“Participant” shall mean any employee of the Corporation or any of its Affiliates who is selected for participation in the Plan pursuant to Section 6.

“Plan” shall mean this MoneyGram International, Inc. Management and Line of Business Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time.

Section 3. Funding Limit. A funding limit shall be established annually for each Participant who is an Executive Officer. The funding limit shall be an amount determined by multiplying the actual net income from continuing operations of a Company for the Plan Year by the percent of such actual net income approved by the Committee for such funding limit. In the case of a Company which is a corporate group, the measure of the actual net income from continuing operations shall be that of the Corporation as a whole. An Executive Officer cannot be paid a larger bonus than the funding limit provided by this Section 3, but may be paid less in the discretion of the Committee based on the performance goals set forth below and other such factors which the Committee may consider.

(a) Operating or Pre-Tax Income. An appropriate Operating Income or Pre-Tax Income target for the Plan Year for a Company may be recommended by the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation to the Committee for approval, taking into account overall corporate objectives, historical income and Plan Year financial plan income (on the same basis as determined below) and, if appropriate, other circumstances. In the case of a Company which is a corporate group, Operating Income or Pre-Tax Income shall be that of the Corporation as a whole.

“Operating or Pre-Tax Income” to be used in calculating the bonus pool of each Company shall mean operating income before minority interest, interest expense and taxes, after deduction of corporate overhead, or pre-tax income after minority interest, in each case adjusted to appropriately exclude the effects of gains and losses from the sale or other disposition of capital assets other than vehicles. Any significant unusual or non-recurring items will be excluded for purposes of determining actual or target Operating or Pre-Tax Income.

Incentives to be paid under the Plan must be deducted from the Company’s earnings by the end of the year. Goals must be achieved after deducting from actual results all incentive compensation applicable to the year, including those incentives earned under the Plan.

(b) Operating Cash Flow. An appropriate Operating Cash Flow target for the Plan Year for a Company may be recommended by the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation to the Committee for approval. This measurement is intended to place increased emphasis on delivering available cash to the Corporation.

“Operating Cash Flow” is defined as the net change in cash resulting from the operations of the Company, excluding the impact of the change in cash and cash equivalents (substantially restricted), receivables, net (substantially restricted) and payment service obligations as these items (while reported under operating cash flow in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States) relate to investing activity and are not deemed to be part of operating activity. Operating Cash Flow excludes the impact of investing activities and financing activities. In the case of a Company which is a corporate group, Operating Cash Flow shall be that of the Corporation as a whole.

(c) Earnings Per Share from Continuing Operations. An appropriate Earnings Per Share from Continuing Operations target for the Corporation may be recommended by the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation to the Committee for approval after considering historical earnings per share from continuing operations, Plan Year financial plan income, overall corporate objectives, and, if appropriate, other circumstances.

“Earnings Per Share from Continuing Operations” will be calculated on a fully diluted basis, the numerator of which is earnings from continuing operations and denominator of which is fully diluted shares, calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

An appropriate average three-year Earnings Per Share from Continuing Operations target for the Corporation will be established after considering historical income per share from continuing operations, finance plan income per share from continuing operations for the Plan Year, overall corporate objectives and, if appropriate, other circumstances. An appropriate range of values above and below such target will then be selected to measure achievement above or below the target.

Earnings Per Share from Continuing Operations is determined before unusual or extraordinary items, effects of changes in accounting principles or a change in federal income tax rates after the target has been set. Reclassification of a major business unit to discontinued operations status after targets have been set would also require adjustment because of the effect on continuing operations results. While gains on disposition of a business would normally not be included in determining actual Plan Year net income or income per share, in the event of the sale of a subsidiary or major business unit, a portion of gain would be included equal to the difference between the sold unit’s planned net income for the year and actual results to date of sale plus calculated interest savings on proceeds for the balance of the year, so that actual results are not penalized for selling a business.

Incentives to be paid under the Plan must be deducted from the Corporation’s earnings by the end of the year. Goals must be achieved after deducting from actual results all incentive compensation applicable to the year, including those incentives earned under the Plan.

(d) Other Performance Measurements. An appropriate number of performance measurements other than or in addition to Operating or Pre-Tax Income, Operating Cash Flow, and Earnings Per Share from Continuing Operations may be established for each Company to place increased emphasis on areas of importance to achieving overall corporate objectives, with the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation recommending to the Committee the measures to be used and, at the end of the year, the level of achievement against such measures; provided, however, that the performance measurements selected must be permissible performance goals under the 2004 Omnibus Plan or the 2005 Omnibus Plan, as applicable.

(e) Gross Profit. The bonus pool earned will be subject to further adjustment whereby the total bonus pool otherwise accruable will be adjusted by 105% if more than target Gross Profit is achieved. If Gross Profit is achieved between the minimum and target, the bonus pool earned will be adjusted by 1% for every increment above the minimum, up to 5% with the increment determined at the time the target and minimum are established. The Committee may, however, in its discretion, change the adjustment percentages set forth in this Section 4(e) at any time and from time to time.

(f) Establishing Targets. The targets for Gross Profit, Operating or Pre-Tax Income, Operating Cash Flow, Earning Per Share from Continuing Operations and for any other performance measurements for a Plan Year, and any special rules relating to the computation of the performance measurements, will be established by the Committee no later than 90 days after the beginning of the Plan Year after receiving the recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation.

Section 5. Participant Eligibility. The Committee will select the Executive Officers eligible for participation no later than 90 days after the beginning of the Plan Year. Other personnel will be eligible for participation as approved by the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation. The selection of Participants will be limited only to those Executive Officers and other personnel who occupy a position in which they can significantly affect operating results as pre-defined by appropriate and consistent criteria. Criteria will include, without limitation, base salary not less than $49,000 per year, base salary not less than 50% of the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer, or another applicable criteria.

Individuals not qualifying under the criteria established for the Plan Year who were included in the previous year will be grandfathered (continue as qualified Participants until retirement, reassignment, or termination of employment) if designated and approved by the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation.

Section 6. Target Bonuses. Target bonuses will be approved by the Committee for each Executive Officer in writing within the following parameters no later than 90 days after the beginning of the Plan Year and will be expressed as a percentage of salary paid during the year.

Target bonuses for other eligible personnel will be established in writing within the following parameters subject to approval by the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation.

Actual bonus awards will be dependent on Company performance in comparison to the established targets. A threshold performance will be required before any bonus award is earned under the Operating or Pre-Tax Income goal. Bonus awards will also be capped when stretch performance levels are achieved.

(a) Non-Compete. Unless a Change of Control shall have occurred after the date hereof:

(1) In order to better protect the goodwill of the Corporation and its Affiliates and to prevent the disclosure of the Corporation’s or its Affiliates’ trade secrets and confidential information and thereby help ensure the long-term success of their respective businesses, each Participant in the Plan, without prior written consent of the Corporation, will not engage in any activity or provide any services, whether as a director, manager, supervisor, employee, adviser, agent, consultant, owner of more than five percent of any enterprise or otherwise, for a period of two years following the date of such Participant’s termination of employment with the Corporation or any of its Affiliates, in connection with the manufacture, development, advertising, promotion, design, or sale of any service or product which is the same as or similar to or competitive with any services or products of the Corporation or its Affiliates (including both existing services or products as well as services or products known to such Participant, as a consequence of such Participant’s employment with the Corporation or one of its Affiliates, to be in development):

(A) with respect to which such Participant’s work has been directly concerned at any time during the two years preceding termination of employment with the Corporation or one of its Affiliates, or

(B) with respect to which during that period of time such Participant, as a consequence of Participant’s job performance and duties, acquired knowledge of trade secrets or other confidential information of the Corporation or its Affiliates.

(2) For purposes of the provisions of Section 8(a), it shall be conclusively presumed that a Participant in the Plan has knowledge of information he or she was directly exposed to through actual receipt or review of memos or documents containing such information, or through actual attendance at meetings at which such information was discussed or disclosed.

(3) If, at any time within two years following the date of a Participant’s termination of employment with the Corporation or any of its Affiliates, such Participant engages in any conduct agreed to be avoided in accordance with Section 8(a), then all bonuses paid under the Plan to such Participant during the last 12 months of employment shall be returned or otherwise repaid by such Participant to the Corporation. Participants in the Plan consent to the deduction from any amounts the Corporation or any of its Affiliates owes to such Participants to the extent of the amounts such Participants owe the Corporation hereunder.

(b) Misconduct. Unless a Change of Control shall have occurred after the date hereof, all bonuses paid for the 2003 Plan Year and thereafter under the Plan to any Participant shall be returned or otherwise repaid by such Participant to the Corporation if the Corporation reasonably determines that during a Participant’s employment with the Corporation or any of its Affiliates:

(A) such Participant knowingly participated in misconduct that causes a misstatement of the financial statements of the Corporation or any of its Affiliates or misconduct which represents a material violation of any code of ethics of the Corporation applicable to such Participant or of the compliance program or similar program of the Corporation; or

(B) such Participant was aware of and failed to report, as required by any code of ethics of the Corporation applicable to such Participant or by the Always Honest compliance program or similar program of the Corporation, misconduct that causes a misstatement of the financial statements of the Corporation or any of its Affiliates or misconduct which represents a material knowing violation of any code of ethics of the Corporation applicable to such Participant or of the Always Honest compliance program or similar program of the Corporation.

Participants in the Plan consent to the deduction from any amounts the Corporation or any of its Affiliates owes to such Participants to the extent of the amounts such Participants owe the Corporation hereunder.

(c) Acts Contrary to the Corporation. Unless a Change of Control shall have occurred after the date hereof, if the Corporation reasonably determines that at any time within two years after the award of any bonus under the Plan to a Participant that such Participant has acted significantly contrary to the best interests of the Corporation, including, but not limited to, any direct or indirect intentional disparagement of the Corporation, then any bonus paid under the Plan to such Participant during the prior two-year period shall be returned or otherwise repaid by the Participant to the Corporation. Participants in the Plan consent to the deduction from any amounts the Corporation or any of its Affiliates owes to such Participants to the extent of the amounts such Participants owe the Corporation hereunder.

(d) Reasonable Determination. The Corporation’s reasonable determination required under Sections 8(b) and (c) shall be made by the Committee, in the case of Executive Officers of the Corporation, and by the President and Chief Executive Officer and Corporate Compliance Officer of the Corporation, in the case of all other personnel.

Section 9. Special Achievement Awards.

Section 12. Special Compensation Status. All bonuses paid under the Plan shall be deemed to be special compensation and, therefore, unless otherwise provided for in another plan or agreement, will not be included in determining the earnings of the recipients for the purposes of any pension, group insurance or other plan or agreement of the Corporation. Participants in the Plan shall not be eligible for any contractual or other short-term (sales, productivity, etc.) incentive plan except in those cases where participation is weighted between the Plan and any such other short-term incentive plan.

Section 13. Deferrals. Currently, all programs for deferred compensation for employees are frozen. The Board may, in its sole discretion, elect to reinstate a deferred compensation plan or plans at some point in the future.

Section 14. Plan Termination. The Plan shall continue in effect until such time as it may be canceled or otherwise terminated by action of the Board and will not become effective with respect to any Company unless and until the Board or the Committee adopts a specific plan for such Company. The Board may terminate, amend, alter, or modify the Plan at any time and from time to time. Participation in the Plan for any Plan Year shall not create any right to participate in the Plan for any subsequent Plan Year.

Section 15. Employee Rights. No Participant in the Plan shall be deemed to have a right to any part or share of the Plan, except as provided in Section 16.
