         WHEREAS, the parties hereto have entered into that certain Employment
Agreement (the "Initial Agreement"), dated as of January 1, 1999, as amended by
that certain First Amendment to Employment Agreement (the "First Amendment"),
dated as of December 31, 1999 (the Initial Agreement and the First Amendment are
collectively referred to herein as the "Original Agreement"), providing for the
employment of Employee by CompuCredit on the terms and conditions therein;

         WHEREAS, in consideration of, among other things, CompuCredit's

to devote 100% of her business efforts to CompuCredit; and

         WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to amend and restate the Original
Agreement in its entirety to reflect the above changes as well as changes to
other terms and conditions of Employee's employment with CompuCredit;

         NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the Employee's continued
employment with CompuCredit and the premises and the mutual covenants and
agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, CompuCredit and
Employee hereby agree to amend and restate the Original Agreement as follows and
hereby intend that the parties' respective rights, duties and obligations with
respect to Employee's employment with CompuCredit shall hereinafter be set forth

no business activities other than the performance of her obligations and duties
hereunder, except for those specific activities as the CEO of CompuCredit shall
approve in advance in writing. Employee

shall perform her obligations and duties hereunder diligently, faithfully and
to the best of her abilities and, in doing so, shall comply with applicable
CompuCredit policies and procedures. During the "Term" (as defined below)
Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, make any advance, loan, extension
of credit or capital contribution to, or purchase any stocks, bonds or other
securities of, or make any investment in, any individual, partnership,
corporation, limited liability company, trust, trustee, joint stock company,
unincorporated organization, joint venture, association, governmental
authority or other entity (each, an "Entity") other than CompuCredit without
the prior written consent of the CEO of CompuCredit; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
Employee shall be permitted to have a direct or indirect equity ownership of
no greater than 2% of the equity of an Entity listed on a major U.S. exchange
or traded on a NASDAQ over-the-counter market.

         2.0      TERM; TERMINATION.

Agreement shall commence on the effective date hereof and shall continue for an
initial term (the "Initial Term") of three (3) years, unless sooner terminated
in accordance with Section 2.2. Upon expiration of the Initial Term, Employee's
employment hereunder shall be continued (upon the same terms, subject to the
same conditions and at the same salary or at a salary agreed to by both
CompuCredit and Employee) after such expiration indefinitely on an at will
basis, subject to termination at any time by either party on not less than
thirty (30) days prior written notice by either party, or as otherwise provided
pursuant to Section 2.2 of this Agreement. The Initial Term and any additional
period of time Employee is employed by CompuCredit thereafter shall be
collectively referred to as the "Term."

perform fully and effectively, as determined in the reasonable judgment of a
competent physician selected in good faith by CompuCredit, the Services on a
full time basis for an aggregate of 90 days in any period of 180 consecutive
days.

                  (c) In addition to any other rights or remedies available to

employment for Cause effective immediately upon delivery of written notice to
Employee. In this Agreement, "Cause" means the reasonable, good faith
determination of a majority of the Board of Directors of CompuCredit that:

                  CompuCredit; (B) Employee has embezzled funds or assets from
                  CompuCredit or any client or customer of CompuCredit; (C)

                           (ii) Employee has breached or defaulted in the
                  performance of any other provision of this Agreement and has
                  not cured such breach or default to CompuCredit's reasonable
                  satisfaction within thirty (30) days after receiving notice
                  thereof; or

                           (iii) Employee's conduct is materially detrimental to
                  the reputation of CompuCredit which Employee has not cured (if
                  such conduct is curable in Employer's reasonable opinion) to
                  CompuCredit's reasonable satisfaction within ten (10) days
                  after receiving notice thereof.

                  (d) The date on which Employee's employment expires or

                  (a) During the Term, CompuCredit shall pay Employee as
compensation for the Services an annual salary as set forth on EXHIBIT A hereto
and incorporated herein by reference. Such compensation shall be payable in
substantially equal semi-monthly installments or in such other installments or
at such other intervals as may be the policy of CompuCredit from time to time,
and shall be subject to such deductions and withholdings as are required by law

and Employee.

                  (b) Employee shall be entitled to receive a $100,000 bonus per
year based on a net income per common share target that is mutually established

policies related to incentive compensation. Subject to section 3(d) below, any
bonus earned by Employee shall be prorated for any partial fiscal year worked by
Employee.
                  (c) At a meeting of the Compensation Committee of
CompuCredit's Board of Directors (the "Committee") held on the date hereof, the
Committee has granted to Employee an option (the "2000 Plan Option") to purchase
seventy-five thousand (75,000) shares of CompuCredit's common stock under
CompuCredit's 2000 Stock Option Plan at a price equal to the fair market value
of CompuCredit's common stock on the effective date of such grant. Each of such
Options shall vest 33.3% on each anniversary of the grant date, shall terminate

shareholders of CompuCredit at its next annual meeting.

                  (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if this
Agreement is terminated for any of the reasons set forth in Section 2 hereof,
CompuCredit shall be released of its obligation to pay further compensation or
benefits to Employee as set forth in this Agreement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
Employee shall be entitled to receive (i) any salary already earned under
Section 3(a) above, and (ii) a portion of any previously agreed upon bonus
(prorated based upon full months worked by Employee) for any fiscal year in
which Employee worked for CompuCredit for at least 6 months. Employee will not
be entitled to any severance or other benefits upon any termination of her
employment hereunder.

                  (e) If, during the Initial Term, CompuCredit defaults
hereunder by terminating Employee's employment (other than pursuant to Section 2
hereof), Employee shall be entitled to compensation paid in accordance with this
Section 3 for the remainder of the Initial Term.

         4.0 VACATION. Employee shall be entitled to such number of weeks of
paid vacation in each calendar year of the Term as is provided in, and in
accordance with, CompuCredit's policies in effect from time to time for
management employees.

         5.0 BENEFITS. Employee shall be entitled to participate in executive
employee benefit plans generally provided by CompuCredit to its executives, but
only if and to the extent provided from time to time in such executive benefits
plans and for so long as CompuCredit provides or offers such benefit plans.

         6.0 REIMBURSEMENT FOR EXPENSES. CompuCredit shall reimburse Employee
for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Employee in connection with
the performance of the Services hereunder for travel, entertainment and other
miscellaneous expenses to the extent such expenses are consistent with
CompuCredit's reimbursement policy as the same shall be in effect from time to
time. Reimbursement shall be made only against an itemized list of such expenses
submitted to CompuCredit by Employee within thirty (30) days after being
incurred, and, to the extent requested by CompuCredit, receipts and invoices
evidencing such expenses.

         7.0      CONFIDENTIALITY.

                  (a) PROPRIETARY INFORMATION. Employee acknowledges that as an
employee of CompuCredit, she may from time to time have access to and be
provided with trade secrets (as defined under applicable law), and other
confidential, secret and proprietary information including without limitation,
financial statements or information, technical or nontechnical data, formulae,
compilations, programs, methods, data, financial plans, models, product plans,
marketing or sales strategies, portfolio information, or lists of actual or
potential borrowers, loan

                                       4

<PAGE>

program participants or other customers not generally available to the public
concerning any aspect of the products, services or businesses of CompuCredit,
its affiliates, or its and their officers, directors, employees, advisers,
agents or other personnel (collectively, "Proprietary Information"). Employee
agrees that she will not, directly or indirectly, disclose, publish,
disseminate or use any confidential information except as authorized herein.
Employee may use confidential information to perform the Services but in
doing so will only allow dissemination of confidential information to any
Entity on a strict need-to-know basis (provided such persons are first
informed of the confidential nature of such information and directed to use
or disclose it only as permitted herein). If disclosure of any Confidential
Information is required by law, a court or agency of the government, then
Employee may make such disclosure after providing CompuCredit with reasonable
notice, to the extent that providing such notice to CompuCredit is legally
permissible, so that CompuCredit may seek protective relief.

                  (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7(a) above, the
following shall not be considered to be Proprietary information: (i) any
information that was in the public domain through no fault or act of Employee
prior to the disclosure thereof to Employee; (ii) any information that came to
Employee during any employment prior to that with CompuCredit; (iii) any
information that comes into the public domain through no fault or act of
Employee; and (iv) any confidential business information that is not a trade
secret on the three (3) year anniversary of the Termination Date; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the limited duration of the confidentiality obligation with regard
to Proprietary Information not constituting a trade secret shall not operate or
be construed as affording Employee any right or license thereafter to use
Proprietary Information, or as a waiver by CompuCredit of the rights and
benefits otherwise available to CompuCredit under the laws governing the
protection and enforceability of patents, trade secret and other intellectual
property.

                  (c) RETURN OF MATERIALS. On or before the Termination Date, or
when otherwise requested by CompuCredit, Employee will deliver promptly to
CompuCredit all Proprietary Information and all other files, customer lists,
management reports, drawings, memoranda, forms, financial data and reports and
other materials or documents and equipment provided to, or obtained or created
by Employee in connection with the Services (including all copies of the
foregoing, and including all notes, records and other materials of or relating
to CompuCredit or their respective customers) in her possession or control and
shall destroy all other Proprietary Information in her possession.

         8.0      TRANSFER AND ASSIGNMENT TO COMPUCREDIT.

                  (a) To the greatest extent possible, any Work Product will be
"work made for hire" (as defined in the Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C.A. ss. 101 ET
SEQ., as amended) and owned exclusively by CompuCredit. In this Agreement, "Work
Product" means work product, property, data, documentation, "know-how,"
concepts, plans, inventions, improvements, techniques, processes or information
of any kind, prepared, conceived, discovered, developed or created by Employee
while employed by CompuCredit. Employee hereby unconditionally and irrevocably

                                       5

<PAGE>

transfers and assigns to CompuCredit all right, title and interest Employee has
or will have, by operation of law or otherwise, in or to any Work Product,
including, without limitation, all patents, copyrights, trademarks, service
marks, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights. Employee agrees to
execute and deliver to CompuCredit any transfers or other instruments which
CompuCredit may deem necessary or appropriate to vest complete title and
ownership of any Work Product, and all rights therein, exclusively in
CompuCredit.

                  (b) POWER OF ATTORNEY. Employee hereby irrevocably constitutes
and appoints CompuCredit as her agent and attorney-in-fact, with full power of
substitution, in the name, place and stead of Employee, to execute and deliver
any and all assignments or other instruments described in Section 8(a) above
that Employee fails or refuses promptly to execute and deliver. The foregoing
power and agency are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable.

         9.0      COVENANT AGAINST COMPETITION.

                  (a) Employee acknowledges that the Proprietary Information
that she has acquired and will acquire, prior to and during the Term, includes
and will include information that could be used by Employee on behalf of a
Competitor (as hereinafter defined), its affiliates or others to the substantial
detriment of CompuCredit. Moreover, the parties recognize that Employee during
the course of her employment with CompuCredit will develop important
relationships with customers and others having valuable business relationships
with CompuCredit. In view of the foregoing, Employee acknowledges and agrees
that the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement are reasonably
necessary to protect CompuCredit's legitimate business interests and goodwill.
If Employee is terminated without Cause, she will only be bound by the covenant
against competition if CompuCredit elects to pay Employee her then current
salary for the one (1) year period of time from and after the Termination Date.

         10.0     RESTRICTIONS UPON SALE OF SHARES.

                  (a) In further consideration of the terms of employment
granted herein by CompuCredit to Employee, Employee hereby agrees that (i)
throughout the entire Term she will not, without CompuCredit's prior written
consent or except as otherwise provided in subsection (b) of this Section 10,
sell or dispose of more than 150,000 shares of CompuCredit's common stock owned
by her as of the date hereof, and (ii) in selling any CompuCredit shares of
common stock during the Term, as permitted by the preceding clause (i), she will
advise CompuCredit in advance of such sales and will use reasonable efforts to
effect such sales so as to minimize any adverse consequences to transactions
proposed by CompuCredit which involve its common stock.

                  (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a) above,
Employee may, throughout the entire Term, sell or dispose up to that number of
shares of CompuCredit common stock (inclusive of the 150,000 shares permitted
under subsection (a)) proportionate (in terms of equivalent percentage of
CompuCredit shares owned) to the number of shares of CompuCredit common stock
sold or disposed of during the Term by Frank J. Hanna III or David G. Hanna,

                  (c) The restrictions contained in this Section 10 shall lapse

company (which, for purposes hereof, means a company whose shares of common
stock are no longer traded on a national securities exchange or quoted on the
NASDAQ National Market System and are owned of record by not more than 100
shareholders) while still being controlled by Frank J. Hanna III and David G.

to provide that any cash dividends or shareholder distributions made while a
private company and prior to the Exercise Date shall be paid to Employee at the
time the Nonqualified Stock Option is exercised.

         12.0 INTERPRETATION; SEVERABILITY. All rights and restrictions
contained in this Agreement may be exercised and shall be applicable and binding
only to the extent that they do not violate any applicable laws and are intended
to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this
Agreement illegal, invalid or unenforceable. It is understood and agreed that
the provisions hereof are severable; if such provisions shall be deemed invalid
or unenforceable as to any period of time, territory, or business activity, such
provisions shall be deemed limited to the extent necessary to render it valid
and enforceable, and the unenforceability of any provisions hereof shall not in
any event cause any other provision hereof to be unenforceable. No provision

                                       8

<PAGE>

of this Agreement shall be construed against or interpreted to the
disadvantage of any party hereto by any court or other governmental or
judicial authority by reason of such party having or being deemed to have
structured or dictated such provision.

         13.0 RELIEF. In the event of any threatened or actual breach of the
provisions of this Agreement by either party, the other party shall be entitled
to injunctive relief in addition to any other remedies it may have at law or in
equity.

         14.0 NONWAIVER. Failure of either party to insist, in one or more
instances, on performance by the other in strict accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of
any right granted hereunder or of the future performance of any such term or
condition or of any other term or condition of this Agreement, unless such
waiver is contained in a writing signed by or on behalf of both parties.

         15.0 NOTICES. Any notice or other communication required or permitted

                              EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

           THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made and entered
into as of the 15th day of March, 2001, by and between COMPUCREDIT
CORPORATION, a Georgia corporation ("CompuCredit"), and DAVID G. HANNA, an
individual resident of the State of Georgia ("Employee").

                              W I T N E S S E T H:
                              --------------------

           WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to enter into a written
agreement for the employment of Employee by CompuCredit on the terms and
conditions hereinafter stated which shall supersede any and all written or
oral arrangements between the parties concerning the subject matter hereof,
including, without limitation, that certain Employment Agreement between
CompuCredit and Employee dated as of January 1, 1999, as amended from time to
time (the "Previous Employment Agreement");

           NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the
mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
CompuCredit and Employee agree as follows:

           1.  RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED. Upon the terms and subject to the
conditions of this Agreement, CompuCredit hereby employs Employee to perform
services (the "Services") for CompuCredit as its Chief Executive Officer and
as delegated to him from time to time by the Board of Directors of
CompuCredit consistent with those generally associated with that position.
Employee hereby agrees to devote substantially all of his business efforts
toward performing the Services, which efforts shall constitute not less than
a minimum average of forty (40) hours per week. In his performance of the
Services, Employee shall comply with applicable CompuCredit policies and
procedures. If there is any conflict between such policies and procedures and
this Agreement, this Agreement shall control.

           2.  TERM; TERMINATION.

           2.1 TERM OF EMPLOYMENT. The term of Employee's employment under
this Agreement shall commence on the date hereof and shall continue for an
initial term (the "Initial Term") of three (3) years, unless sooner
terminated in accordance with Section 2.2. Upon expiration of the Initial
Term, Employee's employment hereunder shall be continued (upon the same
terms, subject to the same conditions and at the same salary as Employee was
paid during the last year of the Initial Term or at a salary agreed to by
both CompuCredit and Employee) after such expiration indefinitely on an at
will basis, subject to termination at any time by either party on not less
than thirty (30) days prior written notice by either party, or as otherwise
provided

<PAGE>

pursuant to Section 2.2 of this Agreement. The Initial Term and any
additional period of time Employee is employed by CompuCredit thereafter
shall be collectively referred to as the "Term."

           2.2 TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.

                 (a) This Agreement shall automatically and immediately
terminate upon the death of Employee; or

                 (b) Either party may terminate this Agreement upon the
Complete Disability of Employee. "Complete Disability", as used herein, shall
mean the inability of Employee by reason of any physical or mental impairment
to perform fully and effectively, as determined in the reasonable judgment of
a competent physician selected in good faith by CompuCredit, the Services on
a full time basis for an aggregate of 90 days in any period of 180
consecutive days.

                 (c) In addition to any other rights or remedies available
to CompuCredit, CompuCredit may, in its sole discretion, terminate this
Agreement for Cause effective immediately upon delivery of written notice to
Employee. In this Agreement, "Cause" means the reasonable, good faith
determination of a majority of the Board of Directors of CompuCredit that:

                       (i) (A) Employee has committed an act
                 constituting fraud, moral turpitude, deceit or intentional
                 material misrepresentation with respect to CompuCredit or any
                 client, customer or supplier of CompuCredit; (B) Employee has
                 embezzled funds or assets from CompuCredit or any client,
                 customer or supplier of CompuCredit; or (C) Employee has
                 engaged in willful misconduct or gross negligence in the
                 performance of the Services;

                        (ii) Employee has breached or defaulted in the
                 performance of any material provision of this Agreement and has
                 not cured such breach or default to CompuCredit's reasonable
                 satisfaction within thirty (30) days after receiving notice
                 thereof (provided that any breach by Employee of any obligation
                 under Section 9 will be grounds for immediate termination for
                 "Cause" without any notice or right to cure); or

                       (iii) Employee's conduct is materially detrimental to
                 the reputation of CompuCredit which Employee has not cured (if
                 such conduct is curable in CompuCredit's reasonable opinion) to
                 CompuCredit's reasonable satisfaction within ten (10) days
                 after receiving notice thereof.

                 (d) The date on which this Agreement expires or terminates
for any reason is referred to herein as the "Termination Date."

                                       2
<PAGE>

                 (e) Employee may terminate this Agreement following a
Change of Control (as defined below), by providing CompuCredit at least
thirty (30) days prior written notice of termination. For purposes of this
Agreement, "Change of Control" shall mean the acquisition by any single
person or entity or related persons or entities of either substantially all
the assets of CompuCredit or more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding
and issued common stock of CompuCredit.

           3.  COMPENSATION.

                 (a) During the Initial Term, CompuCredit shall pay
Employee as compensation for the Services an annual salary equal to $50,000.
Such compensation shall be payable in substantially equal semi-monthly
installments or in such other installments or at such other intervals as may
be the policy of CompuCredit from time to time, and shall be subject to such
deductions and withholdings as are required by law or policies of CompuCredit
in effect from time to time. Employee's salary per annum may from time to
time be adjusted as agreed in writing by both CompuCredit and Employee.

                 (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if
this Agreement is terminated for any of the reasons set forth in Section 2
hereof, CompuCredit shall be released of its obligation to pay further
compensation or benefits to Employee as set forth in this Agreement (except
for salary already earned under Section 3(a) hereof) and Employee will not be
entitled to any severance or other benefits upon any termination of his
employment hereunder.

                 (c) If, during the Initial Term, CompuCredit defaults
hereunder by terminating this Agreement (other than pursuant to Section 2
hereof), Employee shall be entitled to compensation paid in accordance with
this Section 3 for the remainder of the Initial Term.

           4.  VACATION.  Employee shall be entitled to such number of
weeks of paid vacation in each calendar year of the Term as is provided in,
and in accordance with, CompuCredit's policies in effect from time to time
for management employees.

           5.  BENEFITS. Employee shall be entitled to participate in
executive employee benefit plans generally provided by CompuCredit to its
executives, but only if and to the extent provided from time to time in such
executive benefits plans and for so long as CompuCredit provides or offers
such benefit plans.

           6.  REIMBURSEMENT FOR EXPENSES. CompuCredit shall reimburse
Employee for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Employee in
connection with the performance of the Services hereunder for travel,
entertainment and other miscellaneous expenses to the extent such expenses
are consistent with CompuCredit's reimbursement policy as the same shall be
in effect from time to time. Reimbursement shall be made only against an
itemized list of such expenses submitted to CompuCredit by Employee within
thirty (30) days after being incurred, and, to the extent requested by
CompuCredit, receipts and invoices evidencing such expenses.

           7.  CONFIDENTIALITY.

                 (a) PROPRIETARY INFORMATION.  Employee acknowledges that
as an employee of CompuCredit, he may from time to time have access to and be
provided with trade secrets (as defined under applicable law), and other
confidential, secret and proprietary information including without
limitation, financial statements or information, technical or nontechnical
data, formulae, compilations, programs, methods, data, financial plans,
models, product plans, marketing or sales strategies, portfolio information,
or lists of actual or potential borrowers, loan program participants or other
customers not generally available to the public concerning any aspect of the
products, services or businesses of CompuCredit, its affiliates, or its and
their officers, directors, employees, advisers, agents or other personnel
(collectively, "Proprietary Information"). Employee agrees that he will not,
directly or indirectly, disclose, publish, disseminate or use any Proprietary
Information except as authorized herein. Employee may use Proprietary
Information to perform the Services but in doing so will only allow
dissemination of Proprietary Information to any individual, corporation,
partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, association, joint
stock company, government agency, trust, trustee, entity, unincorporated
organization or any other entity on a strict need-to-know basis (provided
such persons are first informed of the confidential nature of such
Proprietary Information and directed to use or disclose it only as permitted
herein). If disclosure of any Proprietary Information is required by law, a
court or agency of the government, then Employee may make such disclosure
after providing CompuCredit with reasonable notice, to the extent that
providing such notice to CompuCredit is legally permissible, so that
CompuCredit may seek protective relief.

                 (b) NON-PROPRIETARY INFORMATION.  Notwithstanding the
provisions of Section 7(a) above, the following shall not be considered to be
Proprietary Information: (i) any information that was in the public domain
through no fault or act of Employee prior to the disclosure thereof to
Employee; (ii) any information that comes into the public domain through no
fault or act of Employee; (iii) any information that is disclosed without
restriction to Employee by a third party (which term shall not include any
equity holder, affiliate, or counsel, accountants and other non-employee
representatives of affiliated entitles, or of any of their respective equity
holders, affiliates or related persons) having the legal right to make such
disclosure, and (iv) any confidential business information that is not a
trade secret on the three (3) year anniversary of the Termination Date;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the limited duration of the confidentiality
obligation with regard to Proprietary Information not constituting a trade
secret shall not operate or be construed as affording Employee any right or
license thereafter to use Proprietary Information, or as a waiver by
CompuCredit of the rights and benefits otherwise available to CompuCredit
under the laws governing the protection and enforceability of patents, trade
secret and other intellectual property.

                 (c) RETURN OF MATERIALS.  On or before the Termination
Date, or when otherwise requested by CompuCredit, Employee will deliver
promptly to CompuCredit all Proprietary Information and all other files,
customer lists, management reports, drawings,

                                       4
<PAGE>

memoranda, forms, financial data and reports and other materials or documents
and equipment provided to, or obtained or created by Employee in connection
with the Services (including all copies of the foregoing, and including all
notes, records and other materials of or relating to CompuCredit or their
respective customers) in his possession or control.

           8.  TRANSFER AND ASSIGNMENT TO COMPUCREDIT.

                 (a) TRANSFER AND ASSIGNMENT OF WORK PRODUCT.  To the
greatest extent possible, any Work Product will be "work made for hire" (as
defined in the Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C.A. Section 101 ET SEQ., as amended)
and owned exclusively by CompuCredit. In this Agreement, "Work Product" means
work product, property, data, documentation, "know-how," concepts, plans,
inventions, improvements, techniques, processes or information of any kind,
prepared, conceived, discovered, developed or created by Employee in
connection with the performance of the Services. Employee hereby
unconditionally and irrevocably transfers and assigns to CompuCredit all
right, title and interest Employee has or will have, by operation of law or
otherwise, in or to any Work Product, including, without limitation, all
patents, copyrights, trademarks, service marks, trade secrets and other
intellectual property rights. Employee agrees to execute and deliver to
CompuCredit any transfers or other instruments which CompuCredit may deem
necessary or appropriate to vest complete title and ownership of any Work
Product, and all rights therein, exclusively in CompuCredit.

                 (b) POWER OF ATTORNEY.  Employee hereby irrevocably
constitutes and appoints CompuCredit as his agent and attorney-in-fact, with
full power of substitution, in the name, place and stead of Employee, to
execute and deliver any and all assignments or other instruments described in
Section 8(a) above that Employee fails or refuses promptly to execute and
deliver. The foregoing power and agency are coupled with an interest and are
irrevocable.

           9.  COVENANT AGAINST COMPETITION.

                 (a) Employee acknowledges that the Proprietary Information
that he has acquired and will acquire, prior to and during the Term, includes
and will include information that could be used by Employee on behalf of a
Competitor (as hereinafter defined), its affiliates or others to the
substantial detriment of CompuCredit. Moreover, the parties recognize that
Employee during the course of his employment with CompuCredit will develop
important relationships with customers and others having valuable business
relationships with CompuCredit. In view of the foregoing, Employee
acknowledges and agrees that the restrictive covenants contained in this
Agreement are reasonably necessary to protect CompuCredit's legitimate
business interests and goodwill. If this Agreement is terminated by
CompuCredit otherwise than in accordance with Section 2.2 hereof, Employee
will only be bound by the covenant against competition if he is paid at his
then current salary for the one (1) year period of time from and after the
Termination Date.

                 CompuCredit, an employee of CompuCredit or an affiliate
                 who would provide similar services to a Competitor.

                 (d) Employee hereby represents and warrants to CompuCredit
that he is not now a party to any agreement, court order, decree or other
restriction which restricts him from using or disclosing to any party any

contained in this Agreement may be exercised and shall be applicable and
binding only to the extent that they do not violate any applicable laws and
are intended to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not
render this Agreement illegal, invalid or unenforceable. It is understood and
agreed that the provisions hereof are severable; if such provisions shall be
deemed invalid or unenforceable as to any period of time, territory, or
business activity, such provisions shall be deemed limited to the extent
necessary to render it valid and enforceable, and the unenforceability of any
provisions hereof shall not in any event cause any other provision hereof to
be unenforceable. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed against

governmental or judicial authority by reason of such party having or being
deemed to have structured or dictated such provision.

           11.  RELIEF. In the event of any threatened or actual breach of

           12.  NONWAIVER. Failure of either party to insist, in one or
more instances, on performance by the other in strict accordance with the
terms and conditions of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver or
relinquishment of any right granted hereunder or of the future performance of
any such term or condition or of any other term or condition of this
Agreement, unless such waiver is contained in a writing signed by or on
behalf of both parties.

           13.  NOTICES. Any notice or other communication required or
permitted hereunder shall be deemed sufficiently given if delivered by hand
