Dear Shareholder:

You hold shares of United PanAm Financial Corp. (“UPFC”) through a broker, bank or other nominee and you recently received a proxy card for the UPFC September 24, 2008 annual meeting of shareholders. Due to an error, you received an incorrect proxy card . The proxy card did not include the correct names of the three candidates nominated for election to the UPFC board of directors.

We have, therefore, enclosed a corrected proxy card that lists the correct names of the three candidates nominated for election to the UPFC Board. Whether or not you have previously completed and returned a proxy card, we urge you to sign, date and return the enclosed corrected proxy card in the envelope provided. Alternatively, you may vote via the telephone or the internet following the procedures described by your broker or bank. If you have already voted via telephone or internet on the incorrect proxy card , you will need to resubmit your vote by mail, telephone or internet on the correct proxy card for it to be counted at the September 24, 2008 meeting.

Votes on the incorrect proxy card, including any votes made on the incorrect proxy card via telephone or the internet, will be disregarded for all purposes.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
