Exhibit 10.1

AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT, originally effective as of March 15, 2001, is amended and restated on December 23, 2008, by and between COMPUCREDIT CORPORATION, a Georgia corporation (“CompuCredit”), and DAVID G. HANNA, an individual resident of the State of Georgia (“Employee”). This Agreement amends, restates and supersedes the employment agreement between the Company and the Employee that became effective as of the Effective Date (the “Previous Employment Agreement”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the parties hereto desired to enter into a written agreement for the employment of Employee by CompuCredit on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated which supersedes any and all written or oral arrangements between the parties concerning the subject matter hereof, including, without limitation, that certain employment agreement between CompuCredit and Employee dated as of January 1, 1999, as amended from time to time; and

WHEREAS, the Company and the Employee entered into the Previous Employment Agreement, effective as of March 15, 2001; and

WHEREAS, the Company and the Employee now desire to amend and restate the Previous Employment Agreement to reflect the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and the final regulations issued thereunder.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, CompuCredit and Employee agree as follows:

1. RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, CompuCredit hereby employs Employee to perform services (the “Services”) for CompuCredit as its Chief Executive Officer and as delegated to him from time to time by the Board of Directors of CompuCredit consistent with those generally associated with that position. Employee hereby agrees to devote substantially all of his business efforts toward performing the Services, which efforts shall constitute not less than a minimum average of forty (40) hours per week. In his performance of the Services, Employee shall comply with applicable CompuCredit policies and procedures. If there is any conflict between such policies and procedures and this Agreement, this Agreement shall control.

2. TERM; TERMINATION.

2.1 TERM OF EMPLOYMENT. The term of Employee's employment under this Agreement shall commence on the date hereof and shall continue indefinitely on an at will basis, subject to termination at any time by either party on not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice by either party, or as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.2 of this Agreement. The period of time Employee is employed by CompuCredit shall be referred to as the “Term.”

2.2 TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.

(a) This Agreement shall automatically and immediately terminate upon the death of Employee; or

(b) Either party may terminate this Agreement upon the Complete Disability of Employee. "Complete Disability", as used herein, shall mean the inability of Employee by reason of any physical or mental impairment to perform fully and effectively, as determined in the reasonable judgment of a competent physician selected in good faith by CompuCredit, the Services on a full time basis for an aggregate of 90 days in any period of 180 consecutive days.

(c) In addition to any other rights or remedies available to CompuCredit, CompuCredit may, in its sole discretion, terminate this Agreement for Cause effective immediately upon delivery of written notice to Employee. In this Agreement, “Cause” means the reasonable, good faith determination of a majority of the Board of Directors of CompuCredit that:

(i) (A) Employee has committed an act constituting fraud, moral turpitude, deceit or intentional material misrepresentation with respect to CompuCredit or any client, customer or supplier of CompuCredit; (B) Employee has embezzled funds or assets from CompuCredit or any client, customer or supplier of CompuCredit; or (C) Employee has engaged in willful misconduct or gross negligence in the performance of the Services;

(ii) Employee has breached or defaulted in the performance of any material provision of this Agreement and has not cured such breach or default to CompuCredit's reasonable satisfaction within thirty (30) days after receiving notice thereof (provided that any breach by Employee of any obligation under Section 9 will be grounds for immediate termination for “Cause” without any notice or right to cure); or

(iii) Employee's conduct is materially detrimental to the reputation of CompuCredit which Employee has not cured (if such conduct is curable in CompuCredit's reasonable opinion) to CompuCredit's reasonable satisfaction within ten (10) days after receiving notice thereof.

(d) The date on which this Agreement expires or terminates for any reason is referred to herein as the “Termination Date.”

(e) Employee may terminate this Agreement following a Change of Control (as defined below), by providing CompuCredit at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of termination. For purposes of this Agreement, “Change of Control” shall mean the acquisition by any single person or entity or related persons or entities of either substantially all the assets of CompuCredit or more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding and issued common stock of CompuCredit.

3. COMPENSATION.

(a) During the Term, CompuCredit shall pay Employee as compensation for the Services an annual salary equal to $50,000. Such compensation shall be payable in substantially equal semi-monthly installments or in such other installments or at such other intervals as may be the policy of CompuCredit from time to time, but no less frequently than monthly, and shall be subject to such deductions and withholdings as are required by law or policies of CompuCredit in effect from time to time. Employee's salary per annum may from time to time be adjusted as agreed in writing by both CompuCredit and Employee.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if this Agreement is terminated for any of the reasons set forth in Section 2 hereof, CompuCredit shall be released of its obligation to pay further compensation or benefits to Employee as set forth in this Agreement except for salary already earned under Section 3(a) hereof and payable as set forth therein, and Employee will not be entitled to any severance or other benefits upon any termination of his employment hereunder.

4. VACATION. During the Term of this Agreement, Employee shall be entitled to such number of weeks of paid vacation in each calendar year of the Term as is provided in, and in accordance with, CompuCredit's policies in effect from time to time for management employees.

5. BENEFITS. During the Term of this Agreement, Employee shall be entitled to participate in executive employee benefit plans generally provided by CompuCredit to its executives, but only if and to the extent provided from time to time in such executive benefits plans and for so long as CompuCredit provides or offers such benefit plans.

6. REIMBURSEMENT FOR EXPENSES. CompuCredit shall reimburse Employee for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Employee in connection with the performance of the Services hereunder for travel, entertainment and other miscellaneous expenses to the extent such expenses are consistent with CompuCredit's reimbursement policy as the same shall be in effect from time to time. Reimbursement shall be made only against an itemized list of such expenses submitted to CompuCredit by Employee within thirty (30) days after being incurred, and, to the extent requested by CompuCredit, receipts and invoices evidencing such expenses. In no event shall any such reimbursement be made later than thirty (30) days after the period for submitting such itemized list expires.

7. CONFIDENTIALITY.

(a) PROPRIETARY INFORMATION. Employee acknowledges that as an employee of CompuCredit, he may from time to time have access to and be provided with trade secrets (as defined under applicable law), and other confidential, secret and proprietary information including without limitation, financial statements or information, technical or nontechnical data, formulae, compilations, programs, methods, data, financial plans, models, product plans, marketing or sales strategies, portfolio information, or lists of actual or potential borrowers, loan program participants or other customers not generally available to the public concerning any aspect of the products, services or businesses of CompuCredit, its affiliates, or its and their officers, directors, employees, advisers, agents or other personnel (collectively, “Proprietary Information”). Employee agrees that he will not, directly or indirectly, disclose, publish, disseminate or use any Proprietary Information except as authorized herein. Employee may use Proprietary Information to perform the Services but in doing so will only allow dissemination of Proprietary Information to any individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, association, joint stock company, government agency, trust, trustee, entity, unincorporated organization or any other entity on a strict need-to-know basis (provided such persons are first informed of the confidential nature of such Proprietary Information and directed to use or disclose it only as permitted herein). If disclosure of any Proprietary Information is required by law, a court or agency of the government, then Employee may make such disclosure after providing CompuCredit with reasonable notice, to the extent that providing such notice to CompuCredit is legally permissible, so that CompuCredit may seek protective relief.

(b) NON-PROPRIETARY INFORMATION. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7(a) above, the following shall not be considered to be Proprietary Information: (i) any information that was in the public domain through no fault or act of Employee prior to the disclosure thereof to Employee; (ii) any information that comes into the public domain through no fault or act of Employee; (iii) any information that is disclosed without restriction to Employee by a third party (which term shall not include any equity holder, affiliate, or counsel, accountants and other non-employee representatives of affiliated entitles, or of any of their respective equity holders, affiliates or related persons) having the legal right to make such disclosure, and (iv) any confidential business information that is not a trade secret on the three (3) year anniversary of the Termination Date; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the limited duration of the confidentiality obligation with regard to Proprietary Information not constituting a trade secret shall not operate or be construed as affording Employee any right or license thereafter to use Proprietary Information, or as a waiver by CompuCredit of the rights and benefits otherwise available to CompuCredit under the laws governing the protection and enforceability of patents, trade secret and other intellectual property.

(c) RETURN OF MATERIALS. On or before the Termination Date, or when otherwise requested by CompuCredit, Employee will deliver promptly to CompuCredit all Proprietary Information and all other files, customer lists, management reports, drawings, memoranda, forms, financial data and reports and other materials or documents and equipment provided to, or obtained or created by Employee in connection with the Services (including all copies of the foregoing, and including all notes, records and other materials of or relating to CompuCredit or their respective customers) in his possession or control.

8. TRANSFER AND ASSIGNMENT TO COMPUCREDIT.

(a) TRANSFER AND ASSIGNMENT OF WORK PRODUCT. To the greatest extent possible, any Work Product will be “work made for hire” (as defined in the Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C.A. Section 101 ET SEQ., as amended) and owned exclusively by CompuCredit. In this Agreement, “Work Product” means work product, property, data, documentation, “know-how,” concepts, plans, inventions, improvements, techniques, processes or information of any kind, prepared, conceived, discovered, developed or created by Employee in connection with the performance of the Services. Employee hereby unconditionally and irrevocably transfers and assigns to CompuCredit all right, title and interest Employee has or will have, by operation of law or otherwise, in or to any Work Product, including, without limitation, all patents, copyrights, trademarks, service marks, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights. Employee agrees to execute and deliver to CompuCredit any transfers or other instruments which CompuCredit may deem necessary or appropriate to vest complete title and ownership of any Work Product, and all rights therein, exclusively in CompuCredit.

(b) POWER OF ATTORNEY. Employee hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints CompuCredit as his agent and attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, in the name, place and stead of Employee, to execute and deliver any and all assignments or other instruments described in Section 8(a) above that Employee fails or refuses promptly to execute and deliver. The foregoing power and agency are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable.

9. COVENANT AGAINST COMPETITION.

(a) Employee acknowledges that the Proprietary Information that he has acquired and will acquire, prior to and during the Term, includes and will include information that could be used by Employee on behalf of a Competitor (as hereinafter defined), its affiliates or others to the substantial detriment of CompuCredit. Moreover, the parties recognize that Employee during the course of his employment with CompuCredit will develop important relationships with customers and others having valuable business relationships with CompuCredit. In view of the foregoing, Employee acknowledges and agrees that the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement are reasonably necessary to protect CompuCredit's legitimate business interests and goodwill. If this Agreement is terminated by CompuCredit otherwise than in accordance with Section 2.2 hereof, Employee will only be bound by the covenant against competition if he is paid at his then current salary for the one (1) year period of time from and after the Termination Date. Any such payments to be made during such one (1) year period shall be made in the same manner as Employee’s annual salary as of the Termination Date, subject to Section 19 below.

(b) DEFINITIONS.

(i) “COMPETITIVE POSITION”- (A) the direct or indirect equity ownership (excluding ownership of less than 2% of the equity of an entity listed on a major U.S. exchange or traded on a NASDAQ over-the-counter market) or control of all or any portion of a Competitor, or (B) any employment, consulting, partnership, advisory, directorship, agency, promotional or independent contractor arrangement between Employee and any Competitor whereby Employee is required to perform services substantially similar to the Services.

(ii) “COMPETITOR”- Any person or entity who provides products or services substantially similar to Company Services (as hereinafter defined).

(iii) “CUSTOMERS”- All persons or entities within the Territory (as hereinafter defined) during the one-year period prior to the Termination Date (A) to whom Employee offered or sold any of the CompuCredit's products or services (including, without limitation, any opportunity to participate in any loan program established by CompuCredit), (B) to whom were offered or sold any of CompuCredit's products or services or about whom Employee had Proprietary Information, (C) who were approached by CompuCredit with regard to a product or services, or (D) who were identified as potential customers by CompuCredit's models or processes.

(iv) “COMPANY SERVICES”- (A) purchasing, holding, and selling credit card and home equity loans (purchased, held or sold by CompuCredit), or portfolios thereof, or both, (B) servicing services, and (C) engaging in the business of making credit card and home equity loans to consumers.

(v) “TERRITORY”- The United States, which is the territory within which customers and accounts of CompuCredit will be located and where Employee will provide Services during the term of his employment under this Agreement.

(c) COVENANTS OF EMPLOYEE. In consideration of Employee’s employment by CompuCredit and CompuCredit’s providing to Employee the consideration described in Section 3 above, and based on and subject to the provisions set forth in Section 9(a) above, Employee agrees that, during the Term and for a period of one (1) year from and after the termination of this Agreement for any reason, Employee will not, without the prior written consent of CompuCredit, directly or indirectly for or on behalf of any person or entity other than CompuCredit, as principal, agent or otherwise:

(i) take any action in furtherance of a Competitive Position, including, without limitation, entering into a Competitive Position; or

(ii) solicit, entice or induce Customers for the purpose of providing services competitive with any of the Company Services; or

(iii) solicit, entice or induce (or attempt to do so) to leave employment with CompuCredit anyone who is or was, during the last year of Employee's relationship with CompuCredit, an employee of CompuCredit or an affiliate who would provide similar services to a Competitor.

(d) Employee hereby represents and warrants to CompuCredit that he is not now a party to any agreement, court order, decree or other restriction which restricts him from using or disclosing to any party any information deemed to be proprietary or confidential or deemed to be a trade secret, of which in any way restricts Employee from engaging in or rendering any of the Services.

10. INTERPRETATION; SEVERABILITY. All rights and restrictions contained in this Agreement may be exercised and shall be applicable and binding only to the extent that they do not violate any applicable laws and are intended to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Agreement illegal, invalid or unenforceable. It is understood and agreed that the provisions hereof are severable; if such provisions shall be deemed invalid or unenforceable as to any period of time, territory, or business activity, such provisions shall be deemed limited to the extent necessary to render it valid and enforceable, and the unenforceability of any provisions hereof shall not in any event cause any other provision hereof to be unenforceable. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed against or interpreted to the disadvantage of any party hereto by any court or other governmental or judicial authority by reason of such party having or being deemed to have structured or dictated such provision.

11. RELIEF. In the event of any threatened or actual breach of the provisions of this Agreement by either party, including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 9, the other party shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief in addition to any other remedies it may have at law or in equity.

12. NONWAIVER. Failure of either party to insist, in one or more instances, on performance by the other in strict accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of any right granted hereunder or of the future performance of any such term or condition or of any other term or condition of this Agreement, unless such waiver is contained in a writing signed by or on behalf of both parties.

13. NOTICES. Any notice or other communication required or permitted hereunder shall be deemed sufficiently given if delivered by hand or sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage and fees prepaid, addressed to the party to be notified as follows:

Suite 600

Atlanta, Georgia 30346

Attn: Richard R. House, Jr.

or in each case to such other address as either party may from time to time designate in writing to the other. Such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given as of the date so delivered or five (5) days after the date so mailed.

14. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia.

15. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENT. This Agreement contains the sole and entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to CompuCredit's employment of Employee and supersedes all prior discussions and agreements between the parties relating to such employment, including, without limitation, the Previous Employment Agreement, and any such prior agreements shall, from and after the date hereof, be null and void. Employee is a sophisticated businessperson and has received such documents and other information as he has deemed necessary to make his own independent judgment as to the merits of this Agreement and the remuneration that he will receive as a result hereof; further, it is hereby agreed by Employee that neither CompuCredit nor its affiliates have made any representation to Employee other than those specifically set forth in this Agreement. This Agreement shall not be modified or amended except by an instrument in writing signed by or on behalf of all of the parties hereto.

16. PARTIES BENEFITED. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon Employee, CompuCredit, and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns; provided that, as to Employee, this is a personal service contract and Employee may not assign this Agreement or any part hereof.

17. TAX CONSEQUENCES. CompuCredit shall have no obligation to Employee with respect to any tax obligation Employee incurs as a result of or attributable to this Agreement, including all supplemental agreements and employee benefit plans, if any, in which Employee may hereafter participate, or arising from any payments made or to be made hereunder or thereunder.

18. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed an original, and all of such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same agreement.

19. NONQUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION OMNIBUS PROVISION. It is intended that any payment or benefit which is provided pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement which is considered to be deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code shall be paid and provided in a manner, and at such time, including without limitation, payment and provision of benefits only in connection with the occurrence of a permissible payment event contained in Section 409A (e.g., death, disability, separation from service from CompuCredit and its affiliates as defined for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code), and in such form, as complies with the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code to avoid the unfavorable tax consequences provided therein for non-compliance. In connection with effecting such compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, the following shall apply:

(a) Neither Employee nor CompuCredit shall take any action to accelerate or delay the payment of any monies and/or provision of any benefits in any manner which would not be in compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (including any transition or grandfather rules thereunder).

(b) If Employee is a specified employee for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code, any payment or provision of benefits in connection with a separation from service event (as determined for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code) shall not be made until the earlier of (i) Employee’s death or (ii) six (6) months after Employee’s separation from service (the “409A Deferral Period”). In the event such payments are otherwise due to be made in installments or periodically during the 409A Deferral Period, the payments which would otherwise have been made in the 409A Deferral Period shall be accumulated and paid in a lump sum as soon as the 409A Deferral Period ends, and the balance of the payments shall be made as otherwise scheduled. In the event benefits are required to be deferred, any such benefits may be provided during the 409A Deferral Period at Employee’s expense, with Employee having a right to reimbursement from CompuCredit once the 409A Deferral Period ends, and the balance of the benefits shall be provided as otherwise scheduled.

(c) For purposes of this Agreement, all rights to payments and benefits hereunder shall be treated as rights to receive a series of separate payments and benefits to the fullest extent allowed by Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

(d) For purposes of determining time of (but not entitlement to) payment or provision of deferred compensation under this Agreement under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code in connection with a termination of employment, termination of employment will be read to mean a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code where it is reasonably anticipated that no further services would be performed after that date or that the level of bona fide services Employee would perform after that date (whether as an employee or independent contractor) would permanently decrease to no more than twenty percent (20%) of the average level of bona fide services performed over the immediately preceding thirty-six (36) month period.

(e) For purposes of this Agreement, a specified employee for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code shall be determined on the basis of the applicable 12-month period ending on the specified employee identification date designated by CompuCredit consistently for purposes of this Agreement and similar agreements or, if no such designation is made, based on the default rules and regulations under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, CompuCredit shall not be liable to Employee if any payment or benefit which is to be provided pursuant to this Agreement and which is considered deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code otherwise fails to comply with, or be exempt from, the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the date first above written.

AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), originally effective as of August 29, 2002 (the “Effective Date”), and amended and restated as of October 16, 2005, is amended and restated again effective as of December 23, 2008, by and between CompuCredit Corporation , a Georgia corporation (“CompuCredit”), and J.Paul Whitehead III , an individual resident of the State of Georgia (“Employee”). This Agreement amends, restates and supersedes the employment agreement between the Company and the Employee effective as of the Effective Date and amended and restated effective as of October 16, 2005 (the “Previous Employment Agreement”).

WITNESSETH :

WHEREAS, in consideration of, among other things, CompuCredit’s reappointment of Employee to the position of Chief Financial Officer, Employee agreed to devote his full working time to the business efforts of CompuCredit; and

WHEREAS, the parties amended and restated the employment agreement, effective as of August 29, 2002, in its entirety into the Previous Employment Agreement to set forth the terms and conditions of Employee’s continued employment with CompuCredit, effective as of October 16, 2005; and

WHEREAS, CompuCredit and the Employee now desire to amend and restate the Previous Employment Agreement to reflect the provisions of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the final regulations issued thereunder.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the Employee’s employment with CompuCredit and the premises and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, CompuCredit and Employee hereby agree as follows:

1. Relationship Re-established . Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, CompuCredit hereby employs Employee to serve as the Chief Financial Officer of CompuCredit, and, as such, Employee shall direct and manage the financial affairs of CompuCredit and shall have such other executive level powers and duties as shall be otherwise conferred on him by CompuCredit’s Board of Directors or Chief Executive Officer consistent with those generally associated with that position (collectively, the “Services”). Employee shall perform the Services at the direction of CompuCredit’s Chief Executive Officer. Employee hereby agrees to devote 100% of his business time, attention, energy and skill exclusively to performing his obligations and duties hereunder and to engage in no business activities other than the performance of his obligations and duties hereunder, except for those specific activities as the Chief Executive Officer or Board of Directors of CompuCredit shall approve in advance in writing; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall restrict or prevent Employee from personally and for his own account owning and dealing in stocks, bonds, securities, real estate, commodities, or other investment properties for his own benefit or the benefit of his family. Further, nothing herein contained shall restrict or prevent Employee from serving on the Board of Directors of a non-profit entity or any entity that the Chief Executive Officer approves of in writing. Employee shall perform his obligations and duties hereunder diligently, faithfully and to the best of his abilities and, in doing so, shall comply with applicable CompuCredit policies and procedures. If there is any conflict between such policies and procedures and this Agreement, this Agreement shall control.

2. Term; Termination .

2.1 Term of Employment . The term of Employee’s employment under this Agreement shall commence on the date hereof and shall continue automatically month by month upon the terms and conditions contained herein until terminated in accordance with Section 2.2. The period of time Employee is employed by CompuCredit shall be collectively referred to as the “Term.”

2.2 Termination of Employment .

(a) This Agreement shall automatically and immediately terminate upon the death of Employee.

(c) In addition to any other rights or remedies available to CompuCredit, CompuCredit may, in its sole discretion, terminate Employee’s employment for Cause effective immediately upon delivery of written notice to Employee. In this Agreement, “Cause” means the reasonable, good faith determination of a majority of the members of CompuCredit’s Board of Directors that:

(i) (A) Employee has committed an act constituting fraud, deceit or intentional material misrepresentation with respect to CompuCredit or any client, customer or supplier of CompuCredit; (B) Employee has embezzled funds or assets from CompuCredit or any client or customer of CompuCredit; (C) Employee has engaged in willful misconduct or gross negligence in the performance of the Services; (D) Employee has failed to comply in a material way with any of the terms of Section 1 or Section 9 hereof;

6. Reimbursement for Expenses . CompuCredit shall reimburse Employee for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Employee in connection with the performance of the Services hereunder for travel, entertainment and other miscellaneous expenses to the extent such expenses are consistent with CompuCredit’s reimbursement policy as the same shall be in effect from time to time. Additionally, CompuCredit shall reimburse Employee for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Employee associated with Employee’s efforts to maintain those continuing professional education requirements of his license in the State of Georgia to practice as a Certified Public Accountant, as well as those professional association dues, licensure fees, and business license payments incurred by Employee in connection with his status as a Certified Public Accountant. Reimbursement shall be made only against an itemized list of such expenses submitted to CompuCredit by Employee within thirty (30) days after being incurred, and, to the extent requested by CompuCredit, receipts and invoices evidencing such expenses.

Employee agrees that he will not, directly or indirectly, disclose, publish, disseminate or use any confidential information except in connection with the performance of the Services. If disclosure of any Confidential Information is required by law, a court or agency of the government, then Employee may make such disclosure after providing CompuCredit with reasonable notice, to the extent that providing such notice to CompuCredit is legally permissible, so that CompuCredit may seek protective relief.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7(a) above, the following shall not be considered to be Proprietary information: (i) any information that was in the public domain through no fault or act of Employee prior to the disclosure thereof to Employee; (ii) any information that came to Employee during any employment prior to that with CompuCredit; (iii) any information that comes into the public domain through no fault or act of Employee; and (iv) any confidential business information that is not a trade secret on and after the three (3) year anniversary of the Termination Date; provided, however, that the limited duration of the confidentiality obligation with regard to Proprietary Information not constituting a trade secret shall not operate or be construed as affording Employee any right or license thereafter to use Proprietary Information, or as a waiver by CompuCredit of the rights and benefits otherwise available to CompuCredit under the laws governing the protection and enforceability of patents, trade secrets and other intellectual property.

(c) Return of Materials . On or before the Termination Date, or when otherwise requested by CompuCredit, Employee will deliver promptly to CompuCredit all Proprietary Information and all other files, customer lists, management reports, drawings, memoranda, forms, financial data and reports and other materials or documents and equipment provided to, or obtained or created by Employee in connection with the Services (including all copies of the foregoing, and including all notes, records and other materials of or relating to CompuCredit or their respective customers) in his possession or control and shall destroy all other Proprietary Information in his possession.

12. Interpretation; Severability .

It is understood and agreed that the provisions hereof are severable; if such provisions shall be deemed invalid or unenforceable as to any period of time, territory, or business activity, such provisions shall be deemed limited to the extent necessary to render it valid and enforceable, and the unenforceability of any provisions hereof shall not in any event cause any other provision hereof to be unenforceable. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed against or interpreted to the disadvantage of any party hereto by any court or other governmental or judicial authority by reason of such party having or being deemed to have structured or dictated such provision.

13. Relief . In the event of any threatened or actual breach of the provisions of this Agreement by either party, the other party shall be entitled to injunctive relief in addition to any other remedies it may have at law or in equity.

14. Nonwaiver . Failure of either party to insist, in one or more instances, on performance by the other in strict accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of any right granted hereunder or of the future performance of any such term or condition or of any other term or condition of this Agreement, unless such waiver is contained in a writing signed by or on behalf of both parties.

16. Governing Law . This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia.

17. Entire Agreement; Amendment . This Agreement contains the sole and entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to CompuCredit’s employment of Employee and supersedes all prior discussions and agreements between the parties relating to such employment, and any such prior agreements shall, from and after the date hereof, be null and void. Employee is a sophisticated business person and has received such documents and other information as he has deemed necessary to make his own independent judgment as to the merits of this Agreement and the remuneration that he will receive as a result hereof; further, it is hereby agreed by Employee that neither CompuCredit nor any affiliated entities have made any representation to Employee other than those specifically set forth in this Agreement. This Agreement shall not be modified or amended except by an instrument in writing signed by or on behalf of the parties hereto. Furthermore, if any portion of this Agreement conflicts with any future agreement signed between CompuCredit and Employee, this Agreement shall control unless such future agreement clearly specifies that it is intended to supercede all or a specific provision of this Agreement.

18. Parties Benefited . This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon Employee, CompuCredit, and its respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns; provided that, as to Employee, this is a personal service contract and Employee may not assign this Agreement or any part hereof.

19. Tax Consequences . CompuCredit shall have no obligation to Employee with respect to any tax obligation Employee incurs as a result of or attributable to this Agreement, including all supplemental agreements and employee benefit plans, if any, in which Employee may hereafter participate, or arising from any payments made or to be made hereunder or thereunder.

20. Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed an original, and all of such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same agreement.

21. Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Omnibus Provision . It is intended that any payment or benefit which is provided pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement which is considered to be deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code shall be paid and provided in a manner, and at such time, including without limitation, payment and provision of benefits only in connection with the occurrence of a permissible payment event contained in Section 409A (e.g., death, disability, separation from service from CompuCredit and its affiliates as defined for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code), and in such form, as complies with the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code to avoid the unfavorable tax consequences provided therein for non-compliance. In connection with effecting such compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, the following shall apply:

(e) For purposes of this Agreement, all rights to payments and benefits hereunder shall be treated as rights to receive a series of separate payments and benefits to the fullest extent allowed by Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

(f) For purposes of determining time of (but not entitlement to) payment or provision of deferred compensation under this Agreement under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code in connection with a termination of employment, termination of employment will be read to mean a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code where it is reasonably anticipated that no further services would be performed after that date or that the level of bona fide services Employee would perform after that date (whether as an employee or independent contractor) would permanently decrease to no more than twenty percent (20%) of the average level of bona fide services performed over the immediately preceding thirty-six (36) month period.

(g) For purposes of this Agreement, a specified employee for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code shall be determined on the basis of the applicable 12-month period ending on the specified employee identification date designated by CompuCredit consistently for purposes of this Agreement and similar agreements or, if no such designation is made, based on the default rules and regulations under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code.

(h) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, CompuCredit shall not be liable to Employee if any payment or benefit which is to be provided pursuant to this Agreement and which is considered deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code otherwise fails to comply with, or be exempt from, the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the date first above written.

Employee's salary per annum may from time to time be adjusted as agreed in writing by both CompuCredit and Employee.

(b) Prior to the commencement of each fiscal year or within three (3) months following the commencement of each such fiscal year, Employee and CompuCredit shall in good faith mutually establish bonus amounts and targets for Employee for such fiscal year. Subject to Section 3(d) below, any bonus earned by Employee shall be prorated for any partial fiscal year worked by Employee.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if this Agreement is terminated for any of the reasons set forth in Section 2 hereof, CompuCredit shall be released of its obligation to pay further compensation or benefits to Employee as set forth in this Agreement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, subject to Section 20.0 below, that Employee shall be entitled to receive (i) any salary already earned under Section 3(a) above as set forth therein, and (ii) a portion of any previously agreed upon bonus (prorated based upon full months worked by Employee) for any fiscal year in which Employee worked for CompuCredit for at least 6 months within thirty (30) days of the Termination Date.

6.0 REIMBURSEMENT FOR EXPENSES. CompuCredit shall reimburse Employee for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Employee in connection with the performance of the Services hereunder for travel; entertainment and other miscellaneous expenses to the extent such expenses are consistent with CompuCredit's reimbursement policy as the same shall be in effect from time to time. Reimbursement shall be made only against an itemized list of such expenses submitted to CompuCredit by Employee within thirty (30) days after being incurred, and, to the extent requested by CompuCredit, receipts and invoices evidencing such expenses. In no event shall any such reimbursement be made later than thirty (30) days after the period for submitting such itemized list expires.

7.0 CONFIDENTIALITY.

(a) PROPRIETARY INFORMATION. Employee acknowledges that as an employee of CompuCredit, he may from time to time have access to and be provided with trade secrets (as defined under applicable law), and other confidential, secret and proprietary information including without limitation, financial statements or information, technical or nontechnical data, formulae, compilations, programs, methods, data, financial plans, models, product plans, marketing or sales strategies, portfolio information, or lists of actual or potential borrowers, loan program participants or other customers not generally available to the public concerning any aspect of the products, services or businesses of CompuCredit, its affiliates, or its and their officers, directors, employees, advisers, agents or other personnel (collectively, "Proprietary Information"). Employee agrees that he will not, directly or indirectly, disclose, publish, disseminate or use any confidential information except as authorized herein. Employee may use confidential information to perform the Services but in doing so will only allow dissemination of confidential information to any Entity on a strict need-to-know basis (provided such persons are first informed of the confidential nature of such information and directed to use or disclose it only as permitted herein). If disclosure of any Confidential Information is required by law, a court or agency of the government, then Employee may make such disclosure after providing CompuCredit with reasonable notice, to the extent that providing such notice to CompuCredit is legally permissible, so that CompuCredit may seek protective relief.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7(a) above, the following shall not be considered to be Proprietary information: (i) any information that was in the public domain through no fault or act of Employee prior to the disclosure thereof to Employee; (ii) any information that came to House during any employment prior to that with CompuCredit, with the exception of information gained while working at Equifax on behalf of CompuCredit; (iii) any information that comes into the public domain through no fault or act of Employee; and (iv) any confidential business information that is not a trade secret on the three (3) year anniversary of the Termination Date; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the limited duration of the confidentiality obligation with regard to Proprietary Information not constituting a trade secret shall not operate or be construed as affording Employee any right or license thereafter to use Proprietary Information, or as a waiver by CompuCredit of the rights and benefits otherwise available to CompuCredit under the laws governing the protection and enforceability of patents, trade secret and other intellectual property.

8.0 TRANSFER AND ASSIGNMENT TO COMPUCREDIT.

(a) To the greatest extent possible, any Work Product will be "work made for hire" (as defined in the Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C.A. ss. 101 et Seq., as amended) and owned exclusively by CompuCredit. In this Agreement, "Work Product" means work product, property, data, documentation, "know-how," concepts, plans, inventions, improvements, techniques, processes or information of any kind, prepared, conceived, discovered, developed or created by Employee while employed by CompuCredit. Employee hereby unconditionally and irrevocably transfers and assigns to CompuCredit all right, title and interest Employee has or will have, by operation of law or otherwise, in or to any Work Product, including, without limitation, all patents, copyrights, trademarks, service marks, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights. Employee agrees to execute and deliver to CompuCredit any transfers or other instruments which CompuCredit may deem necessary or appropriate to vest complete title and ownership of any Work Product, and all rights therein, exclusively in CompuCredit.

9.0 COVENANT AGAINST COMPETITION.

(a) Employee acknowledges that the Proprietary Information that he has acquired and will acquire, prior to and during the Term, includes and will include information that could be used by Employee on behalf of a Competitor (as hereinafter defined), its affiliates or others to the substantial detriment of CompuCredit. Moreover, the parties recognize that Employee during the course of his employment with CompuCredit will develop important relationships with customers and others having valuable business relationships with CompuCredit. In view of the foregoing, Employee acknowledges and agrees that the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement are reasonably necessary to protect CompuCredit's legitimate business interests and goodwill. If Employee is terminated without Cause, he will only be bound by the covenant against competition if CompuCredit elects to pay Employee his then current salary for the one (1) year period of time from and after the Termination Date. Any such payments to be made during such one (1) year period shall be made in the same manner as Employee’s annual salary as of the Termination Date, subject to Section 20.0 below.

(b) DEFINITIONS.

(i) "COMPETITIVE POSITION"- (A) the direct or indirect equity ownership (excluding ownership of less than 2% of the equity of an Entity listed on a major U.S. exchange or traded on a NASDAQ over-the-counter market) or control of all or any portion of a "Competitor" (as hereinafter defined), or (B) any employment, consulting, partnership, advisory, directorship, agency, promotional or independent contractor arrangement between Employee and any Competitor whereby Employee is required to perform services substantially similar to the Services.

(ii) "COMPETITOR"- Any Entity who provides services substantially similar to Company Services.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a) above, Employee may, throughout the entire Term, sell or dispose up to that number of shares of CompuCredit common stock (inclusive of the 150,000 shares permitted under subsection (a)) proportionate (in terms of equivalent percentage of CompuCredit shares owned) to the number of shares of CompuCredit common stock sold or disposed of during the Term by Frank J.

14.0 NOTICES. Any notice or other communication required or permitted hereunder shall be deemed sufficiently given if delivered by hand or sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage and fees prepaid, addressed to the party to be notified as follows:

THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), originally effective as of January 3, 2007, is amended and restated on December 23, 2008, by and between CompuCredit Corporation, a Georgia corporation (“CompuCredit”), and Krishnakumar Srinivasan, an individual resident of the State of Georgia (“Employee”). This Agreement amends, restates and supersedes the employment agreement between the Company and the Employee that became effective as of the Effective Date (the “Previous Employment Agreement”).

For the purpose of this Agreement, “Credit Card Line of Business” shall mean CompuCredit’s commercial enterprise of extending unsecured revolving loans to customers. Employee shall perform the Services at the direction of CompuCredit’s Chief Executive Officer. Employee hereby agrees to devote 100% of his business time, attention, energy and skill exclusively to performing his obligations and duties hereunder and to engage in no business activities other than the performance of his obligations and duties hereunder, except for those specific activities as the Chief Executive Officer or Board of Directors of CompuCredit shall approve in advance in writing; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall restrict or prevent Employee from personally and for his own account owning and dealing in stocks, bonds, securities, real estate, commodities, or other investment properties for his own benefit or the benefit of his family. Further, nothing herein contained shall restrict or prevent Employee from serving on the Board of Directors of a non-profit entity or any entity that the Chief Executive Officer approves of in writing. Employee shall perform his obligations and duties hereunder diligently, faithfully and to the best of his abilities and, in doing so, shall comply with applicable CompuCredit policies and procedures. If there is any conflict between such policies and procedures and this Agreement, this Agreement shall control.

2. Term; Termination .

2.1 Term of Employment . The term of Employee’s employment under this Agreement commenced on January 1, 2007 and shall continue for an initial term (the “Initial Term”) of five years from that date, unless sooner terminated in accordance with Section 2.2. Upon expiration of the Initial Term, Employee’s term of employment shall be automatically extended month by month upon the same terms and conditions contained herein until terminated in accordance with Section 2.2. The period of time Employee is employed by CompuCredit shall be collectively referred to as the “Term.”

2.2 Termination of Employment .

(a) This Agreement shall automatically and immediately terminate upon the death of Employee.

(i) Employee’s status or role within CompuCredit is demoted in any of the following ways:

(A) a material diminution in the scope and nature of Employee’s duties and responsibilities or the assignment of duties and responsibilities inconsistent with those generally associated with the position of primary executive of the Credit Card Line of Business;

(B) Employee no longer reports directly to the Chief Executive Officer or President of CompuCredit; or

(C) a reduction by CompuCredit of Employee’s base annual salary, incentive compensation opportunity or a material reduction of Employee’s benefits (taken as a whole) as in effect immediately prior to such reduction except as part of a general reduction of compensation of the senior management of CompuCredit based upon CompuCredit’s financial performance.

(ii) the failure of a successor of CompuCredit to assume in writing this Agreement contemporaneously to becoming a successor of CompuCredit;

(iv) CompuCredit or its successor transfers Employee to a location more than 50 miles outside the Atlanta, Georgia city limits.

(e) The date on which Employee’s employment expires or terminates for any reason is referred to herein as the “Termination Date.”

3. Compensation .

(a) During the Term, CompuCredit shall pay Employee as compensation for the Services an annual salary of $700,000. Such compensation shall be payable in substantially equal bi-weekly installments or in such other installments or at such other intervals as may be the policy of CompuCredit from time to time, but no less frequently than monthly, and shall be subject to such deductions and withholdings as are required by law or policies of CompuCredit in effect from time to time.

(b) Executive’s target bonus for each fiscal year during the Initial Term will be as follows:

2007	$1,850,000
2008	$2,150,000
2009	$2,400,000
2010	$2,800,000
2011	$3,200,000

Prior to March 15 of each fiscal year of CompuCredit during the Initial Term, CompuCredit and Executive will agree upon performance goals for Executive’s target bonus for such fiscal year, although all performance goals shall be subject to approval by the Committee (as defined in CompuCredit’s 2004 Restricted Stock Plan or the successor thereto (the “Stock Plan”)). Based upon the achievement of the performance goals, Executive may earn all, part or none of the target bonus. Subject to Section 11, any bonus that is earned shall be paid in shares of Restricted Stock (as defined in the Stock Plan). The number of shares of Restricted Stock paid shall be determined as soon as practicable following the filing of CompuCredit’s Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the relevant fiscal year and shall be based upon the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Stock Plan) of CompuCredit’s common stock at the end of the fiscal year. Shares of Restricted Stock shall be deemed “awarded” as of the first day of the year following a fiscal year with respect to which they are earned even though the precise number may not be determinable at that time. Subject to the provisions of Sections 3(c) to (f) and 11, any Restricted Stock that is awarded shall vest on March 15, 2012, provided that Executive has from the date hereof until March 15, 2012 remained in the full-time employment of CompuCredit. In the event that Executive has not remained in the full-time employment of CompuCredit until March 15, 2012, the Restricted Stock (or any substitute therefor) shall not vest and shall be forfeited, except as otherwise provided herein. Each grant of Restricted Stock shall be evidenced by a written agreement in CompuCredit’s customary form, modified as necessary to reflect the provisions of this Agreement. The actual bonus award will be determined as the product of target bonus specified above multiplied by the ratio of CompuCredit’s credit card line of business actual financial performance divided by the agreed upon performance goal (the “Ratio”). For each fiscal year, the Ratio must be a minimum of 70% in order for the Employee to receive a bonus for such fiscal year. The Ratio shall be capped at 100%.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if Employee’s employment is terminated by CompuCredit for Cause or by Employee without Good Reason (except in the case of death or Complete Disability of Employee), CompuCredit shall be released of its obligation to pay further compensation or benefits to Employee as set forth in this Agreement and any Restricted Stock or restricted stock units that have not vested shall be forfeited and not vest; provided, however, that Employee shall be entitled to receive any salary already earned under Section 3(a) as set forth above.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if Employee’s employment terminates as a result of the Complete Disability of Employee, CompuCredit shall be released of its obligation to pay further compensation or benefits to Employee as set forth in this Agreement and any Restricted Stock or restricted stock units that have not yet been awarded shall be forfeited and not vest; provided , however, that Employee shall be deemed to be One Hundred Percent (100%) vested in all Restricted Stock or restricted stock units that have been awarded prior to the commencement of the Complete Disability of Employee, provided , further , subject to Section 21 below, that Employee shall be entitled to receive his salary under Section 3(a) above for a period of three (3) months following the determination of Complete Disability of the Employee payable in substantially equal bi-weekly installments or in such other installments or other intervals as may be the policy of CompuCredit on the Termination Date, but no less frequently than monthly, as set forth above.

(c) Return of Materials . On or before the Termination Date, or when otherwise requested by CompuCredit, Employee will deliver promptly to CompuCredit all Proprietary Information and all other files, customer lists, management reports, drawings, memoranda, forms, financial data and reports and other materials or documents and equipment provided to, or obtained or created by Employee in connection with the Services (including all copies of the foregoing, and including all notes, records and other materials of or relating to CompuCredit or its customers) in his possession or control and shall destroy all other Proprietary Information in his possession.

11. Certain Covenants If CompuCredit Goes Private or There is a Change of Control or Diminution of Book Value .

(a) If at any time prior to March 15, 2012, CompuCredit becomes a “private” company (which, for purposes hereof, means a company whose shares of common stock are no longer traded on a national securities exchange and /or are owned beneficially by not more than 100 shareholders) while still being controlled by a “permitted owner” as defined below (any such occurrence, a “Going-private Transaction”), then (i) one-half of the shares of Restricted Stock that had been awarded prior to the Going-private Transaction shall immediately vest and shall correspondingly be sold as part of the Going-private Transaction, and (ii) the remaining one-half of the shares of Restricted Stock that had been awarded prior to the Going-private Transaction shall be converted into “restricted stock units” on the basis of one unit per share of Restricted Stock. Provided that Executive has from the date hereof until March 15, 2012 remained in full-time employment of CompuCredit, these restricted stock units shall vest on March 15, 2012, at which time CompuCredit immediately shall redeem the restricted stock units based upon their fair market value as of the end of fiscal year 2011. In addition, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3(b), any bonuses that are earned subsequent to a Going-private Transaction shall be paid in restricted stock units rather than Restricted Stock.

(b) If at any time during the Initial Term a “change in control” of CompuCredit occurs, any Restricted Stock and restricted stock units that prior thereto had been awarded shall immediately vest and be redeemed by CompuCredit immediately and any future bonuses provided for in Section 3(b) shall be paid in cash rather than in shares of Restricted Stock. For these purposes, a “change in control” shall mean the cumulative sale of more than 60% of the credit card portfolio (measured by number of accounts or dollar receivables) to any entity, for any purpose other than for securitization purposes, in any consecutive 12 month period or the acquisition of 50% or more of the “beneficial ownership” of the voting equity securities of CompuCredit (on a fully diluted as-converted basis) by any person or “group” (with the terms “beneficial ownership” and “group” having the meanings given to them for purposes of Schedule 13D under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) other than (i) Frank J. Hanna, III, David G. Hanna, their spouses, their descendants and the spouses of their descendants, (ii) trusts and other entities established generally for the benefit of Frank J. Hanna, III, David G. Hanna, their spouses, their descendants and the spouses of their descendants, and/or (iii) charitable trusts, foundations or similar entities established by any of the foregoing.

(c) For the purposes of Section 11(a) and 11(b), the fair market value of the restricted stock units shall be computed by applying price-to-book ratio implicit in the Going-private Transaction to the book value of CompuCredit for the fiscal year for which the bonus is being computed and, in the case of redemption in 2012, for fiscal year 2011, but in no event shall the fair market value on redemption be less than the amount of the bonuses that generated the restricted stock units. To the extent that any payment to redeem the restricted stock units on a Going-private Transaction or in connection with a “change in control” would not be permitted to be paid under Section 409A of the Code at the times set forth in Section 11(a) and 11(b) above, the portion of the payment for the restricted stock units that may not be made at such time shall instead be made on March 15, 2012.

12. Indemnification . In the event that the Employee is or becomes a party to or witness or other participant in, or is threatened to be made a party to or witness or other participant in, a “claim” by reason of (or arising in part out of) an “indemnifiable event,” CompuCredit shall indemnify Employee to the full extent authorized or permitted by law as soon as practicable after written demand is presented to CompuCredit, against any and all “expenses,” judgments, fines, penalties, and amounts paid in settlement (including interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of such expenses, judgments, fines or settlement) of such claim, provided that CompuCredit shall be obligated to indemnify only for settlements that it has approved in advance, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. For these purposes, (i) a “claim” shall include any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, or any inquiry or investigation, whether instituted by or in the right of CompuCredit or any other party, which Employee believes in good faith might lead to the institution of any such action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, administrative, investigative or other, arising in connection with an indemnifiable event, (ii) “expenses” includes attorneys’ fees and all other costs, expenses and obligations paid or incurred in connection with investigating, defending, being a witness in or participating in (including an appeal), or preparing to defend, be a witness in or participate in any claim relating to an indemnifiable event, provided that any attorney representing Employee shall cooperate fully with CompuCredit and its attorneys in order to minimize the duplication of expenses; and (iii) an “indemnifiable event” means any event or occurrence related to the fact the Employee is or was an executive officer of CompuCredit, or is or was serving at the request of CompuCredit as a director, officer, or trustee of another corporation, trust or other enterprise, or by anything done or not done by Employee in such capacity. Any payment to be made hereunder shall be paid as soon as administratively practicable but in no event later than the end of the year following the year in which occurs the settlement or other event for which such indemnification is to be provided.

13. Interpretation; Severability . All rights and restrictions contained in this Agreement may be exercised and shall be applicable and binding only to the extent that they do not violate any applicable laws and are intended to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Agreement illegal, invalid or unenforceable. It is understood and agreed that the provisions hereof are severable; if such provisions shall be deemed invalid or unenforceable as to any period of time, territory, or business activity, such provisions shall be deemed limited to the extent necessary to render it valid and enforceable, and the unenforceability of any provisions hereof shall not in any event cause any other provision hereof to be unenforceable. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed against or interpreted to the disadvantage of any party hereto by any court or other governmental or judicial authority by reason of such party having or being deemed to have structured or dictated such provision.

14. Relief . In the event of any threatened or actual breach of the provisions of this Agreement by either party, the other party shall be entitled to injunctive relief in addition to any other remedies it may have at law or in equity.

15. Nonwaiver . Failure of either party to insist, in one or more instances, on performance by the other in strict accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of any right granted hereunder or of the future performance of any such term or condition or of any other term or condition of this Agreement, unless such waiver is contained in a writing signed by or on behalf of both parties.

16. Notices . Any notice or other communication required or permitted hereunder shall be deemed sufficiently given if delivered by hand or sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage and fees prepaid, addressed to the party to be notified as follows:
