Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On April 20, 2012, Motorcar Parts of America, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) and a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement, 17 accredited investors agreed to purchase an aggregate of 1,936,000 shares of common stock in a private placement exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance upon Rule 506 of Regulation D, for a purchase price of $7.75 per share (the “Private Placement”), with gross proceeds of approximately $15 million. No investor purchasing shares in this private placement resulted in such investors having beneficial ownership of more than 19.99% of the Company’s common stock. A press release was issued on April 20, 2012 announcing the transaction, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to this Form 8-K.

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Company made certain representations, warranties, and covenants that are customary for private placement transactions. Pursuant to the Rights Agreement, the Company has agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to register for resale the common stock sold in the Private Placement not later than 45 days after the closing of the Private Placement and to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective, subject to certain exceptions, within 60 days of closing (or 120 days in the event of an SEC review). Failure to meet these deadlines and certain other events may result in the Company’s payment to the Purchasers of liquidated damages in the amount of 1.0% of the purchase price per 30-day period pending filing of the registration statement, effectiveness of the registration statement or other events, as applicable. A copy of the Subscription Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement are being filed as exhibits to this Form 8-K.
