  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
  On October 14, 2011, our Avis Budget Rental Car Funding (AESOP) LLC subsidiary ("ABRCF") completed an amendment and renewal of its asset-backed variable-funding financing facilities, which provide a portion of the financing for our car rental fleet in the United States.  This financing was previously comprised of two facilities, known as the Series 2008-1 Notes and the Series 2010-6 Notes.  At our request, the Series 2008-1 facility was combined into the Series 2010-6 facility.  The aggregate commitment of the purchaser groups of the 2010-6 facility was increased by $450 million for an aggregate maximum available amount of $2.5 billion.  The Series 2010-6 facility
  is a two-year facility with an expiration date of October 11, 2013.  ABRCF originally issued the Series 2010-6 Notes under the Amended and Restated Series 2010-6 Supplement dated October 22, 2010, between ABRCF and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. ("BNYMellon"), as trustee and as Series 2010-6 Agent, to the Second Amended and Restated Base Indenture, dated as of June 3, 2004, as amended, between the Issuer and BNYMellon, as trustee.
  The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete terms of the Amended and Restated Series 2010-6 Supplement, a copy of which is filed as
