been effectively registered under the Securities Act.  The Employee hereby
represents and warrants that he is acquiring the shares for his own account, for
investment, and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, the

time. The Employee represents and warrants that the Employee (1) has been

and risks of the receipt of the shares, (2) has had the opportunity to ask

been answered to its satisfaction, (3) has been given the opportunity to obtain
any additional information it deems necessary to verify the accuracy of any

informed investment decision relating thereto and (5) is an “accredited
investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under
the Securities Act.  The Employee specifically acknowledges and agrees that any
sales of the shares shall be made in accordance with the requirements of the
Securities Act, in a transaction as to which the Company shall have received an
opinion of counsel satisfactory to it confirming such compliance.

(d)           The Employee shall be bound by the provisions of the following
legends which shall be endorsed upon the certificate evidencing the shares
issued:

“The shares represented by this certificate have been taken for investment and
they may not be sold or otherwise transferred by any person, including a
pledgee, unless (1) either (a) a Registration Statement with respect to such
shares shall be effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or (b)
the Company shall have received an opinion of counsel satisfactory to it that an
exemption from registration under such Act is then available, and (2) there
shall have been compliance with all applicable state securities laws.”

“THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN QUALIFIED UNDER THE CALIFORNIA CORPORATE
SECURITIES LAW OF 1968, AS AMENDED (“CSL”), AND ARE ALSO RESTRICTED UNDER THE
PROVISIONS OF THAT LAW.  THESE SECURITIES MUST BE HELD INDEFINITELY UNLESS THEY
ARE SUBSEQUENTLY QUALIFIED UNDER THE CSL OR ARE OTHERWISE EXEMPT FROM
QUALIFICATION UNDER THAT LAW.”

(e)           The Company shall reasonably cooperate with Employee, at the
request of Employee, in connection with removing restrictive legends from shares
of common stock of Mandalay now held or hereafter acquired by Employee under

sole cost, arrange for one or more opinions of counsel if necessary to remove
the legends.

                                           (f)           Pay Employee’s and his
eligible covered dependents’ COBRA continuation insurance coverage premiums for
six (6) months following the Separation Date (the “Benefits”).

referenced herein in Paragraph 4, without the prior written consent of the
Company. The Company shall not be required to transfer any of the Employee’s
shares on its books which shall have been sold, assigned or otherwise
transferred in violation of this Paragraph 5, or to treat as the owner of such
shares, or to accord the right to vote as such owner or to pay dividends to, any
person or organization to which any such shares shall have been so sold,
assigned or otherwise transferred, in violation of this Paragraph 5.

“believe” and statements in the future tense are forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that
could cause actual events or actual future results to differ materially from the
expectations set forth in the forward-looking statements. Some of the factors
which could cause the Company’s results to differ materially from the
expectations include the following: consumer demand for the Company’s products;
consumer spending trends; fluctuations in the currencies of the countries in
which the Company operates against the US dollar; timely development and release
of the Company’s products; competition in the industry; the Company’s ability to
manage expenses; the Company’s ability to manage and sufficiently integrate
acquisitions of other companies; adverse changes in the securities markets; and
other factors described in our filings with the SEC, including our Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. The Company does not
undertake, and specifically disclaim any obligation, to release publicly the
results of any revisions that may be made to any forward-looking statements to
reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances
after the date of such statements.
