Explanation of Responses:
# End of month ownership is based on 4/30/99 ownership ending balance of
138,000 shares (as previously reported on an earlier Form 4) of UGLY Common
Stock plus 20,000 purchased on or about 5/18/99 (138,000 + 20,000 =
158,000). Mr. Garcia disclaims beneficial ownership of all shares
owned/held by Verde. This form is being filed early for 5/99 changes. If
there is a further change in beneficial ownership by Mr. Garcia during this
month, he will file an amendment to this Form 4.
* These 20,000 shares of Common Stock of UGLY were acquired on or about
5/18/99 by Verde Investments, Inc. ("Verde") at a purchase price of $7.0625
per share. The Reporting Person is the president and sole shareholder of
Verde. Verde is an affiliate of the Issuer.
& These shares of Common Stock of UGLY are owned by the Garcia Family
Foundation, Inc. ("GFF"). GFF is an Arizona nonprofit corporation that has
the right to receive dividends from, or proceeds for the sale of, the
136,500 shares of Common Stock. The Reporting Person/Mr. Garcia has no
right to receive dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, the 136,500
shares. Mr. Garcia is the president and a director of GFF and shares the
power to direct the vote and power to direct the disposition of these
shares held by GFF. Mr. Garcia disclaims beneficial ownership of these
shares held by GFF.
