This Amendment No. 4 (this “Amendment No. 4”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO originally filed on November 24, 2015 by Copart, Inc., a Delaware corporation, as amended on November 25, 2015, December 4, 2015, and December 24, 2015 (the “Schedule TO”). The Schedule TO, as amended by this Amendment No. 4, relates to the offer by Copart, Inc. to purchase up to 7,317,073 shares of its common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, at a price not greater than $41.00 nor less than $38.00 per share, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated November 24, 2015 (the “Offer to Purchase”), previously filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(A) to the Schedule TO, and in the related Letter of Transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”), previously filed as Exhibit (a)(1)(B) to the Schedule TO (which, as amended or supplemented from time to time, together constitute the “Offer”). The Offer expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Wednesday, December 23, 2015. This Amendment No. 4, as it amends and supplements the Schedule TO, is intended to satisfy the reporting requirements of Rule 13e-4(c)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

This Amendment No. 4 is filed to include the information set forth below and only those items amended are reported in this Amendment No. 4. Except as specifically provided herein, the information contained in the Schedule TO remains unchanged and this Amendment No. 4 does not modify any of the information previously reported on Schedule TO.

Based on the final count, we have been advised by the depositary that 11,781,596 shares of our common stock, were validly tendered and not withdrawn in the tender offer at or below a price of $39.00. We acquired 8,333,333 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $39.00 per share for a total cost of approximately $325.0 million, excluding fees and expenses related to the tender offer. The 8,333,333 shares represent approximately 6.9% of the shares issued and outstanding.
