Internal Engagements – Best Practices The following should act as high-level guidance regarding specific internal interaction. Connect with your leader for additional guidance, where needed.

Referrals

Buy - Sells

Used primarily for new business and in some cases upsell opportunities depending on brand (DTK, Xtime, Vin, DDC)

• The current buy-sell process works well and is being kept “as is” for the various teams

PMs are to engage with RSS or EDP on accounts/client items, progress, issues

• Top line priority is to maintain client experience. Example: if the purchased account has rep coverage today, it needs rep coverage after being purchased

For groups where multiple local PMs are involved, a PM must be identified (single point of contact) to advise the client corporate structure of CAI actions happening locally

• If a dealer is within a client group of dealers, the dealer will be added to test Ops PM if the PM has other stores within the test group

Fluent “open line of communication” must be maintained so RSS and EDP leaders understand plans of actions and RoE for clients

Escalation path for referral credit: April Hightower

Escalation path for technical issues. First line for request is a Service now ticket. If no resolution, escalate to Stephanie Keryc or Joe Martin as depicted below. 3 Day SLA 1.

COMPENSATION ADJUSTMENTS AND INQUIRIES


CONFIDENTIAL CONFIDENTIAL | FOR DISCUSSION

Commissions Adjustments and Inquiries Commissions Adjustments & Inquiries Process

Commissions Cycle Timeline and Process

Submit requests via a Service Now (SNOW) ticket: CAI Sales Support Intake Form

*Calendar of deadlines sent out each month to align with that month’s payroll deadlines

“How can we help you today?”, select “Commissions Issues/Inquiries”

*Business Unit = Legacy Retail

**Commissions team will notify ICs when Prelims and Finals are ready to review in Incent.

**For efficiency, please submit 1 ticket per round of adjustments for your entire team *It’s not necessary to put a lot of details in the “additional details” section if everything is in the adjustments form supplied by the commissions team. Sample form: LINK TO BE ADDED **The bottom right corner of the form has an “Add attachments” link to attach the adjustments form or any other evidence you need (emails, screenshots, etc.)

*Round 1 for Prelims, Round 2 for Finals and a “Last Chance” deadline. **Be aware that when data is being refreshed in Incent, it will often be removed and uploaded again with the revised results. We advise against reviewing results after the adjustments deadlines until you receive notification that results are ready to review. Duplicate inquiries slow down the process.

Common Adjustment Types •

Out of Business dealers (NBA or Retention relief, as applicable)

Buy/Sells (NBA or Retention relief, as applicable)

Missing NBA due to unassigned account

Churn or downsell NBA belongs to prior owner due to recent account transfer

vAuto Price Null Requests Need the following information for Support to set up correct codes. Is this for: New, Used or Both Is this for: List Price, Other Price or Both

What is the Start Date What is the End Date Are they syndicating with vAuto?

NOTE: Price Nulls should start and end Monday-Friday during normal business hours. While we can remove the prices for the vehicles that fit the criteria above, we are unable to provide guarantees that the prices will be completely removed from the web. Therefore, if we were to proceed with nulling the prices in vAuto, we recommend following up with your third-party vendors to ensure the successful completion of the price null.


CONFIDENTIAL CONFIDENTIAL | FOR DISCUSSION

vAuto Export/Feed Setups/Photo feed issues Utilize the Syndication Summary page and see if there are exports already in place for the needed vendor. If a new feed is needed, provide the following information: Name of the 3rd party vendor Export just Used, just New, or Both Who is the contact at the dealership to provide authorization Note: almost all vendors will need written authorization from the dealership to change inventory and/or photo sources. We can email the vendor, but the dealer will need to REPLY ALL with their authorization.

vAuto Missing Trim/Series in Conquest •

Typically, this will be a decode issue

Case escalated to Level 3

Meaning we don’t have enough data to properly decode the VIN all the way up to the correct series

Level 3 research current data points in our DBs

Dealers can always manually enter it in vAuto if it’s needed immediately

Level 3 contacts Autodata with provided information

Wait for Autodata to adjust on their end and push us new files

vAuto runs a weekly all data refresh process, must wait for this to complete before any changes are seen

Can be timing issues

Support is powerless to speed up this process

Support decode case process •

What we need: •

Provide us the full VIN(s)

Provide us what the series or other attribute is supposed to be

Helps if there is an accompanying build sheet from the dealer

vAuto Customer Issues Conquest Mass Realignment

Add Listing Logic / Cost fields to Appraisals

A mass re-alignment can be done for the entire account if the dealer requests.

• App Request case

Keep in mind this can be done for the whole account and not just certain makes, model, etc. Also, this process is not reversible.

If dealer is okay with this, they must submit a written request via Support box and a case must be created. Maybe added to PM Center in the future.

vAuto Pending Prices Understanding this page

| FOR DISCUSSION Pending Price Change issuesCONFIDENTIAL CONFIDENTIAL • Know how to read the page • Just because there are vehicles in the report doesn’t mean something is broken • Remember that by default only Retail and Published vehicles get their data exported to 3rd party site vendors • • •

• •

The dealer changed the price to $57,998 The account is setup to look at AutoTrader as the Source Site The vehicle will remain on this site, until we see $57,998 on AutoTrader We sent the price update to ADP (CDK/Sincro/Cobalt) successfully The price needs to get from there to AutoTrader

Use the VIN Diagnose page to find the vehicle on AutoTrader or any other site we see it

• Can easily see that CDK(Cobalt) has the correct price on their site. • But there is NO price seen on AutoTrader. • All evidence tells us then there is some issue between their Syndication provider, CDK and AutoTrader. • Dealer can resolve the issue by contacting CDK support and finding out why AutoTrader is not updating.
