Legal Disclaimer: The company explicitly states that the information furnished in Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is not subject to the liabilities of that section. Furthermore, the information is not incorporated by reference into filings under the Securities Act of 1933.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Review Exhibit 99.1 (Monthly Charge-off and Delinquency Statistics) to obtain the actual numerical data for November 2008, as the 8-K text only references the exhibit.
- Compare the November 2008 charge-off and delinquency rates against October 2008 and November 2007 figures to assess credit deterioration trends.
- Verify if subsequent filings (e.g., 10-Q or 10-K) incorporate these statistics into the official financial statements.
