Miramontes, Lead Independent Director of Oportun. &#8220;Doug&#8217;s deep expertise in consumer credit, financial services, and scaling businesses makes him the ideal leader to build on Oportun&#8217;s momentum. He has a proven track record of delivering sustainable results through operational rigor, disciplined credit management, and customer-centered innovation, all of which he will bring to bear as he leads Oportun into our next phase of growth and profitability.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Mr. Bland brings over 30 years of experience in building and leading consumer financial services businesses from high-growth startups to global enterprises. He currently serves on the boards of directors of WebBank, a national issuer of consumer and small business credit products, and Creditly, a fintech platform applying artificial intelligence to financial wellness. Concurrent with joining Oportun and its Board, Mr. Bland will step down from the board of WebBank.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Mr. Bland previously spent nearly seven years in senior leadership roles at PayPal, most recently as Senior Vice President and General Manager of its Consumer Business, where he led a global portfolio spanning digital wallets, peer-to-peer payments, buy-now-pay-later, consumer and small business credit, and Venmo. In that role, he oversaw the end-to-end strategy for PayPal\u2019s global consumer ecosystem, driving strategic and operational unification across a highly distributed organization to improve profitability, customer engagement, and cost efficiency. Mr. Bland led PayPal\u2019s Global Credit business, which included lines of credit, unsecured revolving products, pay-in-4 solutions and installment loans to consumers, while consistently delivering strong risk-adjusted returns across a complex enterprise and multi-jurisdictional regulatory environment. Before PayPal, he served as President &amp; COO of Swift Financial, a small business lender, where he built the credit, compliance, and operational infrastructure that enabled rapid and responsible portfolio growth. Mr. Bland co-led Swift Financial through its acquisition by PayPal in 2017.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Earlier in his career, Mr. Bland spent more than a decade at Bank of America as Senior Vice President, Small Business Products &amp; Risk, where he led credit strategy and product management across one of the largest small business lending portfolios in the United States, including through the 2008 financial crisis. Prior to that, he held leadership roles with increasing responsibility across Stephens Inc., SunTrust, and Textron Financial, where he rose to Division President before leading the divestiture of the business to MBNA.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">&#8220;Oportun has built something genuinely differentiated \u2014 a technology-driven platform with a clear mission, and proven ability to responsibly improve the financial lives of people who are too often overlooked by traditional lenders,&#8221; said Doug Bland. &#8220;I am honored to join Oportun at a pivotal moment in its history and look forward to partnering with the Company\u2019s talented team and the Board to strengthen its foundation, deepen member relationships, and create long-term value for shareholders.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>About Oportun<\/strong>\u00a0<br \/>Oportun (Nasdaq: OPRT) is a mission-driven financial services company that puts its members&#8217; financial goals within reach.
