(b)    Performance Award Vesting.  Subject to the terms and conditions specified on Exhibit “A,” the portion of the Performance Award payable hereunder, if any, shall vest on January 1, 2017 (“Performance Award Vesting Date”), as long as Employee remains continuously (i) employed by the Company or its subsidiaries or other affiliates, and/or (ii) a member of the Board, through said date, subject to receiving Committee Certification (as defined on Exhibit “A”).

[**Confidential Treatment Requested] indicates that portions of this document have been omitted and have been separately filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.








(b)    Deferred Delivery.  


		
	i.
	Employee may elect to defer the timing of the payment of the vested portions of the Base Award granted under this Agreement until the later of (A) the date Employee has a separation from service as an employee (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(h)(1); “Employment Separation from Service”) or (B) a specified date which may be either the applicable vesting date or a later date not later than January 31, 2018.  For all portions of the Base Award granted under this Agreement, such deferral election must be made no later than February 17, 2014.  For clarification purposes, the payment for any portions of the Base Award that vest following an Employment Separation from Service in accordance with this Agreement and are deferred in accordance with this Section 4(b)(i) will be paid in accordance with Section 4(b)(i)(B); provided, however, if Employee has not specified a date pursuant to Section 4(b)(i)(B), such date shall be deemed to be January 31, 2018.




		
	ii.
	Employee may elect to defer but not accelerate the timing of the payment of the portion of the Performance Award granted under this Agreement that vests and is certified by the Committee in accordance with this Agreement, if any, until the later of (A) the date of Employee’s Employment Separation from Service, or (B) January 1, 2019.  Such election must be made no later than February 17, 2014. For clarification purposes, if the Performance Award vests following an Employment Separation from Service in accordance with this Agreement and is deferred in accordance with this Section 4(b)(ii) the payment of the portion of the Performance Award granted under this Agreement that vests and is certified by the Committee in accordance with this Agreement, if any, will be paid in accordance with Section 4(b)(ii)(B).




		
	iii.
	To the extent required under Code §409A and applicable guidance issued thereunder (“Code §409A”), if Employee is a specified employee (within the meaning of Code §409A) at the time Employee has an Employment Separation from Service and has elected to defer receipt of his Base Award and/or Performance Award, the shares of Common Stock transferable on a deferred basis as a result of Employee’s Employment Separation from Service for any reason other than Employee’s death shall not be issued before the date that is six months after Employee’s Employment Separation from Service or such earlier time (if any) as may be permitted under Code §409A.  In the event of Employee’s death after he has elected to defer receipt of his Base Award and/or Performance Award, the shares of Common Stock relating to any and all outstanding RSUs that have not been forfeited under Section 3 of this Agreement will be issued in the name of Employee’s Beneficiary, as follows: (A) for the Base Award, upon the 60th day after Employee’s death, and (B) for any vested Performance Award certified by the Committee, by the latest to occur of (a) March 15, 2018, (b) December 31 of the year in which his death occurs, or (c) within 21⁄2 months after his date of death.  




5.    Change in Control. 


(a)    Vesting and Payment.  In the event of a Change in Control (as defined below) while Employee is still employed by the Company or its subsidiaries or other affiliates and/or serving as a member of the Board, vesting of the entire Award (both the Base Award and the maximum Performance 

4
[**Confidential Treatment Requested] indicates that portions of this document have been omitted and have been separately filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.








Award) shall automatically accelerate and become 100% vested as of the date the Change in Control occurs as long as Employee has remained continuously employed through such date by the Company or by an entity that is a subsidiary or other affiliate of the Company on the day immediately preceding the date of the Change in Control and/or served as a member of the Board through such date.  In such event, the shares of Common Stock evidencing vested RSUs shall be delivered to Employee in a lump sum within 60 days following the date of the Change in Control, notwithstanding any election made under Section 4(b) of this Agreement.  A “Change in Control” shall mean an event that is a change in the ownership of the Company, a change in the effective control of the Company or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company, all as defined in Code §409A and guidance issued thereunder, except that 35% shall be substituted for 30% in applying Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(vi) and 50% shall be substituted for 40% in applying Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(vii).  Notwithstanding the above, a “Change in Control” shall not include any event that is not treated under Code §409A as a change in control event with respect to Employee.


(b)    Substitution.  Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, upon a Change in Control, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may, in lieu of issuing Common Stock, provide Employee with an equivalent amount payable in the form of cash.


6.    Agreement of Employee.  Employee acknowledges that certain restrictions under state or federal securities laws may apply with respect to the shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Award.  Specifically, Employee acknowledges that, to the extent Employee is an “affiliate” of the Company (as that term is defined by the Securities Act of 1933), the shares of Common Stock to be issued as a result of the Award are subject to certain trading restrictions under applicable securities laws (including particularly the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Rule 144).  Employee hereby agrees to execute such documents and take such actions as the Company may reasonably require with respect to state and federal securities laws and any restrictions on the resale of such shares which may pertain under such laws.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary and only to the extent permitted under Code §409A, a payment may be delayed to the extent the Company reasonably anticipates that making the payment will violate federal securities laws or other applicable laws. 


7.    Withholding.  Upon the issuance of shares to Employee pursuant to this Agreement, Employee shall pay an amount equal to the amount of all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes which the Company is required to withhold at any time.  Such payment may be made in cash or, with respect to the issuance of shares to Employee pursuant to this Agreement, by delivery of whole shares of Common Stock (including shares issuable under this Agreement) in accordance with Section 14(a) of the Plan and the terms of Code §409A.  


8.    Adjustment of Awards.


(a)    If there is an increase or decrease in the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock through the payment of a stock dividend or resulting from a stock split, a recapitalization, or a combination or exchange of shares of Common Stock, then the number of outstanding RSUs hereunder shall be adjusted so that the proportion of such Award to the Company’s total issued and outstanding shares of Common stock remains the same as existed immediately prior to such event.  


(b)    Except as provided in Section 8(a) of this Agreement, no adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock subject to any outstanding portion of the RSUs shall be made upon the issuance by the Company of shares of any class of its capital stock or securities convertible into shares of any class of capital stock, either in connection with a direct sale or upon the exercise of rights or warrants to subscribe

[**Confidential Treatment Requested] indicates that portions of this document have been omitted and have been separately filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.








therefor, or upon the conversion of any other obligation of the Company that may be convertible into such shares or other securities.


(c)    Upon the occurrence of events affecting Common Stock other than those specified in Sections 8(a) and 8(b) of this Agreement, the Committee may make such other adjustments to awards as are permitted under Section 5(c) of the Plan.  This section shall not be construed as limiting any other rights the Committee may have under the terms of the Plan.


9.    Clawback Provision.  Pursuant to Section 14(m) of the Plan, 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, at any time before or within two years following the Performance Award Vesting Date as a result of fraud or intentional misconduct on the part of the Employee, the Committee may, in its discretion, (a) cancel the Performance Award, in whole or in part, whether or not vested (so long as shares of Common Stock have not yet been issued in accordance with Section 4(a)(ii) or Section 4(b)(ii) of this Agreement) and/or (b) require the Employee to repay to the Company an amount equal to all or any portion of the value of any or all of the shares that have been issued in accordance with Section 4(a)(ii) of this Agreement valued as of the Performance Award Vesting Date.  Such cancellation or repayment obligation shall be effective as of the date specified by the Committee.  Any repayment obligation may be satisfied in shares of Common Stock or cash or a combination thereof (based on the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the date of repayment) and the Committee may provide for an offset to any future payments owed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates to the Employee 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 offsets and may require immediate repayment by the Employee.


Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent required to comply with applicable law, any Clawback Policy and/or amendment to the Plan adopted by the Company after the date of this Agreement, the Company may unilaterally amend this Section 9, and any such amendment shall be made by providing notice of such amendment to Employee, and such amendment shall be binding on Employee; provided, regardless of whether the Company makes such a unilateral amendment to this Section 9 or provides such notice to Employee, this section shall be deemed consistent with any Clawback Policy and/or amendment to the Plan adopted by the Company after the date of this Agreement and Employee shall be bound thereby.


10.    Plan Provisions.


In addition to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Award is subject to and governed by the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan, as may be amended from time to time, which are hereby incorporated by reference.  Any terms used herein with an initial capital letter shall have the same meaning as provided in the Plan, unless otherwise specified herein.  In the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Agreement and the Plan, the Plan shall control.


11.    Miscellaneous.


(a)    Limitation of Rights.  The granting of the Award and the execution of the Agreement shall not give Employee any rights to (1) similar grants in future years, (2) any right to be retained in the employ or service of the Company or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries, or (3) interfere in any way with the right of the Company or its affiliates or subsidiaries to terminate Employee’s employment or services at any time.

(b)    Claims Procedure.  Any dispute or claim for benefits by any person under this Agreement shall be determined by the Committee in accordance with the claims procedures under the Cash America International, Inc. Nonqualified Savings Plan.  


(c)    Shareholder Rights.  Neither Employee nor Employee’s Beneficiary shall have any of the rights of a shareholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock issuable upon vesting of any portion of the Award, including without limitation a right to cash dividends or a right to vote, until (i) such portion of the Award is vested and, if applicable with respect to the Performance Award, certified by the Committee, and (ii) such shares have been delivered and issued to Employee or Employee’s Beneficiary pursuant to Section 4 of this Agreement. 


(d)    Severability.  If any term, provision, covenant or restriction contained in the Agreement is held by a court or a federal regulatory agency of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions contained in the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated.


(e)    Controlling Law.  The Agreement is being made in Texas and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of that state.


(f)    Construction.

There are no representations, agreements, arrangements or understandings, oral or written, between and among the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof which are not fully expressed herein.


(g)    Amendments to Comply With Code §409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any provision of this Agreement would cause compensation to be includible in Employee’s income pursuant to Code §409A(a)(1), then the Company may amend the Agreement in such a way as to cause substantially similar economic results without causing such inclusion; any such amendment shall be made by providing notice of such amendment to Employee, and shall be binding on Employee.


(h)    Code §162(m) Provisions. The terms of the Agreement and/or Exhibit “A” may not be amended in a manner that would cause the Performance Award to cease to qualify for the Section 162(m) Exemption (as defined in the Plan).


(i)    Headings.  Section and other headings contained in the Agreement are for reference purposes only and are in no way intended to describe, interpret, define or limit the scope, extent or intent of the Agreement or any provision hereof.

The 2016 EPS shall exclude all amounts of any after-tax gain or loss that exceeds $500,000 in a single transaction from either the deconsolidation of any subsidiary or the sale or write-off of (i) discontinued business operations (as defined under GAAP), (ii) any ownership interest in a subsidiary or other entity in which the Company or a subsidiary of the Company has an ownership interest of at least 10% before the transaction, or (iii) assets classified under GAAP as noncurrent assets (other than the noncurrent portion of any loans to customers).  In the event that a Deconsolidating Enova Event occurs on or before December 31, 2016, the 2016 EPS shall exclude the Company’s equity in earnings of Enova, net of the Company’s income tax effect of such earnings.

	5.
	Vesting and Payment Amounts.  The amount of the Performance Award that will vest and be payable (subject to Committee Certification, as described below) shall be determined as follows:  


		
	a.

	b.
	200% of the Target Performance Award amount shall vest and be payable if the Company’s 2016 [**Confidential Treatment Requested]  EPS achieves a CAGR of [**Confidential Treatment Requested].


		
	c.

	d.
	No portion of the Performance Award will vest or be payable if the Company’s 2016 [**Confidential Treatment Requested]  EPS achieves a CAGR of [**Confidential Treatment Requested] or less.


		
	e.
	For purposes of determining the amount of the Performance Award that will vest and be payable, CAGR shall be rounded to the nearest 0.1%; the calculated percentage of the amount of the Performance Award payable at vesting will be rounded to the nearest 1.0%; and any fractional share resulting from the calculation shall be rounded up to the next whole share.


		
	6.
	Committee Certification.  At its first regularly scheduled meeting (or, if later, at the first meeting held once the necessary EPS data has become available) following the Performance Award Vesting Date (which meeting is anticipated to occur during the last 14 days of January 2017), the Committee (or any successor thereto) shall determine the extent to which the conditions for the vesting of the Performance Award described in this Appendix (the “Performance Goals”) have been met and shall certify the portion of the Target Performance Award, if any, that has vested and is payable (“Committee Certification”).  Such Performance Goals will be considered to have been met only to the extent that the Committee certifies in writing (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.162-27(e)(5)) that they have been met.  The Committee Certification shall certify as to the satisfaction of the performance goals set forth in this Exhibit and as to the satisfaction of all other material terms of the Performance Award (including, without limitation, the requirements of (a) remaining continuously employed and/or a member of the Board and/or (b) attaining Rule of 65).
