NAPA, Calif. - AUL Corp., America's largest national provider of used-car service contracts announces a 20-year record result in three key metric areas, suggesting an upturn in its industry and in the American economy in general.

The findings are based on a consistent and sustained increase in the following 3 areas:

• the number of new and used car dealerships signed to market AUL Corp.'s Vehicle Service Contracts

• the number of Agents committed to making AUL's VSCs their key growth lever

• the number of new and used car dealers that sold AUL's VSCs in the last 12 months.

According to Luis Nieves, AUL's President, CEO and Founder, record performance in these 3 areas, at this time, validates AUL's 20 year focus on customer relationships, adequate premium, outstanding claims handling, and common sense underwriting.
