THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”) is made as of February 29, 2008, by and between INTL GLOBAL CURRENCIES LIMITED, a corporation organized under the laws of the United Kingdom (the “Borrower”) and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., a national banking association (the “Lender”).

Recitals

Pursuant to that certain Credit Agreement dated as of December 8, 2006 between the Lender and the Borrower (the “Credit Agreement”), the Lender established a revolving credit facility pursuant to which the Lender agreed to make advances to the Borrower from time to time in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000) at any one time outstanding.

The Borrower has asked the Lender to amend the Credit Agreement to extend the maturity date thereof and the Lender has agreed to do so, provided the parties hereto execute and deliver this Amendment, among other things.

2. Amendments to Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement is, effective as of the date hereof, hereby amended as follows:

The following definitions set forth in Section 1.1. of the Credit Agreement are hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

3. Extension Fee. The Borrower is not obligated to pay an extension fee in connection with this Amendment.

If any of the foregoing representations and warranties shall prove to be false, incorrect or misleading in any material respect, the Lender may, in its absolute and sole discretion, declare that a default has occurred and exists under the provisions of the Financing Documents, and the Lender shall be entitled to all of the rights and remedies set forth in the Financing Documents as the result of the occurrence of such default.
