By Nissan North America, Inc.

In the news release, Nissan North America Announces January Sales, issued earlier today by Nissan North America, Inc. over PR Newswire, we are advised by the company that, under the INFINITI HIGHLIGHTS section, the first bullet should have read "Infiniti sales for January were 7,115 units, down from 8,644 a year ago, a decline of 17.7 percent" rather than "... a decline of 20.9 percent" as originally issued inadvertently. Complete, corrected release follows:
