Plan, the Company believes that all or substantially all of the Retained Employee Liabilities will be priority claims and will be paid in full out of the cash proceeds of the Proposed Sale. The obligation of the Company to close the Proposed Sale is subject to the certain conditions (which may be waived by the Company at Closing), including that the Retained Employee Liabilities shall not equal or exceed Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000). Notwithstanding any provision of the Settlement Agreement to the contrary, for purposes of determining whether the $25,000 limitation for closing purposes has been met or exceeded, the Retained Employee Liabilities will be deemed to relate only to accruals or statutory entitlements as of the Closing, and not future salary or benefits pursuant to contracts or otherwise. Employee Stock Options and ESOP. During 1994, the Company established an incentive stock option plan under which options to purchase up to 200,000 shares of Common Stock may be granted. Under this plan, the option exercise price is equal to 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. Options for 50,000 shares of Common Stock remain outstanding and unexercised under this plan as of December 31, 1994. The unexercised options are subject to anti-dilution protection. The Company's original incentive stock option plan expired on May 3, 1993 and the remaining outstanding options under this original plan expired in September 1995. During 1994, the Company also established a new non-statutory stock option plan under which options to purchase up to 200,000 shares of Common Stock may be granted. Under this plan, the exercise price of any option granted shall not be less than the lesser of 85% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant or 85% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of exercise. The original non-statutory stock option plan terminated on June 20, 1994. No options were outstanding under either plan as December 31, 1994. As of December 31, 1993, the Company had outstanding non-recourse promissory notes totaling $1,139,000 from optionees in connection with the exercise of their options to acquire 929,500 shares of Common Stock. Included in the non-recourse notes, were notes in the aggregate principal amount of $554,000 from current executive officers and/or directors of the Company. Exercise prices on these shares ranged from $1.06 to $2.12 per share. The promissory notes matured on July 11, 1994 on which date the market value of the Company's Common Stock was $.81 per share. No payments were received on these notes, and accordingly, the Company canceled these shares of Common Stock. Proceeds from the exercise of options are credited to Common Stock to the extent of $0.10 per share and the balance credited to additional paid-in capital. Under its non-statutory plan, benefits relating to the excess of quoted market value on the measurement date over the exercise price of options are charged to compensation expense and credited to additional paid-in capital. Rights of Shareholders and Trading in Securities. The Transactions will result in the issuance of an amount of previously authorized shares of Common Stock for the Debentures resulting in the Debentureholders who tender pursuant to the Exchange Offer receiving up to 30% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company, on a fully-diluted basis, following consummation of the Transactions. If the Minimum Tender is not obtained and the Transactions are consummated pursuant to the Prepackaged Plan, the Debentureholders will receive 30% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company, on a fully-diluted basis. The Proposed Sale will result in the issuance of an amount of previously authorized shares of Common Stock to Dollar resulting in Dollar receiving 10% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company, on a fully-diluted basis, following consummation of the Transactions. The Company's Common Stock consists of 50,000,000 authorized shares, no par value, of which 8,079,800 shares are currently outstanding. See - -- "Description of Common Stock". As a result of these issuances of previously authorized stock, the existing shareholders' effective voting power and equity ownership of the Company will be diluted. To the extent the Company prevails in retaining its listing in accordance with the conditions imposed by the NASDAQ pursuant to the NASDAQ Hearing, the Common Stock will continue to be listed with the NASDAQ. The Company is unable to predict potential effects of the Transactions, including the Proposed Sale, on stock appreciation, trading activity and the market price of the Common Stock. Federal Income Tax Consequences. The Proposed Sale and the exchange of the Debentures pursuant to the Exchange Offer will be taxable events for the Company for both Federal and state income tax purposes. As of December 31, 1994, the Company had approximately $10,000,000 in federal net operating loss carryforwards and approximately $8,900,000 in state net operating loss carryforwards available to offset a gain on the Proposed Sale and the exchange of the Debentures pursuant to the Exchange Offer. Because the Company will be able to apply its net operating loss carryforwards, there should be no substantial income tax consequences. The Company may have some Federal alternative minimum tax exposure due to the Proposed Sale as a result of limitations on the use of Federal net operating loss carryforwards for alternative minimum tax purposes. However, the amount of the possible Federal alternative minimum tax due to the Proposed Sale is dependent on what other income or loss is recognized in 1995, including the amount, if any, of COD Income (as defined below). The Proposed Sale will not result in any tax consequences to the shareholders of the Company other than to those shareholders who are Debentureholders who elect to exchange their Debentures pursuant to the Exchange Offer. The Exchange Offer may result in cancellation of indebtedness income ("COD Income") to the Company. At this time, the amount of the COD Income which will be attributed to the Company, if any, as a result of the Exchange Offer is not clear nor is it clear how much, if any, of the Company's net operating loss carryforwards will be available to offset COD Income, if any. No COD income should result to the Company under the Prepackaged Plan because any discharge of indebtedness occurring in a case under Title 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. However, to the extent COD income which would otherwise result does not occur because discharge occurs in a case under Title 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Company will be required to reduce the amount of its tax attributes (including, but not limited to, net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards) available for use for future tax years. At this time, the amount of COD income that would result but for the discharge of indebtedness occurring in a case under Title 11 of the Bankruptcy Code is not clear, nor is it clear how much, if any, of the Company's tax attributes will be available for use in future tax years. Regardless of whether the Proposed Sale is effected through the Exchange Offer or the Prepackaged Plan, the Company's ability to utilize its net operating losses and other tax attributes on a going forward basis may be significantly limited by the operation of Section 382 and related provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. However, the potential extent of such limitations is not clear at this time. Accounting Treatment. The Proposed Sale will be accounted for as a sale of certain assets and the transfer of certain liabilities. Upon the consummation thereof, the excess of the sum of the consideration received by the Company and the liabilities assumed by Dollar over the sum of the book value of the assets sold, the amount of the Net Worth Note, if any, and the Common Stock issued to Dollar, will be recognized as an extraordinary gain on the Company's books. The Exchange Offer will be accounted for as a retirement of the Company's outstanding debt and issuance of additional shares of Common Stock and, to the extent issued, the issuance of New Debentures. Upon the consummation thereof, the excess of the face value of Debentures exchanged over the fair value of the consideration paid (Common Stock plus cash plus New Debentures, if any) by the Company will be recognized as a gain on the Company's books. Consummation of the Prepackaged Plan will be similarly accounted for as a retirement of the Company's outstanding debt and issuance of additional shares of Common Stock and, to the extent issued, the issuance of New Debentures. Upon the consummation thereof, the excess of the face value of Debentures exchanged over the fair value of the consideration paid (Common Stock plus New Debentures, if any, plus cash less allowed administrative and priority claims) by the Company will be recognized as a gain on the Company's books. Governmental and Regulatory Approvals. The Proposed Sale is subject to applicable antitrust laws and review by the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (the"Antitrust Division") and the Federal Trade Commission (the "FTC"). Under the provisions of the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the "HSR Act"), the Proposed Sale may not be consummated until the expiration of a 30 calendar day waiting period. The Company filed notification reports, together with requests for early termination of the waiting period, with the Antitrust Division and the FTC under the HSR Act on September 29, 1995. The FTC granted early termination of the waiting period on October 12, 1995. In connection with the Proposed Sale, the Company is required to comply with the provisions of the Hawaii Dislocated Workers Act (the "DWA"). The DWA requires the Company to provide written notice of the Proposed Sale to each of its employees and to the Director of the Hawaii Department of Labor and Industrial Relations (the "DLIR") at least 45 days prior to its occurrence (the "DWA Notice"). The Company provided the DWA Notice to its employees and the DLIR on August 31, 1995. Under Hawaii law, the Company is also required to make a report of the Proposed Sale (the "Bulk Sales Report") to the Hawaii Department of Taxation not later than 10 days after the transfer of the Assets has occurred. The Company intends to file the Bulk Sales Report with the Hawaii Department of Taxation immediately prior to the transfer of the Assets to Dollar. The Company is aware of no other governmental or regulatory approvals required for the consummation of the Proposed Sale, other than compliance with applicable securities laws. TERMS OF THE PROPOSED SALE The detailed terms and conditions of the Proposed Sale are contained in the Settlement Agreement, which together with Exhibits B (Agreed Practices), H (Specified Excluded Assets of Seller), L (Specified Retained Liabilities of Seller), Q (Stock Pledge Agreement) and X (Notice of Modification of Existing Franchise) thereto together with the First through Sixth Amendments thereto, is attached hereto as Annex A and made a part of this Proxy Statement. THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION SETS FORTH A DESCRIPTION OF CERTAIN MATERIAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND IS QUALIFIED BY THE MORE COMPLETE INFORMATION SET FORTH IN THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT. THE COMPANY'S SHAREHOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT IN ITS ENTIRETY. Section references in the following discussion refer to the corresponding section of the Settlement Agreement. PRINCIPAL TRANSACTIONS Purchase and Sale. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company shall issue to Dollar 10% of the Common Stock on a fully-diluted basis (as measured assuming consummation of the Transactions) and shall sell to Dollar substantially all of the Company's assets relating to or used in operation of the Division. (See Section 3(a) and the definition of Assets in Section 1.) For the year ended December 31, 1994 and the six months ended June 30, 1995, the Division generated net losses of $897,000 and $1,916,000, respectively, and the Company had net losses of $1,427,461 and $1,977,615, respectively. (See -- Selected Financial Information.) The Division constituted approximately 90% and 71% of the total assets of the Company on a book value basis as of December 31, 1994 and June 30, 1995, respectively. The Settlement Agreement provides for the sale by the Company to Dollar of the assets of the Company which comprise the Division for an aggregate purchase price equal to (i) $2,625,000 in cash, (ii) the assumption by Dollar of the Liabilities, as more fully described in this Proxy Statement. In addition, if Dollar elects to close the Proposed Sale, the Company may elect to issue and Dollar shall accept the Net Worth Note in a principal amount not to exceed $1,050,000, less the amount of Non-Tendered Debentures, if any, and less the amount of New Debentures, to offset, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, shortfalls in the Unaudited Net Worth from the Minimum Net Worth Requirement. So long as the conditions precedent are met on or before November 30, 1995, Dollar and the Company have agreed that the Closing shall be deemed to have occurred on the Settlement Date (except for the effect of representations and warranties, as well as indemnities, which are extended to the actual date of Closing). Following consummation of the Transactions, the aggregate principal amount of indebtedness of the Company in respect of the Non-Tendered Debentures, if any, the New Debentures and the Net Worth Note will not exceed $1,050,000. The cash proceeds, less any amounts required to pay allowed priority and administrative claims under the Prepackaged Plan (if any), will be paid to an escrow agent at the Closing. (See -- Closing). The Company believes that, should the Prepackaged Plan be implemented, administrative expenses for fees of attorneys and other professional advisors could exceed $200,000. (See Section 4 and TERMS OF THE PROPOSED SALE). The Company will retain liability for all "Retained Liabilities". Retained Liabilities is defined in the Settlement Agreement and includes, without limitation, (a) the Debentures; (b) any liabilities, claims or obligations of the Company, known or unknown, fixed or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, accrued or unaccrued, arising or that may arise from any asserted or unasserted claims, except (1) the Liabilities which are set forth on the Unaudited Balance Sheet, (2) the specified liabilities of the Company to be listed on Exhibit I to the Settlement Agreement, which will be updated at the Closing and (3) the specified liabilities on Exhibit J to the Settlement Agreement, describing Off-balance Sheet Liabilities, which will likewise be updated at the Closing; (c) all claims, liabilities or obligations of South Seas; (d) all claims, liabilities or obligations of the Company relating to South Seas; (e) liabilities of the Company to South Seas or any other officer, director, shareholder or affiliate of the Company; (f) liabilities relating to or arising from or that constitute liens against assets not sold to Dollar; (g) any and all potential claims against the Company related to a dispute between the Company and Hyundai Motor America regarding 700 1995 Hyundai Elantras ordered from Hyundai Motor America which claims have been asserted by Hyundai to be less than $113,000 as of September 21, 1995; (h) any and all claims against the Company related to the Maui base yard construction dispute with Tinsmith, Inc. which the Company believes have been settled; (i) any employment-related liabilities, accruals or obligations of any kind whatsoever as to any employees of the Company (or South Seas) not hired by Dollar including, without limitation, claims for salary, fringes, unemployment compensation, severance, accrued vacation, accrued leave or any other statutory or other allowances to such employees arising after Closing by reason of the contemplated transactions; (j) any unemployment insurance or Hawaii dislocated worker's allowance payable to the Company's employees even if they are hired by Dollar upon Closing; (k) any and all claims against the Company for employment practices including terminations before Closing and (l) any claims or obligations for punitive and/or exemplary damages or for civil or criminal or regulatory fines or penalties for the period on or before the actual date of the Closing. (See Section 1 of the Settlement Agreement for definition of "Off-balance Sheet Liabilities.") The following assets will be sold by the Company to Dollar as part of the Proposed Sale (the "Assets"): all of the Company's assets relating to or used in operation of the Division and all books and records in any form pertaining thereto (excluding the Excluded Assets, which are to be retained by Company). The following assets (the "Excluded Assets") will be retained by the Company and not sold to Dollar: any assets, properties or rights of Company not set forth in the Unaudited Balance Sheet, the stock of South Seas, and all other assets of Company not relating to and not used in the business of the Division, and the specified assets of Company listed on Exhibit H to the Settlement Agreement. The aggregate consideration being paid by Dollar cannot be presently determined because in differences between Dollar and the Company in the methodologies for valuing the assets being transferred, the liabilities being assumed and the claims being released. The Company believes that the aggregate consideration being paid is in a range between $7,000,000 to $12,000,000. Common Stock. As part of the Proposed Sale, Dollar will receive an amount of the previously authorized Common Stock of the Company resulting in Dollar owning 10% of the Common Stock, on a fully-diluted basis, at consummation of the Transactions, and will receive one demand registration right exercisable during the period beginning eighteen (18) months after the date of Dollar's receipt of the Company's Common Stock pursuant to the Transactions and ending five years after such date. Any such demand would require a shelf registration of 18 months. Dollar is also to receive unlimited incidental or "piggyback" registration rights if the Company files a registration statement. Although the Company does not anticipate participating in a "going-private" transaction, Dollar will have a right to put its Common Stock to the Company for the average trading price of the Common Stock for the immediately preceding 30 day period in the event the Company's status changes from being a company subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Noncompetition Agreements. At the Closing, (i) the Company shall execute and deliver a noncompetition agreement, whereby the Company shall obligate itself not to compete with or solicit against Dollar in accordance therewith for a period of five (5) years from the date thereof; and (ii) the Company shall cause Alan Robin, President, Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, to execute and deliver a noncompetition agreement, whereby Alan Robin shall obligate himself not to compete with or solicit against Dollar in accordance therewith for a period of thirty (30) months from the date of Closing. Settlement of Claims. At Closing, (i) the Company shall execute and deliver a general release; (ii) the Company shall cause Alan Robin, President, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, to execute and deliver a general release; (iii) Dollar shall execute and deliver a general release; (iv) South Seas shall execute and deliver a general release; and (v) the Company, Dollar and if necessary, other affiliates thereof named in litigation, shall execute a dismissal agreement; provided that the general releases executed by the parties shall not affect their rights with respect to obligations surviving Closing under the Settlement Agreement and related documents. The Company and Dollar respectively undertake to cause any such other necessary parties who are their affiliates to execute and deliver a dismissal agreement with respect to the pending cases (hereinafter defined). The various releases constitute general releases of all claims which Dollar has against the Company, Alan Robin or South Seas or which any of such parties have against Dollar or certain of its affiliates. The dismissal agreements to be executed by the parties constitute agreements by Dollar and the Company for the filing of stipulations for dismissal with prejudice in the following litigation: Pacific International Services Corp. v. Chrysler Corporation, Pentastar Transportation Group, Dollar Systems, Inc., and Gary L. Paxton, in the United States District Court for the District of Hawaii, Case No. 9500445-SPK and Dollar Systems Inc. v Pacific International Services Corp., in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Oklahoma, Case No. 95-C-488B (collectively, the "Pending Cases"). The Pending Cases have resulted, in part, from the failure of Dollar and the Company to agree upon the final documentation with respect to the 1995 Assistance Commitment. Pending further negotiations, the Company withheld certain payments asserted by Dollar to be owing to Dollar under the License Agreement. Dollar filed a legal action in U.S. District Court to compel the Company to execute the documentation proposed by Dollar to embody its understanding of the 1995 Assistance Commitment. Shortly thereafter, Dollar sent the Company notices purporting to terminate the License Agreement and the Master Lease Agreement dated October 22, 1993 between Dollar and the Company (the "Master Lease Agreement"). The Company subsequently commenced its own legal action against Dollar for damages and injunctive relief based on violations of the License Agreement and Hawaii law which had been the subject of extensive discussions between the Company and Dollar. Subsequent discussions led to execution of a standstill agreement, later amended and extended, and, finally to negotiation of the Settlement Agreement. The parties have agreed to suspend all litigation without prejudice but may choose to recommence proceedings should the Transactions fail to close. In addition, under the Settlement Agreement the Company and Dollar agreed to certain assistance for the Company during the period prior to the Closing. Specifically, Dollar agreed to permanently waive and forgive certain system fees due under the License Agreement accruing from June 1, 1995 to the earlier of (i) the termination of the Settlement Agreement, (ii) the Settlement Date and (iii) the accrual of an aggregate amount of such waived fees in excess of $300,000. Dollar has further agreed to assume al liabilities of the Division arising after the Settlement Date (including amounts owing to Dollar) which arise in the ordinary course of business and which are otherwise not in violation of the Company's covenants and representations and warranties in the Settlement Agreement. Dollar also agreed that the extension by the Company of certain of its trade payables and other obligations for periods up to 90 days beyond their respective due dates would not constitute a default by the Company of its obligation under the Settlement Agreement to conduct its business in the ordinary course. Consulting Agreement. At the Closing, Alan Robin will agree to consult with Dollar up to twenty hours per month for the first three months after the Closing for no compensation. In the event Dollar, in its sole discretion, determines that it would like Mr. Robin to continue thereafter on a consulting basis, he will be paid $50,000 per year as a retainer and will commit up to 20 hours per month. Said agreement will be cancelable on an annual basis. STANDSTILL AGREEMENT Concurrent with the execution of the Settlement Agreement, the Company and Dollar executed a Standstill Agreement (the "Standstill Agreement"). Pursuant to the Standstill Agreement, Dollar and the Company have agreed (i) to cease and desist from any further litigation activities against one another, including but not limited to the filing of additional cases, as well as motions or other pleadings in the Pending Cases, until November 30, 1995 subject to early termination by either party upon written notice to the other party (the "Standstill Period"), (ii) make joint application to the courts in which the Pending Cases are filed for orders extending all then effective deadlines for the filing of pleadings for a period not less than the Standstill Period and (iii) extend the termination dates for certain agreements to the date 24 hours after the end of the Standstill Period. Failure to close the Transactions, including the Proposed Sale, may mean reinstitution of the Pending Cases. PLEDGE OF STOCK OF SOUTH SEAS Contemporaneously with the execution of the Settlement Agreement, the Company executed and delivered a Stock Pledge Agreement (as amended, the "Stock Pledge Agreement"), pledging as a first and preferred lien and without any junior liens, one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding capital stock of South Seas to secure the following: (i) Payments under the Master Lease Agreement (subject to customary offsets but none accruing on or before April 30, 1995 except as otherwise specifically provided in the Settlement Agreement) accruing or becoming due and payable from and after May 1, 1995 until the earlier of the Closing or termination of the Settlement Agreement; (ii) The payment of all other obligations of the Company to Dollar accruing or becoming due and payable from and after May 1, 1995 until the earlier of the Closing or termination of the Settlement Agreement; (iii) Dollar's money damages and incidental, out-of-pocket losses as awarded by the final, non-appealable order of a court for failure or refusal to close the Settlement Agreement after satisfaction (or waiver by the party entitled to the satisfaction) of all conditions precedent to the obligation of both parties to the Closing; and (iv) Claims asserted by Dollar under the Settlement Agreement for breaches of indemnity obligations (including, without limitation, indemnities against breaches of representations and warranties as to the fair presentation in all material respects of the Unaudited Balance Sheet) within one (1) year of the closing of the Transactions (the "Secured Indemnity Period"). Unless Dollar shall have declared a breach of the obligations secured by the South Seas stock pledge within one year after the Closing, the South Seas stock pledge shall terminate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a voluntary or involuntary petition for relief under the Bankruptcy Code is filed by or against the Company on or before the 367th day after the Closing, the pledge and security interest contemplated in the South Seas stock pledge shall not lapse. If Dollar shall have declared a breach of the obligations secured by the South Seas stock pledge within such one year period, or if such a petition for relief is filed by or against the Company within such 367-day period, the pledge and security interest contemplated by the South Seas stock pledge shall remain in full force and effect, and the agent described in the following paragraph shall continue to hold the South Seas stock. In the event of the Company's bankruptcy, as described in this paragraph, the pledge and security interest contemplated herein shall remain in full force and effect until (i) all breaches of indemnity obligations described in clause (iv) above, (if any) are resolved and fully satisfied; and (ii) the earlier to occur of (x) entry of a final order waiving and releasing all claims, rights and causes of action against Dollar, (including, without limitation, claims, rights and causes of action assertable against Buyer arising under Chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code), or (y) expiration of all statutes of limitation within which claims, rights and causes of action assertable against Dollar under Chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code must be commenced. (See -- Section 7(c)). The pledge and security interest in the South Seas stock, to the extent securing the obligations described in clauses (i) and (ii) above, shall remain perfected through the times provided therein; provided, however, Dollar has agreed to take no action to foreclose its security in respect of said obligations owed it accruing after September 30, 1995 prior to the termination of the Settlement Agreement, and provided further, that upon Closing, the pledge and security interest insofar as relating to these obligations, as well as the obligations described in clause (iii) above, shall lapse. Pursuant to the Agency Agreement executed on July 18, 1995 (the "Agency Agreement"), the South Seas stock is held by Liberty Bank and Trust Company of Tulsa, N.A., as agent, to perfect Dollar's lien. The Company's remaining operations following consummation of the Proposed Sale will be conducted through South Seas. DUE DILIGENCE PERIOD The Company has agreed from and after the date of the Settlement Agreement until the Closing to permit Dollar and its representatives full access to the Company's operations, and business and financial records, contracts and prospects files and any and all other documentation to permit Dollar to complete its due diligence procedures and review. In addition, the Company and Dollar have agreed that Dollar shall have through the Closing to complete its due diligence (the "Due Diligence Period"). Dollar has the right at any time prior to the Closing to terminate the Settlement Agreement for any reason or no reason at all, as well as other rights of termination at other times. (See TERMS OF THE PROPOSED SALE - Termination.) DEBENTURES The Company has agreed to seek the tender of the Debentures from, and/or the consent to the Proposed Sale of, the Debentureholders owning Debentures constituting at least 95% in face amount of the outstanding Debentures to the Proposed Sale pursuant to the Exchange Offer. (See Section 9(l).) If the Exchange Offer is consummated, each tendering Debentureholder will receive a pro rata share of the Exchange Consideration. (See -- The Exchange Offer) The Company has also agreed to solicit the consent of the Debentureholders to the Prepackaged Plan. In the event the Proposed Sale is effected through a Prepackaged Plan, each Debentureholder will receive a share of the Plan Consideration which will be shared pro rata with the holders, if any, of allowed claims which are of the same class to which the Debentures belong. The Company is not presently aware of any such creditors. The Company believes that, should the Prepackaged Plan be implemented, administrative expenses for fees of attorneys and other professional advisors could exceed $200,000. (See -- The Prepackaged Plan) EMPLOYEES The Company has agreed, on and after the date of the Settlement Agreement to the Closing, to permit Dollar to interview certain employees of the Company. The Company has further agreed to permit Dollar to hire any one or more of such employees on terms that are mutually acceptable between Dollar and each such employee. Dollar and the Company have agreed that it is not a condition of the Closing that Dollar successfully negotiate the employment of any such employee. In the event Dollar elects not to retain the services of any employee of the Company, the Company shall specifically retain as a retained liability, and Dollar does not assume, any liability for accrued salary, vacation leave, sick leave, unpaid fringes, severance, Hawaii Dislocated Workers Act allowance or any other liability whatsoever due in respect of any such employee. (See Section 19(d)(1).) Subject to satisfaction of Dollar's hiring policies, Dollar has indicated that it intends to hire substantially all of the Division's employees. In addition, Dollar has agreed to assume the remaining term of the Company's employment commitment to Sirio Maggiacomo which ends December 31, 1997, which term shall be honored by Dollar unless grounds exist for termination with cause in which event Dollar will be excused from further obligation; provided, however, Dollar's total obligation to accept such commitment shall not be less than $140,000 per year as to base salary and bonus and Dollar's standard benefits package offered to its employees. Upon the Closing, the Company and Mr. Maggiacomo shall enter into an agreement terminating his existing Employment Agreement with the Company entered into effective January 1, 1995, and affirming he has no claim against Dollar pursuant thereto or otherwise except to the extent specifically provided in the Settlement Agreement. (See Section 19(d)(1)(i).) REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES The Company and Dollar have made various representations and warranties of the kind customary in agreements for the sale of vehicle leasing assets, including, among other things, valid existence and good standing of their respective businesses and the satisfaction of legal requirements for the Proposed Sale. The Company has represented and warranted to Dollar concerning, among other matters: (i) the good standing of the Corporation under the laws of its state of incorporation, its corporate power to own its properties and carry on its businesses as currently conducted and its qualification as a foreign corporation in certain jurisdictions, (ii) the title of the Company to its properties and assets, (iii) the absence of any conflict between the Settlement Agreement and the charter or by-laws of the Company, any material agreement to which the Company is a party or is bound and any decree, order or judgment, statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company, (iv) the completeness and accuracy of documents, exhibits and other disclosures made to Dollar, (v) the fair presentation in all material respects of certain audited financial statements of the Unaudited Balance Sheet (including the calculation of the Unaudited Net Worth), (vi) the absence of material undisclosed liabilities, (vii) the compliance by the Company with all applicable laws and regulations, (viii) the absence of undisclosed material litigation, (ix) the filing of all required federal, state and local tax returns and payment of or provision for taxes, (x) the absence of default in certain material contracts, (xi) the absence of certain material events subsequent to December 31, 1994 and (xii) the status of certain employee benefit plans.

The Company's obligation to consummate the Proposed Sale is subject to additional conditions, including, without limitation, the approval of the Proposed Sale by the shareholders of the Company and certain other conditions. (See Section 10.) Dollar's obligation to consummate the Proposed Sale is subject to additional conditions, including, without limitation, receipt by the Company of all requisite third party consents (including, without limitation, consents from the Company's third-party lenders, lessors and concession grantors); delivery by the Company of tax clearance certificates from the State of Hawaii and other relevant taxing authorities (if any); the Company having received either the Minimum Tender or the Requisite Plan Acceptances; there having been no action, proceeding, investigation, regulation or litigation instituted, proposed or threatened before any court, governmental agency or legislative body which would, in the reasonable judgment of Dollar have a materially adverse effect on the Assets, the Liabilities or the Division, taken as a whole; no previously undisclosed off-balance sheet liability or liabilities relating to the Division equalling or in excess of $250,000 in the aggregate shall occur, exist or accrue; the Company's total debt due and payable to Dollar shall not exceed $3,225,000; and the Division's Unaudited Net Worth, determined in accordance with the Agreed Practices identified on Exhibit B to the Settlement Agreement, shall not be more negative than the Minimum Net Worth Requirement, provided that if Dollar elects to close the Proposed Sale at its option the Company may elect to issue and Dollar shall accept the Net Worth Note, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $1,050,000 (less the sum of Non-Tendered Debentures, if any, plus the New Debentures, if any), to Dollar to offset on a dollar-for- dollar basis shortfalls in the Unaudited Net Worth from the Minimum Net Worth Requirement. (See Sections 4(c) and 9.) Following consummation of the Transactions, the aggregate principal amount of indebtedness of the Company in respect of the Non-Tendered Debentures, if any, the New Debentures and the Net Worth Note will not exceed $1,050,000. In addition to these closing conditions, the Company has agreed that it shall not (i) have prepaid professional fees as of the Settlement Date which when added to payments by the Company or professional fees made from the cash of the Division after the Settlement Date would exceed $185,000 in the aggregate and (ii) pay any Retained Liability from cash of the Division after the Settlement Date, other than the professional fees described in clause (i) (subject to the $185,000 cap) and other than certain potential excise taxes which are anticipated to be payable, if at all, on or before Closing. In order for the Prepackaged Plan to be confirmed, the requirements of Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code must be met including the receipt of the Requisite Plan Acceptances. See -- "The Prepackaged Plan". CLOSING The Closing will occur at the offices of Torkildson, Katz, Jossem, Fonseca, Jaffe, Moore & Hetherington, Honolulu, Hawaii, on November 15, 1995, or at such other place and time as soon thereafter as may be mutually agreed between the Company and Dollar in writing, provided that in no event shall the date of the Closing be extended past November 30, 1995 without the mutual consent of Dollar and the Company. Upon satisfaction of conditions to the Closing, including requisite consents of the Company's shareholders and the Debentureholders (to either the Exchange Offer or the Prepackaged Plan), the Closing will be consummated with the cash payment of $2,625,000 being held in escrow pending the outcome of the Exchange Offer and the consent solicitation for the Prepackaged Plan; provided that the escrowed funds will be distributed following the earliest of (i) receipt of written instructions from Dollar and the Company to do so; or (ii) a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction instructing the escrow agent to pay particular portions of the escrowed funds to a particular party or particular parties. Liberty Bank and Trust Company of Tulsa, N.A. has agreed to act as escrow agent for Dollar and the Company. Dollar and the Company have agreed that the Closing shall be deemed to have occurred on the Settlement Date. (See Section 11.) POST-CLOSING BALANCE SHEET REVIEW Within sixty (60) days of the Closing, Dollar shall, at its sole expense, have prepared and delivered a final audited balance sheet (the "Final Balance Sheet"), reflecting the Assets and Liabilities transferred to Dollar at the Closing and determined as of the Settlement Date. The Final Balance Sheet shall contain a calculation of the net worth (the "Final Net Worth") of the assets and liabilities of the Division transferred to, and assumed by, Dollar, determined as of the Settlement Date. Both the Unaudited Balance Sheet and the Final Balance Sheet, and the respective assets and liabilities reflected thereon, shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") applied on a basis consistent with that of the audited financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 1994, reported on by Price Waterhouse (such principles are referred to as "GAAP Consistently Applied"). Where there are alternative principles under GAAP, the principles to be used shall be those consistently used by the Company in preparing its said audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 1994, assuming such principles are acceptable under GAAP. The application of the GAAP Consistently Applied standard to the Unaudited Balance Sheet and to the Final Balance Sheet shall be subject to modification or clarification in accordance with the Agreed Practices. Following receipt of the Final Balance Sheet, together with a draft independent auditors' report from Deloitte & Touche, the Company will have fifteen (15) days to notify Dollar whether it agrees or disagrees with Dollar's calculation of any negative or downward adjustment to the Unaudited Net Worth. This notification shall state the basis of the Company's disagreement, including its calculation of the Final Net Worth. If the Company and Dollar are unable to resolve their disagreements regarding the Unaudited Balance Sheet and the Final Balance Sheet, they shall refer such disagreement to Arthur Andersen & Company, or such other nationally recognized independent accounting firm mutually selected by the Company and Dollar (the "Deciding Accountant"). The Deciding Accountant shall render a final determination of the Final Net Worth within thirty (30) days after such disagreement is referred to the Deciding Accountant and shall be binding on the Company and Dollar. In lieu of conducting an audit and presenting the Final Balance Sheet, Dollar may elect to perform or have performed on its behalf certain procedures at its sole discretion to determine that the Unaudited Balance Sheet has been fairly presented in accordance with GAAP Consistently Applied as modified or clarified by the Agreed Practices and that such other financial information disclosed in the exhibits and schedules to the Settlement Agreement has also been fairly presented (the "Reported Information"). If Dollar elects to perform such procedures, it shall conduct the procedures within the same time periods specified for the final Balance Sheet. Likewise, Dollar will, if it disagrees with the Reported Information, furnish a letter with adequate supporting documentation to the Company, and respond to the Company's inquiries, all in the same time periods prescribed in the review process for the Final Balance Sheet. If necessary, the Deciding Accountant will act to finalize any discrepancies in the Reported Information to assure the same are fairly presented pursuant to the standards noted above. INDEMNIFICATION The Company has agreed to indemnify, defend and hold Dollar harmless from, against and in respect of any Loss incurred or suffered by Dollar: (a) with respect to any of the Company's contracts, obligations, agreements or liabilities not assumed by Dollar under the Settlement Agreement including, without limitation, any Retained Liabilities; (b) with respect to any Liability to the extent that such Loss arose from or was the result of any situation or set of facts, the existence of which would cause there to be a breach of a warranty, representation, covenant or agreement by the Company under the Settlement Agreement or under any Seller Delivered Agreement; (c) with respect to any litigation, claim or proceeding arising out of the Company's operations prior to Closing not constituting a Liability, Off-balance Sheet Liability or not listed on Schedule 15(j) to the Settlement Agreement; (d) with respect to all claims, controversies, legal actions and proceedings arising out of the Company's operations prior to Closing brought by or on behalf of any creditor, agent, employee or former employee of the Company or any other third party or governmental agency that do not constitute Liabilities; (e) with respect to any income, sales, payroll, excise, surcharge or other tax liabilities of the Company whatsoever not constituting a Liability or not disclosed in writing on Schedule 15(c) to the Settlement Agreement (including, without limitation, assessments, additions to taxes, deficiencies, penalties and interest and the costs and expenses relating to examinations or audits of the taxes of the Company); (f) with respect to any bulk sales, fraudulent conveyance or similar laws or any other laws creating a lien or other adverse interest in, upon or with respect to the Assets by reason of the transactions contemplated by the Settlement Agreement, provided that the foregoing indemnity shall not be applicable to claims arising out of Liabilities which have been assumed; (g) with respect to any dispute among the Company, its shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, Affiliates and Debenture holders; (h) for any claim asserted against Dollar with respect to any disputes regarding goods or services which were provided or were to be provided by the Company prior to Closing not constituting a Liability, Off- balance Sheet Liability or not listed on Schedule 15(j) to the Settlement Agreement; (i) with respect to any claim by any governmental agency arising from actions or failures to act of the Company; (j) with respect to any taxes, costs, fees or expenses that the Settlement Agreement provides are to be paid or otherwise borne by the Company; (k) with respect to operations of the Company's business prior to Closing, except for the Liabilities; (l) with respect to any claim for successor liability or similar theory which would, pursuant to applicable law, impose liability on Dollar for any aspects of the Company's operations before Closing, except to the extent the same expressly constitutes a Liability under the Settlement Agreement; (m) to the extent the bankruptcy case contemplated by the Prepackaged Plan shall have been commenced, (i) claims by the Company or others for tax liabilities arising prior to or after the commencement of such case, (ii) liability for administrative expenses contemplated by Bankruptcy Code Section 503(b) alleged to be payable to any person or entity related in any way to the Company or the bankruptcy case, whether or not such administrative expenses are or become an allowed administrative expense, (iii) from the Company altering or amending the terms of the Settlement Agreement, the Exchange Offer, the Prepackaged Plan or the disclosure statement prepared as part of the Prepackaged Plan without Dollar's consent, either before or after confirmation of the Prepackaged Plan by the bankruptcy court, to the extent such alteration or amendment impairs or detracts from the benefits to be derived thereunder by Dollar, directly or indirectly, and (iv) recovery (or the alleged right to recover) against Dollar under any claim, right or cause of action whatsoever asserted by the Company (in its own right or as debtor in possession under the bankruptcy case), or by any trustee appointed therein pursuant to Bankruptcy Code Section 1104, or by any of the Company's shareholders or creditors, including, without limitation, claims, rights and causes of action arising under Chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code or under the Uniform Fraudulent Transfers Act or similar statutes, in each case including costs and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by Dollar in defending against such matters and in enforcing the terms of such agreements; and (n) without limiting, or being in any manner limited by, the foregoing, as a result of misrepresentation, breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of the Company under the Settlement Agreement or any Seller Delivered Agreement. (See Section 20(b).) Dollar has agreed to indemnify, defend and hold the Company harmless from, against and in respect of any Loss incurred or suffered by the Company: (a) with respect to any Liability except to the extent that such Loss arose from or was the result of any situation or set of facts in existence as of the Closing, the existence of which would cause there to be a breach of a warranty, representation, covenant or agreement by the Company under the Settlement Agreement or the Seller Delivered Agreements; (b) With respect to Dollar's operation of the Division after Closing, except for the Retained Liabilities and except to the extent that any such Loss arose from or was the result of any situation or set of facts in existence on the Closing, the existence of which would cause there to be a breach of a warranty, representation, covenant or agreement by the Company of the Proposed Sale under the Settlement Agreement or the Seller Delivered Agreements; and (c) without limiting or being in any manner limited by the foregoing, as a result of a misrepresentation, breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of Dollar under the Settlement Agreement or the Buyer Delivered Documents. For purposes of the Settlement Agreement, "Loss" means any liability, loss, cost, claim, damage, injury, expense or payment, including without limitation the related actual fees and expenses of attorneys, consultants and other experts (see Section 20(a)); "Seller Delivered Agreements" means all agreements, certificates, instruments and documents executed and delivered (or to be executed and delivered) by the Company or its officers pursuant to the Settlement Agreement (see Section 15(a)(2)); and "Buyer Delivered Documents" means all agreements, certificates, instruments and documents executed and delivered (or to be executed and delivered) by Dollar or its officers pursuant to the Settlement Agreement (see Section 16(a)(2).) The indemnification obligations of the Company and Dollar under the Settlement Agreement shall be extinguished unless the party claiming the right to be indemnified notifies the indemnitor of facts which it thinks are the basis for indemnification hereunder on or before the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no time deadline shall apply to any willful or intentional breach of or failure to comply with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in the Settlement Agreement. (See Section 20(e)(1).) The indemnification obligations of the Company under the Settlement Agreement shall be secured for a period of one (1) year from the date of the Closing by the pledge of the stock of South Seas. Neither the Company nor South Seas shall have any liability whatsoever under the indemnification provisions of the Settlement Agreement unless and until, and only to the extent that, the total Losses for which the Company would otherwise be liable, exceed One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000) in the aggregate and then such liability shall be for the full amount of such Losses in excess of $150,000; provided, however, that the minimum Loss specified herein shall not apply to any willful or intentional breach of or failure to comply with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in the Settlement Agreement or the Seller Delivered Agreements or Buyer Delivered Documents, respectively, nor as to any Loss sustained by Dollar relating to any Retained Liabilities. (See Section 20(e)(2).) At the Closing, South Seas will execute and deliver a South Seas Commitment Agreement (the "South Seas Commitment Agreement") pursuant to which South Seas will agree to be jointly and severally liable to Dollar for claims made against the Company pursuant to the indemnification provisions of the Settlement Agreement. The $150,000 deductible under the indemnification provisions of the Settlement Agreement shall be cumulative as between South Seas and the Company and not with each such entity afforded a separate $150,000 deductible. South Seas' commitment under the South Seas Commitment Agreement shall continue for three (3) years from the Closing. TERMINATION Dollar has the unqualified right to terminate the Settlement Agreement and rescind the Proposed Sale, in the following circumstances or at the times indicated below: (i) upon non-acceptance of the content of the Company's schedules (or exhibits required to be updated) to the Settlement Agreement prior to Closing, or upon updating of such schedules (or exhibits required to be updated) as required by the Settlement Agreement periodically (with Dollar to accept or reject the same within five (5) days of receipt by Dollar's designated representative, with silence being deemed acceptance) and at Closing; (ii) upon failure of a condition to the obligation of Dollar to close under the Settlement Agreement, or breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement by the Company pursuant to the Settlement Agreement; (iii) upon exercise by the Company of a right to rescind the amendment to its License Agreement as described on Exhibit X to the Settlement Agreement or (iv) for any other reason in Dollar's sole discretion prior to the Closing (the foregoing, together with any other right that Dollar has to terminate the Settlement Agreement, collectively referred to as the "Permitted Termination Events".) (See Section 21(a).) In addition, the Settlement Agreement can be terminated and the Proposed Sale abandoned on the occurrence of the following events: (i) the Company and Dollar mutually agree in writing to such termination and abandonment; (ii) Dollar gives written notice of termination because one or more of the conditions to its obligation to consummate the Proposed Sale have not been satisfied or waived by Dollar; (iii) the Company gives written notice of termination because one or more of the conditions to its obligation to consummate the Proposed Sale have not been satisfied or waived by the Company; or (iv) either Dollar or the Company gives written notice of termination on or before Closing, for failure to accept or otherwise reach agreement upon an Agreed Practice proposed by the other party. (See Sections 21(a)(1) and 21(d).) Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, if the Closing has not occurred for whatever reason by November 30, 1995 the Settlement Agreement (unless extended by mutual agreement of Dollar and the Company) shall automatically terminate. (See Section 21(a)(7).) If Dollar elects to terminate the Settlement Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof, Dollar shall be entitled to retain all payments made by the Company pursuant to existing agreements, and the pledge of the South Seas stock shall remain in place to the extent at such time amounts that are secured by such pledge are accrued or due and unpaid by the Company to Dollar (or are subject to good faith disputes in accordance with the Settlement Agreement). Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company irrevocably and unqualifiedly waived any and all right to assert any challenge, claim or objection to Dollar's exercise of its right to terminate the Settlement Agreement for any reason at, during or upon the Permitted Termination Events, whether or not with justification, and including, without limitation, any assertion by the Company that Dollar's termination constitutes breach of any statutory or implied covenant of good faith, fair dealing or other duty, or as constituting any type of interference with prospective business advantage, contractual or business relationship, discrimination, economic duress or any other similar or dissimilar tort, breach of contract or any other theory of recovery whatsoever. (See Section 21(d).) REMEDIES In addition to the indemnity rights of Dollar and the Company under the Settlement Agreement and remedies available under applicable law, Dollar and the Company shall each have the following rights and remedies under the Settlement Agreement: (a) Dollar may foreclose its security interest in the South Seas stock to the extent permitted by the Settlement Agreement, the Stock Pledge Agreement or the Agency Agreement. (b) Either party may recover money damages for breach of representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and indemnities after the Closing or for failure or refusal to close after satisfaction (or waiver by the party entitled to the satisfaction) of all conditions precedent to the obligation of both parties to the Closing. (c) For breach of representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and indemnities before Closing, the non-defaulting party will be entitled to rescission, with the parties each being restored to their respective status before the Settlement Agreement, subject to the termination provisions of the Settlement Agreement, each with the ability to proceed with the Pending Cases or any other remedy; provided, however, that the passage of time shall not preclude Dollar in its discretion from asserting upon exercise of a rescissionary remedy that the 1995 Assistance Commitment between the parties has failed, with Dollar being entitled to claim the increased amounts due it from the Company if such assistance is determined to have failed. (d) For failure or refusal to close after fulfillment by both parties of all their respective conditions, the enforcing party may seek specific performance of the Settlement Agreement. A party may also seek specific performance for breach of a covenant or agreement hereunder. The parties irrevocably agree in the circumstances where specific performance is authorized hereunder that there is no adequate remedy available at law. (e) Upon breach of a Settlement Agreement representation, warranty, covenant or agreement by the Company under the Settlement Agreement, Dollar may terminate the Settlement Agreement whereupon the respective rights and liabilities of the parties with respect to the Master Lease Agreement and License Agreement shall be subject to the terms of such agreements and the Standstill Agreement. (f) For violation of the noncompetition agreements by the Company or Alan Robin, Dollar shall be entitled to injunctive relief. (See Section 22.) THE EXCHANGE OFFER The detailed terms and conditions of the Exchange Offer will be contained in the Offer to Exchange and Solicitation of Plan Acceptances or in the Letter of Transmittal (the "Offer and Solicitation Documents") to be sent to the Debentureholders when the Exchange Offer is made. Copies of the Offer and Solicitation Documents, once prepared and disseminated to the Debentureholders, will be available for review or copying at the offices of the Company shown on the cover of this Proxy Statement. THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION SETS FORTH A DESCRIPTION OF CERTAIN MATERIAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE EXCHANGE OFFER AND IS QUALIFIED BY THE MORE COMPLETE INFORMATION SET FORTH IN THE OFFER AND SOLICITATION DOCUMENTS. PRINCIPAL TRANSACTIONS The Company intends to invite each of the Debentureholders to tender the Debentures in exchange for (a) $.50 in cash for each $1.00 in principal amount of Debentures so tendered (the "Cash Payment"), (b) 0.769505 shares of the Company's Common Stock for each $1.00 in principal amount of Debentures so tendered, and (c) a pro rata share of the New Debentures in an original face amount of (i) $1,050,000 less (ii) the face amount of the Non-Tendered Debentures, if any, and less (iii) the original principal amount of the Net Worth Note, if any. Following consummation of the Transactions, the aggregate principal amount of indebtedness of the Company in respect of the Non-Tendered Debentures, if any, the New Debentures and the Net Worth Note will not exceed $1,050,000. The Company will accept for exchange not less than $4,988,000 in principal amount of Debentures. Debentures must be tendered in integral multiples of $1,000. Accrued interest, including interest payable on September 1, 1995, will not be paid on the Debentures tendered and accepted for exchange. All Debentureholders who tender Debentures and whose Debentures are accepted for exchange by the Company shall be deemed to have consented to the Proposed Sale. Accrued interest payable on September 1, 1995, will be paid on the Non-Tendered Debentures. In addition, all Debentureholders who tender Debentures and whose Debentures are accepted for exchange by the Company shall be deemed (i) to have waived, with respect to those Debentures exchanged, all existing defaults, and all consequences of such defaults, under the Indenture, (ii) to have consented to the following amendments to the Indenture: (a) the deletion in its entirety of Section 5.01 of the Indenture (When Corporation May Merge, etc.); (b) the deletion of (A) subsections (4) (relating to Indenture covenant defaults) and (5) (relating to defaults with respect to other indebtedness) of Section 6.01 of the Indenture (Events of Default) and (B) of the last full paragraph of Section 6.01 of the Indenture (Events of Default); and (c) amending the references to "25%" in (A) Section 6.02 of the Indenture (Acceleration) and (B) subsection (2) of Section 6.06 of the Indenture (Limitation on Suits), to be references to "50%". The Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Exchange Offer will not have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or the state securities laws of any state, and will be offered and sold in reliance on an exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and similar state law exemptions. Therefore, such Common Stock cannot be resold unless it is subsequently registered under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities laws or an exemption from registration is available. Certificates representing the Common Stock to be issued to the Debentureholders will bear a legend to this effect. The Company currently intends to make the Exchange Offer to the Debentureholders prior to the Special Meeting. Once the Company has made the Exchange Offer to the Debentureholders, the Exchange Offer must remain open for a period of twenty working days. The Company has not authorized any person to make any recommendation on behalf of the Company as to whether Debentureholders should tender or refrain from tendering Debentures pursuant to the Exchange Offer. The Company has not authorized any person to give any information or to make any representation in connection with the Exchange Offer on behalf of the Company other than those which will be contained in the Offer and Solicitation Documents. The Company has retained Georgesan & Co. as Information Agent and Manufacturers Hanover Trust Co. of California as Depositary in connection with the Exchange Offer. The Information Agent may contact Debentureholders by mail, telephone, telex, telegraph and personal interviews, and may request brokers, dealers and other nominee Debentureholders to forward materials relating to the Exchange Offer to beneficial owners. The Depositary and the Information Agent will receive reasonable and customary compensation for their services. The Company will also reimburse the Depositary and the Information Agent for out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, and has agreed to indemnify the Depositary and the Information Agent against certain liabilities in connection with the Exchange Offer, including certain liabilities under the federal securities laws. THE COMPANY IS SOLICITING ITS SHAREHOLDERS' PROXIES SOLELY IN CONNECTION WITH APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSED SALE, AND SUCH OTHER BUSINESS AS MAY PROPERLY COME BEFORE THE SPECIAL MEETING. THE APPROVAL OF THE SHAREHOLDERS IS NOT BEING SOLICITED FOR THE CONSUMMATION OF THE EXCHANGE OFFER, THE PREPACKAGED PLAN OR THE ISSUANCE OF PREVIOUSLY AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK TO THE DEBENTUREHOLDERS OR DOLLAR IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. THE PREPACKAGED PLAN The Prepackaged Plan would generally give effect to the same exchange contemplated by the Exchange Offer and the Company intends to implement the Transactions pursuant to the Prepackaged Plan if the Minimum Tender is not received. Implementation of the Prepackaged Plan will be subject to receipt of the Requisite Plan Acceptances. Under the Bankruptcy Code, only those Debentureholders who vote to accept or reject the Prepackaged Plan will be counted for purposes of determining acceptance or rejection of the Prepackaged Plan by the Debentureholders; therefore, the Prepackaged Plan could be approved with the affirmative vote of less than two-thirds in amount of the outstanding Debentures. Even if all the Requisite Plan Acceptances are obtained or are deemed to have be obtained, the Prepackaged Plan may not be confirmed by the bankruptcy court unless the requirements of Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code are satisfied (see Section 1129 discussion below). The Prepackaged Plan will administer all of the assets of the Company which will be composed of, among other items, property specifically not acquired by Dollar under the Settlement Agreement and causes of action. A substantial majority of the Company's assets will have been transferred pre-bankruptcy to Dollar pursuant to the Settlement Agreement. The cash payment by Dollar under the Settlement Agreement is not property of the Company because it is being held in escrow for the benefit of Debentureholders, the holders of allow priority and administrative claims, creditors having allowed claims of the same class as the Debentureholders and Dollar. The Prepackaged Plan provides for releases of the Company's affiliates, stockholders, directors, officers and others (the "Third Party Releases") as a material part of the implementation of the Prepackaged Plan. A substantial majority of the Company's liabilities will also have been assumed pre-bankruptcy by Dollar pursuant to the Settlement Agreement. The remaining liabilities will be classified as either priority claims (under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code), secured claims, debentureholder claims and unsecured non-priority claims other than debentureholder claims which are not contingent or disputed or paid in the ordinary course of the bankruptcy case implemented as part of the Prepackage Plan, contingent claims, existing equity claims or option holder claims. At a minimum the Prepackaged Plan could result (i) in the cash portion of the Plan Consideration being reduced to the extent of allowed priority and administrative claims and (ii) the Debentureholders sharing the Plan Consideration on a pro rata basis with the holders, if any, of allowed claims of the class to which the Debentures belong as described above. The Company is not presently aware of any other creditors in the same class as the Debentureholders. The Company believes that, should the Prepackaged Plan be implemented, administrative expenses for fees of attorneys and other professional advisors could exceed $200,000. The Prepackaged Plan contemplates that contingent claims will be separately classified and unimpaired by the Prepackaged Plan. Pursuant to the Prepackaged Plan, each outstanding share of Common Stock will remain outstanding and holders thereof will receive no additional consideration under the Prepackaged Plan on account of the Common Stock. Any options to acquire Common Stock will be cancelled and holders thereof will receive no consideration. The Transactions, if consummated through the Prepackaged Plan, will result in the Debentureholders resulting in the Debentureholders receiving 30% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company, on a fully-diluted basis, following consummation of the Transactions and in Dollar receiving 10.0% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company, on a fully-diluted basis, following consummation of the Transactions. Creditors will not be required to file proofs of claim or interest or take other action to enforce such rights against the Company except creditors who dispute the amount listed for their claims in the Company's schedules and related filings. The Company will seek a bankruptcy court order on the first day of the Chapter 11 case to permit the Company to, and upon entry of such order the Company will, pay in the ordinary course of business the pre- bankruptcy trade claims of trade creditors who have agreed to provide the Company with customary trade terms or to reinstate customary trade terms. Pursuant to Section 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Company will pay the post- bankruptcy claims of trade creditors who provide the Company with goods and services. EMPLOYEES AND TRADE CREDITORS OF SOUTH SEAS WILL NOT BE AFFECTED BY THE PREPACKAGED PLAN, UNLESS THEY ARE CREDITORS OF THE COMPANY. In evaluating the Transactions and the Prepackaged Plan, parties will be advised to consider, among other risks, (i) the highly leveraged position of the Company and its recent operating results, (ii) the highly competitive and fragmented nature of the car rental and sales industries, (iii) the uncertainties related to the financial projections of the Company which will be contained in the solicitation of consents to the Prepackaged Plan, (iv) the seasonality of the Company's business, (v) the possible disruption of the Company's business as a result of the solicitation of consents to the Prepackaged Plan and the commencement of a reorganization case, (vi) the possible invalidation of the solicitation of acceptances by the bankruptcy court, (vii) the risk of non-confirmation of the Prepackaged Plan, (viii) the absence of a public trading market for, and potential volatility of the price of the securities received by the Debentureholders in the Transactions, (ix) the uncertainty as to the occurrence of the effective date of the confirmation of the Prepackaged Plan and (x) certain federal income tax considerations. The parties evaluating the Transactions and the Prepackaged Plan will also be advised that the Company's management, based on advice of the Company's litigation counsel, believes that closing the Proposed Sale (and ratifying the Settlement Agreement through the Prepackaged Plan) is in the best interest of the Company's creditors and stockholders, and that the releases of Dollar to be effected by the Settlement Agreement are justified by the fact that the prospective benefits of litigation are outweighed by, among other things, (i) operating losses incurred by the Division which impair the Company's ability to continue operations as conducted prior to consummation of the Settlement Agreement; (ii) the fact that the cost to prosecute and defend the civil actions by and against Dollar are prohibitively high; and (iii) the elimination of risks associated with litigation with Dollar, including the risk that Dollar could terminate the Company's rights under the License Agreement and the Master Lease, and the risk that Company would not prevail in its causes of action asserted against Dollar. The Expiration Date for the solicitation of consents to the Prepackaged Plan is anticipated to be 5:00 p.m. California time, on November ___, 1995, unless extended by the Company, in which case the "Expiration Date" shall mean the time and date to which the solicitation of consents by the Debentureholders to the Prepackaged Plan has been extended. The Company currently intends to make the consent solicitation with respect to the Prepackaged Plan concurrently with the making of the Exchange Offer to the Debentureholders (i.e, prior to the Special Meeting). Once the Company has made the consent solicitation with respect to the Prepackaged Plan to the Debentureholders, the Company intends that the consent solicitation will remain open for the same period as the Exchange Offer. If the Requisite Plan Acceptances from Debentureholders are obtained and the Company elects to commence a Chapter 11 case, at the confirmation hearing for such case, the bankruptcy court can confirm the Prepackaged Plan if all the requirements of Section 1129(a) of the Bankruptcy Code are met. Among the requirements for confirmation of a Prepackaged Plan under Section 1129(a) of the Bankruptcy Code are: (i) that the Prepackaged Plan (and the Company, as the Prepackaged Plan proponent) complies with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code; (ii) that the Prepackaged Plan was proposed in good faith and not by means forbidden by law; (iii) that with respect to each impaired class of claims or interests, each holder of a claim or interest in the class has either accepted the plan or will receive or retain under the plan an amount of property that is not less than the amount such holder would receive in a liquidation under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code; (iv) that the Prepackaged Plan is feasible; and (v) that at least one class of impaired claims (if any) has accepted the Prepackaged Plan. If the Prepackaged Plan is accepted by the Debentureholders, the Company intends to seek to have the Prepackaged Plan confirmed pursuant to Section 1129(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, the "cramdown" provisions, which respect to any non-accepting classes as contemplated by the Bankruptcy Code. The Prepackaged Plan will be so confirmed if the bankruptcy court's determination that the statutory requirements of Section 1129(b) are satisfied, which means (i) all of the requirements of Section 1129(a) of the Bankruptcy Code are satisfied, except Subsection (8) which requires each class approve the plan or be unimpaired and (ii) the plan provide that (a) secured creditors receive either (1) a continuation of their liens plus deferred cash payments totalling at least the allowed amount of the secured claims; (2) a lien on the proceeds from the sale of property subject to the secured creditors' existing liens plus either deferred cash payments totalling at least the allowed amount of the secured claims or the indubitable equivalent of the secured claims; or (3) the indubitable equivalent of their secured claims; (b) members of a class of non- accepting secured claims receive (1) property equal to the allowed amount of the unsecured claims; or (2) no creditors of a class junior to the non-accepting unsecured class receive or retain any property under the plan on account of their claims or interests; and (c) equity interests receive (1) property in the amount equal to the greatest of the allowed amount of any fixed liquidation preference to which such equity interest is entitled; or (2) no junior class of equity interest receives or retains any property under the plan or account of their equity interest. THE COMPANY IS SOLICITING ITS SHAREHOLDERS' PROXIES SOLELY IN CONNECTION WITH APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSED SALE, AND SUCH OTHER BUSINESS AS MAY PROPERLY COME BEFORE THE SPECIAL MEETING. THE APPROVAL OF THE SHAREHOLDERS IS NOT BEING SOLICITED FOR THE CONSUMMATION OF THE EXCHANGE OFFER, THE PREPACKAGED PLAN OR THE ISSUANCE OF PREVIOUSLY AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK TO THE DEBENTUREHOLDERS OR DOLLAR IN CONNECTION THEREWITH. VOTING GENERAL The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the total voting power of the outstanding shares of Common Stock as of the Record Date is necessary for the approval of the Proposed Sale. The enclosed form of proxy provides a means for shareholders to vote for approval of the Proposed Sale, to vote against the Proposed Sale or to abstain from voting with regard to the approval of the Proposed Sale. Each properly executed proxy received in time for the meeting will be voted as specified therein. IF A SHAREHOLDER EXECUTES AND RETURNS A PROXY BUT DOES NOT SPECIFY OTHERWISE, THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY SUCH SHAREHOLDER'S PROXY WILL BE VOTED "FOR" THE APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSED SALE. Because the approval of the Proposed Sale requires a vote based on the total outstanding number of shares, abstentions and broker non-votes will be equivalent to a vote against the Proposed Sale. Accordingly, the Company urges each shareholder to vote and urges shareholders whose shares are held in the name of their broker, bank or other nominee to instruct such person to vote their shares. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" THE APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSED SALE. The officers and directors of the Company, as a group, ________ and ___________, holders of approximately 12.3%, ____% and ___%, respectively, of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (excluding shares of Common Stock which were issuable upon conversion of the Debentures and which are not outstanding and entitled to vote as of the Record Date), intend to vote all of their shares of Common Stock for approval of the Proposed Sale. Assuming such shares are voted in favor of the Proposed Sale, the affirmative vote of only _______ additional shares of Common Stock (representing approximately ____% of the shares of Common Stock currently outstanding) would be required to approve the Proposed Sale. As of the Record Date, 8,079,800 shares of Common Stock were outstanding and entitled to vote. DISSENTERS' RIGHTS Under the laws of the State of California, the Company's shareholders who object to the Proposed Sale will not be entitled to dissenters' rights. INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN THE PROPOSED SALE The directors and named executive officers of the Company own 877,332 shares of Common Stock and Sirio Maggiacomo, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company, has options to acquire an additional 100,000 shares of Common Stock which option is presently exercisable for 80,000 shares. This option is subject to anti-dilution protection as may be deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company. Scott Lang, a director of the Company, owns $73,000 in face amount of the Debentures which are currently convertible into 2,212 shares of Common Stock. Mr. Lang has indicated that he intends to tender his Debentures pursuant to the Exchange Offer. (See "SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF MANAGEMENT".) In addition certain employees may be retained by Dollar under current or renegotiated employment agreements. (See "TERMS OF THE PROPOSED SALE- Employees".)

The Company has obtained a revised actuarial report as of December 31, 1990, and has increased the $650,000 previously reported reserve by $766,000, resulting in an adjusted reserve balance of $1,416,000. The accompanying financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 1990 have been restated to correct the aforementioned error.
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS AND BALANCE SHEET The following Unaudited Pro Forma Statement of Operations and Unaudited Balance Sheet of the Company is based on and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and other financial information of the Company included elsewhere in this Proxy Statement.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 The Company reported a consolidated net loss of $1,599,474 or $0.20 per share for the second quarter of 1995, compared to net income of $2,365 or $0.00 per share for the same quarter last year. For the six months ended June 30, 1995, the Company reported a net loss of $1,977,615 or $0.24 per share, compared to net income of $513,984 or $0.06 per share for the same period last year. Operating revenues from the Company's vehicle rental division for the three months ended June 30, 1995, totaled $11,921,078, a decrease of 10.25% from revenues of $13,283,130 for the second quarter of 1994. The decrease in revenue for the quarter resulted from lower rental day volume compared to the same period in 1994, continuing a decline that also affected the first quarter. Rental division operating revenues totaled $24,535,550 for the six month period ended June 30, 1995, versus $27,184,699 for the corresponding period in 1994. Although the reduction in unit volume affected most of the Company's markets, the sharpest declines were in the Company's business generated through reservations from Dollar on the U.S. mainland, and from the local impulse market. The Company continued to make progress in increasing its average daily rental yield, however, the increase of approximately 7.4% in second quarter yield was not sufficient to offset lower utilization as unit volume suffered. Total direct fleet holding costs, which include lease payments, depreciation, interest, car sales and other fleet expenses (freight, dealer profit and license) increased by 22% for the second quarter of 1995 compared to the same period in 1994, based on an average fleet size 11% lower than in 1994, reflecting the continuing significant increase in holding costs on a per unit basis. Other operating costs and expenses, including personnel, occupancy and other direct operating costs were down by almost $500,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1995 compared to the same period in 1994, and would have been down even more, except for approximately $250,000 incurred in legal fees relating to Company's efforts to settle various issues with Dollar. The Company's vehicle sales operations generated revenues of $22,697,361 and $11,950,869 for the six months and three months ended June 30, 1995, as compared with $20,933,924 and $10,883,066 for the same periods in 1994. The increase in revenues from vehicle sales reflects price increases on new vehicles sales and higher sales of used vehicles. Operating expenses related to the Company's vehicle sales division increased from prior year levels in proportion to the revenue increases. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - THREE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 CONSOLIDATED RESULTS The Company reported a consolidated net loss of $1,427,000 or $.18 per share for the year ended December 31, 1994, as compared with a consolidated net loss of $804,000 or $.09 per share in 1993 and a consolidated net loss of $2,105,000 or $.23 per share in 1992. The 1992 results reflect the Company increasing its insurance reserve as a result of an increase in claims experience under its self-insurance program and losses related to Hurricane Iniki. VEHICLE RENTAL DIVISION OPERATING RESULTS The Company reported an operating loss for its vehicle division of $382,000 for the year ended December 31, 1994. The Company realized operating income of $189,000 and incurred an operating loss of $1,336,000 for the years ended December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively. Increased fleet holding costs and uncharacteristically low rental volume primarily during November and December were the significant factors contributing to the Company's loss for 1994. Rental day volume during the fourth quarter decreased 8.4% when compared to the same period in 1993; total rental volume per day during 1994 decreased 4.3% from 1993 volume. Reduced volume can be attributed to two factors; first, increased competition for high volume wholesale accounts from corporate owned car rental companies and, second, reduced advertising nationwide by Dollar limited the potential of the Company to increase the cumulative impact of its retail rental volume from consumers and travel agents. Although the Company was able to maintain annual revenue levels when compared to 1993 by marginally increasing its average daily yield, yield increases were not substantial enough to offset increased fleet holding costs. Fleet holding costs for 1994 increased $1,382,000. This increase was solely due to increased vehicle fleet cost and not increased fleet size as the Company reduced the annual average size of its rental fleet from 5,774 for 1993 to 5,505 during 1994. Increases in the prime interest rate from 6% to 8.5% during 1994 negatively impacted fleet holding costs as interest charges on all of the Company's leased fleet and a majority of its financed fleet float with the prime rate. In addition, during the fourth quarter of 1994, the Company revised two estimates related to fleet holding cost. First, the Company reduced its estimated holding period related to a leased vehicle's period of service as a result of decreased rental volume, as vehicles were returned at an average of one month earlier than originally planned. This change reduced the total in- service retention credits estimated to be earned ratably over a leased vehicle's period of service. Secondly, the Company incurred higher reconditioning costs during the fourth quarter and therefore, increased its estimate related to future vehicle reconditioning costs. These changes resulted in additional fleet holding costs of $856,000 during the fourth quarter. At December 31, 1994, the Company's rental vehicle fleet, not all of which were on rent at that date, aggregated 5,228. At December 31, 1993 and 1992 the fleet totaled 6,623 and 7,002, respectively. In 1994, Dollar provided the Company with certain financial assistance pursuant to the terms of the 1994 Assistance Agreement. Under the 1994 Assistance Agreement, Dollar, among other concessions, reduced the license fees payable by the Company to Dollar in 1994 which resulted in a savings of approximately $488,000. The Company also received approximately $868,000 in additional fleet allowances and $518,000 in freight credits, which were subsequently awarded to offset added shipping costs associated with returning vehicles to mainland auctions. Operating income in 1993 resulted mainly from the Company increasing its average daily rental yield to offset increased fleet holding costs primarily resulting from increases in the various domestic automobile manufacturers' repurchase and leasing programs. In addition, fleet insurance expense decreased significantly from 1992 as claims experience in 1993 improved. The 1992 operating loss reflects increased fleet holding costs in 1992 model year vehicles and increases to the Company's reserve for potential bodily injury claims and the settlement estimates for known claims. Operating results for all three years exclude income taxes and interest expense related to the Debentures, both of which are absorbed wholly by the vehicle rental division, and interest expense related to mortgage financing. Operating results in 1993 and 1992 exclude the losses incurred from the uninsured damage to the Company's Kauai rental fleet caused by Hurricane Iniki. VEHICLE SALES DIVISION OPERATING RESULTS The Company's vehicle sales division reported operating income of $67,000 in 1994, $470,000 in 1993, and $523,000 in 1992. Overall new car unit sales for 1994 decreased by 15.8% from 1993. Chrysler's lack of production and restrictive distribution guidelines during 1994 limited the availability of Chrysler vehicle inventory at both of the Company's dealerships. This reduced sales inventory significantly impaired South Seas' ability to maximize revenue and profitability as Chrysler new car sales for 1994 decreased by approximately one-third from 1993. Although Hyundai unit sales increased in 1994, this increase did not offset the significant decrease in Chrysler unit sales because the revenue and gross profits generated from Hyundai unit sales are less than those generated from Chrysler unit sales. During 1993, the Company absorbed a $574,000 loss from its Kaneohe vehicle dealership. This loss includes $137,000 which was incurred upon closure of the dealership and is classified as a non-operating expense. The Company closed this satellite dealership in December 1993 when it was unable to acquire a new car franchise for that location and determined that profitable operations solely as a used car dealership were not possible. Unit sales volume during 1993 increased by 52.6% at the remaining two dealerships when compared to 1992. Through September 1992, the Company operated only one vehicle dealership and one satellite location. VEHICLE RENTAL DIVISION REVENUES The Company's vehicle rental division reported revenues of $54,126,000 for the year ended December 31, 1994 compared to $54,163,000 in revenues recorded in 1993. Total vehicle rental days in 1994 were lower than 1993 by 4.3%. Vehicle rental days during the fourth quarter of 1994 were down 8.4% from the same period in 1993, which is significant considering fleet levels were raised in anticipation of increased holiday business. Furthermore, the Company was unable to offset its loss of certain high volume wholesale accounts with a future increase in its retail rental volume mainly due to the temporary reductions and realignment in Dollar's advertising strategy during 1994. Although volume decreased, the Company was able to marginally increase its average yield per day for the year and generate comparable revenues to 1993 on lower rental day volume. The Company achieved higher revenues in 1993 when compared to 1992 resulting mainly from overall increased daily rental pries because vehicle rental days decreased by 5.4% from 1992 levels as the tourist economy in Hawaii continued to suffer in 1993. VEHICLE SALES DIVISION REVENUES The Company's car sales division reported revenues of $39,699,000 for the year ended December 31, 1994, a 9.8% decrease from the $43,988,000 in revenues recorded during 1993. Total new car sales decreased by 15.8% from 1993 levels. Chrysler new car sales alone decreased 33.7% mainly due to the lack of inventory resulting from product allocation restrictions instituted by Chrysler. Although SSJE sold approximately 160 more new Hyundai vehicles during 1994 as compared to 1993, the price of new Hyundai cars are significantly less than Chrysler cars. Consequently, the revenue from the increased Hyundai sales did not make up for the decreased Chrysler sales. Based on discussions with Chrysler and inventory shipments received during the first six months of 1995, management does not anticipate experiencing similar Chrysler inventory shortages during 1995. The Company's increased revenues in 1993 over 1992 are a direct result of higher sales volume. During most of 1993, the Company operated two full service vehicle dealerships and one satellite dealership, as compared to the one dealership and one satellite location through September 1992. Excluding the revenue generated by the Kaneohe dealership which closed during 1993, this division's revenues would have still increased $7,703,000 or 24.4%. OPERATING EXPENSES During 1993, eligibility requirements to obtain rental fleet under certain domestic automobile manufacturer repurchase programs for 1994 model year vehicles were significantly revised. The Company could no longer rely on Ford and GM as its primary source of rental fleet vehicles. As a result, the Company leased approximately 4,000 vehicles for its 1994 rental fleet through Dollar. Holding costs under the lease program offered by Dollar were higher than holding costs under the Ford and GM repurchase programs. To remain competitive with other car rental companies in the Hawaii market, the Company obtained certain concessions from Dollar in the 1994 Assistance Agreement which reduced some of the fleet holding costs. Despite such concessions, lease rates and vehicle reconditioning expenses (which are included in depreciation expense), still increased the Company's direct fleet holding cost from 1993. Direct fleet holding costs include lease payments, depreciation, fleet interest, and other fleet expenses (freight, dealer profit, and license) and totaled $21,997,000 in 1994 as compared to $20,615,000 in 1993. (Depreciation expense includes the rental vehicles' depreciation, realized and unrealized gains or losses on "risk" sales or manufacturer turnbacks, and amortized fleet rebates and allowances). Over the past three years, the Company's annual fleet size averaged 5,505, 5,774 and 5,688 units for 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively, The Company incurred a charge of $350,000 in 1994 related to a four year old claim settled in 1995. The Company opted to settle this case and mitigate further damages due to unfavorable rulings in similar cases which were decided during the latter portion of 1994. The Company originally set a reserve for this claim at statutory limits of $50,000. The Company's borrowing rate during 1994 increased in conjunction with the national prime rate. Interest expense related to leased vehicles is not reported separately as monthly lease rates charged are inclusive of interest, however for every 1% increase in the prime rate, lease rates increased by an average of $15 per vehicle. Any interest charges related to the leased vehicles are included in a rental fleet lease expense and offset the $2,000,000 decrease in interest on fleet debt which is a direct result of replacing repurchase program cars with leased vehicles. The decrease in interest expense on the Company's rental fleet during 1993 reflected the initial transition of replacing repurchase program cars with leased vehicles. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The absence of an increase in the Company's rental vehicle revenue and substantially higher lease payments on Chrysler vehicles, versus principal and interest payments on repurchase program vehicles, adversely impacted the Company's operating cash flow during 1994. Furthermore, the Company's cash flow was negatively affected by cash downpayments required to purchase rental fleet vehicles and increased loan amortization percentages required by financing entities to satisfy collateral requirements related to vehicle financing. As a result of its cash flow situation, the Company evaluated and initiated several cost-cutting measures during March 1995, the most significant being labor reductions which are estimated to result in savings of approximately $600,000. SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS During 1994, the Company obtained the 1994 Assistance Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement: Dollar (i) reduced the fees payable under the License Agreement for the period from January 1, 1994 to December 31, 1994; (ii) waived and discharged any obligation for certain fees owed under the License Agreement prior to January 1, 1994; (iii) increased certain incentive credits, rebates and fleet allowances under the lease program; and (iv) advanced the Company $1,400,000 to be used by the Company exclusively to pay amounts owed to Dollar under its 1994 lease program. The Company paid interest on the advance at a floating rate equal to the prime rate plus 1.5%. Principal reductions of this debt were made by way of an assignment of incentive credits and fleet allowances owed by Dollar to the Company. As of December 31, 1994, approximately $513,000 remained outstanding to Dollar. In consideration for the bond, the Company was required to: (i) indemnify Dollar and certain of its affiliates in connection with the issuance of the bond; (ii) assign to Dollar its receivable from the sale of the asian rights under the License Agreement; (iii) assign to Dollar its interest in the License Agreement; and (iv) grant to Dollar a junior mortgage of its leasehold interest in its SSJE and OCJ locations. The Company received substantial economic benefits under certain assistance agreements and commitments from Dollar which attempted to (i) provide parity with other Dollar licenses located in the U.S. mainland and (ii) make the Company competitive with the "corporate store" rental companies doing business in Hawaii. Unfortunately due to many factors, including but not limited to the Company's geographic location and financial condition, that such assistance has not made the Company profitable and the Company will need future financial assistance, notwithstanding management's implementation of various cost-cutting programs and shifts in customer base and mix. Although Dollar assisted the Company in remedying some of its cash flow problems during 1994, no such assistance is available in 1995. VEHICLE RENTAL DIVISION As a part of the 1994 Assistance Agreement, Dollar advanced $1,400,000 to the Company. This advance was partially repaid through competitive credits earned by the Company during the year and approximately $513,000 remained outstanding at December 31, 1994. Furthermore, pursuant to the 1994 Assistance Agreement, Chrysler Insurance Co. (an affiliate of Dollar) renewed a previously posted $3,400,000 surety bond with the Insurance Department of the State of Hawaii on behalf of the Company to satisfy the Company's self insurance requirements. The Company indemnified Dollar and certain of its affiliates in connection with the issuance of the bond. To secure the Company's indemnification of those parties, the Company: (i) assigned to Dollar its receivable from the sale of the Asian franchise rights; (ii) assigned to Dollar its interest in its License Agreement; and (iii) granted to Dollar a junior mortgage covering the Company's leasehold interest in its SSJE and OCJ locations. As of February 1995, the Company enrolled with a commercial insurance carrier to handle all future property and casualty claims. Since the Company is no longer self insured, additional surety bonds will no longer be required for the State of Hawaii. Over the past two years, the Company completely replaced its computer systems for car rental reservations and accounting with an advance rental counter computer software system developed jointly with a software development company. The system is fully operational at all rental locations. Lease financing covered most of the related expenditures and as of December 31, 1994, the Company had outstanding $656,000 of capital lease financing. As of December 31, 1994, South Seas had $661,000 of outstanding mortgage debt related to its baseyard facilities on Oahu and Kauai. Under the most restrictive covenant of the Kauai loan agreement, the Company is required to maintain a defined debt to net worth ratio. As of December 31, 1994, the Company was not in compliance with this covenant, but has obtained a written waiver from the bank regarding such non-compliance. In addition, $176,000 remains outstanding as of December 31, 1994 from a U.S. Small Business Administration loan received during 1993 which was used to finance capital improvements necessary to repair damages suffered from Hurricane Iniki. The losses sustained by Hurricane Iniki in 1992 continued to be mitigated by recoveries from renters who had not purchased loss damage waivers. Claims in excess of $610,000 were filed by the Company against those renters who had declined the loss damage waiver. The estimate of collectible receivables for such claims recorded in late 1992 was $519,000. At December 31, 1994, $20,000 remains outstanding which the Company expects to collect. VEHICLE SALES DIVISION During 1993, the Company completed expansion of two service facilities at its dealerships located in Nimitz Highway and at the Waipahu Industrial Park. The Company expects these facilities to be profitable based on the capacity to service large numbers of vehicles. These projects were financed solely through working capital generated by the vehicle sales operations. As of December 31, 1994, South Seas had $574,000 of outstanding mortgage debt related to OCJ. In March 1992, the Company's South Seas subsidiary entered into a lease of approximately 55,000 square feet of property in the Waipahu Industrial park. The lease, for which the Company paid a lease premium of $450,000, expires in 2021. The Company invested a total of $958,000, of which $800,000 was financed by the Bank of Hawaii, to acquire this leasehold and upgrade the facility to a full service operation. The Company renovated the building located at this site and moved its Waipahu Jeep Eagle operations during August 1992. During 1992, Chrysler granted South Seas a Chrysler Plymouth franchise which complemented its existing Jeep Eagle operations at this location. As of December 31, 1994, South Seas has $609,000 outstanding of mortgage debt related to this location. South Seas leased approximately 28,300 and 8,500 square feet of property in Kaneohe on the island of Oahu. The Company closed the dealership in December 1993. The leases expire in 2003 and 1998, respectively. The Company has assigned the leases for both properties without losses on these assignments. South Seas' various loan agreements prohibit the payment of dividends or other distributions to the Company. FINANCING The Company's primary source of capital to finance the purchase of its rental fleet has traditionally been through borrowings from manufacturer financing affiliates, banks and other lenders. During 1994, the Company obtained a $15,000,000 line of credit with Finova to finance the purchase of 700 Hyundai vehicles under a guaranteed depreciation program ("GDP"). Under the GDP the manufacturer guarantees the maximum depreciation amount that any of its vehicles will incur over a stated period, resulting in a fixed residual value when sold. The Company also financed approximately 600 leased vehicles purchased from the 1994 Dollar Systems Leasing Program under this line of credit. The Company received various credit incentives and allowances to purchase these vehicles and reclassify these vehicles to "risk". The Company intends to dispose of these vehicles by mid- 1996. As of December 31, 1994, the Company had $14,700,000 outstanding under this line. Under the most restrictive covenants contained in the Finova loan agreement in effect as of December 31, 1994, the Company was required to maintain a defined minimum consolidated net worth and minimum debt service coverage ratio. The Company was not in compliance with certain of these covenants at December 31, 1994, but has obtained a written waiver from Finova regarding such non-compliance. During 1994, the Company obtained various lines of credit with the Bank of Hawaii totalling $19,984,000. The Company principally used these amounts to extend financing on portions of its fleet to coincide with manufacturer repurchase program deadlines and to obtain both repurchase program and "risk" vehicles from domestic (Ford) and foreign (Hyundai) manufacturers. As of December 31, 1994, the Company had $7,792,000 outstanding under these lines. Under the most restrictive covenants contained in one of the Bank of Hawaii agreements in effect as of December 31, 1994, the Company was required to maintain a defined (i) minimum consolidated net worth; (ii) minimum working capital; (iii) minimum interest coverage ratio; and (iv) minimum cash flow coverage. The Company was not in compliance with certain of these covenants at December 31, 1994. However, as of March 23, 1995, the Company had decreased its outstanding balance under these lines to approximately $1,700,000. In addition, as part of its fleet plan for 1995, certain of the vehicles securing these were disposed of prior to July 1995, resulting in a balance under these lines as of June 30, 1995 of approximately $735,000. The Company anticipates that the proceeds from the disposal of these vehicles will cover the amount outstanding under the lines of credit. Consequently, the Company does not expect the Bank of Hawaii to declare it in default for noncompliance with these covenants, nor does it expect its operations or financial condition to be materially affected by such noncompliance. Prior to 1994, the Company purchased substantially all of its rental vehicles from either GM or Ford and financed these vehicles with General Motors Acceptance Corp. ("GMAC"), Ford Motor Credit Company ("FMCC"), and the Bank of Hawaii. The Company is maintaining its credit lines with GMAC and FMCC in the amounts of $20,000,000 and $7,500,000, respectively, of which $8,863,000 and $8,622,000 were outstanding under each respective line of credit at December 31, 1994. FMCC allowed the Company to exceed its credit line limit during 1994. Vehicles are financed for terms ranging from six months to two years and require monthly debt service ranging from 1% to 3% of the original principal amount or refinanced balance. The vehicles subject to repurchase programs are held an average of eight to ten months. The Company holds the vehicles not subject to repurchase anywhere from six to twenty-four months. Of the Company's $48,034,000 of senior debt as of December 31, 1994, approximately $39,977,000 represented debt relating to rental vehicle financing compared with $37,803,000 at December 31, 1993. Although the overall size of the Company's rental fleet has decreased, a larger number of vehicles in the fleet as of December 31, 1994 are being financed. The Company's payments with respect to the repurchase program vehicles are limited to the payments falling due during the intended holding period, except with respect to those vehicles that are purchased as "risk" vehicles or vehicles that become "risk" as a result of rejection under the repurchase programs. As eligibility for fleet allocations under Ford and GM repurchase programs become more restrictive, it became necessary for the Company to lease the majority of this 1994 model year rental fleet from Dollar. The Company obtained approval from Dollar to lease approximately 4,000 1994 Chrysler vehicles for its rental fleet under the 1994 Dollar Fleet Leasing Program. The Company's average service life for these vehicles was approximately twelve and a half months. As of December 31, 1994, approximately 1,900 vehicles in the Company's rental fleet were being leased under the 1994 lease program. The Company received approval to place orders with Dollar under the 1995 Dollar Fleet Leasing Program ("1995 Lease Program") for approximately 4,300 vehicles to satisfy its 1995 rental fleet requirements. As of December 31, 1994, the Company received approximately 600 of these ordered vehicles. As of December 31, 1994, approximately 59% of the Company's vehicles were subject to repurchase programs or were leased, compared with 79% and 82% as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively. Pursuant to the terms of the 1994 Assistance Agreement between the Company and Dollar, Dollar agreed to advance the Company $1,400,000 by permitting the Company to reduce certain monthly lease payments which would otherwise be due to Dollar under the 1994 lease program. The Company paid interest on the advance at a floating rate equal to the prime rate plus 1.5%. The terms of the agreement required monthly payments of interest only, with principal payments made by way of an assignment by the Company to Dollar of the incentive credits and fleet allowances owed by Dollar to the Company under the 1994 lease program. The Company's competitors are also subject to increased fleet expenses which have caused an increase in vehicle rental rates in Hawaii. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining increased rates from its customers to cover its entire fleet price increase. An inability to recover all of the increasing costs would have an adverse effect on the Company's operations. During 1993, GM offered the Company various credit incentives and allowances to reclassify certain repurchase program vehicles to "risk" vehicles. The Company is required to hold these vehicles for either a minimum of 20,000 miles or 12 months from the original purchase date. The Company sold the majority of these vehicles as of December 31, 1994 and intended to dispose of the remaining vehicles during the three quarters of 1995. In 1992, the Company purchased 1992 model year subcompact vehicles outside the repurchase programs because these vehicles were unavailable in sufficient quantities under the programs. These vehicles were sold to the Company and included rebates consistent with the GM Long Term Risk Program. In addition, the Company also received certain freight concessions related to these vehicles. In 1993, the Company was successful in disposing of these vehicles and recorded a gain of approximately $300,000. None of these vehicles remain in the rental fleet as of December 31, 1994. New vehicle inventory purchased for sale by South Seas is purchased under a $13,500,000 line of credit with Chrysler Credit Corporation. These vehicles are typically financed until the conclusion of the following model year. As of June 30, 1995, December 31, 1994 and December 31, 1993, outstanding balances under these lines totaled $9,258,000, $4,402,000 and $7,851,000, respectively. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS The Company has seven underground and one above ground petroleum product storage tanks and one underground waste oil storage tank on its properties. The Company is subject to the federal and state laws governing the ownership and operation of these storage tanks. These laws require the Company to test periodically the integrity of these tanks and to mitigate and remediate the environmental effects of any releases of products from the storage tanks. In 1993, the Company was advised of a petroleum leak at the baseyard location for vehicle rental operations on the island of Oahu. A Phase I environmental assessment indicated that the soil and groundwater in certain portions of the baseyard had been materially impacted by the leakage of waste oil and petroleum products. The Company then initiated a Phase II environmental assessment to determine the extent of the petroleum and waste oil contamination. The Phase II assessment, together with the closure and removal of the waste oil storage tank was completed in 1994. During 1993, the Company recorded a reserve of $150,000 for the estimated future cost of the remedial efforts at the baseyard location. As of December 31, 1994, $49,000 remains in the reserve which the Company feels is adequate based on projections provided by the Company's environmental consultants. During November 1994, the Company received several citations from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) relating to one of its baseyard locations on the island of Hawaii. The most significant comment cited the Company for not performing certain acceptable leak and precision tightness procedures as part of its annual testing. The Company's environmental consultants who performed the tank test clarified the necessary procedures with the EPA and are working with the Company to ensure that proper testing procedures are performed for all of the Company's tanks. No leaks or contamination were discovered during the testing by the environmental consultants. On June 15, 1995, the Company received a notice of violation from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("USEPA") for several non-conformance issues relating to its Kauai facility. These violations have been corrected and the Company has received written confirmation of the corrective steps it has taken from the USEPA. In addition, the Company and Dollar discovered in the course of the due diligence conducted by Dollar's environmental advisors ground contamination at its Molokai facility which the Company has been advised by its environmental advisors could require remediation costs estimated to be between $50,000 and $100,000. APPLICATION OF FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS NO. 109 Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 ("FAS 109"), Accounting for Income Taxes, was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") in February 1992. FAS 109 changes the Company's method of accounting for income taxes from the deferred method (APB 11) to an asset and liability approach. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities. The Company adopted FAS 109 in January 1993. The adoption of FAS 109 did not result in an adjustment to the consolidated financial statements for the cumulative effect of a change in accounting for income taxes. Temporary differences resulting in deferred tax liabilities principally include rental fleet and related incentives. Temporary differences resulting in deferred tax assets include loss carryforwards, self insurance and fleet reserves, and bad debt reserves. A valuation allowance for the net deferred tax asset was established because of the uncertainty as to the Company's ability to generate future taxable income of an amount to ensure its recoverability. COMPANY AND PRICE WATERHOUSE TO ADDRESS ITEM 14 OF THE SEC COMMENT LETTER RELATING TO EFFECTS OF FAS 121 AND SAB TOPIC 11.M. INFLATION The Company has experienced the impact of inflation on operating and occupancy costs. Most of the Company's leases require the Company to pay taxes, maintenance, insurance, repairs and utility costs, all of which are subject to inflationary pressures. The Company has negotiated rate increases indexed to the consumer price index with certain of its major wholesale customers, and generally seeks to increase rental rates during periods of rising costs. THE COMPANY HAWAII ECONOMY AND TOURISM INDUSTRY Hawaii's year-round tropical climate and scenic resources support a tourism industry that attracted over 6.4 million tourists in 1994, an increase of 5% in the number of visitors from 1993, reversing a decline over the three years prior to 1994. The Hawaii Visitors Bureau ("HVB") reports that Hawaii had approximately 71,000 hotel rooms and condominium rental units as of December 31, 1994. In 1994, the average daily census of visitors in the State of Hawaii was approximately 158,000, aggregate annual visitor expenditures were estimated at $10.4 billion and the average length of stay of visitors was 8.9 days. Hawaii is served by many domestic and international air carriers, as well as a growing number of charter flights which added approximately 500,000 available seats during 1994. Hawaii also has three established interisland airlines. According to the Honolulu International Airport statistician, Hawaii's air carriers handled over 23 million enplaned and deplaned passengers during 1994, with an estimated 13.2 million interisland and 9.8 million overseas and transit passengers. Although availability of airlift to Hawaii is cited by some observers as a limiting factor, in the long run air seat capacity is mainly a function of market demand. Hawaii remains the most popular destination for airline frequent flyer program awards. The Company's passenger vehicle rental operation follows the general trend of the tourism industry with demand peaking during holiday periods and the summer months. Revenues from passenger vehicle rentals are affected by variables including general economic conditions, availability and pricing of scheduled and chartered airlift, competition from other destinations and vacation experiences such as cruise lines and gaming, the amount and effectiveness of industry-wide advertising and promotional efforts vis-a-vis consumers and the travel agency distribution system, and the overall pricing and value of the Hawaii vacation product. The City and County of Honolulu, Motor Vehicle Division, reports that during 1994 approximately 799,000 passenger motor vehicles were registered in the State of Hawaii of which approximately 69% were registered on the island of Oahu. According to the Hawaii Automobile Dealers' Association, new car and truck sales were approximately 83,000 units in 1994. PASSENGER VEHICLE RENTAL OPERATIONS The Company conducts its passenger vehicle rental operations at 14 customer service locations on the islands of Oahu, Maui, Kauai, Hawaii and Molokai in the State of Hawaii, which include terminal concession locations in the major airports on each island. The Company is also represented by an independent agent on the island of Lanai. See "Properties". The Company maintains a fleet of passenger vehicles consisting of compact, mid-size and full-size passenger vehicles, convertibles and minivans. The Company has vehicles in its rental fleet manufactured by all of the major domestic manufacturers and has no exclusive automobile purchasing relationships. Additionally during 1994, the Company purchased vehicles from Hyundai Motor America ("Hyundai"). For several years prior to 1994, GM and Ford were the Company's primary suppliers of rental fleet vehicles. The Company purchased nearly all of its rental fleet under these companies' respective repurchase programs, whereby vehicles purchased under these programs were subject to repurchase by the manufacturer at pre-determined prices, depending on the vehicles' length of service and condition at the time of return ("Repurchase Programs"). During 1993, Ford and GM reduced the overall number of 1994 model year fleet vehicles allocated to the car rental industry and significantly revised the eligibility requirements to obtain rental fleet under Repurchase Programs. The Company could no longer rely on Ford and GM for rental fleet vehicles which made it necessary for the Company to obtain an alternate primary source for its 1994 rental fleet vehicles. As a result, during the last half of 1993 and throughout 1994, the Company leased the majority of its 1994 model year vehicles from Dollar, which is a second-tier subsidiary of Chrysler. Dollar continues to be the Company's primary supplier of rental vehicles in 1995. Under Dollar's Fleet Leasing Program ("Lease Program"), lessees are responsible for returning vehicles to specified auctions on the U.S. mainland and are charged for applicable vehicle reconditioning costs, transportation charges, and mileage penalties. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Significant Transactions. During the year, the Company entered into a fleet relationship with Hyundai. The Company purchased vehicles on both a "risk" basis, whereby the Company assumes responsibility for vehicle disposal, and a GDP, whereby the manufacturer guarantees a maximum depreciation amount that any of its vehicles will incur over a stated period which fixes a vehicle's residual value when sold. Although there is no assurance that such fleet programs will continue, certain manufacturers have indicated that they expect similar programs to continue for the 1996 model year, despite cutbacks in the number of vehicles allocated to rental car companies under the 1995 model year programs. In addition to purchasing risk vehicles, the Company reclassifies portions of its non-risk rental fleet to risk resulting from either vehicles being rejected upon return to the manufacturer or credits and incentives offered by manufacturers to reclassify certain vehicle models. During 1994, the Company reclassified approximately 600 of its 1994 leased fleet to risk and received various credit incentives and allowances which minimized the carrying costs of the vehicles. In the prior year, the Company reclassified certain 1992 and 1993 model year GM Repurchase Program vehicles. The Company received certain incentive credits and fleet allowances in return for reclassifying these vehicles under the GM Long Term Risk Program. The Company operated these GM vehicles as part of its 1994 rental fleet and sold a majority of these vehicles throughout the year. In 1992, the Company also purchased subcompact vehicles under the Risk Program because these vehicles were not made available in sufficient quantities under manufacturers' repurchase programs. These vehicles were sold to the Company and included rebates consistent with the Risk Program and included certain freight concessions. The Company has been able to profitably dispose of its "risk" vehicle fleet. See "Rental Vehicle Disposition". On February 26, 1988, the Company acquired Compact. Compact was principally engaged in the rental of automobiles and trucks to military personnel at military bases on the island of Oahu under contracts with the U.S. Navy's and the U.S. Army/Air Force's exchange services. The Company decided to discontinue these operations upon the expiration of the various contracts, the last of which expired on March 31, 1993. Compact accounted for less than 3% of the Company's car rental revenue during 1992. The Company's rental vehicles, not all of which were on rent at the respective dates, totaled 5,228, 6,623, and 7,002 at December 31, 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively. The size of the Company's total fleet, however, varies during the course of each year, depending primarily upon demand factors and fleet considerations. RENTAL VEHICLE DISPOSITION Both the Lease and Repurchase Programs charge the Company for a portion of the transportation of the rental vehicles back to the U.S. mainland for sale. In addition, vehicle reconditioning charges are assessed in order to get the vehicles into saleable condition, and to a lesser extent mileage penalties are also assessed. GM and Ford repurchase all eligible model vehicles at an amount equal to the dealer cost, less the depreciation, freight, reconditioning, and mileage charges per vehicle. Dollar receives the leased vehicles at designated auctions and subsequently charges the Company for a portion of freight expenses, reconditioning costs, and mileage penalties, if applicable. Certain manufacturers have informed the Company that they expect Repurchase and Lease Programs to continue, although the holding cost of rental vehicles purchased under the program may increase and the number of vehicles offered under the programs may continue to decrease. Although the Repurchase Programs currently in effect provide the Company with an insufficient quantity of rental fleet vehicles, the Company believes Dollar's Lease Programs will be available to satisfy the Company's future rental fleet needs. Disposal of risk rental vehicles is the responsibility of the Company. During the year the Company profitably disposed of the remaining subcompact vehicles purchased in 1992 and the majority of the GM vehicles purchased in 1993. The Company's fleet plan has scheduled all risk vehicles to be sold by the end of 1995. AUTOMOBILE DEALERSHIPS On October 30, 1987, the Company acquired Cutter Jeep Renault, Inc., a Jeep Eagle dealership in Hawaii. The Company combined certain existing operations of Cutter Jeep Renault into a full-service car and truck dealership. The subsidiary's name was subsequently changed from Cutter Jeep Renault, Inc. to South Seas Motors, Inc. South Seas operates two locations on the island of Oahu, SSJE and OCJ. The Company leases a 62,000 square foot property at the corner of Nimitz Highway and Lagoon Drive near Honolulu International Airport for its SSJE automobile dealership. The lease expires in December 2002. During 1993, the Company subleased an 8,400 square foot property across the street from its SSJE dealership location and completed expansion of its service facility for this dealership. The sublease expires in December 2002. Management anticipates negotiating for renewal on a timely basis. During 1993, South Seas completed expansion of two service facilities at its dealerships located on Nimitz Highway and in Waipahu Industrial Park. The Company expects these facilities to be increasingly profitable over time based on the capacity to service large numbers of vehicles as business at both locations matures. South Seas financed these projects solely through working capital generated by its vehicle sales operations. As of December 31, 1994, South Seas had $574,000 of outstanding mortgage debt related to SSJE. In March 1992, South Seas entered into a lease of approximately 55,000 square feet of property in the Waipahu Industrial Park for OCJ. The lease, for which South Seas paid a lease premium of $450,000, expires in 2021. South Seas invested a total of $958,000, of which $800,000 was financed by the Bank of Hawaii, to acquire this leasehold and upgrade the facility to a full service operation. South Seas renovated the building located at the Waipahu Industrial Park and moved its Waipahu Jeep Eagle operations during August 1992. During 1992, Chrysler granted South Seas a Chrysler Plymouth franchise which complemented its existing Jeep Eagle operations at this location. As of December 31, 1994, South Seas had $609,000 outstanding of mortgage debt related to this location. South Seas leased approximately 28,300 and 8,500 square feet of property in Kaneohe on the island of Oahu. South Seas closed the dealership in Kaneohe in December 1993. The leases expire in 2003 and 1998, respectively. South Seas assigned the leases for both properties without losses on these assignments. During 1994, combined sales at SSJE and OCJ averaged approximately 81 new vehicles and 130 used vehicles per month. In 1993, combined retail sales at SSJE and OCJ averaged approximately 97 new vehicles and 160 used vehicles per month. The decrease in 1994 was mainly due to the limited availability of new Chrysler inventory during 1994 and the closure of a separate used car dealership in Kaneohe. For the first six months of 1995, combined retail sales at SSJE and OCJ averaged approximately 90 new vehicles and 157 used vehicles per month. The Company's car sales divisions reported revenues of $39,698,728 for the year ended December 31, 1994, a 9.8% decrease from the $43,987,934 in revenues recorded during 1993. Total new car sales decreased by 14.4% from 1993 levels. Chrysler new car sales alone decreased 33.7% mainly due to the lack of inventory resulting from product allocation restrictions instituted by Chrysler and shortages on most high-demand models. Although SSJE's location sold approximately 160 more new hyundai vehicles during 1994 as compared to 1993, the prices of new Hyundai cars are significantly less than Chrysler cars. Consequently the revenue from the increased Hyundai sales did not make up for the decreased Chrysler sales. Inventory shipments on certain models began to increase during the first six months of 1995, and management does not anticipate experiencing similar Chrysler inventory shortages during the rest of 1995. South Seas' increased revenues in 1993 over 1992 were a direct result of higher sales volume. During most of 1993, South Seas operated two full service vehicle dealership plus the Kaneohe temporary used-car facility, as compared to the prior year with one full service dealership and the satellite location in Waipahu, which was being developed through September 1992. Excluding the revenue generated by the Kaneohe dealership which closed in 1993, the division's revenue would have still increased $7,703,000 or 24.4%. The Company's vehicle sales divisions generated revenues of $22,697,361 for the six months ended June 30, 1995, as compared with $20,933,924 for the same period in 1994. Unit sales for the first half of 1995 were 1479, compared to 1333 in the prior year. New car sales for the six month period were about the same reaching 538 in 1995 versus 552 in 1994, while used car sales increased to 941 from 781 in 1994. For the first six months of 1995, operating income was $151,920. The Company's vehicle sales locations generated operating income of $67,000 in 1994, $470,000 in 1993, and $523,000 in 1992. Chrysler's lack of production and its restrictive distribution guidelines negatively impacted the Company's dealerships during 1994 by reducing sales inventories. This reduced sales inventory significantly impaired the dealerships' ability to maximize revenue and profitability as Chrysler new car sales for 1994, this increase did not offset the significant decrease in Chrysler unit sales because the revenue and gross profits generated from Hyundai unit sales are less then those generated from Chrysler unit sales. During 1993 the Company absorbed a $574,000 loss from its Kaneohe vehicle dealership. This loss included $137,000 which was incurred upon closure of the dealership and was classified as a non-operating expense. The Company closed this satellite dealership in December 1993 when it was unable to acquire a new car franchise for Kaneohe and determined that operating that location solely as a used car dealership would result in continuing losses. Unit sales volume during 1993 increased by 52.6% at the remaining two dealerships when compared to 1992. SSJE and OCJ are maturing dealerships and will exhibit gradual but significant changes in their business mix and profitability over the next two to five years. Management anticipates improvement in the dealerships' Customer Satisfaction Index ("CSI"), resulting from increased management attention, intensified training and expanded service facilities resulting in increased customer referrals and repeat business, as well as lowering advertising costs relative to sales volume. Management also anticipates continued growth of service, parts and warranty business at both dealerships. This is a function of past sales, the construction and expansion of parts and service facilities, and increases in sales volume. The contribution from service, parts and warranty departments will help to stabilize revenue and profitability over time. Gross profit in these departments increased from $1,128,103 in 1993 to $1,661,241 in 1994. Planned introduction of leasing would add another revenue segment without any material increase in overhead. Leasing has grown significantly and has become a major factor in the new car business and management anticipates that leasing could represent up to 10% of dealership revenues by the end of 1995. Although the overall economic outlook for the State of Hawaii is basically flat for the near-term (2-4 years), there are several factors that support a forecast for continued moderate growth at the Company's existing dealerships. At SSJE, sales to military personnel comprise a significant portion of sales volume, and the outlook for continued and even expanded military presence on leeward Oahu (including Pearl Harbor, Hickam Air Field, Schofield Barracks, etc.) is favorable. The outlook for interest rates, as they may affect car sales and related economic activity in Hawaii, appears reasonable. Chryslers' product line is vastly improved, and the new minivan line, Chrysler's flagship, has been very well received and all indications are that Chrysler products will continue to control the dominant share of the lucrative minivan market. The Hyundai product line has also been completely re-engineered since 1994, with the new Accent line replacing the entry-level Excel subcompact, the new Elantra providing a deluxe compact contender, and the new Sonata, fully competitive in the Accord/Camry class. As the only Hyundai dealer on Oahu and the leading dealer statewide, SSJE is in the best position to take advantage of these new products and the extensive national advertising undertaken by Hyundai Motor America. Hawaii is traditionally a very strong import market, and with the Yen likely to remain in a strong position vis a vis the U.S. dollar, the outlook for Hyundai sales is good. To capitalize on these opportunities, the Company's management will devote attention to maximizing sustained profitability at the Company's dealerships. Even though the dealerships represented about 50% of the Company's total revenues in the first half of 1995, the crisis at the Division has been the primary focus of the Company's attention. The first element of growth will be to focus on increased revenues and profit at the two existing Oahu locations, as described above. Management believes that the conditions for success are already in place including expanded facilities, upgraded customer service, improved sales management, and stronger financial planning and controls. From this base, management intends to seek opportunities to profit from the well-documented consolidation that is occurring in the automobile dealership industry. Over the past decade, many dealerships have either closed or been acquired by stronger management groups. Historically, the auto manufacturers have granted new-car franchises to individual dealers, many of which have passed from generation to generation, but not all of which have been able to adapt successfully to the up to date management approaches required today. The Company's operations and its capital base are most likely to arise in "secondary" markets on the U.S. mainland. The Company's management has been successful in identifying and securing three prime dealership locations in Hawaii and has established dealerships at two of these locations; however the Company was not able to secure a new car franchise for the third site, at Kaneohe on windward Oahu. Therefore the Company will systematically review other dealership acquisition opportunities as they arise, through factory and personal contacts. Management's philosophy will be to continue to groom dealership managers so that they will be qualified and motivated to become equity partners in acquired dealerships. Acquisitions may be made with a combination of cash, earn-out financing and stock. FLEET FINANCING The Company finances its rental vehicles through Dollar's leases, commercial financing sources, and the financing affiliates of GM and Ford. During 1994, a significant portion of the Company's rental fleet was leased through Dollar. South Seas and OCJ finance their new car inventory under $13,500,000 in lines of credit with Chrysler Credit Corporation. These loans bear interest at a floating rate equal to the prime rate plus 1%. Interest only is payable, with final maturity with respect to loans relating to vehicles of a particular model year occurring in August of the following year. The Company had outstanding as of June 30, 1995, December 31, 1994 and 1993, $9,258,000, $4,402,000 and $7,851,000, respectively, of financing under these lines of credit. South Seas and OCJ presently sell most retail paper to Chrysler Credit and Bank of Hawaii. The Company's interest rate on its fleet debt, for the most part, fluctuates with the "prime lending rate". Prime rate fluctuations affect monthly lease rates under the Lease Program. As such, the Company's fleet holding cost is very sensitive to major changes in interest rates. RENTAL VEHICLE LEASING Pursuant to terms of the Master Lease Agreement, Dollar agreed to lease to the Company vehicles for its rental fleet in accordance with the fleet mix requirements of its Lease Program. The Company leased approximately 4000 1994 model year Chrysler vehicles under the Lease Program and plans to lease approximately 4,300 1995 model year Chryslers for its 1995 fleet. The elements of the Lease Program offer delivery of the vehicles in Hawaii, incentive credits, rebates, fleet allowances and return of the vehicle contingent upon the condition of the vehicles when returned and whether the Company has held the vehicles for a specified minimum holding period. The Company's fleet holding cost per vehicle under the Lease Program is higher than that under the Repurchase Programs. During 1994 and in 1995, the Company secured certain assistance from Dollar to reduce the Company's fleet holding costs; however, the Company believes it is still incurring higher fleet holding costs relative to its competitors net fleet holding costs. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain assistance from Dollar in future years. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Significant Transactions." As of December 31, 1994, 1,900 vehicles in the Company's rental vehicle fleet were leased from Dollar. COMMERCIAL FLEET FINANCING As of December 31, 1994, the Company maintained various lines of credit with the Bank of Hawaii (the "Bank") which provided up to $19,984,000 in financing for its rental fleet vehicles. These credit lines were used for vehicles subject to manufacturer repurchase, vehicles purchased outside the repurchase programs ("risk vehicles"), and vehicles rejected upon turn back by the Company to the manufacturer. These loans bear interest at a floating rate equal to the prime rate plus 1% to 2.75%. Loans relating to vehicles subject to manufacturer repurchase are amortized at monthly rates ranging from 2% to 3% of the wholesale invoice cost of the financed vehicles. Loans relating to risk vehicles or relating to vehicles rejected upon turn back by the Company to the manufacturer are amortized in monthly installments equal to 3% of the wholesale invoice cost or refinanced balance. As of December 31, 1994 and 1993, $7,792,000 and $10,934,000, respectively, were outstanding with the Bank. Under the most restrictive covenants contained in one of the agreements in effect as of December 31, 1994, the Company was required to maintain a defined (i) minimum consolidated net worth; (ii) minimum working capital; (iii) minimum interest coverage ratio; and (iv) minimum cash flow coverage. The Company was not in compliance with certain of these covenants at December 31, 1994. However, as of June 30, 1995, the Company had decreased its outstanding balance under these credit lines to approximately $735,000 and the Company anticipates this balance to be paid off in the next several months. In addition, as part of its fleet plan for 1995, certain of the vehicles securing two of these credit lines were disposed of prior to July 1995 and the balance of such vehicles are scheduled for disposal over the next several months. The Company anticipates that the proceeds from the disposal of these vehicles will cover the amount outstanding under the related lines of credit. Consequently, the Company does not expect the Bank to declare it in default for noncompliance with these covenants, nor does it expect its operations or financial condition to be materially affected by such noncompliance. During 1994, the Company obtained a $15,000,000 line of credit with Finova to finance the Lease Program. These loans bear interest at a floating rate equal to the prime rate plus 1.75%. Loans relating to vehicles subject to the GDP are amortized at the monthly rate of 3% of the invoice cost of the financed vehicles. Loans relating to risk vehicles are amortized in monthly installments equal to 2.5% to 3% of the invoiced cost. As of December 31, 1994, the Company had $14,700,000 outstanding under this line. Under the most restrictive covenants contained in the Finova loan agreement in effect as of December 31, 1994, the Company was required to maintain a defined minimum consolidated net worth and a minimum debt service coverage ratio. The Company was not in compliance with certain of these covenants at December 31, 1994, but had obtained a written waiver from Finova regarding such non-compliance. As of June 30, 1995, the Company had $7,996,000 outstanding under the Finova loan agreement and still was not in compliance with certain of these covenants. At present no waiver is continuing in existence for these defaults. The Company is negotiating with Finova regarding these defaults and anticipates reaching a compromise prior to the Closing. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Financing." MANUFACTURER AFFILIATE FLEET FINANCING The Company receives its manufacturer affiliate financing for its rental vehicle fleet through General Motors Acceptance Corporation ("GMAC'), an affiliate of GM and Ford Motor Credit Company ("FMCC"), an affiliate of Ford. Pursuant to the terms of the loan agreement dated January 9, 1990, as amended for 1994, between the Company and GMAC, GMAC has agreed to make loans under revolving credit notes based upon the value of the vehicles purchased, to a maximum of $20,000,000. These loans bear interest at a floating rate equal to the prime rate plus 0.75% to 2%, and are due and payable in 15 to 24 months after the vehicles are placed in service. Loans relating to vehicles subject to manufacturer repurchase are amortized at monthly rates ranging from 1% to 1.6% of the wholesale invoice cost of the financed vehicles. Loans relating to vehicles not subject to manufacturer repurchase or relating to vehicles not accepted for repurchase are amortized in monthly installments equal to 2.5% of the wholesale invoice cost or refinanced balance. As of December 31, 1994 and 1993, $8,863,000 and $17,741,000 were outstanding under the agreement with GMAC. As of June 30, 1995, $550,000 was outstanding under the agreement with GMAC. The agreement with GMAC contains negative covenants restricting the Company's ability to, among other things, (i) incur liens, security interests or encumbrances with respect to any vehicles; (ii) declare any dividend or make any distribution to shareholders; (iii) merge or consolidate with any other company or dispose of all or substantially all of its assets; or (iv) acquire all or substantially all of the assets of another company. Pursuant to the terms of the Promissory Note dated December 23, 1983, as amended, from the Company to FMCC, FMCC agreed to make loans under security agreements based upon the value of the vehicles purchased, to a maximum of $7,500,000. These loans bear interest at a fixed rate equal to the prune rate in effect when the borrowing occurs plus 1% to 1.5%, and are due and payable 13 months after the vehicles are placed in service. Loans are amortized at rates ranging from 1.3% to 2.3% of the wholesale invoice cost of the financed vehicles. As of December 31, 1994 and 1993, $8,622,000 and $9,127,000 were outstanding under the agreement with FMCC. As of June 30, 1995, $281,000 was outstanding under the agreement with FMCC. The agreement with FMCC contains negative covenants restricting the Company's ability to, among other things, (i) guaranty the debt of others and (ii) merge or consolidate with any other company or dispose of all or a substantial portion of its assets. In addition, the agreement with FMCC requires the Company to maintain a specific debt to tangible net worth. As of June 30, 1995, the Company was not in compliance with certain of the covenants under the agreement with FMCC. Based upon the restrictive eligibility requirements imposed by GM and Ford which resulted in decreased rental fleet allocations for the Company, present financing needs required of both GMAC and FMCC are expected to be minimal. The Company has maintained favorable relationships with these entities in the past and expects to continue any financing agreements as necessary; however no assurance can be given that such agreements will be available. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Financing". AUTOMOBILE DEALERSHIP FINANCING South Seas and OCJ finance their new car inventory under lines of credit having aggregate availability of $13,500,000 with Chrysler Credit Corporation. These loans bear interest at a floating rate equal to the prime rate plus 1%. Interest only is payable, with final maturity with respect to loans relating to vehicles of a particular model year occurring in August of the following year. SSJE and OCJ collectively had outstanding as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, $4,402,000 and $7,851,000, respectively, of financing under these lines of credit. As of June 30, 1995, SSJE and OCJ collectively $9,258,000 outstanding under these lines of credit. Chrysler Credit Corporation has indicated that it no longer intends to continue to provide floor-plan financing for SSJE and OCJ. The Company intends to continue discussions with Chrysler Credit Corporation regarding this matter as well as exploring alternative floor-plan financing alternatives. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Financing". OTHER FINANCING Over the past two years, the Company completely replaced its computer systems for car rental reservations and accounting with an advanced rental customer computer software system developed jointly with a software development company. The system is fully operational at all rental locations. Lease financing covered most of the related expenditures and as of December 31, 1994, the Company had outstanding $656,000 of capital lease financing. Payments of $18,000 are made monthly, with the leases maturing in 1998. The Company, South Seas and OCJ collectively had outstanding as of December 31, 1994, $1,370,000 of mortgage loans owed to the Bank for the Company's baseyard facility on Oahu, and the dealership for SSJE and the facility for OCJ. Aggregate principal and interest payments for this mortgage loans of $29,500 are made monthly, with the mortgage loans maturing from June 1995 through February 1998. As of June 30, 1995, the Company had an outstanding balance of approximately $161,000 under the mortgage loan for its baseyard facility on Oahu, SSJE had an outstanding balance of approximately $578,000 under the mortgage loan for its dealership and OCJ had an outstanding balance of approximately $528,000 under the mortgage loan for its facility. The Company, SSJE and OCJ were not in compliance with certain of the covenants under these loans. The Company has received an extension until November 30, 1995 on the matured loans for the baseyard facility. OCJ has received an extension until November 30, 1995 on the matured loans for its facility. The Company had outstanding as of June 30, 1995, $416,000 of mortgage debt owed to First Hawaiian Bank ("First Hawaiian") for its baseyard facility in Kauai. Principal is amortized on a monthly basis with payments of $13,500 per month through October 1998. Under the most restrictive covenant of the related loan agreement, the Company is required to maintain a defined debt to net worth ratio. As of December 31, 1994, the Company was not in compliance with this covenant, but had obtained a written waiver from First Hawaiian regarding such non-compliance and as of June 30, 1995, the Company continued not to be in compliance with certain of the covenants thereunder. During 1993, the Company received a $500,000 loan from the United States Small Business Administration to cover losses resulting from Hurricane Iniki during September, 1992. The loan, which bears interest at the rate of 6%, is being amortized through October 1995 with total interest and principal payments of $17,000 per month. As of June 30, 1995, $76,000 of principal for this loan remained outstanding and the Company was not in compliance with certain of the covenants thereunder. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Financing." LICENSE The Company became the exclusive licensee of Dollar for the State of Hawaii pursuant to a license agreement dated April 3, 1974. In 1990, Dollar became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pentastar Corporation, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Chrysler Corporation. In 1988, Dollar granted the Company license rights in Japan, The Peoples' Republic of China, South Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Guam and other South and Western Pacific territories and countries ("Asian rights"). However the majority of these Asian rights were repurchased by Dollar in 1991. The balance of these rights were assigned to Dollar as part of the 1994 Assistance Agreement. The License was most recently modified pursuant to the terms of the 1994 Assistance Agreement, whereby Dollar Systems reduced the license fees payable by the Company to Dollar System during 1994 and also procured a Bond on behalf of the Company to satisfy the Company's self-insurance requirements. In connection with the issuance of the Bond, the Company assigned Dollar its receivable from the sale of the Asian rights as part of the collateral for the self-insurance surety Bond with the State of Hawaii. See "Dollar", "Insurance" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources". The License grants to the Company the right to conduct its "vehicle renting business" under the name Dollar Rent A Car and similar names. The License relates to the short-term rental of motor trucks, trailers and passenger vehicles. Pursuant to the License, Dollar provides the Company with necessary support and certain marketing and reservation assistance. Specifically, the Company benefits from Dollar's available resources and facilities, and Dollar's worldwide reservation system, advertising, publicity, public relations, sales promotion, and certain promotional materials. The License does not have a fixed term. The Company, however, does have the right to terminate the License at any time by giving 60 days prior written notice to Dollar. Dollar may terminate the License if the Company defaults in the performance of its obligations under the License and fails to cure its defaults within the period of time provided under the License. The License provides that it will terminate automatically if the Company attempts to assign its interest under the License without consent. In the event of termination, the License requires the Company to assign to Dollar, upon their request, all of its airport contracts, concessions, leases and other arrangements pertaining to the use of real estate, and provides that Dollar shall thereafter have the right to conduct vehicle rental operations at all such locations for its own benefit, or to designate another licensee. Such termination would also prohibit the Company from using all trade names, trademarks, signs, advertising, promotional materials and similar items of identification associated with Dollar. Any such termination would, of course, have a material adverse effect upon the Company and its operations. The License also affords Dollar certain rights of approval concerning members of management of the Company. In the event of the termination of employment of Alan M. Robin, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, the License provides that the Company shall within 90 days give Dollar written notice of the identity and qualifications of the person to be designated as Chief Executive Officer of the Company, subject to the consent of Dollar, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld. In the event Dollar reasonably determines that the person identified in such notice is not qualified, Dollar shall within 30 days notify the Company that it has elected to withhold its consent, and must specify m reasonable detail all deficiencies in the qualifications of such person upon which it has relied in making such determination. The License further provides that the procedure set forth above shall be repeated until the Company and Dollar have reached an agreement concerning the identity of the person to be designated as Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The Company pays Dollar a license fee which consists of a percentage of revenues adjusted for certain allowances and offsets. In addition, the Company pays for reservations made through Dollar's worldwide reservation system. INSURANCE During 1994, the Company was self-insured in the State of Hawaii with respect to statutory no-fault and auto liability claims up to $500,000 per occurrence resulting from accidents involving its rental vehicles. Claims were adjusted using Company employee adjusters, supervised by a Company employed licensed adjuster who also serves as the Company's risk manager. During February 1995, the Company elected to enroll with a commercial insurance carrier to cover all future statutory no-fault and auto liability claims. Under this policy, the Company maintains coverage for claims up to $500,000 per occurrence with a $25,000 deductible. The Company is self-insured for the amount of claims in excess of $500,000 per occurrence. In addition to the liability the Company may have for its own negligence, the Company also has liability to a renter of vehicles in Hawaii based upon the "no-fault" doctrine and to others based upon the "third party liability" doctrine. Under the no-fault doctrine, the Company's liability to renters, their passengers and pedestrians (including those on cycles or mopeds) is limited to $20,000 per person for medical expenses and wage losses. With respect to third party liability, the Company's liability is limited to $25,000 per injured claimant for bodily injury, and $10,000 property damage per accident. As of June 30, 1995, the Company's estimated reserve for self-insurance liability was 1,873,422. The Company believes that this reserve is adequate based upon historical information available. However, an increase in the cost of self-insured claims could adversely affect the Company's financial condition and results of operations. See note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company. As a self insured entity, the Company was required to post a surety bond or cash collateral with the Insurance Department of the State of Hawaii to maintain its self insurance certificate. As part of the 1994 Assistance Agreement Dollar procured the extension of a previously posted $3,400,000 bond (the "Bond") on behalf of the Company to meet these requirements. The Company is required to indemnify Dollar and certain of its affiliates in connection with the Bond. To secure the Company's indemnification of those parties, the Company: (i) assigned to Dollar its receivable from the sale of the Asian rights, (ii) assigned to Dollar its interest in the License, and (iii) granted to Dollar a junior mortgage covering the Company's leasehold interest in its SSJE and OCJ locations. See "Dollar" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources". MARKETING AND CUSTOMERS The Company's passenger vehicle rental customers consist principally of tourists, convention visitors and other group travelers, business people, and local residents. Vehicle rental bookings are made through travel industry distribution channels including retail agents and wholesale travel marketers such as tour operators, hotel chains, condominium management companies, airlines and ground operators as well as by walk-up customers at airport and in-town locations. The Company has focused much of its marketing efforts on developing marketing partnerships and contractual relationships with wholesale tour operators, hotels and airlines that provide pre-packaged travel arrangements to consumers through independent travel agents. Pre-packaged travel arrangements comprised approximately 50% of the Company's vehicle rentals in 1994, 1993 and 1992. Typically, such contracts are for a term of one to five years at net wholesale rates that reflect the Company's savings in marketing, advertising, and retail commission expense. These contracts provide tour operators the flexibility to include car rentals with air, hotel and other travel arrangements. The Company has an agreement with Pleasant Travel Service, a California corporation doing business as Pleasant Hawaiian Holidays ("Pleasant"), pursuant to which the Company has agreed to provide passenger rental vehicles to Pleasant's customers at special rates. Pleasant has agreed to use the Company for up to 475,000 vehicle rental days annually in connection with its published and advertised Hawaii tour packages that include the rental of a vehicle. Pleasant has been, and continues to be, a major tour operator in Hawaii. Pleasant currently makes travel arrangements for approximately 20,000 tourists to Hawaii per month. The agreement with Pleasant extends through December 15, 1997, is renewable and may be terminated by either party without cause upon one year's notice and by Pleasant upon 90 days notice if the Company defaults in the performance of its obligations and fails to cure the default within a 30-day period following receipt of a notice of such default. Pleasant is not required to use the Company as its exclusive rental car supplier; however the Company has fulfilled nearly all of Pleasant's requirements since the inception of this agreement in 1982. During 1994, 1993 and 1992 revenues generated under the agreement with Pleasant were approximately $8,390,000, $5,183,000, and $5,815,000, respectively, exclusive of charges to individual renters for loss damage waivers, gasoline and upgrades. These amounts represented approximately 15.5%, 9.6%, and 11.5% of the Company's vehicle rental revenued in those years, respectively. The increase in 1994 is attributable to Pleasant's startup of scheduled air service from the west coast operated by American Trans Air ("ATA"). ATA provided Pleasant with approximately 200,000 available air seats to Hawaii pursuant to a multi-year agreement. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will continue to realize sales volume at this level from the Pleasant arrangement, or that if such revenues are realized, that they will generate profits. In order to obtain maximum benefits from these sources, the Company has begun to devote additional manpower and data processing resources to monitor these sources and adjust rates more frequently to compete in these markets. By implementing yield management systems and exercising greater control over inventory allocation and price movements, management expects continued improvement in fleet utilization and prices. Due to higher fleet related costs and reduced availability of inventory, the Company's marketing efforts during 1994 emphasized increasing rates and yield and greater selectivity in acquiring and assigning inventory to travel industry accounts. The Company pays commissions to travel agencies on this retail business at competitive commission levels, generally based on volume. The Company also pays the Licensor a fee for each reservation received. The Company receives certain marketing support from the Licensor. The Company also conducts limited consumer and travel trade advertising throughout the State of Hawaii, on the U. S. mainland and in Japan. The Company also participates in model year advertising programs funded by Chrysler. Such programs support both the Company's direct promotional efforts, as well as cooperative advertising programs with certain wholesale customers both within and outside the State of Hawaii. The Company contracts with a general sales agency for sales support in Japan. COMPETITION The vehicle rental industry in the State of Hawaii is highly competitive. The vehicle rental companies as a group compete with bus tours, mini-bus tours and public transportation. All of the major national companies, including Hertz, Avis, National, Budget and Alamo, operate in Hawaii, as well as various independently owned vehicle rental businesses. The major competitors of the Company each have substantially greater resources than the Company and, unlike the Company, are neither licensees nor franchisees. These competitors have the ability to provide additional resources to their Hawaii operations and to subsidize their Hawaii operations with funds generated from other locations. The Company's vehicle sales operations compete with other new and used car dealerships on the island of Oahu. The Company competes with two other Jeep Eagle dealerships, one other Chrysler Plymouth dealership and many other new car dealerships that sell vehicles manufactured by other domestic and foreign manufacturers. Certain dealers have greater resources, hold multiple dealerships and are therefore able to devote more advertising dollars to their dealership operations. EMPLOYEES As of December 31, 1994, the Company had approximately 453 full and part time employees, of which 104 were employed at South Seas. The Company has no collective bargaining obligations or agreements and management considers relations with its employees to be generally good. GOVERNMENT REGULATION The vehicle rental and sales industries in Hawaii are subject to federal, state, and local government regulations generally applicable to bus and vehicle owners, including those relating to licensing and safety of vehicles, the sale of loss damage waivers, new and used vehicle sales, and environmental protection. The Company's counter spaces and operational facilities at the Honolulu International Airport are leased from the Department of Airport Properties, a division of the State Department of Transportation. The Company's counter spaces and operational facilities at other airports are leased from the respective airport authorities in the counties of Kauai, Maui and Hawaii. (See THE COMPANY; Properties.) The Company has seven underground and one above ground petroleum product storage tanks and one underground waste oil storage tank on its properties. The Company is subject to the federal and state laws governing the ownership and operation of these storage tanks. These laws require the Company to test periodically the integrity of these tanks and to mitigate or remedy the environmental effects of any releases of products from the storage tanks. In 1993, the Company was advised of a petroleum leak at the baseyard location for vehicle rental operations on the island of Oahu. The closure and removal of the waste oil storage tank was completed in 1994. The Company has recorded adequate reserves in anticipation of any further remedial efforts at the baseyard location. During November 1994, the Company received several citations from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) relating to one of its baseyard locations on the island of Hawaii. The most significant comment cited the Company for not performing certain acceptable leak and precision tightness procedures as part of its annual testing. The Company's environmental consultants who performed the tank test clarified the necessary procedures with the EPA and are working with the Company to ensure that proper testing procedures are performed for all of the Company's tanks. No leaks or contamination were discovered during the testing by the environmental consultants. The Company does not expect to be materially affected by the Americans With Disabilities Act because it has the ability to service disabled persons from its "on airport" locations and these airports will be required to be in compliance with that Act. In 1992, certain legislation was enacted in the State of Hawaii which has an impact on the Company's self insurance program. Under this legislation, the Company's maximum insurance obligation with respect to No Fault medical and wage loss payments was increased from $15,000 to $20,000 per claimant. Bodily injury liability insurance provided to drivers of the Company's vehicles was reduced from $35,000 per claimant to $25,000 per claimant. In addition, the payment of medical expenses related to No Fault coverage incurred after January 1, 1993 is subject to a fee schedule, which has reduced the No Fault payments required by the Company by about 15% for 1993 as compared to 1992. Under these laws, medical treatment is also subject to frequency guidelines which should further reduce the Company's costs. During 1993 and 1994 no legislation was passed in the Hawaii legislature which would result in significant additional costs for the Company and its major competitors and eventually result in increases in the price that vehicle rental companies charge their customers. PROPERTIES As of December 31, 1994, the Company operated from 14 customer service locations on the islands of Oahu, Maui, Kauai, Hawaii and Molokai in the State of Hawaii. The Company believes that its concessions, baseyards and other facilities are adequate for its business operations for the next two to three years. During 1994, the Company's fixed and minimum rent expense amounted to $3,934,000. In addition, the Company paid percentage rent of $2,201,000. See note 15 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company. OAHU PROPERTIES The Company operates its airport counter spaces, baseyard, and other facilities at the Honolulu International Airport under a concession with the State of Hawaii which expires in February 1998. The concession provides the Company with 15,000 square feet for its washing, fueling and maintenance area, and 131 rental car parking spaces. The Company also operates a baseyard facility on Oahu which it leases from the State of Hawaii. The baseyard facility's permanent improvements consist of office space, repair and maintenance facilities, fueling facilities, and vehicle washing and parking space. The Company, along with the other car rental companies which occupy similar baseyard facilities in the immediate area, renewed its lease term through February 1998. The Company's Waikiki rental operations are based at two facilities. Its vehicle rental and storage facility is located in the Island Colony Hotel, at which the Company has a lease expiring in October 1997. The Company's other Waikiki facility, which the Company began leasing in March 1993, includes vehicle return space, washing facilities, a minor repair facility, and vehicle parking space. The facility is operated on 26,400 square feet of property located on Kalakaua Avenue. The original lease term expired in October 1995. The Company began operating under a month to month lease effective November 1, 1995. The landlord for this property is currently undergoing a reorganization pursuant to Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code and the Company is negotiating with the debtor in possession to obtain a month to month lease with a 120 day cancellation notice. The Company has received no indication that it will be asked to vacate this property. The Company also operates vehicle rental counter space and vehicle storage facilities at seven major Waikiki hotels. The Company leases approximately 13,600 square feet of office space which it uses for its corporate and reservation Operations. The lease was renewed during 1994 and expires in July 2000. The Company leases a 62,000 square foot property at the comer of Nimitz Highway and Lagoon Drive near the Honolulu International Airport for its SSJE automobile dealership. The lease was amended to expire in December 2002. During 1993 the Company subleased a 8,400 square foot property across the of its dealership location and completed expansion of its service facility for this dealership. The sublease expires in December 2002. See "THE COMPANY - Automobile Dealerships". The Company leases approximately 55,000 square feet of property in the Waipahu Industrial Park for its OCJ dealership. The lease expires in March 2021. During 1992, the Company renovated the building located at this location and moved its Waipahu operations to the renovated building. See "THE COMPANY - Automobile Dealerships". The Company leased approximately 28,300 and 8,500 square feet of property in Kaneohe which was previously used for its South Seas Motors dealership, which was closed at the end of 1993. The leases expire in October 2003 and August 1998, respectively. During 1994 the Company assigned the leases for each facility. See "THE COMPANY - Automobile Dealerships". The Company also leases smaller facilities which are used for service facilities for its OCJ and South Seas Motors dealerships. See "THE COMPANY - Automobile Dealerships". MAUI PROPERTIES The Company has concessions from the State of Hawaii at the Kahului, Maui airport for counter space and ready spaces, and a lease for a fully equipped baseyard facility in Kahului. The concessions and baseyard leases in Kahului expire in December 1998. The Company leases a fully equipped baseyard at the Kaanapali Transportation Center which expires in May 1997. The Company also operates vehicle rental counter space and vehicle storage facilities at a major hotel near the Kaanapali Resort. During March 1994, the Company terminated its lease expiring in July 2004 for a 31,000 square foot parcel in Kahului, at which the Company previously operated a car sales lot. The Company did not incur a significant expense associated with this termination and it completed settlement of all claims in connection therewith in November 1994. ISLAND OF HAWAII PROPERTIES The Company has concessions from the State of Hawaii at the airports located in Hilo and Kona for counter space and ready space. These concessions expire in December 1998. The Company also leases baseyard facilities in Hilo and Kona. The Hilo lease was renewed during the year and expires in September 1999; the Kona lease expires in December 1998. At these baseyards, the Company has office space, maintenance facilities, fueling facilities, vehicle washing and parking. KAUAI PROPERTIES The Company has concessions from the State of Hawaii at the airport located in Lihue for counter space and ready spaces and licenses a three-acre parcel which the Company uses for its offices, baseyard and repair, wash and fuel facilities. The concession and base yard leases expire in December 1998. LEASES WITH THE HAWAII DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION The Company is currently in discussions with the Hawaii Department of Transportation (the "DOT") regarding several lease issues. As of October 28, 1995, the Company had been billed approximately $2,200,000 in respect of its leases with the DOT (excluding the quarterly aggregate rental payment in the amount of approximately $546,000 due in November 1995). As part of its due diligence in connections with requests from the Company for consents to the Proposed Sale, the DOT discovered a parcel in Maui which has been subject to a lease in favor of the Company but for which the Company had not been previously billed. The DOT has indicated that it is seeking back rent of $20,000 per calendar quarter from January 1, 1994 forward from the Company in respect of this property. The DOT is also presently engaged in discussions with the major Hawaii rental car operators regarding proposed increases in ground rents and operating rents owed by such companies. The proposed rent increases, which the DOT is seeking to have retroactively effective to January 1, 1994, could result in liabilities to the Company of approximately $40,000 per quarter for its leases with DOT in Maui and approximately $75,000 per quarter for its leases with DOT in Kona, Hawaii, Molokai and Kauai. Dollar has made a proposal to DOT to pay $2,000,000 in respect of the presently billed lease payments and in October 1995 the DOT applied a $288,000 letter of credit to these billed amounts. The DOT is being asked to accept these amounts in satisfaction of the billed amounts and to agree not to pursue its claims with respect to the newly discovered Maui leased property or the proposed rent increases for the period preceding the Closing. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Except for the Pending Cases, the Company is not a party to any litigation which it believes will have a material adverse impact on its operations. At June 30, 1995, the Company's reserve for the future payment of claims and expenses incurred in connection with the Company's self-insurance program was $1,873,446. PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDERS The following table sets forth, as of the Record Date, the beneficial ownership of each person (including any "group" as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) who is known by the Company to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the Company's outstanding common Stock. Unless otherwise indicated, each person listed has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares beneficially owned.

PACIFIC INTERNATIONAL SERVICES CORP. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Company does business as Dollar Rent A Car under an exclusive license for the State of Hawaii with Dollar Systems, Inc. ("Dollar Systems") and also operates two automobile dealership which sell Chrysler, Jeep, Eagle and Hyundai vehicles. The Company incurred consolidated losses of $1,427,000, $804,000 and $2,105,000 in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. The Company's vehicle rental and vehicle sales segments have been adversely impacted by the overall sluggish Hawaiian economy for the past few years. Additionally, during 1994 increased fleet costs and new car inventory shortages along with increases in other operating costs combined to adversely impact the Company's operations and cash flows. Management has taken action to improve the financial condition of the Company by adding products at car rental counters to increase average daily rental yields, minimizing increases in fleet holding costs by increasing utilization and purchasing lower cost vehicles, and reducing labor and other operating expenses. Additionally, the Company is attempting to increase its retail rental volume with additional advertising and marketing support from Dollar Systems. Furthermore, the Company has been able to secure financial assistance from Dollar Systems during 1994 and in 1995 to alleviate some of the increased rental fleet costs and remedy some of the Company's cash flow problems (see note 15). Management believes that these actions will help to alleviate the cash flow and operating difficulties currently facing the Company. Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and it's wholly-owned subsidiaries. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Recognition of Vehicle Rental Revenue The Company recognizes income based on completed rental agreements and on management's estimate of the earned portion of rental agreements for vehicles on rent at the end of each accounting period. Interest on Fleet Debt Interest on fleet debt includes interest on debt incurred to maintain both the rental vehicles and the automobile dealership vehicle inventories. Inventories Automobile dealership vehicle inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, cost being determined on the specific identification basis. Parts and other inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, cost being determined on the first-in first-out basis. Rental Vehicles Rental vehicles are recorded at their wholesale invoice cost and are depreciated on a straight-line basis consistent with the vehicle manufacturers' repurchase program specifications. Depreciation rates vary from 1% to 3% of the capitalized cost per month. Related fleet rebates and allowances are amortized over the average holding period of the rental fleet and are credited against depreciation expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Gains or losses on sales or turnbacks of rental vehicles to the manufacturers, including unrealized loss reserves are included in the line item depreciation of rental vehicles on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Vehicles sold by the Company's automobile dealerships are reported as vehicle sales and cost of vehicles sold. Furniture, Equipment and Leasehold Improvements Furniture and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated on a straight- line basis over their estimated useful lives of 5 to 7 years. Leasehold improvements are recorded at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis generally over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the related lease term of 10 to 18 years. Intangible Assets Intangible assets including goodwill, franchise rights and debt issue costs aggregating $1,366,000, net of accumulated amortization of $521,000, is included in other assets and is amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 10 to 40 years. Balance Sheet Classification Consistent with industry practice, and the nature of its most significant assets and liabilities, the Company does not classify its balance sheet into current or long-term categories. Cash Equivalents For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents as of December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992 represent certificates of deposit and money market accounts aggregating $150,000, $466,000 and $3,434,000, respectively. Cash and certificates of deposit of $288,000 at December 31, 1994 are pledged against certain airport leases with the State of Hawaii and are included in other assets. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications were made to the 1993 and 1992 financial statements to conform to the 1994 presentation. Additionally, cash flows related to the assumption and reduction of senior debt, and the acquisition and turnback or sale of rental vehicles and automobile dealership vehicle inventories for 1992 have been reclassified to better reflect the effect of non-cash transactions as it relates to the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. These items are included in the supplemental disclosures of cash flow information. 2.

Under the most restrictive covenants contained in the bank's and financing company's loan agreements, the Company is required to maintain a defined cash flow, debt service coverage ratio, and tangible net worth. As of December 31, 1994, the Company was not in compliance with certain of these covenants, but has obtained a written waiver from the financing company regarding such non-compliance. The Company is working to correct the default under its loan agreements with the bank. The Company does not expect its operations or financial position to be adversely affected by such non-compliance based upon its scheduled disposal/sale of rental fleet vehicles which fully secure the debt. Vehicle Sales Debt The Company has a $8,250,000 credit agreement with the credit affiliate of a major automobile manufacturer to cover the financing of new car and truck inventories. Interest only is payable at the credit affiliate's prime lending rate plus 1% with final maturity with respect to loans relating to vehicles of a particular model year occurring in August of the following year. The interest rate in 1994 and 1993 under this agreement ranged from 7.25% to 9.5% and 7%, respectively. Borrowings under this agreement totaled $4,402,000 and $7,851,000 at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The credit agreement prohibits the payment of dividends or other distributions by South Seas Motors, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. At December 31, 1994 restricted net assets of South Seas aggregated $3,547,000. Other Debt The Company has outstanding as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, $1,370,000 and $1,597,000, respectively, of mortgage bank debt related to its baseyard facility on Oahu, its South Seas Jeep Eagle dealership and its Oahu Chrysler Jeep facility. Principal and interest payments of $29,500 are made monthly and the mortgage debt matures from June 1995 through February 1998. The Company has outstanding as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, $474,000 and $590,000, respectively, of mortgage bank debt relating to its baseyard facility in Kauai. Principal and interest are paid on a monthly basis with payments of $13,500 per month through October 1998. Under the most restrictive covenant of the related loan agreement, the Company is required to maintain a defined debt to net worth ratio. As of December 31, 1994, the Company was not in compliance with certain covenants contained in these agreements, but the Company has obtained written waivers through December 31 1995 from each bank regarding such non- compliance. The Company has outstanding as of December 31, 1994, $513,000 of debt owned to Dollar Systems related to an advance of $1,400,000 of lease obligations during 1994. Principal reductions were made by way of an assignment of incentive credits and fleet allowances owed by Dollar Systems to the Company. The balance outstanding will be consolidated as part of the Dollar Systems' assistance package (see note 15). The Company has outstanding as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, $176,000 and $367,000, respectively, from the United States Small Business Administration to cover losses suffered during Hurricane Iniki in September 1992. The loan bears interest at 6% per year, principal and interest payments of $17,000 per month and matures in October 1995. Pursuant to the terms of a credit agreement dated June 26, 1991 (the "Credit Agreement") between the Company and Bank of Hawaii (the "Bank"), the Bank advanced funds in the amount of $1,285,000 at the Bank's base rate plus 2.5%. The proceeds of the loan were used to complete an exchange offer. See "Subordinated Debentures; 1991 Exchange." The loan was secured by certain real property leasehold interests of the Company. The loan was paid off in January 1993. Convertible Subordinated Debentures In October 1987, the Company sold $17,250,000 of 10% convertible subordinated debentures (the "Debentures"). The Debentures were issued under an Indenture dated as of September 1, 1987 ("Indenture") between the Company and Trust Services of America, Inc. ("Trust Services"), as Trustee. Chemical Trust Company currently serves as Trustee under the Indenture. The Debentures represent unsecured general obligations of the Company. The Company pays interest only on the Debentures semi-annually on March 1 and September 1 of each year. The Debentures mature on September 1, 2007. The holders of Debentures are entitled at any time on or before September 1, 2007 to convert the Debentures into Common Stock of the Company at $3.30 per share, subject to certain conditions. The Indenture requires the Company to redeem, through a mandatory sinking fund commencing on September 1, 1994, and on each succeeding September 1, Debentures with an aggregate principal amount equal to five percent of the original principal amount of the Debentures issued under the Indenture, at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus interest accrued to the redemption date. Debentures acquired and delivered, converted or redeemed by the Company, other than through the mandatory sinking fund, may be used, at the principal amount thereof, to reduce the amount of any mandatory sinking fund payment. In July 1991, the Company exchanged (the "Exchange") 2,916,000 shares of its Common Stock and $3,840,000 for $12,000,000 principal amount of Debentures pursuant to the terms of an exchange offer. As a result of the Exchange, sinking fund requirements have been satisfied. The payment of principal and interest on the Debentures are subordinated in right to the payment of all senior debt of the Company. Other Financing Information The aggregate maturities of senior debt for each of the five years subsequent to December 31, 1994 are as follows: 1995, $36,201,000; 1996, $10,727,000; 1997, $464,000; 1998, $565,000; and 1999, $77,000. Vehicle loans may be retired early, which in each instance, will accelerate maturity. 5. OPERATING REVENUES Operating revenues include Hawaii General Excise Tax ("GET") and, in 1994 and 1993, Hawaii Motor Vehicle Rental Surcharge ("Surcharge") collected from customers. The amounts remitted to the State of Hawaii are included in other direct operating expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. A breakdown of these tax and surcharge revenues is as follows: Year Ended December 31, 1994 1993 1992 ----------- ----------- ----------- GET and Surcharge relating to vehicle rental revenue $ 5,173,037 $ 5,283,390 $ 5,297,890 GET related to vehicle sales revenue 1,275,370 1,276,707 933,282 ----------- ----------- ----------- Total GET and Surcharge included in revenues $ 6,448,407 $ 6,560,097 $ 6,231,172 =========== =========== =========== Revenue from the sale of loss damage waivers totaled $3,644,000, $3,378,000, and $3,624,000 in 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively, and are included in vehicle rental revenue. 6. OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSES Year Ended December 31, 1994 1993 1992 ----------- ----------- ---------- Hurricane damages to rental vehicles $ (25,000) $ (106,495) $ (427,000) Gain from involuntary conversion of equipment and leasehold improvements resulting from hurricane - - 169,000 Loss related to termination of Compact Rent A Car - (87,198) (118,000) Loss related to the sale/ closure of automobile dealership - (136,720) (109,444) Termination of lease (135,000) - - Real estate investment expense (70,918) (65,464) (65,464) Other (40,800) (20,754) (69,526) ------------ ----------- ------------ Total $ (271,718) $ (416,631) $ (620,434) ============ =========== ============ 7. SELF-INSURANCE As of December 31, 1994, the Company was self-insured with respect to no-fault and auto liability claims on its rental vehicles in the State of Hawaii for up to $500,000 per occurrence. In accordance with its self-insurance certificate from the State of Hawaii, the Company furnished a $3,400,000 bond as security with the Hawaii Insurance Commissioner. The bond was arranged by Dollar Systems, which was granted a security interest in the Company's license agreement ("License") to secure the Company's performance. In addition to an assignment of the Company's security interest in the License as collateral, the Company also assigned to Dollar Systems its receivable from the sale of the Asian Franchise Rights ("Asian Rights") and granted Dollar Systems a junior mortgage of its leasehold interest in its South Seas Jeep Eagle and Oahu Chrysler Jeep locations (see note 15). During February 1995, the Company elected to enroll with a commercial insurance carrier to handle all future no fault and auto liability claims. Under its policy, the Company maintains coverage up to $500,000 with a $25,000 deductible. The Company maintains insurance for claims in excess of $500,000 with liability limits of $500,000 per occurrence, which is underwritten by a third party insurance company. The Company is self-insured for any loss in excess of $1,000,000 per occurrence. The Company does not intend to renew its excess policy when it expires on March 31, 1995. As of December 31, 1994 and 1993, the Company's reserve for self-insurance (including the reserve for future legal expense) was $3,011,000 and $2,807,000, respectively. Self insurance expense for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992 was $2,267,000, $3,159,000, and $4,791,000 respectively. The Company is also self-insured for collision and comprehensive losses on its rental vehicles. In most cases, the renter's personal automobile policy protects the Company against physical damage to Company vehicles by the renter. The Company provides a limited physical damage waiver to renters who purchase Loss Damage Waivers ("LDW"). The effect of LDW is to waive a portion of the renters' responsibility for physical damage to Company vehicles. As of December 31, 1994 and 1993, the Company's reserve for collision damage was $421,000 and $515,000, respectively. 8. INCOME TAXES In January 1993, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (FAS 109), Accounting for Income Taxes. The adoption of FAS 109 changes the Company's method of accounting for income taxes from the deferred method (APB 11) to an asset and liability approach. Previously the Company deferred the past tax effects of timing differences between financial reporting and taxable income. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of those assets and liabilities. The adoption of FAS 109 did not result in an adjustment for the cumulative effect of a change in income taxes. No income taxes were provided during the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1992 based on losses sustained for financial reporting and income tax purposes. The 1993 provision for income taxes principally represents current federal alternative minimum tax. Deferred tax assets (liabilities) are comprised of the following: December 31, 1994 1993 ---------- ---------- Rental fleet $(3,154,000) $(1,040,700) Rental fleet incentives (723,000) (322,300) ----------- ------------ Gross deferred tax liabilities (3,877,000) (1,363,000) ----------- ------------ Loss carryforward 4,616,000 1,020,900 Self insurance reserve 1,217,000 934,500 Bad debt reserve 245,000 175,700 Rental fleet reserves 170,000 335,500 Inventory 124,000 132,600 ---------- --------- Gross deferred tax assets 6,372,000 2,599,200 ---------- --------- Net deferred tax assets 2,495,000 1,236,200 Deferred tax assets valuation allowance (2,495,000) (1,236,200) ========== ========== $ - $ - ========== ========== The net increase of $1,259,000 in the valuation allowance for deferred taxes relates primarily to net operating losses generated in 1994. The principal component of the valuation allowance relates to the uncertainty of realizing certain deferred tax assets related to loss carryforwards. The differences between the expected provision for income tax at the Federal statutory rate and income tax expense reported are summarized as follows: Year Ended December 31, 1994 1993 1992 ---------- ----------- ---------- Expected tax benefit at 34% $(485,000) $(201,500) $(715,500) State taxes net of Federal income tax benefit (57,000) (25,000) (77,200) Net operating loss for which no benefit has been recognized 542,000 226,500 738,800 Alternative minimum tax - 130,000 - Other - 81,443 53,900 --------- ---------- --------- $ - $211,443 $ - ========= ========== ========= As of December 31, 1994, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards for Federal and State income tax purposes of approximately $10,000,000 and $8,900,000, respectively, which expire from 2005 through 2009. The Tax Reform Act of 1986 imposes certain conditions and possible limitations on the future availability of net operating loss carryforwards, including annual limitations on the amount of the carryforwards which could be utilized arising from substantial changes in the Company's ownership. At the request of the State of Hawaii Department of Taxation, the Company agreed to extend the statutory limitation period prescribed under the Hawaii Revised Statutes related to certain general excise (GET), use and corporate income tax returns. Accordingly, its 1986 - 1989 GET and use tax returns and its 1990 corporate tax return remain open for adjustments through June 30, 1996. The State of Hawaii has indicated its intent to audit the Company's tax returns for open years. Management does not anticipate any exposure to material assessments of additional tax in excess of $250,000; however, the Hawaii State Department of Taxation has not yet completed audit fieldwork. Accordingly, the outcome of the audit is uncertain at this time. 9. STOCK OPTION PLANS During 1994, the Company established a new incentive stock option plan under which options to purchase up to 200,000 shares of Common Stock may be granted. Under this plan, the option exercise price is equal to 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. Options for 50,000 shares of Common Stock remain outstanding under this plan as of December 31, 1994. The Company's original incentive stock option plan expired on May 3, 1993. Options for 100,000 shares of Common Stock remain outstanding under this plan as of December 31, 1994 and expire in September 1995. During 1994, the Company also established a new non-statutory stock option plan under which options to purchase up to 200,000 shares may be granted. Under this plan, the exercise price of any option granted shall not be less than the lesser of 85% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant or 85% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of exercise. The original non-statutory stock option plan terminated on June 20, 1994. No options are outstanding under either plan as of December 31, 1994. As of December 31, 1993, the Company had outstanding non-recourse promissory notes totaling $1,139,000 from optionees in connection with the exercise of their options to acquire 929,500 shares of Common Stock. Included in the non-recourse notes, were notes in the aggregate principal amount of $554,000 from current executive officers and/or directors of the Company. Exercise prices on these shares ranged from $1.06 to $2.12 per share. The promissory notes matured on July 11, 1994 on which date the market value of the Company's Common Stock was $.81 per share. No payments were received on these notes, and accordingly, the Company canceled these shares of outstanding Common Stock. Proceeds from the exercise of options are credited to Common Stock to the extent of $0.10 per share and the balance credited to additional paid-in capital. Under its non-statutory plan, benefits relating to the excess of quoted market value on the measurement date over the selling price are charged to compensation expense and credited to additional paid-in capital. Activity under both stock option plans is summarized as follows: Options Outstanding ------------------------------------------------ Shares Price Per Share Amount ------------- ---------------- ------------- December 31, 1991 153,000 $0.56 to $2.38 $ 182,140 Expired (53,000) 2.38 (126,140) ------------- ---------------- ------------- December 31, 1992 100,000 0.56 56,000 Granted 50,000 0.25 12,500 ------------- ---------------- ------------- December 31, 1993 150,000 0.25 to 0.56 68,500 Expired (50,000) 0.25 (12,500) Granted 50,000 0.43 21,500 ------------- ---------------- ------------- December 31, 1994 150,000 $0.43 to $0.56 $77,500 ============= ================ ============= As of December 31, 1994 and 1993, options for 350,000 and 935,000 shares, respectively, were available for grant. As of December 31, 1994, options for 100,000 shares were exercisable at prices ranging from $.43 to $.56 per share. 10. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The Company had a consulting agreement with Paul J. Finazzo, a member of the Company's Board of Directors and its former Chairman, which expired on December 31, 1994 and provided for consulting fees of $180,000 per year. A company purchased in August 1992 by Stanley Heller, a member of the Company's Board of Directors and a former officer of the Company, is a wholesale customer of the Company's vehicle rental operations. This company paid the Company a net $1,577,000, $2,504,000 and $2,151,000 in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively, for vehicle rentals at prevailing wholesale rates. The Company paid Mr. Heller consulting fees of $24,000 during each of the years 1994, 1993 and 1992. Certain companies owned by Raymond I. Miyashiro, a member of the Company's Board of Directors, are wholesale customers of the Company's vehicle rental operations. These companies paid the Company $1,239,000 in 1994, $979,000 in 1993, and $480,000 in 1992 for vehicle rentals at prevailing wholesale rates. During 1993, the Company also sold transportation vehicles for a total of $343,000 to a transportation company owned by Mr. Miyashiro. During 1994, 1993 and 1992, the Company purchased $15,000, $27,000, and $33,000 respectively, of airline tickets at prevailing market rates from a travel agency owned by Mr. Miyashiro. During 1994, 1993 and 1992, the Company paid $123,000, $125,000 and $86,000, respectively, for legal services to a law firm of which J. George Hetherington, a member of the Company's Board of Directors, is a shareholder. At December 31, 1993, Alan M. Robin, Stanley S. Heller and Robert L. Solomon owed the Company $212,000, $212,000 and $130,000, respectively, pursuant to non-recourse promissory notes due in 1994 issued in exchange for shares of Common Stock under the Company's 1983 ESOP (note 9). These notes were allowed to lapse and, as a result, the shares of Common Stock issued in relation to these notes were canceled in 1994. The Company sold used vehicles for an aggregate consideration approximating $56,000 in 1992, to a company controlled by the son of the Company's President. 11. MAJOR CUSTOMER The Company has an agreement, to provide rental vehicles, with a major tour operator which expires in December 1997. Vehicle rental revenues, exclusive of optional charges arranged between the Company and the renter, for loss damage waivers, gasoline, vehicle upgrades and other optional charges and exclusive of excise taxes and surcharges, approximated $8,390,000, $5,183,000, and $5,815,000, for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. 12. SAVINGS AND RETIREMENT PLAN The Company has a defined contribution savings and retirement plan (the Plan) available to substantially all employees with more than one year of service. The Company contributes 10% of employee contributions with a maximum of $300 per employee per year. During the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993, the Company contributed $26,000 and $28,000, respectively, to the Plan. 13. SIGNIFICANT CONCENTRATION OF BUSINESS Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash equivalents and trade receivables. The Company places its temporary cash investments with high credit qualified financial institutions. Substantially all of the Company's business activity is within the State of Hawaii. 14. BUSINESS SEGMENTS The Company's activities comprise two segments: (1) the short-term rental of vehicles and (2) the purchase and sale of new and used vehicles.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES License Agreement The Company is the exclusive licensee of Dollar Systems for the State of Hawaii pursuant to the License dated April 3, 1974, which grants the Company the right to conduct its vehicle rental business under the name Dollar Rent A Car. Pursuant to the term of the License, which does not have a fixed term, Dollar Systems may terminate the License if the Company defaults in the performance of its obligations under the License and fails to cure its defaults, within a specified period. The License provides that it will terminate automatically if the Company attempts to assign its interest under the License without consent. In the event of termination, the License requires the Company to assign to Dollar Systems, upon their request, all of its airport contracts, concessions, leases and other arrangements pertaining to the use of real estate, and provides that Dollar Systems shall thereafter have the right to conduct vehicle rental operations at all such locations for its own benefit, or to designate another licensee. Such termination would also prohibit the Company from using all trade names, trademarks, signs, advertising, promotional materials and similar items of identification associated with Dollar Systems. Assistance Agreements In March 1994, the Company reached an agreement with Dollar Systems and certain of its affiliates. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Dollar Systems reduced the fees payable under the License for the period from January 1, 1994 to December 31, 1994, and thereafter the fees paid under the License will increase to the amount provided for in the License. In addition, Dollar Systems waived and discharged any obligation for certain fees owed under the License prior to January 1, 1994, and also increased certain incentive credits, rebates and fleet allowances under the Dollar Systems' 1994 Fleet Leasing Program ("Lease Program"). Furthermore, Dollar Systems procured a bond in an amount sufficient to satisfy the Company's self insurance requirements (see note 7), and also agreed to advance the Company a maximum of $1,400,000 (see note 4). In return for issuing the bond, the Company indemnified Dollar Systems and certain of its affiliates in connection with the issuance of the bond, assigned to Dollar Systems its receivable from the sale of the Asian Rights under the License, assigned to Dollar Systems its interest in the License, and granted to Dollar Systems a junior mortgage of its leasehold interest in its South Seas Jeep Eagle and Oahu Chrysler Jeep locations. In return for making the advance, the Company assigned to Dollar Systems all amounts owed to the Company under the Lease Program. The Company entered into a commitment, in principle, with Dollar Systems and certain of its affiliates on March 21, 1995. Pursuant to the terms of this commitment, Dollar Systems will reduce the fees payable under the License for the period from January 1, 1995 to December 31, 1995 and provide certain credits related to return freight on 1994 and 1995 model year vehicles. In addition, Dollar Systems will accept a convertible $3,000,000 note from the Company representing balances due to Dollar Systems at December 31, 1994 for fleet charges and franchise and miscellaneous system fees. In the event of a default by the Company of its obligations to Dollar Systems, the Company will issue a sufficient number of additional shares enabling Dollar Systems to exercise an option to convert the outstanding indebtedness due from the Company for up to 55% of the outstanding Common Stock and voting power of the Company. The note will be collateralized by mortgage liens on and security interests in all of the Company's assets. The terms of the note include: (i) interest at 2% over prime, with interest only payments monthly for the first two years; (ii) monthly principal and interest payments of $50,000 commencing May 1, 1997 for three years with the balance of the note due April 1, 2000; (iii) payments to Dollar Systems for net increases, if any, in the Company's cash account balances at December 31, 1995 and 1996 over December 31, 1994. Lease Commitments The Company operates its airport locations, corporate office, rental stations and base yards under operating leases expiring at various dates through 2021. In addition, the Company leases approximately 4,300 vehicles for its 1995 rental fleet under a leasing program with Dollar Systems specifying a maximum holding period of thirteen months. The Company also leases certain computer equipment used in both its vehicle rental and vehicle sales operations under capital leases expiring through 1998.

In addition to rent, the Company is obligated to pay Hawaii general excise tax, property taxes, insurance, and maintenance costs, as well as excess percentage rents based on airport revenues, at major facilities. Environmental Matters The Company has seven underground and one above-ground petroleum product storage tanks and one underground waste oil storage tank on its properties. The Company is subject to the federal and state laws governing the ownership and operation of these storage tanks. These laws require the Company to test periodically the integrity of these tanks and to mitigate and remediate the environmental effects of any releases of products from the storage tanks. In 1993, the Company was advised of a petroleum leak at the baseyard location for vehicle rental operations on the island of Oahu. A Phase I environmental assessment indicated that the soil and groundwater in certain portions of the baseyard had been impacted by the leakage of waste oil and petroleum products. The Company then initiated a Phase II environmental assessment to determine the extent of the petroleum and waste oil contamination. The Phase II assessment, together with the closure and removal of the waste oil storage tank was completed in 1994. During 1993, the Company recorded a reserve of $150,000 for the estimated future cost of the remedial efforts at the baseyard location. As of December 31, 1994, $49,000 remains in the reserve which the Company feels is adequate based on projections provided by the Company's environmental consultants. During November 1994, the Company received several citations from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) relating to one of its baseyard locations on the island of Hawaii. The most significant comment cited the Company for not performing certain acceptable leak and precision tightness procedures as a part of its annual testing. The Company's environmental consultants who performed the tank test clarified the necessary procedures with the EPA and are working with the Company to ensure that proper testing procedures are performed for all of the Company's tanks. No leaks or contamination were discovered during the testing by the environmental consultants. Other The Company from time to time enters into agreements pursuant to which it remains contingently liable for loans made to certain retail purchasers of vehicles. As of December 31, 1994, the balance of these loans for which the Company and its subsidiaries are contingently liable totaled $107,000. In general, the Company may not be called upon to make a payment under these agreements unless it obtains possession of the vehicle. The Company may then pursue its rights against the retail customer, who is the primary obligor under each vehicle loan. The Company is a party to various claims and legal actions which are incidental to the conduct of its business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's operations or financial condition. 16. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS In May 1995, after lengthy negotiations, the Company and Dollar Systems were unable to agree upon the final documentation with respect to the 1995 Assistance Agreement (see Note 15). Pending further negotiations, the Company withheld certain payments due to Dollar Systems under its License Agreement and Master Lease Agreement. Dollar Systems filed a legal action to compel the Company to execute the documentation proposed by Dollar Systems to embody its understanding of the 1995 Assistance Agreement. The Company responded by commencing its own legal action against Dollar Systems for damages and injunctive relief based on violations of the franchise agreement and Hawaii law. Dollar Systems then sent notices to the Company purporting to terminate the License Agreement and Master Lease Agreement. Subsequent discussions led to a Settlement Agreement encompassing among other things, the sale of the Company's vehicle rental operations. The parties have terminated all litigation without prejudice and may recommence proceedings should the transactions fail to close. Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement dated July 17, 1995, the parties agreed to stay the litigation and signed documents under which Dollar Systems will acquire substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of the Company's vehicle rental division. This transaction is subject to due diligence review and other conditions and to consents and approvals of certain persons, including the Company's shareholders and bondholders. The assets and liabilities of the Company's vehicle sales division, as well as certain other liabilities and obligations, will remain with the Company. The parties will also release various claims against each other. The transaction is scheduled to close by November 30, 1995 and Dollar and the Company have agreed that the Proposed Sale will be deemed to have closed on October 31, 1995. In the meantime, the Company continues to operate the vehicle rental division, including efforts to increase revenue, utilization and yield per rental day, and to control its operating costs. In connection with sale of substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the Company's vehicle rental division (the Proposed Sale), the Company plans to seek to exchange a pro rata share of cash consideration received in the Proposed Sale and certain shares of previously authorized Common Stock for certain of its outstanding convertible subordinated debentures. The number of previously authorized shares to be issued to the bondholders is subject to continuing negotiations between the Company and the bondholders. As a condition to closing of the Proposed Sale, the Company must have received the tender and/or consent of bondholders holding in the aggregate at least 95% of the face value of the debentures to the Proposed Sale or, alternatively, both (i) at least two-thirds (by face amount of debentures) of the holders voting in the consent solicitation for the Prepackaged Plan must have approved the Prepackaged Plan and (ii) at least a majority in number of the holders voting in the consent solicitation for the Prepackaged Plan must have approved the Prepackaged Plan. As part of this consent, the Company intends to amend the debenture indenture to provide for no further covenant obligations for the Company thereunder. While the transaction is pending, the Company is incurring and will continue to incur substantial transaction costs including legal, accounting and other professional fees. Although Dollar Systems has agreed to certain interim financial assistance it is unlikely that support from Dollar Systems will continue if the transaction does not close as planned. If the transaction does not close, and further assistance from Dollar Systems is not made available, there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred significant losses for the last several years and at December 31, 1994 has an accumulated deficit of $7.8 million. Additionally, the Company reported a net loss of $1.98 million (unaudited) for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and is in default on its principal bank debt covenants. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. On October 5, 1995 the Company was notified by NASDAQ that it was considering whether the Company's stock would continue to be listed on the exchange for failure to satisfy minimum trading value and capital requirements of NASDAQ. The Company was advised on October 12, 1995 that the NASDAQ had granted an exception to these requirements subject to certain conditions including that the Company receive the approval of its shareholders for the Proposed Sale by October 31, 1995 and that the Proposed Sale be consummated by November 15, 1995.

The parties will exchange appropriate written evidence of agreement on such remaining exhibits. In the event the exhibits have not been agreed upon by 5:00 p.m. C.D.T. on July 26, 1995, then Buyer or Seller shall be permitted to terminate and rescind this Agreement, each in their sole discretion, or mutually extend and/or re-extend the period of time for the exhibits to be finalized.

(b) Schedules. Seller and Buyer also understand and agree that, in order to expedite the execution of this Agreement, and in order to avoid the delay necessary to compile schedules of exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth below, on or before 5:00 p.m. C.D.T. on July 26, 1995, Seller will deliver to Buyer its schedules identified herein, and any item listed on such schedules shall be deemed to supplement or state an exception to the identified representations and warranties made by Seller as they are made on the date hereof, even if there is not an appropriate cross reference to a schedule appearing in Section 15 hereof. Upon receipt of such schedules, and through the due diligence period, during which time Buyer shall be afforded the opportunity to review and examine the materials and information referenced on such schedules, Buyer may terminate this Agreement, without any liability to Seller, if anything set forth on such schedules is unacceptable to Buyer in its sole discretion. Such schedules shall be updated by Seller during the period from their delivery to the Closing not later than the tenth (10th) day of each month with respect to matters which should properly have been added to such schedules as to events, conditions, circumstances or transactions occurring or discovered during the most recently completed calendar month.

Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, all references to the representations and warranties of Seller made herein shall be deemed to relate only to such representations and warranties as modified or supplemented, from time to time, by the schedules hereto, and irrespective of whether or not the text of Section 15 currently cross references a schedule.

(a) Determination. In addition to Buyer's execution and delivery of the Assumption Agreement at Closing and acceptance of the Liabilities indicated thereby, the cash purchase price to be paid by Buyer for the Assets ("Cash Amount"), which will be disbursed to the trustee for the Debentures, shall be One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000), less that amount of the Net Worth that is more negative than negative Six Hundred Thousand Dollars (- $600,000) immediately before and as of the date of Closing, or alternatively, plus that amount of the Net Worth that is more positive than negative Six Hundred Thousand Dollars (-$600,000) immediately before and as of the date of Closing. (b) Net Worth. In determining the Net Worth at the time of Closing: (1) The valuation of Assets and Liabilities of the Division in both the Unaudited Closing Balance Sheet and the Final Closing Balance Sheet shall be presented in accordance with GAAP Consistently Applied as modified or clarified by the Agreed Practices. There shall be no changes from the Agreed Practices unless specifically agreed otherwise in writing by Seller and Buyer. (2) All determinations of Net Worth will be based on GAAP Consistently Applied as modified or clarified by the Agreed Practices, i.e., historical cost, and shall exclude goodwill. (3) The Liabilities for purposes of determining Net Worth shall be inclusive of indebtedness of Seller to Buyer; subject, however, to exclusion from such debt any amounts which are then the subject of a good faith dispute being resolved in accordance with the procedures outlined in Section 19(a) and (b) hereof. (4) Neither Excluded Assets nor Retained Liabilities shall for any purpose under this Agreement be considered in the computation of Net Worth. (c) Limits. The Cash Amount payable pursuant hereto is subject to the following limits: (1) The operation of Section 4(a) hereof shall not require under any circumstance that Buyer pay a Cash Amount (or Estimated Cash Amount at Closing) exceeding the sum of Two Million One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,100,000). (2) The operation of Section 4(a) hereof shall not require that Buyer or Seller complete the purchase and sale contemplated hereby in the event the Unaudited Net Worth of the Division is more negative than negative Two Million One Hundred Thousand Dollars (-$2,100,000) at the time of Closing. In such event, either Seller or Buyer may terminate this Agreement without liability to the other. If Buyer elects to close, however, under circumstances where the Unaudited Net Worth is more negative than negative Two Million One Hundred Thousand Dollars (-$2,100,000), Seller shall not be required to pay Buyer the Elective Net Worth Amount. 5. ADJUSTMENTS TO ESTIMATED CASH AMOUNT. The Cash Amount shall be determined and adjusted from the Estimated Cash Amount as follows: (a) Upward Adjustment. The Cash Amount shall be adjusted upward, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, to the extent that the Final Net Worth exceeds or is more positive than the amount of Unaudited Net Worth. (b) Downward Adjustment. The Cash Amount shall be adjusted downward, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, to the extent the Final Net Worth is less than or more negative than the Unaudited Net Worth. (c) Final Closing Balance Sheet. Buyer shall, at Buyer's sole cost and expense, prepare and deliver to Seller within sixty (60) days of the date of Closing the Final Closing Balance Sheet which shall include, in addition to the other information set forth therein, the Final Net Worth, and reflect resolution of any disputes subject to Sections 19(a) and (b) hereof (but not Section 20(f)(3), if applicable). The Final Closing Balance Sheet, and the Assets and Liabilities reflected thereon, shall be prepared and determined in accordance with GAAP Consistently Applied as modified or clarified by the Agreed Practices, and shall be accompanied by an independent auditor's report thereon of Buyer's independent auditors, D&T, to the effect that the Final Closing Balance Sheet, and the Assets and Liabilities reflected thereon, were prepared and determined in accordance with GAAP Consistently Applied as modified or clarified by the Agreed Practices. The Final Closing Balance Sheet shall be accompanied by a supplementary schedule setting forth the calculation of the adjustment to the Cash Amount from the Estimated Cash Amount contemplated by Section 5(a) or (b), as the case may be. Buyer and D&T shall make available to Seller upon Seller's request and its independent auditor, PW, all work papers, books and records used in the preparation and audit of the Final Closing Balance Sheet, and shall provide copies of the same to Seller upon Seller's request. (d) Review Period. Seller shall have fifteen (15) business days after its receipt of (i) the Final Closing Balance Sheet and related supplementary schedules, and (ii) if requested by Seller, all work papers, books and records used in the preparation and audit of the Final Closing Balance Sheet, to review them ("Review Period"). On or prior to the expiration of the Review Period, Seller shall notify Buyer in writing whether it agrees or disagrees with Buyer's calculation of any adjustment to the Cash Amount or where no Estimated Cash Amount was paid the determination of Final Net Worth more negative than the Unaudited Net Worth and, if it disagrees (the "Disagreement Notice"), the basis of its disagreement, including its calculation of any adjustment to the Cash Amount or Final Net Worth, respectively. If Buyer does not receive the Disagreement Notice on or prior to the expiration of the Review Period, Seller shall be deemed to have approved the Final Closing Balance Sheet and Buyer's calculation of any adjustment to the Cash Amount applicable thereto and the Final Net Worth. (e) Disagreement Procedure. If Buyer receives the Disagreement Notice, Seller and Buyer shall, in good faith, attempt to resolve the disagreement within fifteen (15) business days after Buyer's receipt of the Disagreement Notice. If they cannot resolve the disagreement within such time period, they promptly shall refer such disagreement for resolution to AA, or if AA is unable to serve or declines to act, or if at the time of such referral AA is not independent of each of Buyer and Seller, such other firm of independent accountants of recognized national standing as mutually selected by Buyer and Seller (AA or such other firm being referred to herein as the "Deciding Accountant"). The determination of the Deciding Accountant as to the calculation and amount of any adjustment to the Cash Amount and the Final Net Worth shall be rendered within thirty (30) days after such disagreement is referred to the Deciding Accountant, and shall be binding upon the parties hereto. (f) Cooperation with Deciding Accountant. Each of Buyer and the Seller shall furnish to the Deciding Accountant, at its own cost and expense, such documents and information as the Deciding Accountant may request, and each party may also furnish to the Deciding Accountant such other information and documents as it deems relevant, in all cases with copies (where it would not be unreasonably costly or burdensome to provide copies) or notification (with reasonable rights of access) being given by the other party. The fees and expenses payable to the Deciding Accountant shall be borne one-half by Seller and one-half by Buyer. (g) Resolution. The Final Closing Balance Sheet as agreed to by the parties or as determined by the Deciding Accountant, and the Final Net Worth reflected thereon, shall be considered the "Final Closing Balance Sheet" and the "Final Net Worth," respectively, for all purposes of this Agreement. The latter of the date (i) on which the parties agreed upon the Final Closing Balance Sheet and the calculation of any adjustment to the Cash Amount and the Final Net Worth, or (ii) the date on which the Deciding Accountant renders its decision with respect thereto, or (iii) resolution of all good faith disputes in accordance with Sections 19(a) and (b) hereof (but not Section 20(f)(3) hereof), shall be called the "Final Settlement Date." (h) Final Payment. Within five (5) business days after the Final Settlement Date, (i) if the Cash Amount exceeds the Estimated Cash Amount paid at Closing, Buyer shall pay to the trustee for the Debentures the amount of such excess by wire transfer to an account identified in writing by Seller, and (ii) if the Estimated Cash Amount paid at Closing exceeds the Cash Amount, or if, in a circumstance where no Estimated Cash Amount was paid, the Final Net Worth is more negative than the Unaudited Net Worth, Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount of the excess of the Estimated Cash Amount over the Cash Amount, or the amount of Final Net Worth which is more negative than the amount of Unaudited Net Worth, respectively, by wire transfer to an account of Buyer identified in writing by Buyer to the extent not satisfied by disbursement of the Holdback Amount, if an Estimated Cash Amount was paid, pursuant to the Holdback Agreement. (i) Final Allocations. Any adjustments to the Cash Amount or as a result of determination of the Final Net Worth required by application of this Section 5 shall be allocated among the Assets (or to the residual) in the same manner or proportion as the allocation required by Section 13(e) hereof. 6. HOLDBACK REQUIREMENTS. In order to better assure that Buyer will pay no more than the Cash Amount if it is determined to be less than the Estimated Cash Amount paid at Closing, Seller and Buyer agree that the greater of (i) ten percent (10%) of the Estimated Cash Amount or (ii) the portion of the Estimated Cash Amount which exceeds One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) (the greater of such amounts being the "Holdback Amount"), which is otherwise to be paid to the trustee for the Debentures at Closing, will instead be delivered in escrow pursuant to the terms of the Holdback Agreement. The terms of the Holdback Agreement shall provide, among other things, that if the Estimated Cash Amount paid at Closing exceeds the Cash Amount, the escrow agent pursuant thereto shall pay to Buyer at the time required by Section 5 the lesser of the amount of such excess or the Holdback Amount. Any sums still held under the Holdback Agreement after disbursement of the Holdback Amount to Buyer will be paid over to the trustee for the Debentures. 7. SOUTH SEAS STOCK PLEDGE. (a) Pledge. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, Seller shall execute and deliver the Stock Pledge Agreement, pledging as a first and preferred lien and without any junior liens, one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding capital stock of South Seas to secure the following: (1) The Master Lease payments (subject to customary offsets but none accruing on or before April 30, 1995 except as otherwise specifically provided in Section 19(a) hereof) accruing or becoming due and payable from and after May 1, 1995 until the earlier of Closing or termination of this Agreement; (2) The payment of all other obligations of Seller to Buyer accruing or becoming due and payable from and after May 1, 1995 until the earlier of Closing or termination of this Agreement and expressly including amounts that are hereafter disputed and are subject to the procedure outlined in Sections 19(a) and (b) hereof, during the pendency of the dispute and until resolution (but not claims submitted for ADR as described in Section 20(f)(3) hereof); (3) Buyer's money damages and incidental, out of pocket losses as awarded by the final, non-appealable order of a court for failure or refusal to close after satisfaction (or waiver by the party entitled to the satisfaction) of all conditions precedent to the obligation of both parties to the Closing; (4) The amount of the downward adjustment from the Estimated Cash Amount to the Cash Amount necessitated upon receipt of the Final Closing Balance Sheet, to the extent not satisfied by the Holdback Amount; (5) In a circumstance where no Estimated Cash Amount was paid, the amount by which the Final Net Worth is more negative than the Unaudited Net Worth amount ; (6) If Closing occurs, any amounts or Assets required to be returned by Buyer pursuant to the order of a court under any preference or fraudulent transfer law; provided, however, that if as of that date which is ninety-one (91) days after Closing (i) Seller has not filed a voluntary petition for relief under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, as amended, (ii) an involuntary petition has not been filed against Seller under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, as amended, or (iii) no such action or assertion in such bankruptcy case has been filed or made, then the subject pledge and lien shall lapse insofar as its secures the obligation described in this Section 7(a)(6). If any such filing is made, or action or assertion in such bankruptcy case is made on or before such ninety-first (91st) day, then this lien shall continue through completion of any such case under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, as amended, and until resolution by the final, non-appealable order of a court. (b) Secondary Collateral. Insofar and only insofar as the South Seas stock secures adjustments necessitated upon receipt of the Final Closing Balance Sheet, and in the event the Estimated Cash Amount paid at Closing exceeds the Cash Amount, Buyer shall first receive the Holdback Amount from the escrow agent under the Holdback Agreement, and then any amount remaining unsatisfied thereafter shall be secured by the South Seas stock. (c) Agent. Pursuant to the Agency Agreement executed on the date hereof, the South Seas stock is held by Liberty Bank and Trust Company of Tulsa, N.A., to perfect Buyer's lien. 8. DUE DILIGENCE. From and after the date hereof and prior to the Closing, Seller agrees to permit Buyer and its representatives full access to the Assets, Liabilities and the Division's operations, and its business and financial records, contracts and prospects files and any and all other documentation to permit it to complete its due diligence procedures and review. In addition, the parties agree that Buyer shall complete due diligence procedures and review of Preliminary Financial Information and Division operations within forty-five (45) days after initial delivery of complete and conforming schedules (as well as exhibits which are required to be updated) by Seller pursuant to Section 2(b) of this Agreement. At Seller's request, Buyer shall confirm in writing within two (2) days after Seller's initial submission of its schedules (as well as initial exhibits which are required to be updated), whether or not the Buyer believes that Seller's submissions as of such time have been sufficiently "complete and conforming" to commence the 45-day period. In the event in response to initial deliveries, Buyer within two (2) days requests supplementation or clarification, then upon Seller's response Seller may again request such confirmation. Buyer has the right at any time during such 45-day period to terminate this Agreement for any reason or no reason at all, as well as other rights of termination at other times, as more particularly provided in Section 21(d) hereof. The Agreed Practices will be finalized by the parties before completion of the 45-day period described herein. Upon entering into this Agreement, three Agreed Practices have been identified and placed on Exhibit B. These do not constitute all of the Agreed Practices as the same are expressly permitted to be developed by the parties during the 45-day period described herein. Seller has specifically requested Buyer accept such exhibit without Buyer doing field work or other verifications necessary to substantively review the content of Exhibit B as of the date of this Agreement. However, if the transaction proceeds beyond the 45-day due diligence period, the three Agreed Practices as identified on today's date will be used in developing the Unaudited Closing Balance Sheet and Final Closing Balance Sheet. Due to Buyer not having yet tested or reviewed the application of such Agreed Practices as of the date of execution hereof, however, it is expressly understood that within the 45-day period Buyer may terminate this Agreement without any liability to Seller for any reason, and even if such reason is solely Buyer's dissatisfaction with the application of any one or more of the Agreed Practices identified on Exhibit B on the date hereof. 9.

COVENANTS OF BUYER.

OTHER AGREEMENTS. (a) Disputed Charges. In light of resolution of all disputes hereafter described as to the amount of payments, charges and debt owing from Seller to Buyer, or credits owing from Buyer to Seller, as of and as to charges, invoices or credits relating to transactions occurring on or before April 30, 1995, in accordance with the compromise set forth in Section 19(e) below, the parties agree there are no outstanding disputes or disagreements which Seller and Buyer have with respect to charges, invoices or credits which have been respectively received by the parties and the net amount of which were unpaid as of April 30, 1995, but subject to the conditions expressed in Section 19(e) below. With respect to any other charges, invoices or credits which Buyer and Seller hereafter dispute in good faith (which may include disputes relating to charges, invoices or credits on 1994 model year vehicles that have not gone through auction), the following procedures will apply: Buyer will submit its invoices to Seller with sufficient supporting documentation explaining the amount owed. Seller will have ten (10) days from receipt to review and submit to Buyer the amount, if any, that it disputes together with sufficient supporting documentation for its position. Buyer will have ten (10) days to respond from receipt of Seller's position, again with supporting documentation. If the parties cannot reach agreement within five (5) days after Buyer's response, the disputed amount will be immediately submitted for ADR and, if time permits, resolved prior to Closing. Once an amount is determined due and owing through ADR, it shall be immediately paid. If amounts submitted for ADR remain unresolved as of Closing, the Closing shall not be delayed, but the amount resolved after Closing shall be included in the post-closing adjustments to the Final Closing Balance Sheet as specified in Section 5 hereof. (b) ADR Procedures. Any dispute submitted for ADR will be subject to binding resolution before a mutually agreeable private adjudicator, with a determination to be made within fifteen (15) business days after the submission for disputes under Section 19(a) hereof. The specific procedures applicable in ADR for both Section 19(a) and Section 20(f)(3) claims are set forth on Exhibit U hereto. (c) Fleet Procedures. The following criteria shall apply concerning the fleet issues identified below for the 1994 and 1995 model years: (1) All eligible 1995 Model Year (MY) vehicles except the vehicles listed below are eligible for an In Service Retention Bonus ("ISRB") of $2.50 per day when the vehicle has been in service for 243 days (94MY:240 days, approximately eight months) retroactive to the 183rd day (94MY:180th day) of service subject to the conditions listed below. The 1995 MY vehicles not eligible for ISRB are: A-Bodies leased under the short term program and Neons, A-Bodies and 1995 LWB Minivans leased under the Special Long Term Program. This bonus will be earned if the date a vehicle is returned to auction (the Auction Return Date) is a minimum of 243 days (94MY:240 days) from the Lease Start Date and the vehicle is not rejected from the Buyer Program. The $2.50 per day is payable for the number of days in service less 183 days (94MY:180 days, representing approximately six months) less 15 days for vehicles returned in Hawaii to a mainland auction. For vehicles exceeding the Maximum Lease Term of 13.5 months up to 14.5 months (15 months less 15 days), Buyer will be able to pass through as a credit to Seller up to a maximum ISRB of $637.50 (450-180-15 days times $2.50) per vehicle. For vehicles exceeding 14.5 months in service Buyer agrees to pass through as a credit to Seller all ISRB received from Chrysler, although there is no assurance that this ISRB will be received. If a vehicle is rejected from the program for any reason or is not accepted for return for any reason, the ISRB will not be earned. If a vehicle is rejected after the ISRB has been paid, the ISRB Fleet Credit will be charged back to Seller's account. (2) Regarding transportation costs (water and surface) on 1994 model year vehicles, Buyer pays $683.00 per vehicle, and on 1995 model vehicles, Buyer pays as set forth in the Vehicle Return Procedures. (3) The Lease Start Date is the date of arrival in Hawaii (as indicated by date Seller signs bill of lading receipt), plus three (3) days for 1995 models, and plus five (5) days for 1994 models; (4) The Lease End Date is the Auction Return Date less 15 days for 1994 vehicles and less either 15 to 20 days for 1995 vehicles as set forth in the Vehicle Return Procedures. (5) With respect to cars not yet sold at auction, debits will not be booked by Buyer until the accompanying credit, if any, has been issued. Buyer will maintain separate records to document the status of these "off A/R" (from Buyer's viewpoint) transactions which will not count toward the Debt Ceiling Covenant until the respective credit has been applied and no further credits are anticipated. (6) Sections 19(c)(1) through (5) above are not intended to amend, except as otherwise specifically provided above, any other applicable provision in Buyer's 1994 or 1995 Fleet Lease Program. (7) Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Section 19(c) shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the respective 1994 or 1995 Fleet Lease Program sponsored by Buyer. (8) Seller acknowledges that the Vehicle Return Procedures have not previously been implemented by Buyer. As a consequence, and due to Buyer's unfamiliarity with Hawaii shipping and transportation issues, Seller agrees to consider in good faith reasonable modifications to the Vehicle Return Procedures which do not result in Seller being responsible for shipping costs to the mainland, nor materially diminish or change the respective rights and obligations of the parties as reflected thereon, nor extend the Lease End Date. (d) Employees. (1) Buyer's Negotiation with Seller's Emplopyees. On and after the date hereof to the time of Closing, Seller agrees to permit Buyer to interview the employees of Seller listed Exhibit V hereto and to agree to permit Buyer to hire any one or more of such employees on terms that are mutually acceptable between Buyer and each such employee. Buyer and Seller agree that it is not a condition of Closing that Buyer successfully negotiate the employment of any such employee. In the event Buyer elects not to retain the services of any employee of Seller, Seller shall specifically retain as a Retained Liability, and Buyer does not assume, any liability for accrued salary, vacation leave, sick leave, unpaid fringes, severance, Hawaii Dislocated Workers Act allowance or any other liability whatsoever due in respect of any such employee. (i) Buyer shall assume the remaining term of Seller's employment commitment to Sirio Maggiacomo which ends December 31, 1997, which term shall be honored by Buyer unless grounds exist for termination with cause in which event Buyer will be excused from further obligation; provided, however, Buyer's total obligation to accept such commitment shall not exceed $140,000 per year as to base salary and Buyer's standard benefits package offered to its employees. Upon the Closing, Seller and Mr. Maggiacomo shall enter into an agreement terminating his existing Employment Agreement with Seller entered into effective January 1, 1995, and affirming he has no claim against Buyer pursuant thereto or otherwise except to the extent specifically provided herein. (ii) With respect to Seller's employment commitment of $45,500 per year ending June 19, 1997 to Teddy Fabella (plus $200/month car allowance in lieu of company car), Seller agrees that Buyer will not be obligated to assume such commitment until it has had the opportunity to interview Mr. Fabella and satisfy itself as to his qualifications, in Buyer's sole discretion. Upon the Closing and if Buyer has elected to retain his services, Seller and Mr. Fabella shall enter into an agreement terminating his existing employment commitment with Seller entered into effective May 29, 1995, and affirming he has no claim against Buyer pursuant thereto or otherwise except for the specific monetary amounts described above. If any offer of employment by Buyer is extended to Teddy Fabella, it will be understood that the same will be subject to termination for cause and without further liability to Buyer in advance of June 19, 1997. (e) Compromise of Existing Disputes. As of April 30, 1995, Buyer understands that Seller had disputed approximately Eight Hundred Fifty-Eight Thousand Dollars ($858,000) of miscellaneous charges and invoices from Buyer to Seller. As consideration for Buyer's entering into, performing and closing this Agreement, Seller and Buyer agree to resolve and compromise in favor of Seller a portion of such claims as identified on Exhibit W hereto, and to resolve and compromise in favor of Buyer a portion of such remaining claims by agreeing that the final amount due and owing in respect of such controversies equals Two Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($225,000), irrespective of whether or not the Exhibit W sums plus Two Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($225,000) equals Eight Hundred Fifty-Eight Thousand Dollars ($858,000). The compromise amount of Two Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($225,000) will immediately and through the Closing be reflected as a Liability on the Division balance sheet. As additional consideration to Buyer for making such compromise, Seller waives and relinquishes any right to claim any offset or other amount due and owing, if any, in respect of reconciliation of actual transportation charges compared to permitted allowances or other freight credits for return of all vehicles, or Product Promotion Allowance, both with respect to Buyer's 1994 Model Year Fleet Lease Program. If, for any reason, this Agreement is terminated before Closing, then all of the agreements made by the parties in this Section 19(e) will likewise be deemed rescinded, with each of Seller and Buyer permitted to pursue and prosecute claims in respect of amounts they consider owing or to become owing as described in this Section 19(e) or otherwise. (f) Notice of Modification. To the extent required by applicable law, upon execution hereof, Buyer hereby delivers to Seller a Notice of Modification of Existing Franchise in the form of Exhibit X hereto, pertaining generally to the agreements described in Section 19(g) below. In the event Seller elects to rescind such amendments or modifications as set forth in accordance with the terms of Exhibit X, then this Agreement shall be deemed immediately terminated without further notice. (g) Waiver of System Fees. Buyer shall permanently waive and forgive Seller's obligation to pay system fees under the License Agreement (but not its reporting requirements) to Buyer computed at a two percent (2%) level (but no other fees), accruing from June 1, 1995 only until the earlier to occur of (i) termination of this Agreement, (ii) Closing, or (iii) a cumulative waiver of Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000) in amount of system fees has been allowed in accordance herewith. From the point in time that the waiver described herein is to expire until Closing or termination hereof, system fees shall thereafter accrue and be payable as otherwise required in accordance with the terms of the License Agreement at a two percent (2%) level. This waiver is absolute until it ceases in accordance with the terms hereof. (h) Reserves. All entries as to Seller's reserves in Financial Statements including, without limitation, for accounts receivable, liability insurance and damaged vehicle turnbacks and reconditioning, will be updated and determined in accordance with GAAP Consistently Applied as modified and clarified by the Agreed Practices as of the date of each respective Financial Statement. Part of such updating is Seller's responsibility to provide information as current as possible as of the date of the Financial Statements involved which, in the case of each of the Unaudited Closing Balance Sheet and Final Closing Balance Sheet, shall obligate Seller to perform all of the procedures and make all adjustments it would customarily make with respect to the Unaudited Closing Balance Sheet and the Final Closing Balance Sheet as if such were normal year-end audited statements, except as otherwise set forth in Agreed Practices. Accordingly, and subject to the Agreed Practices, irrespective of whether or not a given procedure, evaluation, updating, review or other matter might be undertaken with respect to reserves for preparation of a balance sheet by Seller in its ordinary course as of October 31, 1995, or the date of Closing, such shall nevertheless be performed, undertaken and prepared for purposes of developing the Unaudited Closing Balance Sheet and Final Closing Balance Sheet. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary expressed herein, in preparing the Unaudited Closing Balance Sheet, Seller will not be required (i) to make a physical inventory of vehicles, (ii) perform or cause to be performed an actuarial study with respect to self insurance reserves, or (iii) make independent confirmation of assets or liabilities. (i) Standstill Agreement. Upon execution hereof, Seller and Buyer have entered into the Standstill Agreement in the form of Exhibit Y hereto, and agree to perform and observe the conditions stated therein. 20. INDEMNIFICATION. (a) Loss. For purposes of this Agreement, "Loss" shall mean any liability, loss, cost, claim, damage, injury, expense or payment, including without limitation the related actual fees and expenses of attorneys, consultants and other experts. (b) By the Seller.

(c) By the Buyer. The Buyer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Seller harmless from, against and in respect of any Loss incurred or suffered by the Seller: (1) with respect to any Liability except to the extent that such Loss arose from or was the result of any situation or set of facts in existence on the Closing, the existence of which would cause there to be a breach of a warranty, representation, covenant or agreement by the Seller under this Agreement or the Seller Delivered Agreements; (2) With respect to Buyer's operation of the Division after Closing, except for the Retained Liabilities and except to the extent that any such Loss arose from or was the result of any situation or set of facts in existence on the Closing, the existence of which would cause there to be a breach of a warranty, representation, covenant or agreement by the Seller under this Agreement or the Seller Delivered Agreements; and (3) without limiting or being in any manner limited by the foregoing, as a result of a misrepresentation, breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of the Buyer under this Agreement or the Buyer Delivered Documents. (d) General. Any right of indemnity of any party pursuant to this Agreement shall be in addition to and shall not operate as a limitation on any other right to indemnity of such party pursuant to this Agreement, any document or instrument executed in connection with the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby, or otherwise under applicable law. (e) Limitations. The foregoing indemnification obligations are subject to the following: (1) Time Limitations. The obligation of indemnity shall be extinguished unless the party claiming the right to be indemnified notifies the indemnitor of facts which it thinks are the basis for indemnification hereunder on or before the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no time deadline shall apply to any willful or intentional breach of or failure to comply with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement. (2) Deductible. Neither the Seller nor the Buyer shall have any liability whatsoever under this Section 20 unless and until, and only to the extent that, the total Losses for which the Seller on the one hand, or the Buyer, on the other hand, would otherwise be liable, exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) in the aggregate; provided, however, that the minimum Loss specified herein shall not apply to any willful or intentional breach of or failure to comply with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement or the Seller Delivered Agreements or Buyer Delivered Agreements, respectively, nor as to any Loss sustained by Buyer relating to any Retained Liabilities. (3) Application of Limitations. All limitations described in this Section 20 shall apply not only to any right of contractual indemnity established hereunder, but also for breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement by either party hereto, or other remedy available under applicable law. (f) Claims by Parties Hereto. All claims for indemnification under this Agreement shall be resolved in accordance with the following procedures: (1) Notice of Facts Forming Basis for Claim. Notice must be given of facts which are the basis of an indemnification claim under this Section 20 within the time periods required by Section 20(e)(1). (2) Third Party Claims; Right to Contest. With respect to any Loss based upon an asserted liability or obligation to a person or entity not a party to this Agreement for which either the Seller or the Buyer claims the right to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 20, the Buyer or the Seller, as the case may be, shall give prompt (within the time required for the filing of any responsive pleading in the case of litigation) written notice to the other party (the "Notice of Third Party Claim") even though Section 20(f)(1) above might permit a later notice. In no event shall the provisions of this Section 20(f) reduce or lessen the obligations of the Seller or the Buyer under this Section 20(f)(2), if the party furnishing the Notice of Third Party Claim shall respond to a third party claim if such action is reasonably required to minimize damages or avoid a forfeiture or penalty or because of a requirement imposed by law. The party furnishing the Notice of Third Party Claim may not settle such claims or actions without the consent of the other party to this Agreement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. (3) Notice of Fixed or Determined Loss. When a Loss is paid or is otherwise fixed or determined, then the Buyer or the Seller claiming indemnification under this Agreement shall give the other notice of such Loss, in reasonable detail and specifying the amount of such Loss, and the sections of this Agreement upon which the claim for indemnification for such Loss is based. If the recipient of the notice desires to dispute such claim, it shall, within thirty (30) days after notice of the claim of Loss against pursuant to this Section 20(f)(3) is deemed received, give counternotice, setting forth the basis for disputing such claim, to the Buyer or the Seller, as the case may be. If no such counternotice is given within such thirty (30) day period, then such Loss shall be promptly satisfied. If a counternotice is given, the parties shall pursue ADR in accordance with Section 19(b) hereof. (g) Survival. The representations and warranties, as well as covenants and agreements performable after Closing, made by the parties in this Agreement or in any certificate, exhibit, schedule or other document executed and delivered by a party pursuant to, or in connection with, this Agreement, shall expressly survive the Closing. No investigation made by the Buyer or the Seller nor any disclosure made after the date of this Agreement shall affect the enforceability of, or the remedies available under this Agreement with respect to the breaches of, such representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and undertakings or their survival. 21. TERMINATION. (a) Termination Rights. The obligations of Seller and Buyer under this Agreement can be terminated and the transactions contemplated by it abandoned upon the following conditions, or when authorized under applicable law, with notice of termination to be furnished in writing: (1) By Buyer as provided in Section 21(d) below; (2) Pursuant to the mutual written agreement of Seller and Buyer; (3) By Buyer, if any of the conditions to its obligation to consummate the Closing are not satisfied or waived by Buyer as of the Closing; (4) By Seller, if any of the conditions to its obligation to consummate the Closing are not satisfied or waived by Seller by the Closing; (5) By Seller or Buyer at any time on or before the end of Buyer's 45-day due diligence period described in Section 8, for failure to accept or otherwise reach agreement upon an Agreed Practice proposed by the other party including, without limitation, any Agreed Practice pertaining to the manner in which Seller's reserves in the Financial Statements are to be computed; (6) By Seller or Buyer as provided in Section 4(c)(2) above; and (7) The failure of the Closing to have occurred for whatever reason by November 30, 1995 (unless extended by mutual written agreement of the parties), in which event the Agreement shall automatically terminate. (b) Assistance Claim. In the event of termination of this Agreement, the passage of time shall not preclude Buyer in its discretion from asserting that the assistance referenced in the March 21, 1995 agreement between the parties has failed, with Buyer being entitled to claim the increased amounts due if such assistance is determined to have failed. (c) Contract Termination Claims. Upon termination of this Agreement, the respective rights and liabilities of Buyer and Seller with respect to the Master Lease and License Agreement shall be governed by the terms of such agreements and the Standstill Agreement. (d) Effect of Termination. It is agreed by Seller that Buyer has the unqualified right to terminate this Agreement and rescind this transaction, in addition to any other time expressly provided herein or by applicable law, in the following circumstances or at the times indicated below: (i) upon completion of or during its due diligence procedures and review; (ii) upon failure to have agreed upon the exhibits by the time required herein; (iii) upon non-acceptance of the content of Seller's schedules (or exhibits required to be updated) hereto during or by conclusion of the due diligence period, or upon updating of such schedules (or exhibits required to be updated) as required hereby periodically (with Buyer to accept or reject same within five (5) days of receipt by Buyer's hereafter designated representative, with silence being deemed acceptance) and at the Closing; (iv) upon failure of a condition to the obligation of Buyer to close hereunder, or breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement by Seller pursuant hereto; or (v) upon exercise by Seller of a right to rescind the amendment to its License Agreement as described on Exhibit X hereto (as to all the foregoing, whether expressly enumerated, or described before the colon appearing in the fifth (5th) line of this Section 21(d), the "Permitted Termination Events"); this Agreement may be terminated and rescinded upon Buyer's written notice with the parties restored to their respective positions existing before entering into this Agreement; provided, (x) Buyer shall be entitled to retain all payments made by Seller pursuant to existing agreements, and (y) the pledge of the South Seas stock shall remain in place to the extent at such time amounts that are secured by the pledge pursuant to Section 7(a)(1), 7(a)(2), or 7(a)(3) are accrued or due and payable by Seller to Buyer (or are subject to good faith disputes in accordance with Section 19(a) and (b) hereof). As a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement, and particularly considering the similar nature of such claims which have heretofore been raised in the litigation which is the subject of the Standstill Agreement and the fact that the exhibits and schedules are to be developed and modified from time to time after the date hereof, Seller hereby irrevocably and unqualifiedly waives any and all right to assert any challenge, claim or objection to Buyer's exercise of its right to terminate this Agreement for any reason at, during or upon the Permitted Termination Events, whether or not with justification, and including, without limitation, any assertion by Seller that Buyer's termination constitutes breach of any statutory or implied covenant of good faith, fair dealing or other duty, or as constituting any type of interference with prospective business advantage, contractual or business relationship, discrimination, economic duress or any other similar or dissimilar tort, breach of contract or any other theory of recovery whatsoever. 22. REMEDIES. (a) In addition to the indemnity rights of Buyer and Seller under Section 20 of this Agreement and remedies available under applicable law, Buyer and Seller shall each have the following rights and remedies: (1) Buyer may foreclose its security interest in the South Seas stock to the extent permitted by this Agreement, the Stock Pledge Agreement or the Agency Agreement. (2) Either party may recover money damages for breach of representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and indemnities after the Closing or for failure or refusal to close after satisfaction (or waiver by the party entitled to the satisfaction) of all conditions precedent to the obligation of both parties to the Closing. (3) For breach of representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and indemnities before Closing, the non-defaulting party will be entitled to rescission with the parties each being restored to their respective status before the Agreement, subject to Section 21, with the ability to proceed with the litigation pending on the date of this Agreement or any other remedy; provided, however, that the passage of time shall not preclude Buyer in its discretion from asserting upon exercise of a rescissionary remedy that the assistance referenced in the March 21, 1995 agreement between the parties has failed, with it being entitled to claim the increased amounts due it from Seller if such assistance is determined to have failed. (4) For failure or refusal to close after fulfillment by both parties of all their respective conditions to Closing, the enforcing party may seek specific performance of this Agreement. A party may also seek specific performance for breach of a covenant or agreement hereunder. The parties irrevocably agree in the circumstances where specific performance is authorized hereunder that there is no adequate remedy available at law. (5) Upon breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement by Seller under this Agreement, Buyer may terminate this Agreement whereupon the respective rights and liabilities of the parties with respect to the Master Lease and License Agreement shall be subject to the terms of such agreements and the Standstill Agreement. (6) For violation of the PISC Noncompetition Agreement or Robin Noncompetition Agreement, Buyer shall be entitled to injunctive relief. (b) None of the foregoing rights or remedies shall be exclusive or in duplication of any other right or remedy under this Agreement, those available under applicable law, or the indemnity rights and remedies of Buyer and Seller under Section 20. (c) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to, nor shall applicable law be deemed for purposes of this Agreement to allow, a party to sue for money damages for breach of a representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or indemnity before the Closing; provided, however, this limitation will not preclude Buyer from maintaining any action against Seller for a violation by Seller hereafter of its obligations under the Master Lease, License Agreement or any other contract between such parties except as limited by the Standstill Agreement. (d) If, for any reason, the Closing fails to occur, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the parties from asserting their respective positions in litigation pending prior to the execution hereof, all in accordance with the Standstill Agreement and all amendments thereto. (e) In any action brought to enforce any provision hereof or any Basic Document, the prevailing party shall be entitled to its reasonable attorney's fees in addition to the relief it is seeking. 23. GENERAL PROVISIONS. (a) Further Assurances. At any time and from time to time after the Closing, at the request of Buyer and without payment of any further consideration, Seller agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver all such further assignments, conveyances and transfer documents, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Seller, and other assurances as reasonably may be requested by Buyer for the purpose of better assigning, conveying and transferring to Buyer, or reducing to Buyer's possession, any or all of the Assets or to enable Buyer to exercise and enjoy the rights and benefits with respect thereto. At any time and from time to time after the Closing, at the request of Seller and without payment of any further consideration, Buyer agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver all such further assumptions and documents, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Buyer, and other assurances as reasonably may be requested by Seller for the purpose of better evidencing the assumption by Buyer of the Liabilities.

(c) Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with other Basic Documents and the exhibits and schedules attached hereto, and as the exhibits and schedules may be amended or supplemented from time to time, constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matters hereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, and may not be altered or amended except in writing signed by the parties hereto. No provision hereof is intended to confer upon any person or entity other than the parties hereto any right, benefit or privilege of the parties described hereunder. (d) Time of Essence; Computation of Time. In all matters under this Agreement, time is of the essence. Whenever the last day for the exercise of any privilege or the discharge of any duty under this Agreement shall fall upon Saturday, Sunday or any federal holiday, the party exercising or discharging shall have until 5:00 p.m. its local time on the next succeeding regular business day to exercise such privilege or to discharge such duty; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be deemed to extend the effect of the 24 hour period described in the Standstill Agreement to 5:00 p.m. local time on such next succeeding regular business day where 24 hours would lapse earlier, provided in all events the affected party shall have at least until 11:00 a.m. local time on such day. (e) Binding Effect; Assignment. All of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted transferees, successors and assigns; provided, however, that neither party hereto may assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other, except Buyer may assign its rights and obligations to a subsidiary or lower tier subsidiary. (f) Applicable Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be governed, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Hawaii. Each party hereto agrees that any legal action or proceeding against it and arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or any of the other Basic Documents, except the Stock Pledge Agreement, Agency Agreement, Holdback Agreement or Standstill Agreement (collectively, the "Oklahoma Agreements"), shall be instituted in the United States District Court for the District of Hawaii. By execution and delivery of this Agreement, each party irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of such courts in any such action or proceeding as to the Basic Documents other than the Oklahoma Agreements and waives any objections it may have with respect to such jurisdiction and venue therein. The foregoing shall not limit the rights of any party hereto to bring any legal action or proceeding or to obtain execution of judgment against any party in any appropriate jurisdiction. (g) Amendments. No supplement, modification or waiver of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the parties. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof, nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided. (h) Waivers. No waiver by any party, whether express or implied, of any right under the provisions of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of such party's rights at any other time. (i) Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any provision of this Agreement or any exhibit hereto is illegal, invalid or unenforceable, then such provision shall be modified automatically to the extent necessary to make such provision fully enforceable. If such court does not modify any such provision as contemplated herein, but instead declares it to be wholly illegal, invalid or unenforceable, then such provision shall be severed from this Agreement and such declaration shall in no way affect the legality, validity and enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement to which such declaration does not relate. In this event, this Agreement shall be construed as if it did not contain the particular provision held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be construed and enforced accordingly, and this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. (j) Press Release. Within two (2) business days of initial delivery by Seller of complete and conforming schedules hereto, Buyer shall, upon consultation with Seller, issue a press release in a form satisfactory to it, generally to the effect that, subject to its due diligence, it intends to retain the managers, supervisors and other key personnel necessary to continue a five (5) island vehicle rental operation and to honor all customer commitments constituting Liabilities. Nothing herein shall prevent Seller, upon prior consultation with Buyer, from issuing such press release as it deems necessary to comply with its obligations under federal and state securities laws. (k) Expenses. Each party shall bear its own cost and expenses in connection with the negotiation, preparation and execution of this Agreement. (l) Confidentiality. The Seller and the Buyer agree that the terms and conditions of this Agreement and of the transactions contemplated by it are to remain confidential, except to the extent that either party determines it is necessary under applicable law to disclose such terms and conditions including, without limitation, disclosures that may be required in light of Seller's status as a publicly held reporting company with the Securities and Exchange Commission and also expressly including conveyancing and instruments relating to liens and encumbrances recorded in the public records. (m) Construction. Headings provided herein are for the reference of the parties only, and shall not be used as an aid to construction of this Agreement. For purposes of enforcement hereof, this Agreement shall be construed as if having been prepared jointly by the parties hereto, and not by one party to the exclusion of the other, to avoid any construction against the party drafting the Agreement. (n) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be considered an original, and all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

In other words, the fact that an entry or other financial information may appear in a previous document delivered hereunder shall not limit Buyer's right to require in the Unaudited Closing Balance Sheet or Final Closing Balance Sheet that the same be prepared in accordance with GAAP Consistently Applied." 9.

(3) A Net Worth of the Division more positive than (or less negative than) the Minimum Net Worth Requirement as reflected in the Unaudited Balance Sheet or Final Balance Sheet shall not require Buyer pay any greater purchase consideration than that expressly provided hereunder. (4) If Buyer accepts the Net Worth Note where the Unaudited Net Worth is more negative than the sum of Six Hundred Thousand Dollars plus the principal amount of the Net Worth Note, with such sum then to be expressed as a negative number, such acceptance shall be in full satisfaction of any claims Buyer has in respect of a failure to satisfy the Minimum Net Worth Requirement except if the Final Net Worth is more negative than the Unaudited Net Worth." 25. Section 5 shall be amended to read as follows: "5. Determination of Final Net Worth. The Final Net Worth shall be determined and adjusted from the Unaudited Net Worth as follows: (a) Final Balance Sheet. Buyer shall, at Buyer's sole cost and expense, prepare and deliver to Seller within sixty (60) days of the date of Closing the draft Final Balance Sheet which shall include, in addition to the other information set forth therein, the draft Final Net Worth, and reflect resolution of any disputes subject to Sections 19(a) and (b) hereof (but not Section 20(f)(3), if applicable). The Final Balance Sheet, and the Assets and Liabilities reflected thereon, shall be prepared and determined in accordance with GAAP Consistently Applied as modified or clarified by the Agreed Practices, and shall be accompanied by a draft independent auditors' report thereon of Buyer's independent auditors, D&T, to the effect that the Final Balance Sheet, presents fairly in all material respects the net assets (deficiency in assets) sold by Seller effective as of the Settlement Date on the basis of GAAP Consistently Applied as modified or clarified by the Agreed Practices. Buyer and D&T shall make available to Seller upon Seller's request and its independent auditor, PW, all work papers, books and records used in the preparation and audit of the draft Final Balance Sheet, and shall provide copies of the same to Seller upon Seller's request. (b) Review Period. Seller shall have fifteen (15) business days after its receipt of (i) the draft Final Balance Sheet and related supplementary schedules, and (ii) if requested by Seller, all work papers, books and records used in the preparation and audit of the draft Final Balance Sheet, to review them ("Review Period"). On or prior to the expiration of the Review Period, Seller shall notify Buyer in writing whether it agrees or disagrees with Buyer's calculation of any negative or downward adjustment to the Unaudited Net Worth and, if it disagrees (the "Disagreement Notice"), the basis of its disagreement, including its calculation of any adjustment to the Final Net Worth. If Buyer does not receive the Disagreement Notice on or prior to the expiration of the Review Period, Seller shall be deemed to have approved the Final Balance Sheet and Buyer's calculation of the Final Net Worth. (c) Disagreement Procedure. If Buyer receives the Disagreement Notice, Seller and Buyer shall, in good faith, attempt to resolve the disagreement within fifteen (15) business days after Buyer's receipt of the Disagreement Notice. If they cannot resolve the disagreement within such time period, they promptly shall refer such disagreement for resolution to AA, or if AA is unable to serve or declines to act, or if at the time of such referral AA is not independent of each of Buyer and Seller, such other firm of independent accountants of recognized national standing as mutually selected by Buyer and Seller (AA or such other firm being referred to herein as the "Deciding Accountant"). The determination of the Deciding Accountant as to the calculation and amount of the Final Net Worth shall be rendered within thirty (30) days after such disagreement is referred to the Deciding Accountant, and shall be binding upon the parties hereto. (d) Cooperation with Deciding Accountant. [See Agreement Section 5(f) for text] (e) Resolution. The Final Balance Sheet as agreed to by the parties or as determined by the Deciding Accountant, and the Final Net Worth reflected thereon or determined under Section 5(f), shall be considered the "Final Balance Sheet" and the 'Final Net Worth,', for all purposes of this Agreement. (f) Alternative. In lieu of conducting the audit and presenting a Final Balance Sheet, Buyer may elect to perform or have performed on its behalf certain procedures at its sole discretion to determine that the Unaudited Balance Sheet has been fairly presented in accordance with GAAP Consistently Applied as modified or clarified by the Agreed Practices and that such other financial information disclosed in the exhibits and schedules to the Agreement has also been fairly prersented (the "Reported Information"). If Buyer elects to perform such procedures, it shall conduct the procedures within the same time periods specified for the audit. Likewise, Buyer will, if it disagrees with the Reported Information, furnish a letter with adequate supporting documentation to Seller, and respond to Seller's inquiries, all in the same time periods prescribed in the review process for the audit. If necessary, the Deciding Accountant will act to finalize any discrepancies in the Reported Information to assure the same are fairly presented pursuant to the standards noted above." 26. Section 6 shall be deleted and amended to read as follows: "6. Exchange Offer. (a) Terms. On or about October 31, 1995, Seller will commence the Exchange Offer to exchange the Debentures for the consideration specified below, and which such offer also provides for solicitation of Plan acceptances pursuant to a prepackaged bankruptcy from the holders of Debentures and their amendment of the indenture for the Debentures. The Exchange Offer is intended to be accomplished pursuant to the requirements of Section 3(a)(9) of the 1933 Act. The Exchange Offer requires a minimum tender of ninety-five percent (95%) of the outstanding face amount of the Debentures. If such tender is received, each such holder will receive (i) .50 on each $1.00 face amount of Debentures owned by such holder in cash, (ii) 0.769505 shares of Stock for each $1.00 in face amount of Debentures tendered, and (iii) the holder's prorata share of new debentures in the original face amount of One Million Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,050,000), less the face amount of Debentures not tendered and less the original principal amount of the Net Worth Note, if any, which new debentures will be stripped of any covenant rights or conversion features except for payment obligations. In the event Seller elects to proceed with filing of the Bankruptcy Case in accordance with the Plan acceptances solicited as a part of the Exchange Offer, each holder will upon the Effective Date instead receive (A) the holder's prorata share of the Cash Amount minus claims and expenses described in Section 9(hh), (B) 0.769505 shares of Stock for each $1.00 in face amount of Debentures tendered, and (C) the holder's prorata share of One Million Fifty Thousand Dollar ($1,050,000) principal amount of Seller's new debentures containing terms and conditions substantially similar to the existing Debentures, but stripped of any conversion features and covenant rights except for payment obligations; but reduced, however, by the amount of the Net Worth Note if accepted by Buyer, if any. The interest payable on the Debentures as of September 1, 1995 (except as to Debentures not tendered and without filing of the Bankruptcy Case), will be waived by the holders as a part of completing the Exchange Offer. (b) Consents to Closing. Upon Seller obtaining the requisite consents and verifications described in Section 9(l) and subject to satisfaction of the other conditions precedent to Buyer's obligations, the Closing shall occur as soon as practicable thereafter, but in any event not later than November 30, 1995. (c) Escrow. At Closing, the Cash Amount shall be transferred to the Escrow Agent acting pursuant to the Escrow Agreement. If the Exchange Offer is accomplished without filing of the Bankruptcy Case, and if less than one hundred percent (100%) of the holders tender the Debentures, the Escrow Agent shall immediately after closing the Exchange Offer return to Buyer that portion of the Cash Amount determined by multiplying the Cash Amount times a fraction, the numerator of which is the face amount of Debentures not tendered, and the denominator of which is Five Million Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($5,250,000). Upon (i) completion of an exchange of not less than 95% of the Debentures pursuant to the Exchange Offer or (ii) the Effective Date, Buyer and Seller shall provide a joint instruction to the Escrow Agent, as contemplated in the Escrow Agreement, designating the portions of the "Escrow Amount" (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) to be delivered to the parties entitled thereto, as provided herein, in the Exchange Offer documents, and in the Confirmed Plan." 27. A new Section 6A is added to read as follows: "6A. Receipt of Stock. For the agreements Buyer makes in this Sixth Amendment, Buyer shall be entitled to receive from Seller a portion of its authorized but unissued Stock. The amount and manner in which the Stock is to be received by Buyer is set forth below: (a) Amount of Stock. At Closing, Buyer shall receive from Seller ten percent (10%) of the fully diluted Stock, meaning that such percentage of ownership shall apply when considering the cumulative effect of (i) then issued and outstanding Stock or any derivative or other securities convertible into Stock, (ii) Stock received by Buyer, and (iii) Stock to be received by holders of Debentures under the Exchange Offer. (b) Registration Rights. At any time eighteen (18) months after Buyer's receipt of the Stock as provided in Section 6A(a) and until five (5) years thereafter, Buyer shall have the right to make one written request to Seller stating that Buyer proposes to sell and distribute publicly the Stock received and that it desires to have the sale and distribution of such shares registered under the 1933 Act. Any such exercise of a registration right by Buyer shall be at Seller's expense including, without limitation, registration expenses, attorneys' and accountants' fees, Blue Sky costs, printing, transfer agent fees and expenses, etc., save and except for any of Buyer's brokerage commissions incurred upon sale by it of the Stock. The demand registration rights described herein shall be for a shelf registration of the Stock, and Seller covenants to keep the registration statement effective pursuant thereto for a period of eighteen (18) months from when originally declared effective by the SEC. In addition to the demand registration rights, Buyer shall also be permitted to enjoy the benefit without cost or expense of having its Stock registered in any other registration of Stock filed by Seller. At the Closing, Seller and Buyer shall enter into a registration rights agreement generally reflecting the provisions described in this Section 6A, but more specifically identifying all requirements and procedures for the demand and incidental or piggyback registration rights described herein. Such registration rights agreement shall be prepared in a form reasonably acceptable to Buyer and Seller. (c) Deregistration. In the event Seller ever seeks deregistration with the SEC as a public company in accordance with Section 12(d) of the 1934 Act, or the SEC seeks deregistration of Seller pursuant to 1934 Act Section 12(j), then immediately thereupon, Buyer shall have the right and option to require Seller, within five (5) business days of notice by Buyer to Seller, to acquire all the Stock then owned by Buyer received pursuant hereto for a price equal to the average trading price for the Stock for the thirty (30) trading days immediately preceding the filing by Seller of such application. If no such trading price information is available, Seller and Buyer shall mutually agree on another method of establishing the price for the Stock for purposes hereof. Seller agrees to give notice to Buyer in the manner required hereby within two business days of its filing or the SEC's action for deregistration." 28. Section 7 shall be amended as follows: (a) The parenthetical in Section 7(a)(2) shall be deleted. Sections 7(a)(4), (5) and (6) shall be deleted. (b) A new Section 7(a)(4) shall be added to read as follows: "(4) The amount of any claim by Seller against Buyer for indemnity in accordance with this Agreement including, without limitation, the indemnity described in Section 9(aa)." (c) Section 7(b) shall be deleted, and Section 7(c) shall now be Section 7(b). (d) A new Section 7(c) shall be added to read as follows: "(c) Duration. Unless Buyer shall have declared a breach under Section 7(a) within one year (subject to extension as provided below) after the Closing, the pledge and security interest contemplated in this Section 7 shall lapse, and Buyer will execute an instruction to the agent acting pursuant to the Stock Pledge Agreement to deliver the South Seas stock to Seller. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if a voluntary or involuntary petition for relief under the Code is filed by or against Seller on or before the 367th day after the Closing, the pledge and security interest contemplated herein shall not lapse. If Buyer shall have declared a default under Section 7(a) within such one year period, or if such a petition for relief is filed by or against Seller within such 367-day period, the pledge and security interest contemplated herein shall remain in full force and effect, and the agent shall continue to hold the South Seas stock as provided in the Stock Pledge Agreement and in the Agency Agreement.

The following additional provisions shall be added to Section 9: "(v) Buyer shall have approved before submission the information set forth in the documents to obtain the certificates described in Section 12(s). (w) The Disclosure Statement and Plan shall contain evidence satisfactory to Buyer of, and Buyer shall satisfy itself as to: (i) the non-impairment (as contemplated by Code Section 1124) of all creditor classes other than Holders; (ii) Seller's ability to pay all Retained Liabilities to be paid under the Plan; and (iii) the lack of any unpaid tax obligations or other obligations giving rise to a claim entitled to priority under Code Section 507(a), except to the extent contemplated by Section 9(hh) hereof. (x) Houlihan shall provide an opinion addressed to Buyer that the consideration paid to Seller under this Agreement constitutes reasonably equivalent value, as contemplated by Code Section 548 and the Uniform Fraudulent Transfers Act as adopted by the State of Hawaii. Such opinion shall be in form and content satisfactory to Buyer, and shall be incorporated into and made a part of the Disclosure Statement. Buyer shall under no circumstance be deemed liable for the payment of any fee charged by Houlihan for providing such opinion. (y) The Disclosure Statement must contain a liquidation analysis, in form and content satisfactory to Buyer, revealing that the Holders and the Seller's stockholders will receive more under the Plan than they would in a liquidation occurring without consummation of this Agreement. Such liquidation analysis shall be prepared by Seller's chief financial officer, and must be reviewed and deemed reasonably true and correct by Houlihan. (z) The Disclosure Statement must contain a cash-flow analysis, in form and content satisfactory to Buyer, revealing Seller's ability to meet its Plan and other post-confirmation obligations (including, without limitation, Retained Liabilities), as they come due. Such cash flow analysis shall be prepared by Seller's chief financial officer, and must be reviewed and deemed reasonably true and correct by PW. (aa) The Plan must provide, and the Disclosure Statement must prominently note, that Seller shall indemnify Buyer against (i) claims by Seller or others for tax liabilities arising prior to or after commencement of the Bankruptcy Case; (ii) liability for administrative expenses contemplated by Code Section 503(b) alleged to be payable to any person or entity related in any way to Seller or the Bankruptcy Case, whether or not such administrative expenses are or become an Allowed Administrative Expense; (iii) Seller altering or amending the terms of this Agreement, the Exchange Offer, the Disclosure Statement or the Plan, pre- or post-Confirmation, to the extent such alteration or amendment impairs or detracts from the benefits to be derived thereunder by Buyer, directly or indirectly; (iv) against the failure of the Seller to timely and fully perform, from and after Closing, all of its post-Closing obligations to Buyer as set forth herein, including, without limitation, those arising under the Seller Delivered Agreements; and (v) recovery (or the alleged right to recover) against Buyer under any claim, right or cause of action whatsoever asserted by Seller (in its own right or as debtor in possession in the Bankruptcy Case), or by any trustee appointed in the Bankruptcy Case pursuant to Code Section 1104, or by any of Seller's creditors or stockholders, including, without limitation, claims, rights and causes of action arising under or which may be asserted under Chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code or under the Uniform Fraudulent Transfers Act or similar statutes. The foregoing indemnity shall include costs and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by Buyer in defending against such matters and in enforcing the terms of such agreements. (bb) The Disclosure Statement shall state that Seller's management, based on advice of Seller's litigation counsel, believes that closing this Agreement (and ratifying this Agreement through the Plan) is in the best interest of Seller's creditors and stockholders, and that the releases of Buyer to be effected by this Agreement are justified by the fact that the prospective benefits of litigation are outweighed by, among other things, (i) operating losses incurred by Seller's rental car division which impair its ability to continue operations as conducted prior to consummation of this Agreement; (ii) the fact that the cost to prosecute and defend the civil actions by and against Buyer are prohibitively high; and (iii) the elimination of risks associated with litigation with Buyer, including the risk that Buyer could terminate Seller's rights under the License Agreement and the Master Lease, and the risk that Seller would not prevail in its causes of action asserted against Buyer. (cc) The Plan must provide that Holders expressly consent to the classification and treatment of all parity (e.g., trade and other unsecured creditors not paid prior to the commencement of the Bankruptcy Case who are to be paid in full under the Plan) and inferior (i.e., stockholders who retain equity under the Plan) classes. The Disclosure Statement must prominently note such classification and treatment provisions, and that the Plan could not be confirmed absent the affirmative acceptance of the Holders as a class. (dd) The Plan must classify Buyer as a contingent secured creditor, based on Seller's indemnity and other post-Closing obligations owed to Buyer arising under this Agreement (including, without limitation, those arising under the Seller Delivered Agreements), and provide that the treatment for such claims, once liquidated, shall be satisfaction of such claims in full in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and all Seller Delivered Agreements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Plan must provide (and the Disclosure Statement must prominently note) (i) that all post-Closing obligations of Seller to Buyer arising under this Agreement and under the Seller Delivered Agreements shall be fully performed in accordance with their terms from and after Closing; and (ii) that Seller, in its own right and as debtor-in-possession in the Bankruptcy Case, and its successors, including any Chapter 7 or Chapter 11 trustee appointed in the Bankruptcy Case, fully and unconditionally release (A) Buyer of and from all claims, rights and causes of action whatsoever including, without limitation, all causes of action which may or could have been brought against Seller under Chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code; and (B) all parties, known or unknown, from claims, rights and causes of action which may or could have been brought against such parties under Chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Disclosure Statement must contain a statement that Seller's management is of the opinion that the releases described in (ii) above do not have an adverse impact on any of Seller's creditors or stockholders, due to the material benefits to be derived by such parties from ratification of this Agreement pursuant to the Confirmed Plan. [(ee) This subsection is intentionally blank.] (ff) The Plan must provide, and the Disclosure Statement must note, that the Effective Date shall occur ten (10) days after Confirmation, unless the Confirmation order is subject to a stay pending appeal, in which case the Effective Date shall occur on the earlier of (i) dissolution of the stay pending appeal, or (ii) upon the Confirmation order becoming a Final Order. (gg) The Disclosure Statement must contain Seller's management's estimate of Allowed Administrative Expenses (including professionals' fees) to be incurred in the Bankruptcy Case through the Effective Date. (hh) The Plan must provide, and the Disclosure Statement must note, that (i) the Escrow shall not terminate, and the Cash Amount escrowed shall not be distributed, until the occurrence of the Effective Date of the Confirmed Plan; and (ii) the only parties eligible under the Plan to receive distributions of the "Escrowed Amount" (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) are (A) holders of Allowed Administrative Expenses; (B) holders of claims against the Seller entitled to priority under Code Section 507(a)(3); and (C) the class of creditors which includes the holders of Debentures and all unsecured, non-priority creditors whose claims are not (1) contingent or disputed, or (2) paid in the ordinary course of Seller's business after commencement of the Bankruptcy Case (pursuant to Bankruptcy Court approval of such ordinary course payments). (ii) The final forms of the Plan, the Disclosure Statement, all proxy materials to be submitted to Seller's shareholders and all documents to be submitted to holders of Debentures as part of the Exchange Offer, shall be provided to Buyer by Seller not less than 48 hours prior to submission to such Debenture holders and shareholders.

This Agreement may be terminated and rescinded upon Buyer's written notice with the parties restored to their respective legal and contract positions existing before entering into this Agreement; provided, (i) Buyer shall be entitled to retain all payments made by Seller pursuant to existing agreements, and (ii) the pledge of the South Seas stock shall remain in place to the extent at such time amounts that are secured by the pledge pursuant to Section 7(a)(1), 7(a)(2), or 7(a)(3) are accrued or due and payable by Seller to Buyer (or are subject to good faith disputes in accordance with Section 19(a) and (b) hereof). As a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Amendment, and particularly considering the similar nature of such claims which have heretofore been raised in the litigation which is the subject of the Standstill Agreement and the fact that the exhibits and schedules are to be developed and modified from time to time after the date hereof, Seller hereby irrevocably and unqualifiedly waives any and all right to assert any challenge, claim or objection to Buyer's exercise of its right to terminate this Agreement for any reason, for no reason at all, and at any time prior to Closing, whether or not with justification, and including, without limitation, any assertion by Seller that Buyer's termination constitutes breach of any statutory or implied covenant of good faith, fair dealing or other duty, or as constituting any type of interference with prospective business advantage, contractual or business relationship, discrimination, economic duress or any other similar or dissimilar tort, breach of contract or any other theory of recovery whatsoever." 77. A new Section 22(a)(7) shall be added to read as follows: "For breach or violation of the covenants set forth in Section 17(a)(21), Buyer shall conclusively be deemed entitled to the appointment of (i) (during any period in which the Seller is not a debtor in a case filed under the Bankruptcy Code) a receiver of Seller's assets appointed pursuant to the statutes of the State of Hawaii; and (ii) (during any period in which the Seller is a debtor in a case pending under the Bankruptcy Code) a trustee pursuant to Code Section 1104. Seller expressly agrees that its breach or violation of such covenants shall constitute sufficient grounds for the granting of such relief under all applicable statutes." 78. The Escrow Agreement and Amended and Restated Stock Pledge Agreement shall be considered Oklahoma Agreements pursuant to Section 23(f). Except as amended hereby, Seller and Buyer ratify and reaffirm the Agreement. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Sixth Amendment to Settlement Agreement to be duly executed and delivered the day and year first above written.

This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable. Dollar shall be under no duty to exercise or withhold the exercise of any of the rights, powers, privileges, and options expressly or implicitly granted to Dollar in this Agreement, and shall not be liable for any failure to do so or any delay in doing so. Dollar shall not be liable for any act or omission or for any error of judgment or any mistake of fact or law in its individual capacity or in its capacity as attorney-in-fact except acts or omissions resulting from its gross negligence or willful misconduct. This power of attorney is conferred on Dollar solely to protect, preserve, and realize upon its security interest in the Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Dollar's rights to dispose of the Collateral pursuant to Section 5.1(c)(ix) above shall not be exercised unless and until the Collateral has been delivered to Dollar upon satisfaction of one of the conditions in Section 1.2 of the Agency Agreement attached hereto as Schedule 1. 5.2 Voting Rights. So long as no default under the Settlement Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing, Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting rights relating or pertaining to the Collateral or any part thereof. At the request of Dollar, Pledgor shall register on the books of the Company Dollar's right to vote the Collateral during the term hereof and in compliance herewith. 5.3 Dividends.

If Pledgor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein and Dollar itself shall cause performance of or compliance with such agreement, the expenses of Dollar, together with interest thereon at the rate of 15% per annum, shall be payable by Pledgor to Dollar on demand and shall constitute Performance Obligations secured by this Agreement. 5.5 Setoff; Property Held by Dollar. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Dollar shall have the right to set off and apply against the Performance Obligations, at any time and without notice to Pledgor, any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) or other sums at any time credited by or owing from Dollar to Pledgor. As additional security for the Performance Obligations, Pledgor hereby grants a security interest in all money, instruments, and other property of Pledgor now or hereafter held by Dollar including, without limitation, property held in safekeeping. In additional to Dollar's right of setoff and as further security for the Obligations, Pledgor hereby grants Dollar a security interest in all other sums at any time credited by or owing from Dollar to Pledgor. The rights and remedies of Dollar hereunder are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of setoff and recoupment) which Dollar may have. 5.6 Dollar's Duty of Care. Other than the exercise of reasonable care in the physical custody of the Collateral while held by Dollar or Agent hereunder, Dollar and Agent have shall have no responsibility for or obligation or duty with respect to all or any part of the Collateral or any matter or proceeding arising out of or relating thereto, including, without limitation, any obligation or duty to collect any sums due in respect thereof or to protect or preserve any rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto, it being understood and agreed that Pledgor shall be solely responsible for preservation of all rights in the Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Dollar or Agent shall be conclusively deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral if Dollar or Agent takes such action, for purposes of preserving rights in the Collateral, as Pledgor may reasonably request in writing, but no failure or omission or delay by Dollar in complying with any such request by Pledgor, and no refusal by Dollar or Agent in complying with any such request by Pledgor, shall in and of itself be deemed to be a failure to exercise reasonable care. 5.7 Assignment by Dollar. Dollar may from time to time assign the Collateral and any portion thereof, and the assignee shall be entitled to all of the rights and remedies, and responsible for all the duties and obligations, of Dollar under this Agreement in relation thereto. 5.8 Release of Collateral. Dollar may at any time release Collateral or any part thereof to Pledgor, and the receipt by the Pledgor of such release (which may include a written instruction to the Agent to surrender the Collateral to Pledgor) shall be a complete and full discharge of Dollar for Collateral so released, and Dollar shall thereafter be discharged from any liability or responsibility therefor. 6. Default. An "Event of Default," for purposes hereof, shall mean the failure of Pledgor to keep or perform any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement or to observe, honor and perform the terms and requirements of the Performance Obligations or any post-closing obligation under the Settlement Agreement. 7. Remedies. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Section and in the Agency Agreement attached hereto as Schedule 1, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Dollar shall have the following rights and remedies: 7.1 To take the actions described in Section 4.11(a) hereof. 7.2 In addition to any other rights and remedies granted to Dollar in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing, or relating to the Performance Obligations, Dollar shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted by the State of Oklahoma; including the right to (A) without demand or notice to Pledgor, collect, receive, or take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, (B) sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral, or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales in a commercially reasonable manner, at Dollar's offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit, or for future delivery, and/or (C) bid and become a purchaser at any sale free of any right or equity of redemption in Pledgor, which right or equity is hereby expressly waived and released by Pledgor. Upon the request of Dollar, Pledgor shall assemble the Collateral and make it available to Dollar at any place designated by Dollar that is reasonably convenient to Pledgor and Dollar. Pledgor agrees that neither Dollar nor the Agent shall be obligated to give more than ten (10) days written notice of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale may take place and that such notice shall constitute reasonable notice of such matters. In addition to such notice to Pledgor, Dollar shall furnish the same form of notice addressed to the five persons, firms or entities identified in a writing from Pledgor to Dollar, to the extent provided by Pledgor. Pledgor shall be liable for all expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, or the like, and all reasonable attorneys' fees and other expenses incurred by Dollar in connection with the collection of the Performance Obligations and the enforcement of Dollar's rights under this Agreement, all of which expenses and fees shall constitute additional Performance Obligations secured by this Agreement. Dollar may apply the Collateral against the Performance Obligations in such order and manner as Dollar may elect in its sole discretion. If the Performance Obligations are satisfied in full, Pledgor shall have the right to receive the balance of the proceeds, if any, from the sale or disposition of the Collateral. Pledgor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the Performance Obligations. Pledgor waives all rights of marshalling in respect of the Collateral. 7.3 Dollar shall be entitled to receive all cash dividends payable in respect of the Collateral. 7.4 Dollar shall have the right, but shall not be obligated to, exercise or cause to be exercised all voting rights and corporate powers in respect of the Collateral, and Pledgor shall immediately deliver to Dollar, if requested by Dollar, irrevocable proxies with respect to the Collateral in form satisfactory to Dollar. 7.5 Pledgor hereby acknowledges and confirms that Dollar may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all of the Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire any shares of the Collateral for their own respective accounts for investment and not with a view to distribution or resale thereof. Pledgor further acknowledges and confirms that any such private sale may result in prices or other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that the mere fact that such sale was conducted as a private sale shall not of itself establish that the sale was not made in a commercially reasonable manner, and Dollar shall be under no obligation to take any steps in order to permit the Collateral to be sold at a public sale. Dollar shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Collateral for any period of time necessary to permit any issuer thereof to register such Collateral for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under applicable state securities laws. 7.6 On any sale of the Collateral, Dollar is hereby authorized to comply with any limitation or restriction with which compliance is necessary, in the view of Dollar's counsel, in order to avoid any violation of applicable law or in order to obtain any required approval of the purchaser or purchasers by any applicable governmental authority. 8. Reinstatement. This Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any amount received by Dollar in respect of the Performance Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by Dollar upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Pledgor, or upon the appointment of any intervenor or receiver of, or trustee or similar official for the Pledgor, or any substantial part of Pledgor's assets, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made. 9.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF RECEIPT OF DISCLOSURE OF MODIFIED LICENSE AGREEMENT TERMS The undersigned acknowledges receipt of a disclosure of modification of the existing License Agreement, a copy of which is attached. Dated: July 18, 1995. PACIFIC INTERNATIONAL SERVICES CORP. By: _______________________________ Alan M. Robin, President Annex B October 27, 1995 To the Board of Directors of Pacific International Services Corp. We understand that pursuant to the terms and conditions of a Settlement Agreement dated as of July 18, 1995, as amended, (the "Settlement Agreement"), Pacific International Services Corp. ("PISC" or "the Company") will sell to Dollar Systems, Inc. ("Dollar") substantially all of the Company's assets relating or used in its vehicle rental operation ("Rental"), as well as 10% of the common stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis (the "Proposed Sale"). The Settlement Agreements provide for an aggregate purchase price equal to (i) a cash payment equal to approximately $2.63 million and (ii) the assumption by Dollar of the liabilities of Rental, including approximately $8.9 million in debt, $3.5 million in accrued Dollar lease and other payments, $2.1 million in past-due airport concession payments, $1.8 million in non-recurring self- insurance and environmental reserves and $0.25 million in accrued senior debt interest (each estimated as of October 31, 1995). Based upon the above, the implied purchase price is $19.2 million. If the net book value of the assets and liabilities of Rental at close (which will be deemed to occur October 31, 1995) are less than negative $0.6 million, the Company is required to issue Dollar a promissory note of up to $1.05 million to offset such shortfalls. The consummation of the Proposed Sale and the other transactions contemplated by the Settlement Agreement and disclosed to Houlihan Lokey are referred to collectively herein as the "Transaction". You have requested our Opinion (the "Opinion") as to the matters set forth above. This Opinion does not address the Company's underlying business decision to effect the Transaction. We have not been requested to, and did not, initiate any discussions with third parties with respect to alternatives to the Transaction. We have not been asked to express an opinion as to the relative merits of the Transaction compared to any alternative business strategies that might exist for the Company. In connection with this Opinion, we have made such reviews, analyses and inquiries as we have deemed necessary and appropriate under the circumstances. Among other things, we have: 1. reviewed PISC's annual reports to shareholders and audited financial statements on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1991, 1992, 1993 and 1994 and unaudited quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the most recent quarters ended March 31 and June 30, 1995, respectively, and preliminary unaudited financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 1995, which PISC's management has identified as being the most current financial statements available; 2. reviewed certain internal information, including pro forma financial forecasts and projections prepared by the Company; 3. conducted discussions with certain members of the senior management of the Company concerning its operations, financial condition, future prospects and projected operations and performance; 4. reviewed the historical market prices and trading volume for the Company's publicly traded stock; 5. reviewed certain other publicly available filings of the Company during the years 1993, 1994 and 1995; 6. discussed results of Dollar's due diligence with Dollar and its advisors; 7. reviewed publicly available financial data for certain companies that we deem similar to Rental, and publicly available information for transactions that we considered similar to the Transaction; 8. reviewed the Settlement Agreement, and the exhibits thereto, connected with the Transaction; 9. reviewed issues related to potential environmental, litigation, fleet risk, self-insurance and excise tax contingent liabilities; 10. discussed with certain members of senior management of the Company values achievable under a liquidation scenario; and 11. conducted such other studies, analyses and inquiries as we have deemed appropriate. We have relied upon and assumed, without independent verification, that the financial forecasts and projections provided to us have been reasonably prepared and reflect the best currently available estimates of the future financial results and condition of Rental and that there has been no material change in the assets, financial condition, business or prospects of Rental since the date of the most recent financial statements made available to us. We have not independently verified the accuracy and completeness of the information supplied to us with respect to Rental and do not assume any responsibility with respect to it. We have not made an independent appraisal of any of the properties or assets of the Company. Our opinion is necessarily based on business, economic, market and other conditions as they exist and can be evaluated by us at the date of this letter. Based upon the foregoing, and in reliance thereon, it is our opinion that the Transaction is fair to Pacific International Services Corp. from a financial point of view.
