Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 12, 2008, AmeriCredit Corp. (the “Company”) and Fairholme Funds, Inc. (“Fairholme”) entered into a letter agreement which, among other things, granted Fairholme the right to designate a director on the Company’s Board of Directors. This letter agreement was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) as Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on December 15, 2008. On November 19, 2009, the Company and Fairholme amended the letter agreement regarding Fairholme’s right to so designate a director. The amendment to the letter agreement is filed with this Form 8-K/A as Exhibit 10.1 hereto.

Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

Item 5.02 contained in the Form 8-K filed by AmeriCredit Corp. (the “Company”) on November 16, 2009 is hereby amended to delete the statement that “Mr. Sturges was designated by Fairholme Funds, Inc. (“Fairholme”) to fill the unexpired term of Mr. Berkowitz position, which expires in 2012.” Item 5.02 is hereby amended to reflect that Mr. Sturges was elected as a director by the Board of Directors, after approval of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of such nomination to the Board, to fill the vacancy resulting from the resignation of Mr. Berkowitz, but was not designated by Fairholme to fill this vacancy and does not represent Fairholme on the Board. Mr. Sturges will be compensated a prorated amount under the Company’s Non-Employee Director Compensation Plan for Fiscal 2010, a copy of which is attached to this Form 8-K/A as Exhibit 10.2.

Investors should not rely on the statement in the Company’s November 16, 2009 press release that Mr. Sturges is the designee of Fairholme.

Additionally, the Company and Fairholme have agreed that Fairholme will no longer have a contractual right to appoint a designee to the Company’s Board of Directors. The discussion above in Item 1.01 regarding this amendment is incorporated by reference into this Item 5.02.

Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
