Safe Harbor Statement Information included in the following slides is believed to be accurate, but is not necessarily complete. Such information should be reviewed in its appropriate context. The implication that historical trends will continue in the future, or that past performance is indicative of future results, is disclaimed. To the extent that one reading the following material nevertheless makes such an inference, such inference would be a forward-looking statement, and would be subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to vary. Such risks include variable economic conditions, adverse portfolio performance (resulting, for example, from increased defaults by the underlying obligors), volatile wholesale values of collateral underlying CPS assets, reliance on warehouse financing and on the capital markets, fluctuating interest rates, increased competition, regulatory changes, the risk of obligor default inherent sub-prime financing, and exposure to litigation.
 

Reference to Public Reports Any person considering an investment in securities issued by CPSis urged to review the materials filed by CPS with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission"). Such materials may be foundby inquiring of the Commission's EDGAR search page (http://www.sec.gov/edgar/searchedgar/companysearch.html) using CPS's ticker symbol, which is "CPSS." Risk factors that should be considered are described under the caption "Forward-looking Statements" in Item 7 of CPS's annual report on Form 10-K, which report is on file with the Commission and available for review at the Commission's website. Such description of risk factors is incorporated herein by reference.
