STOCKHOLDER RETURN PERFORMANCE
The following graph compares the cumulative total return from December 31, 2004 to December 31, 2009 for our common stock, our
peer group index of payment services companies and the S&P 500 Index. The peer group index of payment services companies consists
of: Euronet Worldwide Inc., Fidelity National Information Services, Inc., Fiserv, Inc., Global Payments Inc., MasterCard, Inc., Online
Resources Corporation, Total System Services, Inc., Visa, Inc. and The Western Union Company (the "Peer Group Index"). We changed
our peer group in 2009 to delete CSG Systems International, Inc., DST Systems, Inc. and Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. and to add
MasterCard, Inc. and Visa, Inc. We believe the new peer group represents a more relevant group of companies in the global remittance
market that we participate in. The graph assumes the investment of $100 in each of our common stock, our peer group indexes and the
S&P 500 Index on December 31, 2004, and the reinvestment of all dividends as and when distributed.
