To Our Clients:
Enclosed for your consideration is a prospectus dated , 2004 (as the same may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Prospectus”) and the accompanying Letter of Transmittal (which together constitute the “Exchange Offer”) relating to the offer by Viasystems, Inc. to exchange an aggregate principal amount of up to $200,000,000 of its 10.50% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2011 (the “Exchange Notes”), which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), for a like principal amount of its outstanding 10.50% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2011 (the “Outstanding Notes”). Both the Exchange Notes and the Outstanding Notes are guaranteed on an unsecured, subordinated basis by Viasystems Technologies Corp., L.L.C., Viasystems International, Inc., Viasystems Milwaukee, Inc., Wire Harness Industries, Inc. and Wirekraft Industries, LLC. As set forth in the Prospectus, the terms of the Exchange Notes are identical in all material respects to the Outstanding Notes, except that the Exchange Notes have been registered under the Securities Act and therefore (1) will not be subject to certain restrictions on their transfer, (2) will not be entitled to registration rights and (3) will not contain provisions providing for an increase in the interest rate thereon under the circumstances set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement described in the Prospectus. Outstanding Notes may be tendered in a principal amount of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000.
We are forwarding the enclosed material to you as the beneficial owner of Outstanding Notes held by us for your account or benefit but not registered in your name. Only we may tender Outstanding Notes in the Exchange Offer as the registered holder, if you so instruct us. Therefore, Viasystems, Inc. urges beneficial owners of Outstanding Notes registered in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee to contact such holder promptly if they wish to exchange Outstanding Notes in the Exchange Offer.
Accordingly, we request instructions as to whether you wish us to exchange any or all Outstanding Notes held by us for your account or benefit pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Prospectus and Letter of Transmittal. We urge you to read carefully the Prospectus and Letter of Transmittal before instructing us to exchange your Outstanding Notes.
You should forward instructions to us as promptly as possible in order to permit us to exchange Outstanding Notes on your behalf before the Exchange Offer expires at 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on , unless extended. A tender of Outstanding Notes may be withdrawn at any time prior to the Expiration Date, which means 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on or the latest time to which the Exchange Offer is extended.
