Correction: Rifco's Securitization Facility with Bank West Expires

Red Deer, Alberta. January 22, 2014; Rifco Inc. (TSXV: RFC) is announcing that it has not renewed its Bank West securitization facility. The facility was originally established in August 2009 and had a $30M revolving facility limit. Rifco has active securitization facilities with 3 other financial institutions.

On December 23, 2010, Bank West, a subsidiary of Western Financial Group, was purchased by Desjardins Financial Group. Rifco has not utilized the Bank West facility since October of 2012. Rifco's utilization of the facility has dropped from 92% to 48% in the last year.

As per the Master agreement signed on August 31, 2009, Rifco will continue to administer the remaining $14.3M auto loan portfolio. The portfolio balance will naturally reduce as borrower payments are made over the coming years.
