OPTION VALUE TABLE
The following table sets forth information as of December 31, 1997,
concerning the value of unexercised options held by each of the Named Executive
Officers. No Named Executive Officer exercised any stock options in 1997.
NUMBER OF SECURITIES
UNDERLYING UNEXERCISED
OPTIONS AT DECEMBER 31, 1997
NAME EXERCISABLE UNEXERCISABLE
- ---- ----------- -------------
James F. Calvano....................................................... 71,775 215,325
John M. Fowler......................................................... 59,825 179,475
Robbin L. Ayers ....................................................... 17,500 52,500
Alan H. Friedman ...................................................... 11,375 34,125
Andrea M. Kenyon ...................................................... 8,250 24,750
All Options held by the Named Executive Officers on December 31, 1997 had
an exercise price of $12.00 per share which amount exceeded the trading price of
the Common Stock of the Company ("Common Stock") at December 31, 1997 of $10.75.
As set forth immediately below, all such options have been cancelled and a
cashout payment of $4.875 per share times the number of shares of Common Stock
underlying the total of exercisable and unexercisable options held by each Named
Executive Officer was remitted to such Officers on April 16, 1998.
MATERIAL CONTRACTS AND AGREEMENTS WITH EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
STOCK OPTION PLANS. As set forth at Item 12, on April 6, 1998 the Gotham
Investors, as defined below, became the beneficial owner of more than 25% of the
Common Stock. Pursuant to the Company's 1996 Stock Option Plan and the Company's
1996 Broad Based Stock Option Plan (collectively the "Option Plans") the
acquisition by a person of 25% or more of the Common Stock constitutes a Change
in Control (as defined in the Option Plans). Upon a Change in Control, the
Company is obligated to immediately cancel all outstanding options and, within
ten days of the Change in Control, remit in cash to each option holder an amount
equal to the number of shares of Common Stock then subject to such option,
multiplied by the excess of (i) the greater of (A) the highest per share price
offered to stockholders of the Company in any transaction whereby the Change in
Control takes place or (B) the Fair Market Value (as defined under the Plans) of
a share of Common Stock on the date of occurrence of the Change in Control over
(ii) the purchase price per share of Common Stock subject to the option. The
Company made such payment under the Plans on April 16, 1998 in the approximate
amount of $5.8 million.
RETENTION PLAN. Each Named Executive Officer is subject to the Company's
Executive Retention Plan (the "Retention Plan"). The Retention Plan generally
provides for severance payments and benefit continuation following a Change in
Control of the Company (as defined in the Retention Plan) after which the
affected Named Executive Officer is either terminated without cause, leaves
after suffering a reduction in salary or benefits, or is required to relocate
(collectively, a "Termination"). Under the Retention Plan, Mr. Calvano is
entitled to receive a severance payment in an amount equal to three times his
salary and bonus for the immediately preceding twelve months upon a Termination.
Each of the other Named Executive Officers is entitled to receive a severance
payment of two times his or her respective salary and bonus for the immediately
preceding twelve months upon a Termination. In addition, certain persons which
have been selected by the Chief Executive Officer are entitled to receive a
severance payment of one times his or her respective salary and bonus for the
immediately preceding twelve months upon a Termination. Employees who collect
payments under the Retention Plan may not receive payments under the Company's
Severance Pay Plan for Senior Management. As defined in the Retention Plan, a
change in control of the Company would occur upon completion of the Offer.
The Retention Plan was amended on May 13, 1997 to provide, that in the
event that the payments described above constitute an excess parachute payment
as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the
Company will pay to the employee an additional amount (the Gross-up Payment)
equal to the excise tax and all income taxes related to such payment, such that
the net amount retained by the employee will equal the total payments.

REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE
The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for
establishing compensation policies applicable to the Company's Executive
Officers and, pursuant to such policies, determining the compensation payable to
the Company's Chief Executive Officer and, after taking into account
recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer, all other Executive Officers.
The following report relates to compensation payable to the Company's Executive
Officers, including the Named Executive Officers, for the year ended December
31, 1997:
COMPONENTS OF COMPENSATION
There are three components to compensation payable to the Company's
Executive Officers: (1) base salary; (2) annual incentive compensation in the
form of cash bonuses; and (3) equity-based incentive compensation in the form of
stock options.
COMPENSATION POLICIES
The Compensation policies of the Compensation Committee are: (i) to
establish base salaries that are competitive with those payable by national
companies with which MoneyGram competes in the recruitment of senior management;
(ii) to tie cash bonuses to achievement of pre-established targets for the
Company's profitability and to individual performance; and (iii) to use stock
options to promote equity ownership in the Company at levels deemed appropriate
considering each executive's position within the Company.
COMPENSATION PAYABLE TO EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
BASE SALARIES. Base salaries for Executive Officers are reviewed and
adjusted annually based on information regarding competitive salaries, including
salary survey data provided by third parties and information prepared by
management regarding salaries payable by the Company's competitors in similar
industries. The average increase in base salaries for all Executive Officers
corresponds to the average percentage increase in salaries payable to all
employees. Individual increases are established by the Compensation Committee,
taking into account recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer concerning
the overall effectiveness of each executive.
CASH BONUSES. Cash bonuses are determined under the Company's Incentive
Compensation Plan adopted by the Compensation Committee, which annually
establishes payout amounts based on a Company profitability target. No bonus is
payable unless the profitability target is achieved, and larger bonuses, up to a
maximum, are payable in the event the profitability target is exceeded. In
considering the amount of payout, the individual's performance is a major
factor. Payments under the Incentive Compensation Plan are made after results of
the applicable year are known. No bonuses were paid for the year 1997.
STOCK OPTIONS. Stock options are granted by the Compensation Committee to
provide equity-based long-term incentive compensation to the Company's executive
officers. Individual grants to Executive Officers are made by the Compensation
Committee, taking into account recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer.
The Compensation Committee believes that encouraging equity ownership through
stock options will enhance management incentives to improve shareholder value.
In addition, the grant of stock options, which vest over time, encourages
executives to remain with the Company and to focus on longer term results.
CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION
Compensation payable to the Company's Chief Executive Officer consists of
the same three components described above, and is determined by the Compensation
Committee following the same policies utilized for all executives. Base salary
is reviewed and adjusted annually, utilizing national salary survey data
provided by third parties and comparable industry information (generated by
management) based on the Compensation Committee's evaluation of the Chief
Executive Officer's overall effectiveness.
6
The Chief Executive Officer is entitled to a bonus under the Incentive
Compensation Plan that is tied primarily to corporate profitability.
William D. Guth, Chairman
Brian J. Fitzpatrick
COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCK AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION
There were no Compensation Committee interlocks or insider participation
during 1997.
COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS
For fiscal year 1997, all directors who were not employees of the Company
were paid an annual retainer of $12,000. Those directors who are employees of
the Company do not receive any compensation for their services as directors. The
Company reimbursed all directors for travel and other necessary business
expenses incurred in the performance of their services for the Company.

The following table sets forth as of April 6, 1998 (except with respect to
Gotham Partners, L.P. as detailed in footnote 1 below, and Weiss, Peck & Greer,
LLC, as detailed in footnote 4 below), certain information with respect to each

- ------------------
(1) According to the amended Schedule 13D dated April 7, 1998 (the "Gotham
Schedule 13D"), jointly filed by Gotham Partners, L.P. ("Gotham"), Gotham
Partners II, L.P. ("Gotham II") and Gotham International Advisors, L.L.C.
("Gotham Advisors") (collectively, the "Gotham Investors") the 5,124,300
shares of Common Stock reflected as beneficially owned by the Gotham
Investors includes 4,063,558 owned by Gotham, 27,842 owned by Gotham II
with each entity having sole voting and investment power with respect to
the shares that it owns, and 1,032,900 shares for which Gotham Advisors has
voting and investment power pursuant to an investment management agreement
with
8
Gotham Partners International, Ltd. According to the Gotham Schedule 13D,
the Gotham Investors believe that the Tender Offer amount of $17.00 per
share of Common Stock is inadequate.
(2) According to the amended Schedule 13D dated August 13, 1997, the amount
reflected as beneficially owned by Transamerica Corporation
("Transamerica") includes 989,500 shares owned directly and 2,284,900 owned
by its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including 602,000 shares owned for
the benefit of unaffiliated investment advisory clients of one of such
subsidiaries. Transamerica Corporation expressly disclaims beneficial
ownership as well as voting and investment power with respect to all shares
owned by its subsidiaries and claims that such subsidiaries are eligible to
file on Schedule 13G to report their respective ownership interests. Some
of the shares purchased by the Gotham Investors on April 6 (see footnote 1
above) may have been sold by Transamerica. However, because no amendment
has been filed by Transamerica as of the close of business on Thursday,
April 9, 1998, the Company has been unable to confirm such a sale of
shares.
(3) According to the amended Schedule 13G dated February 10, 1998 jointly filed
by Capital Group Companies, Inc. ("Capital") and its wholly owned
subsidiaries, Capital Guardian Trust Company ("Capital Trust"), SMALLCAP
World Fund, Inc. ("SMALLCAP") and Capital Research and Management Company
("Capital Management"), Capital claims sole investment power with respect
to all shares reflected as beneficially owned and sole voting power with
respect to 1,591,300 shares. Capital Trust claims sole voting and
investment power with respect to 1,591,300 shares as a result of serving as
investment manager of various of its institutional banking accounts.
SMALLCAP, which receives investment advisory advice from Capital
Management, claims sole voting power with respect to 878,600 shares,
attributing investment power over those shares to Capital Management.
(4) According to the Schedule 13D dated April 6, 1998 filed by Weiss, Peck &
Greer, L.L.C. ("Weiss Peck") (the "Weiss Peck 13D"), Weiss Peck shares
voting and investment power of these shares with its brokerage and
investment advisory clients but disclaims beneficial ownership of any of
such shares. According to the Weiss Peck 13D, Weiss Peck believes that the
Tender Offer amount of $17.00 per share of Common Stock is inadequate.
(5) According to the Schedule 13G dated December 31, 1997 filed by The Kaufmann
Fund, Inc., it is an investment company that has sole voting and
dispositive power over such shares.
(6) On April 6, 1998, as described in footnote 1 above, Gotham Investors became
the beneficial owner of more than 25% of the Shares. The acquisition by a
person or group of 25% or more of the shares constitutes a Change in
Control (as defined under the Option Plans). Upon such Change of Control,
the Company became obligated to immediately cancel all outstanding options
and, within ten days of the Change of Control, remit a cashout payment as
calculated pursuant to the Option Plans. That cashout payment occurred on
April 16, 1998. Accordingly, the above indicated individuals held options
that are subject to such Change of Control provisions. The shares
represented by such options are not included in the above Beneficial
Ownership amounts. Had a Change of Control not occurred, the respective
Beneficial Ownership amounts would have been greater by the following
amounts: 71,775 for Mr. Calvano; 17,500 for Mr. Ayers; 59,825 for Mr.
Fowler; 1,250 for Mr. Fitzpatrick; 11,375 for Mr. Friedman; 1,250 for Mr.
Guth; 8,250 for Ms. Kenyon; 1,250 for Mr. Miller; and 172,475 for all
Executive Officers and directors as a group.
(7) Less than 1%.

hired by the Company as its East Coast Regional Vice President-Sales.
