RE:    Glass-Lewis Recommendations

I apologize that I have to send another note to you. I just received and reviewed the recommendations from Glass-Lewis. At least Glass-Lewis explains their voting recommendations. What they don’t say is that there was no insider special deal with Mr. Cashin or OEP Capital Advisors related to the acquisition of Voltyre-Prom. OEP was owned by JP Morgan Chase Bank when the Russian deal was done. At the time, the Russian tire plant was making a good profit. I personally traveled and visited the plant. Selling the equipment at auction may have generated more short-term revenue, but I believed at the time and still do today that this could be a profitable venture long-term.

Mr. Cashin, Mr. Cowger and Mr. Guinn are excellent members of the Titan International Board of Directors and for someone who doesn’t understand our business to say different is simply wrong. I take a great deal of pride in the people who serve on Titan’s Board. I don’t tell anyone how to invest their money, but I can tell you what the Board is doing, and you can see what happened in 2020, and where we are in 2021. ISS and Glass-Lewis should stick to advising companies that have revenue over $10 billion, because I don’t think they take the time to understand our business. I forgot to mention they have consultants who will guide us through this process for a fee.

Titan’s management and employees do an excellent job running and growing this business worldwide. I believe that to have someone stick their nose into how you should vote who has never been in a Titan factory or even understands what our products are is counterproductive to that growth. To make matters worse, Titan is having its best year in a long time. Look at the numbers, we believe our performance speaks for itself.
