2010 NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR COMPENSATION PLAN 

ARTICLE 1 

PURPOSE 

1.1. BACKGROUND. This plan is adopted to aggregate and formalize the Company’s compensation policies for non-employee
directors of the Company, including all cash and equity-based compensation. The Board adopted the Global Payments Inc. Amended and Restated 2000 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan on September 14, 2000, which became effective on
February 1, 2001 and was most recently amended on September 30, 2010 (the “Prior Plan”). The Prior Plan will expire by its terms on the second day following the 2010 annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders, and is
hereby replaced by this 2010 Non-Employee Director Compensation Plan (the “Director Subplan” or “the Plan”) as of the Effective Date as defined below. 

The Director Subplan is considered to be and shall be operated as a subplan of the Global Payments Inc. Amended and Restated 2005
Incentive Plan (the “2005 Incentive Plan”), established pursuant to Section 4.3 of the 2005 Incentive Plan. 

1.2. PURPOSE. The purpose of the Plan is to attract, retain and compensate highly-qualified individuals who are not
employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates for service as members of the Board by providing them with competitive compensation and an equity interest in the Company. The Company intends that the Plan will benefit the Company
and its shareholders by allowing Non-Employee Directors to have a personal financial stake in the Company through an ownership interest in the Company’s Stock and will closely associate the interests of Non-Employee Directors with that of the
Company’s shareholders. 
 1.3. ELIGIBILITY. Non-Employee Directors of the Company who are Eligible Participants, as
defined below, shall automatically be participants in the Plan. 
 ARTICLE 2

ADMINISTRATION 

3.1. ADMINISTRATION. The Director Subplan shall be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the
“Committee”). Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall be authorized to interpret such plan, to establish, amend and rescind any rules and regulations relating to the Plan, and to make all other determinations necessary
or advisable for the administration of the Plan. The Committee’s interpretation of the Plan, and all actions taken and determinations made by the Committee pursuant to the powers vested in it hereunder, shall be conclusive and binding upon all
parties concerned including the Company, its shareholders and persons granted awards under the Plan. The Committee may appoint a plan administrator to carry out the ministerial functions of the Plan, but the administrator shall have no other
authority or powers of the Committee. 
 3.2. RELIANCE. In administering the Director Subplan, the Committee may rely
upon any information furnished by the Company, its public accountants and other experts. No individual will have personal liability by reason of anything done or omitted to be done by the Company or the Committee in connection with the Plan. This

and any such awards shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the 2005 Incentive Plan. In the event of any actual or alleged conflict between the provisions of the Incentive Plan and the provisions of this Plan, the provisions of the
Incentive Plan shall be controlling and determinative. This Plan does not constitute a separate source of shares for the grant of the Equity Awards described herein. 

ARTICLE 5 

CASH COMPENSATION 

5.1. BASIC CASH RETAINER. Each Eligible Participant shall be paid a Basic Cash Retainer for service as a director during
each Plan Year, payable in advance, 
  

 4 

 
on the first business day following each annual meeting of shareholders. The amount of the Basic Cash Retainer shall be established from time to time by the Board. The amount of the Basic Cash
Retainer is set forth in Schedule I, as amended from time to time by the Board. Each person who first becomes an Eligible Participant on a date other than an annual meeting date shall be paid a pro rata amount of the Basic Cash Retainer for that
Plan Year to reflect the actual number of days served in the Plan Year. 
 5.2. SUPPLEMENTAL CASH RETAINER. The
Lead Director and the chairs of each committee of the Board may be paid a Supplemental Cash Retainer during a Plan Year, payable at the same times as installments of the Basic Cash Retainer are paid. The amount of the Supplemental Cash Retainers
shall be established from time to time by the Board, and shall be set forth in Schedule I, as amended from time to time by the Board. A pro-rata Supplemental Cash Retainer will be paid to any Eligible Participant who is elected by the Board to a
position eligible for a Supplemental Cash Retainer on a date other than the beginning of a Plan Year, to reflect the actual number of days served in such eligible capacity during the Plan Year. 

5.3. MEETING FEES. Each Eligible Participant shall be paid a fee for each meeting of the Board or committee thereof in
which he or she participates. The amount of the fees shall be established from time to time by the Board and shall be set forth in Schedule I, as amended from time to time by the Board. For purposes of this provision, casual or unscheduled
conferences among directors shall not constitute an official meeting. 
 5.4. EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT. All Eligible
Participants shall be reimbursed for reasonable travel and out-of-pocket expenses in connection with attendance at meetings of the Board and its committees, or other Company functions at which the Chief Executive Officer or the Lead Director
requests the Director to participate. 
 ARTICLE 6 

EQUITY COMPENSATION 

6.1. STOCK AWARDS. Subject to share availability under the 2005 Incentive Plan, each Eligible Participant shall be granted
an award of fully-vested Stock on the day that he or she first becomes an Eligible Participant (“Initial Stock Grant”). In addition, subject to share availability under the 2005 Incentive Plan, each Eligible Participant in service on the
day following an annual shareholders meeting will receive an award of fully-vested Stock (“Annual Stock Grant” and collectively with the Initial Stock Grant, the “Stock Grants”). Each such day that such awards are to be granted
under the Plan is referred to hereinafter as a “Grant Date.” The Stock Grants shall have the following terms and conditions: 

(a) Number of Shares in the Initial Stock Grant. The number of shares in the Initial Stock Grant to an Eligible Participant shall
be determined by multiplying the 
  

 5 

 
Proration Factor (as defined below) by the amount determined by (A) dividing the Annual Stock Retainer as in effect for that Plan Year, by the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the Grant
Date, and (B) rounding to the nearest whole number. The Proration Factor is a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days of service as a Non-Employee Director between the Grant Date and the next annual shareholders’ meeting
date, and the denominator of which is the number of days in the applicable Plan Year. 
 (b) Number of Shares in Annual Stock
Grants. The number of shares in the Annual Stock Grant to an Eligible Participant shall be determined by (A) dividing the Annual Stock Retainer as in effect for that Plan Year, by the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the Grant Date, and
(B) rounding to the nearest whole number. 
 (c) Other Plan Conditions. To the extent not specified herein, the
Stock Grants shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the 2005 Incentive Plan. 
 6.2. OPTION GRANTS.
Subject to share availability under the 2005 Incentive Plan, each Eligible Participant shall be granted an award of Nonstatutory Stock Options on the day that he or she first becomes an Eligible Participant (“Initial Options”). In
addition, subject to share availability under the 2005 Incentive Plan, each Eligible Participant in service on the day following an annual shareholders meeting will receive an award of Nonstatutory Stock Options (“Annual Options”, and
collectively with the Initial Options, the “Options”). Each such day that options are to be granted under the Plan is referred to hereinafter as a “Grant Date.” The Options shall have the following terms and conditions:

 (a) Number of Initial Options. The number of Initial Options to be granted to an Eligible Participant shall be
determined by multiplying the Proration Factor (as defined below) by the amount determined by (A) dividing the Annual Options Retainer as in effect for that Plan Year, by the Option Value as of the Grant Date, and (B) rounding to the
nearest whole number. The Proration Factor is a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days of service as a Non-Employee Director between the Grant Date and the next annual shareholders’ meeting date, and the denominator of which is
the number of days in the applicable Plan Year. 
 (b) Number of Annual Options. The number of Annual Options to be
granted to an Eligible Participant shall be determined by (A) dividing the Annual Options Retainer as in effect for that Plan Year, by the Option Value as of the Grant Date, and (B) rounding to the nearest whole number. 

(c) Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of each Option shall be the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on the Grant
Date. 
 (d) Term. Each Option shall, to the extent not previously exercised, terminate and expire on the date ten
(10) years after the Grant Date of such Option, unless earlier terminated as provided hereinafter in subsection 6.2(f) below. 
  

 6 

 (e) Exercisability. Except as set forth below, each Option shall vest (become
exercisable) in accordance with the following schedule: 
  

			
	 Years of Continuous Service as a

Director after Grant Date
	  	Percent of Option Shares Vested
	 1
	  	25%
	 2
	  	50%
	 3
	  	75%
	 4
	  	100%

 Notwithstanding the
foregoing, each Option shall vest (become exercisable) as to all of the shares covered thereby upon the termination of the grantee’s membership on the Board by reason of death, Disability, or Retirement. 

(f) Effect of Termination of Directorship. Upon termination of a grantee’s membership on the Board for any reason (including
without limitation by reason of death, Disability, or Retirement), his or her Options, to the extent they were exercisable on the date of termination (including any acceleration by reason of such termination) shall remain exercisable until the
earlier of (i) the original expiration date of the Option, or (ii) the fifth anniversary of the grantee’s termination as a director. In the event of the death of a grantee, the grantee’s personal representatives, heirs or
legatees may exercise such Options upon proof satisfactory to the Company of their authority. Such exercise otherwise shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. 

(g) Manner of Exercise. The Options granted hereunder may be exercised in any manner specified in the 2005 Incentive Plan, unless
otherwise limited by the award certificate. Specifically, payment, in whole or in part, may be made in cash; by the delivery of shares of Stock previously held by the grantee; by net settlement based upon the attestation of ownership of shares of
Stock previously held by the grantee; by net settlement against Option shares otherwise deliverable; by the delivery of a notice that the grantee has placed a market sell order with a broker with respect to shares of Stock then issuable upon
exercise of the option, and that the broker has been directed to pay a sufficient portion of the net proceeds of the sale to the Company in satisfaction of the exercise price; or by any combination of the foregoing means of providing consideration.

 (h) Transferability of Options. Any Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall be assignable or transferable by the
grantee by will, by the laws of descent and distribution, or pursuant to a domestic relations order that would satisfy Section 414(p)(1)(A) of the Code if such provision applied to an Option under the Plan. In addition, any Option shall be
transferable by the grantee to any of the following permitted transferees, upon such reasonable terms and conditions as the Board may establish: (i) any child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse,
sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law, including adoptive relationships, any person sharing the grantee’s household (other than a tenant or employee), (ii) a
trust in which the foregoing persons (or the grantee) have more than fifty percent of the beneficial interests, (iii) a 
  

 7 

 
foundation in which these persons (or the grantee) control the management of assets, or (iv) any other entity in which these persons (or the grantee) own more than fifty percent of the
voting interests. 
 (i) Other Plan Conditions. To the extent not specified herein, the Options granted hereunder shall
be subject to the terms and conditions of the 2005 Incentive Plan. 
 6.3. ADJUSTMENTS. For the avoidance of
doubt, the adjustment provisions of the 2005 Incentive Plan (along with all of the other provisions of the 2005 Incentive Plan) shall apply with respect to all Equity Awards granted pursuant to this Plan. 

6.4. AWARD CERTIFICATES. All unvested Equity Awards granted pursuant to this Plan shall be evidenced by a written award
certificate, which shall include such provisions, not inconsistent with the Plan or the 2005 Incentive Plan, as may be specified by the Committee. The form of applicable award certificates shall be set forth on Schedule II hereof, as amended from
time to time by the Committee. 
 ARTICLE 7 

AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION 

7.1. AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION. The Board may, at any time and from time to time, amend, modify or terminate
the Plan without shareholder approval; provided, however, that if an amendment to the Plan would, in the reasonable opinion of the Board, require shareholder approval under applicable laws, policies or regulations or the applicable listing or other
requirements of a securities exchange on which the Stock is listed or traded, then such amendment shall be subject to shareholder approval; and provided further, that the Board may condition any other amendment or modification on the approval of
shareholders of the Company for any reason. Modification of Equity Awards granted under this Plan shall be subject to the provisions of the 2005 Incentive Plan. 

ARTICLE 8 

GENERAL PROVISIONS 

8.1. DURATION OF THE PLAN. The Plan shall remain in effect until terminated by the Board or the earlier termination or
