2005 Equity Incentive Plan

     THIS AGREEMENT, made effective as of this ___day of                     , 2007, by and between Cash Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and                                          , (“Participant”).

WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, the Participant on the date hereof is a consultant or advisor to, or a key employee, officer, or director of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries; and

     WHEREAS, the Company wishes to grant a restricted stock award to Participant for shares of the Company’s Common Stock pursuant to the Company’s 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”); and

     WHEREAS, the Administrator of the Plan has authorized the grant of a restricted stock award to the Participant;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.		Grant of Restricted Stock Award. The Company hereby grants to Participant on the date set forth above a restricted stock award (the “Award”) for                      (___) shares of Common Stock on the terms and conditions set forth herein, and subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 13 of the Plan. The Company shall cause to be issued a stock certificate representing such shares of Common Stock in the Participant’s name, and shall deliver such certificate to the Participant; provided, however, that the Company shall place a legend on such certificate describing the risks of forfeiture and other transfer restrictions set forth in this Agreement and providing for the cancellation and return of such certificate if such shares of Common Stock are forfeited as provided in Paragraph 2 below. Until such risks of forfeiture have lapsed or the shares subject to this Award have been forfeited pursuant to Paragraph 2 below, the Participant shall be entitled to vote the shares represented by such stock certificates and shall received all dividends attributable to such shares, but the Participant shall not have any other rights as a shareholder with respect to such shares.
2.		Vesting of Restricted Stock

a) The shares of Stock subject to this Award shall remain forfeitable until the risks of forfeiture lapse according to the following vesting schedule:

1

		Cumulative Percentage
Vesting Date		of Shares Vested

If the Participant’s employment or other relationship with the Company or any Subsidiary ceases at any time prior to a Vesting Date due to the Participant’s voluntary resignation or retirement or termination for cause by the Company, the Participant shall immediately forfeit all shares of Stock subject to this Award which have not yet vested and for which the risks of forfeiture have not lapsed.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the interest of the Participant in the Stock shall vest as to:

	a)		100% of the then unvested Stock upon the Participant’s termination of employment due to death, a “Disability Termination” (as defined in the Employment Agreement), or involuntary termination by the Company other than for “Cause” (as defined in the Employment Agreement).
	b)		100% of the then unvested Stock upon a “Change of Control.”

For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following events:

	a)		Any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing fifty percent (50%) or more of the total voting power represented by the Company’s then outstanding voting securities;
	b)		The consummation of the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets;
	c)		The consummation of a liquidation or dissolution of the Company; or
	d)		The consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity or its parent) at least fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power represented by the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity or its parent outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation.

3. Miscellaneous

a) Employment-At-Will This Agreement shall not confer on Participant any right with respect to continuance of employment by or other relationship with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, nor will it interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to terminate such employment or other relationship. Participant’s employment or other relationship with the Company

2

			and its Subsidiaries shall be employment-at-will, and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as creating an employment contract for any specified term between Participant and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.
	b)		Securities Law Compliance. Participant shall not transfer or otherwise dispose of the shares of Stock received pursuant to this Agreement until such time as counsel to the Company shall have determined that such transfer or other disposition will not violate any state or federal securities laws. The Participant may be required by the Company, as a condition of the effectiveness of this restricted stock award, to agree in writing that all Stock subject to this Agreement shall be held, until such time that such Stock is registered and freely tradable under applicable state and federal securities laws, for Participant’s own account without a view to any further distribution thereof, that the certificates for such shares shall bear an appropriate legend to that effect and that such shares will not be transferred or disposed of except in compliance with applicable state and federal securities laws.
	c)		Mergers, Recapitalizations, Stock Splits, Etc. Pursuant and subject to Section 13 of the Plan, certain changes in the number or character of the Common Stock of the Company (through sale, merger, consolidation, exchange, reorganization, divestiture (including a spin-off), liquidation, recapitalization, stock split, stock dividend, or otherwise) shall result in an adjustment, reduction or enlargement, as appropriate, in Participant’s rights with respect to any shares of Common Stock for which the risks of forfeiture have not lapsed (i.e. Participant shall have such “anti-dilution” rights under the Award with respect to such events, but shall not have “preemptive” rights).
	d)		Shares Reserved. The Company shall at all times during the term of this Agreement reserve and keep available such number of shares as will be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of this Agreement.
	e)		Withholding Taxes. In order to permit the Company to comply with all applicable federal or state income tax laws or regulations, the Company may take such action as it deems appropriate to insure that, if necessary, all applicable federal or state payroll, income, or other taxes are withheld from any amounts payable by the Company to the Participant. If the Company is unable to withhold such federal and state taxes, for whatever reason, the Participant hereby agrees to pay to the Company an amount equal to the amount the Company would otherwise be required to withhold under federal or state law.
	f)		2005 Equity Incentive Plan. The Award evidenced by this Agreement is granted pursuant to the Plan, a copy of which Plan has been made available to Participant and is hereby incorporated into this Agreement. This Agreement is subject to and in all respects limited and conditioned as provided in the Plan. All defined terms of the Plan shall have the same meaning when used in this Agreement. The Plan governs this Agreement, and in the event of any questions as to the construction

3

			of this Agreement or in the event of a conflict between the Plan and this Agreement, the Plan shall govern, except as the Plan otherwise provides.
	g)		Lockup Period Limitation. Participant agrees that in the event the Company advises Participant that it plans an underwritten public offering of its Common Stock in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and that the underwriter(s) seek to impose restrictions under which certain shareholders may not sell or contract to sell or grant any option to buy or otherwise dispose of part of all of their stock purchase rights of the underlying Common Stock, Participant hereby agrees that for a period not to exceed 180 days from the prospectus, Participant will not sell or contract to sell or grant an option to buy or otherwise dispose of this Agreement or any of the underlying shares of Common Stock without the prior written consent of the underwriter(s) or its representative(s).
	h)		Blue Sky Limitation. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event the Company makes any public offering of its securities and determines, in its sole discretion, that it is necessary to reduce the number of issued but unexercised stock purchase rights so as to comply with any state securities or Blue Sky law limitations with respect thereto, the Board of Directors of the Company shall accelerate the vesting of this restricted stock award, provided that the Company gives Participant 15 days’ prior written notice of such acceleration. Notice shall be deemed given when delivered personally or when deposited in the United States mail, first class postage prepaid and addressed to Participant at the address of Participant on file with the Company.
	i)		Accounting Compliance. Participant agrees that, if a merger, reorganization, liquidation, or other “transaction” as defined in Section 13 of the Plan occurs, and Participant is an “affiliate” of the Company or any Subsidiary (as defined in applicable legal and accounting principles) at the time of such transaction, Participant will comply with all requirements of Rule 145 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the requirements of such other legal or accounting principles, and will execute any documents necessary to ensure such compliance.
	j)		Stock Legend. The Administrator may require that the certificates for any shares of Common Stock granted to Participant (or, in the case of death, Participant’s successors) shall bear an appropriate legend to reflect the restrictions of Paragraph 3(b) and Paragraphs 3(g) through 4(i) of this Agreement.
	k)		Scope of Agreement. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Company, its Subsidiaries and its successors and assigns the Participant and any successor or successors of Participant permitted by this Agreement.
	l)		Arbitration. Any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the alleged breach of it, or the making of this Agreement, including claims of fraud in the inducement, shall be discussed between the disputing parties in a good faith effort to arrive at a mutual settlement of any such controversy. If,

4

notwithstanding, such dispute cannot be resolved, such dispute shall be settled by binding arbitration. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator shall be a retired state or federal judge or an attorney who has practiced securities or business litigation for at least ten (10) years. If the parties cannot agree on an arbitrator within twenty (20) days, any party may request that the chief judge of the District Court of Xxxxx County, Nevada, select an arbitrator. Arbitration will be conducted pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, and the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association, unless such rules are inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement. Limited civil discovery shall be permitted for the production of documents and taking of depositions. Unresolved discovery disputes may be brought to the attention of the arbitrator who may dispose of such dispute. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award any remedy or relief that a court of this state could order or grant; provided, however, that punitive or exemplary damages shall not be awarded. The arbitrator may award to the prevailing party, if any, as determined by the arbitrator, all of its costs and fees, including the arbitrator’s fees. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the place of any arbitration proceedings shall be Xxxxx County, Nevada.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed on the day and year first above written.
