                                 INTERTAN, INC.

                         RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

          THIS AGREEMENT, made as of the 4th day of October, 2000, by and
between INTERTAN, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and Brian Levy
("Executive");

                              W I T N E S S E T H:

          WHEREAS, the Organization and Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors of the Company (the "Committee") acting under the Restricted Stock
Unit Plan of the Company effective as of October 2, 2000 (the "Plan") has
determined that it is desirable to award Restricted Stock Units (as defined in
the Plan) to Executive under the Plan; and

          WHEREAS, pursuant to the Plan, the Committee has determined that the
Restricted Stock Units so awarded shall be subject to the restrictions, terms
and conditions of this Agreement;

          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants
and agreements herein contained, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

          1. Restricted Stock Unit Award. On the terms and conditions and
             ---------------------------
subject to the restrictions hereinafter set forth, the Company hereby makes to
Executive, and Executive hereby accepts, a Restricted Stock Unit Award (the
"Award") of an aggregate of 30,000 units (the "Units"), with each Unit
representing a right to acquire one share of common stock, par value $1.00 per
share ("Common Stock"), of the Company. The Award is made effective as of the
date of this Agreement (the "Effective Date"). The Units are fictional devices
for determining the number of shares of Common Stock (the "Shares") to be issued
to Executive upon the satisfaction of applicable vesting conditions set forth
herein and do not constitute a Common Stock equivalent or represent any interest
in or right to the Company's securities. A certificate representing the Shares
underlying the Units shall be delivered to Executive upon vesting of such Units
as hereinafter set forth.

          2. Vesting of Restricted Units.
             ----------------------------

          (a) One-third of the Units shall be vested as of the Effective Date,
and as soon as practicable after the effectiveness of a registration statement
on Form S-8 to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, a
stock certificate for the Shares underlying such Units shall be issued and
delivered to Executive.

          (b) The balance of the Units covered hereby (the "Restricted Units")
shall be subject to a vesting period that shall commence on the Effective Date
and shall terminate on June 30, 2002 (the "Restricted Period"). The maximum
number of Restricted Units that may be fully vested as of the end of each fiscal
year during the Restricted Period shall be as follows:

               (iii) Limitation on Vesting. Under no circumstances shall
                     ---------------------
Executive become vested with respect to a number of Restricted Units that

Three-Year Adjustment Provision set forth in subsections (i) and (ii),
respectively, above.

               (iv) Consolidated Operating Income. The Company's consolidated
                    -----------------------------
operating income or consolidated operating income growth for any year shall be
as determined by the Company's independent auditors.

          (c) The Restricted Units shall be forfeited to the Company at no cost
to the Company if Executive's employment with the Company or a subsidiary of the
Company terminates prior to the vesting of such Restricted Units; provided,
however, that the Restricted Units shall become fully vested upon (i)
Executive's termination of employment during the Restricted Period due to death,
(ii) the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined below) during the
Restricted Period, or (iii) the involuntary termination of Executive's
employment with the Company during the Restricted Period for any reason other
than Just Cause (as defined below), if within a one year period beginning on the
date of such termination there occurs a Change of Control. Transfer of
employment without interruption of service between or among the Company and any
of its subsidiaries shall not be considered a termination of employment.

          (d) Upon the vesting of the Restricted Units, the restrictions
applicable to the Restricted Units shall terminate, and as soon as practicable
thereafter a stock certificate for the number of Shares underlying the
Restricted Units that have vested, shall be delivered to Executive or
Executive's beneficiary or estate, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Shares underlying the Restricted Units that have vested may only
be sold by Executive in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended.

          (e) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (i) the
Committee shall have the right to waive all or any portion of any outstanding
vesting conditions prior to the termination of such vesting conditions with
respect to any or all of the Restricted Units on such terms and conditions as
the Committee may, in writing, deem appropriate and (ii) the provisions of this
Section 2 are subject to the provisions of the Plan.

          (f) For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the
indicated meanings:

          Change in Control: A "Change in Control" shall be deemed to have
occurred in the event that:

               (i) any person, corporation, partnership, association, joint
stock company, trust, unincorporated organization, or government, including a
political subdivision thereof (or any combination thereof acting for the purpose
of acquiring, holding, voting, or disposing of equity securities of the
Company), acquires beneficial ownership of at least twenty percent (20%) of the
then issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Company; or

               (ii) on any day more than fifty percent (50%) of the members of
the Board of Directors of the Company (excluding those members replacing
deceased directors) were not directors two (2) years prior to such date; or

               (iii) substantially all the assets of the Company are sold or the
Company is merged or consolidated or otherwise acquired by or with another
corporation (other than a subsidiary of the Company) unless, as the result of
any such merger, consolidation, or acquisition, (a) the Company is the surviving
entity, and (b) not more than twenty percent (20%) of the Company's then issued
and outstanding Common Stock is sold or exchanged as the result of such merger,
consolidation, or acquisition.

               (iv) Any provision hereof to the contrary notwithstanding, any
shares of the Company's Common Stock sold or exchanged as the result of any
acquisition agreement initiated by the Company whereby the Company acquires
control of or substantially all the assets of another corporation shall not
constitute a Change of Control.

          Just Cause: The term "Just Cause" shall mean dishonest or fraudulent
conduct of Executive or the conviction of Executive of a crime involving moral
turpitude.

          3. No Rights as Stockholder. Until the issuance of a certificate or
             ------------------------
certificates representing all or any portion of the Shares underlying the
Restricted Units to Executive, Executive

                                       4
<PAGE>

shall have no rights as a stockholder, including voting rights, the right to
receive dividends and distributions with respect to and the right to transfer,
pledge, exchange hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the Shares underlying the
Restricted Units; provided that the number of shares underlying each Restricted
Unit may be adjusted in accordance with Section 4.

          4. Adjustments. In the event the Company shall effect a split of its
             -----------
Common Stock or dividend payable in Common Stock, or in the event the
outstanding Common Stock shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the
maximum number of Shares underlying the Restricted Units shall be increased or
decreased proportionately.

          In the event of a reclassification of the Common Stock not covered by
the foregoing, or in the event of a liquidation or reorganization, including a
merger, consolidation or sale of assets, the Board of Directors shall make such
adjustments, if any, as it may deem appropriate in the number and kind of Shares
underlying the Restricted Units. The provisions of this Section shall only be
applicable if, and only to the extent that, the application thereof does not
conflict with any valid governmental statute, regulation or rule.

          5. Withholding Taxes.
             -----------------

          (a) No later than the date of the issuance of Shares underlying any of
the Restricted Units set forth herein, Executive will pay to the Company or its
subsidiaries for remittance to the tax authorities, or make arrangements
satisfactory to the Committee regarding payment of, any foreign, federal,
provincial or local taxes of any kind ("Taxes") required by law to be withheld
with respect to the Restricted Units with respect to which such restrictions
have terminated.

          (b) Any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding,
if Executive does not otherwise satisfy the obligation of Executive under
Section 5(a) of this Agreement, then the Company and its subsidiaries shall, to
the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct from any payments of any
kind otherwise due from the Company or its subsidiaries to or with respect to
Executive, whether or not pursuant to this Agreement or the Plan and regardless
of the form of payment, any Taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to
vested Shares underlying the Restricted Units and shall remit such Taxes to the
tax authorities on behalf of Executive.

             -----------------
Executive.

          7. Plan Provisions. By execution of this Agreement, Executive agrees
             ---------------

provisions of the Plan. This Agreement is subject to the Plan, and the Plan
shall govern where there is any inconsistency between the Plan and this
Agreement.

          8. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
             -------------
and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without
regard to the principles of conflicts of laws thereof.

          9. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to
             --------------
the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal
representatives, successors and permitted assigns;

                                       5
<PAGE>

provided, however, that Executive shall not assign or otherwise transfer this
Agreement or any of Executive's rights or obligations hereunder.

          10. Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement constitutes the entire
              ---------------------------
agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof
and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, whether written or oral,
between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. Without limiting

applicable law, this Agreement may be amended, modified and supplemented by
mutual consent of the parties hereto at any time, with respect to any of the
terms contained herein, in such manner as may be agreed upon in writing by such
parties.

Executive had theretofore specified for receiving notices. Until such address is
changed in accordance herewith, notices under this Agreement shall be delivered

the Company or (b) to the Company at the principal executive offices of the
Company clearly marked "Attention: President."

          12. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
              ------------
unenforceable, this Agreement shall be considered divisible and such provision
shall be deemed inoperative to the extent it is deemed unenforceable, and in all
other respects this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect; provided,
however, that if any such provision may be made enforceable by limitation
thereof, then such provision shall be deemed to be so limited and shall be
enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

                         RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

          THIS AGREEMENT, made as of the 4th day of October, 2000, by and
between INTERTAN, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and James G.
Gingerich ("Executive");

                              W I T N E S S E T H:

          WHEREAS, the Organization and Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors of the Company (the "Committee") acting under the Restricted Stock
Unit Plan of the Company effective as of October 2, 2000 (the "Plan") has
determined that it is desirable to award Restricted Stock Units (as defined in
the Plan) to Executive under the Plan; and

          WHEREAS, pursuant to the Plan, the Committee has determined that the
Restricted Stock Units so awarded shall be subject to the restrictions, terms
and conditions of this Agreement;

          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants
and agreements herein contained, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

          1. Restricted Stock Unit Award. On the terms and conditions and
             ---------------------------
subject to the restrictions hereinafter set forth, the Company hereby makes to
Executive, and Executive hereby accepts, a Restricted Stock Unit Award (the
"Award") of an aggregate of 12,000 units (the "Units"), with each Unit
representing a right to acquire one share of common stock, par value $1.00 per
share ("Common Stock"), of the Company. The Award is made effective as of the
date of this Agreement (the "Effective Date"). The Units are fictional devices
for determining the number of shares of Common Stock (the "Shares") to be issued

               (C) If the consolidated operating income growth of the Company

operating income of the fiscal year ending June 30, 1999, then all Restricted
Units not yet fully vested shall vest in their entirety on the date the
Company's consolidated operating growth for the three fiscal years ending June
30, 2002 is determined as provided in subparagraph (iv) below (the "Adjustment
Vesting Date").

ending June 30, 2002 is at least 10% but does not exceed 15% compared to the
consolidated operating income of the fiscal year ending June 30, 1999, the

               (iii) Limitation on Vesting. Under no circumstances shall
                     ---------------------
Executive become vested with respect to a number of Restricted Units that
exceeds his or her maximum entitlement under the Annual Vesting Provision or the
Three-Year Adjustment Provision set forth in subsections (i) and (ii),
respectively, above.

               (iv) Consolidated Operating Income. The Company's consolidated
                    -----------------------------
operating income or consolidated operating income growth for any year shall be
as determined by the Company's independent auditors.

          (c) The Restricted Units shall be forfeited to the Company at no cost
to the Company if Executive's employment with the Company or a subsidiary of the
Company terminates prior to the vesting of such Restricted Units; provided,
however, that the Restricted Units shall become fully vested upon (i)
Executive's termination of employment during the Restricted Period due to death,
(ii) the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined below) during the
Restricted Period, or (iii) the involuntary termination of Executive's
employment with the Company during the Restricted Period for any reason other
than Just Cause (as defined below), if within a one year period beginning on the
date of such termination there occurs a Change of Control. Transfer of
employment without interruption of service between or among the Company and any
of its subsidiaries shall not be considered a termination of employment.

<PAGE>

            (d) Upon the vesting of the Restricted Units, the restrictions
applicable to the Restricted Units shall terminate, and as soon as practicable
thereafter a stock certificate for the number of Shares underlying the
Restricted Units that have vested, shall be delivered to Executive or
Executive's beneficiary or estate, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Shares underlying the Restricted Units that have vested may only
be sold by Executive in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended.

          (e) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (i) the
Committee shall have the right to waive all or any portion of any outstanding
vesting conditions prior to the termination of such vesting conditions with
respect to any or all of the Restricted Units on such terms and conditions as
the Committee may, in writing, deem appropriate and (ii) the provisions of this
Section 2 are subject to the provisions of the Plan.

          (f) For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the
indicated meanings:

          Change in Control: A "Change in Control" shall be deemed to have
occurred in the event that:

               (i) any person, corporation, partnership, association, joint
stock company, trust, unincorporated organization, or government, including a
political subdivision thereof (or any combination thereof acting for the purpose
of acquiring, holding, voting, or disposing of equity securities of the
Company), acquires beneficial ownership of at least twenty percent (20%) of the
then issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Company; or

               (ii) on any day more than fifty percent (50%) of the members of
the Board of Directors of the Company (excluding those members replacing
deceased directors) were not directors two (2) years prior to such date; or

               (iii) substantially all the assets of the Company are sold or the
Company is merged or consolidated or otherwise acquired by or with another
corporation (other than a subsidiary of the Company) unless, as the result of
any such merger, consolidation, or acquisition, (a) the Company is the surviving
entity, and (b) not more than twenty percent (20%) of the Company's then issued
and outstanding Common Stock is sold or exchanged as the result of such merger,
consolidation, or acquisition.

               (iv) Any provision hereof to the contrary notwithstanding, any
shares of the Company's Common Stock sold or exchanged as the result of any
acquisition agreement initiated by the Company whereby the Company acquires
control of or substantially all the assets of another corporation shall not
constitute a Change of Control.

          Just Cause: The term "Just Cause" shall mean dishonest or fraudulent
conduct of Executive or the conviction of Executive of a crime involving moral
turpitude.

          3. No Rights as Stockholder. Until the issuance of a certificate or
             ------------------------
certificates representing all or any portion of the Shares underlying the
Restricted Units to Executive, Executive

                                       4
<PAGE>

shall have no rights as a stockholder, including voting rights, the right to
receive dividends and distributions with respect to and the right to transfer,
pledge, exchange hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the Shares underlying the
Restricted Units; provided that the number of shares underlying each Restricted
Unit may be adjusted in accordance with Section 4.

          4. Adjustments. In the event the Company shall effect a split of its
             -----------
Common Stock or dividend payable in Common Stock, or in the event the
outstanding Common Stock shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the
maximum number of Shares underlying the Restricted Units shall be increased or
decreased proportionately.

          In the event of a reclassification of the Common Stock not covered by
the foregoing, or in the event of a liquidation or reorganization, including a
merger, consolidation or sale of assets, the Board of Directors shall make such
adjustments, if any, as it may deem appropriate in the number and kind of Shares
underlying the Restricted Units. The provisions of this Section shall only be
applicable if, and only to the extent that, the application thereof does not
conflict with any valid governmental statute, regulation or rule.

          5. Withholding Taxes.
             -----------------

          (a) No later than the date of the issuance of Shares underlying any of
the Restricted Units set forth herein, Executive will pay to the Company or its
subsidiaries for remittance to the tax authorities, or make arrangements
satisfactory to the Committee regarding payment of, any foreign, federal,
provincial or local taxes of any kind ("Taxes") required by law to be withheld
with respect to the Restricted Units with respect to which such restrictions
have terminated.

          (b) Any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding,
if Executive does not otherwise satisfy the obligation of Executive under
Section 5(a) of this Agreement, then the Company and its subsidiaries shall, to
the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct from any payments of any
kind otherwise due from the Company or its subsidiaries to or with respect to
Executive, whether or not pursuant to this Agreement or the Plan and regardless
of the form of payment, any Taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to
vested Shares underlying the Restricted Units and shall remit such Taxes to the
tax authorities on behalf of Executive.

          6. Non-Assignability. The Award is not assignable or transferable by
             -----------------
Executive.

          7. Plan Provisions. By execution of this Agreement, Executive agrees
             ---------------
that the Award and the Units shall be governed by and subject to all applicable
provisions of the Plan. This Agreement is subject to the Plan, and the Plan
shall govern where there is any inconsistency between the Plan and this
Agreement.

          8. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
             -------------
and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without
regard to the principles of conflicts of laws thereof.

          9. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to
             --------------
the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal
representatives, successors and permitted assigns;

                                       5
<PAGE>

provided, however, that Executive shall not assign or otherwise transfer this
Agreement or any of Executive's rights or obligations hereunder.

          10. Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement constitutes the entire
              ---------------------------
agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof
and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, whether written or oral,
between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the parties hereto agree and acknowledge that
this Agreement and the awards granted herein supersede the letter dated June 9,
1999 and any awards referenced therein. To the fullest extent provided by
applicable law, this Agreement may be amended, modified and supplemented by
mutual consent of the parties hereto at any time, with respect to any of the
terms contained herein, in such manner as may be agreed upon in writing by such
parties.

          11. Notices. All notices required or permitted to be given or made
              -------

back is received. The Company or Executive may change, at any time and from time
to time, by written notice to the other, the address that the Company or
Executive had theretofore specified for receiving notices. Until such address is
changed in accordance herewith, notices under this Agreement shall be delivered
or sent (a) to Executive at Executive's address as set forth in the records of
the Company or (b) to the Company at the principal executive offices of the
Company clearly marked "Attention: President."

          12. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
              ------------
unenforceable, this Agreement shall be considered divisible and such provision
shall be deemed inoperative to the extent it is deemed unenforceable, and in all
other respects this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect; provided,
however, that if any such provision may be made enforceable by limitation
thereof, then such provision shall be deemed to be so limited and shall be
enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

          13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto
