$25,000,000 7.26% Senior Notes due January 28, 2017

January 28, 2010

To each of the Purchasers
listed in Schedule A hereto:

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Cash America International, Inc., a Texas corporation (the “Company”), agrees with each of the purchasers whose names appear at the end hereof (each, a “Purchaser” and, collectively, the “Purchasers”) as follows:

1. AUTHORIZATION OF NOTES.

The Company will authorize the issue and sale of $25,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 7.26% Senior Notes due January 28, 2017 (the “Notes”, such term to include any such notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to Section 13). The Notes shall be substantially in the form set out in Exhibit 1. Certain capitalized and other terms used in this Agreement are defined in Schedule B; and references to a “Schedule” or an “Exhibit” are, unless otherwise specified, to a Schedule or an Exhibit attached to this Agreement.

2. SALE AND PURCHASE OF NOTES.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company will issue and sell to each Purchaser and each Purchaser will purchase from the Company, at the Closing provided for in Section 3, Notes in the principal amount specified opposite such Purchaser’s name in Schedule A at the purchase price of 100% of the principal amount thereof. The Purchasers’ obligations hereunder are several and not joint obligations and no Purchaser shall have any liability to any Person for the performance or non-performance of any obligation by any other Purchaser hereunder.

3. CLOSING.

The sale and purchase of the Notes to be purchased by each Purchaser shall occur at the offices of Bingham McCutchen LLP, at 399 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10022, at 10:00 a.m., New York time, at a closing (the “Closing”) on January 28, 2010. At the Closing the Company will deliver to each Purchaser the Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser in the form of a single Note (or such greater number of Notes in denominations of at least $500,000 as such Purchaser may request) dated the date of the Closing and registered in such Purchaser’s name (or in the name of its nominee), against delivery by such Purchaser to the Company or its order of immediately available funds in the amount of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer of immediately available funds for the account of the Company to account number 4761053503 at

Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, Fort Worth, Texas, ABA number 121000248. If at the Closing the Company shall fail to tender such Notes to any Purchaser as provided above in this Section 3, or any of the conditions specified in Section 4 shall not have been fulfilled to such Purchaser’s satisfaction, such Purchaser shall, at its election, be relieved of all further obligations under this Agreement, without thereby waiving any rights such Purchaser may have by reason of such failure or such nonfulfillment.

4. CONDITIONS TO CLOSING.

Each Purchaser’s obligation to purchase and pay for the Notes to be sold to such Purchaser at the Closing is subject to the fulfillment to such Purchaser’s satisfaction, prior to or at the Closing, of the following conditions:

The representations and warranties of the Loan Parties in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be correct when made and at the time of the Closing.

4.2. Performance; No Default.

The Loan Parties shall have performed and complied with all agreements and conditions contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents required to be performed or complied with by them prior to or at the Closing and after giving effect to the issue and sale of the Notes (and the application of the proceeds thereof as contemplated by Section 5.14) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall have entered into any transaction since the date of the Memorandum that would have been prohibited by Sections 10.1, 10.3, 10.4, 10.5 or 10.8 had such Sections applied since such date.

4.3. Compliance Certificates.

(a) Officer’s Certificate. The Company shall have delivered to such Purchaser an Officer’s Certificate, dated the date of the Closing and satisfactory in form and substance to the Purchasers, certifying that the conditions specified in Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.9 have been fulfilled.

(b) Secretary’s Certificate. The Company and each Significant Subsidiary shall have delivered to such Purchaser a certificate of its Secretary or Assistant Secretary, dated the date of Closing and satisfactory in form and substance to the Purchasers, certifying as to the resolutions attached thereto and other corporate proceedings relating to the authorization, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents.

4.4. Opinions of Counsel.

Such Purchaser shall have received opinions in form and substance satisfactory to such Purchaser, dated the date of the Closing (a) from Hunton & Williams LLP, special counsel for the Loan Parties, substantially in the form of Exhibit 4.4(a) (and the Company hereby instructs its counsel to deliver such opinion to the Purchasers), (b) from J. Curtis Linscott, General

Counsel to the Loan Parties, substantially in the form of Exhibit 4.4(b) (and the Company hereby instructs its counsel to deliver such opinion to the Purchasers) and (c) from Bingham McCutchen LLP, the Purchasers’ special counsel in connection with such transactions, substantially in the form of Exhibit 4.4(c).

4.5. Purchase Permitted By Applicable Law, etc.

On the date of the Closing such Purchaser’s purchase of Notes shall (a) be permitted by the laws and regulations of each jurisdiction to which such Purchaser is subject, without recourse to provisions (such as section 1405(a)(8) of the New York Insurance Law) permitting limited investments by insurance companies without restriction as to the character of the particular investment, (b) not violate any applicable law or regulation (including, without limitation, Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) and (c) not subject such Purchaser to any tax, penalty or liability under or pursuant to any applicable law or regulation, which law or regulation was not in effect on the date hereof. If requested by such Purchaser, such Purchaser shall have received an Officer’s Certificate certifying as to such matters of fact as such Purchaser may reasonably specify to enable such Purchaser to determine whether such purchase is so permitted.

4.6. Sale of Other Notes.

Contemporaneously with the Closing the Company shall sell to each other Purchaser and each other Purchaser shall purchase the Notes to be purchased by it at the Closing as specified in Schedule A.

4.7. Payment of Special Counsel Fees.

Without limiting the provisions of Section 15.1, the Company shall have paid on or before the Closing the fees, charges and disbursements of the Purchasers’ special counsel referred to in Section 4.4 to the extent reflected in a statement of such counsel rendered to the Company at least one Business Day prior to the Closing.

4.8. Private Placement Number.

A Private Placement Number issued by Standard & Poor’s CUSIP Service Bureau (in cooperation with the SVO) shall have been obtained for the Notes.

4.9. Changes in Corporate Structure.

4.10. Funding Instructions.

At least three Business Days prior to the date of the Closing, each Purchaser shall have received written instructions signed by a Responsible Officer on letterhead of the Company

confirming the information specified in Section 3 including (i) the name and address of the transferee bank, (ii) such transferee bank’s ABA number and (iii) the account name and number into which the purchase price for the Notes is to be deposited.

Each other Loan Document shall (a) have been duly authorized, executed, acknowledged (if appropriate) and delivered by the respective Loan Parties thereto, (b) be dated the date of the Closing, (c) be in form and substance satisfactory to the Purchasers and (d) be in full force and effect on the date of the Closing without any default existing thereunder. A counterpart of each Loan Document executed by the Loan Parties thereto shall have been delivered to the Purchasers or its special counsel. Each Loan Document shall constitute the valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party thereto, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with the terms thereof.

4.12. Proceedings and Documents.

All corporate and other proceedings in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all documents and instruments incident to such transactions shall be satisfactory to such Purchaser and its special counsel, and such Purchaser and its special counsel shall have received all such counterpart originals or certified or other copies of such documents as such Purchaser or such special counsel may reasonably request.

5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY.

The Company represents and warrants to each Purchaser that:

5.1. Organization; Power and Authority.

The Company and each Subsidiary is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company (as the case may be) duly organized or formed (as the case may be), validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or formation (as the case may be), and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation, partnership or limited liability company (as the case may be) and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company and each Subsidiary has the corporate, partnership or limited liability company power (as the case may be) and authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease, to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact, to execute and deliver the Loan Documents to which it is a party and to perform the provisions thereof.

5.2. Authorization, etc.

The Loan Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Loan Parties, and this Agreement constitutes, and upon execution and delivery thereof each Note and each other Loan Document will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party a party thereto enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

5.3. Disclosure.

The Company, through its agent, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., a Division of McDonald Investments Inc., has delivered to each Purchaser a copy of the Offering Memorandum, dated December 2009 (the “Memorandum”), relating to the transactions contemplated hereby. The Memorandum fairly describes, in all material respects, the general nature of the business and principal properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Memorandum and the documents, certificates or other writings delivered to the Purchasers by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and identified in Schedule 5.3, and the financial statements listed in Schedule 5.5 (this Agreement, the Memorandum and such documents, certificates or other writings and such financial statements delivered to each Purchaser prior to December 18, 2009 being referred to, collectively, as the “Disclosure Documents”), taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made. Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Documents, since December 31, 2008, there has been no change in the financial condition, operations, business, properties or prospects of the Company or any Subsidiary except changes that individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no fact known to the Company that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been set forth herein or in the Disclosure Documents.

5.4. Organization and Ownership of Shares of Subsidiaries; Affiliates.

(a) Schedule 5.4 contains (except as noted therein) complete and correct lists (i) of the Company’s Subsidiaries, showing, as to each Subsidiary, the correct name thereof, the jurisdiction of its organization, and the percentage of shares of each class of its capital stock or similar equity interests outstanding owned by the Company and each other Subsidiary, (ii) of the Company’s Affiliates, other than Subsidiaries, and (iii) of the Company’s directors and senior officers.

(b) All of the outstanding shares of capital stock or similar equity interests of each Subsidiary shown in Schedule 5.4 as being owned by the Company and its Subsidiaries have been validly issued, are fully paid and nonassessable and are owned by the Company or another Subsidiary free and clear of any Lien (except as otherwise disclosed in Schedule 5.4).

(c) Each Subsidiary identified in Schedule 5.4 is a corporation or other legal entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other legal entity and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required by law, other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each such Subsidiary has the corporate or other power and authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease and to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact.

(d) Other than Creazione Estilo, S.A. de C.V., SOFOM, E.N.R., which is prohibited from paying dividends until January 1, 2011 pursuant to that certain Shareholders Agreement dated December 16, 2008 among Cash America of Mexico, Inc. and the other shareholders of Creazione Estilo, S.A. de C.V., SOFOM, E.N.R. (the “Creazione Shareholders Agreement”), no Subsidiary is a party to, or otherwise subject to any legal, regulatory, contractual or other restriction (other than this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the agreements listed on Schedule 5.4 and customary limitations imposed by corporate law or similar statutes) restricting the ability of such Subsidiary to pay dividends out of profits or make any other similar distributions of profits to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that owns outstanding shares of capital stock or similar equity interests of such Subsidiary.

5.5. Financial Statements; Material Liabilities.

The Company has delivered to each Purchaser copies of the financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 5.5. All of said financial statements (including in each case the related schedules and notes) fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the respective dates specified in such Schedule and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the respective periods so specified and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved except as set forth in the notes thereto (subject, in the case of any interim financial statements, to normal year-end adjustments). The Company and its Subsidiaries do not have any Material liabilities that are not disclosed on such financial statements or otherwise disclosed in the Disclosure Documents.

5.6. Compliance with Laws, Other Instruments, etc.

The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement and the Notes, and by each Loan Party of the Loan Documents to which such Loan Party is a party, will not (i) contravene, result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any Lien in respect of any property of the Company or any Subsidiary under, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan, purchase or credit agreement, lease, corporate charter or by-laws, or any other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Subsidiary is bound or by which the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties may be bound or affected, (ii) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any order, judgment, decree, or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority

applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary or (iii) violate any provision of any statute or other rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary.

5.7. Governmental Authorizations, etc.

No consent, approval or authorization of, or registration, filing or declaration with, any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by any of the Loan Parties of any of the Loan Documents.

5.8. Litigation; Observance of Agreements, Statutes and Orders.

(a) There are no actions, suits, investigations or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company or any Subsidiary or any property of the Company or any Subsidiary in any court or before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any Governmental Authority that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default under any term of any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound, or any order, judgment, decree or ruling of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority or is in violation of any applicable law, ordinance, rule or regulation (including without limitation Environmental Laws or the USA Patriot Act) of any Governmental Authority, which default or violation, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.9. Taxes.

The Company and its Subsidiaries have filed all tax returns that are required to have been filed in any jurisdiction, and have paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes and assessments levied upon them or their properties, assets, income or franchises, to the extent such taxes and assessments have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent, except for any taxes and assessments (i) the amount of which is not individually or in the aggregate Material or (ii) the amount, applicability or validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, has established adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP. The Company knows of no basis for any other tax or assessment that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of Federal, state or other taxes for all fiscal periods are adequate. The Federal income tax liabilities of the Company and its Subsidiaries have been finally determined (whether by reason of completed audits or the statute of limitations having run) for all fiscal years up to and including the fiscal year ended 2004.

5.10. Title to Property; Leases.

The Company and its Subsidiaries have good and sufficient title to their respective properties that individually or in the aggregate are Material, including all such properties reflected in the most recent audited balance sheet referred to in Section 5.5 or purported to have been acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary after said date (except as sold or otherwise

disposed of in the ordinary course of business), in each case free and clear of Liens prohibited by this Agreement. All leases that individually or in the aggregate are Material are valid and subsisting and are in full force and effect in all material respects.

5.11. Licenses, Permits, etc.

(a) The Company and its Subsidiaries own or possess all licenses, permits, franchises, authorizations, patents, copyrights, proprietary software, service marks, trademarks and trade names, or rights thereto, that individually or in the aggregate are Material, without known conflict with the rights of others.

(b) To the best knowledge of the Company, no product of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries infringes in any material respect on any license, permit, franchise, authorization, patent, copyright, proprietary software, service mark, trademark, trade name or other right owned by any other Person.

(c) To the best knowledge of the Company, there is no Material violation by any Person of any right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to any patent, copyright, proprietary software, service mark, trademark, trade name or other right owned or used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

5.12. Compliance with ERISA.

(a) The Company and each ERISA Affiliate have operated and administered each Plan in compliance with all applicable laws except for such instances of noncompliance as have not resulted in and could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA or the penalty or excise tax provisions of the Code relating to employee benefit plans (as defined in section 3 of ERISA), and no event, transaction or condition has occurred or exists that could reasonably be expected to result in the incurrence of any such liability by the Company or any ERISA Affiliate, or in the imposition of any Lien on any of the rights, properties or assets of the Company or any ERISA Affiliate, in either case pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA or to such penalty or excise tax provisions or to section 401(a)(29) or 412 of the Code or section 4068 of ERISA, other than such liabilities or Liens as would not be individually or in the aggregate Material.

(b) The present value of the aggregate benefit liabilities under each of the Plans (other than Multiemployer Plans), determined as of the end of such Plan’s most recently ended plan year on the basis of the actuarial assumptions specified for funding purposes in such Plan’s most recent actuarial valuation report, did not exceed the aggregate current value of the assets of such Plan. The term “benefit liabilities” has the meaning specified in section 4001 of ERISA and the terms “current value” and “present value” have the meaning specified in section 3 of ERISA.

(c) The Company and its ERISA Affiliates have not incurred withdrawal liabilities (and are not subject to contingent withdrawal liabilities) under section 4201 or

4204 of ERISA in respect of Multiemployer Plans that individually or in the aggregate are Material.

(d) The expected postretirement benefit obligation (determined as of the last day of the Company’s most recently ended fiscal year in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 106, without regard to liabilities attributable to continuation coverage mandated by section 4980B of the Code) of the Company and its Subsidiaries is not Material.

(e) The execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the issuance and sale of the Notes under this Agreement will not involve any transaction that is subject to the prohibitions of section 406 of ERISA or in connection with which a tax could be imposed pursuant to section 4975(c)(1)(A)-(D) of the Code. The representation by the Company to each Purchaser in the first sentence of this Section 5.12(e) is made in reliance upon and subject to the accuracy of such Purchaser’s representation in Section 6.2 as to the sources of the funds used to pay the purchase price of the Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser.

5.13. Private Offering by the Company.

Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered the Notes or any similar securities for sale to, or solicited any offer to buy any of the same from, or otherwise approached or negotiated in respect thereof with, any person other than the Purchasers and not more than 15 other Institutional Investors (as defined in clause (c) to the definition of such term), each of which has been offered the Notes at a private sale for investment. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has taken, or will take, any action that would subject the issuance or sale of the Notes to the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act or to the registration requirements of any securities or blue sky laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

5.14. Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations.

The Company will apply the proceeds of the sale of the Notes solely to pay the costs and expenses described in Section 15.1, to repay Indebtedness of the Company pursuant to the Existing Bank Loan Agreement and for general corporate purposes. No part of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes hereunder will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of buying or carrying any margin stock within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (12 CFR 221), or for the purpose of buying or carrying or trading in any securities under such circumstances as to involve the Company in a violation of Regulation X of said Board (12 CFR 224) or to involve any broker or dealer in a violation of Regulation T of said Board (12 CFR 220). Margin stock does not constitute more than 5% of the value of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the Company does not have any present intention that margin stock will constitute more than 5% of the value of such assets. As used in this Section, the terms “margin stock” and “purpose of buying or carrying” shall have the meanings assigned to them in said Regulation U.

8. PAYMENT AND PREPAYMENT OF THE NOTES.

8.1. Required Prepayments.

On January 28, 2013 and on each January 28 thereafter to and including January 28, 2016 the Company will prepay $5,000,000 principal amount (or such lesser principal amount as shall then be outstanding) of the Notes, at par and without payment of the Make-Whole Amount or any premium, provided that upon any partial prepayment of the Notes pursuant to Sections 8.2, 8.7 or 8.8, the principal amount of each required prepayment of the Notes becoming due under this Section 8.1 on and after the date of such prepayment shall be reduced in the same proportion as the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes is reduced as a result of such prepayment. The entire unpaid principal balance of the Note will be due and payable on January 28, 2017.

8.2. Optional Prepayments with Make-Whole Amount.

The Company may, at its option, upon notice as provided below, prepay at any time all, or from time to time any part of, the Notes, in an amount not less than $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess of $1,000,000 in the case of a partial prepayment, at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, and the Make-Whole Amount determined for the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount. The Company will give each holder of Notes written notice of each optional prepayment under this Section 8.2 not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify such date (which shall be a Business Day), the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid on such date, the principal amount of each Note held by such holder to be prepaid (determined in accordance with Section 8.3), and the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid, and shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such

prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of such computation. One Business Day prior to such prepayment, the Company shall deliver to each holder of Notes a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified prepayment date or, if no Make-Whole Amount is due, specifying the reason that no Make-Whole Amount is due in connection with such prepayment.

8.3. Allocation of Partial Prepayments.

Except as contemplated by Sections 8.7 and 8.8, in the case of each partial prepayment of the Notes, the principal amount of the Notes to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of the Notes at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof not theretofore called for prepayment.

8.4. Maturity; Surrender, etc.

In the case of each prepayment of Notes pursuant to this Section 8, the principal amount of each Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such prepayment (which shall be a Business Day), together with interest on such principal amount accrued to such date and the applicable Make-Whole Amount, if any. From and after such date, unless the Company shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable, together with the interest and Make-Whole Amount, if any, as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall cease to accrue. Any Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any Note.

8.5. Purchase of Notes.

The Company will not and will not permit any Affiliate to purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the outstanding Notes except upon the payment or prepayment of the Notes in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes. The Company will promptly cancel all Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment or prepayment of Notes pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and no Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such Notes.

8.6. Make-Whole Amount.

“Make-Whole Amount” means, with respect to any Note, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Discounted Value of the Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to the Called Principal of such Note over the amount of such Called Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Amount may in no event be less than zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Amount, the following terms have the following meanings:

“Called Principal” means, with respect to any Note, the principal of such Note that is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.8 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

“Discounted Value” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor (applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Notes is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called Principal.

“Reinvestment Yield” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, 0.50% over the yield to maturity implied by (i) the yields reported as of 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on the display designated as “Page PX1” (or such other display as may replace Page PX1) on Bloomberg Financial Markets for the most recently issued actively traded on the run U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date, or (ii) if such yields are not reported as of such time or the yields reported as of such time are not ascertainable (including by way of interpolation), the Treasury Constant Maturity Series Yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (or any comparable successor publication) for U.S. Treasury securities having a constant maturity equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date.

In the case of each determination under clause (i) or clause (ii), as the case may be, of the preceding paragraph, such implied yield will be determined, if necessary, by (a) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly between (1) the applicable U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and greater than such Remaining Average Life and (2) the applicable U.S. Treasury security with the maturity closest to and less than such Remaining Average Life. The Reinvestment Yield shall be rounded to the number of decimal places as appears in the interest rate of the applicable Note.

“Remaining Average Life” means, with respect to any Called Principal of any Note, the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) obtained by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) that will elapse between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of the Notes, then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and required to be paid on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 12.1.

“Settlement Date” means, with respect to the Called Principal of any Note, the date on which such Called Principal is to be prepaid pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.8 or has become or is declared to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, as the context requires.

8.7. Offer to Prepay Upon Disposition of Certain Assets.

(a) Notice and Offer. In the event of any proposed Debt Prepayment Application under Section 10.2(b) of this Agreement, the Company shall, within ten (10) days of the occurrence of the Disposition giving rise to such proposed Debt Prepayment Application (a “Debt Prepayment Disposition”) in respect of which an offer to prepay the Notes (the “Disposition Prepayment Offer”) is being made to comply with the requirements for a Debt Prepayment Application (as set forth in the definition thereof), in respect of such Debt Prepayment Disposition, give written notice of such Debt Prepayment Disposition to each holder of Notes. Such written notice shall contain, and such written notice shall constitute, an irrevocable offer to prepay, at the election of each holder, a portion of the principal of the Notes held by such holder equal to such holder’s Ratable Portion of the Net Proceeds Amount in respect of such Debt Prepayment Disposition on a date specified in such notice (the “Disposition Prepayment Date”) that is not less than thirty (30) days and not more than sixty (60) days after the date of such notice, together with interest on the amount to be so prepaid accrued to the Disposition Prepayment Date. If the Disposition Prepayment Date shall not be specified in such notice, the Disposition Prepayment Date shall be the fortieth (40th) day after the date of such notice.

(b) Acceptance and Payment. To accept such Disposition Prepayment Offer, a holder of Notes shall cause a notice of such acceptance to be delivered to the Company not later than twenty (20) days after the date of such written notice from the Company, provided, that failure to accept such offer in writing within twenty (20) days after the date of such written notice shall be deemed to constitute a rejection of the Disposition Prepayment Offer. If so accepted by any holder of a Note, such offered prepayment (equal to not less than such holder’s Ratable Portion of the Net Proceeds Amount in respect of such Debt Prepayment Disposition) shall be due and payable on the Disposition Prepayment Date. Such offered prepayment shall be made at one hundred percent (100%) of the principal amount of such Notes being so prepaid, together with interest on such principal amount then being prepaid accrued to the Disposition Prepayment Date, but shall not include any Make-Whole Amount. If a holder of a Note declines a Disposition Prepayment Offer a Debt Prepayment Application shall be deemed to have been made under Section 10.2(b) with respect to that portion of such Net Proceeds Amount equal to such holder’s Ratable Portion thereof.

(c) Officer’s Certificate. Each offer to prepay the Notes pursuant to this Section 8.7 shall be accompanied by a certificate, executed by a Senior Financial Officer and dated the date of such offer, specifying (i) the Disposition Prepayment Date, (ii) the Net Proceeds Amount in respect of the applicable Debt Prepayment Disposition, (iii) that such offer is being made pursuant to Section 8.7 and Section 10.2(b) of this Agreement, (iv) the principal amount of each Note offered to be prepaid, (v) the interest that would be

due on each Note offered to be prepaid, accrued to the Disposition Prepayment Date, and (vi) in reasonable detail, the nature of the Disposition giving rise to such Disposition Prepayment Offer and certifying that no Default or Event of Default exists or would exist after giving effect to the prepayment contemplated by such offer.

(d) Notice Concerning Status of Holders of Notes. Promptly after each Disposition Prepayment Date and the making of all prepayments contemplated on such Disposition Prepayment Date under this Section 8.7 (and, in any event, within thirty (30) days thereafter), the Company shall deliver to each holder of Notes a certificate signed by a Senior Financial Officer containing a list of the then current holders of Notes (together with their addresses) and setting forth as to each such holder the outstanding principal amount of Notes held by such holder at such time.

8.8. Change in Control.

(a) Notice of Change in Control or Control Event — The Company will, within five Business Days after any Responsible Officer has knowledge of the occurrence of any Change in Control or Control Event, give written notice of such Change in Control or Control Event to each holder of Notes unless notice in respect of such Change in Control (or the Change in Control contemplated by such Control Event) shall have been given pursuant to Section 8.8(b). If a Change in Control has occurred, such notice shall contain and constitute an offer to prepay Notes as described in Section 8.8(c) and shall be accompanied by the certificate described in Section 8.8(g).

(b) Condition to Company Action — The Company will not take any action that consummates or finalizes a Change in Control unless

(i) at least 30 days prior to such action it shall have given to each holder of Notes written notice containing and constituting an offer to prepay Notes as described in Section 8.8(c), accompanied by the certificate described in Section 8.8(g), and

(ii) contemporaneously with such action, it prepays all Notes required to be prepaid in accordance with this Section 8.8.

If such Proposed Prepayment Date is in connection with an offer contemplated by Section 8.8(a), such date shall be not less than 45 days and not more than 60 days after the date of such offer.

No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any holder of any Note in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such holder’s rights, powers or remedies. No right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement or by any Note upon any holder thereof shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. Without limiting the obligations of the Company under Section 15, the Company will pay to the holder of each Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all costs and expenses of such holder incurred in any enforcement or collection under this Section 12, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements.

Notes shall not be transferred in denominations of less than $500,000, provided that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a holder of its entire holding of Notes, one Note may be in a denomination of less than $500,000. Any transferee, by its acceptance of a Note registered in its name (or the name of its nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representation set forth in Section 6.2.

13.3. Replacement of Notes.

Upon receipt by the Company at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in Section 18(iii)) of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note (which evidence shall be, in the case of an Institutional Investor, notice from such Institutional Investor of such ownership and such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation), and

(a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (provided that if the holder of such Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another holder of a Note with a minimum net worth of at least $100,000,000 or a Qualified Institutional Buyer, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or

(b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof,

within ten Business Days thereafter, the Company at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon.

14. PAYMENTS ON NOTES.

14.1. Place of Payment.

Subject to Section 14.2, payments of principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest becoming due and payable on the Notes shall be made in Fort Worth, Texas at the principal office of Wells Fargo Bank, National Association in such jurisdiction. The Company may at any time, by notice to each holder of a Note, change the place of payment of the Notes so long as such place of payment shall be either the principal office of the Company in such jurisdiction or the principal office of a bank or trust company in such jurisdiction.

14.2. Home Office Payment.

So long as any Purchaser or its nominee shall be the holder of any Note, and notwithstanding anything contained in Section 14.1 or in such Note to the contrary, the Company will pay all sums becoming due on such Note for principal, Make-Whole Amount, if any, and interest by the method and at the address specified for such purpose below such Purchaser’s name in Schedule A, or by such other method or at such other address as such Purchaser shall have from time to time specified to the Company in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of such Note or the making of any notation thereon, except that upon written request of the Company made concurrently with or reasonably promptly after payment or prepayment in full of any Note, such Purchaser shall surrender such Note for cancellation, reasonably promptly after any such request, to the Company at its principal executive office or at the place of payment most recently designated by the Company pursuant to Section 14.1. Prior to any sale or other disposition of any Note held by a Purchaser or its nominee, such Purchaser will, at its election, either endorse thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to which interest has been paid thereon or surrender such Note to the Company in exchange for a new Note or Notes pursuant to Section 13.2. The Company will afford the benefits of this Section 14.2 to any Institutional Investor that is the direct or indirect transferee of any Note purchased by a Purchaser under this Agreement and that has made the same agreement relating to such Note as the Purchasers have made in this Section 14.2.

15. EXPENSES, ETC.

15.1. Transaction Expenses.

Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Company will pay all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees of a special counsel and, if reasonably required by the Required Holders, local or other counsel) incurred by the Purchasers and each other holder of a Note in connection with such transactions and in connection with any amendments, waivers or consents under or in respect of the Loan Documents (whether or not such amendment, waiver or consent becomes effective), including, without limitation: (a) the costs and expenses incurred in enforcing or defending (or determining whether or how to enforce or defend) any rights under the Loan Documents or in responding to any subpoena or other legal process or informal investigative demand issued in connection with the Loan Documents, or by reason of being a holder of any Note, (b) the costs and expenses, including financial advisors’ fees, incurred in connection with the insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company or any

Subsidiary or in connection with any work-out or restructuring of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Notes and (c) the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the initial filing of this Agreement and all related documents and financial information with the SVO provided, that such costs and expenses under this clause (c) shall not exceed $5,000; provided that costs and expenses other than attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Notes shall not exceed $10,000. The Company will pay, and will save each Purchaser and each other holder of a Note harmless from, all claims in respect of any fees, costs or expenses, if any, of brokers and finders (other than those, if any, retained by a Purchaser or other holder in connection with its purchase of the Notes).

15.2. Survival.

The obligations of the Company under this Section 15 will survive the payment or transfer of any Note, the enforcement, amendment or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents, and the termination of the Loan Documents.

16. SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; ENTIRE AGREEMENT.

All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Notes, the purchase or transfer by any Purchaser of any Note or portion thereof or interest therein and the payment of any Note, and may be relied upon by any subsequent holder of a Note, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of such Purchaser or any other holder of a Note. All statements contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed representations and warranties of the Company under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement and the Notes embody the entire agreement and understanding between each Purchaser and the Company and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

17. AMENDMENT AND WAIVER.

17.1. Requirements.

This Agreement and the Notes may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof or of the Notes may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only with) the written consent of the Company and the Required Holders, except that (a) no amendment or waiver of any of the provisions of Section 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 21 hereof, or any defined term (as it is used therein), will be effective as to any Purchaser unless consented to by such Purchaser in writing, and (b) no such amendment or waiver may, without the written consent of the holder of each Note at the time outstanding affected thereby, (i) subject to the provisions of Section 12 relating to acceleration or rescission, change the amount or time of any prepayment or payment of principal of, or reduce the rate or change the time of payment or method of computation of interest or of the Make-Whole Amount on, the Notes, (ii) change the percentage of the principal amount of the Notes the holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or waiver, or (iii) amend any of Sections 8, 11(a), 11(b), 12, 17 or 20.

17.2.

Solicitation of Holders of Notes.

(a) Solicitation. The Company will provide each holder of the Notes (irrespective of the amount of Notes then owned by it) with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the date a decision is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof or of the Notes. The Company will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 17 to each holder of outstanding Notes promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of Notes.

(b) Payment. The Company will not directly or indirectly pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise, or grant any security or provide other credit support, to any holder of Notes as consideration for or as an inducement to the entering into by any holder of Notes of any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof unless such remuneration is concurrently paid, or security is concurrently granted or other credit support concurrently provided, on the same terms, ratably to each holder of Notes then outstanding even if such holder did not consent to such waiver or amendment.

17.3.

Binding Effect, etc.

Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 17 applies equally to all holders of Notes and is binding upon them and upon each future holder of any Note and upon the Company without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Company and the holder of any Note nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of such Note. As used herein, the terms “this Agreement” and “the Loan Documents” and references thereto shall mean this Agreement and the Loan Documents as they may from time to time be amended or supplemented.

17.4.

Notes Held by Company, etc.

Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Agreement or the Notes, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein or in the Notes to be taken upon the direction of the holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding.

18.

NOTICES.

All notices and communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing and sent (a) by telecopy if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by a

recognized overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), or (b) by registered or certified mail with return receipt requested (postage prepaid), or (c) by a recognized overnight delivery service (with charges prepaid). Any such notice must be sent:

(i) if to any Purchaser or its nominee, to such Purchaser or nominee at the address specified for such communications in Schedule A, or at such other address as such Purchaser or nominee shall have specified to the Company in writing,

(ii) if to any other holder of any Note, to such holder at such address as such other holder shall have specified to the Company in writing, or

(iii) if to the Company, to the Company at its address set forth at the beginning hereof to the attention of the President, or at such other address as the Company shall have specified to the holder of each Note in writing.

Notices under this Section 18 will be deemed given only when actually received.

19. REPRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS.

The Loan Documents and all documents relating thereto, including, without limitation, (a) consents, waivers and modifications that may hereafter be executed, (b) documents received by any Purchaser at the Closing (except the Notes themselves), and (c) financial statements, certificates and other information previously or hereafter furnished to any Purchaser, may be reproduced by such Purchaser by any photographic, photostatic, electronic, digital, or other similar process and such Purchaser may destroy any original document so reproduced. The Company agrees and stipulates that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by such Purchaser in the regular course of business) and any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence. This Section 19 shall not prohibit the Company or any other holder of Notes from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction.

20. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

For the purposes of this Section 20, “Confidential Information” means information delivered to any Purchaser by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to any of the Loan Documents that is proprietary in nature and that was clearly marked or labeled or otherwise adequately identified when received by such Purchaser as being confidential information of the Company or such Subsidiary, provided that such term does not include information that (a) was publicly known or otherwise known to such Purchaser prior to the time of such disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by such Purchaser or any person acting on such Purchaser’s behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known to such Purchaser other than through disclosure by the Company or any Subsidiary or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to such Purchaser under Section 7.1 that are otherwise publicly available. Each Purchaser will

maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information in accordance with procedures adopted by such Purchaser in good faith to protect confidential information of third parties delivered to such Purchaser, provided that such Purchaser may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, trustees and affiliates (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of the investment represented by its Notes), (ii) its financial advisors and other professional advisors who agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with the terms of this Section 20, (iii) any other holder of any Note, (iv) any Institutional Investor to which it sells or offers to sell such Note or any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 20), (v) any Person from which it offers to purchase any security of the Company (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 20), (vi) any federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Purchaser, (vii) the NAIC or the SVO or, in each case, any similar organization, or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about such Purchaser’s investment portfolio, or (viii) any other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (w) to effect compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable to such Purchaser, (x) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (y) in connection with any litigation to which such Purchaser is a party or (z) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent such Purchaser may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of the rights and remedies under such Purchaser’s Notes and any of the other Loan Documents. Each holder of a Note, by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 20 as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by the Company in connection with the delivery to any holder of a Note of information required to be delivered to such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will enter into an agreement with the Company embodying the provisions of this Section 20.

21. SUBSTITUTION OF PURCHASER.

Each Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its Affiliates as the purchaser of the Notes that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, by written notice to the Company, which notice shall be signed by both such Purchaser and such Affiliate, shall contain such Affiliate’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Affiliate of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 6. Upon receipt of such notice, any reference to such Purchaser in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), shall be deemed to refer to such Affiliate in lieu of such original Purchaser. In the event that such Affiliate is so substituted as a Purchaser hereunder and such Affiliate thereafter transfers to such original Purchaser all of the Notes then held by such Affiliate, upon receipt by the Company of notice of such transfer, any reference to such Affiliate as a “Purchaser” in this Agreement (other than in this Section 21), shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Affiliate, but shall refer to such original Purchaser, and such original Purchaser shall again have all the rights of an original holder of the Notes under this Agreement.

22. MISCELLANEOUS.

22.1. Successors and Assigns.

All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including, without limitation, any subsequent holder of a Note) whether so expressed or not.

22.2. Payments Due on Non-Business Days.

Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding (but without limiting the requirement in Section 8.4 that the notice of any optional prepayment specify a Business Day as the date fixed for such prepayment), any payment of principal of or Make-Whole Amount or interest on any Note that is due on a date other than a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day without including the additional days elapsed in the computation of the interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day; provided that if the maturity date of any Note is a date other than a Business Day, the payment otherwise due on such maturity date shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and shall include the additional days elapsed in the computation of interest payable on such next succeeding Business Day.

22.3. Interest.

(a) Each provision in this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents is expressly limited so that in no event whatsoever shall the amount paid, or otherwise agreed to be paid, to any holder of Notes for the use, forbearance or detention of the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes or any other Loan Document or otherwise (including any sums paid as required by any covenant or obligation contained herein or in any other Loan Document which is for the use, forbearance or detention of such money), exceed that amount of money which would cause the effective rate of interest to exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, and all amounts owed under this Agreement, the Notes and each other Loan Document shall be held to be subject to reduction to the effect that such amounts so paid or agreed to be paid which are for the use, forbearance or detention of money under this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Documents shall in no event exceed that amount of money which would cause the effective rate of interest to exceed the Highest Lawful Rate.

(b) Anything in this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall never be required to pay unearned interest on any Note or ever be required to pay interest on such Note at a rate in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, and if the effective rate of interest which would otherwise be payable under this Agreement, such Note or any other Loan Document would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, or if the holder of such Note shall receive any unearned interest or shall receive monies that are deemed to constitute interest which would increase the effective rate of interest payable by the Company under this Agreement, such Note and the other Loan Documents to a rate in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then (i) the amount of interest which would otherwise be payable by the Company under this

Agreement, such Note and the other Loan Documents shall be reduced to the amount allowed under applicable law and (ii) any unearned interest paid by the Company or any interest paid by the Company in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate shall be in the first instance credited on the principal of such Note with the excess thereof, if any, refunded to the Company.

(c) It is further agreed that, without limitation of the foregoing, all calculations of the rate of interest contracted for, charged or received by any holder of Notes under the Notes held by it, or under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, which are made for the purpose of determining whether such rate exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate shall be made, to the extent permitted by usury laws applicable to such Notes (now or hereafter enacted), by amortizing, prorating and spreading in equal parts during the period of the full stated term of the loans evidenced by said Notes all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received by such holder of Notes in connection therewith.

(d) If, at any time and from time to time, (i) the amount of interest payable to any holder of Notes on any date shall be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate and (ii) in respect of any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise payable to such holder would be less than the Highest Lawful Rate, then the amount of interest payable to such holder in respect of such subsequent interest computation period shall continue to be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest payable to such holder shall equal the total amount of interest which would have been payable to such holder if the total amount of interest had been computed without giving effect to this Section 22.3.

22.4. Accounting Terms.

All accounting terms used herein which are not expressly defined in this Agreement have the meanings respectively given to them in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, (i) all computations made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in accordance with GAAP, and (ii) all financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP.

22.5. Severability.

Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

22.6. Construction, etc.

Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by

any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.

For the avoidance of doubt, all Schedules and Exhibits attached to this Agreement shall be deemed to be a part hereof.

22.7. Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto.

22.8. Governing Law.

This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of New York excluding choice-of-law principles of the law of such State that would permit the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such State.

22.9. Jurisdiction and Process; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) Each of the Company and each Purchaser irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Notes. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Company and each Purchaser irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(b) Each of the Company and each Purchaser consents to process being served by or on behalf of any holder of Notes in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 22.9(a) by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to it at its address specified in Section 18 or at such other address of which such holder shall then have been notified pursuant to said Section. Each of the Company and each Purchaser agrees that such service upon receipt (i) shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon it in any such suit, action or proceeding and (ii) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be taken and held to be valid personal service upon and personal delivery to it. Notices hereunder shall be conclusively presumed received as evidenced by a delivery receipt furnished by the United States Postal Service or any reputable commercial delivery service.

(c) Nothing in this Section 22.9 shall affect the right of any holder of a Note to serve process in any manner permitted by law, or limit any right that the holders of any

of the Notes may have to bring proceedings against the Company in the courts of any appropriate jurisdiction (if such court can properly assert jurisdiction over the subject matter of such proceedings) or to enforce in any lawful manner a judgment obtained in one jurisdiction in any other jurisdiction.

(d) The parties hereto hereby waive trial by jury in any action brought on or with respect to any of the Loan Documents or any other document executed in connection therewith.

22.10. Indemnification.

The Company hereby waives any claim for contribution against any Indemnitee and agrees to indemnify, exonerate and hold each Indemnitee free and harmless from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, citations, directives, demands, assessments, losses, liabilities, damages and expenses, including (without limitation) reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (subject to the provisions of Section 15.1) and, in the case of clause (e) below, fees and disbursements of environmental consultants (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred, suffered, sustained or required to be paid by the Indemnitees or any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any transaction financed in whole or in part directly or indirectly with the proceeds of any of the Notes, (b) the exercise, protection or enforcement of rights, remedies, powers or privileges of any holder of Notes under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (c) the breach of any representation or warranty of any Loan Party contained herein or in any other Loan Document, (d) the nonfulfillment by any Loan Party of, or its failure to perform, any of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or (e) the presence of Hazardous Materials on, or the escape, seepage, leakage, spillage, discharge, emission or release of Hazardous Materials from, any of the real properties of the Company or any Subsidiary or any site, facility or location to which any material, products, waste or other substances from or attributable to the business or operations of the Company or any Subsidiary have been transported for treatment, disposal, storage or deposit, any violation of, or noncompliance with, any Environmental Law at any such property, site, facility or location, any Environmental Claim in connection with the Company or any property of the Company, except, in each case, for any of such Indemnified Liabilities arising on account of such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, and if and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of the Indemnified Liabilities that is permissible under applicable law. The obligations of the Company under this Section 22.10 shall survive the transfer and payment of the Notes.

22.11. Survival of Indemnities, etc.

The indemnities contained in this Agreement are cumulative and in addition to the indemnities contained in the other Loan Documents and shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the transfer and payment of the Notes.

NATURE AND SCOPE OF GUARANTY

Section 2.1. Guaranty.

(a) Subject to Section 2.1(d) below, the Guarantors, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee the full and prompt (i) payment in full when due, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of any and all Guaranteed Obligations, including all such amounts which would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §§362(a), and the operations of Sections 502(b) and 506(b) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §§502(b) and §§506(b), except, in the case of any Guarantor, as such sections are applicable in connection with a bankruptcy proceeding initiated by or against such Guarantor and (ii) performance in full of all obligations of the Company under the Note Purchase Agreement and the other Operative Documents.

(b) Each Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Purchasers, any other holder of Notes or any other Person to any security held for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or to any balance of any account or credit on the books of the Purchasers, any other holder of Notes or any other Person in favor of the Company or any other Person. The guaranty provided for herein shall be a continuing guaranty and shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations.

(c) Each Guarantor further agrees, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which the Purchasers, any other holder of Notes or any other Person may have at law or in equity against such Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether by required prepayment, acceleration or otherwise (including amounts which would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §§362(a), except as such section is applicable in connection with a bankruptcy proceeding initiated by or against such Guarantor), such Guarantor will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the holders of Notes an amount in the aggregate equal to the sum of (i) the unpaid principal amount of such Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid, (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (including interest which, but for the filing of a petition in bankruptcy with respect to the Company, would accrue on such Guaranteed Obligations) and (iii) all other Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid.

(d) Anything herein or in the Note Purchase Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, the liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not, in any event,

Exhibit 3-4

exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by such Guarantor under applicable federal and state laws relating to the insolvency of debtors and fraudulent conveyance.

Section 2.2. Guaranteed Obligations Not Reduced by Offset.

None of the Guaranteed Obligations nor any of the liabilities and obligations of the Guarantors to the holders of Notes hereunder shall be reduced, discharged, terminated or released because or by reason of any existing or future offset, claim or defense of the Company, any Guarantor or any other Person against the holders of Notes (or any of them) or against payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether such offset, claim or defense arises in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations (or the transactions creating the Guaranteed Obligations) or otherwise. Without limiting the foregoing or the Guarantors’ liability hereunder, to the extent that the holders of Notes do not receive payments or benefits on the Notes in the amounts and at the times required or provided by the Operative Documents or Legal Requirements, the Guarantors, jointly and severally, shall be absolutely liable to make such payments to (and confer such benefits on) the holders of Notes, on a timely basis.

Section 2.3. Irrevocability of Guaranty.

This Guaranty is intended to be an irrevocable, absolute, continuing guaranty of payment and is not a guaranty of collection. This Guaranty may not be revoked by any Guarantor or the Company.

Section 2.4. Payment by the Guarantors.

If all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not be punctually paid when due, whether at maturity or earlier by acceleration or otherwise, the Guarantors shall, immediately upon demand by the Purchasers or any holder of Notes, whether individually or collectively, and without presentment, protest, notice of protest, notice of nonpayment, notice of intention to accelerate or acceleration or any other notice whatsoever, jointly and severally pay the amount due on the Guaranteed Obligations to the holders of Notes. Such demand(s) may be made at any time coincident with or after the time for payment of all or part of the Guaranteed Obligations, and may be made from time to time with respect to the same or different items of Guaranteed Obligations. Such demand(s) shall be deemed made, given and received in accordance with Section 7.2 hereof.

Section 2.5. Payment of Expenses.

In the event any Guarantor should breach or fail to timely perform any provisions of this Guaranty, the Guarantors shall, immediately upon demand by the holders of Notes, jointly and severally pay all costs and expenses (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the holders of Notes (or any of them) in the enforcement hereof or the preservation of such holders’ rights hereunder. The covenant contained in this Section 2.5 shall survive the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.

Exhibit 3-5

Section 2.6. No Duty to Pursue Others.

(a) It shall not be necessary for the holders of Notes (and each Guarantor hereby waives any rights which such Guarantor may have to require the holders of Notes), in order to enforce payment by such Guarantor hereunder, first to (i) institute suit or exhaust their remedies against the Company, any other Guarantor or any other Person, (ii) enforce such holders’ rights against any security which shall ever have been given to secure the Guaranteed Obligations, (iii) enforce such holders’ rights against any other Guarantors, (iv) join the Company, any other Guarantor or any others liable on the Guaranteed Obligations in any action seeking to enforce this Guaranty, (v) exhaust any remedies available to the holders of Notes against any security which shall ever have been given to secure the Guaranteed Obligations or (vi) resort to any other means of obtaining payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.

(b) The holders of Notes shall not be required to mitigate damages or take any other action to reduce, collect or enforce the Guaranteed Obligations.

(b) The foregoing paragraph (a) is expressly limited so that in no event whatsoever shall the amount paid, or otherwise agreed to be paid, thereunder by any Guarantor to any holder of Notes for the use, forbearance or detention of money exceed that amount of money which would cause the effective rate of interest to exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, and all amounts owed by any Guarantor under such paragraph (a) shall be held to be subject to reduction to the effect that such amounts so paid or agreed to be paid by such Guarantor which are for the use, forbearance or detention of money shall in no event exceed that amount of money which would cause the effective rate of interest to exceed the Highest Lawful Rate.

(c) Anything in this Section 7.14 to the contrary notwithstanding, no Guarantor shall ever be required by this Section 7.14 to pay unearned interest or ever be required by this Section 7.14 to pay interest at a rate in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, and if the effective rate of interest which would otherwise be payable by such Guarantor under this Section 7.14 would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, or if any holder of Notes shall receive any unearned interest from such Guarantor under this Section 7.14 or shall receive monies from such Guarantor under this Section 7.14 that are deemed to constitute interest which would increase the effective rate of interest payable by such Guarantor under this Section 7.14 to a rate in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then (i) the amount of interest which would otherwise be payable by such Guarantor under this Section 7.14 shall be reduced to the amount allowed under applicable law and (ii) any unearned interest paid by such Guarantor under this Section 7.14 or any interest paid by such Guarantor under this Section 7.14 in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate shall be in the first instance credited on the principal of the Guaranteed Obligations with the excess thereof, if any, refunded to such Guarantor.

(d) It is further agreed that, without limitation of the foregoing, all calculations of the rate of interest contracted for, charged or received by any holder of Notes under this Section 7.14 which are made for the purpose of determining whether such rate exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate shall be made, to the extent permitted by usury laws applicable to this Guaranty (now or hereafter enacted), by amortizing, prorating and spreading in equal parts during the period of the full stated term of this Guaranty all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received by such holder of Notes under this Section 7.14.

(e) If, at any time and from time to time, (i) the amount of interest payable under this Section 7.14 by any Guarantor to any holder of Notes on any date shall be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate and (ii) in respect of any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise payable to such holder would be less than the Highest Lawful Rate, then the amount of interest payable by such Guarantor to such holder under this Section 7.14 in respect of such subsequent interest computation period shall continue to be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest payable by such Guarantor to such holder shall equal the total amount of interest which would have been payable to such holder by such Guarantor if the total amount of interest had been computed without giving effect to this Section 7.14.

Exhibit 3-19

Section 7.15. Judgment Currency.

(a) The obligation of each Guarantor hereunder to make payments to any holder of Notes in U.S. Dollars shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than U.S. Dollars, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by such holder of the full amount of U.S. Dollars expressed to be payable to such holder under this Guaranty. If for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Guarantor in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than U.S. Dollars (such other currency being referred to in this Section 7.15 as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in U.S. Dollars, the conversion shall be made, at the Dollar Equivalent, as of the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being referred to in this Section 7.15 as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”). For purposes of this Section 7.15, the term “Dollar Equivalent” shall mean, with respect to any monetary amount in a currency other than U.S. Dollars, at any time for the determination thereof, the amount of U.S. Dollars obtained by converting such foreign currency involved in such computation into U.S. Dollars at the spot rate for the purchase of U.S. Dollars with the applicable foreign currency as quoted to such holder of Notes by a nationally recognized commercial bank or investment bank, which is not affiliated with such holder of Notes, at approximately 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date of determination thereof specified herein.

(b) If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment by the relevant Guarantor of the amount due, such Guarantor covenants and agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of U.S. Dollars which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.

(c) For purposes of determining the Dollar Equivalent for this Section 7.15, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the U.S. Dollars.

Section 7.16. Performance of Covenants, etc.

Each Guarantor agrees, as an independent undertaking with the Purchasers and the other holders of Notes, to perform the covenants applicable to it contained in Article 9 and Article 10 of the Note Purchase Agreement. Neither the Company nor any Guarantor shall undertake any course of action inconsistent with the provisions or intent of this Guaranty or any of the Operative Documents. The Company and each Guarantor will promptly do all acts and things and take all such measures as may be necessary or appropriate, or as the Required Holders may reasonably request, to comply as soon as practicable with the terms, conditions and provisions of this Guaranty.

[FORM OF OPINION OF SPECIAL COUNSEL FOR THE LOAN PARTIES]

January 28, 2010

To the Persons listed
on the attached Annex 1


		Re:		Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of January 28, 2010, among Cash America International, Inc. and the Purchasers listed on Schedule A thereto

Gentlemen:

As counsel to Cash America International, Inc. (the “Company”), a Texas corporation, we have been requested to furnish this letter to you pursuant to Section 4.4(a) of that certain Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of January 28, 2010 (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) among the Company and the purchasers listed on Schedule A thereto (the “Purchasers”), which Note Purchase Agreement provides for the Company’s sale to the Purchasers on this date, pursuant to the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement, of $25,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 7.26% Senior Notes due January 28, 2017. Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms used herein that are defined in the Note Purchase Agreement shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Note Purchase Agreement.

A. Basis of Opinion

As the basis for the conclusions expressed in this opinion letter, this firm has examined and is familiar with originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to this firm’s satisfaction, of (i) the Note Purchase Agreement; (ii) the promissory notes of the Company in the aggregate principal amount of $25,000,000 and in the form attached as Exhibit 1 to the Note Purchase Agreement (the “Notes”); (iii) the Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as amended to date; (iv) the Bylaws of the Company, as amended to date; (v) a certificate of the Secretary of the Company to which are attached (a) the Articles of Incorporation of the Company, as amended to date, (b ) the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company (the “Bylaws”), (c) resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company authorizing the execution, delivery and performance of the Note Purchase Agreement and the Notes; (d) a certificate of existence of the Company issued by the Secretary of State of Texas and a Certificate of Good Standing issued by the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, and (e) a letter addressed to this firm and Bingham McCutchen LLP, special counsel to the Purchasers, describing the manner of the conduct of the offering (the “Offeree Letter”). This firm has also examined such other documents and instruments (including certificates of public officials, officers of the Company and other persons) and made such examination of applicable laws of the State of Texas and federal laws of the United States, all as this firm has deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions

Exhibit 4.4(a)-1

hereinafter expressed. As used herein, the term “Loan Documents” means, collectively, the Note Purchase Agreement and the Notes.

B. Opinion

Based upon our examination and consideration of the documents and instruments referred to in Section A and in reliance thereon, but subject to the comments, assumptions, limitations, qualifications and exceptions set forth in Section C, this firm is of the opinion that:

1. The Company is a corporation duly incorporated and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Texas.

2. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party and to own its properties and conduct its business.

3. The Loan Documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms.

4. The execution and delivery of, and performance of the obligations under, the Loan Documents by the Company (i) will not violate any provision of the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company, or (ii) to this firm’s knowledge, violate any Federal or Texas law or regulation.

5. No consent, approval, authorization or other action by any Governmental Authority is required for the execution and the delivery by the Company of the Loan Documents.

6. The offering, issuance, sale and delivery of the Notes under the circumstances contemplated by the Note Purchase Agreement and the Offeree Letter constitutes an exempt transaction under the registration provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and neither the registration of the Notes under such provisions nor the qualification of an indenture in respect of the Notes under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, is required in connection with such offering, issuance, sale and delivery.

7. The issuance and sale of the Notes under the circumstances contemplated by the Note Purchase Agreement will not involve a violation by the Company of Regulation U, T or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System promulgated pursuant to Section 7 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

8. The Company is not an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Exhibit 4.4(a)-2

9. The loan, as evidenced by the Notes, is not usurious under the laws of Texas (assuming for purposes of this opinion, courts were to apply Texas law).

C. Comments, Assumption, Limitations, Qualifications and Exceptions

The opinions expressed in Section B above are based upon and subject to the further comments, assumptions, limitations, qualifications and exceptions as set forth below:

1. This firm’s validity, binding effect and enforceability opinion in Paragraph B.3 is subject to the effects of (i) bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium and other similar laws from time to time affecting creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) the application of general principles of equity (including, without limitation, standards of materiality, good faith, fair dealing and reasonableness), whether such principles are considered in a proceeding at law or in equity. This firm’s validity, binding effect and enforceability opinion in Paragraph B.3 is also subject to other applicable law and court decisions which may modify, limit, render unenforceable or invalid or delay certain of the rights and remedies of the Purchasers, which, in this firm’s opinion, should not materially diminish the ultimate practical realization of the principal legal benefits purported to be conferred by the Loan Documents, except for the economic consequences of any judicial, administrative, procedural or other delay which may be imposed by, relate to or result from such laws and court decisions.

2. This firm expresses no opinion as to:

(i) the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any provision of the Loan Documents relating to indemnification, contribution, or exculpation in connection with (a) violations of any securities laws or statutory duties or public policy, to the extent that such provisions are determined to be contrary to public policy, as interpreted by the courts of the State of Texas and the courts of the United States, or (b) claims, losses or liabilities of an unreasonable amount or attributable to the indemnified party negligence or willful misconduct;

(ii) the validity, binding effect or enforceability of (a) any purported waiver, release, variation, disclaimer, consent or other provision contained in the Loan Documents to similar effect (all of the foregoing, collectively, a “Waiver”) by the Company under any of the Loan Documents to the extent limited by Sections 9.602 of the Uniform Commercial Code, as in effect in the State of Texas (“UCC”) or other provisions of applicable law (including judicial decisions), or to the extent that such a Waiver applies to a right, right to notice, claim, duty, defense, or ground for discharge or other benefits otherwise existing or occurring as a matter of law (including judicial decisions), except to the extent that such a Waiver is effective under and is not prohibited by or void or invalid under the UCC or other provisions of applicable law (including judicial decisions), (b) any provision of any Loan Documents related to Waiver of any rights to forum selection or submission to jurisdiction (including, without limitation, any Waiver of any objection to venue in any court or of any objection that a court is an inconvenient forum ) and provisions restricting access to courts or to legal or equitable

Exhibit 4.4(a)-3

remedies or purporting to contractually submit the Company and the other Loan Parties to the jurisdiction, venue and personal jurisdiction of particular courts and advance consent to the manner of service of process, or (c) any provision of the Loan Documents that (i) provides that decisions by a party are conclusive; (ii) expressly or by implication waives unknown rights, defenses granted by law or claims that have not matured, where such Waivers are against public policy or prohibited by laws; (iii) allows or authorizes the delay or omission of enforcement of any remedy or right; (iv) waives the legal rights of any party in advance; (v) severs unenforceable provisions from the Loan Documents, to the extent that enforcement of remaining provisions would frustrate the fundamental intent of the parties to the Loan Documents, and (vi) provides for interest recapture under Section 22.3(d) of the Note Purchase Agreement;

(iii) the enforceability of any provision in the Loan Documents specifying that provisions thereof may be waived only in writing, to the extent that an oral agreement or an implied agreement by trade practice or course of conduct has been created that modifies any provision of such Loan Documents;

(iv) the enforceability of any provision of the Loan Documents that purports to give any person or entity the power to accelerate obligations without any notice to the Company; the effect of any law or any jurisdiction other than the State of Texas wherein any Purchaser or any other holders of Notes or any Loan Party may be located or wherein enforcement of any Loan Documents may be sought that limits the rates of interest legally chargeable or collectible; and

(v) the enforceability of cumulative remedies to the extent such cumulative remedies purport to or would have the effect of compensating the party entitled to the benefits thereof in amounts in excess of the actual loss suffered by such party (other than the Make-Whole Amount, as to which we opine in paragraph C.3 below).

(vi) the submission of jurisdiction to the extent it relates to the subject matter jurisdiction of any court;

(vii) the enforceability of any waiver of a trial by jury or waiver of objection to venue or claim of an inconvenient forum with respect to proceedings;

(viii) the waiver of any right to have service of process made in the manner presented by applicable law;

(ix) the appointment of any Person as attorney in fact insofar as exercise of such power of attorney may be limited by public policy or limitations referred to elsewhere in this opinion;

(x) the ability of any Person to receive the remedies of specific performance, injunctive relief, liquidated damages or any similar remedy in any proceeding;

(xi) any right to the appointment of a receiver;

Exhibit 4.4(a)-4

(xii) any right to obtain possession of any property or the exercise of self-help remedies or other remedies without judicial process;

(xiii) any waiver or limitation concerning mitigation of damages;

(xiv) the availability of the right of rescission;

(xv) any law or regulation relating to federal, state or local taxation, federal or state environmental regulation, labor laws, intellectual property laws, antitrust laws or those relating to zoning, land use or subdivision laws, ERISA and similar matters or any Federal or state securities laws or regulations; and

(xvi) the enforceability of any right to receive interest on interest.

3. With regard to the provisions of the Note Purchase Agreement providing for payment of the Make-Whole Amount in certain circumstances, if a court were to conclude that the Make-Whole Amount should be characterized as a penalty, it likely would not be enforceable. And although we have not found a decision by a Texas state court holding to be a penalty the type of prepayment premium that is represented by the make-whole amount in the note purchase agreement, we are aware of court decisions in federal bankruptcy proceedings analyzing this issue. In this regard, we also note that Section 306.005 of the Texas Finance Code (the “Finance Code”) provides, in pertinent part, that a prepayment penalty, make-whole premium or similar fee or charge in the event of voluntary prepayment, involuntary prepayment, acceleration of maturity or other cause that involves premature termination of a loan that is classified as a “commercial loan” within the meaning of the Finance Code (as is the case of the Notes) does not constitute interest. It is our opinion that if a Texas court were to follow Section 306.005 of the Finance Code, the Make-Whole Amount should not be considered a penalty.

4. The opinion expressed in Paragraph B.6 is based on the assumed veracity of the representations and warranties of the Purchasers contained in Article VI of the Note Purchase Agreement. The opinion expressed in Paragraph B.7 is based on the assumption that the proceeds of the Notes contemplated by the Note Purchase Agreement are used solely in the manner prescribed in the Note Purchase Agreement.

5. To the extent that the obligations of the Company may be dependent upon such matters, this firm has assumed for purposes of this opinion, without independent investigation, that each of the Purchasers is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized, that the Note Purchase Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by and is enforceable against each of the Purchasers in accordance with its terms, and that each of the Purchasers has the requisite power and authority to perform its obligations under the Note Purchase Agreement. This firm expresses no opinion as to the compliance by each of the Purchasers with any state or federal laws or regulations applicable to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents because of the nature of its business or facts relating specifically to them, or as to the effect of any such noncompliance on the opinions set forth above, and this firm has assumed that each of the Purchasers has obtained

Exhibit 4.4(a)-5

and maintains all consents, approvals, and has taken all action that might be required by reason of their involvement in this transaction based upon its legal or regulatory status or other factors relating specifically to the Purchasers.

6. The qualification of any opinion or statement herein by the use of the words “to this firm’s knowledge” means that during the course of representation, as described in this opinion, no information has come to the attention of the attorneys in this firm engaged to represent the Company professionally with regard to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents which would give such attorneys current actual knowledge of the existence of the facts so qualified. Except as set forth herein, this firm has not undertaken any investigation to determine the existence of such facts, and no inference as to our knowledge thereof shall be drawn from the fact of our representation of any party or otherwise.

7. This firm has made no investigation to determine, and expresses no opinion as to, whether the courts of the State of Texas or the State of New York or any other state would accept the parties’ selection of the laws of the State of New York as the laws governing the Loan Documents, or would, under its applicable choice of law doctrines, apply the law of another jurisdiction.

8. In rendering the opinions expressed in Paragraphs B.3, 4 and 9, these opinions, insofar as they involve the issue of usury, are expressly limited (i) to an analysis of whether the Loan Documents, as written, will be subject to a defense, claim or setoff as a result of the Purchasers’ contracting for a usurious rate of interest and (ii) to the issues relating to the contracting for, as opposed to the charging or receiving of, usurious amounts of interest. To the extent that the enforceability of Loan Documents may be adversely affected by the usury laws of the State of Texas, and to the extent that the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents may otherwise involve an analysis of compliance with such laws, in rendering the opinions in Paragraphs B.3, 4 and 10, this firm assumes (i) that the Purchasers and each other holder of Notes, if any, duly observes the provisions of the Note Purchase Agreement limiting the interest contracted for or to be charged or collected by the Purchasers and any other holder of Notes on or in connection with the loan evidenced by the Notes to amounts that do not exceed the maximum rate or amount of interest that may lawfully be contracted for, charged or collected thereon or in connection therewith under applicable law, (ii) that there exist no agreements or documents that provide for the payment to the Purchasers and other holders of Notes, if any, of amounts deemed to be interest under applicable law except as specifically provided in the Loan Documents, (iii) that the Company has unrestricted use of the purchase price of the Notes, and (iv) that any acceleration of the maturity of the Notes will not include the right to accelerate any amounts deemed interest under applicable law that has not otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration. In the bankruptcy case of In re Abramoff, 92 Bankruptcy Reporter 698 (W.D. Texas 1988), the Bankruptcy Court, at subsection C of its opinion (pages 704-705), distinguished between a prepayment fee in the case of a voluntary prepayment and one in the case of an involuntary prepayment (e.g. acceleration due to default); and, in this firm’s opinion, the court characterized the prepayment fee as interest. Therefore, this firm advises you that, according to the Abramoff decision, the Make-Whole Amount might possibly be characterized as interest in the context of an involuntary prepayment; if the Purchasers and the other holders of Notes, if any, comply with the usury “savings clause” in the Note Purchase Agreement, such

Exhibit 4.4(a)-6

characterization would not cause the Notes to be usurious, if Texas law was deemed to be applicable to the Notes. Further, we advise you that, as discussed infra in Section C.3, that Section 306.005 of the Texas Finance Code provides that the payment of a prepayment fee or make-whole premium, such as the Make-Whole Amount, in the event of involuntary payment or acceleration on maturity does not constitute interest, which if followed by a Texas court, would supersede the Abramoff decision.

Further, in rendering the opinions in Paragraphs B.3, 4 and 9, this firm has relied upon the reported decisions of several lower Texas courts to the effect that a contract requiring the payment of interest on matured, unpaid installments of interest is not usurious. The status of judicial interpretations of Texas usury laws is not yet settled in this regard; therefore, no absolute opinion can be rendered. In the event that any of the Purchasers or any one or more of the holders of Notes actually demand, charge or collect any amounts in excess of those permitted by any applicable usury laws of the State of Texas, this firm expresses no opinion as to the effectiveness or enforceability of any provision of the Loan Documents that purports to permit the cure of such violation by the rescission of such demand or charge, the refund of excess amounts collected, or otherwise.

9. The opinions expressed in Paragraph B.1 with respect to existence, qualification and good standing are expressed as of the date on which applicable certificates were issued by authorities of the jurisdiction covered, and have assumed that the certificates so issued evidence, as the case may be, the valid existence, due qualification and good standing of the entity covered thereby.

10. The opinions expressed herein are specifically limited to the laws of the State of Texas and federal law of the United States of America. We note that the Loan Documents have selected laws of the State of New York to govern this transaction. We express no opinion regarding the laws of the State of New York. In expressing this firm’s opinion in Paragraph B.3 as to the validity, binding effect and enforceability of the Loan Documents governed by the laws of the State of New York, this firm has assumed that the Loan Documents are governed by the internal laws of the State of Texas.

11. In expressing this firm’s opinion in Paragraph B.5, such opinion relating to Governmental Authorities is expressly limited to Governmental Authorities of the State of Texas and the United States of America.

12. In this firm’s examinations described in Paragraph A, we have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons executing the Loan Documents, the authenticity of original and certified documents and the genuineness of all signatures thereon, and the conformity to original or certified documents of all documents submitted to us as conformed or reproduction copies. As to various questions of fact relevant to the opinions expressed herein, this firm has relied upon, and assumed the accuracy of, representations and warranties contained in the Loan Documents and certificates and written statements and other written information of or from public officials and representatives of the Company and the other Loan Parties. In addition, this firm’s opinions are limited to a review of only those laws and regulations that are specifically

Exhibit 4.4(a)-7

referred to herein and such other laws and regulations that, in our experience, are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Loan Documents.

13. Although this firm has acted as counsel to the Company and the other Loan Parties in connection with certain other matters, this firm’s engagement is limited to certain matters about which this firm has been consulted, and, consequently, there may exist matters involving the Company and other Loan Parties about which this firm has not been consulted and for which the firm has not been engaged to represent them.

14. Certain of the opinions set forth in Paragraph B are based upon factual matters not independently verified by this firm and, to that extent, this firm has relied solely upon certain of the representations and warranties contained in the Loan Documents and upon certain of the statements contained in certificates of public officials and officers of the Company referred to in Paragraph A.

15. This opinion is rendered based on this firm’s interpretation of existing Texas and federal law, and is not intended to speak with reference to standards hereinafter adopted or evolved in subsequent judicial decisions by Texas courts or by federal courts. Additionally, we assume no obligation to update or supplement such opinions to reflect any facts or circumstances that may hereafter come to our attention or any changes in law that may hereafter occur.

16. For purposes of rendering the opinion set forth in Paragraph B.3, we have assumed that the Note Purchase Agreement has been executed by the Purchasers and that the provisions of Section 4 of the Note Purchase Agreement have been satisfied.

The opinions expressed in this letter are limited to the matters set forth in this letter, and no other opinions should be inferred beyond the matters expressly stated. This opinion letter speaks as of its date and we do not undertake to advise you of any changes in the opinions express herein from matters that might hereafter arise or be brought to our attention.

The opinions set forth herein are expressed solely for the benefit of the Purchasers and all future holders of Notes (if any), and no other party shall be entitled to rely hereon without the express written consent of this firm; provided, however, we have no objection to the reliance thereon by Bingham McCutchen LLP, your special counsel, in connection with the opinion to be rendered by such firm to you on this date pursuant to Section 4.4(c) of the Note Purchase Agreement.

EXHIBIT 4.4(b)

[FORM OF OPINION OF GENERAL COUNSEL FOR THE LOAN PARTIES]

January 28, 2010

To each of the Persons listed on

Annex 1 hereto

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I am General Counsel of Cash America International, Inc. (the “Company”) and, in such capacity, I have represented the Company in connection with (i) the preparation of the Note Purchase Agreement dated as of January 28, 2010 (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) among the Company and each of the purchasers listed on Schedule A attached thereto (collectively, the “Purchasers”) and (ii) the Company’s sale to the Purchasers on this date, pursuant to the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement, of $25,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 7.26% Senior Notes due January 28, 2017. I have also acted as counsel to the “Guarantors” (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement and, together with the Company, the “Loan Parties”) in connection with the preparation of the Joint and Several Guaranty (the “Guaranty”) and the Subrogation and Contribution Agreement (the “Subrogation and Contribution Agreement”), each dated as of January 28, 2010, executed and delivered by the Guarantors pursuant to Section 4.11 of the Note Purchase Agreement. This opinion is being delivered to the Purchasers pursuant to Section 4.4(b) of the Note Purchase Agreement.

As used herein, (a) “Corporate Guarantor” means each Guarantor which is a corporation, (b) “Partnership Guarantor” means each Guarantor which is a partnership and (c) “LLC Guarantor” means each Guarantor which is a limited liability company. Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms used herein that are defined in the Note Purchase Agreement shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Note Purchase Agreement.

I have examined the following documents:

	a)		executed counterparts of the Note Purchase Agreement, the Guaranty and the Subrogation and Contribution Agreement;

	b)		the Company’s Senior Notes, dated the date hereof, in the aggregate principal amount of $25,000,000 and in the form of Exhibit 1 attached to the Note Purchase Agreement (the “Notes”) (the Notes, the Note Purchase Agreement, the Guaranty and the Subrogation and Contribution Agreement are referred to herein collectively as the “Loan Documents”);

	c)		copies of certain resolutions of the respective boards of directors of the Corporate Guarantors;

Exhibit 4.4(b)-1

	d)		copies of certain resolutions of the board of directors of the general partner of the Partnership Guarantors;

	e)		copies of certain resolutions of the managers or members of the LLC Guarantors;

	f)		copies of the respective charters and bylaws of the Corporate Guarantors;

	g)		copies of the respective partnership agreements of the Partnership Guarantors;

	h)		copies of the respective limited liability company agreements of the LLC Guarantors; and

	i)		the originals or copies of such other certificates, instruments, documents and records of the Loan Parties, certificates of public officials and certificates of officers of the Loan Parties as I have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions hereinafter expressed.

For purposes of this opinion, I have, with your approval and without independent investigation, assumed (i) the due authorization, execution and delivery of the Note Purchase Agreement by the Purchasers, (ii) the genuineness of the signatures appearing on all documents examined by me, (iii) the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals and (iv) the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to me as certified, conformed, or copies in photostatic or pdf format.

Certain of the opinions set forth below are based upon factual matters not independently established or verified by me and, to that extent, I have relied solely upon certain of the representations and warranties contained in the Loan Documents and upon certain of the statements contained in the certificates of public officials and of officers or managers of the Loan Parties.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the qualifications, limitations and assumptions set out at the end of this letter, I am of the opinion that:

	1.		Each Corporate Guarantor (a) is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of incorporation and (b) has the corporate power and authority to (i) execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Guaranty and the Subrogation and Contribution Agreement and (ii) own its properties and conduct its business.

	2.		Each Loan Party is duly qualified as a foreign Person and is in good standing in each jurisdiction wherein the character of the properties owned or held under lease by it or the nature of the business transacted by it requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

	3.		The Guaranty and the Subrogation and Contribution Agreement have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each Guarantor and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with their respective terms.

Exhibit 4.4(b)-2

	4.		Neither the execution nor delivery of any Loan Document by any Loan Party nor the compliance by such Loan Party with the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents to which it is a party will (i) violate any provision of the charter or bylaws or the partnership agreement or limited liability company agreement, as the case may be, of such Loan Party, (ii) contravene any statutory or regulatory legal requirement to which such Loan Party is subject or (iii) result in any breach of, or result in the creation of any Lien in respect of any property of, such Loan Party pursuant to any contract or agreement to which such Loan Party is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound or under or pursuant to which it owns, maintains or operates any of its properties or conducts business.

	5.		No consent, approval, authorization or order of any Governmental Authority or, to my knowledge, any other Person is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by any Loan Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, other than any such consent, approval, authorization or order, if any, that has been received prior to the date hereof.

	6.		All of the outstanding capital stock of each Corporate Guarantor, outstanding partnership interests of each Partnership Guarantor and outstanding membership interests of each LLC Guarantor has been validly issued, is fully paid and nonassessable. All such capital stock, partnership interests and limited liability company interests, to the extent owned by the Company or any Subsidiary, are owned by the Company or such Subsidiary, free and clear of any Lien, except for (a) directors’ qualifying shares or partnership or limited liability company interests (if any) and (b) 9.9% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of RATI Holding, Inc.

	7.		Except for litigation disclosed in the Company’s public filings with the SEC, there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending, or to my knowledge after due inquiry, threatened against the Company or any Guarantor in any court or before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any Governmental Authority which, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

The opinions expressed above are subject to the following qualifications, limitations and assumptions:

	a)		The enforceability opinion expressed in paragraph 3 above is subject to the effects of (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) the application of the principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in proceedings at law or in equity) and (iii) applicable laws and court decisions that may limit the enforceability of certain remedial and other provisions of the Guaranty and the Subrogation and Contribution Agreement, but such laws and decisions should not, in my opinion, materially diminish the ultimate practical realization of the principal legal benefits intended to be provided thereby, except for the economic consequences of any delay which may result therefrom.

	b)		I am not licensed to practice law in any jurisdiction other than the State of Texas and do not purport to be an expert with respect to any laws other than (i) the laws of the State of

Exhibit 4.4(b)-3

Texas, (ii) the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, (iii) the Delaware Revised Limited Partnership Act and (iv) the laws of the United States of America applicable to the businesses of the respective Loan Parties (collectively, the “Primary Laws”). To the extent that the opinions contained herein cover the laws other than the Primary Laws (the “Secondary Laws”), you are advised that my familiarity with the Secondary Laws is limited because I am not licensed to practice, and do not practice, law in jurisdictions in respect of which the Secondary Laws are applicable and I do not purport to be an expert with respect to the Secondary Laws. Accordingly, my opinions with respect to the Secondary Laws are necessarily more limited than a typical legal opinion as to such matters and my opinions with respect thereto should be viewed as conclusions derived by me based solely on my limited familiarity with the Secondary Laws by reason of my capacity as General Counsel of the Company, which owns the Guarantors, and general principles of corporate, partnership or limited liability company law. I am not a member of the State Bar of Delaware, and my knowledge of its corporation, partnership and limited liability company law is derived solely from a reading of the General Corporation Law of Delaware, the Delaware Revised Limited Partnership Act and the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act.

	c)		I note that the Guaranty and the Subrogation and Contribution Agreement provide that they are to be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York. I express no opinion regarding the laws of the State of New York. In expressing my opinion in paragraph 3 and 4(ii) as to the validity, binding effect and enforceability of the Guaranty and the Subrogation and Contribution Agreement, I have assumed that the Guaranty and the Subrogation and Contribution Agreement provide that they are to be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Texas rather than the internal laws of the State of New York.

	d)		The provisions of the Guaranty and the Subrogation and Contribution Agreement which permit the Purchasers or any other holders of Notes to take action or make determinations, or to benefit from indemnities and similar undertakings of the Loan Parties, may be subject to a requirement that such action be taken or such determination be made, and that any action or inaction by the Purchasers or such holders that may give rise to a request for payment under such undertaking be taken or not taken, on a reasonable basis and in good faith.

	e)		To the extent that the obligations of the Guarantors under the Guaranty and the Subrogation and Contribution Agreement may be dependent upon such matters, I have assumed for purposes of this opinion, without independent investigation, that each of the Purchasers is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized, that the Note Purchase Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Purchasers and is enforceable against the Purchasers in accordance with its terms, and that each of the Purchasers has the requisite power and authority to perform its obligations under the Note Purchase Agreement. I

Exhibit 4.4(b)-4

express no opinion as to the compliance by the Purchasers with any state or federal laws or regulations applicable to the transactions contemplated by the Guaranty and the Subrogation and Contribution Agreement because of the nature of its business or facts relating specifically to the Purchasers or as to the effect of any such noncompliance on the opinions set forth above, and I have assumed that each of the Purchasers has obtained and maintains all consents and approvals, and has taken all action that might be required by reason of its involvement in this transaction based upon its legal or regulatory status or other factors relating specifically to it.

	f)		The opinions expressed in paragraphs 1 and 2 with respect to existence and good standing of certain of the Corporate Guarantors and the due qualification of the Loan Parties are expressed as of the date on which applicable certificates were issued by authorities of the jurisdictions covered, and I have assumed that the certificates so issued evidence, as the case may be, the valid existence, due qualification or good standing of the entities covered thereby.

	g)		This opinion is rendered based upon existing Primary and Secondary Laws, and it is not intended to speak with reference to standards hereinafter adopted or evolved in subsequent judicial decisions. Additionally, I assume no obligation to update or supplement this opinion to reflect any facts or circumstances that may hereafter come to my attention or any changes in law that may hereafter occur.

	h)		Insofar as the enforceability opinion in paragraph 3 may be affected by such matters, I express no opinion as to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any provision of the Note Purchase Agreement.

	i)		I express no opinion as to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any provision of the Loan Documents relating to indemnification, contribution, or exculpation in connection with violations of any securities laws or statutory duties or public policy, to the extent that such provisions are determined to be contrary to public policy, as interpreted by the courts of the State of Texas and the courts of the United States.

	j)		To the extent that the enforceability of the Loan Documents may be adversely affected by the usury laws of the State of Texas, in rendering the opinions expressed in paragraphs 3 and 4(ii) above (insofar as such clauses relate to compliance with laws, statutes, rules and regulations of the State of Texas) above, these opinions, insofar as they involve the issue of usury, are expressly limited to an analysis of whether the Loan Documents, as written, will be subject to a defense, claim or setoff as a result of the Purchasers contracting for a usurious rate of interest. The opinions given herein as to usury are expressly limited to the issues relating to the contracting for, as opposed to the charging or receiving of, usurious amounts of interest. To the extent that the enforceability of the Loan Documents may be adversely affected by the usury laws of the State of Texas, and to the extent that the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents may otherwise involve an analysis of compliance with such laws, in rendering my opinions in paragraphs 3 and 4 above, I have assumed:

Exhibit 4.4(b)-5

	i.		that under applicable usury laws of the State of Texas, any fees expressly provided for in the Loan Documents and all charges for reimbursement of the actual, just and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses that the Purchasers incur in documenting the extension of loans and credit contemplated by the Loan Documents and all fees payable to parties not affiliated with the Purchasers for services such parties have actually rendered in connection with the extensions of loans and credit contemplated by the Loan Documents would not constitute interest on or in connection with the extension of such loans or credit; or, if held to constitute interest, that such fees and charges would be considered, together with other amounts contracted for, or to be charged or collected by the Purchasers for the use, forbearance or detention of the extensions of loans and credit contemplated by the Loan Documents, to be effectively limited by the provisions of the Loan Documents limiting the interest contracted for or to be charged or collected by the Purchasers on or in connection with the loans contemplated by the Loan Documents to amounts that do not exceed the maximum rate or amount of interest that may lawfully be contracted for, charged or collected thereon or in connection therewith under applicable law,

	ii.		that the Purchasers duly observe the provisions of the Loan Documents limiting the interest contracted for or to be charged or collected by the Purchasers on or in connection with the extension of loans and credit contemplated by the Loan Documents, to amounts which do not exceed the maximum rate or amount of interest which may lawfully be contracted for, charged or collected thereon or in connection therewith under applicable law,

	iii.		that there exist no agreements or documents that provide for the payment to the Purchasers of amounts deemed to be interest under applicable law except as specifically provided in the Loan Documents,

	iv.		that any acceleration of the maturity of any extension of loans or credit contemplated by the Loan Documents will not include the right to accelerate any amounts deemed interest under applicable law that have not otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration.

To the extent that the enforceability of the Loan Documents may be adversely affected by the usury laws of the State of Texas, in rendering my opinions in paragraphs 3 and 4 above, I have relied upon the reported decisions of several lower Texas courts to the effect that a contract requiring the payment of interest on matured, unpaid installments of interest is not usurious. The status of judicial interpretations of Texas usury laws is not yet settled in this regard; therefore, no absolute opinion is rendered. In the event that the Purchasers actually demand, charge or collect any amounts in excess of those permitted by any applicable usury laws of the State of Texas, I express no opinion as to the effectiveness or enforceability of any provision of the Loan Documents that purports to permit the Purchasers to cure such violation by the rescission of such demand or charge, the refund of excess amounts collected, or otherwise, and I express no opinion on the

(2) certificates of public officials and of certain officers of the Company delivered in connection with the Closing and the Offeree Letter (defined below);

Exhibit 4.4(c)-2

(j) the opinion of J. Curtis Linscott, General Counsel to the Company and the Guarantors, dated the date hereof and delivered to the Purchasers pursuant to Section 4.4(b) of the Note Purchase Agreement.

The documents referenced in clause (a) through clause (d), inclusive, above are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Transaction Documents.”

This opinion is based entirely on our review of the documents listed in the preceding paragraph and we have made no other documentary review or investigation for purposes of this opinion.

Based on such investigation as we have deemed appropriate the opinions referred to in clause (i) and clause (j) above are satisfactory in form and scope to us, and in our opinion you are justified in relying thereon.

We have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the conformity to the originals of all documents reviewed by us as copies, the authenticity and completeness of all original documents reviewed by us in original or copy form, the legal competence of each individual executing any document, and that the Company and each Guarantor, and each other Person executing such documents (including, without limitation, the Transaction Documents) validly exists and is in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it was organized, had and has the power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents under its governing organizational documents, applicable enterprise legislation and other applicable law, and is qualified to do business and is in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where such qualification is required generally or necessary in order for such party to enforce its rights under such documents. We have further assumed that such documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each Person executing such documents and, as to Persons other than the Company and the Guarantors, are binding upon and enforceable against such Persons. In addition, we have relied, to the extent we deem necessary and proper, on the Offeree Letter without independent investigation.

For purposes of this opinion, we have made such examination of law as we have deemed necessary. Except to the extent addressed below in paragraph 5, this opinion is limited solely to the internal substantive laws of the State of New York as applied by courts located in the State of New York without regard to choice of law, and the federal laws of the United States of America (except for federal and state tax, energy, utilities, national security or antitrust laws, as to which we express no opinion), and we express no opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction. Our opinion in paragraph 2 below is based solely on a review of the Company Governing Documents and we have not made any analysis of the internal substantive law of the jurisdiction of organization of the Company, including statutes, rules or regulations or any interpretations thereof by any court, administrative body, or other government authority, and we express no opinion in paragraph 2 below as to the internal substantive law of the Company’s jurisdiction of organization. We note that the Transaction Documents contain provisions stating that they are to be governed by the laws of the State of New York (each, a “Chosen-Law Provision”). Except to the extent addressed below in paragraph 5, no opinion is given herein as to any Chosen-Law Provision, or otherwise as to the choice of law or internal substantive rules of law that any court

Exhibit 4.4(c)-3

or other tribunal may apply to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Except as set forth in paragraph 4 below, we express no opinions as to any securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction.

Our opinion is further subject to the following exceptions, qualifications and assumptions, all of which we understand to be acceptable to you:

(a) We have assumed without any independent investigation (i) that the execution, delivery and performance by each of the parties thereto of the Transaction Documents do not and will not conflict with, or result in a breach of, the terms, conditions or provisions of, or result in a violation of, or constitute a default or require any consent (other than such consents as have been duly obtained) under, any organizational document other than the Company Governing Documents (including, without limitation, applicable corporate charter documents and bylaws), any order, judgment, arbitration award or stipulation, or any agreement, to which any of such parties is a party or is subject or by which any of the properties or assets of any of such parties is bound, (ii) that the statements regarding delivery and receipt of documents and funds referred to in the Cross Receipt between you and the Company are true and correct, and (iii) that the Transaction Documents are a valid and binding obligation of each party thereto to the extent that laws other than those of the State of New York are relevant thereto (other than the laws of the United States of America, but only to the limited extent the same may be applicable to the Company and relevant to our opinions expressed below).

(b) The enforcement of any obligations of any Person under any Transaction Document or otherwise may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, marshaling or other laws and rules of law affecting the enforcement generally of creditors’ rights and remedies (including such as may deny giving effect to waivers of debtors’ or guarantors’ rights); and we express no opinion as to the status under any fraudulent conveyance laws or fraudulent transfer laws of any of the obligations of any Person under the Transaction Documents or otherwise.

(d) The enforcement of any of the Purchasers’ rights may in all cases be subject to an implied duty of good faith and fair dealing and to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity).

(e) We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any particular provision of any of the Transaction Documents relating to:

(i) waivers of rights to object to jurisdiction or venue, or consents to jurisdiction or venue;

Exhibit 4.4(c)-4

(ii) waivers of rights to (or methods of) service of process, or rights to trial by jury, or other rights or benefits bestowed by operation of law;

(iii) waivers of any applicable defenses, setoffs, recoupments, or counterclaims;

(iv) exculpation or exoneration clauses, clauses relating to rights of indemnity or contribution, and clauses relating to releases or waivers of unmatured claims or rights;

(v) waivers or variations of legal provisions or rights which are not capable of waiver or variation under applicable law; or

(vi) the imposition or collection of interest on overdue interest or providing for a penalty rate of interest or late charges on overdue or defaulted obligations, or the payment of any premium, liquidated damages, or other amount which may be held by any court to be a “penalty” or a “forfeiture”.

(f) We express no opinion as to the effect of suretyship defenses, or defenses in the nature thereof, with respect to the obligations of any guarantor, joint obligor, surety, accommodation party, or other secondary obligor.

(g) Our opinion in paragraph 3 below is based solely on a review of generally applicable laws of the State of New York and the United States of America and not on any search with respect to, or review of, any orders, decrees, judgments or other determinations specifically applicable to the Company.

(h) We express no opinion as to the effect of events occurring, circumstances arising or changes of law becoming effective or occurring, after the date hereof on the matters addressed in this opinion letter, and we assume no responsibility to inform you of additional or changed facts, or changes in law, of which we may become aware.

Based on the foregoing, we are of the following opinions:

1. Each of the Note Purchase Agreement and the Notes constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its respective terms, and the Guaranty constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms.

2. The execution and delivery by the Company of the Note Purchase Agreement and the Notes, the issuance and sale of the Notes by the Company, and the performance by the Company of its obligations under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Notes will not constitute a violation of the Company Governing Documents or any law, statute, rule or regulation of the State of New York.

3. No consents, approvals or authorizations of Governmental Authorities of the State of New York or the United States of America are required in respect of the Company or any

Exhibit 4.4(c)-5

Guarantor under the laws of the United States of America or the State of New York in connection with (a) the execution and delivery by the Company of the Note Purchase Agreement, (b) the execution and delivery by the Company and the Guarantors of the Guaranty, or (c) the offer, issuance, sale and delivery of the Notes by the Company under the circumstances contemplated by the Transaction Documents, on the date hereof.

4. It is not necessary in connection with either (a) the offer and sale of the Notes delivered to you today under the circumstances contemplated by the Transaction Documents or (b) the execution and delivery by the Guarantors of the Guaranty under the circumstances contemplated by the Transaction Documents, to register the offer and sale to you today of the Notes or the Guaranty under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to qualify an indenture in respect of the issuance of the Notes under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.

5. Each Chosen-Law Provision is enforceable in accordance with New York General Obligations Law section 5-1401, as applied by a New York State court or a federal court sitting in New York and applying New York choice of law principles.

This opinion is delivered solely to the Purchasers and for the benefit of the Purchasers in connection with the Note Purchase Agreement and may not be relied upon by the Purchasers for any other purpose or relied upon by any other person or entity (other than future holders of the Notes acquired in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents) for any reason without our prior written consent.
