“Amendment”) is made as of December 4, 2009, by and among BIOMED REALTY, L.P.
(“Borrower”), KEYBANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as “Administrative Agent,” and those new
“Lenders” shown on the signature pages hereof.

R E C I T A L S

A. Borrower, Administrative Agent, the Lenders executing this Amendment and certain other
Lenders have entered into a Second Amended and Restated Unsecured Credit Agreement dated as of
August 1, 2007 as amended by that certain First Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Unsecured
Credit Agreement dated as of November 23, 2009 (as it may be further amended, the “Credit
Agreement”). All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the
meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement.

B. Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have agreed to provide Borrower
with a revolving credit facility with an initial Aggregate Commitment of $665,000,000. The
Borrower and the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders now desire to amend the Credit
Agreement in order to, among other things (i) pursuant to Section 2.8 of the Credit Agreement
increase the Aggregate Commitment to $720,000,000; and (ii) admit certain additional Lenders under
the Credit Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing Recitals and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto
agree as follows:

AGREEMENTS

1. The foregoing Recitals to this Amendment hereby are incorporated into and made part of this
Amendment.

2. From and after December 4, 2009 (the “Effective Date”), each of Morgan Stanley
Bank, N.A. and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas shall be considered as a “Subsequent Lender”
and a “Lender” under the Credit Agreement and hereby agrees to all terms and conditions set forth
in the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents and agrees that by executing this Amendment, it
shall be considered a party to the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents having a Commitment in
the amount shown next to its signature on the signature page of this Amendment. The Borrower
shall, on or before the Effective Date, execute and deliver to the Subsequent Lender a Line Note to
evidence the Advances to be made by such Lender.

3. From and after the Effective Date, the term “Aggregate Commitment” shall mean,
subject to Section 2.7 and Section 2.8 of the Credit Agreement, Seven Hundred Twenty Million
Dollars ($720,000,000). The respective Commitments and Percentages of the Lenders with respect to
the Aggregate Commitment are set forth on Schedule 1.1 attached hereto and made a part
hereof.

 

 

 

4. From and after the Effective Date, the term “Aggregate Line Commitment” shall mean
an Aggregate Commitment of $720,000,000 plus any increase in the Aggregate Commitment under
Section 2.8 of the Credit Agreement, which is not a Term Commitment.

5. For purposes of Section 11.6 of the Credit Agreement (Notices), the address(es) and
facsimile number(s) for such new Lenders shall be as specified below their respective signature(s)
on the signature pages of this Amendment.

6. The Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Lenders that, as of the Effective Date:

(a) no Default or Event of Default under the Credit Agreement or any of the Loan
Documents has occurred and is continuing;

(b) except (i) for representations and warranties which expressly speak as of a
particular date or are no longer true and correct as a result of a change which is permitted
by this Agreement or (ii) as disclosed by Borrower and approved in writing by the Requisite
Lenders, the representations and warranties contained in Article 4 of the Credit Agreement
are true and correct in all material respects as of the Effective Date as though made on the
Effective Date; and

(c) the Borrower has no offsets or claims against any of the Lenders.

7. As expressly modified as provided herein, the Credit Agreement shall continue in full force
and effect.

8. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together
shall constitute one agreement, and any of the parties hereto may execute this Amendment by signing
any such counterpart.

9. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State
of New York.

Gentlemen:

The purpose of this letter is to set forth the agreement and understanding as of October 1, 2010,
between EZCORP, Inc. (“EZCORP”) and Madison Park, LLC (“Madison Park”) regarding advisory services
to be rendered by Madison Park to EZCORP (the “Agreement”).

	 	1.	 	EZCORP hereby engages Madison Park to provide advisory services related to EZCORP’s
business and long term strategic plan, as modified by EZCORP from time to time, including
but not limited to advising on the following:

	 	(a)	 	Identifying, evaluating and negotiating potential acquisitions and
strategic alliances;
	 
	 	(b)	 	Assessing operating and strategic objectives, including new business development;
	 
	 	(c)	 	Advising on investor relations and relations with investment bankers,
securities analysts and other members of the financial services industry;
	 
	 	(d)	 	Assisting in international business development and strategic
investment opportunities that complement EZCORP’s business lines and strategic
objectives;
	 
	 	(e)	 	Analyzing financial condition and results of operations, evaluating
strengths and weaknesses of financial performance and recommending measures to
improve performance;
	 
	 	(f)	 	Advising on dividend policy and corporate transactions such as
stock repurchases, splits, recapitalizations and restructurings;
	 
	 	(g)	 	Providing briefings on business strategy to the Board of Directors from
time to time as appropriate; and,
	 
	 	(h)	 	Performing such other services as agreed between EZCORP and Madison Park.

 

 

	 	2.	 	Madison Park hereby accepts the engagement described in paragraph 1 above. As
compensation for its services, EZCORP agrees to pay Madison Park an annual retainer fee of
$4,800,000, payable in $400,000 monthly installments (the “Retainer”).
	 
	 	3.	 	The term of Madison Park’s engagement shall extend from October 1, 2010, through September
30, 2011. The Agreement shall terminate on September 30, 2011, unless terminated earlier as
provided for herein. Paragraphs 6 and 8 herein shall survive any termination or expiration of
the Agreement.
	 
	 	4.	 	EZCORP shall reimburse Madison Park for its out-of-pocket travel and entertainment expenses
incurred in order to render the services contemplated to be provided by Madison Park pursuant
to this Agreement. Any other expenses must be agreed to by EZCORP in advance. The expenses
shall be documented in a similar manner applicable to EZCORP’s executive officers and paid by
EZCORP within 30 days after receipt by EZCORP of a detailed invoice including supporting
documentation.
	 
	 	5.	 	Either party may terminate this Agreement with or without cause upon 30 days written notice
to the other party.
	 
	 	6.	 	Indemnification.

	 	(a)	 	EZCORP agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Madison Park, its affiliates, the
respective officers, directors, employees, consultants, associates and agents of
Madison Park and its affiliates, and any person controlling Madison Park or any of its
affiliates within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 or
Section 9 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (each an “indemnified person”) in
connection with this engagement from and against all claims, costs, expenses,
liabilities, losses and damages (or actions in respect thereof) related to or arising
out of this engagement or Madison Park’s connection therewith; provided, however, that
EZCORP shall not be responsible for any claims, costs, expenses, liabilities, losses or
damages of an indemnified person to the extent that it is finally determined by a court
or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction that they resulted primarily from actions
taken or omitted to be taken by such indemnified person due to such indemnified
person’s recklessness, willful misconduct or bad faith or that they arose primarily out
of or were based primarily upon any untrue statement or omission made (i) in any
document or writing in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to
EZCORP by such indemnified person for use in such document or writing or (ii) in any
document in connection with the engagement without the prior approval of EZCORP.

Page 2

 

	 	(b)	 	If any action or proceeding, including, but not limited to, any governmental
investigation, shall be brought or asserted against an indemnified person in respect of which
indemnity may be sought from EZCORP, such indemnified person shall promptly notify EZCORP in
writing of an indemnified person’s knowledge of such claim, action or proceedings, and EZCORP
shall assume the defense thereof, including, but not limited to, the employment of counsel
reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified person and the payment of all fees and
disbursements of such counsel and all other expenses related to such actions or proceedings.
Such indemnified person shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action or
proceeding and to participate in defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such separate
counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified person unless (i) EZCORP has agreed to
pay such fees and expenses or (ii) EZCORP shall have failed to timely assume the defense of
such actions or proceedings, to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified
person in any such action or proceeding and if requested by such indemnified person, to
confirm in writing that it is obligated to indemnify such indemnified person against all
claims, costs, expenses, liabilities, losses and damages related to or arising out of such
action or proceeding in accordance with this agreement or (iii) counsel shall determine that
there is or could reasonably be expected to be a conflict of interest by reason of having
common counsel in any action or proceeding, in which case, if such indemnified person
notifies EZCORP in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of
EZCORP, EZCORP shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action or proceeding,
on behalf of any such indemnified person, it being understood, however, that EZCORP shall
not, in connection with any one such action or proceeding or separate but substantially
similar or related actions or proceedings in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same
general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more
than one separate firm of attorneys (together with appropriate local counsel) at any time for
such indemnified person, which firm shall be designated in writing by such indemnified
person. EZCORP shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action or proceeding
effected without EZCORP’s written consent, which should not be unreasonably withheld. If
settled with EZCORP’s prior written consent or if there be a final and nonappealable judgment
for the plaintiff in any such action or proceeding, EZCORP agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless such indemnified person from and against any loss or liability to the extent stated
above by reason of such settlement or judgment.

Page 3

 

	 	(c)	 	If for any reason the indemnification provided herein is unavailable to an
indemnified person under paragraph 6(b) above in respect of any claims, costs,
expenses, liabilities, losses or damages referred to therein or if such
indemnification shall be insufficient to hold such indemnified person harmless from
all such claims, costs, expenses, liabilities, losses or damages, then EZCORP, in
lieu of indemnifying such indemnified person shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such indemnified person as a result of such claims, costs, expenses,
liabilities, losses, or damages, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
the relative benefits received by EZCORP on the one hand and such indemnified person
on the other hand or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not
permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only
the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of
EZCORP, on the one hand, and such indemnified person, on the other, as well as any
other relevant equitable consideration. The amount paid or payable by a party as a
result of the claims, costs, expenses, liabilities, losses or damages, referred to
above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in paragraph
6(b) any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in
connection with investigating or defending any action or claim. Notwithstanding the
provisions herein, Madison Park shall not be required to contribute any amount in
excess of the amount of fees received by Madison Park under this Agreement.

	 	7.	 	The terms of this Agreement and the advice provided under this Agreement shall not be
disclosed by either party without the express written consent of the other party, except (i)
any EZCORP regulatory filing, (ii) a court proceeding, or (iii) as required by law.
	 
	 	8.	 	Madison Park hereby acknowledges that EZCORP is a publicly traded company and the Information
EZCORP discloses to Madison Park and its representatives during the course of this engagement
may include material non-public information. Accordingly, Madison Park agrees (for itself and
on behalf of its representatives) that (a) it will not disclose any such material non-public
information to anyone without EZCORP’s consent except where Madison Park is required by law or
regulations to make such disclosure and (b) it will not use any of such information for any
purpose (including engaging in transactions involving the publicly traded securities of
EZCORP) other than in connection with the performance of services pursuant to this engagement.
	 
	 	9.	 	This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Florida.
	 
	 	10.	 	The obligations under this Agreement may be assigned by Madison Park on written notice to
EZCORP. Such written notice must be delivered to EZCORP at least 30 calendar days prior to the
effective date of any such assignment.

Page 4

 

	 	11.	 	This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to
all matters contemplated hereby and supersedes all previous agreements and understandings
among them concerning such matters. No statements or agreements, oral or written, made
prior to or at the signing hereof, shall vary, waive or modify the written terms hereof.

If the foregoing correctly sets forth the understanding and agreement between Madison Park and
EZCORP, please so indicate in the space provided below for this purpose, whereupon this letter
shall constitute a binding agreement.
