Note to Employees of International Speedway Corporation

Dear ISC employees,

Today NASCAR announced that it has made a non-binding offer to purchase all outstanding shares of ISC not already owned by the controlling shareholders of NASCAR in hopes of bringing the two companies under one, privately-run operation. In a highly competitive sports and entertainment landscape, a more unified strategic approach is important to our future growth. We remain committed to the long-term growth and health of our sport and we believe our sport will be stronger because of this prospective merger. This is not something we have contemplated lightly. We believe such alignment of operations will provide our talented employees at both companies with better opportunities to grow and impact long term positive change for our sport.

During this process, each company will remain independent and will continue to operate as it has. More than anything, we believe we have the right management team and strong employees across both companies. We ask that you continue doing what you have all done so very well - working with great passion and energy to grow our sport for our millions of fans across the country and worldwide.

We plan to gather back with all of you at some point prior to year-end and we thank you for your continued good work as we head for an exciting finish to the 2018 season.

Best,

Jim France and Lesa France Kennedy
