Section 8 — Other Events

 

Item 8.01 Other Events

 

On September 26, 2008, the Company signed a non-binding outline of terms with an institutional lender for a credit facility that would refinance indebtedness outstanding under the Company’s senior secured credit facility.  The interest rate payable under the proposed credit facility is substantially higher than the rate payable under the existing senior secured credit facility.  If a definitive agreement is reached, funding would be subject to several conditions, including the sale by the Company of its Camping World subsidiary at its fair market value, which is currently estimated to be approximately $80 million, completion of a due diligence investigation and completion of loan documentation.  The purchaser of Camping World, Inc. and its subsidiaries is expected to be an affiliate of the Company and the sale would be subject to various conditions, including the purchaser’s ability to obtain financing for the transaction.
