O Dear Sir or Madam: O fH lamwritingtoyoutomfixmymiofcampai^ participate in by my former employer Charles Christopher Brennan a resident of , NV. At the time of the request made by Charies Breniian to me IQeklenCimdifif to violate campaign election law I held an executive position titled National Director of Compliance company Dollar Loan Center, LLC of which he was the majority owner. On October 21*, 2008 1 received an email from our company president Bruce Cooey notifying me that a politician running fix* a congrtssional seat m me State of named Jon Porter would be visiting one of our stores in Las Vegas as well as our corporate office in Las Vegas where I winked from. This was not unusual as politicians have touted ow offices before and ft was my responsibility to make sure that the general appearance of the office and staff was clean and organized. At approximately 5pm on October 21* 2008 I received a call from Mir. Charles Brennan asking me to have horn myself and my wife write out checks from our persond bank accounts made payable to Jon Porter for Congress in the amount of $2300.00 (Two thousand three hundred doUan and no cents) and to bring the personal checks to the office with me the following morning. Charles Biennan then saki thai he would give me cash msa^ the checks to put back into our personal bank accounts. Mr. Brennan then added mat Us mom and dad and a bunch of other people were doing h as wsU. I wfisbom puzzled by the request and speechless as Charles fireman abruptly ended the call The nature of me request seemed to be somewhat "fishy" to me so 1 imrnedirtely consulted with a confidant about the request and asked for his advW and whether he thou^ tins was legal He said he warn' t sure and gave me no furthff • Page2 December 28, 2009 I called Charles Brennan back on my work issued cell phone | to his cell phone number | at approximatdy5:30pmPST on that SBHM day October told him that I was not comfortable in piirtidpating in his request because I thought it sc^n^ illegal because ifh wasn't I had access to company operating account checks and could write a check from the company account Mr. Brennan made it clear that he was aware at that point that there was a maximum amount "•* could be donated by an individual and tf"* writing a check from the Dollar Loan Center operating account was not an option. Charles Brennan then proceeded to say in a harsh and angry tone; "you're a fucking faggot, I'll just get sccieoooVelsetodoirandthenhiingupniephcfieonme. LSI The entire incident was extremely upsetting to me foe a number of obvious reasons. I went O home that evening and wrote out a memo detailing everything that had occurred hi case I 9 would somehow be terminated by Charles Brennan for not participating in the requested % inactivity.

I also noted that the company president of Dollar Loan Center, LLC Brace Gooey and his spouse Carla Gooey also contributed the maxinuim of $2300.00 each to never having donated to a congressional race previously in their lifetimes and even more suspiciously that they donated to a campaign in the State of Nevada despite being residents of South Dakota. Tins donation also was made cohicklentaMyodyafewdaysangtheiBQuest byChariesBnainanibrniyvvifeandItoactasMstrawd I al«« noted that Charles Hfrwt*" jQqo gave the maximum individual contribution of $2300.00 to the campaign fund of Jon Porter. O O I am attaching prhtt outs ftom the FEC webste O above. I have no further proof of the allegations but hcpe that a thoroiigh investigation vvill unveil the truth. No doubt Mr. Brennan will deny the allegations O)itBinedmmycx)niplairtbutareviewoftfac o phone records for the stated date of October 21, 2008 vvm support my daims of when the calls o OCCUllCu. I would appreciate that you take this request to conduct a full investigation seriously as Charles Brennan is only emboldened to commit other illegal activity so long as activities like

I declare under the penalty of perjury under the laws of the and the State of Florida that the foregoing is true and oon«c* to the best tf my knowledge. DATED this _$9_day of December, 2009.
