Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference is made to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (as the same may be amended, modified or restated in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of the date hereof, by and among Rent-A-Center, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Vintage Rodeo Parent, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“you” or “Parent”), and Vintage Rodeo Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”). This letter agreement is being delivered to Parent to induce the Company to enter into the Merger Agreement. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this letter agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement.

1.       We are pleased to advise you that (a) Vintage Rodeo, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Vintage”), hereby severally and not jointly, commits, conditioned upon (i) the satisfaction, or waiver by Parent, Merger Sub or the Company, as applicable, of the conditions to Parent’s, Merger Sub’s or the Company’s obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Merger Conditions”) and (ii) the substantially concurrent Closing of the Merger in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, to contribute to Parent, at or prior to the Closing in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this letter agreement, directly or indirectly through one or more of its affiliated funds to be designated by it, (i) an aggregate amount up to US$610,000,000 (the “Cash Commitment”) in cash in immediately available funds and (ii) all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Buddy’s Newco, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Buddy’s”) (the “Buddy’s Commitment”, and when used collectively with the Cash Commitment, the “Vintage Commitment”) and (b) B. Riley Financial, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“B. Riley” and together with Vintage, the “Commitment Parties”, and each, a “Commitment Party”) hereby severally, and not jointly, commits, conditioned upon (i) the satisfaction, or waiver by Parent and Merger Sub, of all of the Merger Conditions and (ii) the substantially concurrent Closing of the Merger in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including without limitation, the contribution of all of the issued and outstanding equity interests in Buddy’s to Parent, to contribute to Vintage, at or prior to the Closing, in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this letter agreement, directly or indirectly through one or more of its affiliated funds to be designated by it, an aggregate amount up to US$429,000,000 (the “BR Commitment”, and together with the Vintage Commitment, the “Commitments”, and each, a “Commitment”) in cash in immediately available funds, which will be contributed by Vintage to Parent as a portion of the Cash Commitment. It is understood and agreed that neither Vintage nor B. Riley shall, under any circumstances, be obligated under this letter agreement to (or be obligated to cause any other Person to) contribute to, purchase equity from or otherwise provide funds or assets to Parent or Merger Sub (or any other Person in respect of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement) in an amount in excess of their respective Commitments. The amount of the Commitments may be reduced by Parent in an amount specified by Parent solely to the extent it will be possible, notwithstanding such reduction, for Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof, including (without limitation) the payment of the aggregate Merger Consideration and the payment of the amounts contemplated by Section 2.04, Section 6.04 and Section 6.12 of the Merger Agreement. Parent shall not be permitted to reduce the Commitments if such reduction would adversely impact, or would reasonably be expected to result a failure of, the Debt Financing. The proceeds of the Commitments shall be used by Parent solely to satisfy its and Merger Sub’s obligations under the Merger Agreement. It is hereby agreed that any reduction in the Cash Commitment by Parent in accordance with this letter agreement will reduce the BR Commitment and Vintage Commitment on a pro rata basis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this letter agreement, B. Riley reserves the right, prior to the Closing Date, to place all or a portion of the BR Commitment to other qualifying investors reasonably acceptable to Vintage; provided, however, that only funds actually provided to Vintage on or prior to the Closing Date as equity contributions by such investors shall be treated as contributions made by or on behalf of B. Riley to fulfill the BR Commitment, and B. Riley shall not otherwise be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder.

4.       This letter agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon Parent, Vintage, B. Riley and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Each Commitment Party severally, and not jointly, acknowledges that the Company is an express third party beneficiary hereof, entitled to specifically enforce the several, and not joint, obligations of each Commitment Party, against such Commitment Party, to the full extent hereof in connection with the Company’s exercise of its specific performance rights under Section 9.08 of the Merger Agreement and, in connection therewith, the Company has the right to seek specific performance or equitable relief to cause Parent and Merger Sub to cause, or to directly cause, each Commitment Party to severally, and not jointly, fund, directly or indirectly, its respective Commitment, as, and only to the extent permitted by, this letter agreement, in each case, when all of the conditions to funding such Commitment set forth herein have been satisfied and as otherwise contemplated by the exercise of the Company’s rights under Section 9.08 of the Merger Agreement, and the Company shall have no other rights or remedies hereunder. Each Commitment Party accordingly, subject to Section 9.08 of the Merger Agreement, severally, and not jointly, agrees not to oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief on the basis that the Company has an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity. Each Commitment Party further severally, and not jointly, agrees that the Company shall not be required to post a bond or undertaking in connection with such order or injunction sought in accordance with the Company’s specific performance rights under Section 9.08 of the Merger Agreement or this letter agreement. Each Commitment Party severally, and not jointly, acknowledges and agrees that (a) Parent is delivering a copy of this letter agreement to the Company and that the Company is relying on the several, and not joint, obligations and commitments of the Commitment Parties hereunder in connection with the Company’s decision to enter into and consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (b) the provisions set forth in Section 8.03(c) of the Merger Agreement and the Limited Guarantee (as defined below) (i) are not intended to and do not adequately compensate for the harm that would result from a breach of the Merger Agreement or a breach of such Commitment Party’s several, and not joint, obligations to fund its respective Commitment in accordance with the terms of this letter agreement and (ii) shall not be construed to diminish or otherwise impair in any respect the Company’s right to specific enforcement, to cause Parent and Merger Sub to cause, or to directly cause, such Commitment Party to severally, and not jointly, fund, directly or indirectly, its respective Commitment under this letter agreement, and to cause Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement under Section 9.08 of the Merger Agreement and (c) the right of specific performance under this letter agreement and Section 9.08 of the Merger Agreement are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and without those rights, the Company would not have entered into the Merger Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the remedies available to the Company under Section 9.08 of the Merger Agreement and this letter agreement shall be in addition to any other remedy to which the Company is entitled, and the election to pursue any injunction or specific performance under the Merger Agreement and/or this letter agreement shall not restrict, impair or otherwise limit the Company from, in the alternative, terminating the Merger Agreement and collecting any amounts owed under the Guaranteed Obligations, as applicable; provided, that under no circumstances shall the Company be permitted or entitled to receive both (x) a grant of specific performance under Section 9.08 of the Merger Agreement and/or this letter agreement and (y) payment of the Parent Termination Fee and/or money damages. Except for the rights of the Company set forth in this paragraph, nothing in this letter agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person other than Parent, Merger Sub, Vintage, B. Riley and the Company any rights or remedies under, or by reason of, or any rights to enforce or cause Parent to enforce, the Commitments or any provisions of this letter agreement or to confer upon any Person any rights or remedies against any Person other than Vintage or B. Riley under or by reason of this letter agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, no Person other than Parent or the Company, but in the case of the Company, only on the terms, and subject to the limitations, set forth in this paragraph and Section 9.08 of the Merger Agreement) shall have any right to specifically enforce this letter agreement or to cause Parent to specifically enforce this letter agreement.

5.       Each Commitment Party shall be liable solely in respect of its own respective Commitment on a several, and not joint, basis with each other Commitment Party. None of Vintage, B. Riley, Parent or the Company may assign their respective rights, interests or obligations hereunder to any other Person (except by operation of law) without the prior written consent of the Company (in the case of an assignment by Vintage, B. Riley or Parent) or Vintage and B. Riley (in the case of an assignment by the Company), and any attempted assignment without such required consents shall be null and void and of no force or effect; provided, however, that each Commitment Party reserves the right, prior to or after execution of definitive documentation for the financing transactions contemplated hereby, to assign any portion of its respective Commitment to one or more of its Affiliates or financing sources or other investors, and only upon the actual funding of such assigned portion of the Commitment to Parent (or in the case of the B. Riley Commitment, to Vintage) in accordance with this letter agreement effective upon the Closing. A Commitment Party shall have no further obligation to Parent (or any other person) with respect to such funded assigned portion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Commitment Party severally, and not jointly, acknowledges and agrees that, except to the extent otherwise agreed in writing by the Company, any such assignment shall not relieve such Commitment Party of its obligation to invest the full amount of its respective Commitment. Subject to the foregoing, all of the terms and provisions of this letter agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and the Company and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this paragraph or in the Limited Guarantee, the Company, as the express third party beneficiary hereunder on the terms, and subject to the conditions, set forth in paragraph 4 of this letter agreement, may cause Parent and Merger Sub to, or to directly, cause the Commitments to be funded as, and only to the extent, permitted by the exercise of the Company’s rights under Section 9.08 of the Merger Agreement or on the terms, and subject to the conditions of paragraphs 1 and 3 of this letter agreement.

7.       This letter agreement, the Merger Agreement, the Limited Guarantee and the Buddy’s Contribution Agreement reflect the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall not be contradicted or qualified by any other, and supersedes each other, agreement, oral or written, before the date hereof.
