Participant’s Employment under the provision so indicated. The failure by the
Participant or the Company to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or
circumstance that contributes to a showing of Good Reason

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

or Cause shall not waive any right of the Participant or the Company,
respectively, hereunder or preclude the Participant or the Company,

ELIGIBLE EMPLOYEES
2.1
An employee of the Company becomes eligible to participate in the Plan as of the
date the employee is specifically designated by the Administrator in writing as
a participant in the Plan (a “Participant”). Appendix A of this Plan document,
as it may be updated from time to time by the Administrator, shall at all times
contain a current list of Participants along with their Salary Multiple, Bonus
Multiple and Benefits Continuation Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a
Participant is eligible to receive severance benefits under another plan,
agreement or arrangement maintained by the Company, the Participant shall only
be entitled to receive severance benefits under this Plan or such other plan,
agreement or arrangement, whichever provides the greatest cumulative benefit to
the Participant. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall a Participant be
entitled to receive a Severance Pay under this Plan that would be duplicative of
any other severance benefits for which a Participant is eligible under another
plan, agreement or arrangement.

2.2
The Administrator may remove a person as a Participant by providing written
notice of removal to such person and updating Appendix A of this Plan document
to remove such person from the list of Participants; provided, however, that no
such removal shall be effective at such time as the Participant is entitled to
payment of Severance Pay or any other amounts payable under the Plan.
Notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, a Participant who is
entitled to payment of Severance Pay or any other amounts under the Plan shall
remain a Participant in the Plan until the full amount of the Severance Pay and
any other amounts payable under the Plan have been paid to the Participant.

ARTICLE III
ELIGIBILITY FOR SEVERANCE PAY
3.1
A Participant becomes eligible to receive Severance Pay under the Plan upon a
Qualifying Termination, provided that the Participant:

(a)
Performs all transition and other matters required of the Participant by the
Company prior to his or her Qualifying Termination;

(b)
Returns to the Company any property of the Company which has come into the
Participant’s possession; and

(c)
Timely returns (and does not thereafter revoke) a signed and dated original
agreement and general release in a form acceptable to the Company, in its sole
and absolute discretion (the “Release”), under which the Participant,

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

among other things, releases and discharges the Company and its subsidiaries and
affiliates from all claims and liabilities relating to his or her employment
with the Company and the termination of his or her employment, including without
limitation, claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the American
with Disabilities Act, the Family Medical and Leave Act, Equal Pay Act, ERISA,
the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, Section
1981 of U.S.C. Title 42, the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002, the Worker Adjustment
and Retraining Notification Act of 1988, and the Older Workers Benefit
Protection Act.

3.2
If the Participant dies before receiving a portion of his or her Severance Pay
under the Plan, any remaining Severance Pay will be paid to the appointed
administrator, executor or personal representative of the Participant’s estate
no later than March 15th following the calendar year in which the Participant’s
death occurs.

ARTICLE IV
AMOUNT OF SEVERANCE PAY
4.1
If the Participant satisfies the requirements of the Plan, including but not
limited to the Participant’s completion and non-revocation of the Release, upon
a Qualifying Termination, the Participant will be eligible to receive in a lump
sum in cash within 10 days after the Date of Termination, the aggregate of the
following amounts, which benefits shall be in addition to any other benefits to
which the Participant is entitled other than by reason of the Plan:

(a)
An amount equal to the Salary Multiple times the Participant’s Annual Base
Salary; and

 
(b)
An amount equal to the Bonus Multiple times the Participant’s Applicable Bonus.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant’s Applicable Bonus is
determined under Section 1.5(d), then the amount described in subsection (b) of
this Section shall be paid in a lump sum in cash within 10 days after the date
of determination of the amount of such Applicable Bonus.
4.2
If the Participant’s employment is terminated under circumstances that entitle
the Participant to Severance Pay under Section 4.1, the Company shall provide
the Participant and the Participant’s eligible dependents with continued health
care, dental and life insurance benefits under the Company’s health care, dental
and life insurance benefits programs for the Benefits Continuation Period, which
benefits shall be no less than those provided to the Participant and the
Participant’s eligible dependents at the time of the Date of Termination;
provided, however, that the Participant must comply with all terms and
conditions of the applicable plans, including paying the necessary employee
contributions; and provided further, however, that, if the Participant becomes
reemployed with another employer and becomes eligible to receive health care,
dental or life insurance benefits under another employer provided plan, the
benefits described herein shall be secondary to those provided under such other
plan during such applicable period of eligibility. Benefit continuation will be
provided concurrently with any benefits required under COBRA. The difference
between the cost for such benefits under COBRA and the amount of the necessary
contributions that the Participant is required to pay for such coverage as
provided above will be paid by the Company and considered imputed income to the
Participant. The Participant is responsible for the payment of income tax due as
a result of such imputed income. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company’s
providing benefit continuation hereunder would violate the nondiscrimination
rules applicable to non-grandfathered plans or would result in imposition of
penalties under PPACA, the Company may reform this Section 4.2 in a manner as is
necessary to comply with PPACA.

ARTICLE V
EXCISE TAXES
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, if a Participant is a
“disqualified individual” (as defined in Section 280G(c) of the Code), and the
payments and benefits provided for in this Plan, together with any other
payments and benefits which such Participant has the right to receive from the
Company or any of its Affiliates, would constitute a “parachute payment” (as
defined in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code), then the payments and benefits
provided for in this Plan shall be either:
(a)
Reduced (but not below zero) so that the present value of such total amounts and
benefits received by such Participant from the Company and its Affiliates will
be one dollar ($1.00) less than three times such Participant’s “base amount” (as
defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code) and so that no portion of such
amounts and benefits received by such Participant shall be subject to the excise
tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, or

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(b)
Paid in full,

whichever produces the better net after-tax position to such Participant (taking
into account any applicable excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code and any
other applicable taxes). The reduction of payments and benefits hereunder, if
applicable, shall be made by reducing, first, payments or benefits to be paid in
cash hereunder in the order in which such payment or benefit would be paid or
provided (beginning with such payment or benefit that would be made last in time
and continuing, to the extent necessary, through to such payment or benefit that
would be made first in time) and, then, reducing any benefit to be provided
in-kind hereunder in a similar order. The determination as to whether any such
reduction in the amount of the payments and benefits provided hereunder is
necessary shall be made by the Company in good faith. If a reduced payment or
benefit is made or provided and through error or otherwise that payment or
benefit, when aggregated with other payments and benefits from the Company or
its Affiliates used in determining if a “parachute payment” exists, exceeds one
dollar ($1.00) less than three times such Participant’s base amount, then such
Participant shall be required to immediately repay such excess to the Company
upon notification that an overpayment has been made. Nothing in this Article V
shall require the Company to be responsible for, or have any liability or
obligation with respect to, such Participant’s excise tax liabilities under
Section 4999 of the Code.
ARTICLE VI
PLAN ADMINISTRATION
6.1
The Plan is administered by the Administrator. The Administrator has sole
discretion and authority to interpret and make determinations and decisions with
respect to the Plan, including the authority to interpret its provisions and
construe all of its terms, to authorize the payment of benefits, to establish
and enforce such rules and regulations as it shall deem proper for the efficient
administration of the Plan, to determine eligibility for benefits under the Plan
and to determine the entitlement to and amount of Severance Pay which shall be
payable to any person in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. The
decision of the Administrator based on the Plan and documents presented to it
shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons.

6.2
The Administrator may delegate any or all of its authority and responsibilities
with respect to the Plan, on such terms and conditions as it considers
appropriate, to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company; provided, however,

respect to the Executive Officers may not be delegated and shall be made by the

those persons to whom the Administrator has properly delegated authority and

Administrator’s Response to Appeal — The Administrator will provide the
Participant with written notice of its decision within 60 days after the

such case, the Administrator will notify the Participant in writing within the
60-day period and the final decision will be made no later than 120 days after
the Administrator’s receipt of the Participant’s written claim for review. The

ARTICLE VIII
YOUR RIGHTS UNDER ERISA
8.1
As a Participant in the Plan you are entitled to certain rights and protections
under ERISA. ERISA provides that all Plan Participants shall be entitled to:

(a)
Examine, without charge, at the Administrator’s office and at other specified
locations, such as worksites and union halls, all documents governing the plan
and a copy of the latest annual report (Form 5500 Series) filed by the Plan with
the U.S. Department of Labor and available at the Employee Benefits Security
Administration;

(b)
Obtain, upon written request to the Administrator, copies of documents governing
the operation of the Plan and copies of the latest annual report (Form 5500
Series) and updated summary plan description. The Administrator may impose a
reasonable charge for the copies; and

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(c)
Receive a summary of the Plan’s annual financial report. The Administrator is
required by law to furnish each Participant with a copy of this summary annual
report.

8.2
In addition to creating rights for Plan Participants, ERISA imposes duties upon
the people who are responsible for the operation of the Plan. The people who
operate the Plan, called “fiduciaries” of the Plan, have a duty to do so
prudently and in the interest of you and other Plan Participants and
beneficiaries. No one, including your employer, your union, or any other person,
may fire you or otherwise discriminate against you in any way to prevent you
from obtaining a welfare benefit under the Plan or exercising your rights under
ERISA.

8.3
If your claim for a welfare benefit is denied or ignored, in whole or in part,
you have a right to know why this was done, to obtain copies of documents
relating to the decision without charge, and to appeal any denial, all within
certain time schedules. Under ERISA, there are steps you can take to enforce the
above rights. For instance, if you request a copy of Plan documents or the
latest annual report from the Plan and do not receive it within 30 days, you may
file suit in a federal court. In such a case, the court may require the
Administrator to provide the materials and pay you up to $110 a day until you
receive the materials, unless the materials were not sent because of reasons
beyond the control of the Administrator. If you have a claim for benefits that
is denied or ignored, in whole or in part, you may file suit in a state or
federal court. If it should happen that Plan fiduciaries misuse the Plan’s
money, or if you are discriminated against for asserting your rights, you may
seek assistance from the U.S. Department of Labor, or you may file suit in a
federal court. The court will decide who should pay court costs and legal fees.
If you are successful, the court may order the person you have sued to pay these
costs and fees. If you lose, the court may order you to pay these costs and fees
if, for example, it finds your claim is frivolous.

If you have any questions about the Plan, you should contact the Administrator
at: Administrator, EZCORP, Inc., 1901 Capital Parkway, Austin, Texas 78746 or
(512) 314-3400. If you have any questions about this statement or about your
rights under ERISA, or if you need assistance in obtaining documents from the
Administrator, you should contact the nearest office of the Employee Benefits
Security Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, listed in your telephone
directory or 200 Constitution Avenue N.W., Washington, D.C. 20210. You may also
obtain certain publications about your rights and responsibilities under ERISA
by calling the publications hotline of the Employee Benefits Security
Administration.

Application of Section 409A -—

(a)
General - The Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A
or an exemption or exclusion therefrom and, with respect to amounts that are
subject to Section 409A, shall in all respects be administered in accordance
with Section 409A. Any payments that qualify for the “short-term deferral”
exception or another exception under Section 409A shall be paid under the
applicable exception. Each payment of compensation under this Plan shall be
treated as a separate payment of compensation for purposes of Section 409A. All
payments to be made upon a termination of employment under this Plan may only be
made upon a “separation from service” under Section 409A. In no event may the
Participant, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of any payment
under this Plan.

(b)
In-Kind Benefits and Reimbursements — Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Plan, all reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under the Plan
shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A,
including, where applicable, the requirement that (i) any reimbursement is for
expenses incurred during the Participant’s lifetime (or during a shorter period
of time specified in the Plan), (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for
reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during a calendar year may not
affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be
provided, in any other calendar year, except, if such benefits consist of the
reimbursement of expenses referred to in Section 105(b) of the Code, a maximum,
if provided under the terms of the plan providing such medical benefit, may be
imposed on the amount of such reimbursements over some or all of the period in
which such benefit is to be provided to the Participant as described in Treasury
Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(iv)(B), (iii) the reimbursement of an eligible
expense will be made no later than the last day of the calendar year following
the year in which the expense is incurred, provided that the Participant shall
have submitted an invoice for such fees and expenses at least ten days before
the end of the calendar year next following the calendar year in which such fees
and expenses were incurred and (iv) the right to reimbursement or in-kind
benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

(c)
Delay of Payments — Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the
contrary, if the Participant is considered a “specified employee” for purposes
of Section 409A (as determined in accordance with the methodology established by
the Company as in effect on the Date of Termination), any payment that
constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation within the meaning of Section
409A that is otherwise due to the Participant under this Plan during the
six-month period following the Participant’s separation from service (as
determined in accordance with Section 409A) on account of the Participant’s
separation from service shall be accumulated and paid to the Participant on the
first business day after the date that is six months following the Participant’s
separation from service. No interest will be paid by the Company with respect to
any such delayed payments. If the Participant dies during the postponement
period, the amounts and entitlements delayed on account of Section 409A shall be
paid to the personal representative of the Participant’s estate on the first to
occur of the date specified above or 30 days after the date of the Participant’s
death.
