Dear Mr. Walls:

It was such a pleasure to speak with you after your First Friday presentation. An internship with
Arkansas Capital Corporation sounds like a great opportunity. It sounds like a company at which
I can really contribute and learn.

I can offer extensive real-world experience to ACCG, having started my own company and
helped manage my family's resort business. In addition, my team won second place in
Ouachita's business plan competition.

Please consider me for an internship with Arkansas Capital Corporation. To discuss this
opportunity further, please contact me by email or call 817-371-3522.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Jeffery Neil Wacaster
