Competition
The car wash industry is highly competitive. Competition is based primarily on location, facilities, customer service, available services and rates. The Company's competitors may have significantly greater financial and operating resources than the Company. The Company faces competition from sources outside the car wash industry, such as gas stations, that offer automated car wash services. Because barriers to entry in the general car wash industry are relatively low, competition may arise from new sources not currently competing with the Company.

Use of Proceeds
The proceeds from the proposed offering will be used to fund its acquisition strategy, for capital expenditures for existing car wash locations, to repay indebtedness and for working capital and for general corporate purposes.
