Commencement Date until December 31, 2016 or such later date as may be mutually agreed to by Mr. Dunn and the Company (the &#147;<U>Termination Date</U>&#148;), Mr. Dunn will provide transition services to the Company, including working with the CEO
on executive transition matters and other duties and responsibilities established by the Board consistent with the position of Executive Chairman. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the Employment Agreement dated January 12, 2015 between the Company and Mr. Dunn (the &#147;<U>Prior Agreement</U>&#148;)
will terminate, the rights and obligations under the Prior Agreement will terminate, and Mr. Dunn agrees to waive and release any rights or claims related to the Prior Agreement, except as otherwise set forth in the Letter Agreement. Mr. Dunn will
be paid a monthly salary of $100,000 and will remain eligible to receive (1) an &#147;annual bonus&#148; for 2016 and (2) a &#147;completion bonus&#148; (each as defined in the Prior Agreement) in an amount up to $500,000, subject to the discretion
of the Compensation Committee of the Board and his continued employment with the Company through December 31, 2016. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, while an employee, the Company will also continue to provide Mr.&nbsp;Dunn with benefits generally
available to its other employees, which may include medical and retirement plans. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the Company and Mr. Dunn

Dunn&#146;s employment or service will be deemed to continue in effect as long as he is an employee of or in service to the Company, and any transition from employee to non-employee director will not be deemed a termination under such Stock Plans
and option agreements. </P>

Furthermore, for purposes of the performance-contingent restricted stock unit and cash-settled performance share/unit awards granted under the 2015 Plan, such awards will continue to vest only
while Mr. Dunn remains an employee of the Company through the Termination Date.</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If Mr. Dunn remains employed by the Company through November 24, 2016, and
is subsequently terminated by the Company for a reason other than for &#147;cause&#148; (as defined under the applicable Stock Plan) after November 24, 2016, then the Compensation Committee will agree to treat such termination as a
&#147;retirement&#148; and a &#147;qualifying termination&#148; under the terms of the applicable Stock Plan. Furthermore, if the Company terminates Mr. Dunn&#146;s employment for a reason other than for &#147;cause&#148; (as defined under the
applicable Stock Plan) prior to November 24, 2016, then the Compensation Committee will agree to treat such termination as a &#147;retirement&#148; and a &#147;qualifying termination&#148; under the terms of the applicable Stock Plan. Following the
Termination Date, Mr. Dunn will continue to serve as a member of the Board in a non-employee capacity, subject to nomination for re-election by the Board and continued election by the Company&#146;s stockholders. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, Mr. Dunn will remain subject to the restrictive covenants contained in the Prior Agreement, except as otherwise set forth in

application of the provisions of Section&nbsp;304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, Section&nbsp;954 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or other applicable laws, rules or regulations, but, in each case for clauses

assertion, and in the case of non-willful behavior under clauses (i), (iii), (iv)&nbsp;or (vi), Executive has failed to cure within 30&nbsp;days of written notice to Executive, (2)&nbsp;such written notice is provided to Executive a reasonable time
before the Board meets to consider any possible termination for Cause, (3)&nbsp;at or prior to the meeting of the Board to consider the matters described in the written notice, an opportunity is provided to Executive and his counsel to be heard
before the Board with respect to the matters described in the written notice, (4)&nbsp;any resolution or other Board action held with respect to any deliberation regarding or decision to terminate Executive for Cause is duly adopted by a vote of a
majority of the entire Board of the Corporation at a meeting of the Board called and held and (5)&nbsp;Executive is promptly provided with a copy of the resolution or other corporate action taken with respect to such termination. No act or failure
to act by Executive shall be considered willful unless done or omitted to be done by him not in good faith and without reasonable belief that his action or omission was in the best interests of the Corporation. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
Section&nbsp;1.1(h), &#147;Cause&#148; will not be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of Executive&#146;s failure to follow any Corporation policy or any Corporation instruction to Executive that would permit Executive to terminate this
Agreement under Section&nbsp;2.7(a) because such policy or instruction constitutes Good Reason. </P>

geographic area restriction and/or related aspects is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to exceed the maximum restrictiveness such court deems reasonable and enforceable, then it is the express desire and intent of both the Corporation and
Executive that such provision not be rendered invalid thereby, but rather that the duration, geographic area, scope, or nature of the restriction be deemed reduced or modified to the extent necessary to render such provision reasonable, valid and

announced today that its Board of Directors has appointed Peter R. Knitzer to become Chief Executive Officer, effective August 1, 2016. As part of Regional&#146;s executive succession plan, also effective August 1, 2016, current CEO Michael R. Dunn
will transition to Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors and current Chairman Alvaro G. de Molina will become Lead Independent Director. Mr. Dunn will work with Mr. Knitzer to ensure a smooth and orderly transition. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;Since taking over the CEO role in October 2014, I am proud of the many accomplishments our team has achieved,&#148; said Mr. Dunn. &#147;With the
company firmly on the right track, I look forward to beginning the next chapter of my life and spending more time with my family. At the same time, while I will no longer be leading Regional&#146;s day-to-day operations, I am excited to remain
involved in advising and determining Regional&#146;s long-term strategic direction.&#148; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;We are greatly appreciative of Mike stepping in and
leading Regional over the past couple of years, growing the company&#146;s portfolio and credit functions, and helping build the foundation toward a significantly brighter long-term future,&#148; said Mr. de Molina. &#147;After a comprehensive
search process, we determined that Peter was the optimal choice to take over the role of CEO given his considerable depth of consumer financial services experience, knowledge, and leadership. Peter is already immersing himself in Regional&#146;s
operations and meeting our team. We expect a smooth, orderly transition to Peter becoming CEO, with him hitting the ground running on August 1<SUP STYLE="font-size:85%; vertical-align:top">st</SUP> and ultimately leading Regional through its next
phase of growth.&#148; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Mr. Dunn will remain with Regional as its Executive Chairman on a full-time basis through the end of 2016, after which Mr. de
Molina will return to the role of Chairman while Mr. Dunn remains on the Board of Directors. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;I am very excited to become CEO of Regional, and I
want to thank the Board for the incredible opportunity to lead this company and our talented team into a new era of growth,&#148; said Mr. Knitzer. &#147;I also want to thank Mike for the excellent job he&#146;s done laying the groundwork over the
last couple of years for Regional to succeed in the long term. While continuing on the path on which Mike and the Regional team have placed the company, we plan to enhance our growth through the expanded use of technology and additional
diversification of our origination channels, while maintaining the focus on our core product strategy.&#148; </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Regional Management Corp. (NYSE: RM) is a diversified specialty consumer finance company providing a broad array of loan products primarily to customers with
limited access to consumer credit from banks, thrifts, credit card companies and other traditional lenders. Regional Management began operations in 1987 with four branches in South Carolina and has since expanded its branch network across South
Carolina, Texas, North Carolina, Tennessee, Alabama, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Georgia and Virginia. Each of its loan products is structured on a fixed rate, fixed term basis with fully amortizing equal monthly installment payments and is repayable at
any time without penalty. Regional Management&#146;s loans are sourced through its multiple channel platform, including in its branches, through direct mail campaigns, independent and franchise automobile dealerships, online credit application
networks, retailers and its consumer website. For more information, please visit <U>http://www.RegionalManagement.com</U>. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Contact: </B></P>
