Item 1.01
  
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement


On June 2, 2006 our Cendant Rental Car Funding (AESOP) LLC subsidiary (the “Issuer”) entered into a conduit facility pursuant to which it issued its secured Series 2006-2 Variable Funding Rental Car Asset Backed Notes (the “Series 2006-2 Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $600,000,000 under the Series 2006-2 Supplement (the “Indenture Supplement”), dated as of June 2, 2006 among the Issuer, Avis Budget Car Rental, LLC, as administrator, Barclays Bank PLC, as administrative agent, as funding agent and as APA bank, Stratford Receivables Company, LLC, as a commercial paper conduit purchaser, and The Bank of New York, as trustee and as Series 2006-2 Agent, to the Second Amended and Restated Base Indenture (the “Base Indenture”), dated June 3, 2004, between the Issuer and The Bank of New York, as trustee, as amended by Supplemental Indenture No. 1 thereto, dated as of December 23, 2005, between the Issuer and The Bank of New York, as trustee. This facility is available on a revolving basis.

The Series 2006-2 Notes are secured under the Base Indenture primarily by vehicles, the majority of which are subject to manufacturer repurchase obligations and other related assets. In addition, the payment of interest on, and principal of, the Series 2006-2 Notes are insured by a financial guaranty insurance policy issued by XL Capital Assurance Inc. The Series 2006-2 Notes bear interest at variable rates. The commitment to lend under this facility is expected to terminate on June 1, 2007 and the commitment of the commercial paper conduits to lend under this facility is conditioned upon each conduit's ability to issue commercial paper. A copy of the Indenture Supplement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.

The purchaser of the Series 2006-2 Notes, the administrative agent and the trustee, and their respective affiliates, have performed and may in the future perform, various commercial banking, investment banking and other financial advisory services for us and our subsidiaries for which they have received, and will receive, customary fees and expenses.
