All the Parties reciprocally acknowledge their legal capacity and representation necessary for the granting of the present Agreement of (i) Purchase of Assets related to MovilCarga Business and (ii) regulation of any other actions and agreements derived from this transmission (referred to hereinafter as the “Agreement”).

RECITALS

Whereas, at present, Buyer’s entire capital stock, fully issued and outstanding, is €3,006, divided into 3,006 shares (“participaciones sociales”), fully subscribed and paid in, numbers 1 to 3,006, both inclusive, with a face value of € 1 per share. At the moment of signing this Agreement, the Sole Partner of Buyer is the Spanish company called EURONET SPANISH HOLDCO, S.L (Euronet Holding). However, once the capital increase of Buyer referred to in Recital II (iii) is formalized as described therein, Seller shall also be shareholder of Buyer with a 20% share of its capital stock.

II.

Whereas, on June 21, 2004, the Seller and the Guarantor, ultimate parent company of the Buyer, signed a Binding Offer establishing the main terms of a transaction consisting of the acquisition by Buyer (referred in the said Binding Offer as “Euronet”) of the 80% of Seller’s MovilCarga Business (as defined below), (hereinafter, the “Transaction”). The Binding Offer was amended on September 15, 2004 for the only purposes (i) to extend its term to October 15, 2004 and (ii) to apply for the necessary relevant formal authorization to be granted by Seller so that Buyer could use the words “Meflur” and “Movilcarga”, among others, as its corporate name (hereinafter, the “Extended Binding Offer”). Afterwards, on October 14, 2004, the Seller and the Guarantor signed a second extension to the Binding Offer (hereinafter, the “Second Extended Binding Offer”) (i) to extend the term of the Binding Offer to November 15, 2004 and (ii) to clarify that it was not necessary any authorization from Seller when applying for the corporate name of Buyer. Therefore, until the signature of this Agreement, the terms of the Binding Offer have remained completely in force.

In the Binding Offer, the Seller and the Guarantor established two possible legal

structures to carry out the Transaction, pending determination of which of them would be finally used. However, after the signing of the Binding Offer, All the Parties have agreed to carry out the Transaction through a new legal structure as follows:

(i)

Buyer has been duly incorporated by means of a public deed granted on October 22, 2004, before the Public Notary of Madrid, ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, under number 4.373 of his records.

(ii)

Buyer will acquire today from Seller an 80% pro indiviso interest in the assets listed in Annex A, which includes all assets necessary to operate the MovilCarga Business (as defined below) on a stand-alone basis (hereinafter, 100% of the assets of the MovilCarga Business shall be referred to as the “Assets”) by means of this Agreement.

For clarification purposes, it is stated that the Assets are not, however, all the assets currently comprised within the Seller´s MovilCarga Business (as defined below), because some of such assets, which are not necessary to operate the MovilCarga Business on a stand-alone basis, such as the accounts receivable, are not being transmitted by Seller to Buyer.

Additionally, the Parties have reached an agreement under the terms established in clause 2.4 regarding the following issues (a) 1,000 new POS machines already received by Seller; (b) deposits related to certain machines listed in Annex A; (b) prepaid amounts made by some retailers; and (d) a leasing agreement in force signed with Banco Guipuzcoano.

(iii)

The same day (on the Closing Date, as defined below) and promptly after the referred sale to be carried out by this Agreement is formalized in a public document, Seller is going to contribute the remaining 20% pro indiviso interest in the Assets to Buyer by means of the corresponding capital increase public deed (hereinafter, the “Capital Increase Public Deed”).

The amount of the capital increase shall be € 1,250, divided into 1,250 shares (“participaciones sociales”), fully subscribed and paid in by the Seller, numbers 5,001 to 6,250, inclusive, with a face value of € 1 per share (with a total premium of € 6,398,750, that is, €5,119 per new share. It is stated that prior to this capital increase, in the same public deed, a previous capital increase (that is not part of this Transaction) by off-set of loans against Buyer, fully subscribed and paid in by Euronet Holding, has been formalized. Therefore, the resulting share capital of the Buyer after the two capital increases referred to above amounts to € 6,250.

It is agreed that, on the same act of the formalization of the Capital Increase Public Deed, Buyer shall pay by nominative bank check of Bank of America to Seller the VAT corresponding to the contribution of the 20% pro indiviso interest in the Assets referred to in this point (iii), that amounts to € 1,024,000.

After said capital increase, Euronet Holding will have 80% of the capital stock in Buyer and Seller will have the remaining 20% of said Buyer’s capital stock.

It is acknowledged by the Parties that they would not agree to the sale formalized under this Agreement if the contribution referred to above was not to be carried out immediately afterwards, because both operations (the sale and the contribution), together with all of the transactions provided for herein, and necessary to implement the Transaction, are part of the same purpose of the Parties in entering into this Agreement: to enter into partnership with the Buyer, because its experience in the same market, its financial and technological means, and its excellent reputation in the market, are expected to boost the MovilCarga Business.

(iv)

Simultaneously with this Agreement and with the Capital Increase Public Deed, Seller also, among other actions,

(a)

is transferring to Buyer the employees that currently work in the MovilCarga Business (as defined below), by carrying out the necessary steps under Spanish Labour Law in force (without prejudice of the requirement to carry out certain further actions for this purpose following the Closing Date (as defined below) either by Seller and/or by Buyer according to Spanish Labour Law). Attached to this Agreement as Annex B is a list of such employees (hereinafter, the “Employees”).

		(d) Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement and the Capital Increase Public Deed, the Seller is signing an agreement for the assignment to Buyer (the Assignment of Contracts Agreement), as an essential part of the


		MovilCarga Business, of all the MovilCarga Contracts, including those agreements which are listed in the annexes to the Assignment of Contracts Agreement.

The Buyer will also cooperate with the Seller, if necessary, in the obtaining of such consents.

		(e) Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement and the Capital Increase Public Deed, Seller will take any necessary steps under Spanish Labor Law for the implementation of the transfer to Buyer, as an essential part of the MovilCarga Business, of the employment contracts with these employees specified in Annex B (and the price stated in clause 3 has been determined taking into account this essential part of the MovilCarga Business).

2.3		Provisions Regarding Working Capital

2.3.1		The Parties intend that the benefit and burdens of the MovilCarga Business be transferred to Buyer on the Closing Date, by means of this Agreement and the Capital Increase Public Deed. Therefore, the Parties agree as follows:

2.3.2		The Parties will determine, as of the Closing Date, the amount of PIN inventory that is held by Seller in connection with the MovilCarga Business. All such inventory shall be sold at cost by Seller to Buyer on the Closing Date, and Seller shall invoice Buyer for the cost thereof. Such invoice shall be included in the settlement performed at the Working Capital Settlement, as defined in clause 2.3.5 below (therefore, the corresponding payment shall be treated in the context of the Working Capital Settlement; – that is to say, it shall be subject to off-set, if any).

2.3.3		All accounts payable, prepaid expenses, receivables relating to products or services that must be performed or delivered by Buyer after the Closing Date, or other items of working capital associated with the MovilCarga Business shall be allocated between


		Seller and Buyer based on whether they are attributable to the period prior to the Closing Date (in which case they shall be attributed to Seller) or after the Closing Date (in which case they shall be attributed to Buyer). Invoices effecting such allocation shall be issued, and such invoices shall be included in the settlement carried out at the Working Capital Settlement.

2.3.4		Seller shall be entitled to receive all revenues associated with the operation of the MovilCarga Business prior to the Closing Date. If Buyer receives any payments from customers or clients of the MovilCarga Business relating to the period before the Closing Date, such payments shall be taking into account when preparing the Working Capital Settlement and, therefore, for the corresponding offseting of amounts, in the terms referred to in clause 2.3.5.

		Buyer shall be entitled to receive all revenues derived from the operation of the MovilCarga Business following the Closing Date. If Seller receives any payments from customers or clients of the MovilCarga Business relating to the period after the Closing Date, such payments shall be taking into account when preparing the Working Capital Settlement and, therefore, for the corresponding offseting of amounts, in the terms referred to in clause 2.3.5.

2.3.5		The Parties shall meet to engage in a verification and settlement of the above amounts within fifteen (15) business days after Closing Date (the “Working Capital Settlement”). At the Working Capital Settlement, the amounts payable by Buyer to Seller and vice versa shall be offset against each other, and the Party owing amounts to the other following such offsets shall make payment of such amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds, within the five (5) following business days.

2.3.6		For clarification purposes, it is stated that the invoicing system agreed by the Parties, in order not to alter the normal invoicing system Seller has been applying up to the Closing Date, is the following:

		Regarding retailers, distributors and wholesalers in relation with which the normal system of invoicing is on a weekly basis (most of them): (a) Seller shall issue the last invoice on November 4, covering the period between October 28 at 00:00 hours to November 3 at 24:00 hours; and (b) Buyer shall issue its first invoice on November 11, covering the period between November 4 at 00:00 hours to November 10 at 24:00 hours.

		Regarding the distributors (Grupo VIPS and Supermercados ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇.▇.) in relation with which the normal system of invoicing is on a monthly basis: (a) Seller shall issue the last invoice on November 4, covering the period between October 1 at 00:00 hours to November 3 at 24:00 hours; and (b) Buyer shall issue its first invoice on December 4, covering the period between November 4 at 00:00 hours to December 3 at 24:00 hours.

		For clarification purposes, the first invoice issued by Buyer mentioned in this clause 2.3.6, (i) and (ii) is the same invoice referred to in clause 8.6 as the First Invoice.

		The Parties state that Telefonica’s charges in relation to the recharge to be made on today’s date, November 3, 2004, to be paid to Telefónica by the Buyer, shall be undertaken by the Seller.


2.3.7		Each Party shall permit the other to audit the amounts provided for in this Section 2.3 at any time before preparing the Working Capital Settlement. In the event of any dispute regarding amounts involved in the Working Capital Settlement, Parties shall try to reach an amicable agreement within the following fifteen (15) business days and, if such agreement is not reached, the Parties together shall be entitled to appoint an independent auditor (from an accounting and auditing firm of international reputation) who will determine the amounts of the Working Capital Settlement, within ten (10) next business days of his/her acceptance as independent auditor. The decision of the independent auditor shall be binding upon the Parties. Both Parties expressly accept that they will obey the independent auditor’s decision. If the Parties do not agree on the appointment of the referred independent auditor, one of the following auditing firms shall be chosen by lot: ERNST & YOUNG, DELOITTE or PRICEWATERHOUSECOOPERS. If the chosen Firm does not accept, a new draw shall be done between the two other Firms. The independent auditor’s fess shall be born equally by each of the Parties. Once the Working Capital Settlement is agreed (or, if applicable, once determined by the auditor) and the corresponding payment is made (according to clause 2.3.5) each Party shall also permit the other to verify whether there is any future invoice that has not been included in the Working Capital Settlement (because of timing reasons). In any event, this verification shall be requested and performed in a reasonable manner and in the less harmful way for both Parties, and within a maximum term of six months after Closing Date.

2.4		Regarding (i) 1,000 new POS machines; (ii) the deposits related to certain machines listed in Annex A, and (iii) the amounts related to prepaids made by certain retailers with POS machines; and (iv) one leasing agreement signed with Banco Guipuzcoano:

2.4.1		1000 New POS Machines

		All the Parties acknowledge that Seller has requested 1,000 new POS machines related to the MovilCarga Business. Such 1,000 new POS machines have been already delivered to Seller; the first 500 on September 2004 and the remaining 500 at the end of October 2004.

		The payment for the first 500 POS machines has been made through a leasing contract with Caja Madrid already signed by Seller. In relation to this leasing contract with Caja Madrid, All the Parties agree that Buyer shall assume Seller’s debtor position (lessee) against Caja Madrid and Seller shall be free of any obligation of payment derived thereof. During the following days from the Closing Date, the necessary actions to obtain the assignment of this leasing contract with Caja Madrid from Seller to Buyer shall be carried out. As the first 500 new POS machines have been already delivered at Seller’s premises and such premises are the Premises, there is no need of any further delivery from Seller to Buyer.

		Regarding the other remaining 500 POS machines related to the MovilCarga Business, although they have already been delivered to Seller, All the Parties have agreed that it


		shall be Buyer (and not Seller) that will directly sign the corresponding leasing contract (with Caja Madrid) for the purposes of making the corresponding payment. As the remaining 500 new POS machines have been already delivered at Seller’s premises and such premises are the Premises, there is no need of any further deliver from Seller to Buyer.

2.4.2		Deposits and Prepaids

		On the other hand, Buyer expressly recognizes that Seller is transferring to it, by means of this Agreement and through the corresponding bank check (copy of which is attached as Annex G to this Agreement), (i) all the amounts corresponding to the deposits that the Seller has received from the different retailers, according to their respective contracts, amounting to euros 296,925.05; and (ii) consequently, the corresponding liability, and therefore, Buyer expressly recognizes that the Seller is not responsible of the returning of any amount to such retailers when they have to return the machines to the owner, and that the Buyer is the new debtor of such amounts. Seller represents and warrants that Annex H is a true and complete list of all retailers from whom any deposits have been received, and that the amount being paid to Buyer under this Section is 100% of all liability for such deposits to retailers. In the event that there are any amount owed by Buyer regarding these deposits that have not been covered by the payment provided in this Section, Seller shall pay the amount immediately upon demand from Buyer, without regard to any limitations or procedures provided in Clause 9.

		Additionally, and in relation to prepaid amounts made by some retailers, also attached to this agreement as Annex H is a list of all of said retailers that have made prepaid amounts to Seller before the Closing Date, as well as the amounts existing at 2 November 2004. Buyer expressly recognizes that, as soon as Buyer receives from the Seller all the amounts corresponding to the prepaid amounts made by some of the retailers (in the terms and conditions stated in the following paragraph), Buyer will undertake the corresponding liability derived from such prepaid amounts and, therefore, once the aforementioned amounts have been received, Buyer shall be the sole party responsible for providing the services covered by such prepaid amounts.

		Both Parties agree that, Seller shall pay to Buyer on 4 November 2004, by wire transfer to the bank account number to be indicated by Buyer, in relation to each retailer, the amount resulting from the difference between the amount stated in Annex H for each retailer and the amount already consumed by the relevant retailer from 28 October, 00:00hours, to 3 November, 24:00hours (hereinafter, the aggregate amount of such differences, shall be referred to as “Prepaid Total Amount”). Once the Buyer has received the Prepaid Total Amount, Buyer will undertake the corresponding liability of providing the services covered by the Prepaid Total Amount, releasing the Seller of any liability towards the retailers on this regard.

		Also for clarification purposes, it is stated that, except for the provisions established in clause 2.4.1 and in this clause 2.4.2, Seller shall not transfer to Buyer, and Buyer shall not be liable for, any account or other liabilities related to MovilCarga Business before the Closing Date; therefore, Seller shall remain responsible of them (that is to say, of the account and other liabilities existing before the Closing Date).


2.4.3		Leasing Agreement signed with Banco Guipuzcoano
		There is a leasing agreement (the Leasing Agreement) in force regarding certain machines signed with Banco Guipuzcoano (it is attached as Annex C of the Assignment of Contracts Agreement). Notwithstanding this, Seller shall assign its contractual position in this contract to Buyer (subject to the corresponding consent from said bank) in the terms explained in point iv).b).1.ii) of Recital II. Seller shall obtain the bank’s consent to the referred subrogation. In any case, Seller commits itself to continue paying, under the terms established in the referred Leasing Agreement, the remaining amounts owed until the end of the leasing of the abovementioned Leasing Agreement. For clarification purposes, the Parties agree that Buyer acquires all rights derived from the Leasing Agreement with Banco Guipuzcoano, and Seller remains as the sole responsible Party towards said bank for the obligation of payment of the remaining amounts owed until the end of the leasing derived from the Leasing Agreement.

2.5		Seller shall pay any outstanding Taxes related to MovilCarga Business that are accrued prior to the Closing Date, without prejudice to clause 12.2.

CLAUSE 3. PURCHASE PRICE

In consideration of the transfer of 80% of Seller’s MovilCarga Business in the terms herein explained to the Buyer, the aggregate purchase price to be paid by the Buyer (the “Purchase Price”), will be comprised of an initial price (the “Initial Price”) plus, should the circumstances set forth below be met, a deferred and conditional price (the “Deferred and Conditional Price”), plus the VAT corresponding to the Purchase Price, which, according to the applicable Tax Regulations in force, is 16% (the “Transaction VAT”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that the Purchase Price is being paid for the Assets but taking also in consideration the performance by the Seller (together with Buyer, when necessary) of all of the related actions described in Clause 2.2


3.1		Initial Price

		The Initial Price is fixed at an aggregate amount of EIGHT MILLION EUROS (€8,000,000). The Initial Price, together with the VAT corresponding to the Base Price (the Transaction Initial VAT), that is to say, FOUR MILLION NINETY-SIX THOUSAND EUROS € 4,096,000, is paid in cash by two certified selfpay bank checks of the Bank of America for the corresponding amounts as of the time of execution of this Agreement. A photocopy of said check/s is attached to this Agreement as Annex I.

		As of the time of execution of this Agreement, Seller delivers to Buyer the corresponding invoice.


		Buyer shall perform all actions necessary (rectifications of the incorporation public deed, submission of further documentation requested by the Mercantile Registry of Madrid, etc.) in order to obtain as soon as possible the registration of Buyer with the Mercantil Registry of Madrid. If, however, Buyer is not duly registered with said Mercantile Registry within four (4) months from the Closing Date, Buyer (i) shall have to fully indemnify Seller of all the damages derived of this situation for Seller and (ii) shall take the necessary actions so that any other Spanish company (either existing or newly created) of Guarantor’s group substitutes Buyer so that the Transaction can be executed in the terms of this Agreement.

3.2		Deferred and Conditional Price

3.2.1		General Conditions

		The Deferred and Conditional Price shall be divided into two (2) parts, as follows:

3.2.1.1		Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price

		Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price will be TEN MILLION EUROS (€10,000,000) subject to adjustment as provided in clauses 3.2.3 to 3.2.5 of this Agreement, and will be paid in cash or by wire transfer of immediately available funds according to the following procedure:

		(i) Buyer shall be obliged to communicate in writing to Seller within ten (10) business days following the end of any month referred to in clauses 3.2.3 to 3.2.5, the amount of the Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price it considers must be paid to Seller (according to the rules of calculation referred below). During the following ten (10) days, Seller shall be entitled to verify the amount communicated by Buyer.

		(ii) If Seller fully agrees with Buyer, Buyer shall have to pay Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price to Seller within the ten (10) business days following the reception of Seller’s communication. If Buyer does not pay to Seller in the referred term, clause 3.2.7 shall be applicable. If Seller disputes and does not agree with the amount notified by Buyer (because Seller considers the amount should be higher than the one Buyer has notified), then Seller may require Buyer to pay the undisputed amount. In which case, the undisputed amount shall be paid within the ten (10) business days following the reception of Seller’s request. If Buyer does not pay to Seller in the referred term, clause 3.2.7 shall be applicable. The disputed amount shall be subject to the independent expert’s decision as stated below.

		(iii) If Seller does not agree, or partially agrees, with Buyer or it only partially agrees (as indicated in point ii) above), the Parties shall, within the five (5) following business days, mutually agree upon and appoint an independent


		expert. Such expert shall be instructed to resolve the disagreement as soon as possible, but in any event within 30 days of his/her acceptance as independent expert. The decision of the expert shall be binding upon the Parties. Both parties expressly accept that they will obey the independent expert’s decision. If the Parties do not agree on the appointment of the referred independent expert, one of the following auditing firms shall be chosen by lot: Ernst & Young, Deloitte or PriceWaterhouseCoopers. If the chosen firm does not accept, a new draw shall be carried out between the two other firms. The independent expert’s fees shall be born equally by each of the Parties. The payment by Buyer to Seller shall be made within the five (5) following business days to the date the independent expert’s decision is notified to Buyer. If Buyer does not pay to Seller in the referred term, clause 3.2.7 shall be applicable.

		The date Buyer pays to Seller Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price, shall be referred as the “Part A Payment Date”.

	3.2.1.2	Part B of the Deferred and Conditional Price (the “Earn Out Payment”)

		Part B of the Deferred and Conditional Price will be an amount of SEVEN MILLION SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND EUROS (€7,600,000; hereinafter, the “Earn Out Payment Standard”), subject to the conditions and adjustments provided for in this Agreement. Procedures for calculation and payment of the Earn Out Payment are provided in clause 3.3 of this Agreement.
*Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price*

3.2.2	General Condition

	The obligation of Buyer to pay Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price will be subject to the condition that the December 2004 Revenues shall be at least equal to the 90% of the June 2004 Revenues.

3.2.3	Fulfillment of Essential Condition

	If the condition set forth in clause 3.2.2 is met, then the amount of Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price payable shall be TEN MILLION EUROS (€10,000,000), provided that if the December 2004 Revenues are less than the June 2004 Revenues, then there shall be a reduction of the amount payable equal to the difference between € 18,000,000 and the amount resulting from the following formula: €18,000,000 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the December 2004 Revenues and denominator of which is the amount of the June 2004 Revenues.

	As an example: if December 2004 Revenues were 90 and June 2004 Revenues were 100, the reduction would be € 1,800,000 and therefore, Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price would be € 8,200,000 (90/100= 0.9; € 18,000,000* 0.9= € 16,200,000;


		€ 18,000,000-€ 16,200,000= € 1,800,000). The Parties shall determine the amount payable under this clause 3.2.3 and Buyer shall pay to Seller the amount determined according to the terms and procedure provided in clause 3.2.1.1. In case December 2004 Revenues were equal or higher than June 2004 Revenues, the Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price will be €10,000,000 (that is, under no circumstances, Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price will be higher than €10,000,000).

3.2.4		Non-fulfillment of the Essential Condition

		If the condition set forth in clause 3.2.2 is not met, the payment of Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price will be postponed until such condition is met, with a maximum period of six months. For clarification purposes, such condition will be tested on a monthly basis for each calendar month up to the month of June 2005 (hereinafter, “Part A Cut Off Date”): if the condition set forth in clause 3.2.2 is not met regarding December 2004 Revenues, the amount of revenues, calculated as described for December 2004 Revenues, shall be determined in January 2005 and (i) if such condition is met, Buyer shall pay Seller Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price (with the corresponding reduction, if any, in accordance with clause 3.2.3) on the date resulting from the procedure provided in clause 3.2.1.1; (ii) if such condition is not met in January, February 2005 Revenues shall be considered; and so on (until June 2005, inclusive). If the condition set forth in clause 3.2.2 is not met by June 2005 Revenues, the Seller shall have no right to any amount of Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price.

		The same principles established in clause 3.2.3 for the calculation of the amount of Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price shall be applicable when this clause 3.2.4 is applicable. For clarification purposes, if January 2005 Revenues amounted to 95, the reduction would be € 900,000 and therefore, Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price would be € 9,100,000 (95/100= 0.95; € 18,000,000*0.95= € 17,100,000; € 18,000,000-€ 17,100,000= € 900,000).

3.2.5		Adjustment

		Without prejudice of the provisions stated in clauses 3.2.3 and 3.2.4 above, if the amount received by Seller according to the provisions stated in clauses 3.2.3 and/or 3.2.4, is less than € 10,000,000, but the condition set forth in clause 3.2.2 is met, the Revenues for each month following the month in which such condition is met shall be considered, and an additional amount of Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price shall be paid, up to June 2005, inclusive, under the following terms (hereinafter, the “Adjustment”): (i) If the Revenues of any of such additional months are at least equal to 100% of June 2004 Revenues, Buyer shall have to pay to Seller an amount equal to the difference between €10,000,000 and the amount already paid to Seller; (ii) If the condition stated in point (i) is not met, but the Revenues of any of such additional months are higher than the Revenues of the month with respect to which a payment was made (although they are not equal to 100% of June 2004 Revenues), the month whose Revenues are the highest (hereinafter, each of them, an “Incremental Revenue Month”)


		shall be also considered and Buyer shall have to pay to Seller an amount equal to the difference between the amount corresponding to the Revenues of the Incremental Revenue Month and the amount already paid to Seller. In order to know which is the Incremental Revenue Month (only applicable to case ii) above) both Parties shall have to wait until June 2005. In both cases, (i) and (ii), Buyer shall pay to Seller the amount determined according to the terms and procedure provided in clause 3.2.1.1.

3.2.6		Criteria for Invoicing

		In relation to the provisions stated in clauses 3.2.2 to 3.2.5, All the Parties agree that the invoicing of the months taken into account (indistinctly, December 2004, or, subsidiarily, according to the provisions above, the following months until June 2005) for the comparison of the Revenues (according to the referred clauses) shall follow the invoicing practices Seller has been normally using in the MovilCarga Business prior to this Agreement, providing they are in accordance with Spanish GAAP. In this regard, there shall not be modifications when issuing the corresponding invoices that intend to advance or to postpone any invoicing to a previous or later month. In any event, a representative of Seller, whose name shall be duly indicated to Buyer in advance, shall be entitled to check daily the invoicing system, to ask for and review all the necessary documents for such review and to verify the payments received from the invoicing made. If such representative deems that there is any issue that, under his/her point of view, is not correct or needs to be corrected or modified in any manner, he/she shall be entitled to (i) propose a solution to such issue and/or (ii) if necessary, to convene the Parties to a meeting to resolve on it.

3.2.7		Default in Payment

		If Buyer fails to make payment of the amount required to be paid to it under Sections 3.2.3 to 3.2.5, then Seller may give Buyer a payment default notice, specifically referring to this clause 3.2.7. If Buyer fails to make payment of the amount required under clause 3.2.7 for more than five (5) business days following the receipt by Buyer of Seller’s payment default notice, then Seller may, at its discretion,

		(i) regarding payment of clauses 3.2.3 and 3.2.4, (a) terminate the sale to Buyer of the Assets formalized under this Agreement, as well as the contribution described in Whereas II, point (iii); recover the ownership of the Assets and the transfer of the Employees; obtain the back assignment of the Contracts, and, in general, to restore to the situation existing before the execution of this Transaction, by applying the corresponding applicable system in force according to Spanish regulations; or (b) to exercise the pledge referred to in clause 4.3; and additionally and without prejudice to the choice between points a) and b) to be made by Seller, the Seller shall be entitled in case (a) to retain as a penalty the Initial Price. Only in the event that the Spanish Tax Authorities returned the VAT The VAT that should be returned to the Buyer, is to be paid by the Seller to the Buyer within ten (10) days following the date where the Seller receives the return of such amount or has offset with VAT to


		be paid, but, in noevent, later that 12 months from termination. In case (b), as the Transaction is not terminated, Seller shall not return Buyer any VAT amount, and additionally, Seller shall be entitled to receive an amount of 1,000,000 as a penalty. Once the Buyer has made the payment corresponding to the undisputed amount (in accordance with section 3.2.1.1) the aforementioned Seller’s option to terminate shall not apply, but the pledge referred to in clause 4.3 shall apply.

(ii)		regarding payment of the Adjustment in accordance with clause 3.2.5, Seller may exercise the pledge referred to in clause 4.3.

		The provisions established in points (i) and (ii) of this clause 3.2.7, shall be applicable without prejudice of Seller right to claim against the Guarantor, in the terms of clause 4 below.
*Part B of Deferred and Conditional Payment*

3.3		Earn Out Payment Procedure and Calculation

3.3.1		General Considerations

		The Earn Out Payment will be made by Buyer (or, if applicable, by Guarantor, without prejudice of provisions of clause 4) to Seller on or before the 45^th day following the second anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Second Anniversary”), provided that the Parties have agreed on the amount of the Year 2 EBITDA within 30 days of Second Anniversary as provided in this Clause 3.3.1. If the Parties have not so agreed, the Earn Out Payment shall be delayed by the period of time required to reach an agreement, provided that if the Parties are unable to agree within 45 days of the Second Anniversary, then the provisions of clause 3.3.3 shall apply. Within 20 days after the Second Anniversary, Buyer will prepare and deliver to Seller a calculation of the Year 2 EBITDA. Seller will examine such calculation and will, before the 30^th day following the Second Anniversary, provide Buyer with a written statement either agreeing or disagreeing with such calculation, and providing the reasons for any disagreement. Both Parties shall have to take into account the Earn Out Protection Principles established in clause 3.4. If Seller agrees, Buyer shall have to pay the Earn Out Payment within the five (5) business following days from the reception of the written statement. The date on which the Earn Out Payment is required to be made under this paragraph shall be referred to as the “Earn Out Payment Date” (that is to say, on the 45^th day from the Second Anniversary of the Closing Date, or before such date, if the referred agreement has been reached; or, if the referred agreement is not reached, the date such agreement is finally reached according to clause 3.3.3)

3.3.2		Formula for Earn Out Payment

		The amount of the Earn Out Payment shall be calculated by applying the formula set forth in this clause 3.3.2 (the “Earn Out Payment Formula”). The amount of the Earn Out Payment will be a function of the Year 2 EBITDA, as follows:

		(i) If Year 2 EBITDA is less than €5.5 million, the Earn Out Payment Standard will be reduced by an amount equal to 80% of six times the difference


		between Year 2 EBITDA and €5.5 million. As an example, if Year 2 EBITDA is equal to €4.5 million, the Earn Out Payment would be reduced by €4.8 million (80% * 6 * 1 million) and would be equal to €2.8 million.

		(ii) If Year 2 EBITDA is over €7 million, the Earn Out Payment will be equal to €7.6 million (Earn Out Payment Standard), plus a bonus amount equal to 80% of six times the excess of Year 2 EBITDA over €7 million, up to a maximum payment of 30% of the Base Price. As an example, if Year 2 EBITDA is equal to € 8 million, the Earn Out Payment would be €7.6 million plus € 4.8 million (80%* 6* 1 million). Thus, the Earn Out Payment will be €12.4 million. For clarification, the bonus cap is 30% of the Base Price, i.e., €7.68 million (25.6 *0.3). Therefore, where the limit of the 30% of the Base Price is applicable, the Earn Out Payment will not exceed €15.28 million (€7.6 million plus €7.68 million).

		(iii) If Year 2 EBITDA is between €5.5 million and €7 million, then the Earn Out Payment will be €7.6 million (Earn Out Payment Standard).

		(iv) The limit of the 30% of the Base Price shall not be applicable if the increase of the Year 2 EBITDA over €7 million is due to or a consequence of an “external increase.” To this effect, an “external increase” shall be deemed as having occurred only when the two (2) following conditions are met: (a) the increase, either regarding EBITDA of Buyer or regarding the EBITDA of the MovilCarga Business, derives from new products or services different from those related to the MovilCarga Business (as currently it is or as it may become in the future due to its normal or natural development) and from those being developed by any of Buyer’s Affiliates; and (b) the increase, either regarding EBITDA of Buyer or regarding the EBITDA of MovilCarga Business, derives from new products or services which have been created or caused, in any manner (and transferred to the Buyer) by the Seller, by any company of Seller’s Group, or by ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇ or any other person belonging to Seller’s Group.

		(v) Regarding any other new products or services (except for the ▇▇▇▇-bus product referred to below) different from those related to the MovilCarga Business (as currently it is or as it may become in the future due to its normal or natural development) that are commercially launched in the market after the First Anniversary of the Closing Date, Seller shall be entitled to receive from Buyer a “bonus” equal to 80% of six (6) times the EBITDA corresponding to the first calendar year since each of these new products or services is commercialized, one year after of their respective commercialization in the market (this payment is an additional payment to the general Earn Out Payment regarding the MovilCarga Business). The terms of this additional bonus are as follows:


		a. The calculation of EBITDA for purposes of the bonus will be equal to three times the amount of EBITDA realized in the third (last quarter) of the 12-month measurement period. EBITDA for this purpose will take into account all expenses of the new product, plus an allocation for investment that has been made or reasonably anticipated to be made for the development of the product.

		b. The same terms and conditions as those used for the calculation of the Earn Out Payment for the MovilCarga Business (except the limit of 30% of the Base Price) shall apply in calculating the bonus. In the event of disagreement on the amount to be paid, rules provided in Section 3.3.3.(ii) regarding the independent expert shall apply. For all this purpose, Buyer commits to prepare separate accounts for the new product or service.

		c. If the amount of EBITDA earned from the MovilCarga Business is less than Euro 8.6 million, then the EBITDA for the new product shall be reduced by the shortfall, and the bonus shall only be calculated on the remainder, if any.

		d. The payment of this separate EBITDA of the other new products or services shall be made by Buyer to Seller within the five (5) business days after their agreement on the amount. In the event of disagreement, rules provided in Section 3.3.3.(ii) regarding the independent expert shall apply.

		(vi) Regarding the potential “▇▇▇▇-bus” business that the Seller intends to develop, the Seller accepts that its development will be carried out through the Buyer. The Parties agree that, in consideration to the transfer of the ▇▇▇▇-bus business to the Buyer, the Earn out payment formula shall be also applicable to the ▇▇▇▇-bus line of business. For purposes of the following, the term “▇▇▇▇-bus EBITDA” means revenues from the ▇▇▇▇-bus business, less a notional amount for direct and SG&A expenses that is equal to the same percentage of ▇▇▇▇-bus revenues, as the percentage of the total expenses of the Buyer for the quarter before any measurement date to overall revenues of the Buyer for that quarter. The Earn out payment formula will apply as follows if the ▇▇▇▇-bus business is developed by Buyer:

		(a) If Year 2 EBITDA exclusive of the ▇▇▇▇-bus EBITDA is less than Euro 8.6 million, then ▇▇▇▇-bus EBITDA will be added to Year 2 EBITDA, and the Earn Out Payment Formula will be applied without reference to the 30% limit indicated in paragraph (d) above.

		(b) If Year 2 EBTIDA exclusive of the ▇▇▇▇-bus EBITDA is equal to or greater than Euro 8.6 million, then (i) the Earn Out Payment Formula will be applied to Year 2 EBITDA without adding ▇▇▇▇-bus EBITDA to Year 2 EBITDA, with the 30% limit, and (ii) the Earn Out Payment Formula will be applied to ▇▇▇▇-bus EBITDA and Buyer will make an additional payment to Seller of the amount derived from the application of that formula to such EBITDA.


		(c) The provisions of Section (v) above will apply mutatis mutandis to the ▇▇▇▇-bus business if it is launched less than 12 months before the Earn Out Payment Date.

		(d) In relation to all the above, Buyer commits to prepare separate accounts for the new ▇▇▇▇-bus product.

		If the Purchase Price as ultimately determined is different from the Base Price (either higher or lower), the amount of VAT shall be accordingly adjusted, and Buyer and Seller shall make any necessary payments or refunds, as the case may be, to the other Party so that the amount finally paid by Buyer to Seller as VAT is equal to 16% of the amount finally paid by Buyer to Seller under this Agreement.

3.3.3		Disagreement among Parties

		If the Parties do not reach agreement concerning the amount of Year 2 EBITDA within 45 days after the Second Anniversary, then the following shall apply:

		(i) if both Parties’ figures for Year 2 EBITDA are between €5.5 million and €7 million, the disagreement shall not affect the Earn Out Payment, which shall be €7.6 million (Earn Out Payment Standard). In this case, the Earn Out Payment shall be made within the required period of 45 days from the Second Anniversary (that is to say, and for clarification purposes, on or before such 45th day Buyer shall pay to Seller 50% of €7.6 million in cash and 50% in Euronet Shares (as defined below), as valued as determined below, unless Buyer elects to pay all of the Earn Out Payment in cash. The amounts concerned shall be paid to Seller according to Section 6;

		(ii) if either Party or both Parties determine that Year 2 EBITDA is less than €5.5 million or more than €7 million, then Buyer shall pay to Seller, within the term indicated in clause 3.3.1 (on or before the 45^th day), at least, the amount of the Earn Out Payment as calculated by Buyer, and the Parties shall, within 10 days following the expiration of such 45-day period, mutually agree upon and appoint an independent expert. Such expert shall be instructed to resolve the disagreement within 20 days following his/her acceptance as independent expert. The decision of the expert shall be binding upon the Parties. Both Parties expressly accept that they will obey the independent expert’s decision. The independent expert’s fees shall be borne equally by the Parties. The payment, if any, shall be made within the following 5 business days to the date of the independent expert’s decision, in cash or by wire transfer of immediately available funds. If the Parties do not agree on the appointment of the referred independent expert, one of the following auditing firms shall be chosen by lot: Ernst & Young, Deloitte or PriceWaterhouseCoopers. If the chosen firm does not accept, a new draw shall be done between the two other firms.


3.3.4		Possible Adjustment and Compensation of Earn Out Payment

		Seller will be liable for breach of certain of Seller’s representations and warranties or indemnification obligations occurring before the Earn Out Payment Date, in accordance with terms of clause 9.1.1.5. The amount of the Earn Out Payment will be subject to adjustment for and offset of Seller’s liability, under the following conditions:

		(i) Buyer shall under any circumstance notify Seller in writing of any indemnification claim.

		(ii) The Earn Out Payment shall be reduced in the amount requested by Buyer as above (but within the limits, regarding quantity and term, provided in this Agreement) if (a) Seller accepts its responsibility and agrees with the amount requested by Buyer or (b) if, although Seller does not accept its responsibility, a Court or Arbitrator issues a final sentence or decision (that is to say, when such sentence cannot be appealed) confirming Seller’s responsibility. If neither (a) or (b) above apply, pending the Court proceeding referred to in (b) above, (i) Buyer shall make payment to the Seller of the difference between the amount of the Earn Out Payment (calculated as provided in this clause 3.3.2) and the amount of any indemnification for which notice is given by the Buyer, and (ii) the remainder of the Earn Out Payment (the amount that has been claimed by Buyer), shall be deposited in escrow by Buyer. Buyer shall be responsible to appoint, within seven (7) business days, the Spanish bank or savings bank entity or a Foreign bank or saving bank entity with office opened in Spain to acts as depositary in the escrow. A form of escrow agreement, that shall have to be used in the case herein referred, is attached hereto as Annex J.

3.3.5		Form of Payment

		The Earn Out Payment will be made either in cash (cashiers bank certified check or wire transfer, at Seller’s option) or in shares of stock of the Guarantor (or, its successor, as the case may be) which is made available by Guarantor to Buyer (hereinafter, the shares issued to Seller shall be referred to as the “Euronet Shares”), at Buyer’s option, provided that Seller may require that up to 50% of such amount shall be paid in cash (if Seller makes such request, Buyer and Guarantor shall be obliged to accept the request).

		Buyer shall not be entitled to make payment in Euronet Shares if, on the Earn Out Payment Date, there is a suspension of the listing of Euronet Shares on the NASDAQ National Market; therefore, in this case, the payment shall be in cash.

		The certificate for Euronet Shares shall be delivered to Seller within five (5) business day following the Earn Out Payment Date.

		Any Euronet Shares issued in payment of the Earn Out Payment shall be registered by Guarantor with the SEC within a period of 90 days from their issuance in accordance with the following provisions. Terms and conditions regarding such registration procedure are described in Section 7 below.


		On the Earn Out Payment Date, both Parties shall verify the closing trading price of the Euronet Shares. For purposes of payment of the Earn Out Payment, any Euronet Shares shall be valued at the average closing trading price of the Euronet Shares on the NASDAQ National Market for the twenty (20) days before the Earn Out Payment (hereinafter, the “Average Trading Price”). In relation to the portion of the Earn Out Payment that is paid, if it is so decided - in Euronet Shares, if the closing trading price of Euronet Shares on the NASDAQ National Market on the 90th day following the Earn Out Payment Date (the “Value Measurement Date”) is lower than the closing trading price on the Earn Out Payment Date, Buyer shall be required to make an additional payment to Seller in cash or, at Buyer’s option, in Euronet Shares valued at the closing trading price on the Value Measurement Date in the amount of the per share price decrease, multiplied by the number of shares issued to Seller on the Earn Out Payment Date. Such additional shares shall either be registered in the Registration Statement already filed with respect to the Euronet Shares, or shall be registered as promptly as possible after issuance. The Euronet Shares plus the additional shares above mentioned, shall be referred to as the “Total Euronet Shares”. Such payment or delivery of the additional shares shall be made within five (5) business days after the Value Measurement Date.

		If, after 90 days from the Earn Out Payment Date, the Euronet Shares are not registered with the SEC, Seller may, at its option, give notice to Buyer that it wishes the Buyer to pay the Seller within 30 days, in cash, an amount equal to the aggregate total value of the Euronet Shares, as determined in accordance with the criteria established above for the Average Trading Price, plus a 5% annual interest of such amount since the Earn Out Payment Date until the day payment is actually made. However, if during the referred period of 30 days, Euronet Shares are finally registered, Buyer shall be entitled to pay the Seller with such Euronet Shares. If after the aforementioned 30 days the Euronet Shares have not been registered, the obligation to pay in cash shall apply and the Seller shall return to the Buyer the certificates for such Euronet Shares.

		It is understood that total dilution arising from the issuance by the Guarantor of stock under this Agreement shall not, under any circumstances, exceed 19.99% of the outstanding shares of the Guarantor at any time. In any event, if the Euronet Shares exceed such percentage, the amount not covered with such Euronet Shares shall be paid to Seller immediately by cash.

3.3.6		Payment with Euronet Shares

		In the event that the Buyer elects to pay the Earn Out Payment in Euronet Shares, and without prejudice of the right of Seller to request 50% in cash, the following provisions shall apply:

3.3.6.1 The Guarantor shall:-



		(i) subject to receipt of necessary information from the Seller, use its commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a registration statement on Form S-3 (or, in the event the Guarantor is not eligible to use Form S-3, such other registration form as may be utilized at such time by Guarantor) (the “Registration Statement”) to enable the res-ale of the Euronet Shares received by the Seller upon the payment of the Earn Out Payment by the Seller from time to time through the automated quotation system of the NASDAQ National Market or in privately-negotiated transactions;

		(ii) use its commercially reasonable efforts, subject to receipt of necessary information from the Seller, to cause the Registration Statement to become effective as soon as possible;

		(iii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement in force (other than during any Blackout Period (as defined below)) and effective for a period not exceeding, with respect to the Seller’s Euronet Shares, the earlier of (A) the second anniversary of the Earn Out Payment Date, (B) the date on which the Seller may sell all Euronet Shares then held by it without restriction by the volume limitations of Rule 144(e) of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or (C) such time as all Euronet Shares issued to the Seller have been sold pursuant to the Registration Statement;

		(iv) cause Buyer to furnish to the Seller with respect to the Euronet Shares registered under the Registration Statement such number of copies of the Registration Statement, of the Prospectus and of such other documents as the Seller may reasonably request, in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of all or any of the Euronet Shares by the Seller;

		(v) file documents required from the Guarantor for normal blue sky clearance in States specified in writing by the Seller; provided, however, that the Guarantor shall not be required to qualify to do business or consent to service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or has not so consented;

		(vi) cause Buyer to bear all expenses in connection with the procedures in sub-paragraphs (i) through (v) of this clause 3.3.6.1 and the registration of the Euronet Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement; and

		(vii) advise the Seller, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge of the issuance of any stop order by the SEC delaying or suspending the


		effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of the initiation of any proceeding for that purpose; and it will promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal as soon as reasonably practicable if such stop order should be issued.

3.3.6.2	With a view to making available to the Seller the benefits of Rule 144 of the Securities Act (or its successor rule) (“Rule 144”) and of any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Seller to sell Euronet Shares to the public without prior registration, the Guarantor covenants and agrees to: (i) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, until the earlier of (A) such date as all of the Seller’s Euronet Shares may be re-sold pursuant to Rule 144(k) or any other rule of similar effect or (B) such date as all of the Seller’s Euronet Shares are to be resold; (ii) file with the SEC, in a timely manner, all reports and other documents required of the Guarantor under the Securities Act and under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”); and (iii) furnish the Seller, upon the Seller’s request, as long as the Seller owns any Euronet Shares, (A) a written statement by the Guarantor that it has complied with the reporting requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (B) a copy of the Guarantor’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and (C) such other information as may be reasonably requested in order to avail the Seller of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such Euronet Shares without registration.

3.3.6.3	It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Guarantor to take any action pursuant to this paragraph 7.1 that the Seller shall furnish to the Guarantor such information regarding itself, the Euronet Shares to be sold by the Seller, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be required to effect the registration of the Euronet Shares.

3.3.6.4	Transfer of Euronet Shares After Registration; Suspensions; Blackouts

	3.3.6.4.1		Without prejudice of the provision stated in second paragraph of point 6 above, the Seller agrees that it will not effect any sale or other transfer of the Euronet Shares except as contemplated in the Registration Statement referred to in paragraph 3.3.6.1(i) and as described below, and that it will promptly notify the Guarantor of any changes in the information set forth in the Registration Statement regarding the Seller or its respective plan of distribution.

	3.3.6.4.2		Except in the event that sub-paragraphs 3.3.6.4.3 or 3.3.6.4.4 below applies, the Guarantor shall: (i) if deemed necessary by the Guarantor, prepare and file from time to time with the SEC a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or a supplement or amendment to any document


				incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that such Registration Statement will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Euronet Shares being sold thereunder, such Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; (ii) provide the Seller with copies of any documents filed pursuant to sub-paragraph 3.3.6.4.2(i), inform the Seller that the Guarantor has complied with its obligations in sub-paragraph 3.3.6.4.2(i) (or that, if the Guarantor has filed a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement which has not yet been declared effective, the Guarantor will notify the Seller to that effect, will use its commercially reasonable efforts to secure the effectiveness of such post-effective amendment as promptly as practicable, and will promptly notify the Seller pursuant to sub-paragraph 3.3.6.4.2(i) hereof where the amendment becomes effective).

		3.3.6.4.3		Subject to sub-paragraph 3.3.6.4.5 below, in the event of: (i) any request by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority during the period of effectiveness of the Registration Statement for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the related Prospectus or for additional information; (ii) the issuance by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order, suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; (iii) the receipt by the Guarantor of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Euronet Shares for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose; or (iv) any occurrance or circumstance which requires the making of any changes in the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and that, in the case of the Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; then the Guarantor shall deliver a certificate in writing to the Seller (the “Suspension Notice”) to the effect of the foregoing and, upon receipt of such Suspension Notice,


				the Seller will suspend offers and sales of Euronet Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement (a “Suspension”) until the receipt by the Seller of copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus prepared and filed by the Guarantor, or until it is advised in writing by the Guarantor that the current Prospectus may be used, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in any such Prospectus. In the event of any Suspension, the Guarantor will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the use of the Prospectus so suspended to be resumed as soon as reasonably practicable after delivery of a Suspension Notice to the Seller.

		3.3.6.4.4		Subject to sub-paragraph 3.3.6.4.5 below, if at any time the Guarantor notifies the Seller (as contemplated by sub-paragraph 3.3.6.4.3 above) that the event giving rise to such notice relates to an event involving the Guarantor which occurred subsequent to the later of (i) the effective date of the Registration Statement and (ii) the latest date prior to such notice on which the Guarantor has amended or supplemented the Registration Statement, then the Guarantor shall not be required to use its commercially reasonable efforts to make any changes to the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, during a period of up to 45 consecutive days as specified in the notice contemplated herein (a “Blackout Period”) and the Seller shall suspend offers and sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement during each Blackout Period; provided, however, that in any period of 365 consecutive days the Guarantor shall not be entitled to claim its rights under this subparagraph (d) with respect to more than two Blackout Periods, unless in the good faith’s judgment of the Guarantor’s Board of Directors, upon advice of counsel, the offer and sale of Euronet Shares would be reasonably likely to cause a violation of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and result in potential liability of the Guarantor.

		3.3.6.4.5		Provided that a Suspension or a Blackout Period is not then in effect, the Seller may sell Euronet Shares under the Registration Statement, provided that the Seller arranges for delivery of a current Prospectus to the transferee of such Euronet Shares. Upon receipt of a request therefor, the Guarantor agrees to provide an adequate number of current Prospectuses to the Seller and to supply copies to any other parties requiring such Prospectuses.

		3.3.6.4.5		In the event of a sale of Euronet Shares by Seller, the Seller shall also deliver to the Guarantor’s transfer agent, with a copy to the Guarantor, a notice of such sale so that the Euronet Shares may be properly transferred.


3.4		Earn Out Protection

3.4.1		The Buyer acknowledges that the Seller has an interest in receiving the highest possible amount of Earn Out Payment, and, as provided in this clause 3.4, shall not take, direct or indirectly, any action that is intended or has the effect of decreasing revenues or increasing expenses or that is out of the ordinary development of the business, unless such action is taken with the purpose of furthering the proper business interests of Buyer, but with the limits stated in clause 3.4.2 below.

		The obligations will apply until the end of the period used for calculating Year 2 EBITDA (the “Protection Period”). During the Protection Period, Buyer shall ensure that the principles set forth below are respected in the management of the MovilCarga Business (hereinafter, the “Earn Out Protection Principles”):

		• the MovilCarga Business will be managed in a prudent manner, consistent with past practices, except as necessary to operate it on a stand alone basis and to achieve successful integration of Buyer into the Euronet Group. With regards to this, provided that (i) this integration is beneficiary for the adequate development of the MovilCarga Business and (ii) provided that the expenses are at reasonably market prices;

		• all services rendered by, or commercial relationships with, any entities in the Euronet Group will be priced on market prices;

		• Buyer shall not be required to bear any expenses not properly attributed to it in accordance with GAAP, and in particular, the expenses of any other company in the Euronet Group;

		• Buyer will not incur SG&A costs at levels that are significantly higher than those of other Euronet Group companies. Seller acknowledges that Buyer will be required to incur expenses relating to accounting, legal and management resources as required to reinforce Buyer’s internal controls and procedures in conformity with the U.S. Sarbanes Oxley Act and introduce management reporting resources that are reasonably comparable to those in other Euronet Group companies.

		These Earn Out Protection Principles are listed just as examples but not as a close list, provided that eventual new protection principles follow the same spirit that the former ones, and, at least, that respect the following two criteria: (i) to facilitate the adequate development of MovilCarga Business and (ii) at market prices. In this regard, the termination of the Services Agreement with respect to certain services and the subsequent procurement of the services concerned at market rates shall not be considered to be a violation of these Earn Out Protection Principles.

		The Parties acknowledge that it shall not be considered a violation of this clause for Buyer or any member of Guarantor’s group to develop or acquire new prepaid mobile business in Spain, provided that, together with the Earn Out Protection Principles stated above, the following principles are fulfilled and respected by Buyer and by such member of Guarantor’s group:

		(1) Guarantor will ensure that the companies involved (the member of Guarantor’s group and the company or business acquired) act in a cooperative fashion with each other.


		(2) No actions shall be taken that, direct or indirectly, are an attempt to take clients from one company in favour of the other company.

		(3) The Buyer and any acquired entities shall have equal treatment regarding human and material resources (technology, etc.).

		(4) No restriction shall be placed on the geographical market that the Buyer is entitled to exploit.

		(5) No actions may be taken that, direct or indirectly, are an attempt to hire (i) employees of Seller or (ii) any professional working for Seller, away from Buyer in favour of the other company.

		(6) No Party may use confidential commercial information obtained by reason of the common control of the company to damage the commercial interests of any other party.

		(7) Buyer commits to make its best efforts to sign business contracts regarding the Movilcarga Business with VODAFONE and AMENA. If it is not successful and Buyer acquires a company that has signed any or both of such contracts, Buyer shall, if it has the required legal control of the acquired company and if VODAFONE and /or AMENA agree, cause the acquired company to provide conditions for Buyer to purchase AMENA and/or VODAFONE products that are, at least, as favorable as those offered to the acquired company.

		The Parties acknowledge that if the Buyer would want not to respect any of the Earn Out Payment Protection Principles, it will previously notify in writing to the Seller, indicating the potential negative financial impact on the EBITDA, if any. In any case, the negative financial impact derived from not respecting any of the Earn Out Payment Protection Principles shall not be taken into account for purposes of the calculation of the Earn Out Payment. As an example, should Buyer decide to locate Euronet Group employees performing non-Buyer functions in the Premises used by Buyer, the costs associated with such employees will not be taken into account in the determination of the results used in the calculation of the MovilCarga Business for purposes of the Earn Out.

3.4.2		Buyer acknowledges that it shall not, during the Protection Period, without the consent of Seller, make any sale outside the ordinary course of business in one or more related transactions of POS terminals that generate more than 15% of the


		revenues of the Movilcarga Business. Buyer may make sales of POS Terminals that generate 15% or less of the revenues of the Movilcarga Business without the Seller’s consent, but for purposes of calculation of the Earn Out Formula, if the sale of terminals takes place before or during the four-month period during which EBITDA is taken into account in the Earn Out Formula, the MovilCarga Business shall be deemed to have earned an amount of Year 2 EBITDA for each day during such period that falls after such terminals were sold, which is equal to the average daily amount contributed to EBITDA by such terminals during the three calendar months prior to such asset sale. In calculating such contribution, the SG&A expenses of the MovilCarga Business shall be attributed to the POS terminals sold in proportion to the revenues generated by such terminals as compared with the revenues of the MovilCarga Business as a whole. In the event of disagreement between the Parties regarding this clause 3.4.2, the Parties shall, within the five (5) following business days, mutually agree upon and appoint an independent expert. Such expert shall be instructed to resolve the disagreement as soon as possible, and in any event within 30 days of his/her acceptance as independent expert. The decision of the expert shall be binding upon the Parties, and both Parties expressly accept that they will obey the independent expert’s decision. If the Parties do not agree on the appointment of the referred independent expert, one of the following auditing firms shall be chosen by lot: ERNST & YOUNG, DELOITTE or PRICEWATERHOUSECOOPERS. If the chosen firm does not accept, a new draw shall be done between the two other firms. The independent expert’s fees shall be born equally by each of the Parties.

		During the Earn Out Protection Period, Euronet Holding shall not sell any of Buyer’s shares that are subject to the pledges provided in clause 4.3, without prejudice of provisions of clause 5, and cannot lose control, direct or indirect, over the Buyer.

3.5		Possible Declaration of Insolvency

		If Courts accept a request of declaration of insolvency (“declaración de concurso”) of the Buyer and/or the Guarantor made by any third party (including the Seller and the Buyer), the whole of the Deferred and Conditional Price shall be: (i) considered as overdue since the date of the request of the declaration of insolvency; and (ii) converted into a certain amount of € 15,28 million (if Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price has already been paid) and of € 25,28 million (if Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price has not yet been paid), unless the Seller decides at any moment to claim the amount calculated according to the provisions of Clause 3.2.

3.6		Protection of the Seller’s 20%

		If, at the moment Seller sells its 20% (or any other percentage) of the share capital in Buyer, Buyer has debts with any third party and/or with any company of its Group, undertaken to finance the Deferred and Conditional Price, Euronet Holding shall pay in advance to Seller the result of multiplying the amount of said debts by the percentage Seller has in the share capital of Buyer, or at its duscretion (the Buyer’s), Euronet Holding shall proceed to carry out a capital increase in the Buyer, in an amount equivalent to such debts aforementioned.

CLAUSE 4. GUARANTEES


4.1		Part B of the Deferred and Conditional Price shall serve as a guarantee for the fulfillment of the Representations and Warranties contained in clause 6, as well as for the fulfillment of any other Seller’s commitments or obligations by virtue of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the above, in the event of any non-fulfillment of the said commitments, obligations, Representations and Warranties by the Seller, the Buyer shall be fully indemnified by the Seller in accordance and with the procedure of clause 9.

4.2		Guarantor (or any of the companies that could substitute it in the future), joint and severally with the Buyer, hereby unconditionally guarantees the full and complete performance by Buyer of all its obligations under this Agreement, specially, but not limited to, those consisting of payment of the Deferred and Conditional Payment (Part A and B) and the payment of the eventual indemnification regarding competition issues, according to clause 7.3 and second paragraph of clause 9.4. In the event of any failure of Buyer to perform any of its obligations hereunder, Seller will have the right to claim indistinctly against Buyer or Guarantor. If Seller demands Guarantor directly, Guarantor shall have to fully fulfill and perform any such obligations on behalf of Buyer.

4.3		Immediately after the signature of this Agreement, Euronet Holding is signing a public deed in order to pledge in favor of the Seller a number of its shares in Buyer that represent a 31,25% of the total share capital of Buyer, in order to guarantee the Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price. Once such Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price has been paid, the pledge will be immediately released by Seller. Additionally, Euronet Holding (through its signature in this Agreement) commits to grant another pledge also in favor of the Seller over a number of Euronet Holding´s shares in Buyer that represent 23,75% of the total share capital of Buyer (these shares may be the same ones as the first ones), within the ten (10) following business days to the payment of Part A of the Deferred and Conditional Price, in order to guarantee Part B of the Deferred and Conditional Price. Attached to this Agreement as Annex K, is a form of the pledge to guarantee the Part B of the Deferred and Conditional Price. Once Part B of the Deferred and Conditional Price has been paid, the pledge will be immediately released by the Seller.

		The exercise of the rights of shareholder over the pledged shares shall belong to, at all times, including during the period they are pledged, Euronet Holding.

		Seller acknowledges that the shares concerned may be transferred as part of an internal reorganization of the Guarantor’s group to any company which is controlled directly or indirectly by Guarantor, without the approval of Seller, provided that the transferee company acknowledges the existence of the pledge or grants a new pledge on the same terms. In the event any such reorganization occurs, all references above to the “Euronet Holding” shall be deemed to be references to the member of Guarantor’s group that actually holds such shares.

CLAUSE 5. PRE-EMPTION RIGHTS; TAG-ALONG RIGHTS AND DRAG ALONG RIGHTS


5.1		The transmission of shares in Buyer between companies of the same group than the Transferring Party (as defined below) shall be free.

		The Transferring Party, being Euronet Holding, commits to make the Acquirer (as defined below) be obliged not to modify the By-laws of Buyer by including clauses against those provided in this Agreement.

		Notwithstanding the above, if Seller transfers to a third party all or part of its shares in Buyer, the Acquirer will not have any of the rights granted to the Seller by virtue of this Agreement (unless the Acquirer belonging to Seller’s Group).

If Seller agrees with the offer, Seller shall be obliged to sell its shares in Buyer. If Seller does not agree with the offer, it shall be necessary to determine the reasonable value of the shares in Buyer. The reasonable value shall be determined by one of the following three big auditing firms: Ernst & Young, Deloitte or PriceWaterhouseCoopers.

		(a) The total amount of the potential indemnification payable by Seller to Buyer shall not exceed 100% of the amount already paid until that moment by Buyer to Seller as price of the transmission of the Assets under this Agreement (as an example, if Buyer had only paid to Seller the Initial Price, the amount of the potential indemnification shall be limited to € 8 million); provided that such limitation shall not apply in the event of any (i) intentional misrepresentation or breach of this Agreement by Seller, or (ii) of willful or criminal misconduct by Seller.

9.2		Procedure for indemnification, in the event of third party’s claims

9.2.1		In the event that a situation arises that, in the opinion of the Buyer, could give rise to an indemnity obligation by the Seller due to any third party’s claims including without limitation claims by any governmental authority, the following actions shall be taken:

		(a) The Buyer shall notify to the Seller of the relevant circumstances and the possible liability derived there from, as soon as it becomes aware of the existence of such claim. In any case in which the claim is based upon a formal proceeding of which Buyer has received notice, the notice to the Seller is to be received by the Seller within five (5) business days from the Buyer receiving such written notice of the claim and, in any event, before half of the remaining period for responding or filing an appeal has elapsed, rounding up if an uneven number. In the rest of the cases, the notice to the Seller is to be received by the Seller within ten (10) business days from the Buyer receiving such oral or written notice of the claim. The failure to give the notices provided in this paragraph in a timely fashion shall not cut off the Buyer´s ability to make any claim it may otherwise have under this Clause 9, unless the failure has caused prejudice to the ability of the Seller to defend itself against a claim.

		Within five (5) business days from receipt of the notice set forth above or sooner if the circumstances of the event from which the indemnity obligation could derive so require in order to avoid any harm to the interests of the Buyer, the Seller shall take one of the following actions:

		(i) To notify the Buyer to proceed with the payment or fulfillment of the required obligations, in which case, it must make available to it, simultaneously to the notification, the amount of money required to make the payment, or the necessary means to fulfill the obligation. (ii) To notify the Buyer that Seller considers it has not to pay any amount or fulfill any obligation, according to this Agreement. (iii) To notify the Buyer that Seller wants to oppose the payment or the fulfillment of the obligation.

		(b) In the event that the circumstance giving rise to the liability is a final (not subject to be appealed) Court judgment or any other kind of final Court, administrative or arbitral decision, the Seller will not be entitled to choose


		between the alternatives set forth above, but rather will be obliged to pay to the Buyer the amounts that the latter has paid or must pay, within the five business day period set forth above.

		(c) In the case established in paragraph 9.2.1 (a) (ii) above, Buyer shall have to pay to the third party, if and when a final judicial, administrative or arbitral decision confirms the claim, and regarding the dispute between Seller and Buyer about whether Seller is or not responsible the third ´s claim, clause 16.2 shall be applicable. For clarification purposes, if on the Earn Out Payment Date there is any pending claim against the Buyer, the amount of such claim shall be subject to the escrow account system referred to in section 3.4.5 (b).

		(d) Under any circumstances, Seller’s notice shall not affect the ability of Buyer to offset as provided in clause 9.3 below and in paragraph 5 of clause 3.3.4.

		(e) In the event that the Seller chooses to oppose the payment or the fulfillment of the obligation, according to paragraph 9.2.1 (a) (iii) above, the Seller will designate the legal team to intervene, directly or indirectly, in such defense, subscribing directly with such legal team the required services agreements or otherwise, the Buyer undertaking to grant said legal team the necessary faculties and means and information necessary to undertake such task. Buyer shall provide Seller with all the relevant information regarding the claim and shall collaborate with Seller as it reasonably requests it in order to permit an adequate defense.

		Buyer shall bear all expenses Seller may incur as a consequence of defending Buyer against the claim made. If Seller losses the defense, without prejudice of paragraph (g) below, Buyer shall be entitled to recover from Seller all the amounts previously paid by it as expenses, within the 15 following business days to the judicial, administrative or arbitral resolution, as the case may be.

		(f) In the specific case that tax-related actions intended to clarify the tax situation of Buyer are initiated, which affect Seller’s tax periods closed prior to the Closing Date, or any taxes derived from Seller’s acts or omissions prior to the Closing Date, Buyer shall notify Seller, within five (5) business days following this fact being known (upon its receipt of the notice of initiation of such action), and Seller shall designate the legal team to take charge of the defense of Buyer’s interests before the Tax Authorities, and the Buyer, if they so wish shall designate a team of advisors to collaborate with those designated by the Seller in the defense of Buyer’s interests, in which case any decisions shall be taken by mutual agreement, Buyer undertaking to grant such powers and provide such documentation and means necessary for the development of its role.


		(g) Seller shall be obliged to indemnify the Buyer according to this Agreement, when the Buyer has to pay to the third party due to the claim of such third party. In this sense, it is understood that Buyer has to pay to the third party when a final judicial, administrative or arbitral decision (that is to say not subject to be appealed) has been adopted in favour of such third party. However, if the arbitration procedure of clause 16.2 is still pending regarding such claim (that is to say, it is not decided yet whether Seller is or not responsible for such claim), Seller shall only have to pay to Buyer if the final arbitration award confirms Seller´s responsibility for such claim. Until then, the escrow account system shall apply, provided that the claim aroused before and is pending on the Earn Out Payment Date.

9.2.2		In the event that the Seller had not paid the amounts claimed from it by the Buyer, within the time periods established in this Agreement, these amounts shall accrue a 5% annual interest, as from the date on which they should have been paid, according to the all the provisions established in this clause 9.

		The Parties hereby agree that the Buyer may offset against Part B of the Deferred and Conditional Price any and all claims that the Buyer may have against the Seller according to clause 9.1 and 9.2 above (that is to say, when such claims are (i) accepted by Seller, or (ii) confirmed by a final judicial, administrative or arbitral decision). In case of any claim neither accepted by the Seller nor confirmed by a final judicial, administrative or arbitral decision before the Earn Out Payment Date: (i) Buyer shall make payment on the Earn Out Payment Date to the Seller of the difference between the amount of the Earn Out Payment (calculated as provided in clause 3.3.2) and the amount of any indemnification request for which notice is given by the Buyer, and (ii) the remainder of the Earn Out Payment (the amount that has been claimed by Buyer), shall be deposited in escrow by Buyer. Such amount shall be governed by the rules of the escrow agreed between the Parties according to the form attached to this Agreement as Annex J; that is to say such amount shall be delivered back to the Buyer or delivered to the Seller; depending on contents of the final judicial, administrative or arbitral decision.

9.4		Indemnification by Buyer and by Guarantor

		The Buyer and the Guarantor hereby undertake to indemnify the Seller following the execution of this Agreement for any resulting loss, liability or damage caused to the Seller as a consequence of any misrepresentation or the breach of any warranty under clause 7 above, or any breach of any provision under this Agreement.

		Particularly, and without prejudice of the general provision established in the first paragraph of this clause, Buyer and Guarantor shall indemnify Seller for any loss, liability or damage, direct or indirect, derived from any resolution issued by the Competition Service not authorizing the Transaction or subjecting it to any condition, as a consequence of non-fulfillment (total or partial) or any of the obligations of the Spanish Competition Law. Buyer and Guarantor shall do whatever actions as necessary to duly indemnify Seller accordingly.


		The indemnification obligation established in the previous paragraph shall not be applicable in the event that the failure to obtain the authorization of the Transaction (or any condition to it) is due to inaccurate information provided by Seller in clause 6.16.

9.5		Notice

		Any payment which the Seller or the Buyer must make under this clause 9 shall be claimed by the Seller or the Buyer, as applicable, by means of a written notice sent to the address designated in clause 15 containing a brief explanation of the claim.

No provision of this clause 10 or this Agreement shall limit or in any way restrict the ability of the Guarantor to make any such disclosures.

10.3		In the event that the Receiving Party is requested pursuant to, or required by, applicable law, regulation or by legal process to disclose any Proprietary Information or any other information concerning the Disclosing Party or the Agreement or the MovilCarga Business, the Receiving Party agrees that it will provide the Disclosing Party with prompt notice of such request or requirement in order to enable the Disclosing Party to seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy, to consult with the Receiving Party with respect to the Disclosing Party taking steps to resist or narrow the scope of such request or legal process or to waive compliance, in whole or in part, with the terms of this clause of the Agreement. In the event that no such protective order or remedy is obtained, or that the Disclosing Party waives compliance with the terms of this clause of the Agreement, the Receiving Party will furnish only that portion of any Proprietary Information which the Receiving Party is advised by counsel is legally required and will exercise all reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded regarding any Proprietary Information.
