THE COMPANY

OVERVIEW

The Company operates the only independent, non-bank owned automatic teller
machine ("ATM") network in Central Europe as a service provider to banks and
other financial institutions, and is one of the largest of such providers in
Europe. The Company was established in 1994 and commenced operations in June
1995. Since it commenced operations, the Company has undertaken a rollout of
its ATM network with 53, 166 and 693 ATMs in operation at December 31, 1995,
1996 and 1997, respectively. As of March 31, 1998 the Company operated a
network of 798 state of the art ATMs in Europe, with 359 located in Hungary,
332 in Poland, 64 in Germany, 35 in Croatia and 8 in the Czech Republic. In
addition, in December 1997, the Company established offices in France and
Romania. Subject to full evaluation of market opportunities, the Company
expects to install approximately 800 additional ATMs during 1998 and pursue the
possible acquisition of ATM network assets in Europe, the U.S. and other
markets. Through agreements and relationships established with local banks,
international debt and credit card issuers and associations of such card
issuers such as American Express, Diners Club International, VISA, Mastercard
and EUROPAY (together "International Card Organizations"), the Company's ATMs
are able to process ATM transactions for holders of credit and debit cards
issued by or bearing the logos of such banks and International Card
Organizations. In addition, through its sponsorship arrangements with banks
which issue VISA and EUROPAY cards, the Company is able to accept cards with
the PLUS and Cirrus logos. The Company receives a fee from the relevant card
issuing bank or International Card Organization for any ATM transactions
processed on the Company's ATMs. The Company also offers out-sourced ATM
management services to local banks that own proprietary ATM networks for which
the Company receives a fixed monthly fee and/or a per transaction fee. The
Company's Common Stock is traded on the NASDAQ National Market under the symbol
"EEFT" and based on its share price as of the close of May 1, 1998, the
Company's equity market capitalization was approximately $102 million.

As of March 31, 1997, Euronet's ATM machines accepted approximately 99% of
the domestic credit and debit cards issued in Hungary and 64% of the domestic
credit and debit cards issued in Poland. The Company is able to accept
substantially all of the domestic credit and debit cards issued in Germany due
to its connection, through a sponsorship agreement with the German bank,
Service Bank GmbH, to a central transaction authorization switch in Germany. In
Croatia, the Company currently accepts 11% of the issued credit and debit
cards, and it expects to be able to accept 29% by the end of May 1998 through
an agreement signed with Atlas American Express. The Company is at the early
stages of establishing its network in the Czech Republic where it currently
operates eight ATMs which are currently able to accept VISA cards, representing
22% of the credit and debit cards issued in the Czech Republic.

The Company believes that one of the most important factors in determining
the success of an ATM network is the location of the ATMs. The Company's
strategy is to establish sites for its ATMs that provide high visibility and
cardholder utilization. As part of this strategy, the Company identifies major
pedestrian traffic locations where people need quick and convenient access to
cash. Key target locations for Euronet's ATMs include (i) major shopping malls,
(ii) busy intersections, (iii) local smaller shopping areas offering grocery
stores, supermarkets and services where people routinely shop, (iv) mass
transportation hubs such as city bus and subway stops, rail and bus stations,
airports and gas stations, and (v) tourist and entertainment centers such as
historical sections of cities, cinemas, and recreational facilities.

5
<PAGE>

Recognizing that convenience and reliability are principal factors in
attracting and retaining ATM customers, the Company has invested in the
establishment of advanced ATM machines and monitoring systems, as well as
redundancies to protect against network interruption. Approximately 77% of the
Company's machines are available to customers 24 hours per day (with the
majority of the balance of the machines being limited by retail hours of
operation in the particular location.) The performance and cash positions of
the Company's ATMs are monitored centrally, with local operations and
maintenance contractors dispatched to fill and service the machines. The
Company's machines in all markets, except Germany, are linked by satellite or
land based telecommunications lines to the Company's central processing center
in Budapest (the "Processing Center"). In order to obtain transaction
authorization, the Processing Center interfaces with either the bank or
International Card Organization that issued the card ("Card Issuer").

The Company believes that the level of services it provides and the location
of its ATMs make it an attractive service provider to banks and International
Card Organizations. By connecting to the Company's network, local banks can
offer their customers the convenience of cash withdrawal and balance inquiry
services in numerous off-site locations without incurring additional branch
operating costs. Alternatively, banks can outsource the management of their
proprietary ATM networks to the Company, thereby reducing their operating costs
and improving the allocation of their own resources. In addition, the Company
believes that the services it provides permit it to capitalize on the increase
in bank account usage and credit and debit card issuance in Central Europe, as
demand for banking services continues to grow in the region.

THE ATM MARKET OPPORTUNITY IN EUROPE

The Company believes there are a number of trends occurring in its existing
and planned markets which offer significant opportunities for its business.
There can be no assurances, however, that the Company will be able to
capitalize on such perceived opportunities.

Substantial and Growing Central European Economies. Hungary, Poland, the
Czech Republic, and Croatia are among the fastest growing economies in Europe
and represent a consumer market of approximately 64.0 million people in the
aggregate. The long term sovereign credit ratings of these countries by Moody's
Investor Service, Inc. and Standard & Poor's Corporation are currently
(Baa3)/(BBB-), (Baa3)/(BBB-), (Baa1)/(BBB-), and (Baa3)/(BBB-), respectively.
Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic, and Croatia have recently experienced
significant growth in their economies, with 1997 real gross domestic product
growth estimates for each of these countries of 3.0%, 5.5%, 4.7%, and 7.0%,
respectively. In recent years, each of these countries has encouraged foreign
private investment. In 1995, direct foreign investment, was $4.4 billion for
Hungary, $1.1 billion for Poland, $2.7 billion for the Czech Republic, and $81
million for Croatia while for 1996, direct foreign investment in these
countries was $2 billion, $2.7 billion, $1.3 billion, and $349 million,
respectively. In addition to a steady inflow of foreign investment, Hungary,
Poland and the Czech Republic have reduced inflation from 28.3% and 26.8%, and
9.1% respectively, in 1995 to an estimated 18.0%, 15.9% and 8.5% respectively,
in 1997. Croatia has maintained inflation in the single digits, increasing only
slightly from 2.0% in 1995 to an estimated 4.0% for 1997.

Development of Central European Banking Infrastructure. Historically, the
banking industry in Central Europe generally has been characterized by low
levels of customer service, limited operating hours, and long waiting time to
complete simple transactions. With the fall of communism, the banking sector in
most Central European countries has undergone a significant transformation due
to the initiation of privatization programs and the adoption of free market
principles. These changes have allowed banks the opportunity to expand the
range of services and products offered. In addition, many Central European
countries have allowed foreign banks to enter local markets, bringing
additional technological know-how, products, expertise and capital. As foreign
banks have been permitted to establish banks or invest in local banks in the
region, the retail banking industry in many countries in Central Europe has
become more competitive. Many banks have begun to implement strategies for

6
<PAGE>

serving and attracting a larger portion of the retail market in this
competitive environment. The Company believes that banks view electronic
banking and the issuance of debit and credit cards as methods for increasing
customer service and enhancing customer loyalty.

Low ATM Density and Card Issuance in Central Europe; Significant Growth
Potential. The Company believes that two principal drivers of an ATM business
in a developing economy are ATM density per million people and card issuance as
a percentage of the population. The Company estimates that as of January 1997
there were 94 ATMs per million of population in Hungary, 17 ATMs per million of
population in Poland, 112 ATMs per million of population in the Czech Republic
and 15 ATMs per million of population in Croatia. These figures compare with
478 ATMs per million of population in Austria, 376 ATMs per million of
population in the United Kingdom, 419 ATMs per million of population in France,
459 ATMs per million of population in Germany, and 524 ATMs per million of
population in the United States as of January 1997. Based on information
compiled by the Company, as of January 1, 1998, the number of cards issued as a
percentage of population was 20% in Hungary, 5% in Poland, 14% in the Czech
Republic, and 16% in Croatia as compared with 110% in Austria, 151% in the
United Kingdom, 90% in France, 98% in Germany and 246% in the United States at
January 1, 1997. The Company believes the lower ATM density and card issuance
in these Central European countries provides potential for growth.

Development of Electronic Banking. The economies of most emerging markets,
including those of Poland, Hungary, and the Czech Republic, have historically
been cash based because efficient electronic funds transfer, ATM, and check
cashing and clearing facilities had not been developed. Most employees in these
countries have typically been paid in cash and until recently, most purchases
were made, and bills were paid, in cash. While electronic banking, including
electronic transfers, ATM and point of sale services have recently been
introduced into the region, they are still in the early stages of development.
The Company believes this represents a substantial opportunity. In 1993,
Hungary passed legislation to increase the use of electronic means of payment,
by requiring that civil servants receive their salary via direct deposit to
bank accounts. This legislation has been implemented by a government decree
under which all civil servants must receive their pay electronically by January
1, 1999. As a result, many people who ordinarily would not have a bank account
have been or will be forced to open accounts to access their salary. The
Company expects that a trend toward direct deposit of payroll in Central Europe
will continue. Direct deposit combined with the accelerating development of the
retail electronic banking industry and general economic growth in Central
Europe is expected to lead to increased bank account usage, credit and debit
card issuance, and demand for ATM services.

Additional Opportunities In Western European Markets. The developed markets
of Western Europe are characterized by high levels of card issuance and a large
number of ATMs. However, the Company believes that there are significant
opportunities in Western Europe for the Company's services including (i)
installing ATM's in high traffic, non-bank locations, (ii) providing ATM
outsourcing and management services to banks with proprietary networks and
(iii) offering innovative solutions for year 2000 compliance. The majority of
ATM's in Western Europe are installed in bank branches. In France there are
24,500 ATM's, but only 7% of them are in non-bank locations. By comparison,
approximately 41% of the ATM's in the United States and 17% in the United
Kingdom are in non-bank locations. The Company also believes that banks in
Western Europe will increasingly seek to outsource their proprietary ATM
networks to focus on their core businesses and reduce operating expenses.
Finally, there are a substantial number of ATM's throughout Western Europe
which are not year 2000 compliant or which will require upgrades to comply with
new technological requirements (for example, chip card readiness or new
encryption technology). The Company believes it can offer banks convenient
turn-key year 2000 compliance and chip card solutions, including purchasing an
existing ATM network and performing all the necessary upgrades.

THE ATM MARKET OPPORTUNITY IN THE UNITED STATES

7
<PAGE>

in the U.S. market to acquire existing regional networks and combine, develop
and integrate such networks to improve profitability through economies of scale
and more efficient operating methods. In addition, because it is the most
developed ATM market in the world, the U.S. market has experienced a
development of ATMs beyond the processing of simple cash transactions.
Innovative services offered by ATMs in the United States include projection of
video advertising during transaction processing, sale of travel and theatre
tickets and sale of phone cards. By purchasing and operating advanced machines
in the U.S. consumer market, the Company believes it can apply such operational
expertise in other markets in which the Company conducts its business. See
"Business--The Euronet Network."

The Company is in preliminary discussions regarding the possible acquisition
of a network of ATMs principally located in the Eastern United States from
Maine to Florida. The acquisition, if made, also would include various ATM
network operating agreements, ATM installation agreements covering
approximately 1,700 sites, approximately 700 ATMs on location and approximately
300 ATMs available for installation (the "ATM Assets"). The ATMs on location
are located principally in retail and grocery stores, including a national
chain. A new entity (the "Purchasing Entity") would be formed to acquire and
operate the ATM Assets. Discussions regarding the acquisition of the ATM Assets
and the formation of the Purchasing Entity are in preliminary stages and no
assurance can be given that agreements will be successfully concluded. See
"Business--The Euronet Network."

COMPANY STRENGTHS

The Company believes it has a number of key strengths which position it to
capitalize on the market opportunities it has identified:

Early Entrant in Central Europe; Established Market Position. The Company
believes it has an advantage as one of the early entrants to the ATM markets of
Central Europe. Euronet has been able to obtain ATM locations which are
typically characterized as high traffic non-bank locations with 24-hour
accessibility. The Company has been able to obtain long-term exclusive leases
and agreements for many ATM sites, at low cost. Examples of the Company's
highly visible locations include McDonald's, gas stations such as ARAL, OMV,
British Petroleum, and Shell, food stores such as Tesco, Julius Meinl,
Tengelmann, Kaiser's, Magnet/Grosso and Plus, Makro Cash & Carry, Ikea, Metro,
and the Marriott Hotel in Warsaw. In some cases, the Company has an option to
install ATMs at all the sites owned by certain retail chains. The Company
believes the quality of its ATM sites, and the long-term nature of its leases
will allow the Company to maintain its competitive position and to attract and
retain customers. In addition, as the only independent ATM operator in Central
Europe, the Company has established a significant number of agreements with
local and international banks and International Card Organizations which enable
it to attract a wider base of customers to its network than proprietary bank-
owned networks whose card acceptance policies may be limited. Furthermore, the
Company believes the number of its ATM sites, particularly in Hungary and
Poland, make it an attractive partner for Card Issuers wishing to extend their
reach.

Geographic Diversity of Operations. The Company currently conducts its ATM
network business in Hungary, Poland, Germany, Croatia, and the Czech Republic.
The Company believes that the expansion of its operations in its existing and
future markets will provide it with some protection against potential
disruptions in any one country's economy. In addition, the breadth of the
Company's country coverage allows it to direct the rollout of its network
towards the most lucrative market opportunities as they arise. For example,
should banks in one of the Company's countries of operation significantly
increase or decrease card issuance levels in a given year, the Company can
redirect its network rollout to factor in such developments without any
material disruption in its overall rollout plan. As the Company continues to
expand into its existing markets and new markets, such as France, the Company's
revenue base is expected to diversify and become less reliant on any one
country's economy. Euronet believes its geographic expansion will enable it to
benefit from the stability of the developed Western markets where the
cardholder base is large and transaction volumes are high while also allowing
the Company to benefit from the substantial opportunity of the emerging
markets.

8
<PAGE>

Extensive Range of Card Issuer Contracts. Euronet is the only non-bank owned
ATM network in Central Europe, which enables it to concentrate on processing
transactions for all Card Issuers whether they are individual banks,
consortiums of banks or International Card Organizations. As a result, the
Company is not dependent upon any one card source. As of March 31, 1998, the
Company had a total of 23 card acceptance agreements ("Acceptance Agreements")
with banks or International Card Organizations in four countries and it is
continuing to obtain contacts with local banks and International Card
Organizations in existing markets as well as new markets. The Company's
Acceptance Agreements generally provide that all credit and debit cards issued
by the banks may be used at all ATM machines operated by Euronet. Through
agreements with local sponsor banks in Hungary and Poland, Euronet is able to
accept all credit and debit cards bearing the VISA, Plus, Mastercard, EUROPAY
and Cirrus logos at its ATMs in Hungary and Poland. The Company is also able to
accept all credit and debit cards bearing the VISA and Plus logos at its ATMs
in the Czech Republic. Euronet has also entered into agreements with Diners
Club International and American Express. The agreement with Diners Club
International provides for the acceptance of all credit and debit cards issued
by Diners Club at all of Euronet's ATMs in Hungary, Poland and Croatia. This
agreement is a "regional" agreement which is intended to be extended to all of
the Central European countries. In addition, the Company has signed agreements
with American Express or its local franchise to accept cards in these
countries. The Company expects to begin accepting American Express cards in
Croatia under this agreement at the end of May. This will enable the Company to
accept approximately 29% of the cards issued in Croatia. Prior to being
permitted to accept VISA/Plus, Mastercard/EUROPAY/Cirrus and American Express
cards at its ATMs, the Company was required to demonstrate that it met all
standards set by International Card Organizations to process transactions for
such International Card Organizations.

Critical Mass; Largest Non-Bank Purchaser of ATMs in Central Europe. With
over 798 ATMs in operation and a monthly average of approximately 50 new ATMs
purchased or leased for the six months ended March 31, 1998, Euronet believes
it is the largest purchaser of ATMs in Central Europe and one of the largest
purchasers of new ATMs in Europe. As such, Euronet has negotiating leverage
with ATM manufacturers and believes that it receives favorable prices as
compared to lower volume purchasers. The Company has long term contracts with
certain ATM manufacturers to purchase ATMs at contractually defined prices
which include quantity discounts. These contracts, however, do not commit the
Company to purchase a defined number of ATMs. In addition, the Company has
leverage, as compared to smaller ATM networks, in negotiating favorable pricing
for ATM-related software, cash delivery services and ATM maintenance services.
As the Company continues to expand into other countries, it expects to enter
into multi-country agreements with telecommunication providers to reduce
monthly charges. The Company expects that as it expands its network its ability
to reduce costs will further enhance its competitive position.

Lower Cost Alternative to Banks. By acquiring ATMs, computer equipment,
maintenance, telecommunication and other services, less expensively, and by
running a focused operation, the Company believes that it can offer banks a low
cost alternative to building or operating their own ATM networks. The Company
can offer banks a connection to the Euronet ATM network, the management of an
existing proprietary network of ATMs or the development of a new ATM network.
The Company's ATM management services include 24-hour monitoring from Euronet's
Processing Center of ATM operational status, coordinating the cash delivery,
the monitoring and management of cash levels in the ATM, and automatic dispatch
for necessary service calls.

State of the Art Integrated On-Line ATM Network; Capable of Providing
Additional Services. The Company has purchased advanced hardware and software
providing state-of-the-art features and reliability through sophisticated
diagnostics and self-testing routines. The ATMs utilized by the Company can
perform basic functions, such as dispensing cash and retrieving account
information, as well as providing other services such as advertising through
the use of color monitor graphics, messages on receipts, and coupon dispensing.
In addition, the Company's ATMs are modular and upgradable so that they can be
adapted to provide additional services in response to changing technology and
consumer demand, including new products such as reloadable chip cards.

STRATEGY

The Company's objective, for the near term, is to maintain and enhance its
position as a leading ATM service provider in Central and Western Europe by
meeting international standards of reliability and customer service and to
evaluate other strategic markets where it can capitalize on its competitive
strengths. Key elements of Euronet's business strategy are to: (i) expand its
ATM base in existing and new European markets, (ii) leverage its critical mass
and achieve further economies of scale, (iii) continue to form strategic
relationships with banks and International Card Organizations, (iv) assist
banks in issuing cards, (v) capitalize on additional revenue opportunities by
providing value-added services with its ATMs, and (vi) pursue additional
geographic and other market opportunities, including strategic acquisitions.
There can be no assurance that the Company's strategy will be successful.

RISK FACTORS

The principal risks associated with the Company's business and the Offering
which should be considered in making an investment decision are the following
(all of which are described in full in the section of this Prospectus entitled
"Risk Factors"): (i) substantial indebtedness of the Company after the
Offering; (ii) the limited operating history and historical and expected future
operating losses and negative cash flow of the Company; (iii) the fact that the
Company is a holding company and therefore is reliant on subsidiaries for
distributions of dividends or interest to repay the Notes; (iv) the fact that
indebtedness under the Notes will be subordinated to certain debt of the
Company incurred before or after the issuance of the Notes; (v) the Company's
need for significant additional capital to conduct and expand its business;
(vi) risks related to the rapid expansion of the business of the Company;
(vii) the dependence of the Company on relationships with banks and
international card organizations; (viii) the dependence of the Company on key
personnel; (ix) the dependence of the Company on receipt of transaction fees,
which in turn depend upon issuance of debit and credit cards by banks in the
Company's markets; (x) legal constraints in Germany, France and other potential
markets, which make the Company dependent upon relationships with financial
institutions in these markets; (xi) competition from other networks of ATMs,
including, without limitation, networks owned by banks; (xii) political,
economic and legal risks associated with the developing markets in which the
Company conducts its business; (xiii) inflation, exchange rate and currency
risks and risks associated with the substitution of the Euro for national
currencies in Europe; (xiv) risks associated with the fact that the Company's
systems and operations are computer-based and both the Company and its bank
customers will be required to ensure that their systems are year 2000
compliant; (xv) absence of a prior market for the Notes; (xvi) certain risks
arising from the fact the Notes are issued at a substantial discount from their
principal amount at maturity; and (xvii) the fact that the certificate of
incorporation of the Company includes certain anti-takeover provisions. See
"Risk Factors."

In early 1998, the Company's Acceptance Agreement with Orszagos
Takarekpenztar Bank ("OTP") in Hungary, which accounted for approximately 51%
of the Company's 1997 consolidated revenues (and approximately 26% of
consolidated revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1998), was
terminated effective as of July, 1998. The Company believes that the effect of
this termination will be mitigated because the Company will still be able to
accept transactions on substantially all of OTP's bank cards through the
Company's VISA and EUROPAY gateways, subject to completion of a new EUROPAY
sponsorship agreement with another Hungarian bank client. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--
General Overview" and "Business--Agreements with Card Issuers and International
Card Organizations."

THE OFFERING

Notes Offered......... DM principal amount at maturity of % Senior
Discount Notes due 2006.

Maturity Date......... , 2006.

Issue Price........... DM per DM1,000 principal amount at maturity of Notes.

Yield and Interest.... % per annum (computed on a semiannual bond equivalent
basis) calculated from , 1998. Cash interest on
the Notes will not accrue prior to , 2002.
Commencing , 2002, cash interest will be payable
on the Notes semiannually on and of each year.

Repayment of Certain
Money to the
Company............... The Trustee and the paying agents shall pay to the
Company any money held by them for the payment of
principal, premium, if any, or interest that remains
unclaimed for two years. After payment to the Company,
holders of Notes entitled to such money must look to
the Company for payment as general creditors unless an
applicable law designates another person.

Original Issue
Discount.............. Each Note is being offered with original issue discount
("OID") for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Thus,
although cash interest is not expected to accrue on the
Notes prior to , 2002 and there are not expected to
be any periodic payments of interest on the Notes prior
to , 2002, original issue discount (i.e., the
difference between the stated redemption price at
maturity and the issue price of such Notes) will start
to accrue from the issue date of such Notes up to
2002 and will be includible daily as original issue
discount income in a U.S. holder's gross income for
U.S. federal income tax purposes. Because the Company
has the right to defer payment of interest until ,
2002, a U.S. holder of Notes may be required to
recognize such OID income substantially in advance of
receipt of the cash payments to which the income is
attributable. See "Income Tax Consideration--Certain
United States Federal Income Tax Consideration--
Original Issue Discount."

Optional Redemption... Except as set forth below, the Notes will not be
redeemable at the Company's option prior to ,
2002. Thereafter, the Notes will be subject to
redemption at the option of the Company, in whole or in
part at anytime on or after , 2002, at the
redemption prices set forth herein. In addition, at any
time prior to , 2001, the Company may redeem up to
33 1/3% of the aggregate principal amount at maturity
of the originally issued Notes at a redemption price of
% of the Accreted Value thereof with the net proceeds
of one or more Equity Offerings; provided that,
immediately after giving effect to such redemption, at
least 66 2/3% of the aggregate principal amount at
maturity of the originally issued Notes remains
outstanding. See "Description of the Notes--Redemption"
and "--Certain Definitions."

12
<PAGE>

Change of Control..... Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each holder
of Notes may require the Company to purchase all or a
portion of such holder's Notes at a purchase price in
cash in an amount equal to 101% of the Accreted Value
thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if
any, to the date of purchase. There can be no assurance
that the Company will have sufficient funds to complete
any such purchase. See "Description of the Notes--
Certain Covenants--Purchase of Notes upon a Change of
Control". For the definition of the term "Change of
Control" under the Notes, see "Description of the
Notes--Certain Definitions".

Ranking............... The Notes will be senior unsecured obligations of the
Company and will rank pari passu in right of payment
with all other existing and future senior unsecured
obligations of the Company and senior in right of
payment to all future obligations of the Company
expressly subordinated in right of payment to the
Notes. As of March 31, 1998, after giving pro forma
effect to the Offering and the application of the net
proceeds therefrom, the Company would have had
approximately $103.3 million of indebtedness of which
$3.3 million would have been secured indebtedness. In
addition, the Company is a holding company and,
accordingly, the Notes will be effectively subordinated
to all existing and future liabilities of the Company's
subsidiaries. As of March 31, 1998, after giving pro
forma effect to the Offering and the application of the
net proceeds therefrom, the Company's subsidiaries
would have had aggregate liabilities of approximately
$8.6 million. See "Risk Factors--Substantial
Indebtedness; Liquidity", "--Holding Company Structure;
Reliance on Subsidiaries for Distributions to Repay
Notes" and "Description of the Notes--Ranking".

Certain Covenants..... The indenture pursuant to which the Notes will be
issued (the "Indenture") will contain certain covenants
that will restrict, among other things, the ability of
the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to (i)
incur certain indebtedness, (ii) pay dividends and make
certain other restricted payments, (iii) create liens,
(iv) permit other restrictions on dividend and other
payments by restricted subsidiaries of the Company, (v)
issue and sell capital stock of restricted
subsidiaries, (vi) guarantee certain indebtedness,
(vii) sell assets, (viii) enter into transactions with
affiliates, (ix) merge, consolidate or transfer
substantially all of the assets of the Company, (x)
enter into sale and leaseback transactions and (xi)
make investments in unrestricted subsidiaries. The
covenants require the Company to make an offer to
purchase specified amounts of Notes in the event of
certain asset sales. There can be no assurance that the
Company will have sufficient funds to complete any
purchase of Notes upon a sale of assets of the Company.
See "Description of the Notes--Certain Covenants".

Form of Notes......... Notes sold outside of the United States will be
represented by the global bearer Note deposited with
DBC (the "DBC Global Note"). Beneficial interests in
the DBC Global Note will be represented through
accounts of financial institutions acting on behalf of
beneficial owners as direct and indirect participants
in DBC, including Euroclear and Cedel, each of which
has an account with DBC. All Notes sold to U.S.
investors (and others requesting registered Notes),
will be represented by a global registered note

13
<PAGE>

(the "DTC Global Note") deposited with a custodian for,
and registered in the name of, DTC or its nominee.
Transfers of interests in the DTC Global Note will be
limited to transfers of book-entry interests. See
"Description of the Notes--Book Entry; Delivery and
Form."

Use of Proceeds....... The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the
Notes being offered by the Company hereby, after
deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and
estimated offering expenses, are estimated to be
approximately $96.7 million (based on a Dollar--
Deutsche Mark exchange rate of DM 1.77= $1.00, the noon
buying rate in New York City for cable transfers in
Deutsche Marks as certified for customs purposes by the
Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the "Noon Buying
Rate") on May 8, 1998).

The Company currently intends to use the net proceeds
from the Offering, together with the existing cash
reserves of approximately $33.5 million at March 31,
1998, as follows: (i) approximately $60 to $70 million
to expand its ATM network in its existing markets of
Hungary, Poland, Germany, the Czech Republic, Croatia,
and planned future markets such as France and Romania,
including the purchase and installation of an aggregate
of approximately 2,000 ATM machines in such markets
through the year ending December 31, 1999; (ii)
approximately $11.2 million to repay $14.4 million of
the Company's capitalized lease obligations at March
31, 1998 which have an effective interest rate of
approximately 13.5% per annum and (iii) the remainder
will be used for general corporate purposes, including
expansion into new markets, expanding the provision of
ATM management services, the pursuit of possible
strategic acquisition and joint venture opportunities
consistent with the Company's strategy of expanding its
ATM network, including a possible acquisition of
certain ATM assets in the United States described in
"Business--The Euronet Network--The United States" and
to fund operating losses and working capital needs.

Governing Law......... The Indenture and the Notes will be governed by the
laws of the State of New York.

Listing............... Application has been made to list the Notes on the
Luxembourg Stock Exchange.

SUMMARY CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA

With the exception of the summary consolidated financial data as of March 31,
1998 and for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1998, the summary
consolidated financial data set forth below have been derived from, and are
qualified by reference to, the audited consolidated financial statements of the
Company and the notes thereto, prepared in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles as applied in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"), which have
been audited by KPMG Polska Sp. z o.o., independent public accountants. The
consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 1996 and 1997, and for
each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1997 (the
"Consolidated Financial Statements"), and the independent auditors' report
thereon, are included elsewhere in this Prospectus. The summary consolidated
financial data as of March 31, 1998 and for the three months ended March 31,
1997 and 1998 have been derived from the unaudited interim financial statements
of the Company. In the opinion of the management of the Company, such unaudited
interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the
audited financial statements and contain all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of the financial position of the Company as of such date and the
results of operations for such periods. Operating results for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 are not indicative of the results that may be expected for
the full year. The Company believes that the period-to-period comparisons of
its financial results are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied
upon as an indication of future performance. The following information should
be read in conjunction with "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus.

(1) The year ended December 31, 1996, includes a one-time non-cash share

employee and management options. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and Note 9 to the Notes
to the Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this
Prospectus.
(2) Capital expenditures do not include $1,906,000, $4,189,000, $11,006,000,
$2,100,000 and $602,000 relating to ATMs acquired under capital lease
obligations during the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996, 1997, and the
three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1998, respectively.
(3) EBITDA consists of net loss before depreciation and amortization, interest
income, interest expense and income taxes. EBITDA is not a U.S. GAAP
measure and should not be considered as an indicator of the Company's
operating performance or as an alternative to U.S. GAAP measures of net
income (loss) or to cash flow from operations under U.S. GAAP as a measure
of liquidity. Management also believes that EBITDA is helpful to investors
as a measure of the Company's ability to service the debt. Management also
believes that EBITDA is helpful to investors, because EBITDA will be used
to determine compliance with certain covenants continued in the Indenture.
The terms excluded from EBITDA are significant components in understanding
and assessing the Company's financial performance.
(4) For all periods presented, the Company incurred net losses before taxes and
hence earnings to fixed charges indicate a less than one to one coverage.
For the period from June 22, 1994 (inception) to December 31, 1994, the
years ended December 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997, and the three months ended
March 31, 1997 and 1998, earnings were inadequate to cover fixed charges
with a coverage deficiency of $228,000, $2,089,000, $7,899,000, $8,065,000,
$941,000 and $3,647,000, respectively.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in the Notes involves a high degree of risk. Accordingly,
prospective purchasers should consider carefully all of the information set
forth in this Prospectus and, in particular, the risks described below, prior
to making any investment decision. This Prospectus contains certain forward-
looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Actual
results and the timing of certain events could differ materially from those
projected in the forward-looking statements due to a number of factors,
including those set forth below and elsewhere in this Prospectus. See
"Forward-Looking Statements."

SUBSTANTIAL INDEBTEDNESS; LIQUIDITY

The Company will have substantial indebtedness after the Offering. As of
March 31, 1998, after giving pro forma effect to the Offering and the
application of the net proceeds therefrom, the Company's total indebtedness
would be approximately $103.3 million, its stockholders' equity would be
approximately $46.0 million and the Company's total assets would be
approximately $154.8 million. The Indenture limits, but does not prohibit, the
Company and its subsidiaries from incurring additional indebtedness. See
"Description of Notes". The Company believes the net proceeds from the
Offering, together with its cash flows from operations and remaining proceeds
from the 1997 initial public offering (approximately $33.5 million at March
31, 1998), will be sufficient to fund the Company's operating losses, debt
service requirements and capital expenditures associated with its expansion
plan through the year 2000. However, there can be no assurance that the
Company will achieve or sustain profitability or generate sufficient revenues
in the future. If an opportunity to consummate a strategic acquisition arises
or if one or more new contracts is executed requiring more rapid installation
of ATM machines than anticipated or a significant increase in the number of
ATM machines in any market area, the Company may require additional financing
for such purpose and to fund its working capital needs. Such additional
financing may be in the form of additional indebtedness which would increase
the Company's overall leverage. See "--Significant Capital Requirements,"
"Selected Financial Data," "Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" and "Description of Notes."

The level of the Company's indebtedness could have important consequences to
holders of the Notes, including the following: (i) the Company may not be able
to generate sufficient cash flows to service the Notes and its other
outstanding indebtedness and to fund adequately its planned capital
expenditures and operations; (ii) the ability of the Company to obtain any
necessary financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures,
debt service requirements or other purposes may be limited or such financing
may be unavailable; (iii) a substantial portion of the Company's cash flows,
if any, must be dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on its
indebtedness and other obligations and will not be available for use in its
business; (iv) the Company's level of indebtedness could limit its flexibility
in planning for, or reacting to, changes in its business and markets; and (v)
the Company's high degree of indebtedness will make it more vulnerable to
changes in general economic conditions and a downturn in its business, thereby
making it more difficult for the Company to satisfy its obligations under the
Notes.

The Company must substantially increase its net cash flows in order to meet
its debt service obligations, including obligations under the Notes, and there
can be no assurance that the Company will be able to meet such obligations,
including its obligations under the Notes. If the Company is unable to
generate sufficient cash flows or otherwise obtain funds necessary to make
required payments or if it otherwise fails to comply with the various
covenants under its indebtedness, it would be in default under the terms
thereof, which would permit the holders of such indebtedness to accelerate the
maturity of such indebtedness and could cause defaults under other
indebtedness of the Company. Such defaults could result in a default on the
Notes and could delay or preclude payments of interest or principal thereon.
See "--Significant Capital Requirements."

LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY; HISTORICAL AND FUTURE OPERATING LOSSES AND NEGATIVE
CASH FLOW

The Company has had a limited operating history. For the period from June
22, 1994 (inception) to December 31, 1994, the years ended December 31, 1995,
1996 and 1997 and the three months ended March 31, 1998, the Company had net
losses of approximately $228,000, $1.9 million, $7.6 million, $8 million and
$3.6 million, respectively, resulting in an aggregate net loss of
approximately $21.3 million as of March 31, 1998.

17
<PAGE>

(The 1996 net loss includes a one-time non-cash stock compensation expense of
approximately $4.2 million relating to the grant of certain employee and
management options.) The Company expects to continue to generate losses from
operating activities, negative EBITDA and negative cash flow while it
concentrates on the expansion of its ATM network business. As a result of the
Company's strategy of continuing expansion and increasing its market share,
the Company's net losses are expected to increase. There can be no assurance
that the Company's revenues will grow or be sustained in future periods or
that the Company will be able to achieve or sustain profitability or positive
cash flow from operations in any future period. If the Company cannot achieve
and sustain operating profitability or positive cash flow from operations, it
may not be able to meet its debt service or working capital requirements,
including its obligations with respect to the Notes. See "Consolidated
Financial Statements" including the Notes thereto, and "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

HOLDING COMPANY STRUCTURE; RELIANCE ON SUBSIDIARIES FOR DISTRIBUTIONS TO REPAY
NOTES

The Company conducts all of its operations through its subsidiaries. The
Company's ability to service its indebtedness, including payment of principal
and interest on the Notes, is entirely dependent upon the receipt of funds
from its subsidiaries by way of dividends, intercompany loans, interest and
other permitted payments from such operating subsidiaries, as well as various
other business considerations. Each of these subsidiaries was formed under the
laws of, and has its operations in, a country other than the United States. In
addition, each of the Company's operating subsidiaries receives its revenues
in the local currency of the jurisdiction in which it is situated. As a
consequence, the Company's ability to obtain dividends or other distributions
is subject to, among other things, restrictions on dividends under applicable
local laws and foreign currency exchange regulations of the jurisdictions in
which its subsidiaries operate. See "--Inflation; Exchange Rate and Currency
Risk." The subsidiaries' ability to pay dividends, repay intercompany loans or
make other distributions to the Company are also subject to their having
sufficient funds from their operations legally available for the payment
thereof which are not needed to fund their operations, obligations or other
business plans and, in some cases, obtaining the approval of the creditors of
these entities. The laws under which the Company's operating subsidiaries are
organized provide generally that dividends may be declared out of yearly
profits subject to the maintenance of registered capital and required reserves
and after the recovery of accumulated losses. If the Company's subsidiaries
are unable to pay any such dividends, repay intercompany loans or make any
other such distributions to the Company, the Company's growth and its ability
to meet its obligations on the Notes may be inhibited.

Because the Company is a holding company that conducts its business through
its subsidiaries, claims of creditors of such subsidiaries may have priority
with respect to the assets of such subsidiaries over the claims of the Company
and the holders of the Company's indebtedness such as the Notes. Accordingly,
the Notes may effectively be subordinated to all existing and future
indebtedness and other liabilities and commitments of the Company's
subsidiaries, including trade payables. As of March 31, 1998, the Company's
subsidiaries had approximately $20 million of such liabilities including
approximately $15 million of indebtedness for money borrowed and capital lease
obligations. Any right of the Company to receive assets of any subsidiary upon
the liquidation or reorganization of such subsidiary (and the consequent
rights of the holders of the Notes to participate in those assets) will
effectively be subordinated to the claims of such subsidiary's creditors,
except to the extent that the Company is itself recognized as a creditor, in
which case the claims of the Company would still be subordinate to any
security in the assets of such subsidiary and any indebtedness of such
subsidiary senior to that held by the Company. The Company has no significant
assets other than the stock of its subsidiaries.

PRIORITY OF SECURED DEBT

The indenture under which the Notes are to be issued permits, among other
things, the Company to incur up to $55.0 million of (or to the extent not
denominated in U.S. dollars, the U.S. dollar equivalent thereof) indebtedness
to finance the acquisition of ATM Network assets and for working capital for
its ATM Network business or the grant of security for such indebtedness. In
addition, the indenture permits, among other things, the Company to incur up
to an aggregate of $200.0 million (or to the extent not denominated

18
<PAGE>

in U.S. dollars, the U.S. dollar equivalent thereof) of other indebtedness.
Following the application of the proceeds of the Offering, the Company's long
term debt exclusive of the Notes will be approximately $3.3 million. Following
the application of the proceeds of the Offering, the Company expects to
continue to use lease-financing to acquire additional ATM machines. The
incurrence of indebtedness under such finance leases is not restricted by the
indenture. The Notes will be effectively subordinated to such indebtedness and
any other existing or future secured indebtedness of the Company. In the event
of a default on the Notes or bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of the
Company, the assets of the Company subject to such security interests would
have to be made available to satisfy obligations of the secured debt of the
Company before any payment could be made on the Notes. Accordingly, there may
only be a limited amount of assets available to satisfy any claims of holders
of the Notes upon an acceleration or maturity of the Notes.

SIGNIFICANT CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

The development and expansion of the Company's ATM network and its ATM
management services operations in Hungary, Poland, Germany, the Czech
Republic, Croatia, France and other markets, and the resulting operating
losses will require substantial additional cash from outside sources. The
Company anticipates that its substantial cash requirements will continue into
the foreseeable future. Based on the Company's plans with respect to the
installation of ATMs and the provision of ATM management services in Hungary,
Poland, Germany, the Czech Republic, Croatia, France and other markets in the
near to medium term, and the Company's requirements with respect to related
infrastructure and operational costs, management believes the net proceeds
from the Offering will provide sufficient funds necessary for the Company to
expand its business as currently planned through the year 2000. There can be
no assurance, however, that additional financing will not be required. The
Indenture limits, but does not prohibit the Company and its subsidiaries from
incurring additional indebtedness, including indebtedness to fund working
capital and operating losses and for the acquisition of assets related to its
business. See "Description of the Notes-Certain Covenants." There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional required capital
on satisfactory terms or at all. If the Company is able to raise additional
funds through the incurrence of debt, and it does so, it would likely become
subject to additional restrictive financial covenants. Failure to obtain such
financing could result in the delay or abandonment of some or all of the
Company's acquisition, development and expansion plans and expenditures, which
could have a material adverse effect on its business. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--
Liquidity and Capital Resources."

RISKS RELATED TO RAPID EXPANSION OF BUSINESS

The continued rapid expansion and development of the Company's business will
depend on various factors including the demand for ATM services in the
Company's current target markets, the ability to locate appropriate ATM sites
and obtain necessary approvals for the installation of ATMs, the ability to
install ATMs in an efficient and timely manner, the expansion of the Company's
business into new countries as currently planned, entering into additional
card acceptance agreements with banks, the ability to obtain sufficient
numbers of ATMs on a timely basis and the availability of financing for such
expansion. In addition, such expansion may involve acquisitions which, if
made, could divert the resources and management time of the Company and
require integration with the Company's existing networks and services. The
Company's ability to manage effectively its rapid expansion will require it to
continue to implement and improve its operating, financial and accounting
systems and to expand, train and manage its employee base. The inability to
manage effectively its planned expansion could have a material adverse effect
on the Company's business, growth, financial condition and results of
operations. See "Business--Strategy."

DEPENDENCE ON RELATIONSHIPS WITH BANKS AND INTERNATIONAL CARD ORGANIZATIONS;
TERMINATION OF OTP CONTRACT

The Company's future growth depends on its ability to sign card acceptance
agreements with banks and International Card Organizations which allow the
Company's ATMs to accept credit and debit cards issued by such banks and
International Card Organizations as well as retaining and renewing such card
acceptance agreements, which generally provide for a two to five year term.
The Company's card acceptance agreements

19
<PAGE>

with banks generally include termination and/or renewal clauses, which provide
that either party may elect to terminate or not renew an agreement upon
completion of its term. In some cases, banks may terminate their contracts
with the Company by giving notice prior to the expiration of their terms.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to sign or
maintain the card acceptance agreements on terms and conditions acceptable to
the Company or that International Card Organizations will continue to permit
Euronet's ATMs to accept their credit and debit cards. The inability to
continue to sign or maintain such agreements or to continue to accept the
credit and debit cards of local banks and International Card Organizations at
its ATMs in the future could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, growth, financial condition and results of operations. See
"Business--Agreements with Card Issuers and International Card Organizations."

In January 1998, OTP notified the Company that it was terminating its
contract with Euronet effective as of July 27, 1998. OTP advised the Company
that it terminated the contract since it desired to promote the use of its own
ATM network. OTP also indicated that the Company selected ATM sites which OTP
believed to be in competition with OTP ATM sites and that the Company failed
to provide OTP with certain transaction reports on a timely basis. It should
be noted that the reporting failure had been corrected more than two months
prior to OTP's notice of termination. As a result of this termination the
Company will not have a direct connection with OTP and will not be able to
accept OTP proprietary bank cards and OTP will no longer act as the Company's
EUROPAY sponsor in Hungary. The Company will still be able to accept all OTP
issued VISA cards through its VISA gateway. The Company is negotiating a new
EUROPAY sponsorship arrangement with a bank to replace OTP as its EUROPAY
sponsor, and subject to final execution and implementation of that agreement,
the Company will still be able to accept all OTP issued EUROPAY cards through
its EUROPAY gateway. VISA and EUROPAY cards represent over 95% of the cards
issued by OTP. The Company's contract with OTP represented approximately 51%
of its consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 1997 and
approximately 26% of consolidated revenues for the three months ended March
31, 1998. The financial impact of the OTP contract termination is difficult to
assess and there can be no assurance that this termination will not have a
material adverse affect on the Company's financial condition and results of
operations. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations--General Overview."

DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL

The Company is dependent upon the services of certain of its executive
officers for the management of the Company and the implementation of its
strategy. Euronet's strategy and its implementation depend in large part on
the founders of the Company, in particular Michael Brown and Daniel Henry, and
their continued involvement in the Company in the future. Michael Brown, who
is involved in strategy, planning and establishing operational procedures,
resides in Leawood, Kansas and travels to Europe on a regular basis. Daniel
Henry, who supervises the Company's day-to-day operations currently resides in
Budapest, Hungary. Although Mr. Henry may relocate to Kansas City next year,
he will continue to be involved in the Company's operations and in view of the
Company's present geographic expansion plans will likely be responsible for
overseeing the Company's expansion to the South American or Asian markets. The
Company will employ a new executive officer to supervise the Company's day-to-
day operations prior to Mr. Henry's relocation. This new executive would
reside in Central Europe. The success of the Company also depends in part upon
its ability to hire and retain highly skilled and qualified operating,
marketing, financial and technical personnel. The competition for qualified
personnel in Central Europe and the other markets where the Company conducts
its business is intense and, accordingly, there can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to continue to hire or retain the required personnel.
Although the Company's officers and certain of its key personnel have entered
into service or employment agreements containing non-competition, non-
disclosure and non-solicitation covenants and providing for the granting of
incentive stock options with long-term vesting requirements, most of these
contracts do not guarantee that these individuals will continue their
employment with the Company. The loss of certain key personnel could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, growth, financial condition
and results of operations. See "Management."

DEPENDENCE ON ATM TRANSACTION FEES

Transaction fees from banks and International Card Organizations for
transactions processed on the Company's ATMs have historically accounted for a
significant portion of the Company's revenues. The Company expects that
revenues from ATM transaction fees will continue to account for a substantial
majority of its revenues for the foreseeable future. Consequently, the
Company's future operating results are almost entirely

20
<PAGE>

dependent on the increased issuance of credit and debit cards, increased
market acceptance of Euronet's services in its target markets, the maintenance
of the level of transaction fees received by the Company, installation by the
Company of larger numbers of ATMs and continued usage of the Company's ATMs by
credit and debit cardholders. A decline in usage of the Company's ATMs by ATM
cardholders or in the levels of fees received by the Company in connection
with such usage would have a material adverse impact on the Company's
business, growth financial condition and results of operations. Banks also
could elect to pass through to their customers all, or a large part of, the
fees charged by the Company for transactions on its ATMs. This would increase
the cost of using the Company's ATM machines to the bank's customers, which
may cause a decline in use of the Company's ATM machines and, thus, have an
adverse effect on revenues.

LEGAL CONSTRAINTS ON CONDUCTING BUSINESS IN GERMANY AND FRANCE; DEPENDENCE ON
FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS

Under German law, ATMs in Germany may be operated only by licensed financial
institutions. The Company, therefore, may not operate its own ATM network in
Germany and must act, under its contract with Service Bank GmbH ("Service
Bank"), as a subcontractor providing certain ATM-related services to Service
Bank. As a result, the Company's activities in the German market currently are
entirely dependent upon the continuance of the agreement with Service Bank, or
the ability to enter into a similar agreement with another bank in the event
of a termination of such contract. The inability to maintain such agreement or
to enter into a similar agreement with another bank upon a termination of the
agreement with Service Bank could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's operations in Germany.

The Company is considering expansion into France, whose laws relative to the
operation of ATMs are similar to those of Germany. Expansion into France would
require the Company to establish and thereafter maintain a relationship with
one or more French financial institutions. Although the Company has not yet
identified a French financial institution, it has retained a managing director
for France, and is exploring potential relationships with French financial
institutions and is searching for potential ATM locations. There can be no
assurance as to when or if the Company will be able to establish the necessary
relationship for the commencement of operations in France. See "Business--the
Euronet Network--Germany" and --"France" and "--Regulation."

COMPETITION

Principal competitors of the Company in markets outside the United States
include ATM networks owned by banks and regional networks consisting of
consortiums of local banks. In the U.S., principal competitors of the Company
would include individual banks operating proprietary ATM networks, shared bank
networks such as the Plus and Cirrus networks, independent, non-bank owned ATM
networks of varying sizes (ranging from a few ATMs to many thousands of ATMs)
and individual retail outlets operating ATMs. Large, well financed companies
may also establish ATM networks in competition with the Company in various
markets. Competitive factors in the Company's business include network
availability and response time, price to both the bank and to its customers,
ATM location and access to other networks. There can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to compete successfully in the future or that competition
will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, growth,
financial condition and results of operations. In addition, there can be no
assurance that Euronet's competitors will not introduce or expand their own
ATM networks in the future which could lead to a decline in the usage of
Euronet's ATMs. See "Business--Competition."

POLITICAL, ECONOMIC AND LEGAL RISKS

The Company's principal operating subsidiaries currently operate in Hungary,
Poland, the Czech Republic, Croatia and other countries in Central Europe.
These and other countries in Central Europe have undergone significant
political and economic change in recent years. Political, economic, social and
other developments in such countries may in the future have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business. In particular, changes in laws or
regulations (or in the interpretation of existing laws or regulations),
whether caused by change in the government of such countries or otherwise,
could materially adversely affect the Company's business, growth, financial
condition and results of operations. Currently there are no limitations on the
repatriation of profits from Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic,
Croatia and other countries in Central Europe, but there can be no assurance
that foreign exchange control restrictions,

21
<PAGE>

taxes or limitations will not be imposed or increased in the future with
regard to repatriation of earnings and investments from such countries. If
such exchange control restrictions, taxes or limitations are imposed, the
ability of the Company to receive dividends or other payments from its
subsidiaries could be reduced, which may have a material adverse effect on the
Company. See "Business--Government Regulation."

Prior to 1995 Croatia was involved in hostilities with Serbia and was also
involved in the hostilities in Bosnia-Herzegovina. The hostilities in Croatia
ended in a cease-fire in 1995 and the hostilities in Bosnia-Herzegovina ended
in the Dayton Accords in 1995. No assurance can be given that the cease fire
with Serbia will not be breached or that the peace process initiated by the
Dayton Accords will continue. Any breakdown in the peace process or any
failure of any of the relevant parties to abide by the cease-fire or the
provisions of the Dayton Accords or the relevant agreements could result in
the recommencement of hostilities in the region, which could have an adverse
effect on the Croatian economy or Euronet's operations in Croatia.

Annual inflation and interest rates in Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic,
Croatia and other countries in Central Europe have been much higher than those
in Western Europe. Exchange rate policies have not always allowed for the free
conversion of currencies at the market rate. Fluctuations of inflation,
interest and exchange rates could have an adverse effect on the Company's
business and the market value of the Shares.

Corporate, contract, property, insolvency, competition, securities and other
laws and regulations in Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic, Croatia and other
countries in Central Europe have been, and continue to be, substantially
revised during the completion of their transition to market economies.
Therefore, the interpretation and procedural safeguards of the new legal and
regulatory systems are in the process of being developed and defined and
existing laws and regulations may be applied inconsistently. Also, in some
circumstances, it may not be possible to obtain the legal remedies provided
for under those laws and regulations in a reasonably timely manner, if at all.
In addition, transmittal of data by electronic means and telecommunications is
subject to specific regulation in most Central European countries. Although
such regulations have not had a material impact on the Company's business to
date, there can be no assurance that any changes in such regulation, including
taxation or limitations on transfers of data across national borders, would
not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, growth,
financial condition and results of operations.

Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic, Croatia and other countries in Central
Europe generally are considered by international investors to be emerging
markets. There can be no assurance that political, economic, social and other
developments in these emerging markets will not have an adverse effect on the
Company's operations and profitability and, therefore, on the Company's
ability to pay principal and interest on the Notes.

INFLATION, EXCHANGE RATE AND CURRENCY RISK

The Company operates primarily in Central Europe and Germany and, as a
result, its business is affected by fluctuations in foreign exchange rates of
the various countries in which it operates. With the exception of Germany
where transaction fees are Deutche Mark denominated, transaction fees charged
by the Company are primarily denominated in U.S. dollars or denominated in
local currency and inflation adjusted. A significant amount of the Company's
expenditures in Central Europe, including the acquisition of ATMs and
executive salaries, are made in U.S. dollars.

Since the fall of Communist rule, both Hungary and Poland have experienced
high levels of inflation and significant fluctuation in the exchange rate for
their currencies. The Polish government has adopted policies that slowed the
annual rate of inflation from approximately 600% in 1990 to approximately 15%
in 1997. In addition, the exchange rate for the zloty has stabilized and the
rate of devaluation of the zloty has decreased significantly since 1991.
Similarly, in Hungary, the forint has continued to depreciate, principally by
way of devaluation, against the major currencies of the OECD and has limited
convertibility to other currencies. The inflation rate in Hungary was
approximately 18.0% in 1997.

The Company attempts to match any assets denominated in currencies other
than U.S. dollars with liabilities denominated in the same currencies.
Nonetheless inflation and currency exchange fluctuations have had, and will
continue to have, an effect on the financial condition and results of
operations of the Company. The Company anticipates that in the future a
substantial portion of its assets will be denominated in the foreign
currencies of

22
<PAGE>

each market. As exchange rates between these foreign currencies and the U.S.
dollar fluctuate, the translation effect of such fluctuations may have a
material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations or financial
condition as reported in U.S. dollars. See "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Foreign Exchange
Exposure" and "--Inflation and Functional Currencies."

In addition, fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Deutsche Mark and
the U.S. dollar will affect the U.S. dollar equivalent of both the Deutsche
Mark principal of and interest on the Notes. See "--Substitution of Currency."

SUBSTITUTION OF CURRENCY

Stage III of the European Economic and Monetary Union ("Stage III") is
presently anticipated to commence on January 1, 1999 for those member states
of the European Union that satisfy the convergence criteria set forth in the
Treaty on European Union. Part of Stage III is the introduction of a single
currency (the "Euro") in substitution for the national currencies of such
member states. Although there can be no assurance that the Euro will be
adopted or, if adopted, on what time schedule, if Germany adopts the Euro, the
regulations of the European Commission relating to the Euro shall apply to the
Notes and the Indenture. In addition, it is anticipated that such member
states will adopt legislation providing specific rules for the introduction of
the Euro. The adoption of the Euro is not expected to alter the rights and
obligations of the Company or the holders of the Notes under the Notes and the
Indenture. See "Description of the Notes--Substitution of Currency".

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

The Company has made an assessment of the impact of the advent of the year
2000 on its systems and operations. The Processing Center will require certain
upgrades which have been ordered and are scheduled for installation by the
fourth quarter of 1998. Most of the ATMs in the Euronet network are not year
2000 compliant, and hardware and software upgrades will be installed under
contracts with the Company's ATM maintenance vendors. According to the
Company's current estimates, the cost will be approximately $1,000 per ATM,
and the required installation will be finished by the end of 1998. The Company
estimates that approximately 560 of its ATMs will require upgrades for year
2000 compliance.

The Company is currently planning a survey of its bank customers concerning
the compliance of their back office card authorization systems with year 2000
requirements, and anticipates launching such survey in the third quarter of
1998. If the Company's bank customers do not bring their card authorization
systems into compliance with year 2000 requirements, the Company may be unable
to process transactions on cards issued by such banks and may lose revenues
from such transactions. This could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's revenues.

ABSENCE OF A PRIOR PUBLIC MARKET

Prior to this Offering, there has been no public market for the Notes and
there can be no assurance that an active trading market will develop or be
sustained in the future. There may be significant volatility in the market
price of the Notes due to factors that may or may not relate to the Company's
performance. Application has been made to list the Notes on the Luxembourg
Stock Exchange, although the liquidity of the market, if any, achieved through
such listing may be limited. There can be no assurance that such application
to the Luxembourg Stock Exchange will be approved or that the Company will be
able to meet or continue to meet, the applicable listing requirements of the
Luxembourg Stock Exchange or any other recognized exchange. The Underwriter
has advised the Company that it currently intends to make a market in the
Notes but it is not obliged to do so and may discontinue market making
activities at any time. If a market for the Notes were to develop, the Notes
could trade at prices that may be lower than the initial offering price and
could be significantly affected by various factors including actual and
anticipated period-to-period fluctuations in the Company's operating results,
changes in currency exchange rates and other external factors, including
general economic conditions in Hungary, Poland, Germany, the Czech Republic
and Croatia and the Company's other markets or other events or factors. See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations."

The liquidity of, and trading market for, the Notes may also be adversely
affected by general declines in the market for similar securities. Such a
decline may adversely affect such liquidity and trading markets independent of
the financial performance of, and prospects for, the Company.

23
<PAGE>

ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT

The Notes will be issued at a substantial discount from their principal
amount at maturity. Consequently, United States holders of the Notes generally
will be required to include amounts in gross income for U.S. Federal income
tax purposes in advance of receipt of the cash payments to which the income is
attributable. If a bankruptcy case is commenced by or against the Company
under the United States Bankruptcy Code after the issuance of the Notes, the
claim of a holder of Notes may be limited to an amount equal to the sum of (i)
the initial public offering price for the Notes and (ii) that portion of the
original issue discount that is not deemed to constitute "unmatured interest"
for purposes of the United States Bankruptcy Code. Any original discount that
was not amortized as of the date of the commencement of any such bankruptcy
filing would constitute "unmatured interest."

ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS

Certain provisions of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation (the
"Certificate of Incorporation") and By-Laws (the "By-Laws") and of Delaware
law could discourage potential acquisition proposals and could delay or impede
a change in control of the Company. These provisions, among other things: (i)
classify the Company's Board of Directors into three classes serving staggered
three-year terms; (ii) permit the Board of Directors, without further
stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock; and (iii) prohibit the Company
from engaging in a business combination (as such term is defined in the
Delaware law) with interested shareholders, except under certain
circumstances. Such provisions could diminish the opportunities for a
stockholder to participate in tender offers, including tender offers at a
price above the then current market value of the Common Stock. The issuance of
preferred stock could also adversely affect the voting power of the holders of
Common Stock. The Company has no present plans to issue any preferred stock.
See "Description of Capital Stock--Certain Provisions of the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws" and "--Preferred Stock." Directors,
officers and certain significant shareholders of the Company, which are
associated with certain directors of the Company, own beneficially in the
aggregate approximately 64% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock in the
Company. Such concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying or
preventing transactions involving an actual or potential change in control of
the Company. See "Principal Stockholders" and "Description of Capital Stock."
The Indenture pursuant to which the Notes are issued contains a provision
which accelerates the maturity date of the Notes in the event of a change of
control. Such provision may also delay or impede a change of control. See
"Description of Notes".

CURRENCY FLUCTUATION

Each interest payment on the Notes and principal payments at maturity will
be paid by the Company to the Paying Agents in Deutsche Marks. Residents of
the United States who have a beneficial interest in the DTC Global Note (a
"DTC Noteholder") will receive payment from the U.S. Paying Agent in U.S.
Dollars unless such holder requests payment in Deutsche Marks. The request
must be delivered to the U.S. Paying Agent at least two business days prior to
the Payment Date. The U.S. Paying Agent will convert the Deutsche Marks into
U.S. Dollars at the then prevailing foreign currency exchange rates and deduct
the costs of such conversion from the amounts otherwise payable to the DTC
Noteholders. As a result, a DTC Noteholder will have exposure to currency
fluctuations particularly with respect to the U.S. Dollar and such
fluctuations, together with the costs of converting Deutsche Marks to U.S.
Dollars, could significantly reduce the DTC Noteholders' yield on the Notes.
Non-U.S. residents are also subject to currency fluctuations since they will
receive payment in Deutsche Marks and will be responsible for converting the
Deutsche Marks into the foreign currency of their choice. See "Description of
the Notes--Form of Notes", "--Payment Currency" and "--Description of Book
Entry System; Payment; Transfers".

CONCENTRATION OF VOTING CONTROL IN MANAGEMENT

The directors and officers of the Company, together with entities in which
they are associated, beneficially owned and controlled approximately 64% of
the Company's outstanding Common Stock at March 31, 1998. As a consequence,
the directors and officers have significant control over the Company's
direction and operation, including the ability to elect all of the directors
of the Company and to cast the majority of the votes with respect to virtually
all matters submitted to a vote of the Company's stockholders. Such
concentration of control may have the effect of delaying or preventing
transactions or potential change of control of the Company. See "Principal
Stockholders."

USE OF PROCEEDS

The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the Notes being offered by
the Company hereby, after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated
offering expenses, are estimated to be approximately $96.7 million (based on a
Dollar--Deutsche Mark exchange rate of DM 1.77 = $1.00, the noon buying rate
in New York City for cable transfers in Deutsche Marks as certified for
customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the "Noon Buying
Rate") on May 8, 1998).

The Company currently intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering,
together with the existing cash reserves of approximately $33.5 million at
March 31, 1998, as follows: (i) approximately $60 to $70 million to expand its
ATM network in its existing markets of Hungary, Poland, Germany, the Czech
Republic, Croatia, and planned future markets such as France and Romania,
including the purchase and installation of an aggregate of approximately 2,000
ATM machines in such markets through the year ending December 31, 1999; (ii)
to repay approximately $11.2 million of the $14.4 million total outstanding of
the Company's capitalized lease obligations at March 31, 1998 which have an
effective interest rate of approximately 13.5% per annum and (iii) the
remainder will be used for general corporate purposes, including expansion
into new markets, expanding the provision of ATM management services, the
pursuit of possible strategic acquisition and joint venture opportunities
consistent with the Company's strategy of expanding its ATM network including
a possible acquisition of certain ATM assets in the United States described in
"Business--The Euronet Network--The United States" and to fund operating
losses and working capital needs.

Pending utilization of the net proceeds from the Offering, the Company
intends to invest such proceeds primarily in short-term interest-bearing
securities issued by the U.S. Federal Government or agencies or
instrumentalities thereof.

CAPITALIZATION

The following table sets forth the actual capitalization of the Company on a
consolidated basis at March 31, 1998 and as adjusted to reflect the completion
of the Offering and the receipt and application of the estimated net proceeds
therefrom. See "Use of Proceeds" and "Description of the Notes." Except as
described in this Prospectus, there has been no material change in the
Company's capitalization since March 31, 1998.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL OVERVIEW

The Company was formed and established its first office in Budapest
(Hungary) in June 1994. In May 1995, the Company opened its second office, in
Warsaw (Poland). During 1997 the Company also opened offices in Berlin
(Germany), Zagreb (Croatia), Prague (the Czech Republic), Paris (France) and
Bucharest (Romania). To date, Euronet has devoted substantially all of its
resources to establishing its ATM network through the acquisition and
installation of ATMs and computers and software for its transaction processing
center and through the marketing of its services to local banks as well as
International Card Organizations. Euronet installed its first ATM in Hungary
in June 1995, and at the end of 1995, the Company had 53 ATMs installed. An
additional 113 ATMs were installed during 1996 in Hungary and Poland and as of
December 31, 1996, the Company's ATM network consisted of 166 ATMs. During
1997, the Company installed 527 ATMs, consisting of 472 in Hungary and Poland
and 55 in Germany and Croatia. During the first three months of 1998, a
further 105 ATMs were added to the network consisting of 56 in Hungary and
Poland and 41 in Germany and Croatia. In addition, 8 ATMs were installed in
the Czech Republic. As of March 31, 1998 the Company had 194 employees
consisting of 87 people in Hungary, 73 in Poland, 11 in Croatia, 10 in
Germany, 7 in the Czech Republic, 4 in Romania and 2 in France. In 1997, 99%
of the Company's revenues were generated in Hungary and Poland. For the three
months ended March 31, 1998, 92% of the Company's revenue was generated in
Hungary and Poland, and 8% in Germany and Croatia. The Company's expansion of
its network infrastructure and administrative and marketing capabilities has
resulted in increased expenditures. Further planned expansion will continue to
result in increases in general operating expenses as well as expenses related
to the acquisition and installation of ATMs.

The Company has derived substantially all of its revenues from ATM
transaction fees since inception. The Company receives a fee from the card
issuing banks or International Card Organizations for ATM transactions
processed on its ATMs. As the Company continues to focus on expanding its
network and installing additional ATMs, the Company expects that transaction
fees will continue to account for a substantial majority of its revenues for
the foreseeable future. The Company's existing contracts with banks and
International Card Organizations provide for reduced transaction fees with
increases in transaction volume. As the Company's transaction levels continue
to increase, the average fee it receives per transaction will decrease.
However, the Company expects that because the decrease in transaction fees is
tied to an increase in transactional volume, the overall revenues of the
Company should increase despite the fee discounts. However, the Company
expects that transaction levels may, however, be negatively impacted if all or
a large part of the transaction fees are passed on to cardholders by client
banks.

The transaction volumes processed on an ATM in any given market are affected
by a number of factors, including location of the ATM and the amount of time
the ATM has been installed at the location. The Company's experience has been
that the number of transactions on a newly installed ATM is initially very low
and takes approximately three to six months after installation to achieve
average transaction volumes for that market. Accordingly, the average number
of transactions, and thus revenues, per ATM are expected to increase as the
percentage of ATMs operating in the Company's network for over six months
increases.

The Company recently began to sell advertising on its network by putting
clients' advertisements on its ATMs and on transaction receipts. In addition,
the Company also began to generate revenues during 1997 from ATM network
management services that it offers to banks that own proprietary ATM networks.
Although the revenues generated to date have been small, the Company believes
that revenues from these services will increase in the future.

The Company has had substantial increases in the level of operations,
including ATMs operated and total personnel in 1995, 1996, 1997 and the first
three months of 1998. In addition, the Company was in the development stage
until June 1995 when it began operations in Hungary. As a result, a comparison
of the Company's results of operations between such periods is not necessarily
meaningful.

The Company's expenses consist of ATM operating expenses and other operating
expenses. ATM operating expenses are generally variable in nature and consist
primarily of ATM site rentals, depreciation of ATMs, ATM installation costs,
maintenance, telecommunications, insurance, and cash delivery and security
services to ATMs.

29
<PAGE>

ATM operating expenses will necessarily increase as the Company's network
expands. Other operating expenses consist of items such as salaries,
professional fees, communication and travel related expenditures. While these
expenditures are anticipated to increase with the Company's expansion into new
markets and the introduction of new products, other operating expenses are
expected to decrease as a percentage of total revenues.

In January 1998 OTP notified the Company that it was terminating its
contract with the Company effective as of July 27, 1998. OTP advised the
Company that it terminated the contract since it desired to promote the use of
its own ATM network. OTP also indicated that the Company selected ATM sites
which OTP believed to be in competition with OTP ATM sites and that the
Company failed to provide OTP with certain transaction reports on a timely
basis. It should be noted that the reporting failure had been corrected more
than two months prior to OTP's notice of termination. As a result of this
termination, the Company will not have a direct connection with OTP and will
not be able to accept OTP proprietary bank cards and OTP will no longer act as
the Company's EUROPAY sponsor in Hungary. The Company will still be able to
accept all OTP issued VISA cards through its VISA gateway. The Company is
negotiating a new EUROPAY sponsorship arrangement with a bank to replace OTP
as its EUROPAY sponsor, and subject to final execution and implementation of
that agreement, the Company will still be able to accept all OTP issued
EUROPAY cards through its EUROPAY gateway. For the year ended December 31,
1997, the Company's contract with OTP represented approximately 51% of its
consolidated revenues and approximately 26% for the three months ended March
31, 1998. The financial impact of the OTP contract termination is difficult to
assess. The Company believes that such impact may be mitigated in part because
(i) the Company believes that VISA and EUROPAY cards represent over 95% of the
cards issued by OTP and (ii) the Company receives a higher fee for
transactions processed through its VISA and EUROPAY gateway(s) than for OTP
proprietary bank cards. However, the Company believes that some of OTP's
cardholders may be dissuaded from patronizing Euronet's ATMs due to the higher
fees passed through to customers for transactions processed through the VISA
and EUROPAY connection.

COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998
TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997

Revenues. Total revenues increased to $2,001,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 from $795,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997. The
increase was due primarily to the significant increase in transaction fees
resulting from the increase in transaction volume attributable to additional
network connections to credit and debit card issuers and an increase in the
number of ATMs operated by the Company during the first quarter of 1998. The
Company had 798 ATMs in operation as of March 31, 1998 compared with 227 ATMs
as of March 31, 1997. Transaction fee revenue represented approximately 94% of
total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1998, and 89% for the
three months ended March 31, 1997.

Transaction fees charged by the Company vary for the three types of
transactions that are currently processed on the Company's ATMs: cash
withdrawals, balance inquiries and transactions not completed because
authorization is not given by the relevant Card Issuer. Approximately 95% of
transaction fees for the three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to 78% for
the three months ended March 31, 1997, were attributable to cash withdrawals.
The remaining transactions were attributable to balance inquiries and
transactions not completed because authorization is not given by the relevant
Card Issuer. Transaction fees for cash withdrawals vary from market to market
but generally range from $0.60 to $1.75 per transaction while transaction fees
for the other two types of transactions are generally substantially less.

Other revenues, which consisted primarily of advertising revenues, were
$125,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to $86,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1997. Other revenue consisted primarily of
advertising revenue. The increase results from the increase in the number of
ATMs operated by the Company.

Operating expenses. Total operating expenses for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 were $5,653,000 compared to $1,700,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1997. This increase was due primarily to costs associated with
the expansion of the Company's operations and an increase in the number of
ATMs installed.

ATM operating costs, which consist primarily of ATM site rentals,
depreciation of ATMs and costs associated with maintaining and providing
telecommunications and cash delivery services to ATMs increased to $2,472,000
for the three months ended March 31, 1998 from $688,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 as a result of the increase in the number of ATMs
installed.

30
<PAGE>

ATM operating costs, as a percentage of revenue, increased to 124% for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 from 86% for the three months ended March
31, 1997. This increase in ATM operating costs as a percentage of revenue is
due primarily to the increase in the ATM network in the previous six months.
Approximately 250 ATMs of the current 798 ATMs, or 30%, have been installed in
the last six months. During the initial six months of operation each ATM
installed incurs full ATM costs while transaction levels are below each
market's average. The high percentage of ATMs in the network that have been
installed for less than six months has resulted in a larger increase in ATM
operating costs than corresponding revenues.

Professional fees for the three months ended March 31, 1998 were $348,000
compared to $104,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997. The fees,
primarily legal, increased due to expansion into new markets.

Salaries increased to $1,717,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998
from $580,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 as a result of the
increase in the number of employees from 81 as of March 31, 1997 to 194 as of
March 31, 1998.

Communication, Rent and Utilities, and Travel related costs were $764,000
for the three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to $215,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997. The increase relates to the expansion of the
Company's operations, as previously discussed.

For the three months ended March 31, 1998 the Company had a foreign exchange
gain of $174,000 compared with $169,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1997. Exchange gains and losses that result from remeasurement of assets and
liabilities are recorded in determining net loss. A substantial portion of the
assets and liabilities of the Company are denominated in U.S. dollars,
including, for instance, fixed assets, stockholders' equity and capital lease
obligations. Additionally, it is the Company's policy to attempt to match
local currency receivables and payables. Hence, the amount of unmatched assets
and liabilities giving rise to foreign exchange gains and losses is relatively
limited, consisting mostly of cash and cash equivalents. The Company has
invested in German mark denominated government securities as a hedge against
certain German mark denominated lease obligations. From January 1, 1998 the
functional currency in Poland is the Polish zloty replacing the US dollar.

Other operating expenses, which include marketing, depreciation of non-ATM
related assets, and insurance, were $383,000 for the three months ended March
31, 1998 compared to $188,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997. This
increase is in line with the expansion of the Company's operations into new
and existing markets.

Other income/expense. Interest income was $461,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 compared to $75,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1997. The increase in 1998 was the result of the investments made by the
Company in U.S. State and Municipal obligations, corporate debentures, U.S.
Federal Agency and foreign government obligations using the proceeds from the
1997 equity offering. The amount held under such investments at March 31, 1998
was $21,825,000 compared to $6,944,000 at March 31, 1997.

Interest expense relating principally to capital leases of ATMs and
Euronet's computer systems was $456,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1998 compared to $111,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997. This
increase was due primarily to the increase of capital lease obligations
outstanding.

Net loss. The Company's net loss was $3,647,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 compared to $815,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997.
This increase was as a result of the factors discussed above.

COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995,
1996 AND 1997

Revenues. Total revenues increased to $5,290,000 for the year ended December
31, 1997 from $1,261,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996 and $62,000 for
the year ended December 31, 1995. The increase in revenues both in 1997 and
1996 were due primarily to the significant increase in transaction fees
resulting from the increase in transaction volume attributable to additional
network connections to credit and debit card issuers and an increase in the
number of ATMs operated by the Company during these periods. The Company had
53 ATMs, 166 ATMs and 693 ATMs installed at the end of 1995, 1996, and 1997,
respectively. Transaction fee

31
<PAGE>

revenue represented approximately 87% of total revenues for the year ended
December 31, 1997 and 95% of total revenues for the year ended December 31,
1996. Revenues in the year ended December 31, 1995 consisted entirely of
transaction fees.

Transaction fees charged by the Company vary for the three types of
transactions that are currently processed on the Company's ATMs: cash
withdrawals, balance inquiries and transactions not completed because
authorization is not given by the relevant Card Issuer. Approximately 97% of
transaction fees in 1997, as compared to 96% in 1996, were attributable to
cash withdrawals. The remaining transactions were attributable to balance
inquiries and transactions not completed because authorization is not given by
the relevant Card Issuer. Transaction fees for cash withdrawals vary from
market to market but generally range from $0.60 to $1.75 per transaction while
transaction fees for the other two types of transactions are generally
substantially less.

Other revenues of $663,000 and $63,000 for the years ended December 31, 1997
and 1996 consisted primarily of advertising revenue. The increase during 1997
results from the increase in the number of ATMs operated by the Company. There
were no other revenues in 1995.

Operating expenses. Total expenses increased to $13,812,000 for the year
ended December 31, 1997 from $9,007,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996
and from $2,170,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995. This increase in
both years was due primarily to costs associated with the installation of
significant numbers of ATMs during the periods and expansion of the Company's
operations during the periods. In addition a share compensation expense of
$4,172,000 relating to the grant of certain employee and management options
was charged to operating expenses in 1996.

ATM operating costs, which consist primarily of ATM site rentals,
depreciation of ATMs and costs associated with maintaining, providing
telecommunications and cash delivery services to ATMs increased to $5,172,000
for the year ended December 31, 1997 from $1,176,000 for the year ended
December 31, 1996 and from $510,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995. The
percentage of ATM operating costs to total operating expenses for the year
ended December 31, 1997 increased to 37% as compared to 13% for the year ended
December 31, 1996 (adjusting for the effect of the one-time non-cash share
compensation expense of $4,172,000 with respect to the grant of certain
employee and management options, the percentage would have been 24%), and 24%
for the year ended December 31, 1995. The increase in ATM operating costs was
primarily attributable to costs associated with operating the increased number
of ATMs in the network during the periods. The number of ATMs installed
increased from 53 to 166 from December 31, 1995 to December 31, 1996, and from
166 to 693 from December 31, 1996 to December 31, 1997.

Professional fees increased to $1,166,000 for the year ended December 31,
1997 from $1,125,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996 and from $394,000
for the year ended December 31, 1995. The fees in 1997, primarily legal,
related to its expansion to new markets. The level of fees in 1996 was due
primarily to legal fees attributable to the investment by new investors in the
Company, the interim reorganization of the Company into a Netherlands Antilles
Company and the expansion of the Company's operations into Poland.

Salaries increased to $3,796,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997 from
$989,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996 and from $452,000 for the year
ended December 31, 1995. The increase from 1995 to 1996 reflected the increase
in employees from 31 to 57 and the increase from 1996 to 1997 reflected the
increase in the number of employees from 57 to 178, as discussed above.

Communication, Rent and Utilities, and Travel related costs increased to
$818,000, $783,000, and $701,000 respectively for the year ended December 31,
1997 from $263,000, $290,000, and $254,000 for the year ended December 31,
1996, and $20,000, $112,000, and $71,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995.
The increases in all cases relate to the expansion of the Company's operations
in both years, as previously discussed.

Fees and charges increased to $458,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997
from $427,000 and $112,000 for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. These costs include $207,000 and $76,000, respectively, of
expenses which the Company has recorded relating to the late payments of
customs duties and Hungarian value added taxes in connection with the
restructuring of its ATM leases in Hungary. Prior to any

32

such restructuring, such leases were structured as operating leases for
Hungarian accounting purposes (although treated as capital leases for U.S.
GAAP purposes), and its ATMs have therefore been imported under a temporary
import arrangement. The ATMs are subject to a "re-export" requirement and this
has the effect of postponing payment of customs duties. The Company has
decided to restructure such lease arrangements as capital leases for Hungarian
accounting purposes, and the Company recorded the related charges as other
expenses. Customs duties have been capitalized as part of the cost of the ATMs
under capital lease and depreciated over the useful lives of the ATMs.

Share compensation of $4,172,000, with respect to the grant of certain
employee and management options, was recorded in 1996. The non-cash charge,
calculated in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
represents the difference between the estimated fair market value of the
Shares underlying such options at the date of option grant and the exercise
price. Estimated fair market value at the grant dates in the last quarter of
1996 was assumed to be the cash price for the sale of Shares in the next
succeeding third party purchase of Shares, which accrued in February 1997.
With respect to these options, an additional $343,000 is being amortized over
the remaining vesting period of such options. Of this amount, $108,000 has
been expensed during the year ended December 31, 1997. See Note 9 to the
Company's Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this
Prospectus.

The Company had a net foreign exchange gain of $8,000 for the year ended
December 31, 1997, and net foreign exchange losses of $79,000, and $158,000,
during the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Exchange
gains and losses that result from remeasurement of assets and liabilities are
recorded in determining net loss. See Note 2(c) to the Company's Consolidated
Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Prospectus. A substantial
portion of the assets and liabilities of the Company are denominated in U.S.
dollars, including, for instance, fixed assets, stockholders' equity and
capital lease obligations. Additionally, it is the Company's policy to attempt
to match local currency receivables and payables. Hence, the amount of
unmatched assets and liabilities giving rise to foreign exchange gains and
losses is relatively limited, consisting mostly of cash and cash equivalents.
The Company has invested in German mark denominated government securities as a
hedge against certain German mark denominated lease obligations.

Other operating expenses, which include marketing, depreciation of non-ATM
related assets, and insurance, increased to $818,000 for the year ended
December 31, 1997 from $232,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996 and
$341,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995. These increases were in line
with the expansion of the Company's operations during such periods. The
increase of $586,000 in 1997 over 1996 results primarily from the expansion
into new and existing markets.

Other income/expense. Interest income increased to $1,609,000 for the year
ended December 31, 1997 from $225,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996 and
$126,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995. The increase in 1997 was the
result of the investments made by the Company in U.S. State and Municipal
obligations, Corporate debentures, U.S. Federal Agency and foreign government
obligations using the proceeds from the 1997 equity offering. The amount held
under such investments at December 31, 1997 was $31,944,000 compared to
$194,000 at December 31, 1996. During 1996 the increase was due to larger
amounts held in interest bearing accounts, including restricted cash held as
security for certain of the Company's vendors, banks supplying cash to
Euronet's ATMs and certain other parties. See "--Liquidity and Capital
Resources."

Interest expense relating principally to capital leases of ATMs and
Euronet's computer systems increased to $1,152,000 during the year ended
December 31, 1997 from $378,000 during the year ended December 31, 1996 and
$107,000 during the year ended December 31, 1995. This increase was due
primarily to the increase of capital lease obligations outstanding during the
periods.

Net loss. The Company's net loss increased to $7,965,000 during the year
ended December 31, 1997 from $7,576,000 during the year ended December 31,
1996 and $1,941,000 during the year ended December 31, 1995 as a result of the
factors discussed above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Since its inception, the Company has sustained negative cash flows from
operations and has financed its operations and capital expenditures primarily
through the proceeds from the 1997 equity offering, through equipment lease
financing and through private placements of equity securities. The net
proceeds of such transactions, together with revenues from operations and
interest income have been used to fund aggregate net losses of approximately
$21,357,000 and investments in property, plant and equipment. The Company had
cash and cash equivalents of $11,703,000 and working capital of $28,174,000 at
March 31, 1998. At March 31, 1998, the Company had $1,168,000 of restricted
cash held as security with respect to cash provided by banks participating in
Euronet's ATM network, to cover guarantees to a customer and as deposits with
customs officials. The Company expects to continue to generate losses from
operating activities, and negative cash flow while it concentrates on the
expansion of its ATM network business. As a result of the Company's strategy
of continuing expansion and increasing its market share, the Company's net
losses are expected to increase. There can be no assurance that the Company's
revenues will grow or be sustained in future periods or that the Company will
be able to achieve or sustain profitability or positive cash flow from
operations in any future period. If the Company cannot achieve and sustain
operating profitability or positive cash flow from operations, it may not be
able to meet its debt service or working capital requirements including its
obligation with respect to the Notes. See "Risk Factors--Limited Operating
History; Historical and Future Operating Losses and Negative Cash Flow."

The Company leases the majority of its ATMs under capital lease arrangements
that expire between 1999 and 2002. The leases bear interest between 11% and
15%. As of March 31, 1998 the Company owed $14,424,000 under such capital
lease arrangements. The Company anticipates using approximately $10,000,000 to
$12,000,000 of the proceeds from the Offering to repay a significant portion
of the amounts outstanding under such lease arrangements.

At March 31, 1998, the Company had contractual capital commitments of
approximately $4 million. The Company expects that its capital requirements
will increase in the future as it pursues its strategy of expanding its
network and increase the number of installed ATMs. The Company anticipates
that its capital expenditures for the 12 months ending December 31, 1998 will
total approximately $30 million, primarily in connection with the acquisition
of ATMs, scheduled capital lease payments on existing lease obligations, and
related installation costs. Aggregate capital expenditures for 1998 and 1999
for such purposes are expected to reach approximately $60-70 million in its
existing markets which assumes the installation of approximately 2,000
additional ATMs over the next two years in accordance with the Company's
current strategy. These requirements contemplate both planned expansion in
Hungary, Poland, Germany, Croatia, the Czech Republic and certain other
European markets. Acquisitions of related businesses in Europe and other
markets in furtherance of the Company's strategy may require additional
capital expenditures.

The Company believes the net proceeds from the Offering, together with its
cash flows from operations and remaining proceeds from the 1997 equity
offering, will be sufficient to fund the company's operating losses, debt
service requirements and capital expenditures associated with its expansion
plans through the year 2000. There can be no assurance, however, that the
Company will achieve or sustain profitability or generate significant revenues
in the future. It is possible that the Company may seek additional equity or
debt financing in the future.

The level of the Company's indebtedness could have important consequences to
holders of the Notes, including the following: (i) the Company may not be able
to generate sufficient cash flows to service the Notes and its other
outstanding indebtedness and to fund adequately its planned capital
expenditures and operations; (ii) the ability of the Company to obtain any
necessary financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures,
debt service requirements or other purposes may be limited or such financing
may be unavailable; (iii) a substantial portion of the Company's cash flow, if
any, must be dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on its
indebtedness and other obligations and will not be available for use in its
business; (iv) the Company's level of indebtedness could limit its flexibility
in planning for, or reacting to, changes in its business and markets; and (v)
the Company's high degree of indebtedness will make it more vulnerable to
changes in general economic conditions and a downturn in its business, thereby
making it more difficult for the Company to satisfy its obligations under the
Notes.

BALANCE SHEET ITEMS

Cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents has increased to
$11,703,000 at March 31, 1998 from $7,516,000 at December 31, 1997 due to the
receipt of proceeds from the maturity of investment securities during the
period.

The increase of cash and cash equivalents to $7,516,000 at December 31, 1997
from $2,541,000 at December 31, 1996 is due also to receipt of proceeds from
the maturity of investment securities during the period and to the expansion
of operations in the countries where the Company operated in 1996 and the new
countries in which the Company has commenced operations in 1997.

Cash and cash equivalents increased from $411,000 at December 31, 1995 to
$2,541,000 at December 31, 1996 due primarily to the subscription for shares
by certain shareholders on March 27, 1996.

Restricted Cash. Restricted cash increased to $1,168,000 at March 31, 1998
from $847,000 at December 31, 1997 due to expansion of the Company's
operations and consequently an increased requirement for cash in the ATMs.

Restricted cash increased from $152,000 at December 31, 1996 to $847,000 at
December 31, 1997 due to the expansion of operations in the countries where
the Company operated, and was also attributable to a lease deposit.

Restricted cash decreased from $180,000 at December 31, 1995 to $152,000 at
December 31, 1996, and investment securities increased from none at December
31, 1995 to $194,000 at December 31, 1996.

Investment Securities. Investment securities decreased to $21,825,000 at
March 31, 1998 from $31,944,000 at December 31, 1997 as the proceeds from
maturity of securities were being used to fund operations of the Company.

The increase in the investment securities from $194,000 at December 31, 1996
to $31,944,000 at December 31, 1997 was due to the investment of proceeds from
the 1997 equity offering not currently used in funding the Company's
operations.

Property, plant and equipment. Total property, plant and equipment increased
from $26,439,000 at December 31, 1997 to $28,524,000 at March 31, 1998. This
increase is due primarily to the installation of 105 ATMs during the first
quarter of 1998 and expenditure on computer and software, and office equipment
and vehicles for the new operations.

35
<PAGE>

Total property, plant and equipment increased from $7,906,000 at December
31, 1996 to $26,439,000 at December 31, 1997. This increase is due primarily
to the installation of 527 ATMs during 1997. The increase in total property,
plant and equipment from $2,656,000 at December 31, 1995 to $7,906,000 at
December 31, 1996 is due primarily to the installation of 113 ATMs in 1996.

Deposits for ATM leases. Deposits for ATM leases increased from $2,542,000
at December 31, 1997 to $2,549,000 at March 31, 1998. The marginal increase is
due to the low numbers of new leases entered into during the first three
months of 1998.

Deposits for ATM leases increased from $666,000 at December 31, 1996 to
$2,542,000 at December 31, 1997 as a result of the Company's expansion. Lease
deposits at December 31, 1995 were $772,000.

Obligations under capital leases. Obligations under capital leases slightly
decreased to $14,424,000 at March 31, 1998 from $14,470,000 at December 31,
1997 as a result of repayments exceeding new leases entered into during the
first three months of 1998.

In connection with the increase of property, plant and equipment,
obligations under capital leases increased from $384,000 at December 31, 1995
to $4,471,000 at December 31, 1996 to $14,470,000 at December 31, 1997. The
majority of the 482 ATMs installed in 1997 and the 166 ATMs installed in 1995
and 1996 were financed under capital leases.

Trade accounts payable. Trade accounts payable decreased from $4,420,000 at
December 31, 1997 to $4,149,000 at March 31, 1998. This decrease is due
primarily to the more timely settlement of payables in the first quarter.

Trade accounts payable increased from $1,670,000 at December 31, 1996 to
$4,420,000 at December 31, 1997. These increases are due primarily to the
significant increase in operations in 1997, including approximately $2,000,000
related to ATM purchases in 1997. The increase of trade accounts payable from
$364,000 at December 31, 1995 to $1,670,000 at December 31, 1996 is also
attributable to a significant increase in operations in 1996. These increases
are consistent with the Company's projected growth in the earlier years of its
operations.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE EXPOSURE

In 1997, 99% of the Company's revenues were generated in Poland and Hungary.
For the three months ended March 31, 1998 the comparable figure was 92%, with
the remaining 8% being generated in Germany and Croatia. While in Hungary the
majority of revenues received are to be US dollar denominated, this is not the
case in Poland, where the majority of revenues are denominated in Polish
zloty. However the majority of these contracts are linked either to inflation
or the retail price index. While it remains the case that a significant
portion of the Company's expenditures are made in or are denominated in U.S.
dollars, the Company is also striving to achieve more of its expenses in local
currencies to match its revenues.

The Company anticipates that in the future, a substantial portion of the
Company's assets, including fixed assets, will be denominated in the local
currencies of each market. As a result of continued European economic
convergence, including the increased influence of the Deutsche Mark, as
opposed to the U.S. dollar, on the Central European currencies, the Company
expects that the currencies of the markets where the proceeds from the
offering will be used will fluctuate less against the Deutsche Mark than
against the Dollar. Accordingly, the Company believes that the issuance of
Deutsche Mark denominated debt will provide, in the medium to long term, for a
closer matching of assets and liabilities than a dollar denominated issuance
would.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

installation by the fourth quarter 1998. Most of the ATMs in the Euronet
network are not year 2000 compliant, and hardware and software upgrades will
be installed under contract with Company's Euronet's ATM maintenance vendors.
According to the Company's current estimates, the cost will be approximately
$1,000 per ATM, and the required installation will be finished by the end of
1998. The Company estimates that approximately 560 of its ATMs will require
upgrades for year 2000 compliance.

The Company is currently planning a survey of its bank customers concerning
the compliance of their back office systems with year 2000 requirements, and
anticipates launching such survey in the third quarter of 1998. If the
Company's bank customers do not bring their card authorization systems into
compliance with year 2000 requirements, the Company may be unable to process
transactions on cards issued by such banks and may lose revenues from such
transactions. This could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
revenues. Therefore, the Company will monitor, and hopes to assist its bank
clients in, implementation of their year 2000 compliance programs, and may, if
required to accelerate such compliance programs, create consulting
capabilities in this respect.

INFLATION AND FUNCTIONAL CURRENCIES

In recent years, Hungary, Poland and the Czech Republic have experienced
high levels of inflation. Consequently, these countries' currencies have
continued to decline in value against the major currencies of the OECD over
this time period. However, due to the significant reduction in the inflation
rate of these countries in recent years, it is expected that none of these
countries will be considered to have a hyper-inflationary economy in 1998.
Therefore, since Poland will no longer be considered hyper-inflationary
beginning in 1998 and a significant portion of the Company's Polish
subsidiary's revenues and expenses are denominated in zloty, the functional
currency of the Company's Polish subsidiary will now be the zloty. The
functional currency of the Company's Hungarian subsidiary will continue to be
the U.S. dollar. It is expected that the functional currency of the Company's
Czech subsidiary will also be the U.S. dollar.

Germany and France have experienced relatively low and stable inflation
rates in recent years. Therefore, the local currencies in each of these
markets is the functional currency. Although Croatia, like Germany and France,
has maintained relatively stable inflation and exchange rates, the functional
currency of the Croatian company is the U.S. dollar due to the significant
level of U.S. dollar denominated revenues and expenses. Due to the factors
mentioned above, the Company does not believe that inflation will have a
significant effect on results of operations or financial condition. The
Company continually reviews inflation and the functional currency in each of
the countries that it operates in.

IMPLEMENTATION OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Company, effective for the year ended December 31, 1997, has adopted the
following Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS): SFAS No. 128,
"Earnings per Share." Pursuant to the provisions of the statement, basic loss
per share has been computed by dividing net loss attributable to common
shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the period. The effect of potential common shares (stock options
outstanding) is anti-dilutive. Accordingly, dilutive loss per share does not
assume the exercise of stock options outstanding.

SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." The Company has adopted this
statement for the three months ended March 31, 1998 by providing a statement
of operations and comprehensive loss.

SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information." The Company has one industry segment but operates in a number of
geographical segments. The Company has disclosed separately its two major
geographical segments in 1997, being Hungary and Poland as required by SFAS
No.131.

BUSINESS

OVERVIEW

The Company operates the only independent, non-bank owned automatic teller
machine ("ATM") network in Central Europe, as a service provider to banks and
other financial institutions. The Company was established in 1994 and
commenced operations in June 1995. Since it commenced operations, the Company
has undertaken a rollout of its ATM network with 53, 166 and 693 ATMs in
operation at December 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively. As of March 31,
1998 the Company operated a network of 798 state of the art ATMs, with 359
located in Hungary, 332 in Poland, 64 in Germany, 35 in Croatia and 8 in the
Czech Republic. Through agreements and relationships established with local
banks, international credit and debit card issuers and associations of card
issuers such as American Express, Diners Club International, VISA, Mastercard
and EUROPAY (together "International Card Organizations"), the Company's ATMs
are able to process ATM transactions for holders of credit and debit cards
issued by or bearing the logos of such banks and International Card
Organizations. In addition, through its sponsorship arrangements with banks
which issue VISA and EUROPAY cards, the Company is able to accept cards with
the PLUS and Cirrus logos. The Company receives a fee from the relevant card
issuing bank or International Card Organization for any ATM transactions
processed on the Company's ATMs. Subject to full evaluation of market
opportunities, the Company expects to install approximately 800 additional
ATMs during 1998. The Company also offers out-sourced ATM management services
to local banks that own proprietary ATM networks for which the Company
receives a fixed monthly fee and a per transaction fee. The Company's Common
Stock is traded on the NASDAQ National Market under the symbol "EEFT" and
based on its share price as of the close of May 1, 1998 the Company's equity
market capitalization was approximately $102 million.

As of March 31, 1997, Euronet's ATM machines accepted approximately 99% of
the domestic credit and debit cards issued in Hungary and 64% of the domestic
credit and debit cards issued in Poland. The Company is able to accept
substantially all of the domestic credit and debit cards issued in Germany due
to its connection, through a sponsorship agreement with the German bank,
Service Bank GmbH, to a central transaction authorization switch in Germany.
In Croatia, the Company currently accepts 11% of the issued credit and debit
cards, and it expects to be able to accept 29% by the end of May 1998 through
an agreement signed with Atlas American Express. The Company is at the early
stages of establishing its network in the Czech Republic where it currently
operates eight ATMs which are currently able to accept VISA cards representing
22% of the issued debit and credit cards issued in the Czech Republic.

The Company believes that one of the most important factors in determining
the success of an ATM network is the location of the ATMs. The Company's
strategy is to establish sites for its ATMs that provide high visibility and
cardholder utilization. As part of this strategy, the Company identifies major
pedestrian traffic locations where people need quick and convenient access to
cash. Key target locations for Euronet's ATMs include (i) major shopping
malls, (ii) busy intersections, (iii) local smaller shopping areas offering
grocery stores, supermarkets and services where people routinely shop, (iv)
mass transportation hubs such as city bus and subway stops, rail and bus
stations, airports and gas stations, and (v) tourist and entertainment centers
such as historical sections of cities, cinemas, and recreational facilities.

38
<PAGE>

The Company believes that the level of services it provides and the location
of its ATMs make it an attractive service provider to banks and International
Card Organizations. By connecting to the Company's network, local banks can
offer their customers the convenience of cash withdrawal and balance inquiry
services in numerous off-site locations without incurring additional branch
operating costs. Alternatively, banks can outsource the management of their
proprietary ATM networks to the Company, thereby reducing their operating
costs and improving the allocation of their own resources. In addition, the
Company believes that the services it provides permit it to capitalize on the
increase in bank account usage and credit and debit card issuance in Central
Europe as demand for banking services continue to grow in the region.

THE ATM MARKET OPPORTUNITY IN EUROPE

The Company believes there are a number of trends occurring in its existing
and planned markets which offer significant opportunities for its business:

Substantial and Growing Central European Economies. Hungary, Poland, the
Czech Republic, and Croatia are among the fastest growing economies in Europe
and represent a consumer market of approximately 64.0 million people in the
aggregate. The long term sovereign credit ratings of these countries by
Moody's Investor Service, Inc. and Standard & Poor's Corporation are currently
(Baa3)/(BBB-), (Baa3)/(BBB-), (Baa1)/(BBB-), and (Baa3)/(BBB-), respectively.
Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic, and Croatia have recently experienced
significant growth in their economies, with 1997 real gross domestic product
growth estimates for each of these countries of 3.0%, 5.5%, 4.7%, and 7.0%,
respectively. In recent years, each of these countries has encouraged foreign
private investment. In 1995, direct foreign investment, was $4.4 billion for
Hungary, $1.1 billion for Poland, $2.7 billion for the Czech Republic, and $81
million for Croatia while for 1996, direct foreign investment in these
countries was $2.0 billion, $2.7 billion, $1.3 billion, and $349 million,
respectively. In addition to a steady inflow of foreign investment, Hungary,
Poland and the Czech Republic have reduced inflation from 28.3% and 26.8%, and
9.1% respectively, in 1995 to an estimated 18.0%, 15.9% and 8.5% respectively,
in 1997. Croatia has maintained inflation in the single digits, increasing
only slightly from 2.0% in 1995 to an estimated 4.0% for 1997.

Development of Central European Banking Infrastructure. Historically, the
banking industry in Central Europe generally has been characterized by low
levels of customer service, limited operating hours, and long waiting time to
complete simple transactions. With the fall of communism, the banking sector
in most Central European countries has undergone a significant transformation
due to the initiation of privitasation programs and the adoption of free
market principles. These changes have allowed banks the opportunity to expand
the range of services and products offered. In addition, many Central European
countries have allowed foreign banks to enter local markets, bringing
additional technological know-how, products, expertise and capital. As foreign
banks have been permitted to establish banks or invest in local banks in the
region, the retail banking industry in many countries in Central Europe has
become more competitive. Many banks have begun to implement strategies for
serving and attracting a larger portion of the retail market in this
competitive environment. The Company believes that banks view electronic
banking and the issuance of debit and credit cards as methods for increasing
customer service and enhancing customer loyalty.

Low ATM Density and Card Issuance in Central Europe; Significant Growth
Potential. The Company believes that two principal drivers of an ATM business
in a developing economy are ATM density per million people and card issuance
as a percentage of the population. The Company estimates that as of January
1997 there were 94 ATMs per million of population in Hungary, 17 ATMs per
million of population in Poland, 112 ATMs per million of population in the
Czech Republic and 15 ATMs per million of population in Croatia. These figures
compare with 478 ATMs per million of population in Austria, 376 ATMs per
million of population in the United Kingdom, 419 ATMs per million of
population in France, 459 ATMs per million of population in Germany, and 524
ATMs per million of population in the United States as of January 1997. Based
on information compiled by the Company, as of January 1, 1998, the number of
cards issued as a percentage of population is 20% in Hungary, 5% in Poland,
14% in the Czech Republic, and 16% in Croatia as compared with

39
<PAGE>

110% in Austria, 151% in the United Kingdom, 90% in France, 98% in Germany and
246% in the United States as of January 1, 1997. The Company believes the
lower ATM density and card issuance in these Central European countries
provide potential for significant growth.

The banks in Hungary and Poland originally issued VISA and EUROPAY cards
only to their best customers at relatively unfavorable terms, which often
included a high deposit of hard currency earning little or no interest, high
percentage charges per transaction and high annual fees. Competitive pressure
has led to more favorable terms and the issuance of VISA and EUROPAY cards to
maintain and attract customers. The number of VISA cards in circulation in
Hungary has increased from approximately 260,000 in September 1996 to 715,000
in December 1997. In Poland there were approximately 100,000 VISA cards issued
as of March 1996, compared to 317,000 as of December 31, 1997. This is
significant in the development of the Company's business because the Company
can accept all such cards issued in each market through a single "sponsorship"
arrangement with a VISA or EUROPAY bank in that market--the Company does not
need an agreement with each bank as in the case of proprietary cards issued by
banks. The Company believes that, over time, as the number of proprietary
cards in the overall card base shrinks due to issuance of cards bearing
international logos, the relative importance of the Company's direct
connections with banks should decrease and the importance of its sponsorship
arrangements should increase.

Development of Electronic Banking. The economies of most emerging markets,
including those of Poland, Hungary, and the Czech Republic, have historically
been cash based because efficient electronic funds transfer, ATM, and check
cashing and clearing facilities had not been developed. Most employees in
these countries have typically been paid in cash and until recently, most
purchases were made, and bills were paid, in cash. While electronic banking,
including electronic transfers, ATM and point of sale services have recently
been introduced into the region, they are still in the early stages of
development. The Company believes this represents a substantial opportunity.
Hungary has recently introduced legislation to increase the use of electronic
means of payment, by requiring that civil servants receive their salary via
direct deposit to bank accounts. As a result, many people who ordinarily would
not have a bank account have been or will be forced to open accounts to access
their salary. The Company expects that a trend toward direct deposit of
payroll in Central Europe will continue. Direct deposit combined with the
accelerating development of the retail electronic banking industry and general
economic growth in Central Europe is expected to lead to increased bank
account usage, credit and debit card issuance, and demand for ATM services.

Additional Opportunities In Western European Markets. The developed markets
of Western Europe are characterized by high levels of card issuance and a
large number of ATMs. However, the Company believes that there are significant
opportunities in Western Europe for the Company's services including (i)
installing ATM's in high traffic, non-bank locations, (ii) providing ATM
outsourcing and management services to banks with proprietary networks and
(iii) offering innovative solutions for year 2000 compliance. The majority of
ATM's in Western Europe are installed in bank branches. In France there are
24,500 ATM's, but only 7% of them are in non-bank locations. By comparison,
approximately 41% of the ATM's in the United States and 17% in the United
Kingdom are in non-bank locations. The Company also believes that banks in
Western Europe will increasingly seek to outsource their proprietary ATM
networks to focus on their core businesses and reduce operating expenses.
Finally, there are a substantial number of ATM's throughout Western Europe
which are not year 2000 compliant or which will require upgrades to comply
with new technological requirements (for example chip card readiness or new
encryption technology). The Company believes it can offer banks convenient
turn-key year 2000 compliance and chip card solutions, including purchasing an
existing ATM network and performing all the necessary upgrades.

THE ATM MARKET OPPORTUNITY IN THE UNITED STATES

The ATM market in the U.S. is a competitive but fragmented market, with many
different types of entities owning and operating ATMs. These include banks,
small and large independent networks of ATMs and various retail outlets
including shopping malls and food stores. The Company believes that selected
opportunities exist in the U.S. market to acquire small existing regional
networks and combine, develop and integrate networks to improve profitability
through economies of scale and more efficient operating methods. In addition,
because it is the most developed ATM market in the world, the U.S. market has
experienced a development of ATMs beyond

40
<PAGE>

the processing of simple cash transactions. Innovative services offered by
ATMs in the United States include projection of video advertising during
transaction processing, sale of tickets for theatre and other events and sale
of phone cards. By purchasing and operating advanced machines in the U.S.
consumer market, the Company believes it can apply such operational expertise
in the other markets in which the Company conducts its business. See""--The
Euronet Network.".

COMPANY STRENGTHS

The Company believes it has a number of key strengths which position it to
capitalize on the market opportunities it has identified:

Early Entrant in Central Europe; Established Market Position. The Company
believes it has an advantage as one of the early entrants to the ATM markets
of Central Europe. Euronet has been able to obtain ATM locations which are
typically characterized as high traffic non-bank locations with 24-hour
accessibility. The Company has been able to obtain long-term exclusive leases
and agreements for many ATM sites, at low cost. Examples of the Company's
highly visible locations include McDonald's, gas stations such as ARAL, OMV,
British Petroleum, and Shell, food stores such as Tesco, Julius Meinl,
Tengelmann, Kaiser's, Magnet/Grosso and Plus, Makro Cash & Carry, Ikea, Metro,
and the Marriott Hotel in Warsaw. In some cases, the Company has an option to
install ATMs at all the sites owned by certain retail chains. The Company
believes the quality of its ATM sites, and the long-term nature of its leases
allow the Company well to maintain its competitive position and to attract and
retain customers. In addition, as the only independent ATM operator in Central
Europe, the Company has established a significant number of agreements with
local and international banks and International Card Organizations ("Card
Issuers") which enable it to attract a wider base of customers to its network
than proprietary bank-owned networks whose card acceptance policies may be
limited. Furthermore, the Company believes the number of its ATM sites,
particularly in Hungary and Poland, make it an attractive partner for Card
Issuers wishing to extend their reach. See "Business--Acceptance and
Management's Agreements and--ATM Location".

Geographic Diversity of Operations. The Company currently conducts its ATM
network business in Hungary, Poland, Germany, Croatia, and the Czech Republic.
The Company believes that the expansion of its operations in its existing and
future markets will provide it with some protection against potential
disruptions in any one country's economy. In addition, the breadth of the
Company's country coverage allows it to direct the rollout of its network
towards the most lucrative market opportunities as they arise. For example,
should banks in one of the Company's countries of operation significantly
increase or decrease card issuance levels in a given year, the Company can
redirect its network rollout to factor in such developments without any
material disruption in its overall rollout plan. As the Company continues to
expand into its existing markets and new markets, such as France, the
Company's revenue base is expected to diversify and become less reliant on any
one country's economy. Euronet believes its geographic expansion will enable
it to benefit from the stability of the developed Western European markets
where the cardholder base is large and transaction volumes are high while also
allowing the Company to benefit from the substantial opportunity of the
emerging markets.

Poland and Croatia. This agreement is a "regional" agreement which is intended
to be extended to all of the Central European countries. In addition, the
Company has signed agreements with American Express or its local franchise to
accept cards in these countries. The Company expects to begin accepting
American Express cards in Croatia under this agreement at the end of May. This
will enable the Company to accept approximately 29% of the cards issued in
Croatia. Prior to being permitted to accept VISA/Plus,
Mastercard/EUROPAY/Cirrus and American Express cards at its ATMs, the Company
was required to demonstrate that it met all standards set by International
Card Organizations to process transactions for such International Card
Organizations.

Critical Mass; Largest Non-Bank Purchaser of ATMs in Central Europe. With
over 798 ATMs in operation and a monthly average of approximately 50 new ATMs
purchased or leased for the six months ended March 31, 1998, Euronet believes
it is the largest purchaser of ATMs in Central Europe and one of the largest
purchasers of new ATMs in Europe. As such, Euronet has negotiating leverage
with ATM manufacturers and believes that it receives favorable prices as
compared to lower volume purchasers. The Company has long term contracts with
certain ATM manufacturers to purchase ATMs at contractually defined prices
which include quantity discounts. These contracts, however, do not commit the
Company to purchase a defined number of ATMs. In addition, the Company has
leverage, as compared to smaller ATM networks, in negotiating favorable
pricing for ATM-related software, cash delivery services and ATM maintenance
services. As the Company continues to expand into other countries, it expects
to enter into multi-country agreements with telecommunication providers to
reduce monthly charges. The Company expects that as it expands its network,
its ability to reduce costs will make it more competitive.

Lower Cost Alternative to Banks. By acquiring ATMs, computer equipment,
maintenance, telecommunication and other services, less expensively, and by
running a focused operation, the Company believes that it can offer banks a
low cost alternative to building or operating their own ATM network. The
Company can offer banks a connection to the Euronet's ATM network, the
management of an existing proprietary network of ATMs or the development of a
new ATM network. The Company's ATM management services include 24-hour
monitoring from Euronet's Processing Center of ATM operational status,
coordinating the cash delivery, the monitoring and management of cash levels
in the ATM, and automatic dispatch for necessary service calls. See
"Agreements with Card Issuers and International Card Organizations--ATM
Management Services Agreements."

State of the Art Integrated On-Line ATM Network; Capable of Providing
Additional Services. The Company has purchased advanced hardware and software
providing state-of-the-art features and reliability through sophisticated
diagnostics and self-testing routines. The ATMs utilized by the Company can
perform basic functions, such as dispensing cash and retrieving account
information, as well as providing other services such as advertising through
the use of color monitor graphics, messages on receipts, and coupon
dispensing. In addition, the Company's ATMs are modular and upgradable so that
they can be adapted to provide additional services in response to changing
technology and consumer demand, including new products such as reloadable chip
cards. See "--ATM Network Technology--Satellite Communications."

STRATEGY

Expand its ATM Base in Existing and New European Markets. The Company's
principal focus in the near term will be the continued expansion of its
installed base of ATMs in Europe. The Company's rollout plans are highly
dependent upon the level of new card issuance in its existing markets of
Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic and Croatia as well as possible other
markets in the region. The Company believes it is important to balance the
number of ATMs in service with the number of cards expected to be in
circulation to ensure that there is enough consumer demand to support its
capital investments. The Company's rollout plans for any one market may vary
from time to time in response to fluctuations in card issuance levels.
Notwithstanding these fluctuations, the Company anticipates adding
approximately 3,600 new ATMs in existing and new European markets by December
31, 2000, the majority of which are expected to be in existing markets.
Factors affecting

42
<PAGE>

the Company's expansion into new Central European countries include the state
of the local economy, the stage of development of the retail banking market
and ability to conduct business in accordance with the Company's customary
standards and practices. Factors affecting further penetration of existing
markets in the region are principally related to new card issuance levels,
securing attractive retail sites and the number of strategic bank and card
agreements.

Leverage its Critical Mass to Achieve Further Economies of Scale. The
Company intends to seek ways to achieve further cost savings and economies of
scale. Specific areas of opportunity identified by the Company include (i) the
further centralization and automation of its ATM monitoring services, (ii) the
utilization of software to assist banks in better cash management, and (iii)
obtaining better terms with suppliers and contractors. With respect to ATM
monitoring efforts, the Company is in the process of implementing a new
monitoring software system which automatically generates commands to the
Company and its cash delivery and ATM maintenance contractors to remedy
operational problems. The Company has also purchased a software system which
is a highly accurate predictor of cash usage at individual ATMs. The Company
believes this system will enable it to reduce the amount of cash which must be
supplied to each ATM.

Continue to Form Strategic Relationships with Banks and International Card
Organizations. It is the Company's goal to be able to accept all credit and
debit cards issued in its markets at its ATMs. Euronet plans to continue to
develop cooperative relationships with VISA, EUROPAY, American Express and
Diners Club International, as well as certain banks with global consumer
approaches to banking or the card markets, such as GE Capital and Citibank.
Further, the Company is in the process of expanding certain individual country
relationships into regional relationships and centralizing accounts management
functions for such relationships.

Assist Banks in Issuing Cards. The level of usage of the Company's ATM
network depends in large part upon the issuance by banks of credit and debit
cards. In order to promote the issuance by banks of such cards, and to
establish relationships with banks at an early stage in the development of
their card departments, the Company has developed the "Blue Diamond" service.
In connection with this service, Euronet acts as a consultant in the
installation of the hardware and software necessary to assist banks in issuing
credit and debit cards to their account holders. The Company hopes that this
low cost product will be attractive to banks which seek to establish programs
to issue a relatively small numbers of cards. Although this product itself is
not likely to generate significant revenues, the Company believes the impact
on transaction volumes and the collateral benefits of working within the card
departments of banks could be significant over the long term. See "--Other
Services."

Capitalize on Additional Revenue Opportunities. The Company plans to take
advantage of the various distribution possibilities of ATMs and credit and
debit cards beyond basic cash withdrawal and balance inquiry functions by
providing value added services through ATMs as new technology develops and the
demand for such services grows in its markets. The Company currently sells
advertising on its ATM video screens, on receipts issued by the ATMs and on
coupons dispensed with cash from the ATMs. The Company is also currently
working to develop an ATM bill paying system that will be made available to
utilities and other service providers for bills that have traditionally
required payment in person at a post office or other central location.
Depending on demand, in the future the Company may also introduce other ATM
services currently available in other markets, including the ability to
"reload" chip cards, check stock or mutual fund account balances and purchase
items such as stamps and travelers checks at its ATM machines. The Company is
also evaluating the opportunity to offer point of sale authorization services
in the future. See "--Other Services."

Seek Additional Geographic and Other Market Opportunities. While the
Company's intention is to focus principally on expanding its ATM service
operations in Europe, it is exploring other geographic markets or strategic
business opportunities where it can make use of its operational expertise. The
Company plans to continue to seek additional ATM network management contracts
from which it can generate revenues and utilize its existing central
operations infrastructure with minimal capital investment. Other business and
network opportunities that the Company may evaluate include the expansion of
its operations through the acquisition of ATM networks from banks or other
businesses which support or complement its network. The Company believes that
many ATM networks could be run more efficiently and rendered more profitable
by the Company due to economies of scale or through the consolidation or
reorganization of the networks. Acquisitions of strategic businesses which
support the Company's activities (including software providers or other
transaction processors)

43
<PAGE>

could permit the Company to procure necessary services more inexpensively,
increase network traffic, or to expand more rapidly.

In terms of expansion outside of Europe, the Company plans to evaluate
certain developing markets where card issuance is high or expected to increase
rapidly, but where ATM infrastructure is not yet developed. The Company
expects that expansion in such new markets will generally be made in
cooperation with a local or international bank partner or Card Issuer in order
to enhance its ability to quickly establish a market presence. The Company
also plans to exploit opportunities it perceives for acquiring or developing
ATM networks in the United States. See "--The ATM Market Opportunity in the
United States" and "--The Euronet Network."

Other markets with potentially attractive ATM characteristics include, among
others, Argentina, China, Egypt, Estonia, Ireland, Lithuania, Russia and
Sweden. The Company is engaged in discussions with two U.S. persons regarding
the development of certain business opportunities in China. The Company
entered into a memorandum of understanding with such persons pursuant to which
the Company and such persons would form a subsidiary to own and operate an ATM
business in China if they are successful in obtaining a contract with one or
more Chinese banks. The Company would own more than an 80% interest in such
entity should it be formed.

In developing its network in other markets, the Company will seek to balance
the need to achieve the highest level of transactions per machine over its
network (which mitigates in favor of installation of machines in developed
markets with large card bases) with the objective of capitalizing on its
advantageous position in newer markets, where it believes that higher levels
of growth will result over the medium to long term due to increases in the
card base. The Company intends to slow down its installation of ATMs in
Hungary and Poland until transactions per ATM increase in those countries.
During the first half of 1998, the Company will focus its efforts on
developing its network in the Czech Republic, Germany, Croatia and France and,
if successful in the acquisition of ATM assets in the United States, in
developing such assets. Thereafter, the orientation of the Company will depend
upon its evaluation of performance in the various existing markets and
opportunities arising in new markets.

THE EURONET NETWORK

General. The Company currently operates ATMs in Hungary, Poland, the Czech
Republic and Croatia. It offers ATM management services in Germany. The
Company has offices in, and plans to extend its network and its ATM management
services operations to France and Romania and possibly the U.S. in the near
future. Over the medium to long term, the Company will also consider expansion
of its network into other emerging or developed markets (including outside of
Europe) in which the fundamental characteristics of the card and ATM markets
suggest that there may be strong demand for the Company's services.

In several European countries, including Germany and France, banks have
organized central switches through which transactions can be routed to the
appropriate bank for authorization. Once connected to such a switch through a
bank, an ATM is able to accept transactions made by the holders of
substantially all of the cards in those markets. The Company's approach to
these markets will be to enter into agreements with banks having access to
these switches as an operator of ATMs under sponsorship of the bank, as a pure
service provider (as the Company has done in Germany under its contract with
Service Bank GmbH ("Service Bank"). See "--Germany."

Hungary. As of March 31, 1998 the Company had 359 ATMs installed in Hungary
as part of its independent network, primarily in the country's six largest
cities. Euronet has entered into agreements with most major banks in Hungary
that issue ATM cards allowing all credit and debit cards issued by such banks
to be accepted at Euronet's ATMs. In addition, the Company has entered into
agreements with American Express, Diners Club International and sponsor banks
that are members of VISA International and EUROPAY/Mastercard/Cirrus allowing
cards issued by American Express and those cards bearing the
VISA/Plus/EUROPAY/Mastercard/Cirrus logos to be used at Euronet's ATMs in
Hungary. As a result of these agreements, as of March 31, 1998, Euronet's ATMs
in Hungary accepted approximately 99% of the domestic debit and credit cards
issued in Hungary and all major international credit and debit cards.

In addition to operating its own network of ATMs, as of March 31, 1998,
Euronet was managing 45 non-bank branch ATMs under a management contract with
Budapest Bank. Under this contract, the Company connects ATMs which are owned
by Budapest Bank to its central processing center and routes transactions to
Budapest Bank's authorization center for approval. The Company also monitors
the operation of the ATMs, provides maintenance and, through its subcontracted
cash in transit company, delivers cash to the ATMs.

44
<PAGE>

Poland. As of March 31, 1998 Euronet had 332 ATMs installed in Poland.
Euronet had executed Acceptance Agreements with seven Polish banks. The
Company has also entered into agreements with American Express, Diners Club
International and sponsor banks affiliated with VISA International and EUROPAY
allowing all cards issued by American Express and all credit and debit cards
bearing the VISA/Plus/EUROPAY/ Mastercard/Cirrus logos to be used at Euronet's
ATMs in Poland. In April 1998, the Company signed an acceptance agreement with
PolCard which was activated in May 1998. Under the agreement, approximately
400,000 additional cards issued in Poland are now accepted by the Company's
ATM network increasing the percentage of cards accepted by the Company in
Poland to approximately 80%. The Company intends to pursue a strategy similar
to that employed in Hungary in order to increase the percentage of the total
card base which can be used at Euronet's ATMs.

Germany. In Germany, ATMs are subject to essentially the same licensing
requirements as bank branches. The Company has signed a contract with Service
Bank under which it provides ATM services, including network development,
maintenance and monitoring services. Because the Company acts as a pure
service provider to Service Bank it is not subject to German financial
institution licensing requirements. However, Euronet could obtain certain
advantages by obtaining a limited financial activity license (including the
ability to increase the scope of the services it offers and develop its own
network of ATMs). The Company may apply for such a license in the future. The
Company first began rendering services to Service Bank as of May, 1997 and as
of March 31, 1998 the Company was servicing 64 ATMs. The Company intends to
increase the number of ATMs substantially during the remainder of 1998.
Although Euronet locates ATM sites under this contract for Service Bank, the
site agreements are entered into on behalf of Service Bank. To comply with
German regulations, the Company processes transactions in Germany through a
contractor, rather than through its Processing Center. The agreement with
Service Bank is terminable upon six months' notice at any time after December,
1999. As a result of an agreement between certain card issuing banks in
Germany, all ATMs in Germany can accept virtually all credit and debit cards
issued by German financial institutions. Therefore, all of Service Bank's ATMs
managed by Euronet in Germany under the agreement will be able to accept
virtually all credit and debit cards issued by German financial institutions.

Croatia. Euronet installed its first ATMs in November, 1997 and began
processing transactions on those ATMs on December 12, 1997. As of March 31,
1998, Euronet had 35 ATMs installed and operating in Croatia. Currently all of
the ATMs are in Zagreb and surrounding cities, but the Company has targeted
the coastal areas for development, where the tourist industry is strong. The
Company has signed agreements with Diners Club International and Atlas
American Express, which have collectively issued approximately 29% of the
cards in the Croatian market. The Company is in the process of establishing
its direct computer connection with American Express in Croatia.

Czech Republic. The Company began processing transactions in the Czech
Republic in February 1998. On February 25, 1998, the Company signed an
agreement with Bank Austria to become its VISA sponsor bank. As of March 31,
1998, the Company had installed 8 ATMs and is in the process of connecting
these ATMs to its central processing center. The Company has signed five real
estate agreements covering 38 locations, including one with Billa, the third
largest supermarket chain in the Czech Republic.

France. The Company established its office in France in December 1997 and is
performing the preliminary work necessary to begin providing services,
including commercial negotiations with banks and other card issuers, site
owners and subcontractors for cash delivery, ATM equipment supplies and
telecommunications.

Expansion into France would require the Company to establish and thereafter
maintain a relationship with one or more French financial institutions.
Although the Company has not yet identified a French financial institution, it
has retained a managing director for France, and is exploring potential
relationships with French financial institutions and searching for potential
ATM locations. There can be no assurance as to when or if the Company will be
able to establish the necessary relationship for the commencement of
operations in France.

Romania. The Company established its office in Romania in December 1997 and
is performing the preliminary work necessary to begin providing services,
including commercial negotiations with banks and other card issuers, site
owners and subcontractors for cash delivery, ATM equipment supplies and
telecommunications.

<PAGE>

The United States. The Company is in preliminary discussions regarding the
possible acquisition of a network of ATMs principally located in the Eastern
United States from Maine to Florida. The acquisition, if made, also would
include various ATM network operating agreements, ATM installation agreements
covering approximately 1,700 sites, approximately 700 ATMs on location and
approximately 300 ATMs available for installation (the "ATM Assets"). The ATMs
on location are located principally in retail and grocery stores, including a
national chain. A new entity (the "Purchasing Entity") would be formed to
acquire the ATM Assets and to operate them. The purchase price under
discussion for the ATM Assets would be paid by the Purchasing Entity and would
be approximately $19,000,000, of which $2,500,000 would be payable in cash,
$4,500,000 by the issuance of non-interest bearing promissory notes payable
over the next several years, $2,000,000 by the issuance of a non-interest
bearing contingent promissory note based on performance and the Purchasing
Entity's purchasing the ATM Assets subject to approximately $10 million of
secured debt. Based on unaudited information provided to the Company, during
the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997, the seller had revenues of $4.6
million, costs and expenses of $7.5 million and a net loss of $2.9 million
from ATM operations.

The Company is also in preliminary discussions regarding the formation of
the Purchasing Entity which would purchase and own and operate the ATM Assets.
At present, it is proposed that the Company would have an approximate 66.5%
interest in such entity with the remaining equity interest being held by David
Bonsal, 6.5%, David Windhorst, 6.5% and Universal Money Centers, Inc. ("UMC"),
8.6%, a small company which owns and operates ATM machines in the United
States. Messrs. Bonsal and Windhorst, officers and directors of UMC, would be
responsible for administering and supervising the day-to-day activities of
such entity and UMC would be responsible for providing network switching and
processing services. The remaining 11.9% will be held by associates of Messrs.
Bonsal and Windhorst.

Discussions regarding the acquisition of the assets and the formation of the
purchasing entity are in preliminary stages and no assurance can be given that
agreements will be successfully concluded.

TYPICAL ATM TRANSACTION

In a typical ATM transaction processed by the Company, a debit or credit
cardholder inserts a credit or debit card into an ATM to withdraw funds or
obtain a balance inquiry. The transaction is routed from the ATM to Euronet's
Processing Center. The Company's Processing Center computers then identify the
Card Issuer by the bank identification number contained within the card's
magnetic strip. The transaction is then switched to the local issuing bank or
International Card Organization (or its designated processor) for
authorization. Once authorization is received, the authorization message is
routed back to the ATM and the transaction is completed. Transactions by
holders of cards bearing international logos are routed to central clearing
systems operated by the relevant International Card Organization.

For banks that do not maintain on-line account balance information for their
cardholders, the Company receives authorization limits from such banks on a
daily basis, stores such banks' cardholders' authorization limits on its
Processing Center computers and authorizes transactions on behalf of such
banks. The Company transmits records of all transactions processed in this
manner to such banks which then update their own cardholder account records.

Authorization of ATM transactions processed on Euronet's ATMs is the
responsibility of the Card Issuer. Euronet is not liable for dispensing cash
in error if it receives a proper authorization message from a Card Issuer.
Euronet receives payment of a processing fee from the issuer of the credit or
debit card used in a transaction, even for certain transactions that are not
completed because authorization is not given by the relevant Card Issuer. The
fees charged by Euronet to the Card Issuers are independent of any fees
charged by the Card Issuers to cardholders in connection with the ATM
transactions. The Company does not charge cardholders a fee for using its
ATMs. In many cases the fee charged by a Card Issuer to a cardholder in
connection with a transaction processed at Euronet's ATMs is less than the fee
charged by Euronet to the Card Issuer.

ATM LOCATION

The Company believes that one of the most important factors in determining
the success of an ATM network is the location of the ATMs. While most ATMs
owned by European banks are located on the premises of the banks or their
branches or on premises of large employers paying their employees by direct
deposit,

46
<PAGE>

currently all but six of Euronet's ATMs are located in non-bank sites. The
Company's strategy in pursuing off branch sites for its ATMs is to concentrate
on locations that will provide high visibility and high cardholder
utilization. As part of its strategy, the Company identifies the major high
pedestrian traffic regions and locations where people need access to cash and
find it convenient to stop for cash. Key target locations for Euronet's ATMs
include (i) major shopping malls, (ii) busy intersections, (iii) local smaller
shopping areas offering grocery stores, supermarkets and services where people
routinely shop, (iv) mass transportation hubs such as city bus and subway
stops, rail and bus stations, airports and gas stations, and (v) tourist and
entertainment centers such as historical sections of cities, cinemas, and
recreational facilities.

Research conducted in the United States indicates that once a cardholder
establishes a habitual pattern of using a particular ATM, the cardholder will
continue to use that ATM unless there are significant problems with a
location, such as a machine frequently being out of service. It is the
Company's goal to secure key real estate locations before its competitors can
do so, and become the habitual ATM location of card users in its markets.

In Hungary, the Company has obtained agreements to install ATMs at several
outlets of Julius Meinl, a large grocery chain, several McDonald's
restaurants, several ARAL, OMV and Shell gas stations, Tesco supermarkets,
Ikea as well as other major retail sites in Budapest, Debrecen, Kaposvar, Gyor
and Szekesfehervar. In Poland, the Company has signed contracts to place ATMs
in many key locations including McDonald's restaurants, British Petroleum and
Texaco gas stations, the Warsaw Marriott Hotel, Makro Cash and Carry and other
retail outlets in Polish cities. In Germany, the Company is installing Service
Bank ATMs in Metro stores and Tengelmann group stores (which include
Tengelmann, Kaiser's, Magnet/Grosso and Plus food stores) in addition to
Edeka, Lidl & Schwarz, Allkauf, Kaufhalle, real, Dibag and the German
railways. It is part of the Company's strategy to expand its relationships
with large multinational companies which have multi-location businesses to
obtain ATM sites.

The Company's agreements for the location of ATMs generally provide for the
location of one or more ATMs inside or adjacent to the premises of the site
provider at minimal rental rates. In Hungary, the agreements generally provide
for an indefinite term and are terminable on relatively short notice. The
Company is in the process, however, of renegotiating its agreements with major
site providers to include fixed terms of three to five years. In Poland, the
Czech Republic and Croatia, the agreements generally provide for a three to
seven year term and are renewable for additional three to five year terms. In
most cases, the Company pays rent for the sites, although such rent is
substantially lower than the average rental rate in Western European
countries. Generally, the Company's fixed term leases for ATM sites can only
be terminated by a site provider if the Company defaults on its obligations.
To date, none of the Company's leases have been terminated by site providers.
The Company's leases in Poland generally include provisions permitting
termination by the Company if transaction volumes at a site are unacceptable
to the Company. The leases termination provisions in Hungary are somewhat
broader and the Company can generally terminate leases there for any reason.
To date, the Company has closed or relocated 25 sites.

AGREEMENTS WITH CARD ISSUERS AND INTERNATIONAL CARD ORGANIZATIONS

ACCEPTANCE AGREEMENTS

The Company's Acceptance Agreements with banks generally provide that all
credit and debit cards issued by the banks may be used at all ATM machines
operated by Euronet. The Acceptance Agreements also generally allow Euronet to
receive transaction authorization directly from the card issuing bank or
International Card Organization. Acceptance Agreements generally provide for a
term of two to five years and are generally automatically renewed unless
notice is given by either party prior to the termination date. In some cases,
the agreements are terminable by either party upon six months' notice. The
Company generally is able to connect a bank to its network within 30 to 90
days of signing an Acceptance Agreement.

Banks that execute Acceptance Agreements agree to participate in Euronet's
ATM cash supply system. Under this system the banks provide all of the cash
needed to operate the network. Each bank provides its pro rata share of cash
dispensed to cardholders from Euronet's ATMs each day based upon the prior
day's transaction reports generated by Euronet. Cash provided by the banks is
deposited by a third party security company in Euronet's ATMs generally once
or twice a week depending on the volume of the transactions. The cash remains
the property of the banks until it is dispensed to cardholders. The Company
maintains insurance with respect to the cash while it is held in its ATMs.

47
<PAGE>

The Company may, if required to secure an Acceptance Agreement, loan funds
to a bank or other Card Issuer to permit that entity to meet its obligation to
supply cash. So far, two loans of this type have been approved: one to Atlas
American Express (a privately owned and capitalized franchisee of American
Express) and one to Diners Club Adriatic (a privately owned and capitalized
franchisee of Diner's Club) but have not yet been funded. To minimize any
financial risks related to these loans the Company intends to obtain
guarantees from the international organizations. The Company will have the
right to offset any amount in its ATM machines against any amounts it
advances. The Company plans to periodically examine the relationship in an
effort to minimize its repayment risk. When Euronet agrees to make such a
loan, it either charges interest or increases the fees payable under the
underlying Acceptance Agreement to include an interest factor.

The ATM transaction fees charged by Euronet under the Acceptance Agreements
vary depending on the type of transaction (which are currently cash
withdrawals, balance inquiries, and transactions not completed because
authorization is not given by the relevant Card Issuer) and the quantity of
transactions attributable to a particular Card Issuer. The transaction fee
charged to Card Issuers for cash withdrawals, on average, is in excess of
$0.75 per transaction, while transaction fees for the other two types of
transactions that can currently be processed on Euronet's ATMs are generally
substantially less. There has been considerable downward pressure on
transaction fees (in particular for cash withdrawals) as the volumes of
transactions has increased for the larger banks. As transaction levels
increase for the larger banks, and the overall number of cards circulating in
the markets increases, such larger banks are more likely to conclude that it
is economical to bear the infrastructure costs associated with creating their
own ATM networks. Thus, the Company has been compelled to grant volume
discounts to such banks. For these banks, the Company attempts to achieve a
tiered fee structure, with a reduction of the transaction fee being granted
only on higher transaction volumes. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition" and Results of Operations--Overview."

Under the terms of the Acceptance Agreements, Euronet charges ATM
transaction fees to the card issuing banks. The Company attempts to include a
provision in its Acceptance Agreements to the effect that card issuing banks
will not charge their cardholders more for using Euronet's ATMs than the
banks' own ATMs. However, it is not always successful in obtaining agreement
to this provision. More recently, some banks have increased the amount of fees
charged through to their customers. This damages the Company's competitive
position as compared with bank-owned ATM networks, on which the fee charged
through to the customer may be lower.

The Acceptance Agreements generally provide for payment in local currency
but transaction fees are denominated in U.S. dollars or inflation adjusted.
Transaction fees are billed on terms no longer than one month. The Company's
agreement with Service Bank in Germany to manage and install ATMs provides for
fees similar to those paid with respect to Acceptance Agreements. The
Company's agreements to provide ATM management services, other than in
Germany, are expected to provide for monthly management fees plus fees payable
for each transaction. The transaction fees under these agreements are expected
to be generally lower than under the Acceptance Agreements. See "--ATM Network
Management Services."

ATM NETWORK MANAGEMENT SERVICES AGREEMENTS

During 1997, the Company began offering complete ATM network management
services to banks that own proprietary ATM networks. The ATM network
management services provided by the Company include management of an existing
network of ATMs or development of new ATM networks. This includes 24 hour
monitoring from its Processing Center of each individual ATM's status and cash
condition, coordinating the cash delivery and management of cash levels in the
ATM and automatic dispatch for necessary service calls. These services also
include: real-time transaction authorization, advanced monitoring, network
gateway access, network switching, 24 hour customer services, maintenance
services and settlement and reporting. The Company already provides many of
these services to existing customers and has invested in the necessary
infrastructure. As a result, agreements for such ATM network management
services ("ATM Management Agreements") provide for additional revenue with
lower incremental cost. Euronet will also be able to provide these managed
ATMs access to those international cards and networks that are connected to
the Euronet network.

In February 1997, the Company entered into an agreement with GE Capital
Corporation under which the Company became a preferred provider of ATM network
management services to certain banks affiliated with GE Capital Corporation
and located in Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic, Germany and Austria, including

48
<PAGE>

Mercurbank AG in Austria, Service Bank in Germany, GE Capital Bank SA in
Poland and Budapest Bank in Hungary. In January 1997, prior to execution of
this agreement, the Company had executed an agreement with Service Bank in
Germany to provide installation and management services to expand Service
Bank's existing ATM network in Germany in non-bank branch locations. As of
March 31, 1998, the Company was maintaining 64 ATMs under this agreement. To
date, the Company has not signed any agreements with banks owned by GE Capital
other than Service Bank and Budapest Bank.

The Company has entered into two other ATM Management Agreements. In
December 1996, it signed an agreement with Budapest Bank to provide these ATM
network management services to Budapest Bank's 160 machine ATM network in
Hungary. Currently, the Company has taken over management of 45 Budapest Bank
ATMs. Take over of the remainder has been delayed pending resolution of
certain software interface problems which have arisen in connection with the
implementation of the contract. An additional ATM Management Agreement was
signed with ING Bank in Hungary in July of 1997 and with Bank Wspolpracy
Regionalnej S.A. Krakow in Poland in April of 1998.

Under ATM Management Agreements, the Company can offer banks the option of
expanding the card base which may be accepted on managed ATMs. The banks may
elect to permit acceptance on Euronet managed ATMs of all cards accepted on
the Euronet network through certain Acceptance Agreements in the country
concerned. This could increase the volume of transactions processed by the
Company.

- --------
(1) OTP terminated this agreement effective July 1998. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--
Comparison of Results of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 1995,
1996 and 1997--Revenues" and "Risk Factors--Dependence on Relationships
with Banks and International Card Organizations; Termination of OTP
Contract".
(2) These entities have both an Acceptance and ATM Management Agreement with
the Company.

In order to be able to accept VISA and EUROPAY cards, Euronet must have a
relationship with a bank in each market giving it access to a VISA or EUROPAY
"gateway" to accept the cards. The agreements with MKB, WBK and Bank Austria
permit Euronet to process all VISA cards issued in Hungary, Poland and the
Czech Republic, respectively. The agreements with OTP and PekaO permit Euronet
to process all EUROPAY cards in Hungary and Poland, respectively. As a result
of the termination of the Company's contract with OTP, OTP will no longer act
as the Company's EUROPAY gateway. The Company is engaged in negotiations with
one of its other client banks in Hungary to serve as the Company's EUROPAY
gateway. These negotiations are in the document preparation stage and the
Company believes it will be successful in finalizing that agreement and
implementing acceptance of EUROPAY cards in Hungary after the termination of
the OTP contract through the EUROPAY gateway established under that agreement.
Moreover, the Company has received expressions of interest from several other
banks to act as its EUROPAY gateway and believes that, even if such agreement
is not finalized, an agreement can be reached with another bank in Hungary to
act as the Company's EUROPAY gateway. The Company can accept all VISA and
EUROPAY cards in Germany through its agreement with Service Bank.

In January 1998, OTP notified the Company that it was terminating its
contract with Euronet effective as of July 27, 1998. OTP advised the Company
that it terminated the contract since it desired to promote the use of its own
ATM network. OTP also indicated that the Company selected ATM sites which OTP
believed to be in competition with OTP ATM sites and that the Company failed
to provide OTP with certain transaction reports on a timely basis. It should
be noted that the reporting failure had been corrected more than two months
prior to OTP's notice of termination. As a result of this termination, the
Company will not have a direct connection with OTP and will not be able to
accept OTP proprietary bank cards and OTP will no longer act as the Company's
EUROPAY sponsor in Hungary. The Company will still be able to accept all OTP
issued VISA cards through its VISA gateway and, subject to the completion of a
new EUROPAY sponsor agreement with a bank in Hungary, the Company will be able
to accept all OTP issued EUROPAY cards through the new EUROPAY gateway. For
the year ended December 31, 1997 the Company's contract with OTP represented
approximately 51% of its consolidated revenues and approximately 26% of
consolidated revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1998. The financial
impact of the OTP contract termination is difficult to assess. The Company
believes that such impact may be mitigated in part because (i) the Company
believes that VISA and EUROPAY cards represent over 95% of the cards issued by
OTP and (ii) the Company receives a higher fee for transactions processed
through its VISA and EUROPAY gateway(s) than for OTP proprietary bank cards.
However, the Company believes that some of OTP's cardholders will be dissuaded
from patronizing Euronet's ATMs due to the higher fees passed through to
customers for transactions processed through the VISA and EUROPAY connection.

OTHER SERVICES

The Euronet Network constitutes a distribution network through which
financial and other products or services may be sold at a low incremental
cost. The Company has already developed certain services in addition to cash
withdrawal and balance inquiry transactions and will continue to implement
additional services as markets develop.

50
<PAGE>

In May 1996, the Company began to sell advertising on its network.
Advertising clients can put their advertisements on the video screens of
Euronet's ATMs, on the receipts issued by the ATMs and on coupons dispensed
with cash from the ATMs.

Euronet also plans to introduce payment processing capabilities on its ATMs
which would allow ATM card holders to pay utility bills. The bill payment
system would be made available to utilities and other service providers for
bills that have traditionally required payment in person at a post office or
other central locations. The Company has signed its first bill payment
agreement with a utility in Hungary and a corresponding settlement bank and is
currently working to develop the system operationally.

Euronet is exploring various markets (in particularly Croatia) regarding
providing on-line point of sale authorization for purchases made at retail
outlets with credit and debit cards. If such services are implemented by the
Company, purchases made with cards issued by banks that have executed
Acceptance Agreements and cards connected to international ATM networks that
are connected to the Euronet ATM network would be able to be authorized
through Euronet's Processing Center, generating additional transaction fees.

The Company's ATMs are upgradable so that they can be updated to be used
with new technologies including computer chip "smart cards" which are
electronic debit cards which can be used to withdraw cash from ATMs as well as
being "charged up" with ATM Network at an ATM through a connection with the
cardholder's bank and used to purchase goods from retail locations. All ATMs
now ordered by Euronet include chip card readers.

In addition to transactions over its network, the Company is developing
services which are complementary to, or promote, ATM transactions. During
1997, the Company developed a new card issuance product, referred to as the
"Blue Diamond." This product combines IBM hardware and Arksys software (the
Software that runs the Company's ATM Network) and is intended to permit banks
to rapidly implement card issuance programs. In exchange for a fee, Euronet
acts as a consultant in connection with the installation of the hardware and
software necessary to implement an ATM processing network and assists banks in
issuing credit and debit cards to their account holders. The Blue Diamond
system interfaces automatically with Euronet's Arksys ATM network software and
facilitates the acceptance on Euronet of transaction by the cards issued in
connection with the Blue Diamond service. The market for this product appears
to be strongest among banks wishing to issue a small number of cards or to
initiate their first card programs. The Company's primary motivation in the
development of this program is to promote the issuance of cards by banks,
which ultimately will be used on Euronet's network.

TRANSACTION VOLUMES

The Company monitors and reports on a regular basis to the public the number
of transactions which are made by cardholders on its networks. These include
cash withdrawals, balance inquiries and certain types of denied transactions
(transactions which have been requested by a cardholder but which are denied
by a bank). Certain transactions on the Euronet network are not billable to
banks, and these are excluded for reporting purposes. The average number of
transactions processed each month at Euronet's ATMs over its entire network
increased on average approximately 26% per month in 1996 and 12.8% in 1997.
The number of transactions processed per month grew from 241,099 in January
1997 to 892,147 in December 1997. By the end of March 1998, the number of
transactions processed per month had reached 1,053,364. During 1996,
substantially all of the growth was in Hungary, since the Company had very few
ATMs in Poland. The Company believes that the lower average rates of
transaction growth in 1997 as compared with 1996 resulted from the relatively
higher number of ATMs which the Company operated in Poland, where card
issuance has grown slower than in Hungary.

The Company's experience during 1997 has been that transaction growth varies
substantially from one month to another. For example, transaction growth was
3% in April and 5% in June, but was 21% in July and 23% in December. The
number of transactions decreased in January in each of 1996 and 1997 by 3% and
5%, respectively. The Company believes this shrinkage results from the fact
that consumers have less funds available during the period immediately
following Christmas.

51
<PAGE>

The transaction volumes processed on any given ATM are affected by a number
of factors, including location of the ATM and the amount of time the ATM has
been installed at that location. The Company's experience is that the number
of transactions on a newly installed ATM is initially very low and increases
for a period of three to six months after installation as consumers become
familiar with the location of the machine. Because the Company is continuing
to build out its ATM network rapidly, the number of newly installed machines
is relatively high in proportion to older machines. The Company anticipates
that the number of transactions per machine will increase as the network
matures and card issuance continues.

ATM NETWORK TECHNOLOGY

The Company uses IBM/Diebold and NCR ATMs. It currently has long term
contracts with these manufacturers to purchase these ATMs at contractually
defined prices which include tiered quantity discounts. However, there are no
contractually defined commitments with respect to quantities to be purchased.
Because Euronet is one of the largest purchasers of new ATMs in Europe, it has
substantial negotiating leverage with ATM manufacturers and believes it has
received favorable prices as compared with lower volume purchasers. The wide
range of advanced technology available from IBM/Diebold and NCR provides
Euronet customers with state-of-the-art-electronics features and reliability
through sophisticated diagnostics and self-testing routines. The different
machine types can perform basic functions, such as dispensing cash and
displaying account information, as well as provide revenue opportunities for
advertising and selling products through use of color monitor graphics,
receipt message printing, and coupon dispensing. The Company's ATMs are
modular and upgradable so that they can be adapted to provide additional
services in response to changing technology and consumer demand. In many
respects, Euronet's ATMs are more technologically advanced and more adaptable
than many older ATMs in use in more developed ATM markets. This allows the
Company to modify its ATMs to provide new services without replacing its
existing network infrastructure.

Strong back office central processing support is a critical factor in the
successful operation of an ATM network. Each ATM is connected to Euronet's
Processing Center through land-based and satellite telecommunications. Because
the Company strives to ensure western levels of reliability for its network,
it currently relies primarily on satellite telecommunications for ATM
connections to its Processing Center. Except in Germany, all ATMs in the
network are linked through VSAT telecommunications to the Processing Center,
and the Processing Center is, in most cases, linked by VSAT telecommunications
to the Card Issuers. The VSAT telecommunications providers generally guarantee
uninterrupted service for 99% of the time. The Company strives to continually
improve the terms of its agreements with its telecommunications providers and
intends to enter into multi-country agreements with lower rates for service.
The Company's agreements with its satellite telecommunications providers
contain certain assurances with respect to the repair of satellite malfunction
to ensure continuous reliable communications for the network. As the
reliability of land based telecommunications improves, the Company may rely
more heavily on them because they are generally less expensive than satellite
telecommunications.

The Processing Center, which is located in Euronet's Budapest office, is
staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It consists of two production IBM
AS400 computers which run the ARKSYS Gold Net ATM software package, as well as
a real time back up A/S 400. The back up machine provides high availability
during a failure of either production A/S 400. The Processing Center also
includes two A/S 400's used for product and connection testing and
development. The ARKSYS software is a state-of-the-art software package that
conforms to all relevant industry standards and has been installed in 64
countries worldwide. The Processing Center's computers operate Euronet's ATMs
and interface with the local bank and international transaction authorization
centers.

To protect against power fluctuations or short term interruptions, the
Processing Center has full uninterruptable power supply systems with battery
back-up to service the network in case of a power failure. The Processing
Center's data back-up systems would prevent the loss of transaction records
due to power failure and permit the orderly shutdown of the switch in an
emergency.

52
<PAGE>

The Company is formulating plans to create an off-site disaster recovery
back up system to provide protection against both natural and man-made
disasters. Because such a disaster recovery site would require duplication of
all of the telecommunications and processing capabilities of the Company at a
second location, the Company has estimated the cost of such center at $1
million if it is required to establish the site on its own. Euronet had
intended to put such a center in place in Hungary in 1997, but the high cost
of such a system has led the Company to seek methods of reducing the cost (for
example by having the center placed in a hub maintained by one of the
Company's telecommunications providers) or using the equipment in the recovery
site to meet other requirements arising as a result of the geographical
expansion of the Company's business, in particular a requirement that the
Company process its German transactions in a member state of the European
Union. The Company now expects to establish such back up site by mid-1999.

COMPETITION

Competitive factors in the Company's business are network availability and
response time, price both to the Card Issuer and to its customers, ATM
location and access to other networks. Principal competitors of the Company
include ATM networks owned by banks. Larger banks, in particular, may be able
to develop their own network of ATMs. Because banks control the relationship
with their cardholders, they may promote the use of their own ATM networks by
charging through to customers a higher fee for use of the Euronet network. The
Company seeks to counter such charge through by contractual provisions and
offering additional services (such as bill payment) to the banks and their
customers. Certain national networks consisting of consortiums of banks also
compete with the Company. In the Czech Republic, ISC MUZO (formed by a
consortium of four banks) offers ATM driving and switching services in
addition to point of sale services to Czech banks. PolCard in Poland (formed
by a consortium of 11 banks) provides point of sale services, card management
services, switching services, and ATM driving services to customer banks. The
Company expects that ATM transactions will eventually be switched from PolCard
to and from Euronet. In Hungary, certain banks established a jointly owned
company in 1989, called Giro Bankcard Rt., to develop a central switch for ATM
transactions which would permit those banks to switch transactions among
themselves in a fashion similar to Euronet. However, the membership in this
company has been limited to six banks and during 1997, the Company has
established direct connections to two of the member banks, Postabank and
Mezobank. As a result of the Company's connection, transactions for these
banks no longer transit through the Giro Bankcard system.

EMPLOYEES

The Company's business is highly automated and it out-sources many of its
specialized, repetitive functions such as ATM maintenance and installation,
cash delivery and security. As a result, the Company's labor requirements for
operation of the network are relatively modest and are centered on monitoring
activities to ensure service quality and cash reconciliation and control. The
Company also has a customer service department to interface with cardholders
to investigate and resolve reported problems in processing transactions.

However, Euronet's roll out of ATMs, its development of new products and
individual bank connections and its expansion into new markets creates a
substantial need to increase existing staff on many levels. The Company
requires skilled staff to identify desirable locations for ATMs and negotiate
ATM lease agreements. Euronet is also expanding its systems department to add
new technical personnel and recruiting strong business leadership for new
markets. In addition, the need to ensure consistency in quality and approach
in new markets and proper coordination and administration of the Company's
expansion, is leading the Company to recruit additional staff in the areas of
financial analysis, project management, human resources, communications,
marketing and sales. The Company has a program of continual recruitment of
superior talent whenever it is identified and ongoing building of skill for
existing staff. The Company believes that its future success will depend in
part on its ability to continue to recruit, retain and motivate qualified
management, technical and administrative employees.

53
<PAGE>

As of December 31, 1996, the Company and its subsidiaries had 58 full-time
employees, 36 of which were located in its Budapest office, 21 in its Warsaw
office and 1 in its Frankfurt office. As of March 31, 1998 the number of
employees was 194 full-time employees, with 87 located in Hungary, 73 in
Poland, 7 in the Czech Republic, 10 in Germany, 11 in Croatia, 4 in Romania
and 2 in France. The Company has created a central "head office" organization
in Budapest which is independent of the Hungarian country operations and
dedicated to overall management of the Company's business.

None of the Company's or its subsidiaries' employees are currently
represented by a union. The Company has never experienced any work stoppages
or strikes.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

The Company has received interpretative letters from the Hungarian Bank
Supervisory Board and the Polish National Bank to the effect that the business
activities of the Company in those jurisdictions do not constitute "financial
activities" subject to licensing. In addition, the Company has received advice
to the effect that its activities in each of its other markets do not
currently require it to obtain licenses. Any expansion of the activity of the
Company into areas which are qualified as "financial activity" under local
legislation may subject the Company to licensing, and the Company may be
required to comply with various conditions in order to obtain such licenses.
Moreover, the interpretations of bank regulatory authorities as to the
activity of the Company as currently conducted might change in the future. The
Company monitors its business for compliance with applicable laws or
regulations regarding financial activities.

The Company is considering expansion into France, whose laws relative to the
operation of ATMs are similar to those of Germany. Expansion into France would
require the Company to establish and thereafter maintain a relationship with
one or more French financial institutions. Although the Company has not yet
identified a French financial institution, it has retained a managing director
for France, and is exploring potential relationships with French financial
institutions and searching for potential ATM locations. There can be no
assurance as to when or if the Company will be able to establish the necessary
relationship for the commencement of operations in France.

The Company wishes to offer the widest possible range of services on its
network and is considering taking steps to obtain a limited financial activity
licenses in some markets to be able to expand its services.

PROPERTY

The Company's executive offices and Processing Center are located in
Budapest. The Company also maintains offices in Warsaw, Zagreb, Berlin, Paris,
Prague, Bucharest, Krakow and Szczecin. All of the Company's offices are
leased. The Company's office leases provide for initial terms of 24 to 60
months, except the leases in Krakow and Szczecin, which are for an indefinite
term.

54
<PAGE>

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

The Company has made an assessment of the impact of the advent of the year
2000 on its systems and operations. The Processing Center will require certain
upgrades which have been ordered and are scheduled for installation by the
fourth quarter 1998. Most of the ATMs in the Euronet network are not year 2000
compliant, and hardware and software upgrades will be installed under contract
with Company's Euronet's ATM maintenance vendors. According to the Company's
current estimates, the cost will be approximately $1,000 per ATM, and the
required installation will be finished by the end of 1998. The Company
estimates that approximately 560 of its ATMs will require upgrades for year
2000 compliance.

TRADEMARKS

The Company has filed applications for registration of certain of its
trademarks including the names "Euronet" and "Bankomat" and/or the blue
diamond logo in Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Sweden, France
and the United Kingdom. Applications have been granted in Hungary and Croatia
but are still pending in the other countries. The Company has received a
certificate of registration of the"Euronet" and "Bankomat" trademarks in
various countries. Such registrations will become definitive only after
verification of availability and compliance with procedural requirements in
the local countries covered by the registration.

The Company does not hold the Euronet trademark in Germany, France or
certain other Western European countries due to prior registrations by other
Companies. For the time being, the Company does not "brand" ATMs or otherwise
use the Euronet trademark in these countries, except as permissible as a
corporate name. The Company is developing an alternative trademark and
corporate identity for European countries in which the Euronet name is not
available and non-European countries.

LITIGATION

The Company is not currently involved in any material legal proceedings.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

Mr. Brown serves as the Chief Executive Officer, President and Chairman of
the Board of the Company pursuant to an employment agreement dated December
17, 1996. Under the terms of his agreement, Mr. Brown is entitled to an annual
salary of $100,000, subject to annual review and adjustments by the Board of
Directors, and is reimbursed for all reasonable and proper business expenses
incurred by him in the performance of his duties under the agreement. The
terms of the agreement also provide that Mr. Brown will be entitled to fringe
benefits and perquisites comparable to those provided to any or all of the
Company's senior officers. The term of the agreement expires in December 1999.
The term of the agreement, however, will be automatically extended on the same
terms and conditions for successive periods of one year each unless declined
by either party for any reason. In the event that Mr. Brown's employment with
the Company is terminated by the Company for Cause (as defined in the
agreement), or if Mr. Brown voluntarily terminates employment with the
Company, he will be entitled to receive all compensation, benefits and
reimbursable expenses accrued as of the date of such termination. In the event
that Mr. Brown's employment with the Company is terminated by reason of death
or Disability (as defined in the agreement), he (or his designated
beneficiary) will be paid his annual salary at the rate then in effect for an
additional one-year period. The agreement also contains certain non-
competition, non-solicitation and non-disclosure covenants.

The Company has also entered into employment agreements with Messrs. Henry,
Depenbusch, Newman and Colwill, all of which expire in December 1999. The
terms of these employment agreements are substantially similar to those
contained in Mr. Brown's employment agreement.

STOCK OPTION PLANS

Milestone Options. In accordance with a shareholders' agreement, dated
February 15, 1996, as amended October 14, 1996 (the "Shareholders'
Agreement"), the Company has reserved a total of 2,050,405 shares of Common
Stock for issuance pursuant to stock options (the "Milestone Options") granted
under the Shareholders' Agreement to Mr. Brown and Mr. Henry, as well as
certain other key employees of the Company. The Milestone Options are subject
to the provisions of the Euronet Long-Term Incentive Stock Option Plan. See
"--The Long-Term Incentive Plan." The Milestone Options granted to Mr. Brown,
Mr. Henry and Mr. Depenbusch have an exercise price equal to $2.14 per share
and vest and become exercisable upon the earlier of October 14, 2006, or the
date on which any one or more of the three performance goals described in the
Shareholders' Agreement is attained. One-third of the Milestone Options vest
upon the occurrence of each milestone. The Milestone Options granted to Mr.
Brown, Mr. Henry and Mr. Depenbusch are fully vested and exercisable.
Milestone Options allocated at Mr. Brown's discretion to other management and
key employees also have an exercise price of $2.14 per share and become
exercisable in three equal installments between 1997 and 2000. See "Certain
Transactions."

The Long-Term Incentive Plan. The Euronet Long-Term Incentive Stock Option
Plan (the "Plan") was adopted by the Company on December 17, 1996. Pursuant to
the provisions of the Plan, employees and consultants of the Company may be
offered the opportunity to acquire shares of Common Stock by the grant of non-
qualified stock options ("Options"). A total of 1,299,550 shares of Common
Stock have been reserved for issuance pursuant to Options under the Plan.
Options to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company may

61
<PAGE>

be granted to eligible employees and consultants, as determined by the Board
of Directors, in amounts reflecting the employee's or consultant's employment
responsibilities and level of performance. The Options vest in five equal
annual installments of 20% of the grant, and have a term of ten years from
grant date. Once vested, the Options may be exercised in whole or part. The
Plan also incorporates various prior grants of Milestone Options under the
Shareholders' Agreement. In addition to Milestone Options, as of the date of
this Prospectus non-qualified stock options have been granted to certain
employees of the Company, including 440,440 Options to Mr. Henry, 287,000 to
Mr. Depenbusch and 335,510 in the aggregate to other key employees. The
Company is considering the adoption of a new stock option plan pursuant to
which options to purchase 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock may be granted to
directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company. Such plan,
which would be subject to stockholder approval, would provide for the issuance
of incentive and non-qualified options the terms of which would be similar to
those issued under the Plan.

Determination of Option Exercise Price. The Company has granted the options
described above at an exercise price based on the estimated fair market value
of the underlying shares of Common Stock. Fair market value has been
determined by taking into consideration the per share price at which the most
recent sale of equity securities was made by the Company to new investors,
with the exception of Milestone Options issued on October 14, 1996 and
Incentive Stock Options issued in the last quarter of 1996, all with an
exercise price of $2.14 per share. The fair market value of the shares
underlying the options issued on October 14, 1996 and those issued during the
last quarter of 1996 was determined to be $4.22 per share which is the cash
price for the sale of shares in the third party purchase of shares in February
1997. Subsequent to the 1997 equity offer, the exercise price for option
grants under the Plan is equal to the closing sale price on the NASDAQ
National Market.

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

FINANCINGS

Between June 22, 1994 and the present, the Company and its existing
shareholders engaged in several transactions to provide the Company (including
its predecessors and operating subsidiaries) with necessary financing. These
transactions are summarized below. For the convenience of the reader all

National Bank of Hungary on the date such capital contributions were made and
all amounts of capital contributions made in Polish zlotys have been
translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate quoted by the National Bank
of Poland at noon on the date such capital contributions were made.

Formation of the Company. Bank Access 24 Kft. ("Bank 24"), the predecessor
of the Hungarian operating subsidiary of the Company, was established on June
22, 1994 by Michael Brown and Daniel Henry, both of whom are Directors of the
Company. Mr. Brown received a 90% equity interest in Bank 24 in consideration

(the "Original JVA") was entered into by Mr. Brown and DST Systems, Inc.,
Euroventures (Hungary) B.V. ("Euroventures"), Mark Callegari, Larry Maddox and
Lawrence Schwartz. The Original JVA provided that the parties to the Original
JVA would contribute capital to Bank 24 in exchange for ownership interests in
Bank 24 in the following amounts:

<TABLE>

Original JVA, Mr. Brown was granted an additional 8% equity interest in Bank

Capital Increase and Amendment of Original JVA. On February 20, 1995, the

Enterprise Fund ("HAEF"), and Euroventures agreed to purchase from a third
party 100% of the equity interests in SatComNet Kft., which is now a

corporate entity.

Under the Amended JVA, Mr. Henry was granted an option to purchase up to 6%
of the shares of each of Bank 24 and SatComNet for a total purchase price of
$246,000.

Hi-Care entered into a lease with Bank 24 effective as of September 10, 1994

Pursuant to the Shareholders' Agreement, Euronet Holding N.V. was entitled
to call a "standby round" of investment from DST Systems, Inc., Poland
Partners L.P., Hungarian Private Equity Fund and the Advent Private Equity
Fund CELP of up to $3,000,000 in the aggregate from such shareholders at a per
share price of $2.14 for one tranche and $10.00 per share for a second tranche
subject to certain conditions. The first tranche of this standby round was
called on November 26, 1996 and 466,669 Series B convertible preferred shares
of Euronet Holding N.V. were issued in exchange for $1 million. The Company's
right to call the remainder of the standby round commitment terminated on the
termination of the Shareholders' Agreement which occurred on March 7, 1997 in
connection with the equity offering.

In addition, the Shareholders' Agreement provided that Mr. Brown would be
reimbursed by the shareholders for up to $100,000 for expenses incurred from
December 1994 to May 1995, and by the Company for expenses incurred from June
1, 1995 to March 27, 1996 relating to the establishment of Bankomat. On
October 11, 1996, Euronet Holding N.V. adopted a revision to its Articles of
Association effecting a ten for one stock split.

On October 14, 1996, the Shareholders' Agreement was amended (the "First
Amendment") and the Milestone Award arrangements were modified to provide for
two different types of grants:

(i) Milestone Awards of preferred shares of Euronet Holding N.V. in
exchange for payment of par value ($0.02), to all Original Investors except
Mr. Brown;

(ii) Options to purchase Common Shares and preferred stock of Euronet
Holding N.V. to Mr. Brown, and options to purchase preferred shares of
Euronet Holding N.V. to Mr. Henry, Mr. Depenbusch and certain other
employees of the group at a purchase price of $2.14 per share ("Milestone
Options"). The number of shares of Euronet Holding N.V. subject to these
option arrangements was increased as compared with the amounts that were to
be awarded under the Shareholder's Agreement to take into account the fact
that consideration was now to be paid for such shares. The following
numbers of Milestone Options were granted to directors and officers of the
Company: Michael Brown (1,149,890 of Common Shares and preferred stock of
Euronet Holding N.V.); Daniel Henry (599,340 preferred shares of Euronet
Holding N.V.); and Dennis Depenbusch (226,450 preferred shares of Euronet
Holding N.V.).

All Milestone Awards of Common Shares of Euronet Holding N.V. became
effective as of the closing of the 1997 equity offering and all Milestone
Options became vested upon the closing of the offering, with the exception of
49,819 Options to certain key employees which will vest equally in March of
1998 and 1999. See "Management--Stock Option Plans."

The Reorganization. In December 1996, the Company, shareholders and
optionholders of Euronet Holding N.V. entered into an Exchange Agreement
pursuant to which (i) 10,296,076 shares of Common Stock were to be

65
<PAGE>

issued to the shareholders of Euronet Holding N.V. in exchange for all of the
Common Shares of Euronet Holding N.V., (ii) options to acquire 3,113,355
shares of Common Stock were to be granted to the holders of options to acquire
3,113,355 Common Shares of Euronet Holding N.V. in exchange for all of such
options and (iii) awards with respect to 800,520 shares of Common Stock were
to be issued to the holders of awards with respect to 800,520 preferred shares
of Euronet Holding N.V. in exchange for all such awards. The exchange became
effective as of March 6, 1997, the date of the execution of the underwriting
agreement in connection with the Company's 1997 equity offering.

GE Capital Investment. On January 31, 1997, the Company signed a
subscription agreement (the "Subscription Agreement") with General Electric
Capital Corporation ("GE Capital") pursuant to which GE Capital agreed to
subscribe for preferred stock of Euronet Holding N.V. for an aggregate
purchase price of $3 million which entitled GE Capital to receive 710,507
shares of Common Stock of the Company in connection with the Reorganization,
resulting in a per share purchase price of $4.22. Under a "claw back" option,
the Company retained the right to repurchase up to 292,607 of such shares for
nominal consideration in the event of a public or private offering of the
Company's Common Stock, if the Company was attributed a valuation that is
higher than that used for purposes of the Subscription Agreement, including
the 1997 equity offering. The conditions for the exercise of this option were
met and the Company exercised this option on June 16, 1997. The Company
repurchased all 292,607 shares from GE Capital for a price of approximately
$4,000. These shares are currently held in treasury.

The Subscription Agreement also included certain reciprocal rights of the
parties to act as preferred providers of services to each other in Poland,
Hungary, the Czech Republic, Germany and Austria. In particular, the Company
is a preferred provider of outsourced ATM services to certain banks affiliated
with GE Capital and GE Capital is a preferred provider of equipment financing
and satellite telecommunications to the Company.

Initial Public Offering. On March 7, 1997, the Company completed an initial
public offering of its Common Shares. The following transactions occurred in
connection with the offering:

(i) the Reorganization became effective;

(ii) the Shareholders' Agreement was terminated;

(iii) Michael Brown exercised Milestone Options to purchase 149,492
shares and sold them in the offering together with 205,023 shares which he
held directly prior to the offering, resulting in total net proceeds to him
of approximately $4,226,000.

(iv) Daniel Henry exercised Milestone and Incentive options to purchase
103,985 shares of the Company's stock and sold them in the offering,
resulting in net proceeds to him of approximately $1,174,000.

(v) Dennis Depenbusch exercised Milestone and Incentive options to
purchase 51,345 shares of the Company's stock and sold them in the
offering, resulting in net proceeds to him of approximately $569,000.

(vi) all of the shareholders of the Company as of March 6, 1997 except
DST Systems, Inc. sold 25% of the shares held as of that time, including
the following shareholders who held over 10% of the shares prior to the
offering: Michael J. Brown; HAEF, which sold 350,753 shares for total net
proceeds of approximately $4,493,000; and Poland Partners which sold
525,000 shares for total net proceeds of approximately $6,733,000.

(vii) the Company issued and sold in the offering a total of 3,833,650
shares, including 795,000 shares which were purchased by the underwriters
pursuant to their over-allotment option. Total net proceeds to the Company
in the offering were approximately $47,857,000.

ATM Purchase Option. On March 10, 1995, Bank 24 entered into a Master Rental
Agreement with HFT Corporation ("HFT") pursuant to which HFT agreed to lease
ATM machines to Bank 24 pursuant to operating leases which are treated, for
U.S. GAAP purposes only, as capital leases. On the same date, HFT granted an
option to purchase the ATM machines which were the subject of this Master
Rental Agreement to Windham

66
<PAGE>

Technologies, a company controlled by Michael Brown and Mark Callegari. On
March 25, 1995, Windham Technologies executed a unilateral undertaking (the
"Undertaking") to sell such machines to Bank 24 for a purchase price which was
equal to the price paid by Windham, plus incidental expenses. All ATMs
operated by the Company are subject to this arrangement. As indicated in
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations", the Company intends to restructure these arrangements as capital
leases under Hungarian law and has recorded an accrual in this respect.

Windham Technologies Inc. Windham Technologies Inc. ("Windham") holds the
option to purchase certain ATMs at the end of the lease term. Windham is
jointly owned by two shareholders of Euronet Holding N.V. Windham has signed
an undertaking to contribute these assets to Euronet Holding N.V. at the end
of the lease at a bargain purchase price of $1 plus incidental expenses.

In addition, payments of $94,000, $425,000, $320,000 and $66,000 have been
made for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, for the period from
June 22, 1994 (inception) through December 31, 1994, respectively, to Windham.
These payments cover the services and related expenses of consultants seconded
by Windham to Euronet Holding N.V. These services include AS400 computer
expertise, bank marketing and management support.

See "Description of Capital Stock--Registration Rights" for information
regarding the right of certain directors or officers and their affiliates to
require the Company to file a registration statement covering the public sale
by such persons of the shares of common stock owned by them, and to pay all of
the costs and expenses associated therewith, other than underwriting discounts
and fees.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

GENERAL

The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 30 million shares of
Common Stock, par value $0.02 per share and 10 million shares of Preferred
Stock, par value $0.02 per share. The following summary description of the
capital stock of the Company does not purport to be complete and is subject to
the detailed provisions of, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to,
the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, copies of which have been filed
as exhibits to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part,
and to the applicable provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State
of Delaware (the "DGCL").

COMMON STOCK

The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of
record on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. Subject to the
rights of any holders of Preferred Stock, holders of Common Stock are entitled
to receive ratably such dividends as may be declared by the Board of Directors
out of funds legally available. See "Dividend Policy" and "Description of
Senior Discount Notes" regarding the limitation on the Company's right to
declare and pay a dividend on its Preferred and Common Stock. In the event of
a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, holders of the Common
Stock are entitled to share ratably in the distribution of all assets
remaining after payment of liabilities, subject to the rights of any holders
of Preferred Stock. The holders of Common Stock have no preemptive rights to
subscribe for additional shares of the Company and no right to convert their
Common Stock into any other securities. In addition, there are no redemption
or sinking fund provisions applicable to the Common Stock. All the outstanding
shares of Common Stock are fully paid and non-assessable.

PREFERRED STOCK

The Board of Directors is authorized, without further action by the
stockholders, to issue any or all shares of authorized Preferred Stock as a
class without series or in one or more series and to fix the rights,
preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof, including dividend rights,
conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, liquidation preferences
and the number of shares constituting any series. The issuance of Preferred
Stock could adversely affect the voting power of holders of Common Stock and
could have the effect of delaying, deferring or impeding a change in control
of the Company. As of the date of this Prospectus, the Company has not
authorized the issuance of any Preferred Stock and there are no plans,
agreements or understandings for the issuance of any shares of Preferred
Stock.

CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE COMPANY'S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS

Certain provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the
Company summarized below may be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect and may
delay, defer or make more difficult a takeover attempt that a stockholder
might consider in its best interest. A change of control provision in the
Indenture under which the Notes are to be issued also will delay or make more
difficult a takeover attempt. See "Risk Factors--Anti- takeover Provisions"
and "Description of Senior Discount Notes." Set forth below is a description
of certain provisions of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and
Bylaws.

The Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Board of Directors of the
Company be divided into three classes of directors serving staggered three-
year terms. The classes of directors will be as nearly equal in number as
possible. Accordingly, approximately one-third of the company's Board of
Directors will be elected each year. See "Management--Directors, Executive
Officers and Other Key Employees." The Certificate of Incorporation provides
that the number of directors will be determined by the Board of Directors.

The Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides that no director of the
Company shall be liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary
damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i)
for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Company or its
stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions

70
<PAGE>

not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing
violation of laws, (iii) in respect of certain unlawful dividend payments or
stock redemptions or repurchases pursuant to Section 174 of the DGCL or (iv)
for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit. The effect of these provisions is to eliminate the rights of the
Company and its stockholders (through stockholders' derivative suits on behalf
of the Company) to recover monetary damages against a director for breach of
fiduciary duty as a director (including breaches resulting from grossly
negligent behavior), except in the situations described above. These
provisions may not limit the liability of directors under federal securities
laws.

SECTION 203 OF DELAWARE GENERAL CORPORATION LAW

Section 203 of the DGCL prohibits certain transactions between a Delaware
corporation and an "interested stockholder," which is defined as a person who,
together with any affiliates or associates of such person, beneficially owns,
directly or indirectly, 15% or more of the outstanding voting shares of a
Delaware corporation. This provision prohibits certain business combinations
(defined broadly to include mergers, consolidations, sales or other
dispositions of assets having an aggregate value in excess of 10% of the
consolidated assets of the corporation, and certain transactions that would
increase the interested stockholder's proportionate share ownership in the
corporation) between an interested stockholder and a corporation for a period
of three years after the date the interested stockholder becomes an interested
stockholder, unless (i) the business combination is approved by the
corporation's board of directors prior to the date the interested stockholder
becomes an interested stockholder, (ii) the interested stockholder acquired at
least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation (other than stock held by
directors who are also officers or by certain employee stock plans) in the
transaction in which it becomes an interested stockholder or (iii) the
business combination is approved by a majority of the board of directors and
by the affirmative vote of 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not
owned by the interested stockholder.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Pursuant to an agreement (the "Registration Rights Agreement") dated March
13, 1996, among Euronet Holding N.V. (the predecessor to the Company) and the
following shareholders: Advent Private Equity Fund CELP, Poland Investment
Fund, the Hungarian Private Equity Fund L.P., Poland Partners L.P., Michael J.
Brown, Larry Maddox, Mark Callegari, Lawrence Schwartz, DST Systems, Inc.,
Euroventures and HAEF (each a "Holder" and collectively the "Holders"), the
Holders and all other shareholders were granted certain rights with respect to
the registration of their shares of Common Stock under the Securities Act.

Under the terms of such agreement, Holders of no less than 12% of the shares
of Common Stock of the Company can demand that the Company effect up to four
registrations of the Common Stock under the Securities Act with respect to all
or any portion of their shares provided that each demand relates to a
registration of at least $4 million worth of Common Stock. The Company can
delay such a demand for a period not in excess of 120 days, and not more than
once in any 12 month period, if at the time of such demand the Company is in
the process of preparing a registration statement for a public offering (other
than a registration statement solely to implement an employee benefit plan or
a transaction to which Rule 145 of the Securities Act is applicable) which is
filed and becomes effective within 90 days after such demand.

In addition, if the Company at any time initiates a registration under the
Securities Act (other than a registration effected solely to implement an
employee benefit plan or a transaction to which Rule 145 of the Securities Act
is applicable), all shareholders are entitled to notice of such registrations
and to include their shares of Common Stock in such registration subject to
certain limitations.

After the Company has qualified for use of Form S-3, all shareholders will
have the right to request an unlimited number of registrations on Form S-3
(but the Holders as a group may not make more than two such requests in any
given 12 month period and not more than four in the aggregate), provided that
the aggregate offering price of such shareholder's shares of Common Stock
exceeds $500,000 and the Company has initiated a proposed registration. The
Company can delay such a request for a period not in excess of 120 days if at
the

71
<PAGE>

time of such request the Company is in the process of preparing a registration
statement for a public offering (other than a registration statement solely to
implement an employee benefit plan or a transaction to which Rule 145 of the
Securities Act is applicable) which is filed and becomes effective within 90
days after such request.

In all cases the registration rights are subject to certain conditions and
limitations, including the right of the underwriters of an offering to limit
the number of shareholders' shares to be included in such registration. The
Company is required to bear the expenses of all such registrations, except for
underwriters' fees, discounts and commissions. Registration rights are
assignable to any assignee of at least 50% of shares conveyed who agrees to be
bound by the terms and conditions of the Registration Rights Agreement within
ten days of such assignment.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

An aggregate of approximately 8,960,000 shares held by directors, officers,
promoters and initial investors may be sold by such persons pursuant to Rule
144 and are subject to the registration rights agreement requiring the Company
to register such shares for resale. In addition, Michael Brown and the other
existing shareholders of the Company were granted rights entitling them, under
specified circumstances, to cause the Company to register for sale all or part
of their shares of Common Stock and to include such shares in any registered
public offerings of shares of Common Stock by the Company. See "--Registration
Rights." In addition, of the 2,798,206 options outstanding, 1,984,365 are
currently exercisable. Any Shares issued on the exercise of these options
would be available for sale subject to Rule 701 or another exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act (including Regulation S under
the Securities Act). Furthermore, the Company has registered under the
Securities Act approximately 2,000,000 Shares of Common Stock that may be
issued to the Company's employees and directors under its employee benefits
plans. See "Management."

The availability of all such shares for sale in the market may have an
effect on the Company's ability to sell shares of Common Stock in the future.

TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR

The transfer agent and registrar for the Common Stock is State Street Bank
and Trust Company.

72
<PAGE>

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

The Notes offered hereby will be issued under an indenture to be dated as of
June , 1998 (the "Indenture") between the Issuer and State Street Bank and
Trust Company, as trustee (the "Trustee") which will be subject to and
governed by the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "Trust Indenture
Act"). The following summary of certain provisions of the Notes and the
Indenture does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in
its entirety by reference to, the provisions of the Notes and the Indenture,
including the definitions of certain terms contained therein and those terms
made part of the Indenture through the incorporation by reference of the Trust
Indenture Act. Copies of the Indenture are available upon request from the
Issuer or the Trustee. For definitions of certain capitalized terms used in
this summary, see "--Certain Definitions" below.

GENERAL

The Notes will mature on , 2006, will be limited to DM million
aggregate principal amount at maturity and will be senior, unsecured
obligations of the Issuer. The issue price of the Notes (for purposes of
calculating Accreted Value) will be DM per DM1,000 principal amount at
maturity of the Notes.

The Indenture does not contain any provisions requiring the Issuer to pay
any additional amounts to holders of Notes with respect to any deductions or
withholding that may be required in respect of any present or future taxes,
assessments or other governmental charges of the United States. See "Certain
United States Federal Income Tax Considerations -- Information Report and
Backup Withholding."

Application has been made to list the Notes on the Luxembourg Stock
Exchange.

INTEREST

The Notes are being offered at a substantial discount from their principal
amount at maturity. Although for U.S. federal income tax purposes a
significant amount of original issue discount, taxable as ordinary income,
will be recognized by a holder as such discount accrues from the Issue Date,
no cash interest will be payable on the Notes prior to , 2002. Each Note
will bear cash interest at the rate set forth on the cover page hereof from
, 2002 or from the most recent interest payment date (each, an "Interest
Payment Date") to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, payable
on and in each year until the principal thereof is paid or duly
provided for to the Person in whose name the Note (or any predecessor Note) is
registered at the close of business on the or next preceding such
Interest Payment Date. Based on the foregoing, the yield to maturity of each
Note will be % (computed on a semiannual bond equivalent basis). Interest
will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day
months. If the Issuer defaults on any payment of principal, whether at
maturity, redemption or otherwise, interest will continue to accrue and, to
the extent permitted by law, cash interest will accrue on overdue installments
of interest at the rate of interest borne by the Notes.

FORM OF NOTES

The Notes will be represented by two permanent global notes (the "Global
Notes"), without coupons, in denominations of DM1,000 and integral multiples
thereof. Notes sold outside the United States will be represented by a single,
permanent global note in bearer form, deposited with DBC (the "DBC Global
Note"), which will represent the Notes held by account holders in DBC,
including such Notes held through Euroclear and Cedel, each of which has an
account with DBC. Notes sold to U.S. investors will be represented by a
permanent global note in registered form deposited with a custodian for, and
registered in the name of, DTC or its nominee (the "DTC Global Note"). Except
as set forth in "--Description of Book-Entry System; Payment; Transfers",
owners of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will not receive or be
entitled to receive physical delivery of Notes in definitive form and will not
be considered the owners or Holders thereof under the Indenture. No service
charge will be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, but
the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax
or other similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

73
<PAGE>

PAYMENT CURRENCY

The Issuer will make payment of any amounts owing in respect of the Global
Notes to DBC or Cede & Co., the nominee of DTC, as holder of the DBC Global
Note and the DTC Global Note, respectively, through Paying Agents (as defined
below) appointed under the Indenture and will pay amounts to the Paying Agents
in Deutsche Marks. State Street Bank and Trust Company will act as paying
agent in respect of the Notes represented by the DTC Global Note (the "U.S.
Paying Agent") and as a foreign exchange dealer for purposes of converting
Deutsche Marks to U.S. dollars. The amounts owing in respect of the Global
Notes that will be converted into U.S. dollars will depend upon the election
of the holders of interests in the DTC Global Note as to whether to receive
payment of principal and interest in Deutsche Marks. All holders of interests
in the DBC Global Note (including holders through Euroclear and Cedel) will
receive Deutsche Marks in respect of payments of principal and interest. All
holders of interests in the DTC Global Note will receive U.S. dollars in
respect of payments of principal and interest unless they elect to receive
such payments in Deutsche Marks by following the procedure set forth in the
Indenture. See "--Description of Book-Entry System; Payment; Transfers--
Payment."

SUBSTITUTION OF CURRENCY

Although there can be no assurance that a single European currency will be
adopted or, if adopted, on what time schedule, the Treaty on the European
Union provides for the introduction of the Euro in substitution for the
national currencies of the member states which adopt the Euro. If the Federal
Republic of Germany adopts the Euro, the regulations of the European
Commission relating to the Euro shall apply to the Notes and the Indenture.
The circumstances and consequences described in this paragraph entitle neither
the Issuer nor any holders of Notes to early redemption, rescission, notice,
repudiation, adjustment or renegotiation of the terms and conditions of the
Notes or the Indenture or to raise other defenses or to request any
compensation claim, nor will they affect any of the other obligations of the
Issuer under the Notes and the Indenture.

RANKING

The Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes will rank pari passu in right of
payment with all other existing and future senior unsecured obligations of the
Issuer (except for any obligations preferred by law) and senior in right of
payment to all future obligations of the Issuer expressly subordinated in
right of payment to the Notes. As of March 31, 1998, after giving pro forma
effect to the Offering and the application of the net proceeds therefrom, the
Indebtedness of the Issuer would have been approximately $103.3 million, of
which $3.3 million would have been secured Indebtedness. Subject to certain
limitations, the Issuer may incur additional Indebtedness in the future,
including secured Indebtedness.

The Issuer is a holding company with no direct operations and no significant
assets other than the stock of its subsidiaries. The Issuer will be dependent
on the cash flow of its subsidiaries to meet its obligations, including the
payment of interest and principal on the Notes. Its subsidiaries are separate
legal entities that have no obligations to pay any amounts due pursuant to the
Notes or to make any funds available therefor, whether by dividends, loans or
other payments. Because its subsidiaries will not guarantee the payment of the
principal or interest on the Notes, any right of the Issuer to receive assets
of its subsidiaries upon its liquidation or reorganization (and the consequent
right of holders of the Notes to participate in the distribution or realize
proceeds from those assets) will be effectively subordinated to the claims of
the creditors of its subsidiaries (including trade creditors and holders of
indebtedness of such subsidiary), except if and to the extent the Issuer is
itself a creditor of its subsidiaries, in which case the claims of the Issuer
may still be effectively subordinated to any security interest in the assets
of its subsidiaries held by other creditors. Accordingly, after giving effect
to the sale of the Notes and the application of the net proceeds therefrom, as
of March 31, 1998, holders of the Notes would have been effectively
subordinated to $8.6 million of indebtedness of subsidiaries of the Issuer.
For a discussion of certain adverse consequences of the Issuer being a holding
Issuer and of the terms of certain existing and potential future indebtedness
of the Issuer and its subsidiaries, see "Risk Factors--Holding Company
Structure; Reliance on Subsidiaries for Distributions to Repay Notes."

SINKING FUND

The Notes will not be entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund.

REDEMPTION

The Notes will be redeemable, at the option of the Issuer, in whole at any
time or from time to time in part, on or after , 2002 on not less than 30
nor more than 60 days' prior notice at the redemption prices (expressed as
percentages of principal amount at maturity) set forth below, together with
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date, if redeemed
during the 12-month period beginning on of the years indicated below
(subject to the right of holders of record on relevant record dates to receive
interest due on a relevant Interest Payment Date):

</TABLE>

At any time or from time to time prior to , 2001 the Issuer may redeem
within 60 days of one or more Equity Offerings up to 33 1/3% of the aggregate
principal amount at maturity of the originally issued Notes with all or a
portion of the net proceeds of such offering, at a redemption price equal to
% of the Accreted Value thereof as of the redemption date, together with
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption (subject to the
right of holders of record on relevant record dates to receive interest due on
relevant Interest Payment Dates); provided that immediately after giving
effect to any such redemption, at least 66 2/3% aggregate principal amount at
maturity of the originally issued Notes remains outstanding.

In addition, (i) upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each holder of
Notes shall have the right to require that the Issuer purchase such holder's
Notes, in whole or in part and in integral multiples of DM1,000 principal
amount at maturity, at a purchase price of 101% of the Accreted Value thereof,
together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption,
and (ii) upon the occurrence of an Asset Sale, the Issuer may be obligated to
make an offer to purchase all or a portion of the outstanding Notes at a price
of 100% of the Accreted Value thereof, together with accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, to the date of purchase (in each case, subject to the right
of holders of record on relevant record dates to receive interest due on
relevant Interest Payment Dates). See "--Certain Covenants--Purchase of Notes
upon a Change of Control" and "--Limitation on Sale of Assets," respectively.
The occurrence of any Change in Control will be announced in a daily newspaper
of general circulation in Luxembourg which is expected to be the Luxembourg
Wort.

If less than all the Notes are to be redeemed, the particular Notes to be
redeemed will be selected not more than 60 days prior to the redemption date
by the Trustee with any applicable rules of the securities exchange, if any,
on which the Notes are listed or, if there are no applicable rules, on a pro
rata basis, by lot or by such other method as such Trustee will deem fair and
appropriate; provided, however, that no Note of DM1,000 in principal amount at
maturity or less will be redeemed in part. Notice of redemption will be
mailed, first-class postage prepaid, and otherwise in accordance with the
procedures set forth under "--Notices," at least 30 but not more than 60 days
before the redemption date to each holder of Notes to be redeemed at its
registered address. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of
redemption that relates to such Note will state the portion of the principal
amount thereof to be redeemed. A new Note in a principal amount equal to the
unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the holder thereof
upon cancellation of the original Note. On and after the redemption date, cash
interest, or original issue discount, as the case may be, will cease to accrue
on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption and accepted for payment.

CERTAIN COVENANTS

The Indenture will contain, among others, the following covenants:

Limitation on Additional Indebtedness. The Issuer will not, and will not
permit any Restricted Subsidiary to Incur any Indebtedness (including any
Acquired Indebtedness), except for Permitted Indebtedness; provided that the
Issuer will be permitted to Incur Indebtedness if after giving pro forma
effect to such Incurrence (including the application of the net proceeds
therefrom), the ratio of (x) Total Consolidated Indebtedness outstanding as of
the date of such Incurrence to (y) Annualized Pro Forma Consolidated Operating
Cash Flow for the latest fiscal quarter for which consolidated financial
statements of the Issuer are available preceding the date of such Incurrence
would be greater than zero and less than or equal to (i) 6.0 to 1 if the
Indebtedness is Incurred prior to December 31, 1999 or (ii) 5.0 to 1 if the
Indebtedness is Incurred on or after December 31, 1999.

In making the foregoing calculation, pro forma effect will be given to: (i)
the Incurrence of such Indebtedness and (if applicable) the application of the
net proceeds therefrom, including to refinance other Indebtedness, as if such
Indebtedness was Incurred, and the application of such proceeds occurred, on
the first day of the latest fiscal quarter for which consolidated financial
statements of the Issuer are available immediately preceding the date of the
Incurrence of such Indebtedness, (ii) the Incurrence, repayment or retirement
of any other Indebtedness by the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries since
the first day of such fiscal quarter as if such Indebtedness were Incurred,
repaid or retired on the first day of such fiscal quarter (except that, in
making such calculation, the amount of Indebtedness under any revolving credit
facility shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such
Indebtedness during such fiscal quarter) and (iii) the acquisition (whether by
purchase, merger or otherwise) or disposition (whether by sale, merger or
otherwise) of any company, entity or business acquired or disposed of by the
Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, since the first day
of such fiscal quarter, as if such acquisition or disposition occurred on the
first day of such fiscal quarter.

For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, in the event that
an item of Indebtedness or any portion thereof meets the criteria of more than
one of the types of Indebtedness the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary is
permitted to Incur, the Issuer will have the right, in its sole discretion, to
classify such item of Indebtedness or portion thereof at the time of the
Incurrence and will only be required to include the amount and type of such
Indebtedness or portion thereof under the clause permitting the Indebtedness
so classified.

Limitation on Restricted Payments. (a) The Issuer will not, and will not
permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, take any of the
following actions:

(i) declare or pay any dividend on, or make any distribution to holders
of, any shares of the Capital Stock of the Issuer (other than dividends or
distributions payable solely in shares of its Qualified Capital Stock or in
options, warrants or other rights to acquire such shares of Qualified
Capital Stock);

(ii) purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value, directly
or indirectly, any shares of Capital Stock of the Issuer or any Capital
Stock of any Affiliate of the Issuer (other than Capital Stock of any
Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary) or any options, warrants or other
rights to acquire such shares of Capital Stock;

(iii) make any principal payment on, or repurchase, redeem, defease or
otherwise acquire or retire for value, prior to any scheduled principal
payment, sinking fund payment or maturity, any Subordinated Indebtedness
(other than any Subordinated Indebtedness owed to and held by a Restricted
Subsidiary);

(iv) make any Investment (other than any Permitted Investment and subject
to the provisions of the "Limitation on Investments in Unrestricted
Subsidiaries" covenant);

(v) create or assume any guarantee of Indebtedness of any Affiliate of
the Issuer (other than (i) guarantees of any Indebtedness of any Wholly
Owned Restricted Subsidiary by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary or
(ii) the guarantees of the Notes by any Restricted Subsidiary); or

(vi) declare or pay any dividend or distribution on any Capital Stock of
any Restricted Subsidiary to any Person (other than the Issuer or any of
its Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries or to all holders of Capital Stock
of such Restricted Subsidiary on a pro rata basis);

76
<PAGE>

(such payments or other actions described in (but not excluded from) clauses
(i) through (vi) are collectively referred to as "Restricted Payments"),
unless: (1) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing at the time of or after giving effect to such Restricted Payment;
(2) immediately after giving effect to such Restricted Payment, the Issuer
could incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness (other than Permitted
Indebtedness) pursuant to the "Limitation on Additional Indebtedness"
covenant; and (3) immediately after giving effect to such Restricted Payment,
the aggregate amount of all Restricted Payments declared or made on or after
the date of the Indenture would not exceed an amount equal to the sum of:

(A) 50% of cumulative Consolidated Adjusted Net Income (or, if the
Consolidated Adjusted Net Income is a deficit, minus 100% of the amount of
such deficit) of the Issuer during the period (taken as a single accounting
period) beginning on the first day of the fiscal quarter of the Issuer
beginning after the date of the Indenture and ending on the last day of the
last full fiscal quarter immediately preceding the date of such Restricted
Payment for which quarterly or annual consolidated financial statements of
the Issuer are available; plus

(B) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds received by the Issuer on or after
the date of the Indenture as capital contributions or from the issuance or
sale (other than to any Subsidiary) of shares of Qualified Capital Stock of
the Issuer (including upon the exercise of options, warrants or rights) or
warrants, options or rights to purchase shares of Qualified Capital Stock
of the Issuer; plus

(C) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds received after the date of the
Indenture by the Issuer from the issuance or sale (other than to any
Subsidiary) of debt securities or Redeemable Capital Stock that have been
converted into or exchanged for Qualified Capital Stock of the Issuer,
together with the aggregate net cash proceeds received by the Issuer at the
time of such conversion or exchange; plus

(D) to the extent not otherwise included in the Consolidated Adjusted Net
Income of the Issuer, an amount equal to the sum of (i) the net reduction
in Investments in any Person (other than Permitted Investments) resulting
from the payment in cash of dividends, repayments of loans or advances or
other transfers of assets, in each case to the Issuer or any Restricted
Subsidiary after the date of the Indenture from such Person and (ii) the
portion (proportionate to the Issuers equity interest in such Subsidiary)
of the fair market value of the net assets of any Unrestricted Subsidiary
at the time such Unrestricted Subsidiary is designated a Restricted
Subsidiary; provided, however, that in the case of (i) or (ii) above the
foregoing sum shall not exceed the amount of Investments previously made
(and treated as a Restricted Payment) by the Issuer or any Restricted
Subsidiary in such Person or Unrestricted Subsidiary.

(b) Notwithstanding paragraph (a) above, the Issuer and any Restricted
Subsidiary may take the following actions so long as (with respect to clauses
(ii), (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) below) no Default or Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing:

(i) the payment of any dividend within 60 days after the date of
declaration thereof, if at such date of declaration such dividend would
have complied with the provisions of paragraph (a) above and such payment
will be deemed to have been paid on such date of declaration for purposes
of the calculation required by paragraph (a) above;

(ii) the purchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for
value of any shares of Capital Stock of the Issuer, in exchange for, or out
of the net cash proceeds of a substantially concurrent issuance and sale
(other than to a Subsidiary) of, shares of Qualified Capital Stock of the
Issuer;

(iii) the purchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or
retirement for value of any Subordinated Indebtedness in exchange for or
out of the net cash proceeds of a substantially concurrent issuance and
sale (other than to a Subsidiary) of shares of Qualified Capital Stock of
the Issuer;

(iv) the purchase of any Subordinated Indebtedness at a purchase price
not greater than 101% of the principal amount thereof, together with
accrued interest, if any, thereof in the event of a Change of Control in
accordance with provisions similar to the "Purchase of Notes upon a Change
of Control" covenant; provided that prior to such purchase the Issuer has
made the Change of Control Offer as provided in such covenant with respect
to the Notes and has purchased all Notes validly tendered for payment in
connection with such Change of Control Offer;

77
<PAGE>

(v) Investments constituting Restricted Payments made as the result of
the receipt of non-cash consideration from any Asset Sale made in
compliance with the "Limitation on Sale of Assets" covenant; and

(vi) the purchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or
retirement for value of Subordinated Indebtedness in exchange for, or out
of the net cash proceeds of a substantially concurrent incurrence (other
than to a Subsidiary) of, new Subordinated Indebtedness so long as (A) the
principal amount of such new Subordinated Indebtedness does not exceed the
principal amount (or, if such Subordinated Indebtedness being refinanced
provides for an amount less than the principal amount thereof to be due and
payable upon a declaration of acceleration thereof, such lesser amount as
of the date of determination) of the Subordinated Indebtedness being so
purchased, redeemed, defeased, acquired or retired, plus the lesser of the
amount of any premium required to be paid in connection with such
refinancing pursuant to the terms of such Subordinated Indebtedness being
refinanced or the amount of any premium reasonably determined by the Issuer
as necessary to accomplish such refinancing, plus, in either case, the
amount of expenses of the Issuer incurred in connection with such
refinancing, (B) such new Subordinated Indebtedness is subordinated to the
Notes to the same extent as such Subordinated Indebtedness so purchased,
redeemed, defeased, acquired or retired and (C) such new Subordinated
Indebtedness has an Average Life longer than the Average Life of the Notes
and a final Stated Maturity of principal later than the final Stated
Maturity of principal of the Notes.

The actions described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) of this paragraph
(b) shall be Restricted Payments that shall be permitted to be taken in
accordance with this paragraph (b) but shall reduce the amount that would
otherwise be available for Restricted Payments under clause (3) of paragraph
(a) and the actions described in clauses (v) and (vi) of this paragraph (b)
shall be Restricted Payments that shall be permitted to be taken in accordance
with this paragraph (b) and shall not reduce the amount that would otherwise
be available for Restricted Payments under clause (3) of paragraph (a) above.

Limitation on Issuances and Sales of Capital Stock of Restricted
Subsidiaries. The Issuer will not, and will not permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, issue or sell any Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary
(other than to the Issuer or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary) other than
Permitted Capital Stock Sales; provided, however, that this covenant shall not
prohibit (i) the ownership by directors of directors' qualifying shares or the
ownership by foreign nationals of Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary,
to the extent mandated by applicable law, (ii) the issuance and sale of all,
but not less than all, of the issued and outstanding Capital Stock of any
Restricted Subsidiary owned by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary in
compliance with the "Limitation on Sale of Assets" covenant.

Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates. (a) The Issuer will not, and
will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to enter into or suffer to exist,
directly or indirectly, any transaction or series of related transactions
(including, without limitation, the sale, purchase, exchange or lease of
assets, property or services) with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of
the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary unless (i) such transaction or series
of related transactions are on terms that are no less favorable to the Issuer,
or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could have
been obtained in an arm's-length transaction with unrelated third parties who
are not Affiliates, (ii) with respect to any transaction or series of related
transactions involving aggregate consideration equal to or greater than $1.0
million (or to the extent not denominated in U.S. dollars, the U.S. Dollar
Equivalent thereof), the Issuer will deliver an officers' certificate to the
Trustee certifying that such transaction or series of related transactions
complies with clause (i) above; (iii) with respect to any transaction or
series of related transactions involving aggregate consideration equal to or
greater than $5.0 million (or, to the extent not denominated in U.S. dollars,
the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof), the Issuer will deliver an officers'
certificate to the Trustee certifying that such transaction or series of
related transactions complies with clause (i) above and has been approved by a
majority of the Disinterested Directors of the Board of Directors of the
Issuer, or the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee a written opinion from an
internationally recognized investment

78
<PAGE>

banking firm to the effect that such transaction or series of related
transactions is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case
may be, from a financial point of view and (iv) with respect to any
transaction or series of related transactions involving aggregate
consideration equal to or greater than $10.0 million (or to the extent not
denominated in U.S. dollars, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof), the Issuer
shall deliver to the Trustee a written opinion from an internationally
recognized investment banking firm to the effect that such transaction or
series of related transactions is fair to the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary, as the case may be, from a financial point of view; provided,
however, that this provision will not restrict (1) any transaction or series
of related transactions among the Issuer and Restricted Subsidiaries or among
Restricted Subsidiaries, (2) Investments in Qualified Capital Stock of the
Issuer by any Person, including an Affiliate of the Issuer, (3) the Issuer
from paying reasonable and customary regular compensation and fees to
directors of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary who are not executives of
any such Persons, (4) the Issuer or any Subsidiary from making any Restricted
Payment in compliance with the "Limitation on Restricted Payments" covenant,
(5) any transaction by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary with a
supplier, vendor or lessor of goods or services in the ordinary course of
business, (6) any compensation payable under any employment agreement entered
into by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary
course of business, or (7) transactions that do not constitute Restricted
Payments by virtue of exceptions set forth in the definition of "Permitted
Investments" set forth below under the caption "Certain Definitions".

Limitation on Liens. The Issuer will not, and will not permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to
exist any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on or with respect to any of its
property or assets, including any shares of stock or indebtedness of any
Restricted Subsidiary, whether owned at the date of the Indenture or
thereafter acquired, or any income, profits or proceeds therefrom, or assign
or otherwise convey any right to receive income thereon, unless (x) in the
case of any Lien securing Subordinated Indebtedness, the Notes are secured by
a Lien on such property, assets or proceeds that is senior in priority to such
Lien and (y) in the case of any other Lien, the Notes are equally and ratably
secured with the obligation or liability secured by such Lien.

Limitation on Issuances of Guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted
Subsidiaries. (a) The Issuer will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary,
directly or indirectly, to guarantee, assume or in any other manner become
liable with respect to any Indebtedness of the Issuer unless (i) (A) such
Restricted Subsidiary simultaneously executes and delivers a supplemental
indenture providing for the guarantee of payment of the Notes by such
Restricted Subsidiary and (B) with respect to any guarantee of Subordinated
Indebtedness of the Issuer by a Restricted Subsidiary, any such guarantee
shall be subordinated to such Restricted Subsidiary's guarantee with respect
to the relevant Notes at least to the same extent as such Subordinated
Indebtedness is subordinated to the Notes and (ii) such Restricted Subsidiary
waives and will not in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or
advantage of, any rights or reimbursement, indemnity or subrogation or any
other rights against the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary as a result
of any payment by such Restricted Subsidiary under its guarantee until the
relevant Notes have been paid in full; provided that this paragraph (a) shall
not be applicable to (x) any guarantee of any Restricted Subsidiary that
existed at the time such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary or (y) any
guarantee of any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness incurred pursuant to a
Bank Facility.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any guarantee of the Notes created
pursuant to the provisions described in the foregoing paragraph (a) shall
provide by its terms that it shall be automatically and unconditionally
released and discharged upon (i) any sale, exchange or transfer, to any Person
who is not an Affiliate of the Issuer, of all of the Issuer's Capital Stock
in, or all or substantially all the assets of, such Restricted Subsidiary
(which sale, exchange or transfer is not prohibited by the Indenture) or (ii)
the release by the holders of the Indebtedness of the Issuer described in the
preceding paragraph of their guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary
(including any deemed release upon payment in full of all obligations under
such Indebtedness, except by or as a result of payment under such guarantee),
at a time when (A) no other Indebtedness of the Issuer has been guaranteed by
such Restricted Subsidiary or (B) the holders of all such other Indebtedness
which is guaranteed by such Restricted Subsidiary also release their guarantee
by such Restricted Subsidiary (including any deemed release upon payment in
full of all obligations under such Indebtedness, except by or as a result of
payment under such guarantee).

79
<PAGE>

Purchase of Notes upon a Change of Control. If a Change of Control shall
occur at any time, then each holder of Notes will have the right to require
that the Issuer purchase such holder's Notes, in whole or in part in integral
multiples of DM1,000 principal amount at maturity, at a purchase price (the
"Change of Control Purchase Price") in cash in an amount equal to 101% of the
Accreted Value of the Notes, plus, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the
date of purchase (the "Change of Control Purchase Date"), pursuant to the
offer described below (the "Change of Control Offer") and the other procedures
set forth in the Indenture.

Within 15 days following any Change of Control, the Issuer shall notify the
Trustee and give written notice of such Change of Control to each holder of
Notes by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at the address appearing in the
security register, stating, among other things, (i) the purchase price and the
purchase date, which shall be a Business Day no earlier than 30 days nor later
than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, or such later date as is
necessary to comply with requirements under the Exchange Act or any applicable
securities laws or regulations; (ii) that any Note not tendered will continue
to accrue interest or original issue discount, as the case may be; (iii) that,
unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the purchase price, any Notes
accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to
accrue interest or original issue discount, as the case may be, after the
Change of Control Purchase Date; and (iv) certain other procedures that a
holder of Notes must follow to accept a Change of Control Offer or to withdraw
such acceptance.

If a Change of Control Offer is made, there can be no assurance that the
Issuer will have available funds sufficient to pay the Change of Control
Purchase Price for all of the Notes that might be delivered by holders of the
Notes seeking to accept the Change of Control Offer. The failure of the Issuer
to make or consummate the Change of Control Offer or pay the Change of Control
Purchase Price when due would result in an Event of Default and would give the
Trustee and the holders of the Notes the rights described under "--Events of
Default."

One of the events which constitutes a Change of Control under the Indenture
is the disposition of "all or substantially all" of the Issuer's assets. This
term has not been interpreted under New York law (which is the governing law
of the Indenture) to represent a specific quantitative test. As a consequence,
in the event holders
of the Notes elect to require the Issuer to purchase the Notes and the Issuer
elects to contest such election, there can be no assurance as to how a court
interpreting New York law would interpret the phrase.

The existence of a holder's right to require the Issuer to purchase such
holder's Notes upon a Change of Control may deter a third party from acquiring
the Issuer in a transaction which constitutes a Change of Control.

The definition of "Change of Control" in the Indenture is limited in scope.
The provisions of the Indenture may not afford holders of Notes the right to
require the Issuer to purchase such Notes in the event of a highly leveraged
transaction or certain transactions with the Issuer's management or its
affiliates, including a reorganization, restructuring, merger or similar
transaction involving the Issuer (including, in certain circumstances, an
acquisition of the Issuer by management or its affiliates) that may adversely
affect holders of the Notes, if such transaction is not a transaction defined
as a Change of Control. See "--Certain Definitions" for the definition of
"Change of Control." A transaction involving the Issuer's management or its
affiliates, or a transaction involving a recapitalization of the Issuer, would
result in a Change of Control if it is the type of transaction specified by
such definition.

The Issuer will comply with the applicable tender offer rules, including
Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other applicable securities laws
and regulations in connection with a Change of Control Offer.

Limitation on Sale of Assets. (a) The Issuer will not, and will not permit
any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, engage in any Asset Sale
unless (i) the consideration received by the Issuer or such Restricted
Subsidiary for such Asset Sale is not less than the fair market value of the
shares or assets sold (as determined by the Board of Directors of the Issuer,
whose determination shall be conclusive and evidenced by a Board Resolution)
and (ii) the consideration received by the Issuer or the relevant Restricted
Subsidiary in respect of such Asset Sale consists of at least 85% cash or Cash
Equivalents.

80
<PAGE>

(b) If the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary engages in an Asset Sale, the
Issuer may use the Net Cash Proceeds thereof, within 12 months after such
Asset Sale, to (i) permanently repay or prepay any then outstanding
unsubordinated Indebtedness of the Issuer or Indebtedness of any Restricted
Subsidiary or (ii) invest (or enter into a legally binding agreement to
invest) in ATM Network Assets or in properties or assets to replace the
properties and assets that were the subject of the Asset Sale. If any such
legally binding agreement to invest such Net Cash Proceeds is terminated, then
the Issuer may, within 90 days of such termination or within 12 months of such
Asset Sale, whichever is later, apply or invest such Net Cash Proceeds as
provided in clause (i) or (ii) (without regard to the parenthetical contained
in such clause (ii)) above. The amount of such Net Cash Proceeds not so used
as set forth above in this paragraph (b) constitutes "Excess Proceeds."

(c) When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10.0 million (or,
to the extent not denominated in U.S. dollars, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent
thereof) the Issuer shall, within 15 business days, make an offer to purchase
(an "Excess Proceeds Offer") from all holders of Notes, on a pro rata basis,
in accordance with the procedures set forth below, the maximum Accreted Value
of Notes (expressed as a multiple of DM1,000) that may be purchased with the
Excess Proceeds. The offer price as to each Note shall be payable in cash in
an amount equal to 100% of the Accreted Value of such Note as of the date of
purchase plus, in each case, accrued interest, if any (the "Offered Price") to
the date an Excess Proceeds Offer is consummated. To the extent that the
aggregate Offered Price of Notes tendered pursuant to an Excess Proceeds Offer
is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Issuer may use such deficiency for
general corporate purposes. If the aggregate Offered Price of Notes validly
tendered and not withdrawn by holders thereof exceeds the Excess Proceeds,
Notes to be purchased will be selected on a pro rata basis. Upon completion of
such offer to purchase, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset to zero.

Limitation on Sale and Leaseback Transactions. The Issuer will not, and will
not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, enter into
any Sale and Leaseback Transaction (other than a transaction that is solely
between the Issuer and any Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary or solely
between Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries) after the Issue Date with
respect to any property or assets (whether now owned or hereafter acquired),
unless (i) the sale or transfer of such property or assets to be leased is
treated as an Asset Sale and the Issuer complies with the "Limitation on Sale
of Assets" covenant, (ii) the Issuer or such Restricted Subsidiary would be
permitted to incur Indebtedness under the "Limitation on Additional
Indebtedness" covenant (including Permitted Indebtedness) in the amount of the
Attributable Value of such Sale and Leaseback Transaction and (iii) the Issuer
or such Restricted Subsidiary would be permitted to grant a Lien under the
"Limitation on Liens" covenant (including Permitted Liens) to secure the
amount of the Attributable Value of such Sale and Leaseback Transaction.

Limitation on Dividends and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted
Subsidiaries. The Issuer will not, and will not permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to
exist or become effective any encumbrance or restriction of any kind on the
ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to (a) pay dividends, in cash or
otherwise, or make any other distributions on or in respect of its Capital
Stock to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, (b) pay any Indebtedness
owed to the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary, (c) make Investments in
the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary, (d) transfer any of its
properties or assets to the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary or (e)
guarantee any Indebtedness of the Issuer or any other Restricted Subsidiary,
except for such encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of
(i) any agreement in effect on the date of the Indenture and listed on or of a
type described in a schedule attached to the Indenture, (ii) applicable law,
(iii) customary non-assignment provisions of any lease governing a leasehold
interest of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary, (iv) any agreement or
other instrument of a Person acquired by the Issuer or any Restricted
Subsidiary in existence at the time of such acquisition (but not created in
contemplation thereof), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to
any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person,
or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired, (v) the refinancing of
Indebtedness incurred under the agreements existing on the date of the
Indenture, so long as such encumbrances or restrictions are no less favorable
to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary than those contained

81
<PAGE>

in the respective agreement as in effect on the date of the Indenture, (vi)
pursuant to the Indenture or the Notes, (vii) any Bank Facility if such
encumbrance or restriction applies only (x) to amounts which at any point in
time (other than during such periods as are described in clause (y)) (1)
exceed amounts due and payable (or which are to become due and payable within
30 days) in respect of the Notes or the Indenture for interest, premium and
principal (after giving effect to any realization by the Issuer under any
applicable Currency Agreement), or (2) if paid, would result in an event
described in the following clause (y) of this sentence, or (y) during the
pendency of any event that causes, permits or, after notice or lapse of time,
would cause or permit the holder(s) of the Indebtedness governed by such
agreement or instrument to declare any such Indebtedness to be immediately due
and payable or require cash collateralization or cash cover for such
Indebtedness for so long as such cash collateralization or cash cover has not
been provided, or (viii) any arrangement arising or agreed to in the ordinary
course of business, not relating to any Indebtedness that does not
individually, or together with all such encumbrances or restrictions, detract
from the value of property or assets of the Issuer or any Restricted
Subsidiary in any manner material to the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary.

Limitation on Investments in Unrestricted Subsidiaries. The Issuer will not
make, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to make, any
Investments in Unrestricted Subsidiaries if, at the time thereof, the
aggregate amount of such Investments would exceed the amount of Restricted
Payments then permitted to be made pursuant to the "Limitation on Restricted
Payments" covenant (calculated as if no prior Investments in Unrestricted
Subsidiaries had been made by the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary). Any
Investments in Unrestricted Subsidiaries permitted to be made pursuant to this
covenant (i) will be treated as the making of a Restricted Payment in
calculating the amount of Restricted Payments made by the Issuer or a
Restricted Subsidiary, without duplication, under the provisions of clause
(iv) of paragraph (a) of the "Limitations on Restricted Payments" covenant and
(ii) may be made in cash or property (if made in property, the fair market
value thereof as determined by the Board of Directors of the Issuer (whose
determination shall be conclusive and evidenced by a Board Resolution) shall
be deemed to be the amount of such Investment for the purpose of clause (i)).

Business of the Issuer. The Issuer will not, and will not permit any
Restricted Subsidiary to, engage in any business other than an ATM Network
Business.

Provision of Financial Statements and Reports. Whether or not the Issuer is
required to file reports with the Commission, the Issuer will file on a timely
basis with the Commission, the annual reports, quarterly reports and other
documents that the Issuer would be required to file if it were subject to
Section 13 or 15 of the Exchange Act. The Issuer will also be required (a) to
file with the Trustee, and provide to each holder of Notes, without cost to
such holder, copies of such reports and documents within 15 days after the
date on which such reports and documents are filed with the Commission or the
date on which the Issuer would be required to file such reports and documents
if the Issuer were so required, and (b) if filing such reports and documents
with the Commission is not accepted by the Commission or is prohibited under
the Exchange Act, to supply at the Issuer's cost copies of such reports and
documents to any prospective holder of Notes promptly upon written request.

CONSOLIDATION, MERGER AND SALE OF ASSETS

The Issuer will not in a single transaction or a series of related
transactions consolidate with or merge with or into any other Person or sell,
assign, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially
all of its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any other
Person or Persons or permit any Restricted Subsidiary to enter into any such
transaction or series of related transactions, if such transaction or series
of related transactions, in the aggregate, would result in the sale,
assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the properties and assets of the Issuer and its
Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis substantially as an entirety
to any Person or Persons, unless: (i) at the time and immediately after giving
effect thereto either (a) the Issuer will be the surviving corporation or (b)
the Person (if other than

82
<PAGE>

the Issuer) formed by such consolidation or into which the Issuer or such
Restricted Subsidiary is merged or the Person which acquires by sale,
conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition, all or substantially all of
the properties and assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis substantially as an entirety, as the case may be (the
"Surviving Entity"), (1) will be a corporation organized and validly existing
under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the
District of Columbia and (2) will expressly assume, by a supplemental
indenture to the Indenture in form satisfactory to the Trustee, the Issuer's
obligations for the due and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if
any, on and interest on all the Notes and the performance and observance of
every covenant of the Indenture on the part of the Issuer to be performed or
observed; (ii) immediately before and after giving effect to such transaction
or series of transactions on a pro forma basis (and treating any obligation of
the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary incurred in connection with or as a
result of such transaction or series of transactions as having been incurred
of the time of such transaction), no Default or Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing; (iii) immediately after giving effect to such
transaction or series of transactions on a pro forma basis (on the assumption
that the transaction or series of transactions occurred on the first day of
the latest fiscal quarter for which consolidated financial statements of the
Issuer are available immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction
or series of transactions with the appropriate adjustments with respect to the
transaction or series of transactions being included in such pro forma
calculation), the Issuer (or the Surviving Entity if the Issuer is not the
continuing obligor under the Indenture) could incur at least $1.00 of
additional Indebtedness (other than Permitted Indebtedness) under the
provisions of the "Limitation on Additional Indebtedness" covenant; and (iv)
if any of the property or assets of the Issuer or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries would thereupon become subject to any Lien, the provisions of the
"Limitation on Liens" covenant are complied with.

In connection with any such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment,
conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition, the Issuer or the Surviving
Entity shall have delivered to the Trustee, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee, an officers' certificate and an opinion of
counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment,
conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition, and if a supplemental
indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental
indenture, comply with the
requirements of the relevant Indenture and that all conditions precedent
therein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with.

Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, conveyance,
transfer, lease or disposition of all of substantially all of the properties
and assets of the Issuer in accordance with the immediately preceding
paragraphs in which the Issuer is not the continuing obligor under the
Indenture, the Surviving Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and
may exercise every right and power of, the Issuer under the Indenture with the
same effect as if such successor had been named as the Issuer therein. When a
successor assumes all the obligations of its predecessor under the Indenture,
the predecessor shall be released from those obligations; provided that in the
case of a transfer by lease, the predecessor shall not be released from the
payment of principal and interest on the Notes.

EVENTS OF DEFAULT

The following will be "Events of Default" under the Indenture:

(i) default in the payment of any interest on any Note when it becomes
due and payable and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days;

(ii) default in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any
(including any failure to pay the Redemption Price, if applicable), on any
Note at its Maturity;

(iii) (A) default in the performance, or breach, of any covenant or
agreement of the Issuer contained in the Indenture (other than a default in
the performance, or breach, of a covenant or agreement which is
specifically dealt with in the immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii)
or in clauses (B), (C) or (D) of this clause (iii)) and continuance of such
default or breach for a period of 30 days after written notice shall have

83
<PAGE>

been given to the Issuer by the Trustee or to the Issuer and the Trustee by
the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount at maturity of
the Notes then outstanding; (B) default in the performance or breach of the
provisions of the "Limitation on Sale of Assets" covenant; (C) default in
the performance or breach of the provisions of "--Consolidation, Merger and
Sale of Assets"; and (D) failure to make or consummate a Change of Control
Offer in accordance with the provisions of the "Purchase of Notes upon a
Change of Control" covenant;

(iv) (A) one or more defaults in the payment of principal of or premium,
if any, or interest on Indebtedness of the Issuer or any Restricted
Subsidiary aggregating $10.0 million or more (or, to the extent not
denominated in U.S. dollars, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof), when the
same becomes due and payable at the stated maturity thereof, and such
default or defaults shall have continued after any applicable grace period
and shall not have been cured or waived or (B) Indebtedness of the Issuer
or any Restricted Subsidiary aggregating $10.0 million or more (or, to the
extent not denominated in U.S. dollars, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof)
shall have been accelerated or otherwise declared due and payable, or
required to be prepaid or repurchased (other than by regularly scheduled
required prepayment), prior to the stated maturity thereof;

(v) one or more final judgments, orders or decrees of any court or
regulatory agency shall be rendered against the Issuer or any Significant
Subsidiary or their respective properties for the payment of money, either
individually or in an aggregate amount, in excess of $10.0 million (or, to
the extent not denominated in U.S. dollars, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent
thereof) and either (A) an enforcement proceeding shall have been commenced
by any creditor upon such judgment or order or (B) there shall have been a
period of 30 days during which a stay of enforcement of such judgment or
order, by reason of a pending appeal or otherwise, was not in effect;

(vi) the occurrence of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization with respect to the Issuer or any Significant Subsidiary;

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause
(vi) above) shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee or the holders of not
less than 25% in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Notes then
outstanding, by written notice to the Issuer (and to the Trustee if such
notice is given by the holders), may, and the Trustee upon the written request
of such holders shall, declare the Accreted Value of, premium, if any,
and accrued interest on all of such outstanding Notes immediately due and
payable, and upon any such declaration all such amounts payable in respect of
the Notes shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default
specified in clause (vi) above occurs and is continuing, then the Accreted
Value of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on all of the outstanding
Notes shall ipso facto become immediately due and payable without any
declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any holder of Notes.

At any time after a declaration of acceleration under the Indenture, but
before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by
the Trustee, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount at
maturity of the outstanding Notes by written notice to the Issuer and the
Trustee, may rescind such declaration and its consequences if (a) the Issuer
has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay (i) all overdue
interest on all outstanding Notes, (ii) all unpaid Accreted Value and premium,
if any, on any outstanding Notes that have become due otherwise than by such
declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate borne by the
Notes, (iii) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest
upon overdue interest and overdue principal at the rate borne by the Notes,
(iv) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee under the Indenture and the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel; and (b) all Events of Default, other than the non-
payment of amounts of Accreted Value of, premium, if any, or interest on the
Notes that has become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have
been cured or waived. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default
or impair any right consequent thereon.

Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, in the event of a declaration of
acceleration in respect of the Notes because of an Event of Default specified
in subparagraph (iv)(A) or (iv)(B) above has occurred and is continuing, such
Event of Default and all consequences thereof (including, without limitation,
any acceleration

84
<PAGE>

or resulting payment default) will be automatically annulled, waived and
rescinded if the Indebtedness that is the subject of such Event of Default has
been discharged or the holders thereof have rescinded their declaration of
acceleration in respect of such Indebtedness or the default that is the basis
for such Event of Default has been cured and no other Event of Default has
occurred and has not been cured or waived.

The holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount at
maturity of the outstanding Notes may, on behalf of the holders of all the
Notes, waive any past defaults under the Indenture, except a default in the
payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note or in
respect of a covenant or provision which under the Indenture cannot be
modified or amended without the consent of the holder of each Note
outstanding.

If a Default or an Event of Default occurs and is continuing and is known to
the Trustee, the Trustee will mail to each holder of the Notes, notice of the
Default or Event of Default within 30 days after the occurrence thereof.
Except in the case of a Default or an Event of Default in payment of principal
of, or premium, if any, or interest on any Notes, the Trustee may withhold the
notice to the holders of such Notes if a committee of its trust officers in
good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the
holders of such Notes.

The Issuer is required to furnish to the Trustee annual and quarterly
statements as to the performance by the Issuer of its obligations under the
Indenture and as to any default in such performance. The Issuer is also
required to notify the Trustee within five business days of the occurrence of
any Default.

DEFEASANCE OR COVENANT DEFEASANCE OF THE INDENTURE

The Issuer may, at its option and at any time, elect to have the obligations
of the Issuer on the Notes discharged with respect to the outstanding Notes
("defeasance"). Such defeasance means that the Issuer will be deemed to have
paid and discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the outstanding
Notes and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Notes and the
Indenture insofar as such Notes are concerned except for (i) the rights of
holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of principal of,
premium, if any,
and interest on such Notes when such payments are due, (ii) the Issuer's
obligations to issue temporary Notes, register the transfer or exchange of any
such Notes, replace mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes, maintain an
office or agency for payments in respect of the Notes and segregate and hold
such payments in trust, (iii) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and
immunities of the Trustee and (iv) the defeasance provisions of the applicable
Indenture. In addition, the Issuer may, at its option and at any time, elect
to have the obligations of the Issuer released with respect to certain
covenants set forth in the Indenture, and any omission to comply with such
obligations shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default with respect
to the Notes ("covenant defeasance").

In order to exercise either defeasance or covenant defeasance, (i) the
Issuer must irrevocably deposit or cause to be deposited with the Trustee, as
trust funds in trust, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated
solely to, the benefit of the holders of the Notes, cash in Deutsche Marks or
U.S. dollars, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient,
in the opinion of an internationally recognized firm of independent public
accountants or an internationally recognized investment banking firm, to pay
and discharge the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
outstanding Notes on the Stated Maturity of such principal, premium, if any,
or installment of interest; (ii) no Default or Event of Default with respect
to the Notes will have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit
or, insofar as an event of bankruptcy under clause (vi) of "--Events of
Default" above is concerned, at any time during the period ending on the first
day following the date that is six months after such deposit; (iii) such
defeasance or covenant defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of,
or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other
than the Indenture) to which the Issuer is a party or by which it is bound;
(iv) in the case of defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee
an Opinion of Counsel in the United States stating that the Issuer has
received from, or there has

85
<PAGE>

been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling, or since the date of
this Prospectus, there has been a change in applicable federal income tax law,
in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall
confirm that, the holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income,
gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such
defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts,
in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such
defeasance had not occurred; (v) in the case of covenant defeasance, the
Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United
States to the effect that the holders of the Notes outstanding will not
recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a
result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income
tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would
have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred; (vi) in the
case of defeasance or covenant defeasance, the Issuer shall have delivered to
the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in the United States to the effect that
after the first day following six months after the date of such deposit or
after the date such opinion is delivered, the trust funds will not be subject
to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or
similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally; (vii) the Issuer shall
have delivered to the Trustee an officers' certificate stating that the
deposit was not made by the Issuer with the intent of preferring the holders
of the Notes over the other creditors of the Issuer with the intent of
hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors of the Issuer; and (viii) the
Issuer shall have delivered to the Trustee an officers' certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel in the United States, each stating that all conditions
precedent provided for relating to either the defeasance or the covenant
defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with.

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

The Indenture will cease to be of further effect (except as to surviving
rights of registration of transfer or exchange of the Notes as expressly
provided for in the Indenture) and the Trustee, at the expense of the Issuer,
will execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of
the Indenture when (i) either (a) all the Notes theretofore authenticated and
delivered (other than destroyed, lost or stolen Notes which have been replaced
or paid) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation or (b) all the
Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (x) have
become due and payable, (y) will become due and payable at Stated Maturity
within one year or (z) are to be called for redemption within one year under
arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of
redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Issuer,
and the Issuer has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the
Trustee trust funds in trust for such purpose an amount sufficient to pay and
discharge the entire Indebtedness on such Notes not theretofore delivered to
the Trustee for cancellation, for Accreted Value of, premium, if any, and
interest on the Notes to the date of such deposit (in the case of Notes which
have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or redemption date, as
the case may be; (ii) the Issuer has paid or caused to be paid all other sums
payable under the Indenture by the Issuer; and (iii) the Issuer has delivered
to the Trustee an officers' certificate and an Opinion of Counsel in the
United States, each stating that all conditions precedent provided in the
Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture have
been complied with.

MODIFICATIONS AND AMENDMENTS

Modifications and amendments of the Indenture may be made by a supplemental
indenture entered into by the Issuer and the Trustee with the consent of the
holders of a majority in aggregate outstanding principal amount at maturity of
the Notes; provided, however, that no such modification or amendment may,
without the consent of the holder of each outstanding Note affected thereby,
(i) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of
interest on, any Note or reduce the principal amount or Accreted Value thereof
or premium, if any, or the rate of interest thereon or change the coin or
currency in which the principal of any such Note or any premium or the
interest thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the
enforcement of any such payment after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the
case of redemption, on or after the redemption date); (ii) amend, change or
modify the redemption provisions of the Indenture or the Notes or the
obligation of the Issuer to make and consummate an Excess Proceeds Offer with
respect to any Asset Sale in accordance with the "Limitation on Sale of
Assets" covenant or the obligation of the Issuer to make and consummate a
Change of

86
<PAGE>

Control Offer in the event of a Change of Control in accordance with the
"Purchase of Notes upon a Change of Control" covenant, including, in each
case, amending, changing or modifying any definition relating thereto; (iii)
reduce the percentage in principal amount at maturity of outstanding Notes,
the consent of whose holders is required for any waiver of compliance with
certain provisions of the Indenture; (iv) modify any of the provisions
relating to supplemental indentures requiring the consent of holders or
relating to the waiver of past defaults or relating to the waiver of certain
covenants, except to increase the percentage of outstanding Notes required for
such actions or to provide that certain other provisions of the Indenture
cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the holder of each Note
affected thereby; (v) except as otherwise permitted under "--Consolidation,
Merger and Sale of Assets," consent to the assignment or transfer by the
Issuer of any of its rights or obligations under the Indenture; or (vi) amend
or modify any of the provisions of the Indenture relating to any guarantee of
the Notes in any manner adverse to the holders of such Notes.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of any holder of the
Notes, the Issuer and the Trustee may modify or amend the Indenture: (a) to
evidence the succession of another Person to the Issuer or any other obligor
on the Notes, and the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the
Issuer or such obligor in the Indenture and in the Notes in accordance with
"--Consolidation, Merger, Sale of Assets"; (b) to add to the covenants of the
Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes for the benefit of the holders of
such Notes or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Issuer or any
other obligor upon such Notes, as applicable, in the Indenture or in such
Notes; (c) to cure any ambiguity, or to correct or supplement any provision in
the Indenture or the Notes or make any other provisions with respect to
matters or questions arising under the Indenture or the Notes; provided that,
in each case, such provisions shall not adversely affect the interest of the
holders of such Notes; (d) to comply with the requirements of the Commission
in order to effect or maintain the qualification, if any, of the Indenture
under the Trust Indenture Act; (e) to add a guarantor of the Notes under the
Indenture; (f) to evidence and provide the acceptance of the appointment of a
successor Trustee under the Indenture; or (g) to mortgage, pledge, hypothecate
or grant a security interest in favor of the Trustee for the benefit of the
holders of the Notes as additional security for the payment and performance of
the Issuer's and any guarantor's obligations under the Indenture, in any
property, or assets, including any of which are required
to be mortgaged, pledged or hypothecated, or in which a security interest is
required to be granted to the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture or otherwise.

The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount at maturity of the
Notes outstanding may waive compliance with certain restrictive covenants and
provisions of the Indenture.

NO PERSONAL LIABILITY OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND STOCKHOLDERS

No director, officer, employee, agent, incorporator or stockholder of the
Issuer, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer
under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or
by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each holder of the Notes by
accepting a Note irrevocably waives and releases all such liability. The
waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the
Notes. Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the U.S.
federal securities laws and it is the view of the Commission that such a
waiver is against public policy.

NOTICES

Any notice or communication to holders of the Notes will be in writing and
delivered in person or mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed
to the holders at their respective addresses as they appear on the
registration books of the registrar under the Indenture and shall be
sufficiently given if so mailed within the time prescribed. If a notice or
communication is mailed in the manner provided above, it is duly given,
whether or not received by the addressee. In addition, all notices will be
published (so long as the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange
and the rules of the Exchange so require) in a leading daily newspaper of
general circulation in Luxembourg (which is expected to be the Luxemburger
Wort) or, if in the opinion of the Trustee such publication shall not
practicable, in an English language newspaper of general circulation in
Europe. Any such notice shall be deemed to have been given on the date of such
publication, or, if published more than once or on different dates, on the
first date on which publication in such newspaper is made.

THE TRUSTEE

The Indenture provides that, except during the continuance of an Event of
Default, the Trustee will perform only such duties as are specifically set
forth in the Indenture. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
the Trustee will exercise such rights and powers vested in it under the
Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a
prudent Person would exercise under the circumstances in the conduct of such
Person's own affairs.

The Indenture and provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, incorporated by
reference therein, contain limitations on the rights of the Trustee thereunder
should it become a creditor of the Issuer, to obtain payment of claims in
certain cases or to realize on certain property received by it in respect of
any such claims, as security or otherwise. The Trustee is permitted to engage
in other transactions; provided, however, that if it acquires any conflicting
interest (as defined below) it must eliminate such conflict or resign.

GOVERNING LAW

The Indenture and the Notes will be governed by, and construed in accordance
with, the laws of the State of New York.

CERTAIN DEFINITIONS

"Accreted Value" is defined to mean, for any Specified Date, the amount
calculated pursuant to clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) below for each DM1,000
principal amount at maturity of Notes:

(i) if the Specified Date occurs on one or more of the following dates
(each a "Semi-Annual Accrual Date"), the Accreted Value will equal the
amount set forth below for such Semi-Annual Accrual Date:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
SEMI-ANNUAL
ACCRUAL DATE ACCRETED VALUE
------------ --------------
<S> <C>
, 1998................................................... DM
, 1999................................................... DM
, 1999................................................... DM
, 2000................................................... DM
, 2000................................................... DM
, 2001................................................... DM
, 2001................................................... DM
, 2002................................................... DM1,000
</TABLE>

(ii) if the Specified Date occurs before the first Semi-Annual Accrual
Date, the Accreted Value will equal the sum of (a) the original issue price
and (b) an amount equal to the product of (i) the Accreted Value for the
first Semi-Annual Accrual Date less the original issue price multiplied by
(2) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days from the Issue
Date to the Specified Date, using a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months,
and the denominator of which is the number of days elapsed from the Issue
Date to the first Semi-Annual Accrual Date, using a 360-day year of twelve
30-day months;

(iii) if the Specified Date occurs between two Semi-Annual Accrual Dates,
the Accreted Value will equal the sum of (a) the Accreted Value for the
Semi-Annual Accrual Date immediately preceding such Specified Date and (b)
an amount equal to the product of (1) the Accreted Value for the
immediately following Semi-Annual Accrual Date less the Accreted Value for
the immediately preceding Semi-Annual Accrual Date multiplied by (2) a
fraction the numerator of which is the number of days from the immediately
preceding Semi-Annual Accrual Date to the Specified Date, using a 360-day
year of twelve 30-day months, and the denominator of which is 180; or

(iv) if the Specified Date occurs after the last Semi-Annual Accrual
Date, the Accreted Value will equal DM1,000.

"Acquired Indebtedness" means Indebtedness of a Person (a) existing at the
time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or (b) assumed in connection
with the acquisition of assets from such Person, in each case, other than
Indebtedness incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person
becoming a Restricted Subsidiary or such acquisition; provided that,
notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of the "Limitation on Additional
Indebtedness" covenant, such Indebtedness shall be deemed to be incurred on
the date of the related acquisition of assets from any Person or the date the

DESCRIPTION OF BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM; PAYMENT; TRANSFERS

The Notes will be represented by permanent global notes without interest
coupons. One of the permanent notes, the DBC Global Note, will be kept in
custody by DBC, will be issued in bearer form and will represent the Notes
sold outside the United States to non-U.S. persons and held through financial
institutions that are account holders in DBC ("DBC Accountholders"). The DBC
Global Note will include the Notes which are held through Euroclear and Cedel,
each of which has an account with DBC. The other permanent global note, the
DTC Global Note, will be issued in registered form in the name of Cede & Co.,
as nominee of DTC, will be held by State Street Bank and Trust Company, as
custodian for DTC (the "Custodian") and will represent the Notes sold to
investors and held through financial institutions that are participants in
DTC. Together, the Notes represented by the DBC Global Note and the DTC Global
Note will equal the aggregate principal amount of the

99
<PAGE>

Notes outstanding at any time. The amount of Notes represented by each of the
DBC Global Note and the DTC Global Note is evidenced by a register maintained
for that purpose by the Registrar (as defined below). Definitive certificates
representing individual Notes shall not be issued except in the limited
circumstances described below.

DTC

DTC has advised the Issuer and the Underwriters that it intends to follow
the procedures as described below:

State Street Bank and Trust Company, as custodian for DTC, will act as
securities depository for the DTC Global Note which will be issued as a fully
registered security registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC's nominee).

DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking
Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law,
a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the
meaning of New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a "clearing agency"
registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange Act. DTC
holds securities that its Participants deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates
the settlement among Participants of securities transactions, such as
transfers and pledges, in deposited securities through electronic computerized
book-entry changes in Participants' accounts, thereby eliminating the need for
physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include
securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations
and certain other organizations ("Direct Participants"). DTC is owned by a
number of its Direct Participants and by the New York Stock Exchange, Inc.,
the American Stock Exchange, Inc., and the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. Access to DTC's system is also available to others such as
securities brokers and dealers, banks, and trust companies that clear through
or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either
directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). The Rules applicable to DTC
and its Participants are on file with the Commission.

Purchase of registered Notes represented by the DTC Global Note must be made
by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for such Notes
on DTC's records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each
registered Note ("Beneficial Owners") is in turn recorded on the Direct and
Indirect Participants' records. Transfers of ownership interest in such Notes
are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Participants acting on
behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive definitive
certificates representing their ownership interests in such Notes, except in
the event that use of the book-entry system for such Notes is discontinued as
described below.

Conveyance of registered Notes and other communications by DTC to Direct
Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct
Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners are governed by
arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements
as may be in effect from time to time.

Redemption notices for Notes represented by the DTC Global Note shall be
sent to Cede & Co. If less than all of the Notes represented by the DTC Global
Note are being redeemed, DTC's practice is to determine by lot the amount of
the interest of each Direct Participant in such issue to be redeemed.

Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. will consent or vote with respect to the Notes
represented by the DTC Global Note. Under its usual procedures, DTC will mail
an Omnibus Proxy to the Issuer as soon as possible after the record date. The
Omnibus Proxy will assign Cede & Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those
Direct Participants to whose accounts the Notes represented by the DTC Global
Note are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the
Omnibus Proxy).

Principal, premium (if any), and interest payments on Notes represented by
the DTC Global Note will be made to DTC. DTC's practice is to credit Direct
Participants' accounts on the payment date in accordance with their respective
holdings shown on DTC's records unless DTC has reason to believe that it will
not receive payment on the payment date. Payments by Participants to
Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary
practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers
in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility
of such Participant and not of DTC, the U.S.

100
<PAGE>

Paying Agent or the Issuer, subject to any statutory or regulatory
requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of principal,
premium (if any) and interest to DTC is the responsibility of Issuer or the
U.S. Paying Agent, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants shall
be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the
Beneficial Owners shall be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect
Participants.

The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book-entry system
has been obtained from sources that the Issuer believes to be reliable, but
the Issuer takes no responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

So long as DTC or its nominee is the registered owner of the DTC Global
Note, DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole
owner or Holder of the Notes represented by the DTC Global Note for all
purposes under the Indenture. Except as set forth below, owners of beneficial
interests in the DTC Global Note will not be entitled to have Notes
represented by the DTC Global Note registered in their names, will not receive
or be entitled to receive physical delivery of Notes in definitive form and
will not be considered the owners or Holders thereof under the Indenture.
Accordingly, such person owning a beneficial interest in the DTC Global Note
must rely on the procedures of DTC and, if such person is not a Participant,
those of the Participant through which such person owns its interests in order
to exercise any rights of a Holder under the Indenture or such Note.

The Indenture provides that DTC, as a Holder, may appoint agents and
otherwise authorize Participants to give or take any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action which a
Holder is entitled to give or take under the Indenture, including the right to
sue for payment of principal or interest pursuant to Section 316(b) of the
Trust Indenture Act. The Issuer understands that under existing industry
practices, when the Issuer requests any action of Holders or when a Beneficial
Owner desires to give or take any action which a Holder is entitled to give or
take under the Indenture, DTC generally will give or take such action, or
authorize the relevant Participants to give or take such action, and such
Participants would authorize Beneficial Owners owning through such
Participants to give or take such action or would otherwise act upon the
instructions of Beneficial Owners owning through them.

The Issuer has been informed by DTC that DTC will assist its Participants
and their customers (Beneficial Owners) in taking any action a Holder is
entitled to take under the Indenture or exercise any rights available to Cede
& Co., as the holder of record of the DTC Global Note, including the right to
demand acceleration upon an Event of Default or to institute suit for the
enforcement of payment or interest pursuant to Section 316(b) of the Trust
Indenture Act. DTC has advised the Issuer that it will act with respect to
such matters upon written instructions from a Participant to whose account
with DTC the relevant beneficial ownership in the registered Notes is
credited. The Issuer understands that a Participant will deliver such written
instructions to DTC upon itself receiving similar written instructions from
either Indirect Participants or Beneficial Owners, as the case may be. Under
Rule 6 of the rules and procedures filed by DTC with the Commission pursuant
to Section 17 of the Exchange Act, Participants are required to indemnify DTC
against all liability DTC may sustain, without fault on the part of DTC or its
nominee, as a result of any action they may take pursuant to the instructions
of the Participant in exercising any such rights.

The laws of some jurisdictions require that certain purchasers of securities
take physical delivery of such securities in definitive form. Such limits and
such laws may impair the ability to transfer beneficial interests in the
Global Notes.

Neither the Issuer nor the Trustee will have any responsibility or liability
for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of
beneficial ownership interests in the DTC Global Note or for maintaining,
supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership
interests.

If DTC is at any time unwilling, unable or ineligible to continue as
depositary or ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act
and, in either case a successor depositary is not appointed by the Issuer

101
<PAGE>

within 60 days or if an Event of Default under the Indenture has occurred and
is continuing, the Issuer will issue Notes under the Indenture in definitive
registered form, without coupons, in denominations of DM1,000 principal amount
at maturity and any integral multiple thereof, in exchange for the DTC Global
Note representing such Notes. In addition, the Issuer may at any time and in
its sole discretion determine not to have any Notes in registered form
represented by the DTC Global Note and, in such event, will issue Notes in
definitive registered form in exchange for the DTC Global Note representing
such Notes. In any such instance, an owner of a beneficial interest in a DTC
Global Note will be entitled to physical delivery in definitive form of
registered Notes represented by such DTC Global Note equal in principal amount
at maturity to such beneficial interest and to have such Notes registered in
its name. Upon the exchange of the DTC Global Note for Notes in definitive
form, the DTC Global Note will be cancelled by the applicable Trustee. In the
event that definitive registered Notes are issued all transactions in
connection with the transfer, delivery and registration of such definitive
Notes may be effected through the offices of the Luxembourg Paying Agent,
including in connection with any partial redemption of Notes.

Transfers and Registrar

Transfers of Notes (including the DTC Global Note and the DBC Global Note)
will be limited to transfers of book-entry interests between and within DBC
and DTC. Transfers of Notes between DBC Accountholders on the one hand and DTC
Participants on the other hand shall be effected by an increase or a reduction
in the aggregate amount of Notes represented by the DBC Global Note and a
corresponding reduction or increase in the aggregate amount of Notes
represented by the DTC Global Note.

Except as set forth above, owners of legal co-ownership interests in the DBC
Global Note or of beneficial interests in the DTC Global Note will not be
entitled to have Notes registered in their names, and will not receive or be
entitled to receive physical delivery of definitive certificates representing
individual Notes.

The Issuer has appointed State Street Bank and Trust Company as registrar
(the "Registrar") for all Notes and as paying agent in respect of the Notes
represented by the DTC Global Note (the "U.S. Paying Agent") and State Street
Bank GmbH as paying agent for the Notes represented by the DBC Global Note
(the "DM Paying Agent") (the DM Paying Agent and the U.S. Paying Agent are
referred to as the "Paying Agents"). So long as the Notes are listed on the
Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the rules of such exchange so require, the
Company will have a paying agent and transfer agent in Luxembourg. State
Street Bank and Trust Company, as the Registrar, provides the link between DTC
and DBC. The Issuer shall ensure that for as long as any Notes shall be
outstanding there shall always be a Registrar, a U.S. Paying Agent and a DM
Paying Agent to perform the functions assigned to any of them in the
Indenture.

Payment

Payment of principal of premium, if any, and interest on the Notes
represented by the Global Notes will be made in Deutsche Marks through the DM
Paying Agent to DBC as the registered Holder of the DBC Global Note and in
Deutsche Marks and U.S. Dollars through the U.S. Paying Agent to Cede & Co.,
the nominee for DTC, as the registered Holder of the DTC Global Note.

Any person holding beneficial interests in the DTC Global Note (a "DTC
Noteholder") shall receive payments of principal and interest in respect of
the Notes in U.S. dollars, unless such DTC Noteholder elects to receive
payment in Deutsche Marks in accordance with the procedures set forth below.
To the extent that the

DTC Noteholders have not made such election in respect of any payment of
principal or interest, the aggregate amount designated for all such DTC
Noteholders in respect of such payment (the "DM Conversion Amount") shall be
credited to the U.S. Paying Agent's account and converted by the U.S. Paying
Agent into U.S. dollars and paid by wire transfer of same-day funds to the
registered holder of the DTC Global Note for payment through DTC's settlement
system to the relevant DTC Participants. All costs of any such conversion and
wire transfer shall be deducted from such payments. Any such conversion shall
be based on State Street Bank N.A.'s bid quotation, at or prior to 11:00 a.m.
New York time, on the second Business Day (as defined below) preceding the
relevant payment date, for the purchase by the U.S. Paying Agent of the DM
Conversion Amount of U.S. dollars for settlement on such payment date. If such
bid quotation is not available for any reason, the U.S. Paying Agent shall
endeavor to obtain a bid quotation from a leading foreign exchange bank in New
York City selected

102
<PAGE>

by the U.S. Paying Agent for such purpose. If no bid quotation from a leading
foreign exchange bank is available, payment of the DM Conversion Amount will
be made in Deutsche Marks to the account or accounts specified by DTC to the
U.S. Paying Agent.

In addition to acting in its capacity as U.S. Paying Agent, State Street
Bank and Trust Company may act as a foreign exchange dealer for purposes of
converting Deutsche Marks to U.S. dollars as described in the paragraph above
and, when acting as a foreign exchange dealer, it will derive profits from
such activities in addition to the fees earned by it for its services as
Trustee, Registrar and U.S. Paying Agent. Each such conversion will be made on
such terms, conditions, and charges not inconsistent with the terms of the
Notes as State Street Bank and Trust Company may from time to time establish
in accordance with its regular foreign exchange practices, and subject to
applicable U.S. law and regulations.

A DTC Noteholder may elect to receive payment of principal and interest with
respect to the Notes in Deutsche Marks by causing DTC through the relevant DTC
Participant to notify the U.S. Paying Agent by the time specified below of (i)
such DTC Noteholder's election to receive all or a portion of such payment in
Deutsche Marks, (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the DTC Global Note
held by such DTC Noteholder to which such election relates and (iii) wire
transfer instructions to a Deutsche Mark account in the Federal Republic of
Germany. Such election in respect of any payment must be made by the DTC
Noteholder at the time and in the manner required by the DTC procedures
applicable from time to time and shall, in accordance with such procedures, be
irrevocable and shall relate only to such payment. DTC notification of such
election, wire transfer instructions and the amount payable in Deutsche Marks
must be received by the U.S. Paying Agent prior to 5:00 p.m. New York time on
the fifth Business Day following the relevant Record Date in the case of
interest, and prior to the third Business Day preceding the payment date for
the payment of principal. Any payments in Deutsche Marks shall be made by wire
transfer of same-day funds to Deutsche Mark accounts designated by DTC. The
term "Business Day" shall mean any day other than a Saturday or Sunday or a
day on which banking institutions in New York City are authorized or required
by law or executive order to close.

Payments by DTC Participants and Indirect DTC Participants (as defined
herein) to owners of beneficial interests in the DTC Global Note will be
governed by standing instructions and customary practices as is now the case
with securities held by the accounts of customers registered in "street name",
and will be the responsibility of the DTC Participants or Indirect DTC
Participants. Neither the Trustee nor any Paying Agent will have any
responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records of DTC relating to
or payments made by DTC on account of beneficial interests in the DTC Global
Note or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records of DTC relating
to such beneficial interests. Substantially similar principles will apply with
regard to the DBC Global Note and payments of interest to holders therein.

DBC

DBC is incorporated under the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany and
acts as a specialized depositary and clearing organization. DBC is subject to
regulations and supervision by the German Banking Supervisory Authority. DBC
holds securities for DBC Accountholders and facilitates the clearance and
settlement of securities transactions between its DBC Accountholders through
electronic book-entry changes in securities accounts with simultaneous payment
in Deutsche Marks in same-day funds. Thus, the need for physical delivery of
certificates is eliminated. DBC provides to the DBC Accountholders, among
other things, services for safekeeping, administration, clearance and
settlement of domestic German and internationally traded securities and
securities lending and borrowing. DBC Accountholders include banking
institutions located in Germany, including German branches of non-German
financial institutions, securities brokers or dealers admitted to a German
Stock Exchange that meet certain additional requirements, certain foreign
clearing institutions and, subject to certain requirements, other credit
institutions within the European Union. Indirect access to DBC is available to
others such as securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies,
clearing corporations and others, including individuals, that clear through or
maintain custodial relationships with DBC Accountholders either directly or
indirectly.

PRESCRIPTION

Subject to applicable law, any money deposited with the Trustee or any
Paying Agent for payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on
the Notes which remains unclaimed for two years after any such payment is due
shall be returned to the Issuer upon its request. After such time, holders of
Notes may seek payment of such amounts from the Issuer without interest as an
unsecured general creditor of the Issuer.

REPLACEMENT OF NOTES

If any Note is lost, stolen, mutilated, defaced or destroyed, it may be
replaced at the office of the Trustee and the Luxembourg Paying Agent, subject
to all applicable laws and stock exchange requirements, upon payment by the
claimant of the expense incurred in connection with such replacement and on
such terms as to evidence, security, indemnity and otherwise as the Issuer may
reasonably require. Mutilated or defaced Notes must be surrendered before
replacements will be issued.

ACTION BY NOTEHOLDERS

All rights of action and claims under the Indenture may be prosecuted and
enforced by the Trustee for the benefit of the holders of the Notes. The
Indenture provides that the holders of not less than a majority of the
outstanding Notes shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding (including meetings of holders of Notes) for any
remedy available to the Trustee under the Indenture.

CERTAIN UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following discussion is a summary of the principal United States federal
income tax considerations of acquiring, owning, and disposing of Notes that
may be relevant to prospective investors. This summary is of a general nature
and is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or tax
advice to any person purchasing and holding Notes pursuant to this Prospectus.
The following discussion applies only to persons that hold the Notes as
capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). This discussion does not purport to deal
with all aspects of United States federal income taxation that may be relevant
to a prospective investor or to certain classes of persons who are subject to
special treatment under the United States federal income tax law, including,
but not limited to, dealers in securities or currencies, banks, insurance
companies, tax-exempt organizations, persons that hold the Notes as a "hedge"
against currency risks, as part of a "straddle" with other investments, or as
part of a "conversion transaction," persons that have a "functional currency"
other than the U.S. dollar, and persons who have ceased to be United States
citizens or to be taxed as resident aliens. In addition, except as expressly
indicated, the discussion generally is limited to the United States federal
income tax consequences to initial holders of the Notes. It does not consider
the tax treatment of holders of an interest in pass-through entities that hold
the Notes nor does it include any description of the tax laws of any state,
local, or foreign governments that may be applicable to the Notes or holders
thereof.

This summary is based upon the United States federal tax laws as in effect
on the date of this Prospectus, which are subject to change.

EACH PROSPECTIVE INVESTOR IS URGED TO CONSULT WITH ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR AS TO
THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO SUCH INVESTOR OF ACQUIRING, OWNING, AND
DISPOSING OF THE NOTES, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND AFFECT OF ANY STATE,
LOCAL, OR FOREIGN INCOME TAX LAWS, AND OF CHANGES IN APPLICABLE TAX LAWS.

U.S. HOLDERS

The following discussion is limited to the United States federal income tax
consequences relevant to a holder of a Note that is (i) a citizen or resident
of the United States, (ii) a corporation organized under the laws of the
United States or any political subdivision thereof or therein, (iii) an
estate, the income of which is subject to United States federal income tax
regardless of the source, or (iv) a trust if a court within the United States
is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust
and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial
decisions of the trust (a "U.S. Holder").

Special consideration relevant to the United States federal income taxation
of payments on Notes denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar
("Foreign Currency") are discussed separately below under the heading FOREIGN
CURRENCY NOTES.

PAYMENTS OF INTEREST

In general, interest on a Note (subject to the original issue discount rules
described below) will be taxable to a beneficial owner who is a U.S. Holder as
ordinary interest income at the time it accrues or is received in accordance
with such U.S. Holder's method of accounting for United States federal income
tax purposes.

Original Issue Discount

The Notes will be issued with original issue discount ("OID") for United
States federal income tax purposes. The following summary is a general
discussion of the United States federal income tax consequences to U.S.
Holders of the purchase, ownership, and disposition of Notes issued with OID
and that mature more than one year from the date of issuance.

105
<PAGE>

For United States federal income tax purposes, OID is the excess of the
stated redemption price at maturity of a Note over its issue price, if such
excess equals or exceeds a de minimis amount (generally 1/4 of 1% of the
Note's stated redemption price at maturity multiplied by the number of
complete years to its maturity from its issue date). Generally, the issue
price of a Note will equal the first price at which a substantial amount of
such Notes has been sold (ignoring sales to bond houses, brokers, or similar
persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement
agents, or wholesalers). The stated redemption price at maturity of a Note is
the sum of all payments provided by the Note other than qualified stated
interest payments. The term "qualified stated interest" generally means stated
interest that is unconditionally payable in cash or property (other than debt
instruments of the issuer) at least annually at a single fixed rate. Because
the Notes do not provide for the payment of qualified stated interest
throughout their term, the stated redemption price at maturity will be the sum
of the face amount of the Notes and the total amount of interest provided for
under the terms of the Notes. Accordingly, the difference between the first
price at which a substantial amount of the Notes are sold and the total amount
payable under those Notes (principal and interest) will be OID that is
includible in the gross income of a U.S. Holder of the Notes on an annual
basis.

A U.S. Holder of a Note with a maturity date more than one year from the
date of issue must include OID in income as ordinary interest for United
States federal income tax purposes as it accrues under a constant yield method
in advance of the cash payments attributable to such income, regardless of the
U.S. Holder's regular method of tax accounting. In general, the amount of OID
included in income by the initial U.S. Holder will be the sum of the daily
portions of OID for each day during the taxable year (or portion of the
taxable year) on which the U.S. Holder held the Note. The daily portion of OID
is determined by allocating to each day in any accrual period (i.e., the
interval between compounding dates) a ratable portion of the OID allocable to
that accrual period. The amount of OID allocable to each accrual period
generally is equal to the difference between the product of the Note's
adjusted issue price at the beginning of the accrual period and its yield to
maturity (determined on the basis of compounding at the close of each accrual
period and appropriately adjusted to take into account the length of the
particular accrual period). The adjusted issue price of a Note at the
beginning of any accrual period is the sum of the issue price of the Note plus
the amount of OID allocable to all prior accrual periods minus the amount of
any prior payments on the Note that were not qualified stated interest
payments. Under these rules, U.S. Holders of Notes generally will have to
include in income increasingly greater amounts of OID over the life of the
Notes.

A U.S. Holder who purchases a Note for an amount that is greater than its
adjusted issue price but less than or equal to the sum of all amounts payable
on the Note after the purchase date (other than payments of qualified stated
interest), will be considered to have purchased the Note at an acquisition
premium. Under the acquisition premium rules, the amount of original issue
discount that such U.S. Holder must include in its gross income with respect
to the Note for any taxable year (or portion thereof in which the U.S. Holder
holds the Note) will be reduced (but not below zero) by the portion of the
acquisition premium properly allocable to the period.

Market Discount

If a U.S. Holder purchases a Note for an amount that is less than its
adjusted issue price as of the purchase date, the U.S. Holder will be treated
as having purchased such Note at a market discount, unless such market
discount is less than a specified de minimis amount. Under the market discount
rules, a U.S. Holder will be required to treat any payment that does not
constitute qualified stated interest on, or any gain realized on the sale,
exchange, retirement, or other disposition of, a Note as ordinary income to
the extent of the lesser of (i) the amount of such payment or realized gain,
or (ii) the market discount which has not previously been included in income
and is treated as having accrued on such Note at the time of such payment or
disposition. Market discount will be considered to accrue ratably during the
period from the date of acquisition to the maturity date of the Note, unless
the U.S. Holder elects to accrue market discount on the basis of semiannual
compounding.

A U.S. Holder may be required to defer the deduction of all or a portion of
the interest paid or accrued on any indebtedness incurred or maintained to
purchase or carry a Note with market discount until the maturity of the Note
or certain earlier dispositions because a current deduction is only allowed to
the extent the interest

106
<PAGE>

expense exceeds an allocable portion of market discount. A U.S. Holder may
elect to include market discount in income currently as it accrues (on either
a ratable or semiannual compounding basis), in which case the rules described
above regarding the treatment as ordinary income of gain upon the disposition
of the Note and upon the receipt of certain cash payments and regarding the
deferral of interest deductions will not apply. Generally, such currently
included market discount is treated as ordinary interest for United States
federal income tax purposes. Such an election will apply to all debt
instruments acquired by the U.S. Holder on or after the first day of the
taxable year to which such election applies and may be revoked only with the
consent of the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS").

Premium

If a U.S. Holder purchases a Note for an amount in excess of the sum of all
amounts payable on the Note after the purchase date (other than payments of
qualified stated interest), the Note will not be subject to the OID rules and
the U.S. Holder may elect to treat such excess as amortizable bond premium, in
which case the amount of qualified stated interest required to be included in
the U.S. Holder's income each year with respect to interest on the Note will
be reduced by the amount of amortizable bond premium allocable (based on the
Note's yield to maturity) to such year. However, if such Note may be
optionally redeemed after the U.S. Holder acquires the Note at a price in
excess of its principal amount, special rules may apply. Any election to
amortize bond premium applies to all taxable debt obligations then owned and
thereafter acquired by the U.S. Holder and may be revoked only with the
consent of the IRS. A U.S. Holder that does not elect to amortize bond premium
generally will be entitled to treat the premium as capital loss when the Note
matures.

Election to Treat All Interest as OID

U.S. Holders generally may, upon election, include in income all interest
(including stated interest, acquisition discount, OID, de minimis OID, market
discount, de minimis market discount, and unstated interest, as adjusted by
any amortizable bond premium or acquisition premium) that accrues on a debt
instrument by using the constant yield method applicable to OID, subject to
certain limitations and exceptions.

SALE, EXCHANGE, REDEMPTION, REPAYMENT, OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THE NOTES

Upon the disposition of a Note by sale, exchange, redemption, or repayment,
a U.S. Holder generally will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference
between (i) the amount realized on such disposition (other than amounts
attributable to accrued interest), and (ii) the U.S. Holder's tax basis in the
Note. A U.S. Holder's tax basis in a Note generally will equal the U.S. dollar
cost of the Note (net of accrued interest) to the U.S. Holder (which in the
case of Note purchased with a Foreign Currency will be the U.S. dollar value
of the purchase price on the date of purchase), increased by amounts
includible in income as OID or market discount (if the U.S. Holder elects to
include market discount in income on a current basis), and reduced by any
amortized bond premium and any payments (other than payments of qualified
stated interest) made on such Note. The amount realized by a U.S. Holder on
the disposition of a Note for an amount in Foreign Currency will be the U.S.
dollar value of such amount on the date of the disposition. Because the Note
is held as a capital asset, such gain or loss (except to the extent that the
market discount rules otherwise provide) will constitute capital gain or loss.
In the case of a U.S. Holder who is an individual, any capital gain generally
will be subject to United States federal income tax at preferential rates if
specified minimum holding periods are met.

FOREIGN CURRENCY NOTES

The following discussion applies to U.S. Holders of the Notes because the
Notes are denominated in a Foreign Currency (i.e., German deutsche marks)
(Foreign Currency Notes). This discussion assumes that the Foreign Currency
Notes are not denominated in, or indexed to, a currency that is considered a
hyperinflationary currency.

Payments of Interest and OID

In general, the amount of income recognized by a cash basis U.S. Holder of a
Foreign Currency Note will be the U.S. dollar value of the interest payment,
based on the spot rate in effect on the date of receipt, regardless

107
<PAGE>

of whether the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars. Accrual basis
U.S. Holders may determine the amount of income recognized with respect to
such interest payment in accordance with either of two methods. Under the
first method, the amount of income recognized will be based on the average
exchange rate in effect during the interest accrual period (or, with respect
to an accrual period that spans two taxable years, the partial period within
the taxable year). Under the second method, an accrual basis U.S. Holder may
elect to translate interest income into U.S. dollars at the spot rate in
effect on the last day of the accrual period or, in the case of an accrual
period that spans two taxable years, at the exchange rate in effect on the
last day of the taxable year. Additionally, if a payment of interest is
actually received within 5 business days of the last day of the accrual period
or taxable year, an accrual basis U.S. Holder applying the second method
instead may translate such accrued interest into U.S. dollars at the spot rate
in effect on the day of actual receipt (in which case no exchange gain or loss
will result). Any election to apply the second method will apply to all debt
instruments held by the U.S. Holder at the beginning of the first taxable year
to which the election applies or thereafter acquired by the U.S. Holder and
may not be revoked without the consent of the IRS. Upon receipt of an interest
payment (including a payment attributable to accrued but unpaid interest upon
the sale or retirement of a Foreign Currency Note) determined by reference to
a Foreign Currency, an accrual basis U.S. Holder will recognize exchange gain
or loss (which will be treated as ordinary income or loss) if the exchange
rate in effect on the date of receipt differs from the rate applicable to the
previous accrual of that interest income.

OID is determined in units of the Foreign Currency at the time of
acquisition of the Foreign Currency Note and is translated into U.S. dollars
in the same manner that an accrual basis U.S. Holder accrues stated interest.
Exchange gain or loss will be determined when OID is considered paid to the
extent the exchange rate on the date of payment differs from the exchange rate
at which the OID was accrued.

Amortizable Bond Premium

Amortizable bond premium on a Foreign Currency Note will be computed in
units of Foreign Currency and will reduce interest income in units of the
Foreign Currency. At the time amortized bond premium offsets interest income,
a U.S. Holder may realize ordinary income or loss, measured by the difference
between exchange rates at that time and at the time of the acquisition of the
Foreign Currency Note.

Market Discount

Market discount on a Foreign Currency Note is determined in units of the
Foreign Currency. Accrued market discount that is required to be taken into
account on the maturity or upon disposition of a Foreign Currency Note is
translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the maturity or the
disposition date, as the case may be (and no part is treated as exchange gain
or loss). Accrued market discount currently includible in income by an
electing U.S. Holder is translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange
rate for the accrual period (or the partial accrual period during which the
U.S. Holder held the Foreign Currency Note), and exchange gain or loss is
determined on maturity or disposition of the Foreign Currency Note (as the
case may be) in the manner described above under Foreign Currency Notes--
Payments Of Interest And OID with respect to the computation of exchange gain
or loss on the receipt of accrued interest by an accrual method holder.

Exchange Gain or Loss

Gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder on the sale, exchange, repayment,
retirement, or other disposition of a Foreign Currency Note that is
attributable to changes in exchange rates will be treated as ordinary income
or loss. However, exchange gain or loss is taken into account only to the
extent of total gain or loss realized on the transaction.

Exchange of Amounts in Other Than U.S. Dollars

The cost of a Foreign Currency Note to a U.S. Holder will be the U.S. dollar
value of the Foreign Currency purchase price translated at the spot rate for
the date of purchase (or, in some cases, the settlement date). Foreign

108
<PAGE>

Currency received as interest on a Note or on the sale, exchange, repayment,
retirement, or other disposition of a Note will have a tax basis equal to its
U.S. dollar value at the time such interest is received or at the time of such
disposition, as the case may be. Foreign Currency that is purchased generally
will have a tax basis equal to the U.S. dollar value of the Foreign Currency
on the date of purchase. Any gain or loss recognized on a sale or other
disposition of a Foreign Currency (including its use to purchase Foreign
Currency Notes or upon exchange for U.S. dollars) will be ordinary income or
loss.

NON-U.S. HOLDERS

The following is a brief summary of the United States federal income tax
consequences that may be applicable to a holder of a Note other than a U.S.
Holder (a "Non-U.S. Holder"). For purposes of the following discussion,
interest (including OID) and gain on the sale, exchange, or other disposition
of a Note will be considered "U.S. trade or business income" if such income or
gain is (i) effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in
the United States, or (ii) if a tax treaty applies, attributable to a
permanent establishment in the United States. In addition, any Additional
Amounts payable by the Company to a Non-U.S. Holder will be treated as
interest for United States federal income tax purposes.

INTEREST AND OID

In general, any interest or OID paid to a Non-U.S. Holder of a Note will not
be subject to United States federal income tax if (i) the interest or OID is
not U.S. trade or business income, and (ii) as discussed below, either (A)
with respect to such payment of interest or OID, the Company meets the 80%
foreign business requirements of Section 861(c)(1) of the Code (the 80%
foreign business requirements test), or (B) the interest or OID qualifies as
"portfolio interest."

United States federal income tax will not be imposed on any interest or OID
paid to a Non-U.S. Holder of a Note if the 80% foreign business requirements
test is satisfied. The 80% foreign business requirements test will be met
generally if it is shown to the satisfaction of the Secretary of the U.S.
Treasury that at least 80% of the gross income from all sources of the Company
for the relevant testing period is active foreign business income. For
purposes of this test, (i) the testing period is the three-year period ending
with the close of the Company's taxable year immediately preceding the payment
of interest or OID (or the taxable year of the payment if the Company had no
gross income for such three-year period), and (ii) active foreign business
income is gross income that is derived from sources outside the United States
and is attributable to the active conduct of a trade or business in a foreign
country or possession of the United States by the Company (or a subsidiary).
If interest or OID is received by a "related person" (as defined in Section
861(c)(2)(B) of the Code), a portion of the payment would not qualify for
exemption from United States federal income tax under the 80% foreign business
requirements test.

In addition, any interest or OID paid to a Non-U.S. Holder of a Note
generally will not be subject to United States federal income tax if the
interest or OID qualifies as portfolio interest. Interest or OID on the Notes
generally will qualify as portfolio interest if (i) the Non-U.S. Holder does
not actually or constructively own 10% or more of the total combined voting
power of all classes of stock of the Company entitled to vote, (ii) the Non-
U.S. Holder is not a controlled foreign corporation (as defined in the Code)
with respect to which the Company is a "related person" within the meaning of
the Code, and (iii) either (A) the Non-U.S. Holder certifies to the Company or
its agent under penalties of perjury that it is not a United States person and
such certificate provides such Non-U.S. Holder's name and address, or (B) in
the case of a Note held by a securities clearing organization, bank, or other
financial institution that holds customers' securities in the ordinary course
of its trade or business (a "financial institution"), the financial
institution certifies to the Company or its agent under penalties of perjury
that such certificate has been received from the Non-U.S. Holder by it or by
another financial institution and the financial institution furnishes the
payor with a copy of the Non-U.S. Holder's certificate.

If the 80% foreign business requirement test is not met and the interest or
OID neither qualifies as portfolio interest nor is treated as U.S. trade or
business income, the gross amount of the payment generally will be subject

109
<PAGE>

to United States withholding tax at the rate of 30%, unless such rate is
reduced or eliminated by an applicable income tax treaty. U.S. trade or
business income generally will be subject to United States federal income tax
at regular rates in the same manner as if the Non-U.S. Holder were a U.S.
Holder (and, in the case of a Non-U.S. Holder that is a corporation, such
income, under certain circumstances, may be subject to an additional "branch
profits tax" at a 30% rate or such lower rate as may be applicable under an
income tax treaty), but such income generally will not be subject to the 30%
withholding tax. To claim the benefit of a lower or zero withholding rate
under an income tax treaty or to claim exemption from withholding because the
income is U.S. trade or business income, the Non-U.S. Holder must provide the
payor with a properly executed IRS Form 1001 or 4224, respectively (or, in the
case of payments made after December 31, 1998, IRS Form W-8) prior to the
payment of interest or OID.

SALE, EXCHANGE, REPAYMENT, RETIREMENT, OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THE NOTES

Any gain realized by a Non-U.S. Holder on the sale, exchange, repayment,
retirement, or other disposition of a Note will not be subject to United
States federal income or withholding taxes unless (i) such gain is U.S. trade
or business income, or (ii) in the case of an individual, such Non-U.S. Holder
is present in the United States for 183 days or more and certain other
conditions are met.

UNITED STATES FEDERAL ESTATE TAX

Notes held by an individual who is neither a citizen nor a resident of the
United States for United States federal estate tax purposes at the time of
such individual's death will not be subject to United States federal estate
tax unless (i) the Company would not meet the 80% foreign business
requirements test (as described above under "Non-U.S. Holders--Interest And
OID") with respect to any interest or OID on the Note were such interest or
OID received by the Non-U.S. Holder at the time of death, and (ii) the income
from such Notes would not qualify as portfolio interest (as described above
under Non-U.S. Holders--Interest And OID), without regard to the certification
requirements, if received by such individual at the time of his or her death.

INFORMATION REPORTING AND BACKUP WITHHOLDING

Payments made in respect of the Notes to a U.S. Holder must be reported by
the Company to the IRS, unless the U.S. Holder is an exempt recipient or
establishes an exemption. Generally, individuals are not exempt recipients,
whereas corporations and certain other entities generally are exempt
recipients. In addition, backup withholding of United States federal income
tax at a rate of 31% may apply to payments made in respect of the Notes to
U.S. Holders who are not exempt recipients and who fail to provide certain
identifying information (such as the registered owner's taxpayer
identification number) in the required manner.

The Company will be required to report annually to the IRS and to each Non-
U.S. Holder the amount of interest or OID paid to, and the amount of tax
withheld with respect to, each Non-U.S. Holder. This information also may be
made available to tax authorities in the country in which the Non-U.S. Holder
resides in accordance with the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty.
Under current Treasury Regulations, information reporting and backup
withholding will not apply to payments of principal on the Notes by the
Company or any agent thereof (in its capacity as such) to a Non-U.S. Holder of
a Note if the Non-U.S. Holder has provided the required certification that it
is not a United States person or has otherwise established an exemption,
provided that neither the Company nor its agent has actual knowledge that the
holder is a United States person or that the conditions of any exemption are
not in fact satisfied. Compliance with the certification procedures described
in the discussion of portfolio interest (see "--Non-U.S. Holders--Interest And
OID") would establish an exemption for those non-U.S. Holders who are not
exempt recipients.

Payment of the proceeds from a sale of a Note to or through the U.S. office
of a broker generally will be subject to information reporting and backup
withholding unless the holder or beneficial owner certifies as to its taxpayer
identification number (or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Holder, certifies its
non-U.S. status) or otherwise establishes an exemption from information
reporting and backup withholding. Payment of the proceeds from the

110
<PAGE>

sale of a Note to or through a foreign office of a broker will not be subject
to information reporting or backup withholding, except that if the broker is a
United States person, a controlled foreign corporation for United States tax
purposes, a foreign person 50% or more of whose gross income from all sources
for the three-year period ending with the close of its taxable year preceding
the payment was effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business, then
information reporting may apply to such payments.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the
backup withholding rules from a payment to a beneficial owner would be allowed
as a refund or a credit against such beneficial owner's United States federal
income tax provided the required information is furnished to the IRS.

In October 1997, final Treasury Regulations were issued that effect the
information reporting and backup withholding requirements applicable to
payments in respect of a Note made after December 31, 1998. Holders of the
Notes should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the possible
application of such final regulations to any payments made in respect of the
Notes.

UNDERWRITING

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in a purchase agreement dated
the date of this Prospectus (the "Purchase Agreement") among the Issuer,
Merrill Lynch Capital Markets Bank Limited Frankfurt/Main Branch, as lead
manager and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (together, the
"Underwriters"), the Issuer has agreed to sell to the Underwriters, and the
Underwriters have agreed to purchase from the Issuer, DM aggregate principal
amount at maturity of the Notes. Each of the Underwriters has agreed to
purchase the principal amount of the Notes set forth opposite its name below,
if any Notes are purchased.

</TABLE>

The Purchase Agreement provides that the obligation of the Underwriters to
pay for and accept delivery of the Notes is subject to, among other
conditions, the delivery of certain legal opinions by its counsel.

The Underwriters have agreed to reimburse the Company for the expenses
incurred in connection with the Offering equal to .25% of the principal amount
of the Notes at Maturity.

The Underwriters have advised the Issuer that they propose initially to
offer the Notes to the public at the price to public set forth on the cover
page of this Prospectus, and to certain dealers at such price less a
concession not in excess of % per Note. The Underwriters may allow, and such
dealers may reallow, a discount not in excess of % per Note to certain other
dealers. After the Offering, the public offering price, concession and
discount may be changed.

The Issuer has agreed that it will not for a period of 180 days from the
date of this Prospectus, without the consent of the Underwriters, directly or
indirectly offer, sell, grant any option to purchase, or otherwise dispose of,
any debt securities of the Issuer or securities of the Issuer that are
convertible into, or exchangeable for, the Notes or such other debt
securities.

The Issuer has agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against certain
liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute
to payments the Underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.

The Underwriters do not intend to confirm sales of Notes offered hereby to
any accounts over which it exercises discretionary authority.

There is currently no public market for the Notes. Accordingly, there can be
no assurance as to the liquidity of any market that may develop for the Notes,
the ability of holders of the Notes to sell their Notes or at what price such
holders would be able to sell their Notes. If such a market were to develop,
the Notes could trade at prices that may be lower than the initial offering
price thereof, depending on many factors, including prevailing interest rates,
the Issuer's operating results and markets for similar debt securities. The
Underwriters, have advised the Issuer that they currently intend to make a
market in the Notes. However, they are not obligated to do so, and any market
making with respect to the Notes may be discontinued at any time without
notice at the sole discretion of the Underwriters. If an active public market
does not develop, the market price and liquidity of the Notes may be adversely
affected. The Issuer does not intend to apply for listing of the Notes on any
national securities exchange or for quotation of the Notes through an
automated quotation system.

Historically, the market for non-investment grade debt has been subject to
disruptions that have caused substantial volatility in the prices of
securities similar to the Notes. There can be no assurance that the market for
the Notes will not be subject to similar disruptions.

112
<PAGE>

Until the distribution of the Notes is completed, rules of the Commission
may limit the ability of the Underwriter and certain selling group members to
bid for and purchase the Notes. As an exception to these rules, the
Underwriters are permitted to engage in certain transactions that stabilize
the price of the Notes. Such transactions consist of bids or purchases for the
purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of the Notes.

If Underwriters create a short position in the Notes in connection with the
Offering, i.e., if they sell more Notes than are set forth on the cover page
of this Prospectus, the Underwriters may reduce that short position by
purchasing Notes in the open market.

The Underwriters may also impose a penalty bid on selling group members.
This means that if the Underwriters purchase Notes in the open market to
reduce the short position or to stabilize the price of the Notes, they may
reclaim the amount of the selling concession from selling group members who
sold those Notes as part of the Offering.

In general, purchases of a security for the purpose of stabilization or to
reduce a short position could cause the price of the security to be higher
than it might be in the absence of such purchases. The imposition of a penalty
bid might also have an effect on the price of a security to the extent that it
were to discourage resales of the security.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Euronet Services Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Euronet
Services Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 and 1996 and the
related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, changes
in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-
year period ended December 31, 1997. These consolidated financial statements
are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our
audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards in the United States of America. Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Euronet
Services Inc. and subsidiaries at December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the results
of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-
year period ended December 31, 1997 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States of America.

EURONET SERVICES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) ORGANIZATION AND FORMATION OF HOLDING COMPANY

Euronet Services Inc. (the "Company") was established as a Delaware
corporation on December 13, 1996 and capitalized on March 6, 1997. Euronet
Services Inc. succeeded Euronet Holding N.V. as the group holding company.

Euronet Services Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively "Euronet") is an
independent shared automatic teller machine (ATM) network and service provider
to banks and financial institutions. Euronet serves banks by providing ATMs
that accept cards with international logos such as VISA, American Express and
Mastercard and proprietary bank cards issued by member banks. The subsidiaries
of Euronet, all of which are wholly owned, are:

--Euronet Holding N.V., incorporated in the Netherlands Antilles
--Euronet-Bank Tech Rt. (Bank Tech), incorporated in Hungary
--SatComNet Kft (SatComNet), incorporated in Hungary
--Bankomat 24/Euronet Sp. z o.o. (Bankomat), incorporated in Poland
--EFT-Usluge d o.o., incorporated in Croatia
--Euronet Services GmbH, incorporated in Germany
--Euronet Services France SAS, incorporated in France
--Euronet Services spol. sro, incorporated in the Czech Republic

The following is a description of the events leading up to the formation of
the Company. Bank Tech was established on June 22, 1994 by Michael Brown
(Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Euronet) and Daniel Henry
with an initial capital contribution of $10,000. Pursuant to a joint venture
agreement dated July 19, 1994, certain new shareholders and Michael Brown
contributed $2,640,000 in cash as additional capital to Bank Tech and Daniel
Henry transferred his interest to Michael Brown for a purchase price equal to
his original contribution. The additional capital raised by Bank Tech did not
result in a new controlling group, accordingly the accounting bases of the
assets and liabilities of Bank Tech remained unchanged. On February 20, 1995,
the joint venture agreement was amended under which a new investor and a
shareholder of Bank Tech acquired SatComNet for a purchase price of $491,000
in cash. SatComNet was a shell entity with no substantive operations before
such date. SatComNet is engaged in telecommunication services by facilitating
satellite link up to Bank Tech. The acquisition was accounted for under the
purchase method of accounting, accordingly, the results of operations of
SatComNet are included in the consolidated statements of operations since the
date of acquisition. The purchase price approximated the fair value of the net
assets acquired, which mainly consisted of cash and equipment. Furthermore and
pursuant to such amended joint venture agreement, the shareholders of
SatComNet and a new shareholder agreed to contribute $956,000 in cash as
additional capital to Bank Tech and also agreed to exchange their interest
held in such companies to create identical ownership of Bank Tech and
SatComNet. The capital raised by Bank Tech and the exchange of shares did not
result in a new controlling group, accordingly, the accounting bases of the
assets and liabilities of Bank Tech and SatComNet remained unchanged. Michael
Brown established Bankomat on August 8, 1995 with $2,000 in capital. A further
capital increase of $61,000 was made by Michael Brown on December 7, 1995.

On February 15, 1996 the shareholders of Bank Tech and SatComNet terminated
their amended joint venture agreement and entered into a shareholders'
agreement reorganizing the ownership of Bank Tech, SatComNet and Bankomat.
Under the shareholders' agreement, the investors contributed, on March 27,
1996, all of their shares and interest in Bank Tech, SatComNet and Bankomat in
exchange for 499,100 common shares and 4,419,800 Series A convertible
preferred shares of Euronet Holding N.V. The transaction has been accounted
for as a combination of entities under common control at historical cost in a
manner similar to pooling of interest accounting. Under this method, the
Company recorded the assets and liabilities received at their historical cost,
common shares ($7,000) and Series A convertible preferred shares ($63,000)
were established for the par value

of the shares issued, accumulated losses were eliminated ($3,524,000) and the
resulting difference was recorded as additional paid in capital ($122,000). In
addition, new shareholders contributed $5,500,000 in cash and a subscription
receivable of $500,000 to the capital of Euronet Holding N.V. in exchange for
4,200,000 Series B convertible preferred shares.

standby commitment from certain existing investors (Poland Partners LP, Advent
Partners LP, Advent Private Equity Fund-CELP, Poland Investment Fund LP,
Hungarian Private Equity Fund and DST Systems Inc.) in return for 466,669
series B convertible preferred shares.

On February 3, 1997, Euronet Holding N.V. signed a Subscription Agreement

Capital purchased 710,507 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Shares of
Euronet Holding N.V. for an aggregate purchase price of $3 million. Pursuant
to the "claw back" option of this agreement, on June 16, 1997, the Company
repurchased 292,607 shares of Euronet Holding N.V. at the original par value.

Effective March 5, 1997, Euronet Holding N.V. changed the stated par value
of all common and preferred shares of the Company from $0.10 to $0.14. Euronet
Holding N.V. then effected a seven-for-one stock split which became effective
on March 5, 1997, thus reducing the par value of such shares to $0.02. This
change in par value and stock split was retroactively taken into account for
common and preferred shares. Subsequently, effective March 6, 1997, the
holders of all of the preferred shares of Euronet Holding N.V. converted all
of such preferred shares into common shares of Euronet Holding N.V.

Pursuant to an Exchange Agreement which became effective on March 6, 1997,
entered into between Euronet Services Inc. and the shareholders and option
holders of Euronet Holding N.V., 10,296,076 shares of common stock in the
Company were issued to the shareholders of Euronet Holding N.V. in exchange
for all the common shares of Euronet Holding N.V. In addition, options to
acquire 3,113,355 shares of common stock of the Company were issued to the
holders of options to acquire 3,113,355 common shares of Euronet Holding N.V.
and awards with respect to 800,520 shares of common stock of the Company were
issued to the holders of awards with respect to 800,520 preferred shares of
Euronet Holding N.V. in exchange for all such awards.

On March 7, 1997, the Company consummated an initial public offering of
6,095,000 shares of common stock at a price of $13.50 per share. Of the
6,095,000 shares sold, 3,833,650 shares were sold by the Company and 2,261,350
shares by certain selling shareholders. Net proceeds to the Company were
approximately $47.9 million after deduction of the underwriting discount and
other expenses of the offering.

(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PRACTICES

(a) Basis of presentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

The financial statements for the period from January 1, 1995 through March
27, 1996 have been presented as if the operating entities had been combined
from their respective dates of incorporation/acquisition. For the period from
March 27, 1996 to March 6, 1997 the consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of Euronet Holding N.V. and its subsidiaries. Subsequent to March
6, 1997 the consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its subsidiaries.

All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)

(b) Transfer of non monetary assets

The transfer of the share holdings held by the shareholders in Bank 24,
SatComNet and Bankomat in exchange for shares in Euronet Holding N.V. have
been recorded at the underlying net equity of the operating entities which is
the historical cost. The formation of the Euronet Services Inc. has also been
accounted for at historical cost. The transfer of assets by shareholders have
been recorded at the transferors' historical cost basis.

Foreign currency transactions are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing
at the date of the transactions. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are remeasured at rates of exchange at balance sheet date. Gains
and losses on foreign currency transactions are included in the statement of
operations.

The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries where the local currency is
the functional currency are translated to U.S. dollars using (i) exchange
rates in effect at period end for assets and liabilities, and (ii) average
exchange rates during the period for results of operations. Adjustments
resulting from translation of financial statements are reflected as a separate
component of stockholders' equity.

The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries where the functional
currency in the U.S. dollar are remeasured using historical exchange rates for
non-monetary items while current exchange rates are used for monetary items.
Foreign exchange gains and losses arising from the remeasurement are reported
in the statement of operations.

(d) Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost. Equipment under capital
leases are stated at the lesser of fair value of the leased equipment and the
present value of future minimum lease payments.

Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of the assets. Equipment held under capital leases and leasehold
improvements are amortized straight line over their estimated useful lives.

Depreciation and amortization periods are as follows:

<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Automatic teller machines................................ 7 years
Computers and software................................... 3 years
Vehicles & office equipment.............................. 5 years
Cassettes................................................ 1 year
Leasehold improvements................................... Over the lease term
</TABLE>

(e) Impairment of long-lived assets

Euronet assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets (mainly property,
plant and equipment) by determining whether the carrying value of the fixed
assets can be recovered over the remaining lives through projected
undiscounted future operating cash flows expected to be generated by the
assets. If an impairment in value is estimated to have occurred, the assets
carrying value is reduced to its estimated fair value. The assessment of the
recoverability of long-lived assets will be impacted if estimated future
operating cash flows are not achieved.

(f) Income taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and
operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured
using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in
which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The
effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is
recognized in the income in the period that includes the enactment date.

A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets has been established on the
basis of the Company's estimate of taxable income for future periods.

(g) Risks and uncertainties

Euronet at this time, remains dependent on a limited group of customers and
network services are limited to those areas where ATMs have been installed.

The Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions related to the
reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities to prepare these financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.

(h) Revenue recognition

Euronet recognizes revenue at the point at which the service is performed.

(i) Cash equivalents

For the purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all
highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three
months or less to be cash equivalents.

(j) Investment securities

The Company has classified all of its investment securities as held-to-
maturity. Held-to-maturity securities are those securities in which the
Company has the ability and intent to hold the security to maturity. Held-to-
maturity securities are recorded at amortized cost, adjusted for the
amortization or accretion of premium and discounts. A decline in the market
value of any held-to-maturity security below cost that is deemed other than
temporary results in a reduction in the carrying amount to fair value. The
impairment is charged to earnings and a new cost basis for the security is
established. Premium and discounts are amortized or accreted over the life or
term of the related held-to-maturity security as an adjustment to yield using
the effective interest method.

(k) Loss per share

The Company, effective for the year ended December 31, 1997, adopted
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings per
Share." Pursuant to the provisions of the statement, basic loss per share has
been computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The
number of shares outstanding prior to the formation of Euronet Holding N.V.
have been adjusted to the equivalent shares of the Company. The effect of
potential common shares (stock options outstanding) is antidilutive.
Accordingly, dilutive loss per share does not assume the exercise of stock
options outstanding.

F-11

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)

(l) Stock-based compensation

SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", encourages but does
not require companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee
compensation plans at fair value. The Company has chosen to account for stock-
based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees"
and related Interpretations. Accordingly, compensation cost for share options
is measured as the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Company's
shares at the date of the grant over the exercise price. Such compensation
cost is charged to expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of
the respective options. If vesting is accelerated as a result of certain
milestones, the unrecognized compensation would be recorded as expense on the
date such milestones have or have been deemed to have been achieved. The
Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123 (refer to
note (9)).

(m) Reclassifications

Certain amounts have been reclassified in the prior year financial
statements to conform to the 1997 financial statements presentation.

(3) RESTRICTED RESERVE

The restricted reserve arose from the provisions of Hungarian accounting law
in relation to share capital contributed in foreign currency to Bank Tech and
SatComNet. Under these rules, a foreign currency capital contribution is
recorded in the local accounting records of the companies using the rate when
the capital was contributed. The foreign currency gain (or loss) which arises
upon usage of the foreign currency is recorded as a separate non distributable
reserve.

The reserve has remained frozen during the year as the laws in Hungary have
now changed and no longer require this accounting. However, the change in the
law is not retroactive and the historical reserve remains undistributable.

(4) RESTRICTED CASH

The restricted cash balance as of December 31, 1996 and 1997 were as
follows:

<TABLE>

The ATM deposit balances held are equivalent to the value of certain banks'
cash held in Euronet's ATM network. The Company also has deposits with
commercial banks to cover guarantees and deposits with customs officials to
cover charges.

(5) INVESTMENT SECURITIES

The amortized cost for short-term held-to-maturity securities by class
security type at December 31, 1996 and 1997, were as follows:

The carrying value of all investment securities at December 31, 1996 and
1997 approximates fair market value.

All investment securities held at December 31, 1997 mature on or before July
1, 1998.

(6) SHORT TERM BORROWINGS

Short term borrowings represent Hungarian forint denominated loans granted
by a commercial bank in Hungary to permit such bank to supply cash to the ATM
network. The loan outstanding at December 31, 1997 is due on June 16, 1998
together with interest accrued at 27%. Euronet has collateralized this loan by
the pledge of certain investment securities with a value approximately the
outstanding balance of the loan.

(7) LEASES

(a) Capital leases

The Company leases the majority of its ATMs under capital lease agreements
that expire between 1999 and 2002 and bear interest at rates between 11% and
15%. Lease installments are paid on a monthly, quarterly or semi-annual basis.
Euronet has the right to extend the term of certain leases at the conclusion
of the lease period. In addition to the related equipment, one lease in Poland
is secured by a pledge of certain accounts receivable and a letter of credit
from a commercial bank.

A related entity, Windham Technologies Inc. has the option to purchase the
ATMs under capital lease in Hungary at the end of the lease term at a bargain
purchase price of $1 plus incidental expenses (see note [11]).

Euronet also has two lease agreements for computers for use as its central
processing and authorization center for ATM transactions. One lease has a term
expiring in 1999 and the other in 2000 and they bear interest at a rate of 15%
and 12%, respectively, and are payable quarterly.

The gross amount of the ATMs and IBM computer and related accumulated
amortization recorded under capital leases were as follows:

1997, respectively. These amounts are included with depreciation expense.

(b) Operating leases

The Company also has non-cancellable operating rental leases for office
space which expire over the next 2 to 5 years. Rent expense under these leases
amounted to $158,000, $270,000 and $433,000 for the years ended December 31,
1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively.

period January 1, 1996 through March 27, 1996. Upon formation of

EURONET SERVICES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)

Euronet Holding N.V. on March 27, 1996 and through March 7, 1997, the income
tax benefit was calculated solely on the basis of the taxable loss of Euronet
Holding N.V. Subsequent to March 7, 1997, the income tax benefit was
calculated solely on the basis of the taxable loss of the Company. The
difference between the actual income tax benefit and the tax benefit computed
by applying the statutory income tax rate (34% for United States, 3% for
Netherlands Antilles, 18% for Hungary and 38% for Poland) to losses before
taxes is attributable to the following:

</TABLE>

As a result of the formation of the Company a portion of the stock
compensation cost recorded in 1996 became a temporary difference for which the
Company recognized a gross deferred tax asset of $1,402,404 in 1997. A
valuation allowance for this deferred tax asset was established. During 1997,
certain of the stock options were exercised resulting in a deduction of
$1,005,937 in the Company's tax return. Because of the tax loss position of
the Company in the United States, this tax deduction has not been realized but
recharacterized as a tax loss carryforward. The Company has also established a
valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset resulting from the tax loss
carryforward in the United States. Should this tax loss carryforward be
utilized in the future, $951,553 of the tax benefit would be recorded as an
adjustment to additional paid in capital.

The tax effect of temporary differences and carryforwards which give rise to
deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows:

The valuation allowance relates to deferred tax assets established under
SFAS No. 109 for loss carryforwards at December 31, 1996 and 1997 of
$8,686,000 and $19,989,000, respectively. The tax operating loss carryforwards
will expire through 2000 for Bankomat and through 2002 for Bank Tech,
SatComNet and Euronet Holding N.V. The tax operating losses for Euronet
Services Inc. and Euronet Services GmbH can be carried forward indefinitely.
Based on the Company's forecast of sufficient taxable income for future
periods in which the tax losses are expected to be absorbed, the Company
believes that it will realise the benefit of the deferred tax assets, net of
the existing valuation allowance.

(9) STOCK PLANS

The Company has established a share compensation plan which provides certain
employees options to purchase shares of its common stock. The options vest
over a period of five years from the date of grant. Options are exercisable
during the term of employment or consulting arrangements with the Company and
its subsidiaries. The Company has the right to repurchase shares within 180
days from an employee who has exercised his options but has ceased to be
employed by Euronet. At December 31, 1997, the Company has authorized options
for the purchase of 1,299,550 shares of common stock, of which 1,289,447 have
been awarded to employees and 1,061,316 remain unexercised.

In accordance with the shareholders' agreement dated February 15, 1996 and
amended on October 14, 1996, the Company has reserved 2,850,925 shares of
common stock for the purpose of awarding common stock ("milestone awards") to
certain investors and options to acquire shares of common stock ("milestone
options") to the founders, management and key employees. The Company granted
800,520 milestone awards at an exercise price of $0.02 per share and 2,050,405
milestone options at an exercise price of $2.14 per share.

Upon the initial public offering, all milestone awards and milestone options
granted under the milestone arrangement (with the exception of 49,819 options
to certain key employees which will vest equally over two years following the
initial public offering) vested and all shares became immediately issuable to
beneficiaries of milestone awards and options. Upon the initial public
offering, 800,520 milestone awards and 232,078 milestone options were
exercised. As at December 31, 1997, 1,736,890 milestone options remain
unexercised.

The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for its share option
plans. The exercise price of the options is established based on the estimated
fair value of the underlying shares at grant date. For options granted prior
to the initial public offering, the fair value was determined by taking into
consideration the per share price at which the most recent sale of equity
securities was made by Euronet to investors. For options granted after the
initial public offering, the fair value is determined by the market price of
the share at the date of grant. However, in contemplation of the initial
public offering in March 1997, compensation expense was recognized in 1996
relating to all options granted during the fourth quarter of 1996. Such
compensation expense was calculated as the excess of the fair market value of
the underlying shares (determined as $4.22, which is the cash price per share
at which GE Capital subscribed for preferred shares of Euronet Holding N.V. in
February 1997) over the exercise price of $2.14 per share. Compensation
expense of $4,172,000 has been recorded in the 1996 consolidated financial
statements and an additional compensation expense of $343,000 with respect to
these options will be recognized over the remaining vesting period of such
options. Of this amount, $108,000 has been expensed in the year ended December
31, 1997.

The following table provides the fair value of options granted during 1995,
1996 and 1997 together with a description of the assumptions used to calculate
the fair value:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)

Had the Company determined compensation cost based on the fair value at the
grant date for its stock options under SFAS No. 123, consolidated net loss and
net loss per share would have been increased to the amounts indicated below:

<TABLE>

Loss per share-pro forma.......... $ (4.00) $ (16.41) $ (0.69)
</TABLE>

Pro forma import reflects only options granted since December 31, 1994.
Therefore, the full impact of calculating compensation cost for stock options
under SFAS No. 123 is not reflected in the pro forma amounts presented above
because compensation cost is reflected over the options' vesting periods and
compensation cost for options granted prior to January 1, 1995 is not
considered.

(10) BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

Euronet and its subsidiaries operate in one business segment, the service of
providing an independent shared ATM network to the banks and financial
institutions that it serves.

Total revenues for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997 and long
lived assets at December 31, 1996 and 1997 for the Company analyzed by

Total revenues are attributed to countries based on location of customer.
Long-lived assets consist of property, plant, and equipment.

(11) RELATED PARTIES

Windham Technologies Inc. ("Windham") holds the option to purchase certain
ATMs at the end of the lease term. Windham is jointly owned by two
shareholders of the Company. Windham has signed an undertaking to contribute
these assets to Euronet at the end of the lease at a bargain purchase price of
$1 plus incidental expenses.

In addition, payments of $320,000, $425,000 and $94,000 have been made for
the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively, to Windham.
These payments cover the services and related expenses of consultants seconded
by Windham to the Company. These services include AS400 computer expertise,
bank marketing and management support.

(12) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Euronet's financial instruments (cash, receivables, investment securities,
accounts payable, short term borrowings, notes payable and accrued expenses)
are principally short-term in nature. Accordingly, the carrying value of these
investments approximates its fair value.

EURONET SERVICES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)

(13) CONCENTRATIONS OF BUSINESS AND CREDIT RISK

Euronet is subject to concentrations of business and credit risk. Euronet's
financial instruments mainly include trade receivables, cash and short-term
investments. Euronet's customer base, even though limited, includes the most
significant international card organizations and certain banks in the markets
in which it operates. Therefore, the Company is dependent on these entities
and its operations are directly affected by the financial condition of those
entities. The Company has two individually significant customers in Hungary
which account for 51% and 18%, respectively, of total consolidated revenue for
the year ended December 31, 1997. In January 1998, the Company's most
significant customer which accounts for 51% of consolidated revenues for the
year ended December 31, 1997, notified the Company that it was terminating its
contract effective July 1998.

Cash and short-term investments are placed with high-credit quality
financial institutions or in short-term duration, high-quality debt securities
issued by the Hungarian government. Euronet does not require collateral or
other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk.
Management believes that the credit risk associated with trade receivables,
cash and short-term investments is minimal due to the control procedures which
monitor credit worthiness of customers and financial institutions.

The Company has made an assessment of the impact of the advent of the year
2000 on its systems and operations. The Processing Center will require certain
upgrades which have been ordered and are scheduled for installation by the
fourth quarter of 1998. Most of the ATMs in the Company's network are not year
2000 compliant, and hardware and software upgrades will be installed under
contract with the Company's ATM maintenance vendors. According to the
Company's current estimates, the cost will be approximately $1,000 per ATM,
and the required installation will be finished by the end of 1998. The Company
estimates that approximately 560 of its ATMs will require upgrades for year
2000 compliance.

The Company is currently planning a survey of its bank customers concerning
the compliance of their back office systems with year 2000 requirements, and
anticipates launching such survey in the third quarter of 1998. If the
Company's bank customers do not bring their card authorization systems into
compliance with year 2000 requirements, the Company may be unable to process
transactions on cards issued by such banks and may lose revenues from such
transactions. This could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
revenues. Therefore, Euronet will monitor, and hopes to assist its bank
clients in, implementation of its customers' year 2000 compliance programs,
and may, if required to accelerate the compliance programs of its banks,
create consulting capabilities in this respect.

(14) COMMITMENTS

The Company is committed to purchase ATMs from certain suppliers for
approximately $1.2 million.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

Articles Eighth and Ninth of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation
provide as follows:

"EIGHTH: The Corporation shall indemnify each of the individuals who may
be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the
General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as it may be amended from
time to time ("Section 145"), (i) in each and every situation where the
Corporation is obligated to make such indemnification pursuant to Section
145, and (ii) in each and every situation where, under Section 145, the
Corporation is not obligated, but is permitted or empowered, to make such
indemnification. The Corporation shall promptly make or cause to be made
any determination which Section 145 requires.

NINTH: A director of the Corporation shall not be personally liable to
the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of
fiduciary duty as a director. This provision shall not eliminate or limit
the liability of a director (i) for any breach of the director's duty of
loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions
not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing
violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the General Corporation Law of
the State of Delaware, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director
derived any improper personal benefit. If the General Corporation Law of
the State of Delaware is subsequently amended to further eliminate or limit
the liability of the director, then a director of the Corporation, in
addition to the circumstances in which a director is not personally liable
as set forth in the preceding sentence, shall not be liable to the fullest
extent permitted by the amended General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware."

Article VII of the Company's By-laws provides as follows:

"Section 1 INDEMNIFICATION AND EXCULPATION. Reference is hereby made to
Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (or any
successor provision thereto). The Corporation shall indemnify each person
who may be indemnified (the "Indemnitees") pursuant to such section to the
full extent permitted thereby. In each and every situation where the
Corporation may do so under such section, the Corporation hereby obligates
itself to so indemnify the Indemnitees, and in each case, if any, where the
Corporation must make certain investigations on a case-by-case basis prior
to indemnification, the Corporation hereby obligates itself to pursue such
investigation diligently, it being the specific intention of these Bylaws
to obligate the Corporation to indemnify each person whom it may indemnify
to the fullest extent permitted by law at any time and from time to time.
To the extent not prohibited by Section 145 of the General Corporation Law
of the State of Delaware (or any other provision of the General Corporation
Law of the State of Delaware), the Indemnitees shall not be liable to the
Corporation except for their own individual willful misconduct or actions
taken in bad faith. Expenses incurred by an officer or director in
defending any action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation
in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding to
the fullest extent permitted by subsection (e) of Section 145."

Reference is also made to Section of the Underwriting Agreement filed as
Exhibit 1.1 hereto.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the provisions described under "Item 14,
Indemnification of Directors and Officers" above, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment to the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless
in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) That for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of
this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a
form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or
(4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this
registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

(2) That for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of
prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to
the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that
time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
