INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT
     This Amendment No. 4 relates to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO originally filed by Washington Mutual, Inc. (“Washington Mutual”) and New American Capital, Inc. (the “Company”) on October 5, 2005 (as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on October 14, 2005, Amendment No. 2 filed on October 21, 2005 and Amendment No. 3 filed on November 8, 2005, the “Schedule TO”) as required by the Indenture, dated as of May 1, 1999, between Providian Financial Corporation (“Providian”) and J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association, as the successor trustee to Bank One Trust Company, N.A. and The First National Bank of Chicago, as supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of February 15, 2001 and as further supplemented by the Fifth Supplemental Indenture dated October 1, 2005 (the “Indenture”) governing the Company’s Zero Coupon Convertible Notes due February 15, 2021 (the “Notes”).
     The Company filed the Schedule TO in connection with the right of each holder of Notes to sell to the Company, and the obligation of the Company to purchase from each holder who exercises this right, the Notes pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Notice of Change of Control and Offer to Purchase dated October 5, 2005 (the “Offer to Purchase”) filed herewith as Exhibit (a)(1)(A), as it may be amended or supplemented, the Indenture and the Notes (the “Offer”). A Change of Control (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to Providian occurred on October 1, 2005 when Providian merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”). In connection with the Merger, the Company assumed all of the obligations under the Notes and the Indenture, including the obligation to make the Offer, and Washington Mutual fully and unconditionally guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Notes and the Indenture.
     This Amendment No. 4 is being filed by the Company and amends and supplements certain provisions of the Schedule TO to the extent set forth herein.
     The Schedule TO as amended and supplemented by this Amendment No. 4 is intended to satisfy the reporting requirements of Rule 13e-4(c)(2), (3) and (4) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Item 4. Terms of the Transaction.
     Item 4 of the Schedule TO is amended and supplemented by the following:
     The Offer expired at 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on Monday, November 21, 2005. Based on information provided to the Company by the Trustee, $817,679,000 aggregate principal amount at maturity of Notes were validly tendered pursuant to the Offer and not withdrawn prior to its expiration, all of which were accepted for payment by the Company at an aggregate purchase price of $447,334,928.
