Open Letter to our Dealers

LOS ANGELES, California – January 9, 2012

Dear Dealer Partner:

Thank you for helping to make Westlake recognized across the industry as a financial leader. We are thankful for your business and helping us grow! 2011 brought us growth in excess of 30% over 2010, and that type of success can only be achieved with your support.

For over 30 years we have been providing lending programs custom catered to help you finance your customers. Our basic philosophy is that any customer that comes on to your lot should be afforded the opportunity to drive away from your dealership in one of your cars. In doing so, you can sell a wider range of vehicles to a larger customer base and increase your market foot print, and your bottom line in the process.

Tax season is now upon us and tax season at Westlake is historically our busiest time of the year. Although we have a full suite of products that can approve your 0 FICO customers up to your 850 FICO customers, our core sub-prime customers come out in droves to dealerships during this period of time. With aggressive approvals, reasonable rates and fees, and 24 hour per day 7 day per week instant approval system, we are ready to help you sell more cars, build your customer base, and increase your profits!

Thank you for your continued business and we value your relationship.

Sincerely,
Don Hankey – Chairman of the Board
Ian L. Anderson – President
Mark Vazquez – VP of Sales
