The Company or the Guarantors will pay the expenses of printing and distributing to the Purchaser all such documents.

(c) The Company will arrange for the qualification of the Offered Securities for sale and the determination of their eligibility for investment under the laws of such jurisdictions in the United States and Canada as the Purchaser designates and will continue such qualifications or determinations in effect so long as required for the resale of the Offered Securities by the Purchaser provided that the Company will not be required to qualify as a foreign corporation, to file a general consent to service of process or to subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject.

(d) During the period of two years after the Closing Date, the Company will, upon request, furnish to the Purchaser and any holder of Offered Securities a copy of the restrictions on transfer applicable to the Offered Securities.

(e) During the period of two years after the Closing Date, the Company will not, and will not permit any of its affiliates (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act and including, without limitation, the Guarantors) to, resell any of the Offered Securities that have been reacquired by any of them.

(f) During the period of two years after the Closing Date, none of the Company, any of the Guarantors or any of their subsidiaries will be or become, an open-end investment company, unit

(g) The Company and the Guarantors will pay all expenses incident to the performance of their respective obligations under this Agreement, the Indenture, the Pledge Agreements and the Registration Rights Agreement, including: (i) the fees and expenses of the Trustee and its professional advisers; (ii) all expenses in connection with the execution, issue, authentication, packaging and initial delivery of the Offered Securities and, as applicable, the Exchange Securities, the preparation and printing of this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Offered Securities, the Exchange Securities, the Indenture, the Pledge Agreements, the Offering Document and any amendments and supplements thereto, and any other document relating to the issuance, offer, sale and delivery of the Offered Securities and, as applicable, the Exchange Securities; (iii) the cost of qualifying the Offered Securities for trading in The Portal^SM Market of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. ("PORTAL") and any expenses incidental thereto, (iv) the cost of any advertising approved by the Company or any Guarantor in connection with the issue of the Offered Securities, (v) any expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred in connection with qualification of the Offered Securities or the Exchange Securities for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions in the United States and Canada as the Purchaser designates and the printing of memoranda relating thereto, (vi) any fees charged by investment rating agencies for the rating of the Offered Securities or the Exchange Securities, (vii) all expenses incurred in distributing the Offering Document (including any amendments and supplements thereto) to the Purchaser and (viii) all travel expenses of the Purchaser and the officers and employees of the Company and any of the Guarantors and any other expenses of the Purchaser, the Company or any of the Guarantors in connection with attending or hosting meetings with prospective purchasers of the Offered Securities from the Purchaser.

(h) In connection with the offering, until the Purchaser shall have notified the Company of the completion of the resale of the Offered Securities, neither the Company nor any of its affiliates (including the Guarantors) has or will, either alone or with one or more other persons, bid for or purchase for any account in which it or any of its affiliates (including the Guarantors) has a beneficial interest any Offered Securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any Offered Securities; and neither it nor any of its affiliates (including the Guarantors) will make bids or purchases for the purpose of creating actual, or apparent, active trading in, or of raising the price of, the Offered Securities.

(i) For a period of 180 days after the date hereof, the Company will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, or file with the Commission a registration under the Securities Act relating to, any U.S. dollar-denominated debt securities issued or guaranteed by the Company and having a maturity of more than one year from the date of issue, or publicly disclose its intention to make any such offer, sale, contract, pledge, disposition or filing, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser. The Company will not at any time offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any securities under circumstances where such offer, sale, contract, pledge or disposition would cause the exemption afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act or the safe harbor of Regulation S thereunder to cease to be applicable to the offer and sale of the Offered Securities.

(j) The proceeds of the offering of the Offered Securities will be applied as set forth under "Use of Proceeds" in the Offering Document.

6. Conditions of the Obligation of the Purchaser. The obligation of the Purchaser to purchase and pay for the Offered Securities will be subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties on the part of the Company and the Guarantors herein, to the accuracy of the statements of the officers of the Company and the Guarantors made pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the

performance by the Company and the Guarantors of their respective obligations hereunder and to the following additional conditions precedent:

(a) On the date hereof (prior to the execution of this Agreement) and also at the Closing Date, Ernst & Young LLP shall have furnished to the Purchaser a letter or letters, dated the respective dates of delivery thereof, in form and substance satisfactory to the Purchaser, to the effect set forth in Schedule C hereto.

(b) Subsequent to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, there shall not have occurred (i) any change, or any development or event involving a prospective change, in the condition (financial or other), business, properties or results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries (including the Subsidiary Guarantors) taken as one enterprise which, in the judgment of the Purchaser, is material and adverse and makes it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with completion of the offering or the sale of and payment for the Offered Securities; (ii) any downgrading in the rating of any debt securities of the Company or any Guarantor by any "nationally recognized statistical rating organization" (as defined for purposes of Rule 436(g)(2) under the Securities Act), or any public announcement that any such organization has under surveillance or review its rating of any debt securities of the Company or any Guarantor (other than an announcement with positive implications of a possible upgrading, and no implication of a possible downgrading, of such rating) or any announcement that the Company or any Guarantor has been placed on negative outlook; (iii) any change in U.S. or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls as would, in the judgment of the Purchaser, be likely to prejudice materially the success of the proposed issue, sale or distribution of the Offered Securities, whether in the primary market or in respect of dealings in the secondary market; (iv) any material suspension or material limitation of trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or any setting of minimum prices for trading on such exchange, or any suspension of trading of any securities of the Company or any Guarantor on any exchange or in the over-the-counter market; (v) any banking moratorium declared by U.S. Federal or New York authorities; (vi) any major disruption of settlements of securities or clearance services in the United States; or (vii) any attack on, outbreak or escalation of hostilities or act of terrorism involving the United States, any declaration of war by Congress or any other national or international calamity or emergency if, in the judgment of the Purchaser, the effect of any such attack, outbreak, escalation, act, declaration, calamity or emergency makes it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with completion of the offering or sale of and payment for the Offered Securities.

(c) The Purchaser shall have received an opinion, dated the Closing Date, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser, of Irell & Manella LLP, counsel for the Company and the Guarantors, to the effect set forth in Schedule D.

(d) The Purchaser shall have received an opinion, dated the Closing Date, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser, of Cyril Means, Vice President and General Counsel of the Company, to the effect set forth in Schedule E.

(e) The Purchaser shall have received from Sullivan & Cromwell LLP, counsel for the Purchaser, such opinion or opinions, dated the Closing Date, with respect to the incorporation of the Company, the validity of the Offered Securities, the Offering Circular, the exemption from registration for the offer and sale of the Offered Securities with the Guarantees endorsed thereon to the Purchaser and the resales by the Purchaser as contemplated hereby and other related matters as the Purchaser may require, and the Company and the Guarantors shall have furnished to such counsel such documents as they request for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon such matters.

(f) The Purchaser shall have received a certificate, dated the Closing Date, of the Chief Executive Officer or the President and the Chief Financial Officer or Treasurer of the Company and each Guarantor in their capacity as officers of the Company and the Guarantors, respectively, in which such officers, to the best of their knowledge after reasonable investigation, shall state that: the representations and warranties of the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, in this Agreement are true and correct; the Company or such Guarantor has complied with all agreements and satisfied all conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied hereunder at or prior to the Closing Date; and, subsequent to the date of the most recent financial statements in the Offering Document, there has been no Material Adverse Change, nor any development or event involving a prospective Material Adverse Change, except as set forth in the Offering Document, the Exchange Act Reports or as described in such certificate.

Each of the Company and the Guarantors will furnish the Purchaser with such conformed copies of such opinions, certificates, letters and documents as the Purchaser reasonably requests. In its sole discretion the Purchaser may waive compliance with any conditions to the obligation of the Purchaser hereunder.

7. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company and the Guarantors will indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, its partners, directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Purchaser may become subject, under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Offering Document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or the Exchange Act Reports, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, including any losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising out of or based upon the Company's failure to perform its obligations under Section 5(a) of this Agreement, and will reimburse the Purchaser for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Purchaser in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that neither the Company nor any Guarantor will be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company or any of the Guarantors by the Purchaser specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information consists of the information described as such in subsection (b) below.

(b) The Purchaser will indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each Guarantor, their respective directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company or any Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company or any Guarantor may become subject, under the

Securities Act or the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Offering Document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company or such Guarantor by the Purchaser specifically for use therein, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or such Guarantor in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Purchaser consists of the following information in the Offering Document: paragraphs three and ten and the second sentence of paragraph eleven under the caption "Plan of Distribution"; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall not be liable for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising out of or based upon the Company's failure to perform its obligations under Section 5(a) of this Agreement.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under subsection (a) or (b) above, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under subsection (a) or (b) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 7 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement includes (i) an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Purchaser on the other from the offering of the Offered Securities 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) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Purchaser on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or

liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Purchaser on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total discounts and commissions received by the Purchaser from the Company under this Agreement. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or any of the Guarantors on the one hand or the Purchaser on the other hand and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), the Purchaser shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total discounts, fees and commissions received by the Purchaser exceeds the amount of any damages which the Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

(e) The obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Section 7 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company and the Guarantors may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls the Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act; and the obligations of the Purchaser under this Section 7 shall be in addition to any liability which the Purchaser may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls the Company or any Guarantor within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

8. Survival of Certain Representations and Obligations. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the Guarantors and their respective officers and of the Purchaser set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of the Purchaser, the Company, any Guarantor or any of their respective representatives, officers or directors or any controlling person, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Offered Securities. If for any reason the purchase of the Offered Securities by the Purchaser is not consummated, the Company and the Guarantors shall remain responsible for the expenses to be paid or reimbursed by them pursuant to Section 5 and the respective obligations of the Company, the Guarantors and the Purchaser pursuant to Section 7 shall remain in effect. If the purchase of the Offered Securities by the Purchaser is not consummated for any reason other than solely because of the occurrence of any event specified in clause (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) or (vii) of Section 6(b), the Company and the Guarantors will reimburse the Purchaser for all out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred by it in connection with the offering of the Offered Securities.

9. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and, if sent to the Purchaser, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to the Purchaser at Eleven Madison Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10010-3629, Attention: Transactions Advisory Group, or, if sent to the Company or any Guarantor, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to them c/o Dollar Financial Group, Inc., 1436 Lancaster Avenue, Berwyn, Pennsylvania, 19312, Attention: General Counsel.

10. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the controlling persons referred to in Section 7, and no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder, except that holders of Offered Securities shall

be entitled to enforce the agreements for their benefit contained in the second sentence of Section 5(b) hereof against the Company as if such holders were parties thereto.

11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same Agreement.

12. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.

Each of the Company and the Guarantors hereby submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal and state courts in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

If the foregoing is in accordance with the Purchaser's understanding of our agreement, kindly sign and return to us one of the counterparts hereof, whereupon it will become a binding agreement between the Company, the Guarantors and the Purchaser in accordance with its terms.
