The registrant meets the conditions set forth in General Instructions I(1)(a) and (b) of Form 10-K as, among other things, all of the registrant’s equity securities are owned indirectly by Springleaf Holdings, Inc., which is a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and which has filed with the SEC on April 15, 2014 all of the material required to be filed pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) thereof and the registrant is therefore filing this Form 10-K with a reduced disclosure format, which omits the information otherwise required by Items 10, 11, 12 and 13 as permitted under General Instruction I(2)(c) on Form 10-K.
Explanatory Note
The purpose of this Amendment No. 1 to Springleaf Finance Corporation’s (the “Company”) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 (“Amendment No. 1”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 15, 2014 (the “Form 10-K”), is to furnish Schedule I in Item 15 of Part IV of the Form 10-K in accordance with Rule 12-04 of Regulation S-X. In addition, the Company is filing this Amendment No. 1 because it inadvertently omitted, from the certifications of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, which were filed as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2, respectively, to the Form 10-K, certain required language with respect to internal control over financial reporting. This amendment contains, as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2, certifications that contain the previously omitted language.
No other changes have been made to the Form 10-K. This Amendment No. 1 to the Form 10-K speaks as of the original filing date of the Form 10-K, does not reflect events that may have occurred subsequent to the original filing date, and does not modify or update in any way disclosures made in the original Form 10-K.

Guarantee Agreements
On December 30, 2013, Springleaf Holdings, Inc (“SHI”), the indirect parent of SFC, entered into Guaranty Agreements whereby it agreed to fully and unconditionally guarantee the payment of principal of, premium (if any), and interest on approximately $5.2 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes on a senior basis and $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of a junior subordinated debenture (collectively, the “notes”) on a junior subordinated basis issued by SFC. The notes consist of the following: 8.250% Senior Notes due 2023; 7.750% Senior Notes due 2021; 6.00% Senior Notes due 2020; a 60-year junior subordinated debenture; and all senior notes outstanding on December 30, 2013, issued pursuant to the Indenture dated as of May 1, 1999 (the “1999 Indenture”), between SFC and Wilmington Trust, National Association (the successor trustee to Citibank N.A.). As of December 30, 2013, approximately $3.9 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes were outstanding under the 1999 Indenture. The 60-year junior subordinated debenture underlies the trust preferred securities sold by a trust sponsored by SFC. On December 30, 2013, SHI entered into a Trust Guaranty Agreement whereby it agreed to fully and unconditionally guarantee the related payment obligations under the trust preferred securities.
4. Subsidiary Debt Guarantee
One SFC subsidiary is required to maintain a $1.0 million direct committed line of credit to comply with state regulations. SFC guarantees any borrowings under this line of credit. The subsidiary has not borrowed under this line of credit.
One SFC subsidiary is required to maintain a $100,000 direct committed line of credit to comply with state regulations. The subsidiary has not borrowed under this line of credit.

5. Prior Period Revisions
In preparing the annual consolidated financial statements of SFC and its subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2013, we identified certain out-of-period errors. In addition to these errors, we previously recorded and disclosed out-of-period adjustments in prior reporting periods when the errors were discovered. As a result, we revised all previously reported periods included in the consolidated financial statements of SFC and its subsidiaries. The effect of these revisions decreased net loss by $1.6 million in 2012 and increased net loss by $19.9 million in 2011. At September 30, 2013, the cumulative effect of these revisions decreased shareholder’s equity by $20.7 million, decreased total consolidated assets by $17.6 million, and increased total consolidated liabilities by $3.1 million. For further information on these revisions, please refer to Note 25 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in SFC’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
The errors noted above also had an impact on SFC’s condensed financial statements which were issued for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. In addition to the errors noted above, additional errors specific to the parent only condensed financial statements were also identified. These errors related to the failure to appropriately account for purchase accounting adjustments, classification errors and treatment of intercompany transactions between the parent and subsidiaries.
As a result, we have revised all previously reported periods included in this report. We have corrected the errors identified in the fourth quarter of 2013 and have included these corrections in the appropriate prior periods. Similarly, we have reversed all out-of period adjustments previously recorded and disclosed, and have included the adjustments in the appropriate periods. After evaluating the quantitative and qualitative aspects of these corrections, we have determined that our previous annual condensed financial statements were not materially misstated.
