Acquisitions	6. Acquisitions 2020 Avis and Budget Licensees During 2020, the Company completed the acquisitions of various licensees in North America and Europe, for approximately $28 million, plus $22 million for acquired fleet. These investments were in-line with the Company’s strategy to re-acquire licensees when advantageous to expand its footprint of Company-operated locations. The acquired fleet was financed under the Company’s existing financing arrangements. In connection with these acquisitions, approximately $28 million was recorded in other intangibles related to license agreements. The license agreements are being amortized over a weighted average useful life of approximately two years. The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed has not yet been finalized and is therefore subject to change. 2019 Avis and Budget Licensees In 2019, the Company completed the acquisitions of various licensees, primarily in North America, for approximately $55 million, plus $27 million for acquired fleet, of which $74 million was paid in 2019 and the remaining purchase price was primarily paid in 2020. These investments were in-line with the Company’s strategy to re-acquire licensees when advantageous to expand its footprint of Company-operated locations. The acquired fleet was financed under the Company’s existing financing arrangements. The excess of the purchase price over preliminary fair value of net assets acquired was allocated to goodwill, which was assigned to the Company’s Americas reportable segment. In connection with these acquisitions, approximately $21 million was recorded in goodwill, other intangibles of $24 million related to license agreements and $7 million related to customer relationships. The license agreements and customer relationships are being amortized over a weighted average useful life of approximately three years. The goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Differences between the preliminary allocation of purchase price and the final allocation were not material for Avis and Budget Licensees.
