CARY, N.C. — Five new locations in five separate states were recently added to the
growing number of automobile dealerships throughout the country now
offering CarMark Certified Pre-Owned vehicles to consumers, announced
today by Bill Zadeits, manager of POADA, which owns the CarMark
Certified program.

The five new CarMark dealerships are Todd's Car Team, 3744 Annex Ave.,
Nashville, Tenn.; Bill Collins Ford, 4220 Bardstown Road, Louisville,
Ky.; Bernicker Auto Sales & Service, 317 Main St., Cornwall, N.Y.;
Route 23 Honda, 700 Route 23, Pompton Plains, N.J.; and the Southern
Hospitality Auto Group, 1248 S. Military Highway, Chesapeake, Va.

"These dealerships are outstanding additions to our CarMark Certified
family," said Zadeits. "Today's dealer is constantly looking for ways to
enhance the profitability of the used car department, and CarMark
Certified is providing the dealer the opportunity to expand vehicle
certification. That not only helps the dealer, but is an added benefit
and protection to the consumer.

"Of the five new CarMark Certified dealers we are announcing today,
three are franchise dealers and two are strong independent dealers. The
CarMark Certified program is uniquely positioned to appeal to both
dealer entities."

Walt Burns, CarMark Certified's national sales manager with the
program's national administrator, APCO/EasyCare, agreed, adding, "The
CarMark Certified program is bridging the gap between a manufacturer's
CPO program and 100,000 miles, the top limit for having a vehicle
certified by CarMark Certified. By filling that certification gap,
dealers throughout the country are extending the range of certified
vehicles they can offer.

"And for the independent dealer, CarMark Certified is bringing to their dealership a national certification program."

CarMark Certified was launched in 2010 and currently has affiliated
dealerships in 13 states. The CarMark Certified program is administered
nationally by APCO/EasyCare of Atlanta and supported locally by its
affiliated agent network.
