Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On May 14, 2025, Penske Automotive Group, Inc. (“we” or “the Company”) entered into an Amended and Restated Services Agreement with Mitsui & Co (U.S.A.), Inc. (“Mitsui USA”) under which Mitsui USA employee Yosuke Kawakami, our newly elected member of the Board of Directors, assists us in the strategic development of business opportunities and relationships in transportation related industries and the evaluation of new technologies in the automotive and trucking sectors (the “Services Agreement”). The Services Agreement amends and restates a previously executed services agreement with Mitsui USA (the “Original Services Agreement”). We pay a quarterly fee of $87,500 for the services contemplated by the Services Agreement. The foregoing description of the Services Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Service Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein.

Item 404(a) Related Party Disclosure with Respect to Mitsui

Stockholders Agreement. Entities affiliated with Roger Penske, our Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, are parties to a stockholders agreement described below. Mr. Penske is also Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Penske Corporation (“PC”), and, through entities affiliated with PC, our largest stockholder. The parties to the stockholders agreement are Mitsui & Co., Ltd., Mitsui USA (collectively, “Mitsui”), PC and Penske Automotive Holdings Corp. (collectively the “Penske companies”).

Pursuant to the stockholders agreement, which expires March 26, 2030, in connection with any shareholder election of directors of the Company, the Penske companies agreed to vote their shares for two directors who are representatives of Mitsui as long as Mitsui owns in excess of 20% of our outstanding common stock, and for one director as long as Mitsui owns in excess of 10% of our outstanding common stock. Mitsui agreed to vote its shares for up to fourteen directors voted for by the Penske companies. In addition, the Penske companies agreed that if they transfer any of our shares of common stock, Mitsui would be entitled to “tag along” by transferring a pro rata amount of its shares upon similar terms and conditions, subject to certain limitations.

We and Mitsui have agreed that Mitsui has a right to (1) an observer at all of our Board of Directors meetings so long as Mitsui owns at least 2.5% of our outstanding common stock, and (2) designate a senior executive so long as Mitsui owns at least 10% of our outstanding common stock.

Registration Rights Agreements. Both the Penske companies and Mitsui possess registration rights pursuant to which they are able on two remaining occasions each to register all or part of our common stock held by them, subject to specified limitations. They are also entitled to request inclusion of all or any part of their common stock in any registration of securities by us on Forms S-1 or S-3 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Penske Transportation Solutions. We hold a 28.9% ownership interest in Penske Truck Leasing Co., L.P (“PTL”). PTL is owned 41.1% by PC, 28.9% by us, and 30.0% by Mitsui. Penske Transportation Solutions (“PTS”) is the universal brand name for PTL’s various business lines through which it is capable of meeting customers’ needs across the supply chain with a broad product offering that includes full-service truck leasing, truck rental and contract maintenance, along with logistics services such as dedicated contract carriage, distribution center management, freight management and dry van truckload carrier services.

The PTS partnership agreement, among other things, provides us with specified partner distribution and governance rights and restricts our ability to transfer our interest. PTS has an eleven member Advisory Board. We have the right to appoint one Advisory Board member and the right to an observer for any Board committees. Robert H. Kurnick, Jr., our President, serves as our representative. Lisa Davis and Michael Eisenson, two of our directors, also serve as Advisory Board members of PTS. We have the right to pro rata quarterly distributions equal to at least 50% of PTS’s consolidated net income and have minority rights which require our and/or Mitsui’s consent for certain actions taken by PTS as specified in the partnership agreement.

We may transfer our directly owned interests with the unanimous consent of the other partners, or if we provide the remaining partners with a right of first offer to acquire our interests, except that we may transfer up to 9.02% of our interest to PC without complying with the right of first offer to the remaining partner. We and PC have previously agreed that (1) in the event of any transfer by PC of their partnership interests to a third party, we will be entitled to “tag-along” by transferring a pro rata amount of our partnership interests on similar terms and conditions, and (2) PC is entitled to a right of first refusal in the event of any transfer of our partnership interests, subject to the terms of the partnership agreement. Additionally, PTS has agreed to indemnify the general partner for any actions in connection with managing PTS, except those taken in bad faith or in violation of the partnership agreement. The partnership agreement allows each of PC, Mitsui and us to give notice to require PTS to begin to effect an initial public offering of equity securities, subject to certain limitations, as soon as reasonably practicable.

In February 2025, one of our Australian subsidiaries and an Australian affiliate of Mitsui signed a two-year Master Goods & Services Agreement whereby we agreed to provide power systems maintenance services with expected revenues over the period of approximately $750,000.

Under the Original Services Agreement, Mitsui employee Kota Odagiri, our former director, assisted us in the strategic development of business opportunities and relationships in transportation related industries and the evaluation of new technologies in the automotive and trucking sectors. In 2024, we paid $350,000 for Mr. Odagiri’s services to Mitsui under the Original Services Agreement. Mr. Odagiri received no additional compensation relating to his Board membership during 2024 from us other than $40,386 representing a Company vehicle, Company sponsored lunch program, spousal travel expenses and a tax allowance of $10,601.
