Inc. (the “Company”) has favorably amended certain stock option and restricted
stock awards (as set forth below) granted to you under the Amended and Restated
NetSpend Holdings, Inc. 2004 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”). This amendment
generally provides that any unvested portion of the stock options and restricted
stock awards to which this amendment applies will vest in full if your
employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause or if you
terminate your employment for Good Reason (as defined in your employment
agreement, or in the applicable award agreement if you are not a party to an
employment agreement) in either case within the thirty-day period prior to a
Change in Control, if it is reasonably demonstrated that such termination was at
the request of a third party that has taken steps to effect a Change in Control
or otherwise arose in connection with or anticipation of a Change in Control, it
being agreed that termination of your employment pursuant to section 6.6(g) of
the Agreement and Plan of Merger to be entered into among Total System Services,
Inc, a Georgia corporation, General Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and
the Company shall result in such vesting without any required demonstration.

the Plan and the amended provisions as set forth herein, the amended provisions
shall govern.

employment pursuant to section 6.6(g) of the Agreement and Plan of Merger to be
entered into among Total System Services, Inc, a Georgia corporation, General
