NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - July 12, 2010) - Sparta Commercial Services, Inc. (OTCBB: [ SRCO ]) today announced that St. Pauls, NC has become the latest municipality to join Sparta's Municipal Lease Program with the acquisition of new cruisers for its police department. Sparta also announced that Mt. Gilead, NC has expanded its police cruiser fleet, adding to its current Municipal Lease arrangement with the Company. All of the new cruisers are Dodge Chargers, acquired through Ilderton Dodge, a local dealer.

According to Sparta, the continuing growth of its Municipal Lease Program reflects a desire among an increasing number of municipalities across the United States to lower their annual capital outlays at a time when they are challenged by decreasing revenues, but still require essential equipment for critical services. Sparta's Municipal Lease Program offers municipalities the opportunity to conserve capital within their annual budgets, since leasing the necessary equipment allows for payment to be made over time, instead of having to pay the entire cost upfront.

Shawn Walker, Mt. Gilead Chief of Police, commented on the new transaction with Sparta, saying, "We were extremely pleased with the last experience we had with Sparta, which is why the decision to use their Municipal Leasing Program again was so easy. Their attention to detail, outstanding communications, and overall professionalism, in addition to the cost savings, is everything we could hope for."

Amy Hill, Fleet Sales Manager at Ilderton Dodge, also commented, "The people in Sparta's Municipal Lease department are simply great to work with. They handle this kind of leasing arrangement with exceptional knowledge about the dealer's role, and I couldn't be more impressed with the quality of their involvement."

To sum up, Anthony Havens, Sparta's CEO, said, "As we bring on an ever-increasing number of cities, states, and towns to our Municipal Lease Program, our commitment to the principle of providing a more cost-effective way for municipalities to acquire the essential equipment they must have is continually reinforced. We understand the economic difficulties governmental agencies are facing, and whenever we can help with our Municipal Lease Program, we're particularly pleased."
