Equiant Selected as Back-Up Servicer and Custodian for Westgate Resorts’

Recent Securitization of $275 Million in Timeshare Loans

Chandler, AZ, August 10, 2020 --(PR.com)-- Equiant, a Chandler, Arizona-based loan servicer and
financial technology provider, has been selected to provide back-up servicing and document custody
services for the July securitization of $275 million in timeshare loans by Westgate Resorts, an
Orlando-based timeshare resort developer and operator with 29 resorts in 10 states.

“We want to congratulate Westgate Resorts on completing this securitization in the face of a world
pandemic and volatile market conditions,” says Peter Moody, Equiant’s Chief Business Development
Officer. “This indicates the investor community’s faith in Westgate’s business model, so we are certainly
pleased that Westgate has repeatedly selected Equiant to support their successful and experienced team.”

“We are excited to utilize Equiant’s services as back-up servicer and custodian on our most recent 2020-1
Securitization,” says John Willman, Treasurer and Vice President of Mortgage Services for Westgate.
“This expands upon our longstanding relationship with Equiant as a back-up servicer and custodian on
our Bank Receivables Lines. We have full confidence they will provide outstanding service in this
expanded role.”

Equiant’s back-up servicing plans include customized solutions, ranging from “hot,” “warm” or “cold”
servicing, which denotes the time required for Equiant to assume the duties of a primary servicer.
Providing additional assurance to Equiant’s clients, DBRS Morningstar has reviewed the company’s
operations and deemed Equiant an acceptable back-up servicer and custodian for timeshare transactions
rated by DBRS Morningstar. Equiant has also achieved the Payment Card Industry Security Standards
Council’s highest level of certification: PCI Certification Level 1.

“At Equiant, we are committed to providing best in class services and technology to our clients,” Moody
says. “We are continually investing in our staff, technology and systems, which allows us to deliver
outstanding client support while providing a wide range of services and products at a compelling fee
structure.”
