On September 30, 2013, First Cash Financial Services, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an agreement to amend its existing bank credit facility (as amended, the “Unsecured Credit Facility”). The amount of the Unsecured Credit Facility was increased from $175,000,000 to $205,000,000 and the amount of permitted acquisition investments over the previous twelve-month period was increased from 10% to 20% of the Company’s consolidated tangible net worth and included an additional allowance for acquisition investments of up to $60,000,000 during the period beginning September 30, 2013, and ending December 31, 2013. The Unsecured Credit Facility continues to bear interest at the prevailing 30-day LIBOR rate plus a fixed spread of 2.0% and matures in February 2015. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had $152,500,000 outstanding under the Unsecured Credit Facility.

The foregoing description of the Unsecured Credit Facility and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Unsecured Credit Facility, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto, and incorporated into this report by reference.
