 WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to amend and restate the Existing Employment Agreement in the manner, and on the terms and conditions herein provided.

while employed hereunder in the By-laws of Employer or Subsidiary or other documents of Employer or Subsidiary. The capacity that Employee shall hold during the term hereof shall be that position as determined by the Board of Directors of Employer
or Subsidiary, or any duly authorized committee thereof, from time to time in its sole discretion. While employed hereunder, the initial position that Employee shall hold shall be Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer — Servicing

efforts to promote the interests of Employer and Subsidiary and to maintain and to promote the reputation thereof. While employed hereunder, Employee shall devote his time, efforts, skills and attention to the affairs of Employer and Subsidiary in
order that he shall faithfully perform his duties and obligations hereunder and such as may be assigned to or vested in him by the Board of Directors of Employer or Subsidiary, any duly authorized committees thereof or any duly authorized officer of
Employer or Subsidiary. 
  
 1.3. During the term of this
Agreement, Employee may from time to time engage in any businesses or activities that do not compete directly and materially with Employer or Subsidiary

performance of the duties assigned to him in compliance with this Agreement by the Board of Directors of Employer or Subsidiary, any duly authorized committees thereof or any authorized officer of Employer or Subsidiary. In any event, Employee is
permitted to (i) invest his personal assets as a passive investor in such form or manner as will not contravene the best interests of Employer or Subsidiary, (ii) participate in various charitable efforts, or (iii) serve as a director

or officer of Employer, shall review Employee’s overall annual compensation at least annually, with a view to ascertaining the adequacy thereof and such compensation may be increased (but not decreased) by the Board of Directors of Employer

fiduciary responsibility attendant upon his service and office. 







 4. Employee’s Obligation to Refrain From Using or Disclosing Information: 
  
 4.1. As part of Employee’s fiduciary duties to Employer and Subsidiary,
Employee agrees, both during the term of this Agreement and thereafter, to protect, preserve the confidentiality of and safeguard Employer’s and Subsidiary’s secret or confidential information, knowledge, ideas, concepts, improvements,
discoveries and inventions, and, except as may be expressly required by Employer, Employee shall not, either during his employment by Employer or Subsidiary or thereafter, directly or indirectly, use for his own benefit or for the benefit of
another, or disclose to another, any of such information, ideas, concepts, improvements, discoveries or inventions. 
  
 4.2. Upon termination of his employment with Employer and Subsidiary, or at any other time upon request, Employee shall immediately deliver to Employer

additional one-year periods commencing on the anniversary date hereof and on each anniversary thereafter, unless either Employee or Employer gives written notice to the other on or before any December 1 of his or its intention not to extend
this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, it is the intention of the parties hereto that, unless and until such notice of non-extension is provided by either Employer or Employee as provided in the immediately
preceding sentence (or unless this Agreement is terminated pursuant to the terms hereof), as of each anniversary date hereafter the term of this Agreement shall be extended for one year so as to provide for a prospective three-year employment term
as of each such date. 
  
 6. Termination other than by Expiration of the
Term: Employer or Employee may terminate Employee’s employment under this Agreement at any time, but only on the following terms: 
  
 6.1. Employee may terminate his employment under this Agreement at any time upon at least ninety (90) days’ prior written notice to Employer.

  
 6.2. Employer may terminate Employee’s employment under
this Agreement at any time, without prior notice, for “due cause” upon the good faith determination by the Board of Directors of Employer or Subsidiary, that “due cause” exists for the termination of the employment relationship.
As used herein, the term “due cause” shall mean any of the following events: 
  
 (i) any intentional misapplication by Employee of Employer’s or Subsidiary’s funds, or any other act of dishonesty injurious to Employer or Subsidiary committed by Employee; or 
  
 (ii) Employee’s conviction of a crime involving moral turpitude; or

  
 (iii) Employee’s use or possession of any controlled
substance or abuse of alcoholic beverages; or 
  
 (iv)
Employee’s breach, non-performance or non-observance of any of the terms of this Agreement if such breach, non-performance or non-observance shall continue beyond a period of ten (10) days immediately after notice thereof by Employer to
Employee; or 







 (v) any other action by the Employee involving willful and deliberate malfeasance or gross negligence in
the performance of Employee’s duties. 
  
 6.3. In the event
Employee is incapacitated by Disability, accident, sickness or otherwise so as to render Employee mentally or physically incapable of performing the services required under Section 1 for a period of one hundred eighty (180) consecutive
business days, and such incapacity is confirmed by the written opinion of two (2) practicing medical doctors licensed by and in good standing in the state in which they maintain offices for the practice of medicine, upon the expiration of such
period or at any time reasonably thereafter, or in the event of Employee’s death, Employer may terminate Employee’s employment under this Agreement upon giving Employee or his legal representative written notice at least thirty
(30) days’ prior to the termination date. Employee agrees, after written notice by the Board of Directors of Employer or Subsidiary or a duly authorized committee or any officer of Employer or Subsidiary, to submit to examinations by such
practicing medical doctors selected by the Board of Directors of Employer or Subsidiary or a duly authorized committee or any officer of Employer or Subsidiary. For the purposes of this Section 6.3, “Disability” shall mean a person
(i) is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12
months, or (ii) is, by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, receiving income replacement
benefits for a period of not less than 3 months under an accident and health plan covering employees of Employer or Subsidiary. 
  
 6.4. Employer may terminate Employee’s employment under this Agreement at any time for any reason whatsoever, even without “due cause,” by
giving a written notice of termination to Employee, in which case the employment relationship shall terminate immediately upon the giving of such notice. 
  
 7. Effect of Termination: 
  
 7.1. In the event the employment relationship is terminated (a) by Employee upon sixty (60) days’ written notice pursuant to
Section 6.1, (b) by Employer for “due cause” pursuant to Section 6.2, or (c) by Employee breaching this Agreement by refusing to continue his employment and failing to give the requisite sixty (60) days’
written notice, all compensation and benefits shall cease as of the date of termination (it being specifically agreed that Employee shall not be entitled to any bonuses not yet vested at the date of termination), other than: (i) those benefits
that are provided by retirement and benefit plans and programs specifically adopted and approved by Employer or Subsidiary for Employee that are earned and vested by the date of termination, and (ii) Employee’s pro rata annual salary plus
all earned and vested bonuses through the date of termination. Employee’s right to exercise stock options and Employee’s rights in other stock plans, if any, shall remain governed by the terms and conditions of the appropriate stock plan.

  
 7.2. If Employee’s employment relationship is terminated
pursuant to Section 6.3 hereof due to Employee’s incapacity or death, Employee (or, in the event of Employee’s death, Employee’s legal representative or estate) will be entitled to those benefits that are provided by retirement
and benefits plans and programs specifically adopted and approved by Employer or Subsidiary for Employee that are earned and vested at the date of termination and, even though no longer employed by Employer or Subsidiary, shall continue to receive
the salary compensation (payable in the manner as prescribed in the second sentence of Section 2.1) for six (6) months following the date of termination. Employee (or, in the event of Employee’s death, Employee’s legal
representative or estate) shall not, however, be entitled to any bonuses not yet vested at the date of termination of employment. Employee’s right to exercise stock options and Employee’s rights in other stock plans, if any, shall remain
governed by the terms and conditions of the appropriate stock plans. 







 7.3. If Employer (i) terminates the employment of Employee other than pursuant to Section 6.2
hereof for “due cause” or other than for a disability or death pursuant to Section 6.3 hereof or (ii) decreases Employee’s salary below its then current level, as such salary level may have been increased from time to time
above the initial level specified in Section 2.1, or reduces the employee benefits and perquisites below the levels provided for by the terms of Section 2 hereof, other than as a result of any amendment or termination of any employee
and/or executive benefit plan or arrangement, which amendment or termination is applicable to all employees of Employer or Subsidiary, then such action by Employer, unless consented to in writing by Employee, shall be deemed to be a
constructive termination by Employer of Employee’s employment (a “Constructive Termination”). In the event of a Constructive Termination, the Employee shall be entitled to receive, in a lump sum six (6) months after the date of
the Constructive Termination, an amount equal to one year’s salary (undiscounted) in effect immediately prior to the event giving rise to the Constructive Termination. For purposes of this Section 7.3, the term “salary” shall
mean the annual rate of compensation, excluding any bonuses, provided to Employee under Section 2.1 hereof immediately prior to the event giving rise to the Constructive Termination. In the event of such Constructive Termination, all other
rights and benefits Employee may have under the employee benefit plans and arrangements of Employer generally shall be determined in accordance with the terms and conditions of such plans and arrangements. 
  
 8. Employee’s Non-Competition Obligation: 
  
 8.1. Employee acknowledges and agrees that he serves in a special capacity
for Employer and Subsidiary pursuant to which he will acquire unique knowledge of the operations and business of Employer and Subsidiary and, as such, will not be engaged in a common calling. During the existence of Employee’s employment by
Employer and Subsidiary hereunder and, if the employment of Employee is terminated by Employer for any reason pursuant to Section 6.2 or Section 6.4, or Employee voluntarily terminates his employment (unless such voluntary termination
occurs within twelve months after a “change in control,” as defined in Section 8A.1 hereof), for a period of one year from the date on which he shall cease to be employed by Employer or Subsidiary, Employee shall not, acting alone or
in conjunction with others, directly or indirectly, and whether as principal, agent, officer, director, partner, employee, consultant, broker, dealer or otherwise, in any of the Business Territories (as defined below) engage in any business in
competition with the business conducted by Employer, Subsidiary or any subsidiary of Employer or Subsidiary, whether for his own account or otherwise, or solicit, canvass or accept any business or transaction for or from any other company or
business in competition with such business of Employer or Subsidiary in any of the Business Territories. For purposes hereof, the term “Business Territories” means the geographical regions within the geographic borders of each State in
which Employer or Subsidiary is doing business during the term of this Agreement and (in the case of post-employment non-competition obligations) at the date of the termination of Employee’s employment with Employer and Subsidiary and any State
in which Employer had reasonable prospects of engaging in business during the noncompetition period following termination of employment. 
  
 8.2. It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of Section 8.1 shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws
and public policies of the State of Texas. Accordingly, if any particular portion of Section 8.1 shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, Section 8.1 shall be deemed amended to (i) reform the particular portion to provide
for such maximum restrictions as will be valid and enforceable or if that is not possible, then (ii) delete therefrom the portion thus adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable. 







 8A. Change in Control 
  
 8A.1 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary otherwise provided herein, if a “change of control” (as defined below) of Employer occurs and
within twelve (12) months from the date of such “change of control,” Employee voluntarily terminates the employment relationship under this Agreement by giving ninety (90) days’ written notice to Employer or Subsidiary under
Section 6.1 hereof or within such twelve (12) month period Employer or Subsidiary gives written notice to Employee to terminate Employee’s employment relationship without “due cause” pursuant to Section 6.4, or in the
event that the Employee shall die or become disable within such twelve (12) month, then, even though no longer employed by Employer, Employee (or, if applicable, Employee’s legal representative or estate) shall be entitled to earned and
vested bonuses at the date of termination plus a payment equal to the amount of Employee’s salary (undiscounted), as “salary” is defined below, prorated for the remainder of the fiscal year in which the “change of control”
occurs, plus the present value (employing a discount rate of 8%) of two additional years’ salary, payable in a lump sum six (6) months after the date of termination. Employee’s right to exercise stock options and
Employee’s rights in other stock plans, if any, shall remain governed by the terms and conditions of the appropriate stock plan. For purposes of this Section 8A.1, the term “salary” shall mean the sum of (i) the annual rate
of compensation provided to Employee under Section 2.1 hereof immediately prior to the “change in control,” plus (ii) the average annual cash bonuses or other cash incentive compensation paid to Employee by Employer for the three
years in the three year period immediately preceding the year in which there shall occur a “change in control.” Employee’s right to exercise stock options and Employee’s rights in other stock plans, if any, shall remain governed
by the terms and conditions of the appropriate stock plan. “Change in control” shall be deemed to have occurred (i) on the date that any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires ownership of stock of Employer
that, together with stock held by such person or group, constitutes more than 50% of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock of Employer, (ii) on the date that a majority of the members of Employer’s Board of
Directors is replaced during any 12-month period by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the members of Employer’s Board of Directors prior to the date of the appointment or election or (iii) on the date
any one person, or more than one person acting as a group acquires (or has acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) assets from Employer that have a total gross fair market
value equal to or more than 40% of the total gross fair market value of all the assets of Employer immediately prior to such acquisition or acquisitions. 
  
 8A.2 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if (a) there is a change in the ownership or effective control of Employer or in the
ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of Employer (within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2)(A) of Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”)) and (b) the payments otherwise to be made pursuant to Section 8.1 and any other
payments or benefits otherwise to be paid to Employee in the nature of compensation to be received by or for the benefit of Employee and contingent upon such event (the “Termination Payments”) would create an “excess parachute
payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, then Employer shall make the Termination Payments in substantially equal installments, the first installment being due six (6) months after the date of termination and each
subsequent installment being due on January 31 of each year, such that the aggregate present value of all Termination Payments, whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, will be as close as possible to, but not exceed, 299% of
Employee’s base amount, within the meaning of Section 280G. 
  
 9.
Obligations to Refrain From Competing Unfairly: 
  
 9.1.
In addition to the other obligations agreed to by Employee in this Agreement, Employee agrees that during his employment with Employer or Subsidiary and following the termination of his employment by Employer and Subsidiary he shall not at any time,
directly or indirectly, (a) induce, entice, or solicit any employee of Employer or Subsidiary to leave his 







 employment, or engage in any discussions or communications with any employee of Employer or Subsidiary concerning such
employee’s employment or the possibility of such employee’s leaving his employment or (b) contact, communicate or solicit any customer of Employer or Subsidiary derived from any customer list, customer lead, mail, printed matter or
other information secured from Employer, Subsidiary or their present or past employees, or (c) in any other manner use any customer lists or customer leads, mail, email addresses, telephone numbers, printed material or material of Employer or
Subsidiary relating thereto. 
  
 10. Miscellaneous: 
  
 10.1. All notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder
or necessary or convenient in connection herewith shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given when mailed by registered mail or certified mail, return receipt requested, as follows (provided that notice of change of address shall be
deemed given only when received): 
  
 If to Employer or
Subsidiary, then notice must be given to: 
  
 AmeriCredit Corp.

 801 Cherry Street, Suite 3900 
 Fort Worth, Texas 76102 
 Attention: Daniel E. Berce 
 President and Chief Executive Officer 
  
 If to Employee, to: 
  
 Mark Floyd 
 4129 Ranier Ct. 
 Fort Worth, TX 76109 
  
 or to such other names or addresses as Employer, Subsidiary or Employee, as the case may be, shall designate by notice to the other party hereto in the manner specified
in this Section 10.1. 
  
 10.2. This Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of Employer, its successors, legal representatives and assigns, and upon Employee, his heirs, executors, administrators, representatives and assigns. Employee agrees that his rights and obligations hereunder are
personal to him and may not be assigned without the express written consent of Employer and Subsidiary. 
  
 10.3. This Agreement may not be modified in any respect by any verbal statement, representation or agreement made by any employee, officer, or
representative of Employer or Subsidiary or by any written agreement unless signed by an officer of Employer who is expressly authorized by Employer to execute such document. 
  
 10.4. (a) If any provision of this Agreement or application thereof to anyone or under any circumstances shall be
determined to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions or applications of this Agreement which can be given effect without the invalid or unenforceable provision or application.

  
 (b) Without intending to limit the remedies available to
Employer or Subsidiary, it is mutually understood and agreed that Employee’s services are of a special, unique, unusual, extraordinary and intellectual character giving them a peculiar value, the loss of which cannot be reasonably or adequately
compensated in damages in an action at law, and, therefore, in the event of a breach by Employee, Employer shall be entitled to equitable relief by way of injunction or otherwise. 







 (c) Employee acknowledges that Sections 4, 8 and 9 are expressly for the benefit of Employer and
Subsidiary, that Employer and Subsidiary would be irreparably injured by a violation of Section 4, 8 and/or 9 and that Employer or Subsidiary would have no adequate remedy at law in the event of such violation. Therefore, Employee acknowledges
and agrees that injunctive relief, specific performance or any other appropriate equitable remedy (without any bond or other security being required) are appropriate remedies to enforce compliance by Employer with Section 4, Section 8 and
Section 9. 
  
 10.5. Employee acknowledges that, from time to
time, Employer or Subsidiary may establish, maintain and distribute employee manuals or handbooks or personnel policy manuals, and officers or other representatives of Employer or Subsidiary may make written or oral statements relating to personnel
policies and procedures. Such manuals, handbooks and statements are intended only for general guidance. No policies, procedures or statements of any nature by or on behalf of Employer or Subsidiary (whether written or oral, and whether or not
contained in any employee manual or handbook or personnel policy manual), and no acts or practices of any nature shall be construed to modify this Agreement or to create express or implied obligations of any nature to Employee. 
  
 10.6. The laws of the State of Texas will govern the interpretation, validity
and effect of this Agreement without regard to the place of execution or the place for performance thereof, and Employer and Employee agree that the state and federal courts situated in Tarrant County, Texas shall have personal jurisdiction over
Employer and Employee to hear all disputes arising under this Agreement. This Agreement is to be at least partially performed in Tarrant County, Texas, and, as such, Employer and Employee agree that venue shall be proper with the state or federal
courts in Tarrant County, Texas to hear such disputes. In the event either Employer or Employee is not able to effect service of process upon the other with respect to such disputes, Employer and Employee expressly agree that the Secretary of State
for the State of Texas shall be an agent of Employer and/or the Employee to receive service of process on behalf of Employer and/or the Employee with respect to such disputes. 
  
 11. Additional Instruments: 
  
 Employee and Employer shall execute and deliver any and all additional instruments and agreements that may be necessary or proper to carry out the
purposes of this Agreement. 
  
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the
undersigned, intending to be legally bound, have executed this Agreement as of the date first written above.
