THIS AMENDMENT is made as of the 28th day of March, 2005, by and between FIRST ADVANTAGE CORPORATION, doing business in Florida as First Advantage Holding, Inc. (the “Borrower”), a Delaware corporation and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A. (the “Bank”).

Recitals

The Borrower and the Bank executed a Loan Agreement (as amended from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”) dated July 31, 2003, pursuant to which the Bank has provided a credit facility to the Borrower. The parties previously amended the Loan Agreement on December 22, 2003, July 28, 2004 and September 7, 2004. The parties wish to further amend the Loan Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the parties agree as follows:

1. Article 1 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended so that, from and after the date hereof, Article 1 of the Loan Agreement shall read as follows

ARTICLE I

BORROWING AND PAYMENT

1.01 Revolving Line of Credit.

(a) The Bank has previously established in favor of the Borrower a revolving line of credit (the “Line of Credit”). The Borrower shall be entitled to borrow, repay and reborrow funds under the Line of Credit in accordance with the terms hereof so long as the total principal amount owed to the Bank under the Line of Credit does not exceed $45,000,000.00 (or such lesser amount as is set forth herein). The Bank’s obligation to make advances hereunder shall terminate at the expiration of the Revolving Period.

(b) The Borrower’s indebtedness under the Line of Credit shall be evidenced by a Renewal Promissory note (as amended, extended or renewed from time to time, the “Note”) dated March 24, 2005, executed by the Borrower in favor of the Bank in the original principal amount of $45,000,000.00. The Note shall bear interest at the rate set forth therein and shall be payable as set forth therein.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of one or more Equity Events (as defined herein), the Borrower shall apply one hundred percent (100%) of the proceeds of such Equity Event: FIRST to all accrued but unpaid interest on the Note; and SECOND to the outstanding principal balance of the Note until such time as the maximum outstanding principal balance of the Note does not exceed $20,000,000 (or such lesser amount as is set forth herein). Upon any principal reduction payment on the Note made in connection with an Equity Event, the maximum permitted outstanding principal balance of

the Note shall be permanently reduced by the amount of such principal reduction payment made in connection with such Equity Event. For the purposes of this Agreement, an “Equity Event” shall mean any equity investment in the stock of the Borrower, either through a public offering or a private placement of equity.

(d) The Bank shall make each advance under the Line of Credit upon written or telephonic notice from the Borrower to the Bank requesting an advance. The notice shall specify the date for which the advance is requested (which must be a Business Day) and the amount of the advance. The Bank must receive the notice prior to 12:00 noon (Eastern time) on the Business Day of the advance. Alternatively, the Borrower may request advances by drawing checks on a deposit account that is linked to the credit facility hereunder in accordance with disbursement arrangements that are mutually satisfactory to the parties. The Bank will make each requested advance available to the Borrower not later than the close of business on the Business Day of the request by crediting the Borrower’s account maintained with the Bank in the amount of the advance if as of such time: (i) the Bank’s obligation to make advances hereunder has not terminated or expired; (ii) a Default or Event of Default has not occurred; and (iii) all conditions to the advance set forth herein or in any other Loan Documents have been satisfied. The Bank may rely upon any written or telephonic notice given by any person that the Bank in good faith believes is an authorized representative of the Borrower without the necessity of any independent investigation. If any telephonic notice conflicts with a written confirmation, the telephonic notice shall govern if the Bank has acted in reliance thereon.

(e) For purposes hereof, the term “Revolving Period” shall mean a period commencing on the date hereof and terminating on July 31, 2006.

1.02 Term Loans.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may from time to time, upon written notice to the Bank, convert all or a portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Line of Credit Note to one or more term loans (each, a “Term Loan”), upon satisfaction of the following conditions:

(i) The Borrower shall provide written notice to the Bank, not less than thirty (30) business days prior to the requested effective date for such conversion of outstanding principal to a Term Loan.

(ii) Each such Term Loan shall be for a principal amount of at least $3,000,000.00.

(iii) No Default or Event of Default shall have occurred hereunder and be continuing at the time of such request.

2

(iv) The Borrower shall execute a promissory note (each, as amended, extended or renewed from time to time, a “Term Note”, in the form set forth on Exhibit “D” hereto. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall execute such other documentation as the Bank shall reasonably require in connection with such Term Loan.

(v) The Borrower shall pay a fee upon the execution of each Term Note, in an amount reasonably set by the Bank, not to exceed 1.0% of the Term Loan amount.

(vi) The Borrower shall pay all of the Bank’s fees, expenses and costs in connection with the documentation, closing and administration of each Term Loan, including, without limitation, all attorneys fees and costs, filing fees, documentary stamp taxes and intangible personal property taxes.

(b) Each such Term Loan: (i) shall be for a term of 36 months; (ii) shall accrue interest at the rate to be reasonably agreed upon between the Borrower and the Bank; and (iii) shall be payable in monthly installments of principal plus interest in an amount required to fully amortize the principal amount of such Term Loan over 36 months, commencing on the date of such Term Loan.

(c) Each Term Loan with be secured by a lien on the Borrower’s and each of the Borrower’s Included Subsidiaries’ accounts receivable.

1.03 Letters of Credit. Upon the Borrower’s request, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Bank shall issue letters of credit (the “Letters of Credit”) for the Borrower’s account. The Borrower shall not in any event be entitled to obtain a Letter of Credit after the expiration of the Revolving Period, and no Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date that is more than one year after the date of issuance thereof. The Outstanding Letter of Credit Amount shall not in any event exceed $500,000.00 (the “Letter of Credit Sublimit Amount”) or such lesser amount as is set forth herein. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Outstanding Letter of Credit Amount” shall mean: (a) amounts available for draws under outstanding Letters of Credit (whether or not such draws are subject to satisfaction of prior conditions); and (b) the amount of any draws under Letters of Credit for which the Bank has not received reimbursement. The Borrower shall request Letters of Credit by giving the Bank written notice of each request at least five (5) Business Days prior to the issuance of the Letter of Credit. The Borrower shall, with such request, complete an application in form acceptable to the Bank and execute or otherwise agree to such terms, conditions and reimbursement agreements (each, as amended or restated from time to time, a “Reimbursement Agreement”) concerning the Letter of Credit as the Bank may require. In the event of a draw on a Letter of Credit, the Bank may at its option obtain an advance under the Revolving Note (upon notice to the Borrower) to reimburse the Bank for such draw. If the Bank elects not to obtain an advance under the Revolving Note or if credit in the amount of the draw is not then available under the Revolving Note, the Borrower shall immediately

3

upon demand reimburse the Bank for the amount of the draw together with interest thereon and such other amounts as may be due under any applicable Reimbursement Agreement. The Bank shall not in any event be required to issue a Letter of Credit during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default hereunder. The Borrower shall pay the Bank such issuance fees as the Bank may reasonably require with respect to each Letter of Credit.

If at any time the Outstanding Credit Amount exceeds the Borrowing Base then in effect, the Borrower shall, not later than the next Business Day, repay the Line of Credit in the amount of such excess. The Borrower authorizes the Bank to charge any deposit account of the Borrower (other than accounts maintained by the Borrower with the Bank solely for payroll purposes and identified to the Bank as such) with the Bank for the amount of any such excess, provided that such charge to the account does not result in a negative balance in such account. The Borrower shall not be entitled to obtain any advance under the Revolving Note or other credit hereunder if the advance or credit would result in a violation of the lending limits set forth herein. The Borrower shall deliver a borrowing base certificate to the Bank demonstrating compliance with the lending limits set forth herein (together with attachments with supporting documentation including inventory schedules and accounts receivable agings): (i) on a monthly basis (not later than 15 Business Days after the end of each calendar month); and (ii) at such other times as the Bank in its discretion may request.
