    Job title

The Company shall employ the Executive and the Executive shall serve the Company as President and Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, EFT EMEA for Euronet Worldwide, Inc ("EWI") or in such other capacity as the Board may reasonably require.
4
    Period of employment
4.1
The Appointment shall commence on the Commencement Date and, unless terminated earlier under clause 14, will continue until terminated by the Company giving to the Executive not less than 24 months' notice or the Executive giving to the Company not less than 90 days' notice, in each case, in writing to expire at any time.
4.2
Notwithstanding clause 4.1 above, the Company reserves the right in its absolute discretion to elect to terminate the Appointment with immediate effect and pay to the Executive a sum in lieu of notice, either as a lump sum or in 24 equal monthly instalments in arrears, equivalent to the fixed salary and the cost of the life insurance benefits under clause 6.3, which the Executive would have been entitled during the notice period set out in clause 4.1 above, or if notice has already been given, during any unexpired period of notice (the “Unexpired Notice Period”). In the event that the Company elects to exercise its right under this clause 4.2, the Company will notify the Executive of that, and the date of such notification shall be considered the Termination Date for all purposes (notwithstanding the fact that any moneys due under this clause 4.2 will be paid by the Company after such Termination Date).
4.3
If, at any time during the Unexpired Notice Period:
(i)
the Executive should commence new employment, provision of any further salary instalments pursuant to sub-clause 4.2 will immediately cease; and/or
(ii)
the Company becomes aware of circumstances which would have given it grounds to summarily terminate the Executive’s employment for gross misconduct had he still been employed:
(A)
provision of any further salary instalments pursuant to sub-clause 4.2 will immediately cease; and
(B)
the Executive agrees to immediately repay to the Company all salary instalments which have already been paid to him pursuant to sub‑clause 4.2, which shall be recoverable by the Company as a debt.

-5-



4.4
The Executive’s previous employment with Group Companies counts as continuous employment with the Appointment, and therefore the Executive’s period of continuous employment commenced on 5 October 2005.
4.5
The Company shall not and no Group Company shall be obliged to provide work to the Executive at any time after notice of termination of the Appointment shall have been given by either party under any of the provisions of this Agreement, or at any time after the Executive has purported to resign in breach of his obligation to provide notice of termination of the Appointment in accordance with clause 4.1 above. The Company may also, in its discretion, take any of the following steps in respect of all or part of an unexpired period of notice, provided that both the Company and the Executive will remain bound by all other express and implied contractual obligations to the other pursuant to this Agreement:
(a)
require the Executive not to contact, whether directly or indirectly, any past, current or prospective suppliers, customers, agents or clients of the Company or any Group Company other than in a purely social capacity;
(b)
require the Executive to comply with such conditions as it may specify in relation to attending at, or remaining away from, the place(s) of business of the Company, the Group Companies or of any of their clients;
(c)
assign the Executive to duties other than his normal duties;
(d)
withdraw any powers or responsibilities vested in, or duties assigned to, the Executive;

require the Executive to resign from any office he may hold in the Company, any Group Company or any other company where the office held is as a representative or nominee of the Company or any Group Company. The Executive hereby irrevocably appoints the Company to be his attorney in the Executive’s name and on the Executive’s behalf to execute and do any such instrument or thing and generally to use the Executive’s name for the purpose of giving the Company or its nominee the full benefit of this clause should the Executive fail to comply with it immediately. The Executive agrees and acknowledges that such power of attorney is given by way of security, to secure the performance of the Executive’s obligations pursuant to this clause. A certificate in writing, signed by any director or the secretary of the Company, that any instrument or act falls within the authority conferred by this Agreement shall be conclusive evidence that such is the case so far as any third party is concerned; and
(g)
appoint another person or persons either to act jointly with the Executive in discharging his duties (whether as an employee or officer of the Company or any Group Company), or to replace the Executive in any office from which he has resigned in accordance with paragraph (f) above; and
(h)
restrict or remove the Executive’s access to the communications or technology systems (or both) of the Company or any Group Company including access to his work email accounts.
4.6
    If the Executive fails to make himself available to work during any period of notice of termination of the Appointment other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or at the request or with the permission of the Board, the Company may deduct one day’s salary for each day of absence during such notice period.
4.7
If during the Appointment the Executive shall be removed from his office as a director of the Company pursuant to any power given to the Board or to the members of the Company by law or by the articles

-6-



of association of the Company, such event will (subject to clause 4.8 below) be deemed not to be a breach of this Agreement, and the job title of the Executive shall be altered appropriately.
4.8
Notwithstanding clause 4.7 above, where the Executive is removed from his office as a director of the Company wholly or partly because he has engaged in any conduct that falls within clause 14.2(b), the Company shall be entitled to terminate the Appointment in accordance with clause 14.2.
4.9
    If the Executive shall cease by reason of his own act or default to be a director of the Company, he shall be deemed to be in breach of a fundamental term of this Agreement.
5

5.2
The Executive’s normal place of work shall initially be the Company’s offices at 6th Floor, Watson House, 55 Baker Street, London W1U 7BU.

5.3
The hours of work of the Executive are not fixed but are such normal working hours of the Company and such additional hours as may be necessary to enable him properly to discharge his duties. The Executive will not be entitled to any additional pay for any overtime worked.

5.5

5.6
    The provisions of Schedule 1 shall apply.

The Company shall pay to the Executive for the proper performance of his duties under this Agreement a fixed salary at the rate of GBP 330,000 per annum less any required deductions for income tax and social security contributions (or such higher rate as the Company may from time to time notify in writing to the Executive). The fixed salary will accrue from day to day and be payable by equal monthly instalments in arrears by no later than the last working day of each month by credit transfer to the bank or building society account nominated by the Executive in writing from time to time.

5.10
    The fixed salary may be reviewed from time to time by the Board. Increases are not automatic but will be at the absolute discretion of the Board. An increase in any year is neither a guarantee nor an indication that an increase will be granted in any subsequent year.
5.11
The Executive authorises the Company to deduct from any remuneration accrued and due to him under the terms of this Agreement (whether or not actually paid during the Appointment and including but not limited to fixed salary, bonus, or expenses, or payment in lieu of notice):

any overpayment of salary or expenses or any other payment made to the Executive by mistake or through any misrepresentation; and
(b)
any debt owed by the Executive to the Company or any Group Company; and

any tax or employee social security contributions due in respect of remuneration or any other monies received or receivable by the Executive from the Company.

6.1
The Executive shall be entitled to the benefits set out in clause 6.2, 6.3 and 6.4 below during the Appointment subject always to the rules of any such scheme from time to time in force and any applicable HM Revenue & Customs limits.

The Company reserves the right to withdraw or amend any of these benefits, or to change the insurance provider (a “Provider”), at any time, and provision of any of these benefits shall not prevent the Company from terminating the Executive’s employment at any time.

the Company’s sole obligation shall be to provide access to such schemes (by making any applicable payments of the relevant insurance premiums to the relevant Provider);
(b)
the Company will not be responsible or liable for providing the Executive or the Executive’s Family with any benefit in the event that a Provider fails or refuses, for whatever reason, to pay, provide or continue to pay or provide any benefit to the Executive or the Executive’s Family; and
(c)
the Company shall have no liability to pay any benefit to the Executive or the Executive’s Family under any scheme unless the Company has received payment of such benefit in respect of the Executive or the Executive’s Family from the relevant Provider.
7
    Pension arrangements
7.1
During the first four years of the Appointment, the Company shall contribute on a monthly basis to either:
(a)
the Executive’s personal pension scheme comprised within the Company-sponsored group personal pension arrangement; or
(b)
at the written request of the Executive to any personal pension scheme previously nominated by the Executive to the Company in writing
at the annual rate of 10% per cent of the fixed salary provided for in clause 5.7, up to a maximum aggregate contribution by the Company during the term of the Appointment of £110,000, or such greater amount as may be determined by the Company from time to time.
7.2
A contracting-out certificate under the Pension Schemes Act 1993 is not in force in respect of the Appointment.
8
    Holiday
8.1
The Executive shall be entitled to 28 days (inclusive of UK public and bank holidays) paid holiday in each complete holiday year worked (and pro rata for part of each holiday year worked) to be taken at such time or times as shall be agreed by the Board. Throughout such holidays, the Executive shall continue to receive his normal fixed salary. He may be entitled to additional payments in respect of holiday as a matter of law but any such entitlement is not contractual and does not form part of this Agreement.
8.2
The holiday year runs from 1 January each year to the following 31 December. No holiday entitlement may be carried forward from one holiday year to the next and no payment will be made in lieu of any such untaken holiday entitlement other than on the termination of the Appointment as provided for in clauses 8.4 and 8.6 below.
8.3
The Company may require the Executive to take all or part of any outstanding holiday entitlement during any period of notice of termination (whether such notice is given by the Company or the

-10-



Executive) and any outstanding holiday entitlement shall be deemed to be taken during any period where the Company has exercised its rights pursuant to clause 4.5 above.
8.4
The Company will:
(a)
subject to clause 8.6 below, make a payment of a day’s pay for each day’s holiday which the Executive has accrued during the holiday year in which termination occurs, but has not taken as at the Termination Date, subject to deductions for income tax and social security contributions; or
(b)
deduct a day’s pay for each day’s holiday which the Executive has taken in excess of his accrued entitlement during the holiday year in which termination occurs, as at the Termination Date, from any remuneration or other payments due to the Executive from the Company.
8.5
For the purposes of clause 8.4 above, a day’s pay is calculated as 1/260 of the Executive’s fixed salary from time to time. The Executive may be entitled to additional payment(s) on termination in respect of holiday as a matter of law but any such entitlement is not contractual and does not form part of this Agreement.
8.6
Where the Appointment is terminated by either the Company pursuant to clause 14.3(a), or by the Executive in breach of clause 4.1, any payment due to the Executive under clause 8.4(a) above shall be limited to the Executive’s accrued but untaken statutory holiday entitlement for the holiday year in which termination occurs. For the avoidance of doubt, any paid holidays which have been taken in the year in which termination occurs, shall reduce such statutory holiday entitlement accordingly.
9
    Confidentiality
9.1
The Executive acknowledges that:
(a)
the Company and every Group Company possess a valuable body of Confidential Information to which he has access in order to carry out his duties effectively;
(b)
his duties during the Appointment include, without limitation, a duty of trust and confidence and a duty to act at all times in the best interests of the Company and the Group Companies; and

(b)
copy or reproduce in any form or by or on any media or device or allow others to copy or reproduce or have access to any Documents containing or referring to Confidential Information (whether expressly marked confidential or not).
9.3
The restrictions in clause 9.2 will not:
(a)
restrict the Executive from disclosing any Confidential Information which the Executive is required to disclose by law or any order of the court or any relevant regulatory body, provided that such disclosure is only to the proper recipient and to the extent required and that the Executive shall have given prior written notice to the Company of the requirement and of

-11-



the information to be disclosed, allowed the Company an opportunity to comment on the requirement and have taken such comments into consideration (where reasonable) before making the disclosure; and
(b)
apply to Confidential Information which is or which comes into the public domain otherwise than as a result of an unauthorised disclosure (whether direct or indirect) by the Executive or any other person who owes the Company or any Group Company an obligation of confidentiality in relation to the information disclosed.
9.4
The Executive undertakes and agrees that:
(a)
he will comply with any Company policy relating to Confidential Information which may be issued from time to time during his employment;

(c)
both during the Appointment and after the Termination Date following a request by the Board he will promptly deliver up to the Company any Confidential Information (including all copies of all Documents and abstracts whether or not lawfully made or obtained) which are in his possession or under his control and shall delete any such Confidential Information from any re-usable medium; and
(d)
both during the Appointment and after the Termination Date, he will do such things and sign such documents at the expense of the Company as shall be reasonably necessary to give effect to this clause and/or to provide evidence that it has been complied with.
9.5
Nothing in this Agreement shall restrict the rights of the Executive to make a Protected Disclosure under the ERA. If the Executive has a particular grievance, concern, disclosure or information of a particularly sensitive nature or has reasonable grounds to believe that the Company has committed a crime, a breach of its legal obligations, a miscarriage of justice, or a breach of health and safety or environmental legislation, the Executive should raise this in the first instance with a non-executive director of the Executive’s choice.
9.6
The Executive agrees that the provisions set out in this clause 9 are without prejudice to any other duties of confidentiality owed to the Company or any Group Company whether express or implied and are to survive the termination of the Appointment.
