This security deposit will be at least 10% of the purchase price and could be more depending on the Glasses Guide trade value of the vehicle or the specific Dealer’s Reimbursement percentage. If the Glasses Guide value is less than the purchase price, then TFS will still purchase the vehicle for the dealer’s purchase price, but will hold in security the difference between the specific reimbursement percentage for the dealer of the Glasses Guide and the dealer’s purchase price.

12. Capital Loan Payments
TFS offers capital loans to Toyota dealerships operating or associated companies. Capital
Loans are used for:
•
Purchase of a Toyota franchise business
•
Purchase of property that the dealership operates from
•
Working capital.
Chargeplan is categorised as a bulk funding facility with 'come and go' limit permitting
'drawdown' and repayment to suit a dealership’s used vehicle stock funding requirements. The
used vehicle charge plan facility is available to TFS dealers to enable them to finance used
vehicle stock inventory
The chargeplan product is an alternative to bailment and provides the dealer with a greater
degree of flexibility for funding used vehicle stock. The product differs to bailment in that title
and ownership of used vehicle stock remains with the dealer and Toyota Finance Australia
Limited (TFAL) takes a mortgage of the dealership’s used vehicle trading stock. This is usually
achieved through the lodgement of a fixed and floating mortgage debenture charge over the
assets and undertakings of the company that owns the used stock in the dealership structure,
usually the operating company.
