Item 4. Ownership:
The information required by Item 4 is set forth in Rows 5-11 of each Reporting Person's respective cover page hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
The Reporting Persons and DDFS LLC are parties to a Shareholders Agreement dated as of January 28, 2014 (the “Shareholders Agreement”), which provides certain board nomination rights to SHUSA and certain voting obligations in connection with those rights. The beneficial ownership reported for each Reporting Person does not include an aggregate of 34,598,506 shares of Common Stock held by DDFS LLC and the Reporting Persons currently disclaim beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock owned by DDFS LLC. The inclusion of the shares in this Schedule 13G shall not be deemed to be an admission of beneficial ownership of the reported shares for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act or otherwise. DDFS LLC is an entity affiliated with Thomas G. Dundon, the former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer. Pursuant to a Separation Agreement (the "Separation Agreement") dated July 2, 2015 among the Issuer, Santander Consumer USA Inc. (a wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer), Banco Santander, SHUSA, DDFS LLC and Mr. Dundon, the Reporting Person was deemed to have delivered, as of July 3, 2015, an irrevocable notice to exercise a call option to purchase the 34,598,506 shares of the Common Stock owned by DDFS LLC, subject to the receipt of required bank regulatory approvals and any other approvals required by law (the "Call Transaction"). Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, because the Call Transaction was not consummated prior to October 15, 2015, DDFS LLC is free to transfer any or all of its shares of Common Stock, subject to the terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated as of July 16, 2014 between DDFS LLC and Banco Santander. On August 31, 2016, Banco Santander exercised its option under the Shareholders Agreement to become the direct obligor of SHUSA’s obligation to purchase those shares of Common Stock from DDFS LLC. It is expected that Banco Santander will subsequently contribute those shares of Common Stock to SHUSA, which will be accounted for by SHUSA as an equity contribution. To date, the Call Transaction has not been consummated.
