following persons to serve on the companys Board of Directors: Joseph J. Beal, Sterling B.

On February 9, 2011, the sole holder of the companys Class B Voting Common Stock approved the

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure
On February 9, 2011, the company held its Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The companys

review the companys financial and operating results and discussed plans and initiatives for the
future. A copy of the presentation materials is posted in the Investor Relations section of the
companys website at www.ezcorp.com.
The information set forth, or referred to, in this Item 7.01 shall not be deemed to be incorporated
