Item 8.01 Other Item.

On February 29, 2016, PRA Group Polska sp. z o.o. (the “Purchaser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of PRA Group, Inc. (the “Company”) announced a tender offer (the “Offer”) for 100% of the shares of DTP S.A., (“DTP”) a Polish-based debt collection company with shares traded on the Warsaw Stock Exchange, for PLN 4.90 per share (approximately US$ 1.23 per share) or an aggregate of PLN 174,998,600 (approximately US$ 43,749,650) assuming PRA acquires 100% of the DTP shares. The Company plans to finance this transaction with cash held in Europe and borrowings under its European credit facility.
 
Closing of the tender offer is subject to satisfaction or waiver of customary conditions, including (i) approval of the transaction by Polish competition authorities, and (ii) the tender of shares being received in respect of at least 80% of the outstanding shares of DTP in response to the Offer. Any such conditions can be waived by the Purchaser in accordance with the Offer. The Purchaser has received undertakings from certain shareholders holding approximately 65% of the outstanding shares of DTP, pursuant to which such shareholders have agreed to tender their shares in response to the Offer. Subject to the satisfaction of the closing conditions, the Company currently expects that the Offer will close in the second quarter of 2016.
