Lease commitments

At June 30, 2013, we leased the majority of our dealership and reconditioning center locations. We also leased our corporate office in Phoenix, Arizona, and operations collection facilities in Dallas, Texas. As of June 30, 2013, we had approximately $67.5 million in aggregate operating lease obligations.

Legal matters

We are involved in various claims and actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, based on consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on us. We believe appropriate accruals have been made for the disposition of these matters. In accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies, we establish an accrual for a liability when it is both probable that the liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. These accruals are reviewed monthly and adjusted to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements and payments, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular case. Legal expenses related to defense, negotiations, settlements, rulings, and advice of outside legal counsel are expensed as incurred.

There have been no material changes to the status of pending litigation or our accruals for legal matters disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, filed on March 28, 2013. We continue to work closely with the CFPB to provide details and clarity related to their original request.

Additionally, in the ordinary course of business, we are a defendant in various other types of legal proceedings. Although we cannot determine at this time the amount of the ultimate exposure from these lawsuits, if any, based on the advice of counsel, management does not expect the final outcome to have a material adverse effect on us.
