3.4Determination of Target Awards.  On the Determination Date, the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall establish a Target Award for each Participant.

3.5Determination of Payout Formula or Formulae.  On the Determination Date, the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall establish a Payout Formula or Formulae for purposes of determining the Actual Award (if any) payable to each Participant.

Notwithstanding the preceding, in any particular Plan Year, no Participant’s Actual Award under the Plan may exceed the Maximum Award.

 

3.6Determination of Actual Awards. After the end of each Plan Year, the Committee shall determine the extent to which the Performance Goals applicable to each Participant for the Plan Year, if any, were achieved or exceeded.  The Actual Award for each Participant shall be determined by applying the Payout Formula to the level of actual performance.

SECTION 4

PAYMENT OF AWARDS

 

4.1Right to Receive Payment.  Each Actual Award that may become payable under the Plan shall be paid solely from the general assets of the Company.  Nothing in this Plan shall be

4



 

 construed to create a trust or to establish or evidence any Participant’s claim of any right other than as 

 an unsecured general creditor with respect to any payment to which such Participant may be entitled.

 

4.2Timing of Payment.  Payment of each Actual Award shall be made between January 2 and March 15, inclusive, following the end of the Plan Year for which the Actual Award was based, with the payment date for the Actual Award to be designated by the Committee in its discretion at the time the Committee reviews and finally determines the Company’s performance and, if applicable, the Performance Goals applicable to each Participant, for the Plan Year, as described in Section 3.6.

 

4.3Form of Payment.  Each Actual Award shall be paid in a single lump sum, and shall be paid in cash (or an equivalent).

 

4.4Deferral of Actual Awards.   The Committee may establish one or more programs under the Plan to permit selected Participants the opportunity to elect to defer receipt of Actual Awards.  The Committee may establish the election procedures, the timing of such elections, the mechanisms for payments of, and accrual of interest or other earnings, if any, on amounts so deferred and such other terms, conditions, rules and procedures that the Committee deems advisable for the administration of any such deferral program.  The establishment, terms and operations of any such program shall be executed in a manner that complies with Code Section 409A.   For any Actual Awards  that  provide  nonqualified  deferred  compensation  subject  to  Code  Section  409A(a)(2), payment of the Actual Award to a “specified employee,” as defined in Code Section 409A, upon separation from service, to the extent required under Code Section 409A, shall not be made before six months after the date on which the separation from service occurs.  The Plan generally is intended to provide awards that qualify as short-term deferrals exempt from Code Section 409A.  To the extent that any Actual Awards are deferred hereunder, this Plan is intended to comply with Code Section

409A, and shall be interpreted accordingly.

 

4.5Payments in the Event of Death.  If a Participant dies after the end of a Plan Year but prior to either the Service Date or the Actual Award payment date applicable to such Plan Year, and if, but for the Participant’s death, the Participant would have been entitled to receive an Actual Award attributable to such Plan Year, the Actual Award shall be paid to the Participant’s estate.

 

SECTION 5

ADMINISTRATION

 

5.1Committee is the Administrator.  The Plan shall be administered by the Committee.

 

5.2Committee Authority.  The Committee shall have all discretion and authority necessary or appropriate to administer the Plan and any applicable STI Terms and Conditions under the Plan and to interpret the provisions of the Plan and any applicable STI Terms and Conditions.  Any determination,   decision   or   action   of   the   Committee   in   connection   with   the   construction, interpretation, administration or application of the Plan or any applicable STI Terms and Conditions shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all persons, and shall be given the maximum deference permitted by law.

 

5.3Tax  Withholding.    The  Company  shall  withhold  all  applicable  taxes  from  any payment, including, but not limited to, any federal, foreign, state and local taxes.

5.4 Assumptions of Awards by Former Affiliates.  In the event that an Affiliate becomes a separate publicly-held corporation (within the meaning of Code Section 162(m)) during a Plan Year and, as a result, ceases to be an Affiliate, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may (i) permit such former Affiliate to assume responsibility for awards established by the Committee for such Plan Year for Participants who are employed by such former Affiliate or its subsidiaries and (ii) to the extent permitted under applicable law, delegate to the compensation committee of such former Affiliate (or a committee that functions as such former Affiliate's compensation committee) the Committee’s authority  to  administer  each  such  award  after  such  former  Affiliate  ceases  to  be  an  Affiliate, including making any and all determinations required by the Plan.

 

5.5Assumption of Awards Established by Former Parent Company.  As of the Effective Date, the Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cash America International, Inc. (the “Parent”). In the event that the Company becomes a separate publicly traded corporation during a Plan Year and, as a result, ceases to be an Affiliate of the Parent during such Plan Year, the Committee in its sole discretion, may (i) assume responsibility for administering the short-term incentive plan terms and conditions for the Associates of the Company and its subsidiaries and Affiliates established by the Parent for such Plan Year, (ii) subject such terms and conditions to the provisions of this Plan beginning on the date the Company first becomes a separate publicly traded corporation and the Determination Date for such terms and conditions shall be deemed the date such terms and conditions were established by the Parent and such terms and conditions shall be deemed the STI Terms and Conditions hereunder for the Plan Year in which the Company becomes a separate publicly traded corporation, as if the Committee had established the same on such Determination Date, and (iii) assume the authority of the compensation committee of such former Parent (or a committee that functions as such former Parent's compensation committee) to administer each award for the Associates covered by such STI Terms and Conditions for such Plan Year, including making any and all determinations required by the Plan or such STI Terms and Conditions.

 

SECTION 6

GENERAL PROVISIONS

 

6.1Nonassignability.  A Participant shall have no right to encumber, assign or transfer any interest under this Plan.

 

6.2No Effect on Employment.  The establishment and subsequent operation of the Plan, including eligibility as a Participant, shall not be construed as conferring any legal or other rights upon a Participant for the continuation of employment during any Plan Year or any other period. Generally, employment with the Company is on an at will basis only.  Except as may be provided in an employment contract with the Participant, the Company expressly reserves the right, which may be exercised at any time and without regard to when during a Plan Year such exercise occurs, to terminate any individual’s employment with or without cause, and to treat any individual without regard to the effect which such treatment might have upon him or her as a Participant.

 

6.3No Individual Liability.  No member of the Committee or the Board, or any officer of the Company, shall be liable for any determination, decision or action made in good faith with respect to the Plan, any STI Terms and Conditions established under the Plan or any award made or not made under the Plan.

 

6



 

6.4Severability; Governing Law.  If any provision of the Plan is found to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall not affect the other provisions of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed in all respects as if such invalid provision has been omitted.  The provisions of the Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois, with the exception of Illinois’ conflict of laws provision.

 

6.5Affiliates of the Company.  Requirements referring to employment with the Company or payment of awards may, in the Committee’s sole discretion, be performed through the Company or any subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company.

 

6.6Compensation Recovery.  Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, in the event that the Company is required to materially restate its financial results due to the Company’s material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under Federal securities laws, excluding a material restatement of such financial results due solely to a change in generally accepted accounting principles in the United States or such other accounting principles that may be adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission and are or become applicable to the Company, and such accounting restatement is required at any time within two years following the applicable incentive payment date, the Committee may, in its sole discretion or as necessary to comply with applicable law, require any Participant hereunder who was an officer of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates at the time such misstatement or material noncompliance occurred to repay to the Company and/or its subsidiaries or Affiliates an amount equal to all or any portion of the incentive payment such Participant received under the Plan with respect to the applicable incentive payment date as may be determined to be appropriate or necessary by the Committee or as may be required by applicable  law.  Such  repayment  obligation  shall  be  effective  as  of  the  date  specified  by  the Committee. Any repayment obligation will be satisfied in cash or in such other form of consideration, such  as  shares  of  stock  of  the  Company,  permitted  by  applicable  law  and  acceptable  to  the Committee, and the Committee may provide for an offset to any future payments owed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates to such Participant if necessary to satisfy the repayment obligation; provided, however, that if any such offset is prohibited under applicable law, the Committee shall not permit any such offset and may require immediate repayment by such Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent required to comply with applicable law, any applicable stock exchange listing requirements and/or any compensation recovery or clawback policy adopted by the Company after the Effective Date, the Company may unilaterally amend this Compensation Recovery provision without the approval of the Company's stockholders or any Participant  hereunder,  and  any  such  amendment  shall  be  made  by  providing  notice  of  such amendment to each Participant affected by the amendment, and such amendment shall be binding on each  such  Participant;  provided,  however,  regardless  of  whether  the  Company  makes  such  a unilateral amendment to this Compensation Recovery provision or provides such notice to any such Participant,  such  Participant  shall  be  bound  by  any  compensation  recovery or  clawback  policy adopted by the Company after the Effective Date.
