Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

(a) Previous independent registered public accounting firm for the Cash America International, Inc. sponsored 401(k) Savings Plan (the “Plan”)

(i) While PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) will continue to serve as the independent registered public accounting firm for Cash America International, Inc., on May 4, 2005, the Plan dismissed PwC as its independent registered public accounting firm. The Plan’s Administrative Committee participated in and approved the decision to change the independent registered public accounting firms.

(ii) The reports of PwC on the Plan’s financial statements for the past two fiscal years contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle.

(iii) During the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 and through May 4, 2005, there have been no disagreements with PwC on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of PwC would have caused them to make reference thereto in their reports on the financial statements for such years.

(iv) During the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 and through May 4, 2005, there have been no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

(v) The Plan has requested that PwC furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements. A copy of such letter, dated June 29, 2005, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.

(b) New independent registered public accounting firm

(i) The Administrative Committee of the Plan engaged Whitley Penn (“WP”) as its new independent registered public accounting firm as of May 16, 2005, following an assessment of the cost-effectiveness of WP's proposed audit plan. During the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, and through May 16, 2005, the Plan has not consulted with WP regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Plan’s financial statements, and neither a written report was provided to the Plan nor oral advice was provided that WP concluded was an important factor considered by the Plan in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K, or a reportable event, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
