CARVANA CO. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

 
NOTE 1 — BUSINESS ORGANIZATION

Description of Business

Carvana Co. and its wholly-owned subsidiary Carvana Co. Sub (collectively, "Carvana Co.") together with its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company”) is a leading eCommerce platform for buying used cars. The Company is transforming the used car buying experience by giving consumers a wide selection, great value and quality, transparent pricing and a simple, no pressure transaction. Using the Company’s website, consumers can research and identify a vehicle, inspect it using the Company’s proprietary 360-degree vehicle imaging technology, obtain financing and warranty coverage, purchase the vehicle, and schedule delivery or pick-up, all from their desktop or mobile devices.

Organization and Initial Public Offering

Carvana Co. is a holding company that was formed as a Delaware corporation on November 29, 2016 for the purpose of completing an initial public offering ("IPO") and related transactions in order to operate the business of Carvana Group, LLC and its subsidiaries (collectively, "Carvana Group"). Substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities represent the assets and liabilities of Carvana Group. 

Carvana Group was formed as a limited liability company by DriveTime Automotive Group, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries and affiliates “DriveTime”) and commenced operations in 2012. Prior to November 1, 2014, Carvana Group was a wholly-owned subsidiary of DriveTime. On November 1, 2014 (the “Distribution Date”), DriveTime distributed its member units in Carvana Group to the unit holders of DriveTime on a pro rata basis (the “Distribution”). Carvana Group accounted for the Distribution as a spinoff transaction in accordance with ASC 505-60, Equity — Spinoffs and Reverse Spinoffs and reflected assets and liabilities before and after the Distribution Date at their historical basis.

On May 3, 2017 , Carvana Co. completed its IPO of 15.0 million shares of Class A common stock at a public offering price of $15.00 per share. Carvana Co. received approximately $205.9 million in proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses, which it used to purchase approximately 18.8 million newly-issued membership interests of Carvana Group at a price per unit equal to 0.8 times the initial public offering price less underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses.

Also in connection with the IPO, the Company completed the following organizational transactions (the “Organizational Transactions”):

Carvana Group amended and restated its limited liability company operating agreement (the "LLC Agreement") to, among other things, (i) eliminate a class of preferred membership interests, (ii) provide for two classes of common ownership interests in Carvana Group held by the then-existing holders of LLC units (the "Existing LLC Unitholders") consisting of Class B common units (the “Class B Units”) and Class A common units (the “Class A Units”), and (iii) appoint Carvana Co. as the sole manager of Carvana Group;

Carvana Co. amended and restated its certificate of incorporation to authorize (i) 50.0 million shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, (ii) 500.0 million shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and (iii) 125.0 million shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share. Each share of Class A common stock generally entitles its holder to one vote on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. Each share of Class B common stock held by Ernest Garcia, II, Ernie Garcia, III and entities controlled by one or both of them (collectively, the "Garcia Parties") generally entitles its holder to ten votes on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. All other shares of Class B common stock generally entitle their holders to one vote per share on all matters to be voted on by stockholders;

Carvana Group converted its outstanding Class C redeemable preferred units into approximately 43.1 million Class A Units;

Carvana Co. issued approximately 117.2 million shares of Class B common stock to holders of Class A Units, on a four -to- five basis with the number of Class A Units they owned, for nominal consideration; and,

7

CARVANA CO. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
(Unaudited)




Carvana Co. transferred approximately 0.2 million Class A Units to Ernest Garcia, II in exchange for his 0.1% ownership interest in Carvana, LLC, a majority-owned subsidiary of Carvana Group.

In accordance with the LLC Agreement, Carvana Co. has all management powers over the business and affairs of Carvana Group and conducts, directs and exercises full control over the activities of Carvana Group. Class A Units and Class B Units (the "LLC Units") do not hold voting rights which results in Carvana Group being considered a variable interest entity ("VIE"). Due to Carvana Co.'s power to control and its significant economic interest in Carvana Group, it is considered the primary beneficiary of the VIE and the Company consolidates the financial results of Carvana Group.

The Organizational Transactions described above are considered transactions between entities under common control. As a result, the financial statements for periods prior to the IPO and Organizational Transactions have been adjusted to combine the previously separate entities for presentation purposes.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The Company believes the disclosures made are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading. However, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in the final prospectus for Carvana Co.’s IPO filed April 28, 2017 pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with the SEC.
    
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring items) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2017 , its results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , and the changes in its stockholders' equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 . The Company discloses all material changes in its members’ equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 throughout the accompanying notes, and, therefore, does not separately present a statement of changes in members’ equity for this period in its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year performance because of the impact of seasonal and short-term variations.

As discussed in Note 1 — Business Organization , Carvana Group is considered a VIE and Carvana Co. consolidates its financial results due to the determination that it is the primary beneficiary. The Company reviews subsidiaries and affiliates, as well as other entities, to determine if it should be considered variable interest entities, and whether it should change the consolidation determinations based on changes in its characteristics. The Company considers an entity a VIE if its equity investors own an interest therein that lacks the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or if such investors do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or if the entity is structured with non-substantive voting interests. To determine whether or not the entity is consolidated with the Company’s results, the Company also evaluates which interests are variable interests in the VIE and which party is the primary beneficiary of the VIE.

Liquidity

The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. From inception, the Company has funded operations through the sale of Class A Units, its IPO completed on May 3, 2017 for net proceeds of approximately $205.9 million , the sale of Class C Redeemable Preferred Units, capital contributions from DriveTime and short-term funding from the Company’s majority owner.  The Company has historically funded vehicle inventory purchases through its Floor Plan Facility, described in further detail in Note 7 — Debt Instruments , and has approximately $79.9 million available under the Floor Plan Facility to fund future vehicle inventory purchases as of September 30, 2017 . The Company has also funded some of its capital expenditures through long-term financing with third parties as described in further detail in Note 7 —

CARVANA CO. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
(Unaudited)



Debt Instruments . Management believes that current working capital and expected continued capital expenditure financing is sufficient to fund operations for at least one year from the financial statement issuance date.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. Certain accounting estimates involve significant judgments, assumptions and estimates by management that have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period, which management considers to be critical accounting estimates. The judgments, assumptions and estimates used by management are based on historical experience, management’s experience and other factors, which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the nature of the judgments and assumptions made by management, actual results could differ materially from these judgments and estimates, which could have a material impact on the carrying values of the Company’s assets and liabilities and the results of operations.

Comprehensive Loss

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , the Company did not have any other comprehensive income and, therefore, the net loss and comprehensive loss were the same for all periods presented.

Restricted Cash

The restricted cash includes the deposit required under the Company's Floor Plan Facility, which is 5% of the outstanding floor plan facility principal balance, as explained in Note 7 — Debt Instruments and amounts held as restricted cash as required under letter of credit agreements, as explained in Note 13 — Commitments and Contingencies .

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred income tax assets and liabilities related to the expected future tax consequences arising from temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities based on enacted statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. Any effects of changes in income tax rates or laws are included in income tax expense in the period of enactment. A valuation allowance is recognized if the Company determines it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be recognized.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-17, Interests Held through Related Parties That Are Under Common Control ("ASU 2016-17"), which updates the consolidation requirements when evaluating whether or not the entity is the primary beneficiary of a VIE with regard to interests held by related parties under common control. Under ASU 2016-17, entities will consider all indirect economic interests in a VIE held by related parties on a proportionate basis regardless of whether or not the related parties are under common control. The update is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. Since the Company has adopted ASU 2015-02, ASU 2016-17 requires retrospective application to all periods presented. The Company adopted ASU 2016-17 on January 1, 2017 and it did not have an impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations ("ASU 2017-01"), which narrows the definition of a business and assists entities to evaluate whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions of assets or businesses. Under ASU 2017-01, when substantially all the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the purchase of the assets are not deemed to comprise a business. The update is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2017-01 on January 1, 2017 and it did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted

Since May 2014, the FASB has issued several accounting standards updates related to revenue recognition including ASC 606,  Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), which amends the guidance in ASC 605, Revenue Recognition ("ASC 605"), and provides a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers. ASC 606 contains principles that an entity will apply to determine the measurement of revenue and timing of when it is recognized. The entity will recognize revenue to reflect the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 addresses how entities should identify goods and services being provided to a customer, the unit of account for a principal versus agent assessment, how to evaluate whether a good or service is controlled before being transferred to a customer and how to assess whether an entity controls services performed by another party. ASC 606 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017 with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt ASC 606 for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2018 and plans to use the modified retrospective method.

The Company is continuing to evaluate all potential impacts of ASC 606. Thus far, the Company's assessment has included gaining an understanding of the new standard, inventorying its revenue streams, analyzing and mapping contract features to revenue streams and considering the enhancement of disclosures related to revenue. While the Company has not completed its evaluation, it expects similar performance obligations to result under ASC 606 as compared with deliverables and separate units of accounting currently identified under ASC 605. The Company expects adoption of ASC 606 to impact the presentation of returns on its consolidated balance sheet. Based on the evaluation to date and the manner in which the Company recognizes revenue, the Company does not anticipate a material impact on the amount or timing of its revenue recognition as a result of adopting ASC 606.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,  Leases   (Topic 842)  (“ASU 2016-02”) related to the accounting for leases. This ASU introduces a lessee model that requires a right-of-use asset and lease obligation to be presented on the balance sheet for all leases, whether operating or financing. The ASU eliminates the requirement in current U.S. GAAP for an entity to use bright-line tests in determining lease classification. Expense recognition on the income statement remains similar to current lease accounting guidance. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company plans to adopt this ASU for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2019. The adoption of this ASU will require the recognition of a right-of-use asset and a lease obligation for the Company’s leases (see Note 13 — Commitments and Contingencies ).

NOTE 5 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Shared Services Agreement with DriveTime

In November 2014, the Company and DriveTime entered into a shared services agreement whereby DriveTime provided certain accounting and tax, legal and compliance, information technology, telecommunications, benefits, insurance, real estate, equipment, corporate communications, software and production and other services to facilitate the transition of these services to the Company on a standalone basis (the “Shared Services Agreement”). The Shared Services Agreement was most recently amended and restated in April 2017 and operates on a year-to-year basis after February 2019, with the Company having the right to terminate any or all services with 30 days' prior written notice and DriveTime having the right terminate certain services effective December 2017 and other services effective July 2018, in each case with 90 days' prior written notice. DriveTime provides the Company with certain benefits, tax reporting and compliance, telecommunications and information technology services under the amended agreement. Charges allocated to the Company are based on the Company’s actual use of the specific services detailed in the Shared Services Agreement. Total expenses related to the shared services agreement were approximately $0.0 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and approximately $0.1 million and $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Aircraft Time Sharing Agreement

The Company entered into an agreement to share usage of two aircraft operated by Verde Investments, Inc., an affiliate of DriveTime, (“Verde”) on October 22, 2015, and the agreement was subsequently amended on May 15, 2017. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company agreed to reimburse Verde for actual expenses for each of its flights. The original agreement was for 12 months, with perpetual 12 -month automatic renewals. Either the Company or Verde can terminate the agreement with 30 days’ prior written notice. The Company reimbursed Verde approximately $0.0 million and $0.1 million under this agreement during the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and approximately $0.4 million and $0.3 million under this agreement during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively.

Lease Agreements

In November 2014, the Company and DriveTime entered into a lease agreement that governs the Company’s access to and utilization of temporary storage, reconditioning, office, and parking space at various DriveTime inspection and reconditioning centers ("IRCs") and retail facilities (the "DriveTime Lease Agreement"). The DriveTime Lease Agreement was most recently amended in August 2017. Lease duration varies by location, with the earliest expiration occurring in 2017. Most delivery hubs have two -year terms and the Company is entitled to exercise up to two consecutive one -year renewal options at up to ten of these locations. The DriveTime Lease Agreement provides that the Company may take over DriveTime's leases for the inspection and reconditioning centers that the Company uses as IRCs in their entirety on July 31, 2018, subject to the Company obtaining releases of DriveTime's liability under the applicable leases and causing DriveTime to be paid for any unamortized costs.

Under the DriveTime Lease Agreement, the Company pays a monthly rental fee related to its pro rata utilization of space at each facility plus a pro rata share of each facility’s actual insurance costs and real estate taxes. The Company is additionally responsible for paying for any tenant improvements it requires to conduct its operations and its share of estimated costs incurred by DriveTime related to preparing these sites for use. As it relates to locations where the Company reconditions vehicles, the Company’s share of facility and shared reconditioning supplies expenses are calculated monthly by multiplying the actual costs for operating the inspection centers by the Company’s pro rata share of total reconditioned vehicles and parking spaces at such inspection centers in a given month. Management has determined that the costs allocated to the Company are based on a reasonable methodology.

Separate from the DriveTime Lease Agreement, in December 2016, the Company entered into a lease agreement related to a vehicle inspection and reconditioning center in Tolleson, Arizona, with Verde, with an initial term of approximately 15 years. The lease agreement requires monthly rental payments and can be extended for four additional five -year periods. In February 2017, the Company also entered into a lease with DriveTime for sole occupancy of a fully-operational inspection and reconditioning center in Winder, Georgia, where the Company previously maintained partial occupancy. The lease has an initial term of eight years, subject to the Company's ability to exercise three renewal options of five years each. The base rent for both of these leases will be subject to adjustment each year beginning January 1, 2018, increasing in an amount equal to the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index, which amount shall not exceed 5% and shall not be less than 2% .

Expenses related to these lease agreements are allocated based on usage to inventory and selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations. Costs allocated to inventory are recognized as cost of sales when the inventory is sold. During the three months ended September 30, 2017 , total costs related to these lease agreements were approximately $1.8 million with approximately $0.6 million and $1.2 million allocated to inventory and selling, general, and administrative expenses, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , total costs related to these lease agreements were approximately $5.2 million with approximately $1.8 million and $3.4 million allocated to inventory and selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2016 , total costs related to these lease agreements were approximately $0.7 million with approximately $0.4 million and $0.3 million allocated to inventory and selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016 , total costs related to these lease agreements were approximately $1.8 million with approximately $1.1 million and $0.7 million allocated to inventory and selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively.

Corporate Office Leases

In November 2015, the Company entered into a lease agreement with Verde for its then corporate headquarters. The rent expense incurred related to this lease for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 was approximately $0.2 million and $0.6 million . In December 2016, Verde sold the building and assigned the lease to a third party.

During the first quarter of 2017, the Company subleased additional office space at DriveTime’s corporate headquarters in Tempe, Arizona. Pursuant to this arrangement, the Company incurred rent of approximately $0.1 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 . This arrangement terminated in March 2017.

As discussed in Note 13 — Commitments and Contingencies , in September 2016, the Company entered into a lease with a third party for the second floor of its corporate headquarters in Tempe, Arizona. DriveTime guarantees up to $0.5 million of the Company's rent payments under that lease through September 2019 . In connection with that lease, the Company entered into a sublease with DriveTime for the use of the first floor of the same building. Pursuant to this sublease, which has a term of 83 months and is co-terminus with DriveTime's master lease, subject to the right to exercise three   five -year extension options, the Company will pay DriveTime rent equal to the amounts due under DriveTime's master lease. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 , the rent expense incurred related to this first floor sublease was approximately $0.2 million and $0.5 million , respectively.

Vehicle Inventory Purchases

Through September 2016, the Company selected vehicle inventory and used DriveTime's auction numbers to facilitate purchases under a non-interest bearing agreement requiring periodic repayments. Vehicles purchased under this agreement were acquired by the Company at DriveTime's cost of the vehicles purchased with no markup. Beginning October 1, 2016, the Company purchased its vehicle inventory independently and made the payments itself through its vehicle inventory financing and security agreement. See Note 7 — Debt Instruments for further information.

Repurchase of Finance Receivables from DriveTime

On January 20, 2016, the Company repurchased approximately $72.4 million of finance receivables from DriveTime related to loans the Company originated and previously sold under the terms of the DriveTime receivable purchase agreement (the “DriveTime Receivable Purchase Agreement”) discussed below for a price of approximately $74.6 million . Such receivables were immediately sold by the Company to third party purchasers under the transfer and note purchase and security agreements for the same price of approximately $74.6 million .

DriveTime Receivable Purchase Agreement

In June 2014, the Company entered into the DriveTime Receivable Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Company may sell to DriveTime and DriveTime may purchase from the Company finance receivables that the Company originates in conjunction with the sale of vehicles. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the Company did not have any receivables due from DriveTime for the sales of such receivables. As of September 30, 2017 , DriveTime is not obligated to make any additional purchases under the agreement.

Master Dealer Agreement

In December 2016, the Company entered into a master dealer agreement with DriveTime, pursuant to which the Company may sell certain ancillary products, including vehicle service contracts ("VSCs"), to customers purchasing a vehicle from the Company through its transaction platform. The Company earns a commission on each VSC sold to its customers and DriveTime subsequently administers the VSCs. The Company collects the retail purchase price of the VSCs from its customers and remits the net fee to DriveTime on a periodic basis. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 , the Company recognized approximately $2.4 million and $6.1 million , respectively, of commissions earned on VSCs sold to its customers and administered by DriveTime. The commission earned on the sale of these VSCs is included in other sales and revenues in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations.

The outstanding principal balance of $35.0 million and accrued interest of approximately $0.4 million were repaid in full and the Verde Credit Facility agreement terminated in connection with the IPO completed on May 3, 2017 .

IP License Agreement

In February 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement that governs the rights of certain intellectual property owned by the Company and the rights of certain intellectual property owned by DriveTime. The license agreement generally provides that each party grants to the other certain limited exclusive (other than with respect to the licensor party and its affiliates) and non-exclusive licenses to use certain of its intellectual property and each party agrees to certain covenants not to sue the other party, its affiliates and certain of its service providers in connection with various patent claims. The exclusive license to DriveTime is limited to the business that is primarily of subprime used car sales to retail customers. However, upon a change of control of either party, both parties’ license rights as to certain future improvements to licensed intellectual property and all limited exclusivity rights are terminated. The agreement does not provide a license to any of the Company's patents, trademarks, logos, customers’ personally identifiable information or any intellectual property related to the Company's vending machine, automated vehicle photography or certain other elements of the Company's brand.

Accounts Payable Due to Related Party

Amounts payable to DriveTime and Verde under the agreements explained above, as well as invoices DriveTime initially paid on behalf of the Company for vehicle reconditioning costs and general and administrative expenses, are included in accounts payable to related party in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

NOTE 6 — FINANCE RECEIVABLE SALE AGREEMENTS

Transfer Agreements and Note Purchase and Security Agreements

In January 2016, the Company entered into transfer agreements pursuant to which it sold finance receivables meeting certain underwriting criteria to certain third party purchasers who engage DriveTime as servicer of such receivables. Pursuant to certain note purchase and security agreements, entered into in connection with the transfer agreements, such third party purchasers of receivables issued notes to certain parties, including Delaware Life Insurance Company (“Delaware Life”), in which Mark Walter has a substantial ownership interest. Mark Walter also indirectly controls CVAN Holdings, LLC, an Existing LLC Unitholder, and has non-controlling ownership interests in the other note purchasers under the note purchase and security agreements. On February 27, 2017, Delaware Life sold its interest in the notes under the note purchase and security agreements to an unrelated third party, but remains the administrative agent and paying agent for the note purchasers. Pursuant to the note purchase and security agreements, Delaware Life advanced $63.0 million through December 31, 2016 to the trusts that purchased the Company's automotive finance receivables. Under this agreement through September 30, 2016 , the Company had sold $220.0 million of finance receivables, including approximately $72.4 million of finance receivables repurchased from DriveTime. The Company recognized gain on loan sales of approximately $2.4 million and $6.2 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 , respectively, which is included in other sales and revenues in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

As of September 30, 2017 , there was approximately $112.4 million and $177.1 million of unused capacity under the Purchase and Sale Agreement and the Master Transfer Agreement, respectively.

In December 2016, the Company incurred approximately $0.9 million of costs directly attributable to establishing the Purchase and Sale Agreement and the Master Transfer Agreement. These costs are included as a component of other assets on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and are expensed as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses over the period the Company sells finance receivables under these agreements.

The total gain on loan sales related to finance receivables sold to third parties under these agreements during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 was approximately $6.6 million and $15.0 million , which is included in other sales and revenues in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

NOTE 7 — DEBT INSTRUMENTS

Floor Plan Facility

The Company has a floor plan facility with a third party to finance its used vehicle inventory, which is secured by substantially all of its assets, other than the Company's interests in real property (the "Floor Plan Facility"). The Company most recently amended the Floor Plan Facility in August 2017 to, among other things, extend the maturity date to December 31, 2018 , and increase the available credit to $275.0 million through December 31, 2017 and to $350.0 million from January 1, 2018 through December 31, 2018 . The Company is required to make monthly interest payments at a rate per annum equal to one-month LIBOR plus 3.65% , effective August 1, 2017. The Floor Plan Facility requires that at least 5% of the total principal amount owed to the lender is held as restricted cash.

Repayment in an amount equal to the amount of the advance or loan must be made within five business days of selling or otherwise disposing of the underlying vehicle inventory. For sales involving financing originated by the Company and sold under either the Purchase and Sale Agreement or the Master Transfer Agreement as mentioned in Note 6 — Finance Receivable Sale Agreements , the lender has extended repayment to the earlier of  fifteen business days after the sale of the used vehicle or one day following the sale of the related finance receivable. Outstanding balances related to vehicles held in inventory for more than 180 days require monthly principal payments equal to 10% of the original principal amount of that vehicle until the remaining outstanding balance is the lesser of i) 50% of the original principal amount or ii) 50% of the wholesale value. Prepayments may be made without incurring a premium or penalty. Additionally, the Company is permitted to make prepayments to the lender to be held as principal payments under the Floor Plan Facility and subsequently re-borrow such amounts.

As of September 30, 2017 , the interest rate on the Floor Plan Facility was approximately 4.88% , the Company had an outstanding balance under this facility of approximately $195.1 million , borrowing capacity available of approximately $79.9 million and held approximately $9.8 million in restricted cash related to this facility. As of December 31, 2016 , the Company held approximately $8.4 million in restricted cash related to this facility.

Notes Payable

From time to time, the Company enters into promissory note agreements to finance equipment for its transportation fleet. The assets financed with the proceeds from these notes serve as the collateral for each note and certain security agreements related to these assets have cross collateralization and cross default provisions with respect to one another. Each note has a fixed annual interest rate, five -year term and requires monthly payments. As of September 30, 2017 , the outstanding principal of these notes had a weighted-average interest rate of 5.8% and totaled approximately $16.7 million , of which approximately $3.4 million is due within the next twelve months and is included as current portion of long-term debt in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Other Long-Term Debt

The Company has financed certain purchases of its property and equipment through a sale and leaseback transaction which is treated as a financing transaction in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. As of September 30, 2017 , the liability associated with this arrangement is approximately $3.0 million and is included in long-term debt in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

NOTE 8 — STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Organizational Transactions

Immediately prior to the IPO, Carvana Co. amended and restated its certificate of incorporation to, among other things authorize (i) 50.0 million shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, (ii) 500.0 million shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and (iii) 125.0 million shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share. Each share of Class A common stock generally entitles its holder to one vote on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. Each share of Class B common stock held by the Garcia Parties generally entitles its holder to ten votes on all matters to be voted on by stockholders, for so long as the Garcia Parties maintain direct or indirect beneficial ownership of at least 25% of the outstanding shares of Carvana Co.'s Class A common stock determined on an as-exchanged basis assuming that all of the Class A Units and Class B common stock were exchanged for Class A common stock. All other shares of Class B common stock generally entitle their holders to one vote per share on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. Holders of Class B common stock are not entitled to receive dividends and would not be entitled to receive any distributions upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding down of the Company. Holders of Class A and Class B common stock vote together as a single class on all matters presented to stockholders for their vote or approval, except as otherwise required by applicable law.

As described in Note 1 — Business Organization , Carvana Group amended and restated its LLC Agreement to, among other things, provide for two classes of common ownership interests in Carvana Group. Carvana Group’s two remaining classes of membership interests are Class A Units and Class B Units. Carvana Co. is required to, at all times, maintain (i) a four -to- five ratio between the number of shares of Class A common stock issued by Carvana Co. and the number of Class A Units owned by Carvana Co. (subject to certain exceptions for treasury shares and shares underlying certain convertible or exchangeable securities and subject to adjustment as set forth in the exchange agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") further discussed below, and taking into account Carvana Sub’s 0.1% ownership interest in Carvana, LLC) and (ii) a four -to- five ratio between the number of shares of Class B common stock owned by the Existing LLC Unitholders and the number of Class A Units owned by the Existing LLC Unitholders. The Company may issue shares of Class B common stock only to the extent necessary to maintain these ratios. Shares of Class B common stock are transferable only together with an equal number of LLC Units if Carvana Co., at the election of an Existing LLC Unitholder, exchanges LLC Units for shares of Class A common stock.

As part of the Organizational Transactions, Carvana Co. issued approximately 117.2 million shares of Class B common stock to holders of Class A Units on a four -to- five basis with the number of Class A Units they owned.

As of September 30, 2017 , there were approximately 165.8 million and 5.6 million Class A Units and Class B Units (as adjusted for the participation thresholds), respectively, issued and outstanding. As discussed in Note 10 — Equity-Based Compensation , Class B Units are issued under the Company’s Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”) and are subject to a participation threshold and are earned over the requisite service period.

Initial Public Offering

As described in Note 1 — Business Organization , on May 3, 2017, Carvana Co. completed its IPO of 15.0 million shares of Class A common stock at a public offering price of $15.00 per share. Carvana Co. received approximately $205.9 million in proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses. Carvana Co. used the proceeds to purchase approximately 18.8 million newly-issued membership interests of Carvana Group at a price per unit equal to 0.8 times the initial public offering price less underwriting discounts and commissions. In connection with the IPO, Carvana Co. transferred approximately 0.2 million Class A Units to Ernest Garcia, II in exchange for his 0.1% ownership interest in Carvana, LLC, a majority-owned subsidiary of Carvana Group. After the transfer Carvana Co. owned approximately 18.6 million Class A Units.

The Company incurred approximately $4.7 million of legal, accounting, printing and other professional fees directly related to the IPO, including $1.3 million incurred during 2016, of which $0.4 million were paid during 2016. Upon completion of the IPO, the total costs incurred for the IPO were charged against additional paid-in capital.

Exchange Agreement

Carvana Co. and the Existing LLC Unitholders entered into an Exchange Agreement under which each Existing LLC Unitholder (and certain permitted transferees thereof) may exchange their LLC Units for shares of the Company's Class A common stock on a four -to- five conversion ratio, or cash at the option of the Company, subject to conversion ratio adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications and similar transactions and subject to vesting and the respective participation threshold for Class B Units. To the extent such owners also hold Class B common stock, they will be required to deliver to Carvana Co. a number of shares of Class B common stock equal to the number of shares of Class A common stock being exchanged for. Any shares of Class B common stock so delivered will be canceled. The number of exchangeable Class B Units is determined based on the value of Carvana Co.'s Class A common stock and the applicable participation threshold.

Class C Redeemable Preferred Units

On July 27, 2015, the Company authorized the issuance of and sold approximately 14.1 million Class C Redeemable Preferred Units to CVAN Holdings, LLC, for approximately $65.0 million . On April 27, 2016 , the Company authorized the issuance of and sold approximately 18.3 million Class C Redeemable Preferred Units for approximately $100.0 million to Mr. Garcia. On July 12, 2016 , the Company authorized the issuance of and sold approximately 8.6 million Class C Redeemable Preferred Units to CVAN Holdings, LLC, and approximately 1.7 million Class C Redeemable Preferred Units to GV Auto I, LLC for approximately $50.0 million and $9.7 million , respectively. On December 9, 2016, the Company authorized the issuance of and sold approximately 0.5 million Class C Redeemable Preferred Units to the Fidel Family Trust for approximately $2.7 million . The Company recorded the issuance and sale of Class C Redeemable Preferred Units at fair value, net of issuance costs.

In accordance with the Company’s Operating Agreement, the Class C Redeemable Preferred Units accrued a return (the “Class C Return”) at a coupon rate of 12.5% compounding annually on the aggregate amount of capital contributions made with respect to the Class C Redeemable Preferred Units.

On May 3, 2017 , the Company closed its IPO at a price such that the Company is no longer liable for the accrued Class C Return, and the outstanding Class C Redeemable Preferred Units converted to Class A Units on a one -to-one basis. As of September 30, 2017 , all Class C Redeemable Preferred Units had converted to Class A Units and the related balance became a component of permanent equity on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

NOTE 9 — NON-CONTROLLING INTERESTS

As discussed in Note 1 — Business Organization , Carvana Co. consolidates the financial results of Carvana Group and reports a non-controlling interest related to the portion of Carvana Group owned by the Existing LLC Unitholders. Changes in the ownership interest in Carvana Group while Carvana Co. retains its controlling interest will be accounted for as equity transactions.

Future direct exchanges of LLC Units will result in a change in ownership and reduce the amount recorded as non-controlling interests and increase additional paid-in capital.

Upon the exercise of options issued by Carvana Co., or the issuance of other types of equity compensation by Carvana Co. such as the issuance of restricted or non-restricted stock, payment of bonuses in stock or settlement of stock appreciation rights in stock, Carvana Group is required to issue to Carvana Co. a number of Class A Units equal to 1.25 times the number of shares of Class A common stock being issued in connection with the exercise of such options or issuance of other types of equity compensation, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications and similar transactions. Activity related to the Company's equity compensation plans may result in a change in ownership which will impact the amount recorded as non-controlling interest and additional paid-in capital.

The non-controlling interest related to the Class B Units is determined based on the respective participation thresholds and the share price of Class A common stock on an as-converted basis. To the extent that the number of as-converted Class B Units change or Class B Units are forfeited, the resulting difference in ownership will be accounted for as equity transactions adjusting the non-controlling interest and additional paid-in capital.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 , the total adjustments related to equity compensation issued by Carvana Co., changes in the number of as-converted Class B Units and forfeitures of Class B Units was an increase in non-controlling interests and a corresponding decrease in additional paid-in capital of approximately $0.5 million and a decrease in non-controlling interests and a corresponding increase in additional paid-in capital of approximately $0.3 million , respectively, which has been included in adjustments to the non-controlling interests in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statement of stockholders' equity.

As of September 30, 2017 , Carvana Co. owned approximately 11% of Carvana Group with the Existing LLC Unitholders owning the remaining 89% . The non-controlling interests on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations represents the portion of the loss attributable to the economic interest in Carvana Group held by the non-controlling Existing LLC Unitholders calculated based on the weighted average non-controlling interests' ownership during the periods presented.

2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan

In connection with the IPO, the Company adopted the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "2017 Incentive Plan"). Under the 2017 Incentive Plan 14.0 million shares of Class A common stock are available for issuance, which the Company may grant as stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, and other stock-based awards to employees, directors, officers and consultants. As of September 30, 2017 , approximately 12.9 million shares remain available for future equity award grants.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 , the Company issued certain employees and consultants an aggregate of approximately 0.0 million and 0.6 million restricted shares of Class A common stock, respectively, pursuant to the terms of the 2017 Incentive Plan with a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $16.95 . During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 , the Company also awarded options to purchase an aggregate of approximately 0.1 million and 0.6 million shares of Class A common stock, respectively, to employees, consultants and directors, with a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $8.64 and $8.35 , respectively. The Company determined the grant-date fair value of the options using the Black-Scholes valuation model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

Class B Units

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , the Company issued an aggregate of approximately 0.8 million Class B Units to executive officers and certain other employees with a participation threshold of $12.00 and a grant-date fair value of $7.04 . There were no Class B Units issued during the three months ended September 30, 2017 . During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company issued approximately 0.4 million and 0.9 million Class B Units, respectively. The Class B Units issued during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 have per unit participation thresholds of $4.8780 to $5.8114 and a grant-date fair value of $0.22 to $0.44 .

Company Performance Plan

The Company created the Performance Plan on July 25, 2016, whereby the Company was authorized to grant up to 1.0 million performance units (the “Performance Units”) to certain employees and consultants. The Performance Units granted were subject to continued employment and were only exercisable upon a qualifying transaction, which included an initial public offering, as defined in the Performance Plan. The IPO completed on May 3, 2017 constituted a qualifying transaction under the terms of the Performance Plan. The Company chose to settle the outstanding Performance Units in equity awards of Carvana Co. and recognized compensation expense related to the vested portion of these equity awards upon completion of the IPO.

As of September 30, 2017 , the total unrecognized compensation expense related to outstanding equity awards was approximately $18.3 million , which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted-average period of approximately 3.5 years . Total unrecognized equity-based compensation expense will be adjusted for actual forfeitures.

NOTE 11 — LOSS PER SHARE

Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to Class A common stockholders by the weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by giving effect to all potentially dilutive shares. For all periods presented, potentially dilutive shares are excluded from diluted net loss per share because they have an anti-dilutive impact. Therefore, basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to Class A common stockholders are the same for all periods presented.

As discussed in Note 1 — Business Organization , the Organizational Transactions are considered transactions between entities under common control and the financial statements for periods prior to the IPO and Organizational Transactions have been adjusted to combine the previously separate entities for presentation purposes. For purposes of calculating both the numerator and denominator of net loss per share for periods prior to the IPO, the Company has retroactively reflected the 15.0 million shares issued in the IPO and the LLC Units outstanding as of the Organizational Transactions as if they had been issued and outstanding as of the beginning of each period presented. These calculations for periods prior to the IPO do not consider the options or shares of Class A common stock issued on the IPO date under the 2017 Incentive Plan.

Shares of Class B common stock do not share in the losses of the Company and are therefore not participating securities. As such, separate presentation of basic and diluted net loss per share of Class B common stock under the two -class method has not been presented. LLC Units (adjusted for the Exchange Ratio and participation thresholds) are considered potentially dilutive shares of Class A common stock because they are exchangeable into shares of Class A common stock.

Weighted-average as-converted Class A Units of approximately 117.2 million together with the related Class B common stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016 were evaluated under the if-converted method for potentially dilutive effects and were determined to be anti-dilutive. Outstanding Class B Units of approximately 7.5 million and 6.5 million at September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016 , respectively, were evaluated for potentially dilutive effects and were determined to be anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive restricted stock awards of approximately 0.5 million and 0.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 , respectively, were evaluated under the treasury stock method for potentially dilutive effects and were determined to be anti-dilutive. As of September 30, 2017 , 0.6 million options were outstanding and evaluated under the treasury stock method for potentially dilutive effects and were determined to be anti-dilutive.

NOTE 12 — INCOME TAXES

As a result of the IPO and Organizational Transactions, Carvana Co. owns a portion of the LLC Units of Carvana Group, which is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal and most applicable state and local income tax purposes. As a partnership, Carvana Group is not subject to U.S. federal and certain state and local income taxes. Any taxable income or loss generated by Carvana Group is passed through to and included in the taxable income or loss of its members, including Carvana Co., in accordance with the terms of the LLC Agreement. Carvana Co. is subject to U.S. federal income taxes, in addition to state and local income taxes with respect to the allocable share of any taxable income of Carvana Group.

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent it believes these assets are more-likely-than-not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent results of operations. Based on Carvana Co.'s limited operating history and future projections of taxable income, it believes there is significant uncertainty as to whether its deferred tax assets will be realized; therefore, Carvana Co. has recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. Additionally, Carvana Co. did not take benefit for its portion of taxable losses incurred by Carvana Group during the three and nine months ending September 30, 2017 subsequent to the IPO and Organizational Transactions.

The Company recognizes uncertain income tax positions when it is more-likely-than-not the position will be sustained upon examination. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the Company has not identified any uncertain tax positions and has not recognized any related reserves.

Tax Receivable Agreement

Carvana Co. expects to obtain an increase in its share of the tax basis in the net assets of Carvana Group when LLC Units are exchanged by the Existing LLC Unitholders and other qualifying transactions. As described in Note 8 — Stockholders' Equity , each change in outstanding shares of Class A common stock results in a corresponding increase or decrease in Carvana Co.'s ownership of LLC Units. The Company intends to treat any exchanges of LLC Units as direct purchases of LLC interests for U.S. federal income tax purposes. These increases in tax basis may reduce the amounts that Carvana Co. would otherwise pay in the future to various taxing authorities. They may also decrease gains (or increase losses) on future dispositions of certain capital assets to the extent tax basis is allocated to those capital assets.

In connection with the IPO, the Company entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA”). Under the TRA, the Company generally will be required to pay to the Existing LLC Unitholders 85% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state or local tax that the Company actually realizes directly or indirectly (or are deemed to realize in certain circumstances) as a result of (i) certain tax attributes created as a result of any sales or exchanges (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) to or with the Company of their interests in Carvana Group for shares of Carvana Co.'s Class A common stock or cash, including any basis adjustment relating to the assets of Carvana Group and (ii) tax benefits attributable to payments made under the TRA (including imputed interest). The Company expects to benefit from the remaining 15% of any tax benefits that it may actually realize. To the extent that the Company is unable to timely make payments under the TRA for any reason, such payments generally will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid.

If the Internal Revenue Service or a state or local taxing authority challenges the tax basis adjustments that give rise to payments under the TRA and the tax basis adjustments are subsequently disallowed, the recipients of payments under the agreement will not reimburse the Company for any payments the Company previously made to them. Any such disallowance would be taken into account in determining future payments under the TRA and would, therefore, reduce the amount of any such future payments. Nevertheless, if the claimed tax benefits from the tax basis adjustments are disallowed, the Company’s payments under the TRA could exceed its actual tax savings, and the Company may not be able to recoup payments under the TRA that were calculated on the assumption that the disallowed tax savings were available.

The TRA provides that if (i) certain mergers, asset sales, other forms of business combinations, or other changes of control were to occur, (ii) there is a material breach of any material obligations under the TRA; or (iii) it elects an early termination of the TRA, then the TRA will terminate and the Company's obligations, or the Company's successor’s obligations, under the TRA will accelerate and become due and payable, based on certain assumptions, including an assumption that the Company would have sufficient taxable income to fully utilize all potential future tax benefits that are subject to the TRA and that any LLC

Units that have not been exchanged are deemed exchanged for the fair market value of the Company's Class A common stock at the time of termination.
As of September 30, 2017 , there have been no exchanges of LLC Units and the Company has not recorded a liability related to the TRA.

NOTE 13 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Lease Commitments

As of September 30, 2017 , the Company is a tenant under various operating leases with third parties related to certain of its delivery hubs, vending machines and offices. The initial terms expire at various dates between 2017 and 2037. Many of the leases include one or more renewal options ranging from three to thirty years. Rent expense for these operating leases was approximately $1.1 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and approximately $2.9 million and $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively.

In September 2016, the Company entered into a lease with a third party for the second floor of a new corporate headquarters in Tempe, Arizona. The lease has an initial term of 83 months and has three five -year extension options. At the request of the landlord, DriveTime agreed to partially guarantee the lease payments until September 2019 . The Company started incurring rent expense for this lease in April 2017, and it is included within the third party rent expense discussed above.
 
The Company also has lease agreements with DriveTime that provide the Company access to and utilization of space at various DriveTime inspection and reconditioning centers, temporary storage locations and retail facilities. Additionally, the Company entered into a sublease with DriveTime for the use of the first floor of its new corporate headquarters in Tempe, Arizona. See Note 5 — Related Party Transactions for further related party lease information.

Letters of Credit

In October 2016, the Company obtained an unconditional, irrevocable, stand-by letter of credit for $1.9 million to satisfy a condition of a new lease agreement. The Company is required to maintain a cash deposit of $1.9 million with the financial institution that issued the stand-by letter of credit until February 2018, at which point the cash deposit requirement will be reduced by approximately $1.0 million until November 30, 2018, at which time the letter of credit shall expire. The Company has earned interest on this letter of credit, and as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the balance with the financial institution was approximately $2.0 million . This balance is classified as restricted cash in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Legal Matters

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may become subject to litigation or claims. The Company is not aware of any pending legal proceedings of which the outcome is reasonably possible to have a material effect on its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

(1) Classified in cash and cash equivalents in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
(2) Classified as other assets in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet and as a component of other sales and revenues in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The fair value of the purchase price adjustment receivable is determined based on the extent to which the Company’s estimated performance of the underlying finance receivables exceeds the purchaser’s estimated performance of the underlying finance receivables as of measurement dates specified in the Master Purchase and Sale Agreement. The Company develops its estimate of future cumulative losses based on the historical performance of finance receivables it originated with similar characteristics as well as general macro-economic trends. The Company then utilizes a discounted cash flow model to calculate the present value of the expected future payment amounts. Such fair value measurement is considered Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy.

The carrying amounts of restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and accounts payable to related party approximate fair value because their respective maturities are less than three months. The carrying value of the Floor Plan Facility was determined to approximate fair value due to its short-term duration and variable interest rate that approximates prevailing interest rates as of each reporting period. The carrying value of notes payable was determined to approximate fair value as each of the notes has prevailing interest rates, which have not materially changed as of September 30, 2017 . The fair value of finance receivables, net was determined to be approximately $39.1 million and $25.6 million as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively, utilizing the estimated sales price based on the historical experience of the Company. Such fair value measurement of the finance receivables, net is considered Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this report to "Carvana," the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Carvana Group, LLC and its consolidated subsidiaries prior to the initial public offering described in this report and to Carvana Co. and its consolidated subsidiaries following the Organizational Transactions and the initial public offering. The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our audited consolidated financial statements, the accompanying notes and the MD&A included in our prospectus filed with the SEC on April 28, 2017 , as well as our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Overview

Carvana is a leading eCommerce platform for buying used cars. We are transforming the used car buying experience by giving consumers what they want — a wide selection, great value and quality, transparent pricing and a simple, no pressure transaction. Each element of our business, from inventory procurement to fulfillment and overall ease of the online transaction, has been built for this singular purpose.

On May 3, 2017 , we completed our IPO of 15.0 million shares of Class A common stock at a public offering price of $15.00 per share. We received $205.9 million in proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses. We used a portion of the net proceeds to repay the $35.0 million of outstanding borrowings plus accrued interest under the Verde Credit Facility, and will use the remainder for general working corporate purposes. We expect these general corporate purposes to include funding working capital, operating expenses and the selective pursuit of business development opportunities, including to expand our current business through acquisitions of, or investments in, other businesses, products or technologies.

Since the launch of our first market in January 2013 through September 30, 2017 , we have purchased, reconditioned, sold and delivered approximately 58,300 vehicles to customers through our website, generating $1.1 billion in revenue.

Our business combines a comprehensive online sales experience with a vertically-integrated supply chain that allows us to sell high quality vehicles to our customers transparently and efficiently at a low price. Using our website, customers can complete all phases of a used vehicle purchase transaction. Specifically, our online sales experience allows customers to:

Purchase a used vehicle.     As of September 30, 2017 , we listed approximately 6,700 vehicles for sale on our website, where customers can select and purchase a vehicle, including arranging financing and signing contracts, directly from their desktop or mobile device. Selling used vehicles to retail customers is the primary driver of our business. Selling used vehicles generates revenue equal to the selling price of the vehicle, less an allowance for returns, and also enables multiple additional revenue streams, including vehicle service contracts (“VSCs”), GAP waiver coverage, and trade-ins.

Finance their purchase.     Customers can pay for their Carvana vehicle using cash, our proprietary loan origination platform or financing from third parties such as banks or credit unions. Customers who choose to apply for our in-house financing fill out a short application form, select from a range of financing terms we provide, and, if approved, apply the financing to their purchase in our online checkout process. We generally seek to sell the automotive finance receivables we originate to third party financing partners and earn a premium on each sale.

Protect their purchase.     Customers have the option to protect their vehicle with a CarvanaCare-branded VSC as part of our online checkout process. VSCs provide customers with insurance against certain mechanical repairs after the expiration of their vehicle’s original manufacturer warranty. We earn a fee for selling VSCs on behalf of an affiliate of DriveTime and, prior to December 2016, third parties, who are the obligors under these VSCs. We generally have no contractual liability to customers for claims under these agreements. We also recently began offering GAP waiver coverage to customers in most states. This product contractually obligates us to cancel the remaining principal outstanding after insurance proceeds in a total loss event.

Sell us their car.     We allow our customers to trade-in a vehicle and apply the trade-in value to their purchase, or to sell us a vehicle independent of a purchase. Using our digital appraisal tool, customers can complete a short appraisal

26


form and receive an offer for their trade-in nearly instantaneously. We generate trade-in offers using a proprietary valuation algorithm supported by extensive used vehicle market and customer behavior data. When customers accept our offer, we take their vehicles into inventory and sell them either at auction as a wholesale sale or through our website as a retail sale. Vehicles sold at auction typically do not meet the quality or condition standards required to be included in retail inventory displayed for sale on our website.

To enable a seamless customer experience, we have built a vertically-integrated used vehicle supply chain, supported by proprietary software systems and data.

Vehicle sourcing and acquisition.     We acquire the majority of our used vehicle inventory from wholesale auctions. We also, to a lesser extent, acquire vehicles from consumers and directly from used vehicle suppliers, including franchise and independent dealers, leasing companies, and car rental companies. Using proprietary machine learning algorithms and data from a variety of internal and external sources, we evaluate tens of thousands of vehicles daily to determine their fit with consumer demand, internal profitability targets, and our existing inventory mix.

Inspection and reconditioning.     After acquiring a vehicle, we transport it to one of our inspection and reconditioning centers (“IRCs”), where it undergoes a 150-point inspection and is reconditioned to meet “Carvana Certified” standards. This process is supported by a custom used vehicle inventory management system, which tracks vehicles through each stage of the process and is seamlessly integrated with auto parts suppliers to facilitate the procurement of required parts.

Photography and merchandising.     We photograph vehicles using our proprietary photo booths located at each of our IRCs. This allows us to display interactive, 360-degree images of each vehicle on our website. We also annotate each vehicle image with a list of features and imperfections to assist our customers in their evaluation of each vehicle for purchase. Our 360-degree photo and annotation processes are enabled by proprietary imaging technology and integrations with various vehicle data providers for vehicle feature and option information.

Logistics and fulfillment.     We transport vehicles purchased by our customers to their local market for home delivery or pick-up. In markets where we have launched operations, delivery to the customer is completed by a Carvana employee in a branded delivery truck. In a subset of these markets, customers have the option of picking up their car at one of our vending machines. These vending machines are multi-story glass towers where our customers deposit a token into a coin slot and an automated platform delivers the purchased vehicle to a garage bay where the customer is waiting. Our vending machines provide an attractive and unique customer pick-up experience, developing brand awareness while lowering our variable vehicle delivery expense. Our logistics and fulfillment operations are supported by our proprietary vehicle transportation management system, which optimizes the scheduling of transport routes and delivery slots.

Unit Sales

Since launching to customers in Atlanta, Georgia in January 2013, we have experienced rapid growth in sales through our website. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , the number of vehicles we sold to retail customers grew by 133.5% to 30,735 , compared to 13,161 in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 .

We view the number of vehicles we sell to retail customers as the most important measure of our growth, and we expect to continue to focus on building a scalable platform to increase our retail units sold. This focus on retail units sold is motivated by several factors:

Retail units sold enable multiple revenue streams, including the sale of the vehicle itself, the sale of automotive finance receivables originated to finance the vehicle, the sale of VSCs, the sale of GAP waiver coverage, and the sale of vehicles acquired from customers as trade-ins.

Retail units sold are the primary driver of customer referrals and repeat sales. Each time we sell a vehicle to a new customer, that customer becomes a candidate to refer future customers and can become a repeat buyer in the future.

Retail units sold is an important driver of the average number of days between vehicle acquisition by us and the sale to a customer. Reducing average days to sale impacts gross profit on our vehicles because used cars depreciate over time.

27



Retail unit sales allow us to benefit from economies of scale due to our centralized online sales model. We believe our model provides meaningful operating leverage in acquisition, reconditioning, transport, customer service and delivery.

We plan to invest in technology and infrastructure to support growth in unit sales. This includes continued investment in our acquisition, reconditioning, and logistics network, as well as continued investment in product development and engineering to deliver customers a best-in-class experience.

Markets

Our growth in retail units sold is driven by expansion into new markets and increased penetration in our existing markets. We define a market as a metropolitan area in which we have commenced local advertising and offer free home delivery to customers with a Carvana employee and branded delivery truck. Opening a new market involves hiring a market operations manager and a team of customer advocates, connecting the market to our existing logistics network, and initiating local advertising. Each new market has typically required approximately $0.5 million in capital expenditures, primarily related to the acquisition of 1 to 2 branded delivery trucks, a multi-car hauler to connect the market to our logistics network, and furniture, fixtures and equipment in a local office space. As a market scales, we may elect to build a vending machine in the market to improve fulfillment and further increase customer awareness. Each new vending machine has required on average $5.0 million of capital expenditures, depending on the number of stories in the vending machine tower and local market conditions.

Our capital- and headcount-light expansion model has enabled us to increase our rate of market openings in each of the past four years. After opening Atlanta, Georgia in 2013, we opened two markets in 2014, six in 2015, twelve in 2016, and 18 in the first three quarters of 2017, bringing our total number of markets to 39 as of September 30, 2017 . Over this period, we have continually improved our market expansion playbook, which we believe provides us with the capability to accelerate this rate of market openings in the future.

When we open a market, we commence advertising using a blend of brand and direct advertising channels. Our advertising spend in each market is approximately proportionate to each market’s population, subject to adjustments based on specific characteristics of the market, used vehicle market seasonality and special events such as vending machine openings. This historically has led to increased market penetration over time following the market opening. Beginning in the second quarter of 2017, we increased national television advertising spend. ​With our growth into new markets, national television advertising is becoming more economically efficient compared to purchasing several local television advertising campaigns.

Revenue and Gross Profit

Our expansion into new markets and increased penetration in existing ones has led to growth in retail unit sales. We generate revenue on retail units sold from four primary sources: the sale of the vehicle, gains on the sales of loans originated to finance the vehicle, wholesale sales of vehicles we acquire from customers as trade-ins, and sales of ancillary products such as VSCs and GAP waiver coverage.

Our largest source of revenue, used vehicle sales, totaled $208.1 million and $550.4 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 , respectively. As we continue to expand to new markets and increase penetration in existing ones, we expect used vehicle sales to increase as we increase retail units sold. We generate gross profit on used vehicle sales from the difference between the retail selling price of the vehicle and our cost of sales associated with acquiring the vehicle and preparing it for sale.

Wholesale sales includes sales of trade-ins and other vehicles acquired from customers as well as sales of certain retail units listed on our website and totaled $7.5 million and $21.0 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 , respectively. We expect wholesale sales to increase with retail units sold and as we expand our suite of product offerings to customers who may wish to trade-in or to sell us a car independent of a retail sale. We generate gross profit on wholesale vehicle sales from the difference between the wholesale selling price of the vehicle and our cost of sales associated with acquiring the vehicle and preparing it for sale.

Other sales and revenues, which includes gains on the sales of loans we originate, sales commissions on VSCs, and GAP waiver coverage totaled $9.8 million and $22.4 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 , respectively. We expect other sales and revenues to increase with retail units sold and as we improve our ability to offer

28


attractive financing solutions and ancillary products to our customers. Other sales and revenues are 100% gross margin products for which gross profit equals revenue.

During our growth phase, our highest priority will continue to be generating demand and building an infrastructure to support growth in retail units sold. Secondarily, we plan to pursue several strategies designed to increase our total gross profit per unit. These strategies include the following:

Reduce average days to sale.    Our goal is to increase both our number of markets and our sales growth at a faster rate than we increase our inventory size, which we believe would decrease average days to sale due to a relative increase in demand versus supply. Reductions in average days to sale lead to fewer vehicle price reductions, and therefore higher average selling prices, other things being equal. Higher average selling prices in turn lead to higher gross profit per unit sold, all other factors being equal.

Leverage existing IRC infrastructure.  As we scale, we intend to more fully utilize the capacity in our existing IRCs, which collectively have capacity to inspect and recondition approximately 200,000 vehicles per year.

Increase utilization on logistics network. As we scale, we intend to more fully utilize our in-house logistics network to transport cars to our IRCs after acquisition from wholesale auctions or customers.

Increase conversion on existing products.     We plan to continue to improve our website to highlight the benefits of our complementary product offerings, including financing, VSCs, GAP waiver coverage and trade-ins.

Add new products and services.     We plan to utilize our online sales platform to offer additional complementary products and services to our customers.

Optimize pricing. We regularly test different pricing of our products, including vehicle sticker prices, trade-in offers and ancillary product prices and believe we can improve by further optimizing prices over time.

Seasonality

Used vehicle sales exhibit seasonality with sales peaking late in the first calendar quarter and diminishing through the rest of the year, with the lowest relative level of vehicle sales expected to occur in the fourth calendar quarter. Due to our rapid growth, our overall sales patterns to date have not reflected the general seasonality of the used vehicle industry, but we expect this to change once our business and markets mature. Used vehicle prices also exhibit seasonality, with used vehicles depreciating at a faster rate in the last two quarters of each year and a slower rate in the first two quarters of each year. Historically, this has led our gross profit per unit to be higher on average in the first half of the year than in the second half of the year. We may experience seasonal and other fluctuations in our quarterly operating results, which may not fully reflect the underlying performance of our business.

Relationship with DriveTime

We were founded as a subsidiary of DriveTime in 2012 and subsequently spun out of DriveTime as a standalone entity in November 2014. DriveTime consolidated our financial results in its financial statements through July 2015. DriveTime is controlled by our controlling shareholder, who is also the father of Ernie Garcia, III, our Chief Executive Officer.

For further discussion about our relationship with DriveTime and other related parties, refer to Note 5 — Related Party Transactions included in Part I, Item 1, Unaudited Condensed and Consolidated Financial Statements, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Key Operating Metrics

We regularly review a number of metrics, including the following key metrics, to evaluate our business, measure our progress, and make strategic decisions. Our key operating metrics reflect the key drivers of our growth, including opening new markets, increasing brand awareness and enhancing the selection of vehicles we make available to our customers. Our key operating metrics also demonstrate our ability to translate these drivers into retail sales and to monetize these retail sales through a variety of product offerings.

Retail Units Sold

We define retail units sold as the number of vehicles sold to customers in a given period, net of returns under our seven-day return policy. We view retail units sold as a key measure of our growth for several reasons. First, retail units sold is the primary driver of our revenues and, indirectly, gross profit, since retail unit sales enable multiple complementary revenue streams, including financing, VSCs, GAP waiver coverage and trade-ins. Second, growth in retail units sold increases the base of available customers for referrals and repeat sales. Third, growth in retail units sold is an indicator of our ability to successfully scale our logistics, fulfillment, and customer service operations.

Number of Markets

We define a market as a metropolitan area in which we have commenced local advertising and offer free home delivery to customers with a Carvana employee and branded delivery truck. We view the number of markets we serve as a key driver of our growth. As we increase our number of markets, the population of consumers who have access to our fully-integrated customer experience increases, which in turn helps to increase the number of vehicles we sell.

Average Monthly Unique Visitors

We define a monthly unique visitor as an individual who has visited our website within a calendar month, based on data provided by Google Analytics. We calculate average monthly unique visitors as the sum of monthly unique visitors in a given period, divided by the number of months in that period. We view average monthly unique visitors as a key indicator of the strength of our brand, the effectiveness of our advertising and merchandising campaigns and consumer awareness.
 
Inventory Units Available

We define inventory units available as the number of vehicles listed for sale on our website on the last day of a given reporting period. Until we reach an optimal pooled inventory level, we view inventory units available as a key measure of our growth. Growth in inventory units available increases the selection of vehicles available to consumers in all of our markets simultaneously, which we believe will allow us to increase the number of vehicles we sell. Moreover, growth in inventory units available is an indicator of our ability to scale our vehicle purchasing, inspection and reconditioning operations.


30


Average Days to Sale

We define average days to sale as the average number of days between vehicle acquisition by us and delivery to a customer for all retail units sold in a period. However, this metric does not include any retail units that remain unsold at period end. We view average days to sale as a useful metric due to its impact on used vehicle average selling price.

Total Gross Profit per Unit

We define total gross profit per unit as the aggregate gross profit in a given period divided by retail units sold in that period. Total gross profit per unit is driven by sales of used vehicles, each of which generates additional revenue sources including: wholesale sales of vehicles we acquire from customers as trade-ins, gains on the sales of loans originated to finance the vehicle, revenue from GAP waiver coverage and commissions on sales of VSCs. We believe total gross profit per unit is a key measure of our growth and long-term profitability.

Components of Results of Operations

Used Vehicle Sales

Used vehicle sales represent the aggregate sales of used vehicles to customers through our website. Revenue from used vehicles sales is recognized upon delivery or pick-up of the vehicle by the customer and reported net of a reserve for expected returns. Factors affecting used vehicle sales revenue include the number of retail units sold and the average selling price of these vehicles. At our current stage of growth, changes in retail units sold are a much larger driver of changes in revenue than are changes in average selling price.

The number of used vehicles we sell depends on the number of markets we serve, our volume of website traffic in these markets, our inventory selection, the effectiveness of our branding and marketing efforts, the quality of our customer sales experience, our volume of referrals and repeat customers, the competitiveness of our pricing, competition from other used car dealerships, and general economic conditions. On a quarterly basis, the number of used vehicles we sell is also affected by seasonality, with demand for used vehicles reaching a seasonal high point in the first half of each year, commensurate with the timing of tax refunds, and diminishing through the rest of the year, with the lowest relative level of used vehicle sales expected to occur in the fourth calendar quarter.

Our retail average selling price depends on the mix of vehicles we acquire and hold in inventory, retail market prices in our markets, our average days to sale, and our pricing strategy. We may opportunistically choose to shift our inventory mix to higher or lower cost vehicles, or to opportunistically raise or lower our prices relative to market to take advantage of supply or demand imbalances, which could temporarily lead to average selling prices increasing or decreasing. We anticipate that our average days to sale will decline over time as we continue to launch new markets, which we believe will have a positive impact on our retail average selling price, other things being equal.

Wholesale Vehicle Sales

Wholesale vehicle sales is equal to the aggregate proceeds we receive on vehicles sold to wholesalers. The vehicles we sell to wholesalers are primarily acquired from our customers who trade-in their existing vehicles when making a purchase from us, and to a lesser extent, vehicles we acquire from customers who do not purchase another vehicle from us. In addition, we occasionally sell certain used vehicles previously listed for sale to customers through our website to wholesalers. Factors affecting wholesale vehicle sales include the number of wholesale units sold and the average wholesale selling price of these vehicles. The average selling price of our wholesale units is primarily driven by the mix of vehicles we sell to wholesalers, as well as general supply and demand conditions in the applicable wholesale vehicle market.


31


Other Sales and Revenues

We generate other sales and revenues primarily through the sales of automotive finance receivables we originate and sell to third parties and commissions we receive on VSCs. Prior to December 9, 2016, the VSCs were sold and administered by third parties. On December 9, 2016, we entered into a master dealer agreement with DriveTime, pursuant to which we sell VSCs that DriveTime administers. The commission revenues we recognize on VSCs depends on the number of retail units we sell, the conversion rate of VSCs on these sales, commission rates we receive, VSC early cancellation frequency, and product features.

We generally seek to sell the automotive finance receivables we generate under committed forward flow arrangements with third parties who acquire these receivables at premium prices without recourse to us for their post-sale performance. Factors affecting revenue from these sales include the number of automotive finance receivables we originate, the average principal balance of these receivables, the credit quality of the portfolio and the price at which we are able to sell them to third parties.

The number of receivables we originate is driven by the number of used vehicles sold and the percentage of our sales for which we provide financing, which is influenced by the financing terms we offer our customers relative to alternatives available to the customer. The average principal balance is driven primarily by the mix of vehicles we sell, since higher average selling prices typically mean higher average receivable balances. The price at which we resell these automotive finance receivables is driven by the terms of our forward flow arrangements and applicable interest rates.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales includes the cost to acquire vehicles and the reconditioning and transportation costs associated with preparing the vehicles for resale. Vehicle acquisition costs are driven by the mix of vehicles we acquire, the source of those vehicles, and supply and demand dynamics in the wholesale vehicle market. Reconditioning costs consist of direct costs, including parts, labor and third party repair expenses directly attributable to specific vehicles, as well as indirect costs, such as IRC overhead. Transportation costs consist of costs incurred to transport the vehicles from the point of acquisition to the IRC. Cost of sales also includes any necessary adjustments to reflect vehicle inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value.

Used Vehicle Gross Profit

Used vehicle gross profit equals the vehicle sales price minus our costs of sales associated with vehicles that we list and sell on our website. Used vehicle gross profit per unit equals our aggregate used vehicle gross profit in any measurement period divided by the number of retail units sold in such period.

Wholesale Vehicle Gross Profit

Wholesale vehicle gross profit equals the vehicle sales price minus our cost of sales associated with vehicles we sell to wholesalers. Factors affecting wholesale gross profit include the number of wholesale units sold, the average wholesale selling price of these vehicles, the acquisition price we offer to the customer and, in the case of vehicles formerly listed on our website, the total costs described above associated with that vehicle.

Other Gross Profit

Other sales and revenues consist of 100% gross margin products for which gross profit equals revenue. Therefore, changes in gross profit and the associated drivers are identical to changes in revenues from these products and the associated drivers.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses include expenses associated with advertising to customers, operating our logistics hubs, fulfillment centers and vending machines, operating our logistics and fulfillment network, and other corporate overhead expenses, including expenses associated with IT, product development, engineering, legal, accounting, finance and business development. We anticipate that these expenses will increase as we grow. SG&A expenses exclude the costs of inspecting and reconditioning vehicles, which are included in cost of sales.


32


Interest Expense

Interest expense includes interest incurred on our Floor Plan Facility, notes payable and other long-term debt, which are used to fund inventory, our transportation fleet and certain of our property and equipment, respectively. During 2017, interest expense also includes interest incurred and the commitment fee related to the Verde Credit Facility, which was used as needed to fund working capital prior to its termination in connection with our IPO.

Used Vehicle Sales

Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 Versus 2016. Used vehicle sales increased by $116.0 million to $208.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $92.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016 . The increase in revenue was primarily due to an increase in the number of used vehicles sold to 11,719 from 5,023 during the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2017, respectively. The increase in unit sales was driven in part by growth to 39 markets as of September 30, 2017 from 16 markets as of September 30, 2016 . The increase in units sold was also driven by growth in existing markets due to expanded inventory selection, enhanced marketing efforts, increased brand awareness, and customer referrals. We anticipate that unit sales will continue to grow as we launch new markets and increase penetration in existing markets. The average selling price of our retail units sold decreased to $17,759 in the three months ended September 30, 2017 from $18,339 in the same quarter in the prior year, primarily due to a shift in inventory mix.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 Versus 2016. Used vehicle sales increased by $309.3 million to $550.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $241.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 . The increase in revenue was primarily due to an increase in the number of used vehicles sold to 30,735 from 13,161 during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2017, respectively. The increase in unit sales was driven in part by growth to 39 markets as of September 30, 2017 from 16 markets as of September 30, 2016 . The increase in units sold was also driven by growth in existing markets due to expanded inventory selection, enhanced marketing efforts, increased brand awareness, and customer referrals. We anticipate that unit sales will continue to grow as we launch new markets and increase penetration in existing markets. The average selling price of our retail units sold decreased to $17,909 in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from $18,319 in the same year-to-date period in the prior year. We believe average selling prices declined primarily due to our shift in inventory mix and partially due to an increase in average days to sale to 99 days in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from 90 days in the comparable prior year period, leading to additional sticker price reductions and therefore lower average selling prices.

Wholesale Vehicle Sales

Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 Versus 2016. Wholesale vehicle sales increased by $4.6 million to $7.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2017 , compared to $2.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016 . We primarily obtain our wholesale inventory from customer trade-ins. As our retail unit sales have increased, so have the trade-ins we receive. Therefore, we have had more units available for sale to wholesalers over time and our revenues attributed to wholesale vehicle sales have increased.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 Versus 2016. Wholesale vehicle sales increased by $14.1 million to $21.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , compared to $6.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 . We primarily obtain our wholesale inventory from customer trade-ins. As our retail unit sales have increased, so have the trade-ins we receive. Therefore, we have had more units available for sale to wholesalers over time and our revenues attributed to wholesale vehicle sales have increased.

Other Sales and Revenues

Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 Versus 2016. Other sales and revenues primarily consist of gains on the sales of loans we originate, commissions we receive on sales of VSCs and sales of GAP waiver coverage. Other sales and revenues increased by $5.9 million to $9.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2017 , compared to $3.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016 . This increase was primarily driven by the increase in retail units sold which led to an increase in loans originated and sold, as well as an increase in VSC sales and GAP waiver coverage sales. During the three months ended September 30, 2016 , VSC revenues were generated from third party sales whereas during the three months ended September 30, 2017 , all VSC sales were administered through DriveTime.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 Versus 2016. Other sales and revenues increased by $12.1 million to $22.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , compared to $10.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 . This increase was primarily driven by the increase in retail units sold, which led to an increase in loans originated and sold, as well as an increase in VSC sales and GAP waiver coverage sales. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016 , VSC revenues were generated from third party sales whereas during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , all VSC sales were administered through DriveTime.

Used Vehicle Gross Profit

Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 Versus 2016. Used vehicle gross profit increased by $7.0 million to $9.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2017 , compared to $2.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016 . This increase was driven primarily by an increase in retail units sold, as well as an increase in used vehicle gross profit per unit to $841 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $567 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 . Despite higher average days to sale, as described above, vehicle gross profit per unit increased. The increase was driven by enhancements in our proprietary vehicle purchasing and pricing technology, as well as by cost efficiencies in the reconditioning of our vehicles.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 Versus 2016. Used vehicle gross profit increased by $16.4 million to $22.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , compared to $6.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 . This increase was driven primarily by an increase in retail units sold, as well as an increase in used vehicle gross profit per unit to $737 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $478 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 . The increase was driven by enhancements in our proprietary vehicle purchasing and pricing technology, as well as by cost efficiencies in the transportation and reconditioning of our vehicles.

Wholesale Vehicle Gross Profit

Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 Versus 2016. Wholesale vehicle gross profit increased by $0.7 million to $0.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2017 , compared to $0.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016 . This increase was driven primarily by an increase in wholesale units sold to 1,797 from 787 and an increase in gross profit per wholesale unit to $418 from $74 .

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 Versus 2016. Wholesale vehicle gross profit increased by $1.0 million to $1.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , compared to $0.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 . This increase was driven primarily by an increase in wholesale units sold to 4,665 from 1,920 and an increase in gross profit per wholesale unit to $251 from $79 .

Other Gross Profit

Other sales and revenues consist of 100% gross margin products for which gross profit equals revenue. Therefore, changes in other gross profit and the associated drivers are identical to changes in other sales and revenues and the associated drivers.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $30.7 million and $84.6 million to $58.7 million and $156.6 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 , respectively, compared to $28.0 million and $72.0 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 , respectively. The increase is partially due to an increase in compensation and benefits of $9.5 million and $30.1 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 , respectively, which was driven by expansion into new markets and growth in headcount at our Phoenix headquarters, including in our product and engineering, accounting, finance, legal, real estate, information technology, and human resources departments. These expenses will increase in absolute terms as we expand to additional markets and continue to grow as a public company. Advertising, market occupancy, logistics and other overhead expenses increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the prior comparable periods primarily due to an increase in number of markets.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased by $0.1 million and $3.2 million to $0.8 million and $5.4 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 , respectively, compared to $0.7 million and $2.2 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 , respectively. In order to expand the inventory we make available to customers and accommodate operations in additional markets, we increased our borrowings under our Floor Plan Facility year over year. The increase in interest expense is partially due to the increases in the outstanding balance. In addition, we incurred $1.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 related to the Verde Credit Facility, including interest expense incurred on the outstanding balance and financing costs. Total borrowings of $35.0 million under the Verde Credit Facility were repaid in full with the proceeds of our IPO and the facility was terminated.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we also present the following non-GAAP measures: EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share.

EBITDA and EBITDA Margin

EBITDA and EBITDA Margin are non-GAAP supplemental measures of operating performance that do not represent and should not be considered an alternative to net loss or cash flow from operations, as determined by GAAP. EBITDA is defined as net loss before interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization expense. EBITDA Margin is EBITDA as a percentage of total revenues. We use EBITDA to measure the operating performance of our business, excluding specifically identified items that we do not believe directly reflect our core operations and may not be indicative of our recurring operations. We use EBITDA Margin to measure our operating performance relative to our total revenues. EBITDA and EBITDA Margin may not be comparable to similarly titled measures provided by other companies due to potential differences in methods of calculations. A reconciliation of EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, and calculation of EBITDA Margin is as follows (in thousands):

Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted Net Loss per Share

Adjusted net loss represents net loss attributable to Carvana Co. assuming the full exchange of all outstanding LLC Units for shares of Class A common stock. Adjusted net loss per share is calculated by dividing adjusted net loss by the weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding assuming (i) the full exchange of all outstanding LLC Units and (ii) shares issued in our public offering were outstanding for the entire period presented.


37


Adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share are supplemental measures of operating performance that do not represent and should not be considered alternatives to net loss and net loss per share, as determined under GAAP. We believe that adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share supplement GAAP measures and enable us to more effectively evaluate our performance period-over-period and relative to our competitors. A reconciliation of adjusted net loss to net loss attributable to Carvana Co., the most directly comparable GAAP measure, and the computation of adjusted net loss per share are as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash generated from our operations and from financing activities. Cash generated from operating activities primarily includes cash derived from the sale of used retail vehicles, the sale of wholesale vehicles and proceeds from the sale of automotive finance receivables originated in connection with the sale of used vehicles. Cash generated from our financing activities primarily includes proceeds from the sale of Class A common stock in our IPO, sales of Class C Preferred Units throughout 2015 and 2016 and net proceeds from our floor plan facility.
 
We have incurred losses each year from inception through September 30, 2017 , and expect to incur additional losses in the future. Our ability to service our debt, fund working capital, capital expenditures and business development efforts will depend on our ability to generate cash from operating and financing activities, which is subject to our future operating performance, as well as to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other conditions, some of which may be beyond our control. We believe that our existing sources of liquidity including future debt and equity financing will be sufficient to fund our operations, including lease obligations, debt service requirements, capital expenditures and working capital obligations for at least the next 12 months. However, our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, our expansion into new markets, construction of vending machines and the timing and extent of our spending to support our technology and software development efforts. To the extent that existing cash and cash from operations are insufficient to fund our future activities, we may need to raise additional funds through public or private equity or debt financing. Additional funds may not be available on terms favorable to us or at all.


38


Floor Plan Facility

We have a floor plan facility with a third party to finance our used vehicle inventory, which is secured by substantially all of our assets, other than our interests in real property (the "Floor Plan Facility"). The line of credit available to us under this agreement is $275.0 million . Starting January 1, 2018, the line of credit will increase to $350.0 million . We are required to make monthly interest payments on borrowings under the Floor Plan Facility at a rate per annum equal to one-month LIBOR plus a fixed base. Repayment in an amount equal to the amount of the advance or loan must be made within five business days of selling or otherwise disposing of the underlying vehicle inventory. For sales involving financing originated by us and sold under either the Purchase and Sale Agreement or the Master Transfer Agreement, the lender has extended repayment to the earlier of  fifteen business days after the sale of the used vehicle or one day following the sale of the related finance receivable. We are also required to make principal reduction payments equal to 10% of the original principal amount for each vehicle subject to the floor plan for more than 180 days until the outstanding principal amount for such vehicle is reduced to the lesser of 50% of the original principal amount of such vehicle or 50% of such vehicle’s wholesale value. Additionally, we are permitted to make prepayments to the lender to be held as principal payments under the Floor Plan Facility and subsequently re-borrow such amounts. As of September 30, 2017 , $195.1 million borrowings were outstanding under the Floor Plan Facility, the interest rate was 4.88% and $79.9 million remained available for borrowing.

Verde Credit Facility

On February 27, 2017, we entered into a credit facility with Verde for an amount up to $50.0 million (the "Verde Credit Facility"). As of March 31, 2017, $20.0 million had been drawn under the Verde Credit Facility. From March 31, 2017 through the completion of the IPO, we drew an additional $15.0 million under the Verde Credit Facility, bringing the total outstanding balance to $35.0 million immediately prior to the IPO. Amounts outstanding accrued interest at a rate of 12.0% per annum, compounding semi-annually and payable in kind and matured in August 2018. Upon execution of the agreement, we paid a $1.0 million commitment fee. Upon completion of the IPO on May 3, 2017 , we repaid the entire outstanding principal and accrued interest using a portion of the proceeds we received from the IPO and recognized the unamortized commitment fee as interest expense. Subsequent to the IPO and this repayment, the agreement was terminated.

Other Long-Term Debt

Since 2016, we have periodically issued notes payable to finance haulers and equipment for use in our logistics operations. The assets purchased with the proceeds from these notes serve as the collateral for each note and certain security agreements related to these assets have cross collateralization and cross default provisions with respect to one another. Each note has a five-year term, fixed interest rate and requires monthly principal and interest payments. As of September 30, 2017 , the outstanding principal of these notes totaled $16.7 million and had a weighted-average interest rate of 5.8% .

Finance Receivables

Our customers can obtain vehicle financing directly on our website. Historically, we have entered into various arrangements to sell the finance receivables we originate to third parties and to a lesser extent related parties. Sales of receivables are a source of cash from operations and remove these loans from our balance sheet without recourse for their post-sale performance. In January 2016, we entered into transfer agreements pursuant to which we indirectly sell automotive finance receivables meeting certain underwriting criteria to third party purchasers. Under these transfer agreements and note purchase and security agreements, we could sell up to $230.0 million in principal balances of the finance receivables in this manner, which we reached in the fourth quarter of 2016 and as a result have no capacity under the note purchase and security agreements.

In December 2016, we entered into a master purchase and sale agreement with an unrelated third party pursuant to which we sell automotive finance receivables meeting certain underwriting criteria. Under such sale agreement, the third party has committed to purchase up to an aggregate of $375.0 million in principal balances of automotive finance receivables that we originate, subject to adjustment as described in the agreement. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , we sold $241.3 million in principal balances of automotive finance receivables under this agreement and there was $112.4 million of unused capacity under this agreement as of September 30, 2017 . On November 3, 2017 , we amended our Purchase and Sale Agreement to increase the aggregate amount of principal balances of finance receivables we can sell from $375.0 million to $1.5 billion .


39


In December 2016, we entered into a master transfer agreement with an unrelated third party pursuant to which we sell automotive finance receivables meeting certain underwriting criteria to such party. Under such sale agreement, the third party has committed to purchase up to an aggregate of $292.2 million in principal balances of automotive finance receivables that we originate. The third party purchaser finances a majority of these purchases with borrowings from our purchaser in the master purchase and sale agreement. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , we sold $106.6 million in principal balances of automotive finance receivables under this agreement and there was $177.1 million of unused capacity under this agreement as of September 30, 2017 . Also on November 3, 2017 , we terminated the remaining capacity under the Master Transfer Agreement and entered into a new master transfer agreement with an unrelated third party under which the third party has committed to purchase up to an aggregate of $357.1 million in principal balances of finance receivables.

Liquidity Upon Initial Public Offering

On May 3, 2017 , we completed an initial public offering and received $205.9 million in proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and offering costs. We used a portion of the proceeds to repay $35.0 million of outstanding borrowings plus accrued interest under the Verde Credit Facility and to pay expenses incurred in connection with the IPO and Organizational Transactions. We will use the remaining net proceeds for future working capital and general corporate purposes.

Operating Activities

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , net cash used in operating activities was $116.0 million , a decrease of $28.8 million compared to net cash used in operating activities of $144.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 . Significant changes impacting net cash used in operating activities comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 are as follows:

At December 31, 2015, our accounts payable to related party was $21.4 million, primarily related to vehicle inventory purchases. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016 we made net repayments of $22.8 million to related parties resulting in an ending prepayment to related parties of $1.4 million. Comparatively, as of September 30, 2017 , our balance of accounts payable to related parties increased by $0.3 million since December 31, 2016. Thus, cash flows associated with the change in our accounts payable to related parties increased $23.1 million year over year due to the timing of payments.

Net increase in vehicle inventory was $6.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to a net increase in vehicle inventory of $62.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 , resulting in a $56.4 million reduction in use of cash related to our efforts to optimize our inventory levels.

Net cash generated by originations and proceeds of finance receivables was $0.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , a decrease of $5.7 million from the net use of $5.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 . This is primarily due to the timing of originations and subsequent sales.


40


Our net loss was $117.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , an increase of $59.7 million from a net loss of $57.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 primarily due to an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses associated with expansion to additional markets and expanding our corporate infrastructure.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities was $60.9 million and $23.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, an increase of $37.6 million . The increase primarily relates to the increase in purchases of property and equipment of $38.4 million , reflecting the expansion of our business operations into new markets and construction of new vending machines.

Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities was $241.2 million and $205.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, an increase of $35.9 million . The net increase primarily relates to the following financing activities:

Net proceeds from sales of equity increased $46.6 million due to receipt of net proceeds from our IPO of $206.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to net proceeds of $159.7 million from sales of Class C Preferred Units during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 .

Proceeds from and payments on the Floor Plan Facility increased by $427.5 million and $443.8 million , respectively, resulting in a net decrease to sources of cash of $16.2 million related to this facility during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016 .

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , we entered into new leases with DriveTime and Verde, some of which replaced previous leases we had with DriveTime. Pursuant to these new leases, we are contractually obligated to make lease payments to DriveTime and Verde of $15.4 million over the remaining lease terms, which range from seven to eight years. We also entered into new leases with various third parties, pursuant to which we are contractually obligated to make lease payments of $15.2 million over the remaining lease terms which range from less than one to ten years. Further, in April 2017, we financed certain property and equipment through a sale and leaseback transaction. We are now contractually obligated to make rent payments of $5.1 million over the remaining lease term.

Outside of the recent obligations outlined above and routine transactions made in the ordinary course of business, there have been no material changes to the contractual obligations as of the most recently ended fiscal year as disclosed in our prospectus filed with the SEC on April 28, 2017 .

Fair Value Measurements

We report money market securities and certain receivables at fair value. See Note 14 — Fair Value of Financial Instruments , included in Part I, Item 1, Unaudited Condensed and Consolidated Financial Statements, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated into this item by reference.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2017 .

JOBS Act

We qualify as an “emerging growth company” pursuant to the provisions of the JOBS Act. For as long as we are an “emerging growth company,” we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies,” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure

41


obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, exemptions from the requirements of holding advisory “say-on-pay” votes on executive compensation and shareholder advisory votes on golden parachute compensation.

The JOBS Act also permits an emerging growth company like us to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. We are choosing to “opt out” of this provision and, as a result, we will comply with new or revised accounting standards as required when they are adopted.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. Our market risk exposure is primarily a result of exposure due to potential changes in inflation or interest rates. We do not hold financial instruments for trading purposes.

Interest Rate Risk

Our primary market risk exposure is changing LIBOR-based interest rates. We had total outstanding debt of $195.1 million under our variable Floor Plan Facility at September 30, 2017 . Amounts outstanding under our Floor Plan Facility are generally due within one year and bear a variable interest rate of a fixed spread to the one-month LIBOR rate. At September 30, 2017 , the applicable one-month LIBOR rate was 1.23% . Based on the amounts outstanding, a 100-basis point increase or decrease in market interest rates would result in a change to annual interest expense of $2.0 million at September 30, 2017 .

Our outstanding notes payable each have fixed interest rates, require monthly payments and mature five years after commencement. The outstanding balance totaled  $16.7 million  as of  September 30, 2017 .

Inflation Risk

Based on our analysis of the periods presented, we believe that inflation has not had a material effect on our operating results. There can be no assurance that future inflation will not have an adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such date. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or su bmit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

45


PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we are involved in various claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe that the ultimate resolution of these actions will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, liquidity and capital resources.

Future litigation may be necessary to defend ourselves and our partners by determining the scope, enforceability and validity of third party proprietary rights or to establish our proprietary rights. The results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed under the heading “Risk Factors” in our prospectus filed with the SEC on April 28, 2017

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

None.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

On November 2, 2017, we entered into a letter agreement with Ally Bank and Ally Financial (the "Ally Parties") to extend repayment of amounts due under the Floor Plan Facility for sales involving financing originated by us that are not sold to or financed by the Ally Parties.  With respect to such vehicles, the Ally Parties agree to extend repayment of the advance or the loan for such vehicle to the earlier of fifteen business days after the sale of the vehicle or two business days following the sale or funding of the retail installment contract.  The letter agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.2.

On November 3, 2017 , we amended our Purchase and Sale Agreement to increase the aggregate amount of principal balances of finance receivables we can sell from $375.0 million to $1.5 billion . Also on November 3, 2017 , we terminated the remaining capacity under the Master Transfer Agreement and replaced this facility by entering into a new master transfer agreement with an unrelated third party under which the third party has committed to purchase up to an aggregate of $357.1 million in principal balances of finance receivables. The amendment to the Purchase and Sale Agreement and new master transfer agreement are filed herewith as Exhibits 10.3 and 10.4, respectively.

On November 3, 2017, we entered into a Master Sale-Leaseback Agreement pursuant to which we may sell and lease back up to $75 million of our real property interests, including costs for construction improvements. At any time we may elect to, and beginning November 2, 2019, the purchaser has the right to demand that, we repurchase one or more sold real property interests for an amount equal to the repurchase price provided in the applicable lease and any amounts due and owing under such lease.

Attn: Kevin Hogan, Corporate Counsel

Tempe, Arizona 85281


Dear Mr. Hogan:

Re:
Notice of Change in Release Period for Certain Vehicles

Under the terms of the Amended and Restated Inventory Financing and Security Agreement, dated July 27, 2015 (as amended, the “IFSA”), Carvana, LLC must make payment to the Ally Parties within five business days of the date a vehicle is sold. The IFSA also provides that the Ally Parties may, in their sole discretion, permit more time to take into account factors such as delays in the administration, processing and delivery of payments (the “Release Period,” as defined in the IFSA). The IFSA further provides that the existence, duration, terms, and continuation of the Release Period are subject to change from time to time by the Ally Parties, and a change in the Release Period does not constitute an amendment of the IFSA.

Consistent with the foregoing, the Ally Parties hereby provide notice that:

1.
With respect to vehicles sold by Carvana pursuant to a retail installment contract that becomes subject to the so-called “Flow Purchase” or “Warehouse Financing” credit facilities between the Ally Parties and Carvana and/or its affiliates, Carvana may make payment to the Ally Parties (under IFSA Section III.C.2(a)) on or before the earlier of: one business day after the Ally Parties fund Carvana (or its affiliate) under the Part A or Part B facility, or 15 business days after the date of sale (unchanged from February 10, 2017 letter agreement); and

2.
With respect to vehicles sold by Carvana pursuant to a retail installment contract, other than as described above in Paragraph 1, Carvana may make payment to the Ally Parties (under IFSA Section III.C.2(a)) on or before the earlier of: two business days after Carvana (or its affiliate) is funded, or 15 business days after the date of sale.

3.
In all other circumstances, Carvana may make payment to the Ally Parties (under IFSA Section III.C.2(a)) on or before five business days after the date of sale.

The Ally Parties reserve the right to adjust, increase or decrease these periods in the future, in their discretion.








Please execute this letter below and return a copy to me to acknowledge Carvana’s receipt and understanding of this notice.

On each Closing Date, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Transferor agrees to sell to the Trust, and the Trust agrees to purchase from the Transferor, a Receivables Pool and the following other property relating thereto (collectively, the “ Purchased Property ”):
(i)    all right, title and interest of the Transferor in, to and under each Receivable included in the applicable Receivables Pool listed on a Schedule of Receivables (the form of which is attached as Schedule 5 to the Pool Supplement) delivered to the Trust on such Closing Date and all monies received thereon after the related Cutoff Date, exclusive of any amounts allocable to the premium for physical damage collateral protection insurance required by the Transferor or the Servicer, as applicable, covering any related Financed Vehicle;
(ii)    the interest of the Transferor in the security interests in the related Financed Vehicles granted by Obligors pursuant to the Receivables in the applicable Receivables Pool and, to the extent permitted by law, any accessions thereto;
(iii)    the interest of the Transferor in any proceeds from claims on any physical damage, credit life, credit disability, warranties, debt cancellation agreements or other insurance policies covering the related Financed Vehicles or Obligors, including any rebates or credits of any premium or other payment with respect to any of the foregoing;

3



(b)     Receivables Purchase Price . On each Closing Date, in consideration for the related Purchased Property, the Trust shall pay to the Transferor an amount (the “ Receivables Purchase Price ”) equal to the Purchase Price for such Purchased Property. The Receivables Purchase Price for each Receivables Pool shall be set forth in the Settlement Report attached to the related Pool Supplement.
(c)         Payment Within two (2) Business Days after each Closing Date, the Transferor shall pay to or as directed by the Trust in (same day) funds an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all Collections received by the Transferor after the related Cutoff Date, including from the Servicer, with respect to the Receivables Pool sold to the Trust on such Closing Date through (but excluding) the applicable Closing Date.
(d)     Selection of Receivables Pools . The Receivables to be sold in each Receivables Pool shall be all of the Receivables purchased by the Transferor pursuant to the Master Sale Agreement (Warehouse) and shall have been selected in accordance with Section 3.1(d) of the Master Sale Agreement (Warehouse). If the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that such Receivables Pool does not appear to have been selected on a random basis (based on information reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and provided by the Transferor comparing the Receivables to be sold to the Trust on the related Closing Date as compared against receivables originated by Carvana during the related Origination Period that meet the definition of an Eligible Receivable under the Loan and Servicing Agreement and are not being transferred to the Transferor pursuant to the Master Sale Agreement (Flow)), then the Administrative Agent, Carvana, the Transferor and the Trust will determine an approach to adjust the mix of Eligible Receivables in such Receivables Pool and the related CAR 2016-1 Purchased Property (as defined in the Master Sale Agreement (Warehouse) (including adding or removing Receivables meeting the definition of Eligible Receivables in the Loan and Security Agreement) to ensure that such Receivables Pool was randomly selected by Carvana and the Transferor and the Trust, as applicable. In such circumstance, Carvana, the Transferor, the Trust and the Administrative Agent will revisit this Section 3.1(d) to determine if changes thereto are needed to ensure future Receivables Pools and the related CAR 2016-1 Purchased Property are representative of receivables originated by Carvana during the related Origination Period that are eligible to be sold hereunder and that there was no adverse selection pursuant to the Freestyle Selection. The Transferor acknowledges and agrees that Carvana’s computer systems assign contract numbers to Contracts on a random basis and Carvana may not change such contract numbering system at any time without the Administrative Agent’s prior written consent (upon which, the Administrative Agent, Carvana, the Trust and the Transferor each agree to develop an alternative methodology in order to randomly select Contracts to be included in succeeding Receivables Pools and the related CAR 2016-1 Purchased Property).
(e)     Settlement Report . Not later than the second (2 nd ) Business Day prior to a Closing Date, the Transferor shall supply the Trust a final data tape in form and substance necessary for the Trust to comply with the information requirements under the Loan and Security Agreement. Not less than two (2) Business Days prior to each proposed Closing Date, the Transferor will deliver to the Trust and the Administrative Agent a Settlement Report substantially in the form of Schedule 2 attached to the Pool Supplement in form and substance necessary for the Trust to comply with the information requirements under the Loan and Security Agreement setting forth amounts due the Transferor with respect to the applicable Receivables Pool and containing at least the calculation of the related Receivables Purchase Price. Each sale hereunder shall occur immediately after the related sale for the related First Tier Receivables Pool under the Master Sale Agreement (Warehouse).
(f)     No Recourse . It is understood that each sale of Purchased Property by the Transferor to the Trust pursuant to this Agreement, the related Pool Supplement and the related Receivables Assignment shall be without recourse (except as set forth herein, and as the Trust’s rights in such recourse shall be pledged by the Trust to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement) and the Transferor does not guarantee collection of any Receivable. However, each such sale shall be made pursuant to and in reliance by the Trust on the representations, warranties and covenants of the Transferor as set forth in Section 4.2 , the indemnities set forth in Section 6.11 and the repurchase obligation set forth in Section 7.2 and the corresponding provisions of the Master Sale Agreement (Warehouse) assigned to the Trust.
(g)     Intent of the Parties . This Agreement, the applicable Pool Supplement and the related Receivables Assignment is intended to effect a sale of each Receivables Pool by the Transferor to the Trust, and the parties intend to treat each such transaction on a standalone basis as an independent sale for financial reporting purposes. It is the

4



intention of the Transferor and the Trust that each sale, transfer, assignment and other conveyance of Receivables Pools contemplated by this Agreement, the applicable Pool Supplement and the related Receivables Assignment constitutes an independent sale of the related Purchased Property from the Transferor to the Trust and that the beneficial interest in and title to each such Receivables Pool shall not be part of the Transferor’s estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Transferor under any bankruptcy law. Each sale, transfer, assignment and other conveyance contemplated by this Agreement, the applicable Pool Supplement and the related Receivables Assignment does not constitute and is not intended to result in any assumption by the Trust (or any of its assigns) of any obligation of the Transferor to the Obligors, Affiliates of the Transferor, insurers or any other Person in connection with any Receivables, any insurance policies or any agreement or instrument relating to any of them, in each case related to such transfer and assignment. Although the Parties intend that each sale, transfer, assignment and other conveyance contemplated by this Agreement, the applicable Pool Supplement and the related Receivables Assignment to be an independent sale, in the event any such transfer and assignment is deemed to be other than a sale, the parties intend and agree: (i) that all filings described in this Agreement shall give the Trust a first priority perfected security interest in, to and under the Receivables Pool and the related Purchased Property and all proceeds of any of the foregoing, in each case with respect to such transfer and assignment; (ii) this Agreement, together with the applicable Pool Supplement and the related Receivables Assignment, shall be deemed to be the grant of, and the Transferor hereby grants to the Trust, a security interest from the Transferor to the Trust and the Administrative Agent as assignee in such Receivables and the related Purchased Property in order to secure its obligations hereunder with respect to such transfer and assignment; (iii) this Agreement, together with the applicable Pool Supplement and the related Receivables Assignment, shall be a security agreement under applicable law for the purposes of each such transfer and assignment; and (iv) the Trust shall have all of the rights, powers and privileges of a secured party under the UCC with respect to each such transfer and assignment and the Purchased Property related thereto.
(h)    Due Diligence. The Transferor shall provide to the Trust such documents and other information necessary for the Trust to comply with Section 4.2(m) of the Loan and Security Agreement.

Section 3.2     The Closing. The initial closing (the “Closing”) shall take place at or about 11:00 a.m., Chicago time, at the offices of Ally Bank, in Detroit, Michigan on or about November 3, 2017, or at such other time, date and place as the parties shall agree upon.
ARTICLE IV

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Section 4.1         Representations and Warranties of the Trust. The Trust represents and warrants to the Transferor as of the date hereof and as of each Closing Date:

(cc)     Receivables . The Transferor makes the following representations and warranties as of each Closing Date (except to the extent otherwise provided) with respect to the Receivables the Transferor sold to the Trust on such Closing Date, on which the Trust, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders relies in accepting such Receivables. Such representations and warranties speak as of the applicable Closing Date (except as provided herein otherwise), and shall survive the sale, transfer and assignment of such Receivables to the Trust and any subsequent sale, assignment or transfer of any such Receivables:
(i)     Selection of Receivables. As of each Cutoff Date with respect to the related Receivables to be purchased, the Receivables Pool was selected as described in Section 2.1(a) .
(ii)     Creation, Perfection and Priority of Security Interests . The following representations and warranties regarding creation, perfection and priority of security interests in the Purchased Property or the Collateral, as applicable, are true and correct:
(A)    While it is the intention of the Transferor and the Trust that the transfer and assignment contemplated by this Agreement, each Pool Supplement and each Receivables Assignment shall constitute sales of the related Purchased Property from the Transferor to the Trust, this Agreement, each Pool Supplement and, upon execution and delivery, each Receivables Assignment shall create a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in the related Purchased Property in favor of the Trust, which security interest is prior to all other Liens, and is enforceable as such against creditors of and purchasers from the Transferor. The Loan and Security Agreement creates a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in the Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent, which security interest is prior to all other Liens, and is enforceable as such against creditors of and purchasers from the Trust.
(B)    Prior to the sale of such Purchased Property to the Trust under this Agreement, the Receivables constituted “tangible chattel paper” or “electronic chattel paper” within the meaning of the applicable UCC.
(C)    All filings (including such UCC filings) as are necessary in any jurisdiction to perfect the security interest of the Trust and the Administrative Agent in the Purchased Property and the Collateral (subject to permitted exceptions for titling), as applicable, have been (or prior to the applicable Closing Date will be) made.
(D)    Other than the sale and backup security interest granted to the Trust or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement, the Transferor has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of such Purchased Property or Collateral. The Transferor has not authorized the filing of, and is not aware of, any financing statements against the Transferor that include a description of collateral covering such Purchased Property other than the financing statements relating to the security interests granted to the Trust and the Administrative Agent, as assignees, under this Agreement or any financing statement that has been effectively terminated. The Transferor is not aware of any judgment or tax lien filings against it or such Purchased Property or the Collateral.
(E)    Wells Fargo, as Collateral Custodian, or a permitted subcontractor, has in its possession all original copies of the related Original Contract Documents and other documents that constitute or evidence such Receivables and the related Purchased Property that are tangible chattel paper. The E-Vault Provider has in its “control” (as such term is used in Section 9-105 of the UCC), for the benefit of the Trust, and upon the pledge of the Collateral to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement, as the “secured party” (as such term is used in Section 9-105 of the UCC), all electronic records constituting or forming a part of the Receivables that are electronic

9



chattel paper, such that the Trust has had, and will have, and the Administrative Agent has had and will have, at all times a first priority perfected security interest against the Transferor, the Trust and their respective creditors in such Receivables or Collateral, as applicable. Such Receivable Files and other documents that constitute or evidence such Purchased Property do not have any marks or notations indicating that any ownership or security interest therein has been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Trust and, upon assignment to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement, the Administrative Agent.
(F)    None of the Transferor, the Trust, the Servicer or a custodian or vaulting agent thereof holding any Receivable that is electronic chattel paper has communicated an Authoritative Copy of any loan agreement that constitutes or evidences such Receivable to any Person other than the Collateral Custodian for the benefit of the Trust and, upon assignment of the Collateral to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement, the Administrative Agent.
(iii)     Schedule of Receivables . The information set forth in the related Schedule of Receivables and in any computer tape regarding the Receivables is true, accurate and complete, and no selection procedures believed to be adverse to the Trust, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders were utilized in selecting such Receivables, with respect to the related Receivables Pool, from those receivables of Carvana that otherwise meet such criteria as well as the definition of Eligible Receivables.
(iv)     Compliance With Law . All Requirements of Law in respect of any aspect of such Receivables and the related Purchased Property (including the origination thereof), in each case, have been complied with in all material respects and each Receivable and the sale of the related Financed Vehicle evidenced thereby complied at the time it was originated or made and now complies in all material respects with all applicable Requirements of Law.
(v)     Binding Obligation . Each such Receivable with respect to the related Receivables Pool represents the genuine, legal, valid and binding payment obligation in writing of the Obligor thereon, enforceable by the holder thereof in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, receivership, conservatorship, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and by equity, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.
(vi)     Security Interest in Financed Vehicle . Immediately prior to the sale, transfer and assignment thereof pursuant hereto and the related Receivables Assignment, each such Receivable with respect to the related Receivables Pool was secured by a valid security interest in the Financed Vehicle in favor of the Transferor as secured party. Immediately prior to the sale, transfer and assignment thereof pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement, each such Receivable with respect to the related Receivables Pool was secured by a valid security interest in the Financed Vehicle in favor of the Trust as secured party.
(vii)     Receivables In Force . As of the applicable Cutoff Date, no such Receivable has been satisfied, subordinated or rescinded, and the Financed Vehicle securing each such Receivable has not been released from the lien of the related Receivable in whole or in part.
(viii)     No Waiver . Since the applicable Cutoff Date, no provision of a Receivable has been, or shall be, waived, altered or modified in any respect other than with respect to alterations and modifications so that such Receivable meets the Eligible Receivable criteria (other than clause (ix) thereof, which must have been satisfied at the time of origination and at all times since that date) and such Receivable is enforceable after giving effect thereto.
(ix)     No Defenses . No right of rescission, setoff, counterclaim or defense has been asserted or threatened with respect to any such Receivable.

10



(x)     No Liens . To the best of the Transferor’s knowledge: (1) there are no Lien or claims that have been filed for work, labor or materials affecting any Financed Vehicle securing any such Receivable that are or may be Lien prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the security interest in the Financed Vehicle granted by such Receivable; (2) no contribution failure has occurred with respect to any Benefit Plan which is sufficient to give rise to a Lien under Section 303(k) of ERISA with respect to any such Receivable; and (3) no tax lien has been filed and no claim related thereto is being asserted with respect to any such Receivable.
(xi)     Insurance . Each Obligor under such Receivables is required to maintain a physical damage insurance policy of the type that Carvana requires in accordance with the Credit Policy.
(xii)     Good Title . No such Receivable or the related Purchased Property or the Collateral has been sold, transferred, assigned or pledged by the Transferor to any Person other than the Trust, the Trust and the Administrative Agent; immediately prior to the conveyance of such Receivables and the related Purchased Property pursuant to this Agreement, the related Pool Supplement and the related Receivables Assignment, the Transferor had good and marketable title thereto, free of any Lien other than Permitted Liens; and, upon execution and delivery of the Loan and Security Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall acquire a valid and enforceable perfected security interest in each such Receivable and Purchased Property and the Collateral (subject to permitted exceptions for titling), the unpaid indebtedness evidenced thereby and the collateral security therefor, free of any Lien other than Permitted Liens.
(xiii)     Lawful Assignment . No such Receivable or the related Purchased Property was originated in, or is subject to Requirements of Law of, any jurisdiction the Requirements of Law of which would make unlawful, void or voidable the sale, transfer and assignment of such Receivable and the other related Purchased Property under this Agreement and the related Receivables Assignment or the pledge of the Collateral under the Loan and Security Agreement. None of the Transferor, the Trust, the Trust or the Servicer has entered into any agreement with any Obligor that prohibits, restricts or conditions the assignment of such Receivable or any other Purchased Property or Collateral.
(xiv)     All Filings Made . All filings (including UCC filings) necessary in any jurisdiction to give the Trust and the Administrative Agent a first priority perfected ownership interest in the Receivables and the related Purchased Property or the Collateral (subject to permitted exceptions for titling), as applicable, shall have been made.
(xv)     One Original . There is only one original executed copy of each tangible record constituting or forming a part of such Receivable that is tangible chattel paper or a single Authoritative Copy of each electronic record constituting or forming a part of each Purchased Receivable that is electronic chattel paper.
(xvi)     No Documents or Instruments . No such Receivable, or constituent part thereof, constitutes a “negotiable instrument” or “negotiable document of title” (as such terms are used in the UCC).
(xvii)     Accounts and Receivables Analysis . The information set forth in the Accounts and Receivables Analysis with respect to such Receivable and the related Receivables Pool, as applicable, provided on Schedule 4 of the related Pool Supplement is true and correct in all material respects.

RECITALS

Pursuant to that certain [Ground Lease] dated ______________, between Owner, as ground lessor, and CARVANA, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company (“ Carvana ”), as ground lessee, as amended, modified and supplemented by ___________________ (collectively, together with any further amendments, modifications or supplements, the “ Prime Lease ”), Owner leased the Property to Carvana.
B.    Pursuant to that certain Ground Sublease Agreement dated _______________, 20__ (the “ Sublease Agreement ”), Carvana, as sublandlord, has subleased the Land and any and all improvements located thereon (the “ Leased Premises ”) to Landlord, as subtenant, subject to the terms and conditions of the Sublease Agreement.]
[IF NON-GROUND LEASE TRANSACTION A. Landlord is the owner of the real property more particularly described on Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “ Leased Premises ”).]
[B][C].    Landlord and Carvana (in its capacity as tenant of the Operator Lease defined below, “ Original Tenant ”; Original Tenant and any future tenant pursuant to the Lease are referred to collectively or individually, as the case may be, as the “ Tenant ”) have entered into that certain Operator Lease Agreement dated as of the date hereof (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “ Operator Lease ”), pursuant to which Landlord [subleases][leases] to Tenant the Leased Premises and any and all improvements now or hereafter located thereon (the “ Improvements ”, and together with the Leased Premises, collectively, the “ Property ”).
[C][D].    As a condition to Landlord entering into the Operator Lease, Guarantor has agreed to execute and deliver this Guaranty for the benefit of Landlord.
[D][E].    Guarantor owns a substantial direct and/or indirect interest in the Original Tenant and will derive substantial benefit from the Operator Lease.
[E][F].    All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Operator Lease.
In consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and in order to induce the Landlord to enter into the Operator Lease, Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:
1. Guaranty . Guarantor unconditionally, absolutely and irrevocably guarantees the punctual and complete payment and/or performance and/or completion when due of all obligations of the Tenant pursuant to the Operator Lease, including but not limited to the payment when due of all Monetary Obligations, including, without limitation, Rental, taxes, insurance premiums, impounds, reimbursements, late charges, default interest, damages,



indemnity obligations and all other amounts, costs, fees, expenses and charges of any kind or type whatsoever, which may or at any time be due to Landlord under or pursuant to the documents listed on Schedule I attached hereto (collectively, the “ Documents ”) and the completion of all construction and alterations now being performed or to be performed and completed in the future in accordance with the Operator Lease. Guarantor also unconditionally guarantees the satisfaction of all conditions by Tenant and the full and timely performance of all obligations to be performed by Tenant, under or pursuant to the Documents.
[FOR TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING CONSTRUCTION: In addition, Guarantor hereby unconditionally guarantees to and for the benefit of Landlord the full, prompt and complete performance by Tenant of all the terms and provisions of the Construction and Disbursement Agreement dated as of the date of this Guaranty (the “ Disbursement Agreement ”) pertaining to Tenant’s obligations with respect to the design, permitting, installation, construction and completion of the construction of the Improvements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Guarantor guarantees that, subject to the terms and conditions of the Disbursement Agreement: (a) the Improvements will be constructed, installed and completed in accordance with the Development Documents, the Master Sale-Leaseback Agreement (as defined in the Disbursement Agreement) and the other Transaction Documents (as defined in the Disbursement Agreement), subject to modifications to the extent permitted thereunder; (b) the Improvements will be constructed, installed and completed free and clear of any liens on account of the construction, installation and/or completion of the Improvements; and (c) all costs of constructing the Improvements, including any and all cost overruns or Change Orders (as defined in the Disbursement Agreement) will be paid when due. Completion of the Improvements free and clear of liens (other than Permitted Exceptions, as defined in the Master Sale-Leaseback Agreement) will be deemed to have occurred only upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the Development Documents and the Disbursement Agreement, and the expiration of the applicable statutory periods of the state in which the Leased Premises is located within which valid construction, mechanics or materialmen’s liens may be recorded and served by reason of the design, supply or construction of the Improvements with any such liens, other than contested items, that have been filed having been released, discharged of record, or bonded pursuant to the Disbursement Agreement, or, alternatively, Landlord’s receipt of valid, unconditional final lien releases thereof from all persons entitled to record such liens.
If (i) the Improvements are not constructed in the manner required by the Development Documents and the Disbursement Agreement, (ii) construction of such Improvements should cease or be abandoned prior to the completion of the Improvements for such period of time that constitutes an Event of Default under the Disbursement Agreement, Operator Lease or Master Sale-Leaseback Agreement, or (iii) any Event of Default under the Transaction should otherwise exist, then Guarantor will, promptly upon written demand of Landlord either: (A) to the extent such Event of Default is a Property Event of Default (as defined in the Master Sale-Leaseback Agreement), cause Tenant to repurchase the Property pursuant to Section 9.2 of the Master Sale-Leaseback Agreement or, if Tenant is unable to repurchase the Property for any reason, Guarantor shall repurchase the Property from Landlord under the same terms and condition set forth in Section 9.2 of the Master Sale-Leaseback Agreement, or (B) diligently proceed to commence the completion of the Improvements and to cause the completion of the Improvements to occur; (C) fully pay and discharge all claims for labor performed and material and services furnished in connection with the design, supply, construction or installation of the Improvements that are then due and payable; and (D) release and discharge or bond all claims of construction liens and equitable liens that may arise in connection with the design, supply, construction or installation of the Improvements. Landlord agrees to give Guarantor access to the Property as and to the extent necessary to complete the Improvements or to exercise any other right set forth in this Guaranty.]
The matters which are guaranteed pursuant to this paragraph 1 are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “ Obligations ”. The obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty are primary, joint and several and independent of the obligations of Tenant and any and every other guarantor of the Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and executed against Guarantor or any other such guarantor, whether or not such action is brought against Tenant or any other such guarantor and whether or not Tenant or any other such guarantor be joined in such action or actions.

Rev. Stat. §12-1641 and §12–1642 et seq., §44-141, §44-142 or §47-3605, Arizona Rules of Civil Procedure Rule 17(f), or any other laws, statutes or rules (including any laws, statutes or rules amending, supplementing or supplanting same) which may conflict with the terms of this Guaranty or might operate, contrary to Guarantor’s agreements in this Guaranty, to limit Guarantor’s liability under, or the enforcement of, this Guaranty; (f) covenants that this Guaranty will not be discharged until all of the Obligations are fully satisfied; and (g) agrees that this Guaranty shall remain in full effect without regard to, and shall not be affected or impaired by, any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability in whole or in part of any of the Documents, or any limitation of the liability of Tenant or Guarantor thereunder, or any limitation on the method or terms of payment thereunder which may now or hereafter be caused or imposed in any manner whatsoever.
3. Continuing Guaranty . This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty, and the obligations, undertakings and conditions to be performed or observed by Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be affected or impaired by reason of the happening from time to time of the following with respect to the Documents, all without notice to, or the further consent of, Guarantor: (a) the waiver by Landlord of the observance or performance by Tenant or Guarantor of any of the obligations, undertakings, conditions or other provisions contained in any of the Documents, except to the extent of such waiver; (b) the extension, in whole or in part, of the time for payment of any amount owing or payable under the Documents; (c) the modification or amendment (whether material or otherwise) of any of the obligations of Tenant under, or any other provisions of, any of the Documents, except to the extent of such modification or amendment; (d)  the taking or the omission of any of the actions referred to in any of the Documents (including, without limitation, the giving of any consent referred to therein); (e) any failure, omission, delay or lack on the part of Landlord to enforce, assert or exercise any provision of the Documents, including any right, power or remedy conferred on Landlord in any of the Documents or any action on the part of Landlord granting indulgence or extension in any form; (f) the assignment to or assumption by any third party of any or all of the rights or obligations of Tenant under all or any of the Documents; (g) the release or discharge of Tenant from the performance or observance of any obligation, undertaking or condition to be performed by Tenant under any of the Documents by operation of law, including any rejection or disaffirmance of any of the Documents in any bankruptcy or similar proceedings; (h) the receipt and acceptance by Landlord or any other Person of notes, checks or other instruments for the payment of money and extensions and renewals thereof; (i) any action, inaction or election of remedies by Landlord which results in any impairment or destruction of any subrogation rights of Guarantor, or any rights of Guarantor to proceed against any other Person for reimbursement; (j) any setoff, defense, counterclaim, abatement, recoupment, reduction, change in law or any other event or circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor, indemnitor or surety under the laws of the State of Arizona, the state in which the Property is located or any other jurisdiction; and (k) the termination or renewal of any of the Obligations or any other provision thereof.
4. Representations and Warranties .

to which Guarantor is now a party or by which Guarantor may be bound, or result in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of Guarantor, which conflict, breach, default, lien, charge or encumbrance could result in a material adverse change in the financial condition of Guarantor; (b) no further consents, approvals or authorizations are required for the execution and delivery of this Guaranty by Guarantor or for Guarantor’s compliance with the terms and provisions of this Guaranty; (c) this Guaranty is the legal, valid and binding agreement of Guarantor and is enforceable against Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization and other laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and subject to general principles of equity; (d) Guarantor has the full power, authority, capacity and legal right to execute and deliver this Guaranty, and, to the extent Guarantor is a limited liability company or other form of entity, the parties executing this Guaranty on behalf of Guarantor are fully authorized and directed to execute the same to bind Guarantor; (e) Guarantor is not, and if Guarantor is a “disregarded entity,” any owner of the disregarded entity is not, a “nonresident alien,” “foreign corporation,” “foreign partnership,” “foreign trust,” “foreign estate,” or any other “person” that is not a “United States person,” as those terms are defined in the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder; (f) Guarantor is not a party with whom a citizen of the United States is prohibited from engaging in transactions by any trade embargo, economic sanction or other prohibition of United States law, regulation or Executive Order of the President of the United States; (g) all financial statements and other information relating to Guarantor heretofore delivered to Landlord are true, correct and complete in all material respects as of the date of this Guaranty; and (h) the Documents are conclusively presumed to have been signed in reliance on this Guaranty, and the assumption by Guarantor of Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty results in direct financial benefit to Guarantor. Guarantor understands that Landlord is relying on the representations and warranties of Guarantor, and Guarantor represents that such reliance is reasonable.
5. Nature of Guaranty . This Guaranty shall commence upon execution and delivery of any of the Documents and shall continue in full force and effect until all of the Obligations are duly, finally and permanently paid, performed and discharged and are not subject to any right of extension by Tenant, and Landlord gives Guarantor written notice of the full and final satisfaction of the Obligations. The Obligations shall not be considered fully paid, performed and discharged unless and until all payments by Tenant to Landlord are no longer subject to any right on the part of any Person whomsoever, including but not limited to Tenant, Tenant as a debtor-in-possession and/or any trustee in bankruptcy, to disgorge such payments or seek to recoup the amount of such payments or any part thereof. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective upon an Insolvency Event. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as applicable, if at any time payment and performance of the Obligations, or any part thereof, are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by Landlord, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment of the Obligations, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid to Landlord and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. If  Tenant, or Tenant’s trustee, receiver or other officer with similar powers with respect to Tenant, rejects, disaffirms or otherwise terminates the Operator Lease pursuant to any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or any other law affecting creditors’ rights generally, Guarantor shall nonetheless remain obligated to pay all sums payable and/or due pursuant to the Operator Lease, and to perform all covenants required to be performed by Tenant under the Operator Lease, as if such rejection, disaffirmance or other termination of the Operator Lease had never occurred and as if the Operator Lease (without taking into account such rejection, disaffirmance or termination) were in full force and effect, notwithstanding the fact that: (a) Landlord may not be able to recover any part or all of such sums due pursuant to the Operator Lease from Tenant; or (b) Tenant’s obligations to pay sums due pursuant to the Operator Lease, or to perform obligations pursuant to the Operator Lease, may be limited by application of such bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other law affecting creditors’ rights generally. 
6. Subordination . Notwithstanding Section 2, in the event that Guarantor shall have any claims against Tenant, any indebtedness of Tenant now or hereafter held by Guarantor is hereby subordinated to the indebtedness of Tenant to Landlord, including, without limitation, any and all amounts due to Landlord under the Operator Lease. Any such indebtedness of Tenant to Guarantor, if Landlord so requests, shall be collected, enforced and received by Guarantor



as trustee for Landlord and be paid over to Landlord on account of the Obligations, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty.
7. Authority . It is not necessary for Landlord to inquire into the powers of Tenant or its officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on its behalf, and Guarantor shall be liable for the Obligations in accordance with their terms notwithstanding any lack of authorization or defect in execution or delivery by Tenant.
8. Attorneys’ Fees and Costs . In addition to the amounts guaranteed under this Guaranty, Guarantor agrees to pay (a) all of Landlord’s Costs, and (b) interest (including post-petition interest to the extent a petition is filed by or against Tenant under the Bankruptcy Code) at the Default Rate on any Obligations not paid when due. Guarantor hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Landlord for, from and against all Losses suffered or occasioned by the failure of Tenant to satisfy its obligations under the Documents. The agreement to indemnify Landlord contained in this Section shall be enforceable notwithstanding the invalidity or unenforceability of the Documents or any of them or the invalidity or unenforceability of any other paragraph contained in this Guaranty. All moneys available to Landlord for application in payment or reduction of the liabilities of Tenant under the Documents may be applied by Landlord to the payment or reduction of such liabilities of Tenant, in such manner, in such amounts and at such time or times as Landlord may elect.
9. Notice . All notices, demands, designations, certificates, requests, offers, consents, approvals, appointments and other instruments given pursuant to this Guaranty (collectively called “ Notices ”) shall be in writing and given by any one of the following: (a) hand delivery; (b) express overnight delivery service; (c) certified or registered mail, return receipt requested; or (d) electronic mail message, and shall be deemed to have been delivered upon (i) receipt, if hand delivered, (ii) the next Business Day, if delivered by a reputable express overnight delivery service; (iii) the third Business Day following the day of deposit of such notice with the United States Postal Service, if sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested; or (iv) transmission, if delivered by electronic mail. Notices shall be provided to the parties and addresses (or electronic mail addresses) as either party may from time to time hereafter specify to the other party in a notice delivered in the manner provided above.
10. Governing Law . This Guaranty is delivered in the State of Arizona and it is the intent of Guarantor and Landlord that this Guaranty shall be deemed to be a contract made under and governed by the internal laws of the State of Arizona, without regard to its principles of conflicts of law. For purposes of any action or proceeding involving this Guaranty, Guarantor submits to the jurisdiction of all federal and state courts located in the State of Arizona and consents that Guarantor may be served with any process or paper by registered mail or by personal service within or without the State of Arizona in accordance with applicable law. Guarantor waives and agrees not to assert in any such action, suit or proceeding that Guarantor is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such courts, that the action, suit or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that venue of the action, suit or proceeding is improper. Nothing contained in this section shall limit or restrict the right of Landlord to commence any proceeding in the federal or state courts located in the state where the Leased Premises is located or in the State in which Guarantor maintains Guarantor’s residence or chief executive office to the extent Landlord deems such proceeding necessary or advisable to exercise remedies available under the Documents.
11. Acknowledgement of Operator Lease . Guarantor intends for the Operator Lease to be a “true lease” and not a financing lease, capital lease, mortgage, equitable mortgage, deed of trust, security agreement or other financing or trust arrangement, and the economic realities of the Operator Lease are those of a true lease. Guarantor shall not challenge the validity, enforceability or characterization of the Transaction, and Guarantor shall support the intent of Guarantor, Tenant and Landlord that the Operator Lease is a “true lease” and does not create a joint venture, partnership, equitable mortgage, trust, financing device or arrangement, trust agreement, security interest or the like.
12. Independent Rights . All of Landlord’s rights and remedies under the Documents and this Guaranty are intended to be distinct, separate and cumulative and no such right and remedy is intended to be in exclusion of or a waiver of any of the others, except as expressly provided to the contrary in the Documents.



13. Assignment . Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that Landlord may assign this Guaranty solely in compliance with Section 10.5 of the Master Sale-Leaseback Agreement.
14. Inurement . This Guaranty is solely for the benefit of Landlord, its permitted successors and assigns, and is not intended to nor shall it be deemed to be for the benefit of any third party, including, without limitation, Tenant. This Guaranty and all obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of Guarantor (including, a debtor-in-possession on behalf of Guarantor) and shall, together with the rights and remedies of Landlord hereunder, inure to the benefit of Landlord, all future holders of any instrument evidencing any of the Obligations and its successor and assigns. No sales, participations, assignments, transfers or other dispositions of any agreement governing or instrument evidencing the Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner affect the rights of Landlord or its successors and assigns hereunder. Guarantor may not assign, sell, hypothecate. revoke or otherwise transfer any interest in or obligation under this Guaranty.
15. Severability . If any provision of this Guaranty is unenforceable, the enforceability of the other provisions shall not be affected and they shall remain in full force and effect. Guarantor agrees to take such action and to sign such other documents as may be appropriate to carry out the intent of this Guaranty. This Guaranty may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original.
16. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL . LANDLORD, BY ACCEPTING THIS GUARANTY, AND GUARANTOR HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY AND ALL ISSUES PRESENTED IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY LANDLORD OR GUARANTOR AGAINST ANY PARTY OR THEIR SUCCESSORS WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS GUARANTY, THE RELATIONSHIP OF LANDLORD, TENANT AND/OR GUARANTOR, TENANT’S USE OR OCCUPANCY OF THE PROPERTY, AND/OR ANY CLAIM FOR INJURY OR DAMAGE, OR ANY EMERGENCY OR STATUTORY REMEDY. THIS WAIVER BY LANDLORD AND GUARANTOR OF ANY RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY HAS BEEN NEGOTIATED AND IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR LANDLORD ACCEPTING THIS GUARANTY. FURTHERMORE, GUARANTOR HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT GUARANTYOR MAY HAVE TO SEEK PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL AND INDIRECT DAMAGES FROM LANLDORD OR ANY OF LANDLORD’S AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, MANAGERS OR EMPLOYEES OR ANY OF LANDLORD’S SUCCESSORS WITH RESPECT TO ANY AND ALL ISSUES PRESENTED IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY GUARANTOR AGAINST LANDORD OR ANY OF LANDLORD’S AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, MANAGERS OR EMPLOYEES OR ANY OF LANDLORD’S SUCCESSORS WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS GUARANTY OR ANY DOCUMENTS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN OR RELATED HERETO. THE WAIVER BY GUARANTOR OF ANY RIGHT GUARANTOR MAY HAVE TO SEEK PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL AND INDIRECT DAMAGES HAS BEEN NEGOTIATED AND IS AN ESSENTIAL ASPECT OF GUARANTOR’S BARGAIN.
17. Final Agreement . This Guaranty represents the final agreement between Landlord and Guarantor and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements. Guarantor covenants and agrees that there are no unwritten oral agreements between Landlord and Guarantor and all prior or contemporaneous agreements, understandings, representations, and statements, oral or written, are merged into this Guaranty. Neither this Guaranty nor any provision hereof may be waived, modified, amended, discharged, revoked or terminated except by an agreement in writing signed by the party against which the enforcement of such waiver, modification, amendment, discharge, revocation or termination is sought, and then only to the extent set forth in such agreement.
