Wilmington Trust Company Selects Shaw for RETAIL, CREDITSTREAM, & DEALER FLOOR PLAN Products

---

HOUSTON (July 11, 2002) - Wilmington Trust Company, a Shaw COMMERCIAL client since 1990, recently purchased RETAIL, CREDITSTREAM, and DEALER FLOOR PLAN.

The bank initiated a feasibility study to find a system to replace its aging Installment Loan and Dealer Floor Plan Products. Joanne Quinn, Vice President at Wilmington Trust, said they sought a system that would meet the following criteria: meet and/or exceed their business requirements allow them to be proactive in offering products to the market offer flexibility in product design provide the opportunity to gain operating efficiencies

"We researched six different vendors and ultimately selected Shaw, as their software met virtually all our requirements. We also had a longstanding, positive relationship with Shaw for our Commercial products," Quinn said.

"Although we looked at Shaw's IL/2000 product many years ago, this time around we saw significant improvements with the addition of CREDITSTREAM and the enhancements in the Shaw RETAIL 4.4 software," she added. "We also selected DEALER WORKBENCH and are pleased to be able to offer our Dealer Floor Plan clients web-enabled access to their Floor Plan accounts."

Wilmington Trust will have one common platform supporting all lending products for Commercial, Consumer, and Floor Plan.

Quinn said, "We look forward to meeting our specific objectives: the generation of increased fee and interest income, improved compliance tracking and risk management tools, and improved reporting capabilities for both the Consumer and Dealer Floor Plan business. We are excited about the Shaw solution and look forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship."

Wilmington Trust is already a premier user of CREDITSTREAM with COMMERCIAL. The product helped them bridge the gap between their front-end loan documentation preparation system and their back-end loan servicing system.

Wilmington Trust, founded in 1903, is the leading banking company in Delaware, where it is based. Its principal focus is asset management and trust services.

Top SBA Lenders Use Shaw's COMMERCIAL System

---

HOUSTON (April 10, 2002) - Citizens Bank, Zions Bank, and UPS Capital Business Credit are all leading Small Business Administration (SBA) lenders, and they each use Shaw Systems' COMMERCIAL system to process loans.

Banks use SBA loans to enhance their ability to provide financing for U.S. companies. SBA backs each loan with a guarantee of 50% to 90% of the loan amount. Borrowers use personal or business collateral to secure the loan. Finally, the lender administers the loan by establishing the term and managing the loan over its lifetime.

UPS Capital Business Credit is the nation's eighth-largest originator of SBA-guaranteed loans for the fiscal year 2001, based on total dollars transacted. According to Cindy Bradley, head of UPS Capital Business Credit's loan servicing unit, "The date of payment loan functionality in Shaw far surpasses the capabilities of our previous commercial loan system."

Citizens Financial Group was named the SBA "New England Regional Lender of the Year" for fiscal year 2001. They were also named #1 SBA lender in Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire.

Zions Bancorporation is the nation's eighth largest provider of SBA-backed 7(a) loans. It also ranked as the leading provider of SBA loans in Utah. Additionally, Nevada State Bank, which is a subsidiary of Zions, is the #1 originator of SBA loans in Nevada.

Shaw's SBA loan processing efficiently handles fixed and variable rates; multiple types of payments including prepayments, past due, and short payments; a variety of fees; and SBA-specific reporting.

Shaw's Web-Based DEALER WORKBENCH Helps Wells Fargo Auto Finance

---

HOUSTON (Jan. 14, 2002) - Wells Fargo Auto Finance Inc. (WFAFI) has increased the efficiency of its dealer customer service functions by implementing Shaw's DEALER WORKBENCH web-based product.

WFAFI, a Shaw Systems client for more than ten years, came to Shaw with a problem: their dealer relationship management process was inefficient and expensive. The dealer customers would call or fax instructions to add and pay off vehicles or transfer funds, requiring manual assistance from WFAFI customer service representatives.

Shaw and WFAFI worked together to come up with a solution: create a business-to-business web site for dealer customers to perform account management functions, freeing up resources on both sides of the relationship.

The new Dealer Customer Service Site allows authorized dealers to access and perform a wide range of system functions, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Dealers can easily add or pay off a vehicle and check their trial balance reports to keep better control of their inventory. Dealers can also apply payments and curtailments to their floor plan lines. Other features include access to forms and answers to frequently asked questions. This dealer-centric web site gives WFAFI an advantage over their competition among the dealers.

Shaw Systems' web-based product initiative allows for flexibility in the architecture, whether starting from scratch or working with a bank's existing product structure. In addition to the DEALER WORKBENCH, Shaw also offers an OPERATIONS WORKBENCH that provides internal access to Shaw's applications by using a standard Internet browser. OPERATIONS WORKBENCH can be used for loan/lease operations, collections, customer service, and many more functions.

Nissan Motor Acceptance Corporation Implements Shaw Systems' Floor Plan Module

---

HOUSTON (Oct. 26, 2000) - Nissan Motor Acceptance Corporation's (NMAC) implementation of Shaw Systems' Floor Plan application has resulted in enhanced business opportunities for the financial services company.

Before selecting Shaw's Floor Plan module, NMAC's floor plan processing had no reporting features and was severely limiting the company's opportunities for industry growth. In addition, the software provider's support was poor.

NMAC's implementation of the Shaw Floor Plan application system has resulted in expanded curtailment and fee opportunities; enhanced risk management, including VIN cross editing capabilities, automatic loan default numbering, and overline validation; multiple common ownership dealers linked together; and many more features.

Shaw's Floor Plan application helps grow wholesale business and improve operational efficiency. Many unique credit line types and other products can be created, and fully functional mega dealer processing is available.

Productivity is improved via the Simplified Input process for new unit setup. Users may default setup values based on unit type, including new, used, demo, etc. Automatic loan number assignment will also expedite the process. Override facilities are provided when a new unit amount exceeds the dealer or mega dealer's available credit. Many system features are in place to help stay in compliance with lending policies.
