MERCHANT PROCESSING AGREEMENT
This document, Merchant Processing Agreement (the Agreement), accompanies the document Merchant Application (Merchant
Application) and includes the Terms and Conditions set forth below (the Terms and Conditions) together with the terms and
conditions of the Merchant Application. The bank (Bank) identified in this Agreement is a member of Visa USA, Inc. (Visa) and
MasterCard International, Inc. (MasterCard), and is Deutsche Bank AG, New York branch. EVO Merchant Services, LLC d/b/a EVO
(EVO) is a registered independent sales organization of Visa and a member service provider of MasterCard. This Agreement is
between EVO, Bank, and the merchant (or you) identified in the Merchant Application (Merchant). Merchant and EVO agree that
the rights and obligations contained in this Agreement do not apply to Bank with respect to Discover transactions. To the extent
Merchant accepts Discover cards, the provisions in this Agreement with respect to Discover apply if Merchant does not have a
separate agreement with Discover. In such case, Merchant will also be enabled to accept JCB and Diners Club cards under the
Discover network and such transactions will be processed at the same fee rate as Merchants Discover transactions are processed.
Any references to the Debit Sponsor shall refer to the debit sponsors identified below.
RECITALS
Merchant desires to accept credit cards (Cards) validly issued by members of Visa, MasterCard, and Discover. Bank and EVO
desire to provide credit card processing services to Merchant. Therefore, Merchant, EVO and Bank agree as follows:
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. Honoring Cards.
A. Without Discrimination. You will honor, without discrimination, any Card properly tendered by a Cardholder.
Cardholder means a person possessing a Card and purporting to be the person in whose name the Card is issued. You will not
establish a minimum or maximum transaction amount as a condition for honoring a Card.
B. Cardholder Identification. You will identify the Cardholder and check the expiration date and signature on each Card. You will not
honor any Card if: (i) the Card has expired, (ii) the signature on the sales draft does not correspond with the signature on the Card, or
(iii) the account number embossed on the Card does not match the account number on the Cards magnetic strip (as printed in
electronic form) or the account number listed on a current Electronic Warning Bulletin file. You may not require a Cardholder to
provide personal information, such as a home or business telephone number, a home or business address, or a drivers license
number as a condition for honoring a Card unless permitted under the Laws and Rules (defined in Section 14, below).
C. Card Recovery. You will use your best efforts to retain any Card: (i) on Visa Cards if the printed four digits below the embossed
account number do not match the first four digits of the embossed account number; (ii) if you are advised by EVO or Bank (or a
designee) the issuer of the Card or the designated voice authorization center to retain it: (iii) if you have reasonable grounds to
believe the Card is counterfeit, fraudulent or stolen, or not authorized by the Cardholder; or (iv) if, for MasterCard Cards, the
embossed account number, indent printed account number and encoded account number do not match or the Card does not have a
MasterCard hologram on the lower right corner of the Card face.
D. Surcharges. You will not add any amount to the posted price of goods or services you offer as a condition of paying with a Card,
except as permitted by the Rules. This paragraph does not prohibit you from offering a discount from the standard price to induce a
person to pay by cash, check or similar means rather than by using a Card.
E. Return Policy. You will properly disclose to the Cardholder, at the time of the Card transaction and in accordance with the Rules,
any limitation you have on accepting returned merchandise.
F. No Claim Against Cardholder. You will not have any claim against or right to receive payment from a Cardholder unless EVO and
Bank refuses to accept the Sales Draft (as defined in Section 3) or revokes a prior acceptance of the Sales Draft after receipt or a
chargeback or otherwise. You will not accept any payments from a Cardholder relating to previous charges for merchandise or
services included in a Sales Draft, and if you receive any such payments you promptly will remit them to EVO and Bank.
G. Disputes With Cardholders. All disputes between you and any Cardholder relating to any Card transaction will be settled between
you and the Cardholder. Neither EVO nor Bank bear any responsibility for such transactions.
2. Authorization.
A. Required on all Transactions. You will obtain a prior authorization for the total amount of a transaction via electronic terminal or
device before completing any transaction, and you will not process any transaction that has not been authorized. You will follow any
instructions received during the authorization process. Upon receipt of authorization you may consummate only the transaction
authorized and must note on the Sales Draft the authorization number. Where authorization is obtained, you will be deemed to
warrant the true identity of the customer as the Cardholder.
B. Effect. Authorizations are not a guarantee of acceptance or payment of the Sales Draft. Authorizations do not waive any provisions
of this Agreement or otherwise validate a fraudulent transaction or a transaction involving the use of an expired Card.
C. Unreadable Magnetic Stripes. When you present Card transactions for authorization electronically, and if your terminal is unable to
read the magnetic stripe on the card, you will obtain an imprint of the card and the Cardholders signature on the imprinted draft
before presenting the Sales Draft to EVO and Bank for processing. Failure to do so may result in the assessment of a transaction
surcharge on non-qualifying transactions.
3. Presentment of Sales Drafts.
A. Forms. You will use a Sales Draft (Sales Draft) or other form approved by EVO and Bank to document each Card transaction.
Each Sales Draft will be legibly imprinted with: (i) Merchants name, location and account number; (ii) the information embossed on
the Card presented by the Cardholder (either electronically or manually); (iii) the date of the transaction; (iv) a brief description of the
goods or services involved; (v) the transaction authorization number; (vi) the total amount of the sale including any applicable taxes,
or credit transaction; and (vii) adjacent to the signature line, a notation that all sales are final, if applicable.
B. Signatures. Each Sales Draft must be signed by the Cardholder unless the Card transaction is a valid mail/telephone order Card
transaction which fully complies with the requirements set forth in this Agreement. You may not require the Cardholder to sign the
Sales Draft before you enter the final transaction amount in the Sales Draft.
C. Reproduction of Information. If the following information is not legibly imprinted on the Sales Draft, you will legibly inscribe on the
Sales Draft before submitting it to EVO and Bank: (i) the Cardholders name: (ii) account number (iii) expiration date of the Card and
(iv) the Merchants name and place of business. Additionally, for MasterCard transactions you will legibly inscribe the name of the
bank issuing the Card as it appears on the face of the Card.
D. Delivery and Retention of Sales Drafts. You will deliver a complete copy of the Sales Draft or credit voucher to the Cardholder at
the time of the transaction. You will retain the merchant copy of the Sales Draft or credit memorandum for at least 3 years following
the date of completion of the Card transaction (or such longer period as the Rules require).
E. Electronic Transmission. In using electronic authorization and/or data capture services, you will enter the data related to a sales or
credit transaction into a computer terminal or magnetic stripe reading terminal no later than the close of business on the date the
transaction is completed (unless otherwise permitted by the Rules). Failure to do so may result in the assessment of a transaction
surcharge on non-qualifying transactions and, at EVOs sole discretion, the deposit of the funds received for such sales or credit
transaction into the Reserve Account. If you provide your own electronic terminal or similar device, such terminal must meet EVO and
Banks requirements for processing transactions. Information regarding a sales or credit transaction transmitted with a computer or
magnetic stripe reading terminal will be transmitted by you to EVO and Bank or their agent in the form EVO and Bank from time to
time specify or as required under the Rules. If EVO or Bank requests a copy of a Sales Draft, credit voucher or other transaction
evidence, you will provide it within 24 hours following the request.
4. Deposit of Sales Drafts and Funds Due Merchant.
A. Deposit of Funds. i. Deposits. You agree that this Agreement is a contract of financial accommodation within the meaning of the
Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. 365 as amended from time to time. Subject to this Section, Bank will deposit to the Designated
Account (defined in section 6 below) funds evidenced by Sales Drafts (whether evidenced in writing or by electronic means)
complying with the terms of this Agreement and the Rules and will provide you provisional credit for such funds (less recoupment of
any credit(s), adjustments, fines, chargebacks, or fees). You shall not be entitled to credit for any indebtedness that arises out of a
transaction not processed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the rules and regulations of a card association or
network organization. You acknowledge that your obligation to EVO and Bank for all amounts owed under this Agreement arises out
of the same transaction as EVO and Banks obligation to deposit funds to the Designated Account. ii. Provisional Credit.
Notwithstanding the previous sentences, under no circumstance will EVO or Bank be responsible for processing credits or
adjustments related to Sales Drafts not originally processed by EVO and Bank. All Sales Drafts and deposits are subject to audit and
final checking by EVO and Bank and may be adjusted for inaccuracies. You acknowledge that all credits provided to you are
provisional and subject to chargebacks, recoupment, adjustments, fines and fees: (i) in accordance with the Rules; (ii) for any of your
obligations to EVO and Bank; and (iii) in any other situation constituting suspected fraud or a breach of this Agreement, whether or
not a transaction is charged back by the Card issuer. EVO and Bank may elect, but are not required, to grant conditional credit for
individual or groups of any funds evidenced by Sales Drafts. Final credit for those conditional funds will be granted within EVO and
Banks sole discretion. iii. Processing Limits. EVO and Bank may impose a cap on the volume and ticket amount of Sales Drafts that
they will process for you, as indicated to you by EVO or Bank. This limit may be changed by EVO or Bank upon written notice to you.
B. Chargebacks. You are fully liable for all transactions returned for whatever reason, otherwise known as chargebacks. You will
pay on demand the amount of all chargebacks. Authorization is granted to offset from incoming transactions and to debit the
Designated Account, the Reserve Account (defined in Section 7, below) or any other account held at Bank or at any other financial
institution the amount of all chargebacks. You will fully cooperate in complying with the Rules regarding chargebacks.
C. Excessive Activity. Your presentation to EVO and Bank of Excessive Activity will be a breach of this Agreement and cause for
immediate termination of this agreement. Excessive Activity means, during any monthly period: (i) the dollar amount of chargebacks
and/or retrieval requests in excess of 1% of the average monthly dollar amount of your Card transactions; (ii) sales activity that
exceeds by 10% of the dollar volume indicated on the Application; or (iii) the dollar amount of returns equals 20% of the average
monthly dollar amount of your Card transactions. You authorize, upon the occurrence of Excessive Activity, EVO and Bank to take
any action they deem necessary including but not limited to, suspension of processing privileges and establishment or increase in the
amount allocated to the Reserve Account and a reduction in the amount of provisional credit remitted to you in accordance with this
Agreement.
D. Credit. i. Credit Memoranda. You will issue a credit memorandum in any approved form, instead of making a cash advance, a
disbursement or a refund on any Card transaction. EVO or Bank will debit the Designated Account for the total face amount of each
credit memorandum submitted to EVO and Bank. You will not submit a credit memorandum relating to any Sales Draft not originally
submitted to EVO and Bank, nor will you submit a credit memorandum that exceeds the amount of the original Sales Draft. You will
within the time period specified by the Rules, provide a credit memorandum or credit statement for every return of goods or
forgiveness of debt for services which were the subject of a Card transaction. ii. Revocation of Credit. EVO or Bank may refuse to
accept any Sales Draft, and EVO and Bank may revoke prior acceptance of a Sales Draft in the following circumstances: (a) the
transaction giving rise to the Sales Draft was not made in compliance with this Agreement, the Laws or the Rules; (b) the Cardholder
disputes his liability to EVO and Bank for any reason, including but not limited to a contention that the Cardholder did not receive the
goods or services, that the goods or services provided were not as ordered, or those chargeback rights enumerated in the Rules; or
(c) the transaction giving rise to the Sales Draft was not directly between you and the Cardholder. You will pay EVO and Bank any
amount previously credited to you for a Sales Draft not accepted by EVO and Bank or where accepted, is revoked by EVO and Bank.
E. Reprocessing. Notwithstanding any authorization or request from a Cardholder, you will not re-enter or reprocess any transaction
which has been charged back.
F. Miscellaneous. You will not present for processing or credit, directly or indirectly, any transaction not originated as a result of a
Card transaction directly between you and a Cardholder or any transaction you know or should know to be fraudulent or not
authorized by the Cardholder. You will not sell or disclose to third parties Card account information other than in the course of
performing your obligations under this Agreement.
5. Other Types of Transactions.
A. Debit Card Processing Services. You may elect to accept debit cards, and said election should be made by you on the
accompanying Merchant Application. If you elect to accept debit cards, the following terms and conditions apply to you. Debit
Sponsor shall act as your sponsor with respect to the participation of point-of-sale terminals owned, controlled, and/or operated by
you (the Covered Terminals) in each of the following debit card networks (Networks): Accel, AFFN, Alaska Option, Interlink,
Maestro, NYCE, Pulse, Shazam, Star, CU24, and Tyme, which Networks may be changed from time-to-time by Debit Sponsor or
EVO without notice. You may also have access to other debit networks that do not require a sponsor. EVO will provide you with the
ability to access the Networks at the Covered Terminals for the purpose of authorizing debit card transactions from cards issued by
the members of the respective Networks, and EVO will provide connection to such Networks, terminal applications, settlement, and
reporting activities (collectively, the Services). You will comply with all federal, state, and local laws, rules, regulations and
ordinances (Applicable Laws) and with all by-laws, regulations, rules, and operating guidelines of the Networks (Network Rules).
You will execute and deliver any application, participation, or membership agreement or other document necessary to enable Debit
Sponsor to act as sponsor for you in each Network, and you shall obtain all consents, approvals, authorizations, or orders of any
governmental agency or body required for the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement. You agree to utilize the debit
card services in accordance with this Agreement, its exhibits or attachments, and EVOs instructions and specifications, and to
provide EVO with the necessary data in the proper format to enable EVO to properly furnish the Services. Copies of the relevant
agreements or operating regulations shall be made available to you upon request. You will provide prompt written notice to EVO in
the event that you are subject to any of the following: i. Conviction for a felony offense or any other crime involving moral turpitude; ii.
Restraining order, decree, injunction, or judgment in any proceeding or lawsuit alleging fraud or deceptive practice on your part; iii.
Bankruptcy filing or petition; iv. Federal or state tax lien; v. Any material adverse change in your assets, operations, or condition,
financial or otherwise; vi. The threat or filing of any litigation against you, the outcome of which reasonably could have a material
adverse effect on your continuing operations; vii. Administrative or enforcement proceeding commenced by any state or federal
regulatory agency, including any banking or securities agency or entity operating an EBT Network, that reasonably could have a
material adverse effect on your continuing operations; or viii. Any disciplinary action taken by any Network against you or any of your
principals. EVO may terminate or suspend in its discretion Debit Sponsors sponsorship of you in any Network or modify the provision
of Services to you: i. Immediately upon notice to you of the occurrence of any of the conditions set forth in items (i), (ii), (iii), (v), or
(viii) in the immediately preceding paragraph or if Debit Sponsors authority to participate in such Network or act as your sponsor in
such Network is terminated by such Network; ii. Thirty (30) days after written notice by EVO to you of the occurrence of any of the
conditions set forth in items (iv), (vi), or (vii) in the immediately preceding paragraph or if Debit Sponsor terminated its membership or
participation in such Network; iii. Immediately upon notice to you in the event any financial statement, representation, warranty,
statement or certificate furnished is materially false or misleading; or iv. Immediately upon notice to you of the occurrence of any other
circumstance with respect to this Section that may reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on EVO. The parties hereto
acknowledge and agree that EVO shall pay Debit Sponsor any and all fees related to Debit Sponsors sponsorship of you in the
Networks; provided, however, that in the event EVO fails to pay such amounts, Debit Sponsor shall be entitled to recover all such
amounts directly from you and you agree to pay all such amounts. You shall not in any way indicate that Debit Sponsor endorses
your activities, products, or services. Debit Sponsor and you are and shall remain independent contractors of one another, and
neither they, nor their respective individual employees, shall have or hold themselves out as having any power to bind the other to
any third party. Nothing contained in this section shall be construed to create or constitute a partnership, joint venture,
employer-employee, or agency relationship between Debit Sponsor and you. You shall indemnify and hold harmless EVO and its
affiliates (including parents and subsidiaries), and their respective officers, directors, employees, successors and assigns, from and
against any and all direct or contingent losses, costs, claims, demands, and causes of action (including, without limitation, the cost of
investigating the claim, the cost of litigation, and reasonable attorneys fees including those of in-house counsel, whether or not legal
proceedings are instituted) paid or incurred by or on behalf of EVO as a result of your violation of any of the terms of this Section,
Network Rules, or Applicable Laws, or otherwise arising from or related to Debit Sponsors sponsorship of you in any Network. In the
event that Debit Sponsors sponsorship of you in any Network is terminated prior to the termination of this Agreement, EVO may
assign Debit Sponsors rights and obligations hereunder to a third party. All provisions in this section necessary to enforce the rights
and obligations of the parties contained in this section shall survive the termination of Debit Sponsors debit sponsorship of you under
this Agreement.
B. Mail/Telephone Order. EVO and Bank caution against mail orders or telephone orders or any transaction in which the Cardholder
and Card are not present (mail/telephone orders) due to the high incidence of customer disputes. You will obtain the expiration date
of the Card for a mail/telephone order and submit the expiration date when obtaining authorization of the Card transaction. For
mail/telephone order transactions, you will type or print legibly on the signature line the following as applicable: telephone order or
TO or mail order or MO. You must promptly notify EVO and Bank if your retail/mail order/telephone order mix changes from the
percentages represented to EVO and Bank in the Merchant Application. EVO and Bank may cease accepting mail/telephone order
transactions, or limit their acceptance of such transactions, or increase their fees if this mix changes. Bank will release funds to
Merchant five (5) business days after the transaction date for mail/telephone orders. Merchant agrees to use and retain proof of a
traceable delivery system as means of shipment of product to the customer. Merchant agrees that transactions will not be processed
until products are shipped to the Cardholder. Merchant agrees to pay a charge of $0.05 per AVS transaction, if applicable. This
agreement may be immediately terminated by Bank if Merchant fails to comply with any of the terms of the agreement.
C. Recurring Transactions. For recurring transactions, you must obtain a written request from the Cardholder for the goods and
services to be charged to the Cardholders account, the frequency of the recurring charge, and the duration of time during which such
charges may be made. You will not complete any recurring transaction after receiving: (i) a cancellation notice from the Cardholder,
(ii) notice from EVO or Bank, or (iii) a response that the Card is not to be honored. You must print legibly on the Sales Draft the words
Recurring Transaction.
D. Multiple Sales Drafts. You will include a description and total amount of goods and services purchased in a single transaction on a
single Sales Draft or transaction record, unless (i) partial payment is entered on the Sales Draft or transaction record and the balance
of the transaction amount is paid in cash or by check at the time of transaction, or (ii) a Sales Draft represents an advance deposit in
a Card transaction completed in accordance with this Agreement and the Rules.
E. Partial Completion. i. Prior Consent. You will not accept for payment by Card any amount representing a deposit or partial payment
for goods or services to be delivered in the future without the prior written consent of EVO or Bank. Such consent will be subject to
Banks final approval. The acceptance of a Card for payment or partial payment of goods or services to be delivered in the future
without prior consent will be deemed a breach of this Agreement and cause for immediate termination, in addition to any other
remedies available under the Laws or Rules. ii. Acceptance. If you have obtained prior written consent, then you will complete such
Card transactions in accordance with the terms set forth in this Agreement, the Rules, and the Laws. Cardholders must execute one
Sales Draft when making a deposit with a Card and a second Sales Draft when paying the balance. You will note upon the Sales
Draft the words deposit or balance as appropriate. You will not deposit the Sales Draft labeled balance until the goods have
been delivered to Cardholder or you have fully performed the services.
F. Future Delivery. You will not present any Sales Draft or other memorandum to Bank for processing whether by electronic means
which relates to the sale of goods or services for future delivery without EVO or Banks, prior written authorization. Such consent will
be subject to Banks final approval. If EVO or Bank have given such consent, you represent and warrant to EVO and Bank that you
will not rely on any proceeds or credit resulting from such transactions to purchase or furnish goods or services. You will maintain
sufficient working capital to provide for the delivery of goods or services at the agreed upon future date, independent of any credit or
proceeds resulting from sales drafts or other memoranda taken in connection with future delivery transactions.
G. Electronic Commerce Transactions. You may process electronic commerce (EC) transactions only if you have so indicated on
the Application, and only if you have obtained EVOs consent. If you submit EC transactions without our consent, we may
immediately terminate this Agreement. If you have indicated on the Application that you will be submitting EC transactions, you
acknowledge that you have reviewed the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS), Visas Cardholder Information
Security Program (CISP) and MasterCards Site Data Protection Program (SDP), and to the extent that they apply to you, you agree
to comply with, and ensure such transactions comply with, the terms of each. You understand that transactions processed via EC are
high risk and subject to a higher incidence of chargebacks. You are liable for all chargebacks and losses related to EC transactions,
whether or not: i) EC transactions have been encrypted; and ii) you have obtained consent to engage in such transactions. Encryption
is not a guarantee of payment and will not waive any provision of this Agreement or otherwise validate a fraudulent transaction. All
communication costs related to EC transactions are your responsibility. You understand that EVO will not manage the EC
telecommunications link and that it is your responsibility to manage that link. All EC transactions will be settled by Bank into a
depository institution of the United States in U.S. currency. i. Requirements. For goods to be shipped on EC transactions, you may
obtain authorization up to 7 calendar days prior to the shipment date. You need not obtain a second authorization if the Sales Draft
amount is within 15% of the authorized amount, provided that the additional amount represents shipping costs. Further, your web site
must contain all of the following information: i) complete description of the goods or services offered, ii) returned merchandise and
refund policy, iii) customer service contact, including electronic mail address and/or telephone number, iv) transaction currency (such
as U.S. or Canadian dollars), v) export or legal restrictions, if known, and vi) delivery policy. If you store cardholder account numbers,
expiration dates, and other personal cardholder data in the database, you must follow PCI DSS, CISP and SDP guidelines on
securing such data. ii. If you accept EC transactions, you must: install and maintain a working network firewall to protect data
accessible via the Internet; keep security patches up-to-date; encrypt stored data and data sent over open networks; use and update
anti-virus software; restrict access to data by business need-to-know; assign a unique ID to each person with computer access to
data; not use vendor-supplied defaults for system passwords and other security parameters; track access to data by unique ID;
regularly test security systems and processes; maintain a policy that addresses information security for employees and contractors;
and restrict physical access to Cardholder information. When outsourcing administration of information assets, networks, or data you
must retain legal control of proprietary information and use limited need-to-know access to such assets, networks or data. Further,
you must reference the protection of cardholder information and compliance with the PCI DSS, CISP and SDP Rules in contracts with
other service providers. You understand that failure to comply with this Section may result in fines and you agree to indemnify
and reimburse EVO and Bank immediately for any fine imposed due to your breach of this Section.

circumstances, present for deposit directly or indirectly, a transaction which originated with any other merchant or any other source.

consent will be subject to Banks final approval. If you process any such transactions, you may be immediately terminated and EVO
or Bank may hold funds and/or increase the amount allocated to the Reserve Account and/or deduct from the amount of provisional
credit that would otherwise be allocated to you. Further, you may be subject to Visa, MasterCard or Discover reporting requirements.
6. Designated Account.
A. Establishment and Authority. Merchant will establish and maintain an account at an ACH receiving depository institution approved
by Bank and EVO (Designated Account). Merchant will maintain sufficient funds in the Designated Account to satisfy all obligations,
including fees, contemplated by this Agreement. Merchant irrevocably authorizes Bank and EVO to debit the Designated Account for
chargebacks, recoupments, adjustments, fines, fees and any other penalties or amounts owed under this Agreement, and
irrevocably authorizes Bank and EVO to debit the Designated Account for any amount owed to Bank and EVO under this Agreement
other than the amounts directly attributable to the settlement of transactions. You also authorize EVO and Bank to debit the
Merchant Account for any fees due such vendor or agent under this Agreement. This authority will remain in effect for at least 2
years after termination of this Agreement whether or not you have notified EVO and Bank of a change to the Designated Account.
Merchant must obtain prior written consent from Bank or EVO to change the Designated Account. If Merchant does not get that
consent, EVO or Bank may immediately terminate the Agreement and may take other action necessary, as determined by them
within their sole discretion.
B. Deposit. Bank will deposit all Sales Drafts to the Designated Account subject to the other provisions of this Agreement. The funds
represented by Sales Drafts will be deposited 3 business days following EVOs receipt of the Sales Draft, except for mail
order/telephone order and electronic commerce transactions, which will be deposited 5 business days following receipt of the Sales
Draft. Business Day means Monday through Friday, excluding holidays observed by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
Merchant authorizes Bank and EVO to initiate reversal or adjustment entries and initiate or suspend such entries as may be
necessary to grant Merchant provisional credit for any entry. You authorize and appoint Bank and EVO to act as your agent to collect
Card transaction amounts from the Card issuing bank. As the collecting agent, Bank and EVO in their sole discretion, may grant you
provisional credit for transaction amounts in the process of collection, subject to receipt of final payment by Bank and subject to all
chargebacks.
C. Asserted Errors. You must promptly examine all statements relating to the Designated Account, and immediately notify EVO and
Bank in writing of any errors. Your written notice must include: (i) Merchant name and account number. (ii) the dollar amount of the
asserted error, (iii) a description of the asserted error, and (iv) an explanation of why you believe an error exists and the cause of it, if
known. That written notice must be received by EVO and Bank within 30 calendar days after you received the periodic statement
containing the asserted error. Your failure to notify EVO and Bank of any error within 30 days constitutes a waiver of any claim
relating to that error. You may not make any claim against EVO or Bank for any loss or expense relating to any asserted error for 60
calendar days immediately following our receipt of your written notice. During that 60 day period, EVO and Bank will be entitled to
investigate the asserted error.
D. Indemnity. You will indemnify and hold EVO and Bank harmless for any action they take against the Designated Account, the
Reserve Account, or any other account pursuant to this Agreement.
E. ACH Authorization. You authorize EVO and Bank to initiate debit/credit entries to the Designated Account, the Reserve Account,
or any other account maintained by you at any institution, all in accordance with this Agreement and the ACH Authorization on the
attached Exhibit B, Merchant Authorizations . The ACH Authorization will remain in effect beyond termination of this Agreement. In
the event you change the Designated Account, you will execute a new ACH Authorization.
7. Security Interests, Reserve Account, Recoupment and Set-Off.
A. Security Interests. i. Security Agreement. This Agreement is a security agreement under the Uniform Commercial Code. You grant
to EVO and Bank a security interest in and lien upon: (i) all funds at any time in the Designated Account, regardless of the source of
such funds; (ii) all funds at any time in the Reserve Account, regardless of the source of such funds; (iii) present and future Sales
Drafts; and (iv) any and all amounts which may be due to you under this Agreement including, without limitation, all rights to receive
any payments or credits under this Agreement (collectively, the Secured Assets). You agree to provide other collateral or security
to EVO and Bank to secure your obligations under this Agreement upon EVO or Banks request. These security interests and liens
will secure all of your obligations under this Agreement and any other agreements now existing or later entered into between you
and EVO or Bank. This security interest may be exercised by EVO or Bank without notice or demand of any kind by making an
immediate withdrawal or freezing the secured assets. ii. Perfection. Upon request of EVO or Bank, you will execute one or more
financing statements or other documents to evidence this security interest. You represent and warrant that no other person or entity
has a security interest in the Secured Assets. Further, with respect to such security interests and liens, EVO and Bank will have all
rights afforded under the Uniform Commercial Code, any other applicable law and in equity. You will obtain from EVO and Bank
written consent prior to granting a security interest of any kind in the Secured Assets to a third party. You agree that this is a contract
of recoupment and EVO and Bank are not required to file a motion for relief from the automatic stay in any bankruptcy proceeding in
order for EVO or Bank to realize on any of its collateral (including any Reserve Account). Nevertheless you agree not to contest or
object to any motion for relief from the automatic stay filed by EVO or Bank. You authorize EVO or Bank and appoint EVO or Bank
your attorney in fact to sign your name to any financing statement used for the perfection of any security interest or lien granted
hereunder.
B. Reserve Account. i. Establishment. A non-interest bearing deposit account (Reserve Account) has been established and is
maintained at Bank or one of its affiliates with sums sufficient to satisfy your current and future merchant obligations as determined
by EVO and Bank. You authorize EVO and Bank to debit the Designated Account or any other account you have at Bank or any
other financial institution to establish or maintain funds in the Reserve Account. Bank or EVO may deposit into the Reserve Account
funds it would otherwise be obligated to pay you, for the purpose of establishing, maintaining or increasing the Reserve Account in
accordance with this Section, if it determines such action is reasonably necessary to protect its interests. ii. Authorizations. EVO and
Bank may, without notice to you, apply deposits in the Reserve Account against any outstanding amounts you owe under this
Agreement or any other agreement between you and EVO or Bank. Also, EVO and Bank may exercise their rights under this
Agreement against the Reserve Account to collect any amounts due to EVO or Bank including, without limitation, rights of set-off and
recoupment. In the event you submit a merchant application to EVO through the use of Insta-App, and EVO does not receive a
completed written merchant application within 2 business days, you authorize EVO or Bank to hold all of your funds in the Reserve
Account until the completed written merchant application and other required documentation is received by EVO. iii. Funds. Funds in
the Reserve Account will remain in the Reserve Account for 270 calendar days following the later of termination of this Agreement or
the last activity in your account, provided, however, that you will remain liable to EVO and Bank for all liabilities occurring beyond
such 270 day period. After the expiration of the 270 day period EVO will provide you with written notification via nationally recognized
delivery service advising you that the 270 day period has expired, requesting that you provide EVO with an address where the funds
you have remaining in the Reserve Account should be delivered, and stating that in the event you fail to respond to this notification
within 30 days, EVO will begin deducting a flat fee of $95 each month from the funds you have remaining in the Reserve Account. In
the event you fail to respond to the notification, the $95 fee will then be deducted each month from the funds you have remaining in
the Reserve Account. This fee will offset the administrative, clerical, legal, and risk management costs incurred by EVO to monitor
the funds you have remaining in the Reserve Account beyond the 270 day period, and includes all monthly minimums and any other
contractual fees that would ordinarily be assessed against your account pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. You agree that
prior to the expiration of the 270 days, you will not use any funds you have in the Reserve Account for any purpose, including but not
limited to paying chargebacks, fees, fines, or other amounts you owe to EVO and/or Bank under this Agreement. EVO and Bank
(and not Merchant) shall have control of the Reserve Account. iv. Assurance. In the event of a bankruptcy proceeding and the
determination by the court that this Agreement is assumable under Bankruptcy Code 365, as amended from time to time, you must
maintain funds in the Reserve Account in an amount satisfactory to EVO and Bank.
C. Recoupment and Set Off. EVO and Bank have the right of recoupment and set-off. This means that they may offset or recoup any
outstanding/uncollected amounts owed by you from: (i) any amounts they would otherwise be obligated to deposit into the
Designated Account; (ii) any other amounts Bank or EVO may owe you under this Agreement or any other agreement; and (iii) any
funds in the Designated Account or the Reserve Account. You acknowledge that in the event of a bankruptcy proceeding, in order for
you to provide adequate protection under Bankruptcy Code 362 to EVO and Bank, you must create or maintain the Reserve
Account as required by EVO and Bank, and EVO and Bank must have the right to offset against the Reserve Account for any and all
obligations which you may owe to EVO and Bank, without regard to whether the obligations relate to Sales Drafts initiated or created
before or after the filing of the bankruptcy petition.
D. Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies conferred upon EVO and Bank in this Agreement, at law or in equity, are not
intended to be exclusive of each other. Rather, each and every right of EVO and Bank under this Agreement, at law or in equity, will
be cumulative and concurrent and in addition to every other right.
8. Fees and Other Amounts Owed EVO and Bank.
A. Fees and Taxes. You will pay EVO fees for services, forms and equipment in accordance with the rates set forth on the
Application. In addition, you will pay EVO a fee for research it performs at your request in an amount equal to $200 per hour, or $5
per statement. Such fees will be calculated and debited from the Designated Account once each business day or month for the
previous business days or months activity or will be netted out from the funds due you attributable to Sales Drafts presented to EVO
and Bank. EVO and Bank reserve the right to adjust the fees set forth on the Application and in this Section, in accordance with
Section 16.H, below. If you do not have an active account at the time of the request, payment by certified check or money order must
be received prior to the release of the requested document copies or research results. You are also obligated to pay all taxes, and
other charges imposed by any governmental authority on the services provided under this Agreement. With respect to Visa,
MasterCard and Discover products, you may elect to accept credit cards or debit/prepaid cards or both. You shall so elect on the
Merchant Application being completed contemporaneously herewith. You agree to pay and your account(s) will be charged pursuant
to Section 6.A of this Agreement for any additional fees incurred as a result of your subsequent acceptance of transactions with any
Visa, MasterCard or Discover product that you have elected not to accept.
B. Other Amounts Owed EVO and Bank. You will immediately pay EVO and Bank any amount incurred by EVO and Bank
attributable to this Agreement including but not limited to chargebacks, fines and penalties imposed by Visa, MasterCard or Discover
(including but not limited to fines and penalties related to PCI DSS), non-sufficient fund fees, and ACH debits that overdraw the
Designated Account or Reserve Account, or are otherwise dishonored. You authorize EVO and Bank to debit via ACH the
Designated Account or any other account you have at Bank or at any other financial institution for any amount you owe EVO or Bank
under this Agreement or under any other contract, note, guaranty, instrument or dealing of any kind now existing or later entered into
between you and EVO or Bank, whether your obligation is direct, indirect, primary, secondary, fixed, contingent, joint or several. In
the event EVO or Bank demand sums due or such ACH does not fully reimburse EVO and Bank for the amount owed, you will
immediately pay EVO and Bank such amount.
C. Merchant Supply/Replacement Program. Merchant is responsible for purchasing all supplies required to properly process credit
card transactions (sales slips, printer rolls, etc.). If Merchant elects to participate in EVOs Supply/Replacement Program, Merchant
understands that it is entitled to a maximum of 6 rolls of paper and 2 printer ribbons per month. It is Merchants responsibility to
contact EVO each month to order supplies. EVO will only provide Merchant with supplies for the current month, and Merchants
failure to place an order with EVO will constitute a waiver of its right to receive supplies for that month under the
Supply/Replacement Program. Quantity of supplies provided is at the discretion of EVO. Enrollment in EVOs Supply/Replacement
Program also entitles Merchant to free refurbished replacement equipment after EVO has collected 3 monthly payments from
Merchant (merchant is responsible for all shipping costs). A separate program is required for each terminal Merchant may have. If
Merchants terminal type is unavailable, at EVOs discretion, a substitute may be provided. EVOs Supply/Replacement Program
does not include labor, parts, or expenses necessary to replace or repair equipment damaged by fire, flood, accident, improper
voltages, misuse of equipment, service performed by persons other than EVO representatives, and/or failure to continually maintain
a suitable operating environment for the equipment. EVO may choose to cancel Merchants Supply/Replacement Program at any
time without notice. This program is nontransferable without written consent. Maintenance is not available for any wireless terminals.

EVOs efforts to comply with the PCI DSS and does not ensure your compliance with the PCI DSS or any law, rule or regulation
related to cardholder data security. The payment of such fee shall not relieve you of your responsibility to comply with all rules and
regulations related to cardholder data security, including without limitation the PCI DSS. Without limiting the generality of the

RECITALS
Merchant desires to accept credit cards (Cards) validly issued by members of Visa, MasterCard, and Discover. Bank and EVO
desire to provide credit card processing services to Merchant. Therefore, Merchant, EVO and Bank agree as follows:
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. Honoring Cards.
A. Without Discrimination. You will honor, without discrimination, any Card properly tendered by a Cardholder.
Cardholder means a person possessing a Card and purporting to be the person in whose name the Card is issued. You will not
establish a minimum or maximum transaction amount as a condition for honoring a Card.
B. Cardholder Identification. You will identify the Cardholder and check the expiration date and signature on each Card. You will not
honor any Card if: (i) the Card has expired, (ii) the signature on the sales draft does not correspond with the signature on the Card, or
(iii) the account number embossed on the Card does not match the account number on the Cards magnetic strip (as printed in
electronic form) or the account number listed on a current Electronic Warning Bulletin file. You may not require a Cardholder to
provide personal information, such as a home or business telephone number, a home or business address, or a drivers license
number as a condition for honoring a Card unless permitted under the Laws and Rules (defined in Section 14, below).
C. Card Recovery. You will use your best efforts to retain any Card: (i) on Visa Cards if the printed four digits below the embossed
account number do not match the first four digits of the embossed account number; (ii) if you are advised by EVO or Bank (or a
designee) the issuer of the Card or the designated voice authorization center to retain it: (iii) if you have reasonable grounds to
believe the Card is counterfeit, fraudulent or stolen, or not authorized by the Cardholder; or (iv) if, for MasterCard Cards, the
embossed account number, indent printed account number and encoded account number do not match or the Card does not have a
MasterCard hologram on the lower right corner of the Card face.
D. Surcharges. You will not add any amount to the posted price of goods or services you offer as a condition of paying with a Card,
except as permitted by the Rules. This paragraph does not prohibit you from offering a discount from the standard price to induce a
person to pay by cash, check or similar means rather than by using a Card.
E. Return Policy. You will properly disclose to the Cardholder, at the time of the Card transaction and in accordance with the Rules,
any limitation you have on accepting returned merchandise.
F. No Claim Against Cardholder. You will not have any claim against or right to receive payment from a Cardholder unless EVO and
Bank refuses to accept the Sales Draft (as defined in Section 3) or revokes a prior acceptance of the Sales Draft after receipt or a
chargeback or otherwise. You will not accept any payments from a Cardholder relating to previous charges for merchandise or
services included in a Sales Draft, and if you receive any such payments you promptly will remit them to EVO and Bank.
G. Disputes With Cardholders. All disputes between you and any Cardholder relating to any Card transaction will be settled between
you and the Cardholder. Neither EVO nor Bank bear any responsibility for such transactions.
2. Authorization.
A. Required on all Transactions. You will obtain a prior authorization for the total amount of a transaction via electronic terminal or
device before completing any transaction, and you will not process any transaction that has not been authorized. You will follow any
instructions received during the authorization process. Upon receipt of authorization you may consummate only the transaction
authorized and must note on the Sales Draft the authorization number. Where authorization is obtained, you will be deemed to
warrant the true identity of the customer as the Cardholder.
B. Effect. Authorizations are not a guarantee of acceptance or payment of the Sales Draft. Authorizations do not waive any provisions
of this Agreement or otherwise validate a fraudulent transaction or a transaction involving the use of an expired Card.
C. Unreadable Magnetic Stripes. When you present Card transactions for authorization electronically, and if your terminal is unable to
read the magnetic stripe on the card, you will obtain an imprint of the card and the Cardholders signature on the imprinted draft
before presenting the Sales Draft to EVO and Bank for processing. Failure to do so may result in the assessment of a transaction
surcharge on non-qualifying transactions.
3. Presentment of Sales Drafts.
A. Forms. You will use a Sales Draft (Sales Draft) or other form approved by EVO and Bank to document each Card transaction.
Each Sales Draft will be legibly imprinted with: (i) Merchants name, location and account number; (ii) the information embossed on
the Card presented by the Cardholder (either electronically or manually); (iii) the date of the transaction; (iv) a brief description of the
goods or services involved; (v) the transaction authorization number; (vi) the total amount of the sale including any applicable taxes,
or credit transaction; and (vii) adjacent to the signature line, a notation that all sales are final, if applicable.
B. Signatures. Each Sales Draft must be signed by the Cardholder unless the Card transaction is a valid mail/telephone order Card
transaction which fully complies with the requirements set forth in this Agreement. You may not require the Cardholder to sign the
Sales Draft before you enter the final transaction amount in the Sales Draft.
C. Reproduction of Information. If the following information is not legibly imprinted on the Sales Draft, you will legibly inscribe on the
Sales Draft before submitting it to EVO and Bank: (i) the Cardholders name: (ii) account number (iii) expiration date of the Card and
(iv) the Merchants name and place of business. Additionally, for MasterCard transactions you will legibly inscribe the name of the
bank issuing the Card as it appears on the face of the Card.
D. Delivery and Retention of Sales Drafts. You will deliver a complete copy of the Sales Draft or credit voucher to the Cardholder at
the time of the transaction. You will retain the merchant copy of the Sales Draft or credit memorandum for at least 3 years following
the date of completion of the Card transaction (or such longer period as the Rules require).
E. Electronic Transmission. In using electronic authorization and/or data capture services, you will enter the data related to a sales or
credit transaction into a computer terminal or magnetic stripe reading terminal no later than the close of business on the date the
transaction is completed (unless otherwise permitted by the Rules). Failure to do so may result in the assessment of a transaction
surcharge on non-qualifying transactions and, at EVOs sole discretion, the deposit of the funds received for such sales or credit
transaction into the Reserve Account. If you provide your own electronic terminal or similar device, such terminal must meet EVO and
Banks requirements for processing transactions. Information regarding a sales or credit transaction transmitted with a computer or
magnetic stripe reading terminal will be transmitted by you to EVO and Bank or their agent in the form EVO and Bank from time to
time specify or as required under the Rules. If EVO or Bank requests a copy of a Sales Draft, credit voucher or other transaction
evidence, you will provide it within 24 hours following the request.
4. Deposit of Sales Drafts and Funds Due Merchant.
A. Deposit of Funds. i. Deposits. You agree that this Agreement is a contract of financial accommodation within the meaning of the
Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. 365 as amended from time to time. Subject to this Section, Bank will deposit to the Designated
Account (defined in section 6 below) funds evidenced by Sales Drafts (whether evidenced in writing or by electronic means)
complying with the terms of this Agreement and the Rules and will provide you provisional credit for such funds (less recoupment of
any credit(s), adjustments, fines, chargebacks, or fees). You shall not be entitled to credit for any indebtedness that arises out of a
transaction not processed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the rules and regulations of a card association or
network organization. You acknowledge that your obligation to EVO and Bank for all amounts owed under this Agreement arises out
of the same transaction as EVO and Banks obligation to deposit funds to the Designated Account. ii. Provisional Credit.
Notwithstanding the previous sentences, under no circumstance will EVO or Bank be responsible for processing credits or
adjustments related to Sales Drafts not originally processed by EVO and Bank. All Sales Drafts and deposits are subject to audit and
final checking by EVO and Bank and may be adjusted for inaccuracies. You acknowledge that all credits provided to you are
provisional and subject to chargebacks, recoupment, adjustments, fines and fees: (i) in accordance with the Rules; (ii) for any of your
obligations to EVO and Bank; and (iii) in any other situation constituting suspected fraud or a breach of this Agreement, whether or
not a transaction is charged back by the Card issuer. EVO and Bank may elect, but are not required, to grant conditional credit for
individual or groups of any funds evidenced by Sales Drafts. Final credit for those conditional funds will be granted within EVO and
Banks sole discretion. iii. Processing Limits. EVO and Bank may impose a cap on the volume and ticket amount of Sales Drafts that
they will process for you, as indicated to you by EVO or Bank. This limit may be changed by EVO or Bank upon written notice to you.
B. Chargebacks. You are fully liable for all transactions returned for whatever reason, otherwise known as chargebacks. You will
pay on demand the amount of all chargebacks. Authorization is granted to offset from incoming transactions and to debit the
Designated Account, the Reserve Account (defined in Section 7, below) or any other account held at Bank or at any other financial
institution the amount of all chargebacks. You will fully cooperate in complying with the Rules regarding chargebacks.
C. Excessive Activity. Your presentation to EVO and Bank of Excessive Activity will be a breach of this Agreement and cause for
immediate termination of this agreement. Excessive Activity means, during any monthly period: (i) the dollar amount of chargebacks
and/or retrieval requests in excess of 1% of the average monthly dollar amount of your Card transactions; (ii) sales activity that
exceeds by 10% of the dollar volume indicated on the Application; or (iii) the dollar amount of returns equals 20% of the average
monthly dollar amount of your Card transactions. You authorize, upon the occurrence of Excessive Activity, EVO and Bank to take
any action they deem necessary including but not limited to, suspension of processing privileges and establishment or increase in the
amount allocated to the Reserve Account and a reduction in the amount of provisional credit remitted to you in accordance with this
Agreement.
D. Credit. i. Credit Memoranda. You will issue a credit memorandum in any approved form, instead of making a cash advance, a
disbursement or a refund on any Card transaction. EVO or Bank will debit the Designated Account for the total face amount of each
credit memorandum submitted to EVO and Bank. You will not submit a credit memorandum relating to any Sales Draft not originally
submitted to EVO and Bank, nor will you submit a credit memorandum that exceeds the amount of the original Sales Draft. You will
within the time period specified by the Rules, provide a credit memorandum or credit statement for every return of goods or
forgiveness of debt for services which were the subject of a Card transaction. ii. Revocation of Credit. EVO or Bank may refuse to
accept any Sales Draft, and EVO and Bank may revoke prior acceptance of a Sales Draft in the following circumstances: (a) the
transaction giving rise to the Sales Draft was not made in compliance with this Agreement, the Laws or the Rules; (b) the Cardholder
disputes his liability to EVO and Bank for any reason, including but not limited to a contention that the Cardholder did not receive the
goods or services, that the goods or services provided were not as ordered, or those chargeback rights enumerated in the Rules; or
(c) the transaction giving rise to the Sales Draft was not directly between you and the Cardholder. You will pay EVO and Bank any
amount previously credited to you for a Sales Draft not accepted by EVO and Bank or where accepted, is revoked by EVO and Bank.
E. Reprocessing. Notwithstanding any authorization or request from a Cardholder, you will not re-enter or reprocess any transaction
which has been charged back.
F. Miscellaneous. You will not present for processing or credit, directly or indirectly, any transaction not originated as a result of a
Card transaction directly between you and a Cardholder or any transaction you know or should know to be fraudulent or not
authorized by the Cardholder. You will not sell or disclose to third parties Card account information other than in the course of
performing your obligations under this Agreement.
5. Other Types of Transactions.
A. Debit Card Processing Services. You may elect to accept debit cards, and said election should be made by you on the
accompanying Merchant Application. If you elect to accept debit cards, the following terms and conditions apply to you. Debit
Sponsor shall act as your sponsor with respect to the participation of point-of-sale terminals owned, controlled, and/or operated by
you (the Covered Terminals) in each of the following debit card networks (Networks): Accel, AFFN, Alaska Option, Interlink,
Maestro, NYCE, Pulse, Shazam, Star, CU24, and Tyme, which Networks may be changed from time-to-time by Debit Sponsor or
EVO without notice. You may also have access to other debit networks that do not require a sponsor. EVO will provide you with the
ability to access the Networks at the Covered Terminals for the purpose of authorizing debit card transactions from cards issued by
the members of the respective Networks, and EVO will provide connection to such Networks, terminal applications, settlement, and
reporting activities (collectively, the Services). You will comply with all federal, state, and local laws, rules, regulations and
ordinances (Applicable Laws) and with all by-laws, regulations, rules, and operating guidelines of the Networks (Network Rules).
You will execute and deliver any application, participation, or membership agreement or other document necessary to enable Debit
Sponsor to act as sponsor for you in each Network, and you shall obtain all consents, approvals, authorizations, or orders of any
governmental agency or body required for the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement. You agree to utilize the debit
card services in accordance with this Agreement, its exhibits or attachments, and EVOs instructions and specifications, and to
provide EVO with the necessary data in the proper format to enable EVO to properly furnish the Services. Copies of the relevant
agreements or operating regulations shall be made available to you upon request. You will provide prompt written notice to EVO in
the event that you are subject to any of the following: i. Conviction for a felony offense or any other crime involving moral turpitude; ii.
Restraining order, decree, injunction, or judgment in any proceeding or lawsuit alleging fraud or deceptive practice on your part; iii.
Bankruptcy filing or petition; iv. Federal or state tax lien; v. Any material adverse change in your assets, operations, or condition,
financial or otherwise; vi. The threat or filing of any litigation against you, the outcome of which reasonably could have a material
adverse effect on your continuing operations; vii. Administrative or enforcement proceeding commenced by any state or federal
regulatory agency, including any banking or securities agency or entity operating an EBT Network, that reasonably could have a
material adverse effect on your continuing operations; or viii. Any disciplinary action taken by any Network against you or any of your
principals. EVO may terminate or suspend in its discretion Debit Sponsors sponsorship of you in any Network or modify the provision
of Services to you: i. Immediately upon notice to you of the occurrence of any of the conditions set forth in items (i), (ii), (iii), (v), or
(viii) in the immediately preceding paragraph or if Debit Sponsors authority to participate in such Network or act as your sponsor in
such Network is terminated by such Network; ii. Thirty (30) days after written notice by EVO to you of the occurrence of any of the
conditions set forth in items (iv), (vi), or (vii) in the immediately preceding paragraph or if Debit Sponsor terminated its membership or
participation in such Network; iii. Immediately upon notice to you in the event any financial statement, representation, warranty,
statement or certificate furnished is materially false or misleading; or iv. Immediately upon notice to you of the occurrence of any other
circumstance with respect to this Section that may reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on EVO. The parties hereto
acknowledge and agree that EVO shall pay Debit Sponsor any and all fees related to Debit Sponsors sponsorship of you in the
Networks; provided, however, that in the event EVO fails to pay such amounts, Debit Sponsor shall be entitled to recover all such
amounts directly from you and you agree to pay all such amounts. You shall not in any way indicate that Debit Sponsor endorses
your activities, products, or services. Debit Sponsor and you are and shall remain independent contractors of one another, and
neither they, nor their respective individual employees, shall have or hold themselves out as having any power to bind the other to
any third party. Nothing contained in this section shall be construed to create or constitute a partnership, joint venture,
employer-employee, or agency relationship between Debit Sponsor and you. You shall indemnify and hold harmless EVO and its
affiliates (including parents and subsidiaries), and their respective officers, directors, employees, successors and assigns, from and
against any and all direct or contingent losses, costs, claims, demands, and causes of action (including, without limitation, the cost of
investigating the claim, the cost of litigation, and reasonable attorneys fees including those of in-house counsel, whether or not legal
proceedings are instituted) paid or incurred by or on behalf of EVO as a result of your violation of any of the terms of this Section,
Network Rules, or Applicable Laws, or otherwise arising from or related to Debit Sponsors sponsorship of you in any Network. In the
event that Debit Sponsors sponsorship of you in any Network is terminated prior to the termination of this Agreement, EVO may
assign Debit Sponsors rights and obligations hereunder to a third party. All provisions in this section necessary to enforce the rights
and obligations of the parties contained in this section shall survive the termination of Debit Sponsors debit sponsorship of you under
this Agreement.
B. Mail/Telephone Order. EVO and Bank caution against mail orders or telephone orders or any transaction in which the Cardholder
and Card are not present (mail/telephone orders) due to the high incidence of customer disputes. You will obtain the expiration date
of the Card for a mail/telephone order and submit the expiration date when obtaining authorization of the Card transaction. For
mail/telephone order transactions, you will type or print legibly on the signature line the following as applicable: telephone order or
TO or mail order or MO. You must promptly notify EVO and Bank if your retail/mail order/telephone order mix changes from the
percentages represented to EVO and Bank in the Merchant Application. EVO and Bank may cease accepting mail/telephone order
transactions, or limit their acceptance of such transactions, or increase their fees if this mix changes. Bank will release funds to
Merchant five (5) business days after the transaction date for mail/telephone orders. Merchant agrees to use and retain proof of a
traceable delivery system as means of shipment of product to the customer. Merchant agrees that transactions will not be processed
until products are shipped to the Cardholder. Merchant agrees to pay a charge of $0.05 per AVS transaction, if applicable. This
agreement may be immediately terminated by Bank if Merchant fails to comply with any of the terms of the agreement.
C. Recurring Transactions. For recurring transactions, you must obtain a written request from the Cardholder for the goods and
services to be charged to the Cardholders account, the frequency of the recurring charge, and the duration of time during which such
charges may be made. You will not complete any recurring transaction after receiving: (i) a cancellation notice from the Cardholder,
(ii) notice from EVO or Bank, or (iii) a response that the Card is not to be honored. You must print legibly on the Sales Draft the words
Recurring Transaction.
D. Multiple Sales Drafts. You will include a description and total amount of goods and services purchased in a single transaction on a
single Sales Draft or transaction record, unless (i) partial payment is entered on the Sales Draft or transaction record and the balance
of the transaction amount is paid in cash or by check at the time of transaction, or (ii) a Sales Draft represents an advance deposit in
a Card transaction completed in accordance with this Agreement and the Rules.
E. Partial Completion. i. Prior Consent. You will not accept for payment by Card any amount representing a deposit or partial payment
for goods or services to be delivered in the future without the prior written consent of EVO or Bank. Such consent will be subject to
Banks final approval. The acceptance of a Card for payment or partial payment of goods or services to be delivered in the future
without prior consent will be deemed a breach of this Agreement and cause for immediate termination, in addition to any other
remedies available under the Laws or Rules. ii. Acceptance. If you have obtained prior written consent, then you will complete such
Card transactions in accordance with the terms set forth in this Agreement, the Rules, and the Laws. Cardholders must execute one
Sales Draft when making a deposit with a Card and a second Sales Draft when paying the balance. You will note upon the Sales
Draft the words deposit or balance as appropriate. You will not deposit the Sales Draft labeled balance until the goods have
been delivered to Cardholder or you have fully performed the services.
F. Future Delivery. You will not present any Sales Draft or other memorandum to Bank for processing whether by electronic means
which relates to the sale of goods or services for future delivery without EVO or Banks, prior written authorization. Such consent will
be subject to Banks final approval. If EVO or Bank have given such consent, you represent and warrant to EVO and Bank that you
will not rely on any proceeds or credit resulting from such transactions to purchase or furnish goods or services. You will maintain
sufficient working capital to provide for the delivery of goods or services at the agreed upon future date, independent of any credit or
proceeds resulting from sales drafts or other memoranda taken in connection with future delivery transactions.
G. Electronic Commerce Transactions. You may process electronic commerce (EC) transactions only if you have so indicated on
the Application, and only if you have obtained EVOs consent. If you submit EC transactions without our consent, we may
immediately terminate this Agreement. If you have indicated on the Application that you will be submitting EC transactions, you
acknowledge that you have reviewed the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS), Visas Cardholder Information
Security Program (CISP) and MasterCards Site Data Protection Program (SDP), and to the extent that they apply to you, you agree
to comply with, and ensure such transactions comply with, the terms of each. You understand that transactions processed via EC are
high risk and subject to a higher incidence of chargebacks. You are liable for all chargebacks and losses related to EC transactions,
whether or not: i) EC transactions have been encrypted; and ii) you have obtained consent to engage in such transactions. Encryption
is not a guarantee of payment and will not waive any provision of this Agreement or otherwise validate a fraudulent transaction. All
communication costs related to EC transactions are your responsibility. You understand that EVO will not manage the EC
telecommunications link and that it is your responsibility to manage that link. All EC transactions will be settled by Bank into a
depository institution of the United States in U.S. currency. i. Requirements. For goods to be shipped on EC transactions, you may
obtain authorization up to 7 calendar days prior to the shipment date. You need not obtain a second authorization if the Sales Draft
amount is within 15% of the authorized amount, provided that the additional amount represents shipping costs. Further, your web site
must contain all of the following information: i) complete description of the goods or services offered, ii) returned merchandise and
refund policy, iii) customer service contact, including electronic mail address and/or telephone number, iv) transaction currency (such
as U.S. or Canadian dollars), v) export or legal restrictions, if known, and vi) delivery policy. If you store cardholder account numbers,
expiration dates, and other personal cardholder data in the database, you must follow PCI DSS, CISP and SDP guidelines on
securing such data. ii. If you accept EC transactions, you must: install and maintain a working network firewall to protect data
accessible via the Internet; keep security patches up-to-date; encrypt stored data and data sent over open networks; use and update

irrevocably authorizes Bank and EVO to debit the Designated Account for any amount owed to Bank and EVO under this Agreement
other than the amounts directly attributable to the settlement of transactions. You also authorize EVO and Bank to debit the
Merchant Account for any fees due such vendor or agent under this Agreement. This authority will remain in effect for at least 2
years after termination of this Agreement whether or not you have notified EVO and Bank of a change to the Designated Account.
Merchant must obtain prior written consent from Bank or EVO to change the Designated Account. If Merchant does not get that
consent, EVO or Bank may immediately terminate the Agreement and may take other action necessary, as determined by them

known. That written notice must be received by EVO and Bank within 30 calendar days after you received the periodic statement
containing the asserted error. Your failure to notify EVO and Bank of any error within 30 days constitutes a waiver of any claim
relating to that error. You may not make any claim against EVO or Bank for any loss or expense relating to any asserted error for 60
calendar days immediately following our receipt of your written notice. During that 60 day period, EVO and Bank will be entitled to
investigate the asserted error.

the event you change the Designated Account, you will execute a new ACH Authorization.
7. Security Interests, Reserve Account, Recoupment and Set-Off.
A. Security Interests. i. Security Agreement. This Agreement is a security agreement under the Uniform Commercial Code. You grant
to EVO and Bank a security interest in and lien upon: (i) all funds at any time in the Designated Account, regardless of the source of
such funds; (ii) all funds at any time in the Reserve Account, regardless of the source of such funds; (iii) present and future Sales
Drafts; and (iv) any and all amounts which may be due to you under this Agreement including, without limitation, all rights to receive
any payments or credits under this Agreement (collectively, the Secured Assets). You agree to provide other collateral or security
to EVO and Bank to secure your obligations under this Agreement upon EVO or Banks request. These security interests and liens
will secure all of your obligations under this Agreement and any other agreements now existing or later entered into between you
and EVO or Bank. This security interest may be exercised by EVO or Bank without notice or demand of any kind by making an
immediate withdrawal or freezing the secured assets. ii. Perfection. Upon request of EVO or Bank, you will execute one or more
financing statements or other documents to evidence this security interest. You represent and warrant that no other person or entity
has a security interest in the Secured Assets. Further, with respect to such security interests and liens, EVO and Bank will have all
rights afforded under the Uniform Commercial Code, any other applicable law and in equity. You will obtain from EVO and Bank
written consent prior to granting a security interest of any kind in the Secured Assets to a third party. You agree that this is a contract
of recoupment and EVO and Bank are not required to file a motion for relief from the automatic stay in any bankruptcy proceeding in
order for EVO or Bank to realize on any of its collateral (including any Reserve Account). Nevertheless you agree not to contest or
object to any motion for relief from the automatic stay filed by EVO or Bank. You authorize EVO or Bank and appoint EVO or Bank
your attorney in fact to sign your name to any financing statement used for the perfection of any security interest or lien granted
hereunder.
B. Reserve Account. i. Establishment. A non-interest bearing deposit account (Reserve Account) has been established and is
maintained at Bank or one of its affiliates with sums sufficient to satisfy your current and future merchant obligations as determined
by EVO and Bank. You authorize EVO and Bank to debit the Designated Account or any other account you have at Bank or any
other financial institution to establish or maintain funds in the Reserve Account. Bank or EVO may deposit into the Reserve Account
funds it would otherwise be obligated to pay you, for the purpose of establishing, maintaining or increasing the Reserve Account in
accordance with this Section, if it determines such action is reasonably necessary to protect its interests. ii. Authorizations. EVO and
Bank may, without notice to you, apply deposits in the Reserve Account against any outstanding amounts you owe under this
Agreement or any other agreement between you and EVO or Bank. Also, EVO and Bank may exercise their rights under this
Agreement against the Reserve Account to collect any amounts due to EVO or Bank including, without limitation, rights of set-off and
recoupment. In the event you submit a merchant application to EVO through the use of Insta-App, and EVO does not receive a
completed written merchant application within 2 business days, you authorize EVO or Bank to hold all of your funds in the Reserve
Account until the completed written merchant application and other required documentation is received by EVO. iii. Funds. Funds in
the Reserve Account will remain in the Reserve Account for 270 calendar days following the later of termination of this Agreement or
the last activity in your account, provided, however, that you will remain liable to EVO and Bank for all liabilities occurring beyond
such 270 day period. After the expiration of the 270 day period EVO will provide you with written notification via nationally recognized
delivery service advising you that the 270 day period has expired, requesting that you provide EVO with an address where the funds
you have remaining in the Reserve Account should be delivered, and stating that in the event you fail to respond to this notification
within 30 days, EVO will begin deducting a flat fee of $95 each month from the funds you have remaining in the Reserve Account. In
the event you fail to respond to the notification, the $95 fee will then be deducted each month from the funds you have remaining in
the Reserve Account. This fee will offset the administrative, clerical, legal, and risk management costs incurred by EVO to monitor
the funds you have remaining in the Reserve Account beyond the 270 day period, and includes all monthly minimums and any other
contractual fees that would ordinarily be assessed against your account pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. You agree that
prior to the expiration of the 270 days, you will not use any funds you have in the Reserve Account for any purpose, including but not
limited to paying chargebacks, fees, fines, or other amounts you owe to EVO and/or Bank under this Agreement. EVO and Bank
(and not Merchant) shall have control of the Reserve Account. iv. Assurance. In the event of a bankruptcy proceeding and the
determination by the court that this Agreement is assumable under Bankruptcy Code 365, as amended from time to time, you must
maintain funds in the Reserve Account in an amount satisfactory to EVO and Bank.
C. Recoupment and Set Off. EVO and Bank have the right of recoupment and set-off. This means that they may offset or recoup any
outstanding/uncollected amounts owed by you from: (i) any amounts they would otherwise be obligated to deposit into the
Designated Account; (ii) any other amounts Bank or EVO may owe you under this Agreement or any other agreement; and (iii) any
funds in the Designated Account or the Reserve Account. You acknowledge that in the event of a bankruptcy proceeding, in order for
you to provide adequate protection under Bankruptcy Code 362 to EVO and Bank, you must create or maintain the Reserve
Account as required by EVO and Bank, and EVO and Bank must have the right to offset against the Reserve Account for any and all
obligations which you may owe to EVO and Bank, without regard to whether the obligations relate to Sales Drafts initiated or created
before or after the filing of the bankruptcy petition.
D. Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies conferred upon EVO and Bank in this Agreement, at law or in equity, are not
intended to be exclusive of each other. Rather, each and every right of EVO and Bank under this Agreement, at law or in equity, will
be cumulative and concurrent and in addition to every other right.
8. Fees and Other Amounts Owed EVO and Bank.
A. Fees and Taxes. You will pay EVO fees for services, forms and equipment in accordance with the rates set forth on the
Application. In addition, you will pay EVO a fee for research it performs at your request in an amount equal to $200 per hour, or $5
per statement. Such fees will be calculated and debited from the Designated Account once each business day or month for the
previous business days or months activity or will be netted out from the funds due you attributable to Sales Drafts presented to EVO
and Bank. EVO and Bank reserve the right to adjust the fees set forth on the Application and in this Section, in accordance with
Section 16.H, below. If you do not have an active account at the time of the request, payment by certified check or money order must
be received prior to the release of the requested document copies or research results. You are also obligated to pay all taxes, and
other charges imposed by any governmental authority on the services provided under this Agreement. With respect to Visa,
MasterCard and Discover products, you may elect to accept credit cards or debit/prepaid cards or both. You shall so elect on the
Merchant Application being completed contemporaneously herewith. You agree to pay and your account(s) will be charged pursuant
to Section 6.A of this Agreement for any additional fees incurred as a result of your subsequent acceptance of transactions with any
Visa, MasterCard or Discover product that you have elected not to accept.
B. Other Amounts Owed EVO and Bank. You will immediately pay EVO and Bank any amount incurred by EVO and Bank
attributable to this Agreement including but not limited to chargebacks, fines and penalties imposed by Visa, MasterCard or Discover
(including but not limited to fines and penalties related to PCI DSS), non-sufficient fund fees, and ACH debits that overdraw the
Designated Account or Reserve Account, or are otherwise dishonored. You authorize EVO and Bank to debit via ACH the
Designated Account or any other account you have at Bank or at any other financial institution for any amount you owe EVO or Bank
under this Agreement or under any other contract, note, guaranty, instrument or dealing of any kind now existing or later entered into
between you and EVO or Bank, whether your obligation is direct, indirect, primary, secondary, fixed, contingent, joint or several. In
the event EVO or Bank demand sums due or such ACH does not fully reimburse EVO and Bank for the amount owed, you will
immediately pay EVO and Bank such amount.
C. Merchant Supply/Replacement Program. Merchant is responsible for purchasing all supplies required to properly process credit
card transactions (sales slips, printer rolls, etc.). If Merchant elects to participate in EVOs Supply/Replacement Program, Merchant
understands that it is entitled to a maximum of 6 rolls of paper and 2 printer ribbons per month. It is Merchants responsibility to
contact EVO each month to order supplies. EVO will only provide Merchant with supplies for the current month, and Merchants
failure to place an order with EVO will constitute a waiver of its right to receive supplies for that month under the
Supply/Replacement Program. Quantity of supplies provided is at the discretion of EVO. Enrollment in EVOs Supply/Replacement
Program also entitles Merchant to free refurbished replacement equipment after EVO has collected 3 monthly payments from
Merchant (merchant is responsible for all shipping costs). A separate program is required for each terminal Merchant may have. If
Merchants terminal type is unavailable, at EVOs discretion, a substitute may be provided. EVOs Supply/Replacement Program
does not include labor, parts, or expenses necessary to replace or repair equipment damaged by fire, flood, accident, improper
voltages, misuse of equipment, service performed by persons other than EVO representatives, and/or failure to continually maintain
a suitable operating environment for the equipment. EVO may choose to cancel Merchants Supply/Replacement Program at any
time without notice. This program is nontransferable without written consent. Maintenance is not available for any wireless terminals.

merits in any such action. You waive trial by jury with respect to any litigation arising out of, relating to, or in connection with this

estoppel of such right, nor shall it amend this Agreement. All waivers must be signed by the waiving party.
J. Independent Contractors. EVO, Bank and Merchant will be deemed independent contractors and will not be considered agent,

RECITALS
Merchant desires to accept credit cards (Cards) validly issued by members of Visa, MasterCard, and Discover. Bank and EVO
desire to provide credit card processing services to Merchant. Therefore, Merchant, EVO and Bank agree as follows:
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. Honoring Cards.
A. Without Discrimination. You will honor, without discrimination, any Card properly tendered by a Cardholder.
Cardholder means a person possessing a Card and purporting to be the person in whose name the Card is issued. You will not
establish a minimum or maximum transaction amount as a condition for honoring a Card.
B. Cardholder Identification. You will identify the Cardholder and check the expiration date and signature on each Card. You will not
honor any Card if: (i) the Card has expired, (ii) the signature on the sales draft does not correspond with the signature on the Card, or
(iii) the account number embossed on the Card does not match the account number on the Cards magnetic strip (as printed in
electronic form) or the account number listed on a current Electronic Warning Bulletin file. You may not require a Cardholder to
provide personal information, such as a home or business telephone number, a home or business address, or a drivers license
number as a condition for honoring a Card unless permitted under the Laws and Rules (defined in Section 14, below).
C. Card Recovery. You will use your best efforts to retain any Card: (i) on Visa Cards if the printed four digits below the embossed
account number do not match the first four digits of the embossed account number; (ii) if you are advised by EVO or Bank (or a
designee) the issuer of the Card or the designated voice authorization center to retain it: (iii) if you have reasonable grounds to
believe the Card is counterfeit, fraudulent or stolen, or not authorized by the Cardholder; or (iv) if, for MasterCard Cards, the
embossed account number, indent printed account number and encoded account number do not match or the Card does not have a
MasterCard hologram on the lower right corner of the Card face.
D. Surcharges. You will not add any amount to the posted price of goods or services you offer as a condition of paying with a Card,
except as permitted by the Rules. This paragraph does not prohibit you from offering a discount from the standard price to induce a
person to pay by cash, check or similar means rather than by using a Card.
E. Return Policy. You will properly disclose to the Cardholder, at the time of the Card transaction and in accordance with the Rules,
any limitation you have on accepting returned merchandise.
F. No Claim Against Cardholder. You will not have any claim against or right to receive payment from a Cardholder unless EVO and
Bank refuses to accept the Sales Draft (as defined in Section 3) or revokes a prior acceptance of the Sales Draft after receipt or a
chargeback or otherwise. You will not accept any payments from a Cardholder relating to previous charges for merchandise or
services included in a Sales Draft, and if you receive any such payments you promptly will remit them to EVO and Bank.
G. Disputes With Cardholders. All disputes between you and any Cardholder relating to any Card transaction will be settled between
you and the Cardholder. Neither EVO nor Bank bear any responsibility for such transactions.
2. Authorization.
A. Required on all Transactions. You will obtain a prior authorization for the total amount of a transaction via electronic terminal or
device before completing any transaction, and you will not process any transaction that has not been authorized. You will follow any
instructions received during the authorization process. Upon receipt of authorization you may consummate only the transaction
authorized and must note on the Sales Draft the authorization number. Where authorization is obtained, you will be deemed to
warrant the true identity of the customer as the Cardholder.
B. Effect. Authorizations are not a guarantee of acceptance or payment of the Sales Draft. Authorizations do not waive any provisions
of this Agreement or otherwise validate a fraudulent transaction or a transaction involving the use of an expired Card.
C. Unreadable Magnetic Stripes. When you present Card transactions for authorization electronically, and if your terminal is unable to
read the magnetic stripe on the card, you will obtain an imprint of the card and the Cardholders signature on the imprinted draft
before presenting the Sales Draft to EVO and Bank for processing. Failure to do so may result in the assessment of a transaction
surcharge on non-qualifying transactions.
3. Presentment of Sales Drafts.
A. Forms. You will use a Sales Draft (Sales Draft) or other form approved by EVO and Bank to document each Card transaction.
Each Sales Draft will be legibly imprinted with: (i) Merchants name, location and account number; (ii) the information embossed on
the Card presented by the Cardholder (either electronically or manually); (iii) the date of the transaction; (iv) a brief description of the
goods or services involved; (v) the transaction authorization number; (vi) the total amount of the sale including any applicable taxes,
or credit transaction; and (vii) adjacent to the signature line, a notation that all sales are final, if applicable.
B. Signatures. Each Sales Draft must be signed by the Cardholder unless the Card transaction is a valid mail/telephone order Card
transaction which fully complies with the requirements set forth in this Agreement. You may not require the Cardholder to sign the
Sales Draft before you enter the final transaction amount in the Sales Draft.
C. Reproduction of Information. If the following information is not legibly imprinted on the Sales Draft, you will legibly inscribe on the
Sales Draft before submitting it to EVO and Bank: (i) the Cardholders name: (ii) account number (iii) expiration date of the Card and
(iv) the Merchants name and place of business. Additionally, for MasterCard transactions you will legibly inscribe the name of the
bank issuing the Card as it appears on the face of the Card.
D. Delivery and Retention of Sales Drafts. You will deliver a complete copy of the Sales Draft or credit voucher to the Cardholder at
the time of the transaction. You will retain the merchant copy of the Sales Draft or credit memorandum for at least 3 years following
the date of completion of the Card transaction (or such longer period as the Rules require).
E. Electronic Transmission. In using electronic authorization and/or data capture services, you will enter the data related to a sales or
credit transaction into a computer terminal or magnetic stripe reading terminal no later than the close of business on the date the
transaction is completed (unless otherwise permitted by the Rules). Failure to do so may result in the assessment of a transaction
surcharge on non-qualifying transactions and, at EVOs sole discretion, the deposit of the funds received for such sales or credit
transaction into the Reserve Account. If you provide your own electronic terminal or similar device, such terminal must meet EVO and
Banks requirements for processing transactions. Information regarding a sales or credit transaction transmitted with a computer or
magnetic stripe reading terminal will be transmitted by you to EVO and Bank or their agent in the form EVO and Bank from time to
time specify or as required under the Rules. If EVO or Bank requests a copy of a Sales Draft, credit voucher or other transaction
evidence, you will provide it within 24 hours following the request.
4. Deposit of Sales Drafts and Funds Due Merchant.
A. Deposit of Funds. i. Deposits. You agree that this Agreement is a contract of financial accommodation within the meaning of the
Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. 365 as amended from time to time. Subject to this Section, Bank will deposit to the Designated
Account (defined in section 6 below) funds evidenced by Sales Drafts (whether evidenced in writing or by electronic means)
complying with the terms of this Agreement and the Rules and will provide you provisional credit for such funds (less recoupment of
any credit(s), adjustments, fines, chargebacks, or fees). You shall not be entitled to credit for any indebtedness that arises out of a
transaction not processed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the rules and regulations of a card association or
network organization. You acknowledge that your obligation to EVO and Bank for all amounts owed under this Agreement arises out
of the same transaction as EVO and Banks obligation to deposit funds to the Designated Account. ii. Provisional Credit.
Notwithstanding the previous sentences, under no circumstance will EVO or Bank be responsible for processing credits or
adjustments related to Sales Drafts not originally processed by EVO and Bank. All Sales Drafts and deposits are subject to audit and
final checking by EVO and Bank and may be adjusted for inaccuracies. You acknowledge that all credits provided to you are
provisional and subject to chargebacks, recoupment, adjustments, fines and fees: (i) in accordance with the Rules; (ii) for any of your
obligations to EVO and Bank; and (iii) in any other situation constituting suspected fraud or a breach of this Agreement, whether or
not a transaction is charged back by the Card issuer. EVO and Bank may elect, but are not required, to grant conditional credit for
individual or groups of any funds evidenced by Sales Drafts. Final credit for those conditional funds will be granted within EVO and
Banks sole discretion. iii. Processing Limits. EVO and Bank may impose a cap on the volume and ticket amount of Sales Drafts that
they will process for you, as indicated to you by EVO or Bank. This limit may be changed by EVO or Bank upon written notice to you.
B. Chargebacks. You are fully liable for all transactions returned for whatever reason, otherwise known as chargebacks. You will
pay on demand the amount of all chargebacks. Authorization is granted to offset from incoming transactions and to debit the
Designated Account, the Reserve Account (defined in Section 7, below) or any other account held at Bank or at any other financial
institution the amount of all chargebacks. You will fully cooperate in complying with the Rules regarding chargebacks.
C. Excessive Activity. Your presentation to EVO and Bank of Excessive Activity will be a breach of this Agreement and cause for
immediate termination of this agreement. Excessive Activity means, during any monthly period: (i) the dollar amount of chargebacks
and/or retrieval requests in excess of 1% of the average monthly dollar amount of your Card transactions; (ii) sales activity that
exceeds by 10% of the dollar volume indicated on the Application; or (iii) the dollar amount of returns equals 20% of the average
monthly dollar amount of your Card transactions. You authorize, upon the occurrence of Excessive Activity, EVO and Bank to take
any action they deem necessary including but not limited to, suspension of processing privileges and establishment or increase in the
amount allocated to the Reserve Account and a reduction in the amount of provisional credit remitted to you in accordance with this
Agreement.
D. Credit. i. Credit Memoranda. You will issue a credit memorandum in any approved form, instead of making a cash advance, a
disbursement or a refund on any Card transaction. EVO or Bank will debit the Designated Account for the total face amount of each
credit memorandum submitted to EVO and Bank. You will not submit a credit memorandum relating to any Sales Draft not originally
submitted to EVO and Bank, nor will you submit a credit memorandum that exceeds the amount of the original Sales Draft. You will
within the time period specified by the Rules, provide a credit memorandum or credit statement for every return of goods or
forgiveness of debt for services which were the subject of a Card transaction. ii. Revocation of Credit. EVO or Bank may refuse to
accept any Sales Draft, and EVO and Bank may revoke prior acceptance of a Sales Draft in the following circumstances: (a) the
transaction giving rise to the Sales Draft was not made in compliance with this Agreement, the Laws or the Rules; (b) the Cardholder
disputes his liability to EVO and Bank for any reason, including but not limited to a contention that the Cardholder did not receive the
goods or services, that the goods or services provided were not as ordered, or those chargeback rights enumerated in the Rules; or
(c) the transaction giving rise to the Sales Draft was not directly between you and the Cardholder. You will pay EVO and Bank any
amount previously credited to you for a Sales Draft not accepted by EVO and Bank or where accepted, is revoked by EVO and Bank.
E. Reprocessing. Notwithstanding any authorization or request from a Cardholder, you will not re-enter or reprocess any transaction
which has been charged back.
F. Miscellaneous. You will not present for processing or credit, directly or indirectly, any transaction not originated as a result of a
Card transaction directly between you and a Cardholder or any transaction you know or should know to be fraudulent or not
authorized by the Cardholder. You will not sell or disclose to third parties Card account information other than in the course of
performing your obligations under this Agreement.
5. Other Types of Transactions.
A. Debit Card Processing Services. You may elect to accept debit cards, and said election should be made by you on the
accompanying Merchant Application. If you elect to accept debit cards, the following terms and conditions apply to you. Debit
Sponsor shall act as your sponsor with respect to the participation of point-of-sale terminals owned, controlled, and/or operated by
you (the Covered Terminals) in each of the following debit card networks (Networks): Accel, AFFN, Alaska Option, Interlink,
Maestro, NYCE, Pulse, Shazam, Star, CU24, and Tyme, which Networks may be changed from time-to-time by Debit Sponsor or
EVO without notice. You may also have access to other debit networks that do not require a sponsor. EVO will provide you with the
ability to access the Networks at the Covered Terminals for the purpose of authorizing debit card transactions from cards issued by
the members of the respective Networks, and EVO will provide connection to such Networks, terminal applications, settlement, and
reporting activities (collectively, the Services). You will comply with all federal, state, and local laws, rules, regulations and
ordinances (Applicable Laws) and with all by-laws, regulations, rules, and operating guidelines of the Networks (Network Rules).
You will execute and deliver any application, participation, or membership agreement or other document necessary to enable Debit
Sponsor to act as sponsor for you in each Network, and you shall obtain all consents, approvals, authorizations, or orders of any
governmental agency or body required for the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement. You agree to utilize the debit
card services in accordance with this Agreement, its exhibits or attachments, and EVOs instructions and specifications, and to
provide EVO with the necessary data in the proper format to enable EVO to properly furnish the Services. Copies of the relevant
agreements or operating regulations shall be made available to you upon request. You will provide prompt written notice to EVO in
the event that you are subject to any of the following: i. Conviction for a felony offense or any other crime involving moral turpitude; ii.
Restraining order, decree, injunction, or judgment in any proceeding or lawsuit alleging fraud or deceptive practice on your part; iii.
Bankruptcy filing or petition; iv. Federal or state tax lien; v. Any material adverse change in your assets, operations, or condition,
financial or otherwise; vi. The threat or filing of any litigation against you, the outcome of which reasonably could have a material
adverse effect on your continuing operations; vii. Administrative or enforcement proceeding commenced by any state or federal
regulatory agency, including any banking or securities agency or entity operating an EBT Network, that reasonably could have a
material adverse effect on your continuing operations; or viii. Any disciplinary action taken by any Network against you or any of your
principals. EVO may terminate or suspend in its discretion Debit Sponsors sponsorship of you in any Network or modify the provision
of Services to you: i. Immediately upon notice to you of the occurrence of any of the conditions set forth in items (i), (ii), (iii), (v), or
(viii) in the immediately preceding paragraph or if Debit Sponsors authority to participate in such Network or act as your sponsor in
such Network is terminated by such Network; ii. Thirty (30) days after written notice by EVO to you of the occurrence of any of the
conditions set forth in items (iv), (vi), or (vii) in the immediately preceding paragraph or if Debit Sponsor terminated its membership or
participation in such Network; iii. Immediately upon notice to you in the event any financial statement, representation, warranty,
statement or certificate furnished is materially false or misleading; or iv. Immediately upon notice to you of the occurrence of any other
circumstance with respect to this Section that may reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on EVO. The parties hereto
acknowledge and agree that EVO shall pay Debit Sponsor any and all fees related to Debit Sponsors sponsorship of you in the
Networks; provided, however, that in the event EVO fails to pay such amounts, Debit Sponsor shall be entitled to recover all such
amounts directly from you and you agree to pay all such amounts. You shall not in any way indicate that Debit Sponsor endorses
your activities, products, or services. Debit Sponsor and you are and shall remain independent contractors of one another, and
neither they, nor their respective individual employees, shall have or hold themselves out as having any power to bind the other to
any third party. Nothing contained in this section shall be construed to create or constitute a partnership, joint venture,
employer-employee, or agency relationship between Debit Sponsor and you. You shall indemnify and hold harmless EVO and its
affiliates (including parents and subsidiaries), and their respective officers, directors, employees, successors and assigns, from and
against any and all direct or contingent losses, costs, claims, demands, and causes of action (including, without limitation, the cost of
investigating the claim, the cost of litigation, and reasonable attorneys fees including those of in-house counsel, whether or not legal
proceedings are instituted) paid or incurred by or on behalf of EVO as a result of your violation of any of the terms of this Section,
Network Rules, or Applicable Laws, or otherwise arising from or related to Debit Sponsors sponsorship of you in any Network. In the
event that Debit Sponsors sponsorship of you in any Network is terminated prior to the termination of this Agreement, EVO may
assign Debit Sponsors rights and obligations hereunder to a third party. All provisions in this section necessary to enforce the rights
and obligations of the parties contained in this section shall survive the termination of Debit Sponsors debit sponsorship of you under
this Agreement.
B. Mail/Telephone Order. EVO and Bank caution against mail orders or telephone orders or any transaction in which the Cardholder
and Card are not present (mail/telephone orders) due to the high incidence of customer disputes. You will obtain the expiration date
of the Card for a mail/telephone order and submit the expiration date when obtaining authorization of the Card transaction. For
mail/telephone order transactions, you will type or print legibly on the signature line the following as applicable: telephone order or
TO or mail order or MO. You must promptly notify EVO and Bank if your retail/mail order/telephone order mix changes from the
percentages represented to EVO and Bank in the Merchant Application. EVO and Bank may cease accepting mail/telephone order
transactions, or limit their acceptance of such transactions, or increase their fees if this mix changes. Bank will release funds to
Merchant five (5) business days after the transaction date for mail/telephone orders. Merchant agrees to use and retain proof of a
traceable delivery system as means of shipment of product to the customer. Merchant agrees that transactions will not be processed
until products are shipped to the Cardholder. Merchant agrees to pay a charge of $0.05 per AVS transaction, if applicable. This
agreement may be immediately terminated by Bank if Merchant fails to comply with any of the terms of the agreement.
C. Recurring Transactions. For recurring transactions, you must obtain a written request from the Cardholder for the goods and
services to be charged to the Cardholders account, the frequency of the recurring charge, and the duration of time during which such
charges may be made. You will not complete any recurring transaction after receiving: (i) a cancellation notice from the Cardholder,
(ii) notice from EVO or Bank, or (iii) a response that the Card is not to be honored. You must print legibly on the Sales Draft the words
Recurring Transaction.
D. Multiple Sales Drafts. You will include a description and total amount of goods and services purchased in a single transaction on a
single Sales Draft or transaction record, unless (i) partial payment is entered on the Sales Draft or transaction record and the balance
of the transaction amount is paid in cash or by check at the time of transaction, or (ii) a Sales Draft represents an advance deposit in
a Card transaction completed in accordance with this Agreement and the Rules.
E. Partial Completion. i. Prior Consent. You will not accept for payment by Card any amount representing a deposit or partial payment
for goods or services to be delivered in the future without the prior written consent of EVO or Bank. Such consent will be subject to
Banks final approval. The acceptance of a Card for payment or partial payment of goods or services to be delivered in the future
without prior consent will be deemed a breach of this Agreement and cause for immediate termination, in addition to any other
remedies available under the Laws or Rules. ii. Acceptance. If you have obtained prior written consent, then you will complete such
Card transactions in accordance with the terms set forth in this Agreement, the Rules, and the Laws. Cardholders must execute one
Sales Draft when making a deposit with a Card and a second Sales Draft when paying the balance. You will note upon the Sales
Draft the words deposit or balance as appropriate. You will not deposit the Sales Draft labeled balance until the goods have
been delivered to Cardholder or you have fully performed the services.
F. Future Delivery. You will not present any Sales Draft or other memorandum to Bank for processing whether by electronic means
which relates to the sale of goods or services for future delivery without EVO or Banks, prior written authorization. Such consent will
be subject to Banks final approval. If EVO or Bank have given such consent, you represent and warrant to EVO and Bank that you
will not rely on any proceeds or credit resulting from such transactions to purchase or furnish goods or services. You will maintain
sufficient working capital to provide for the delivery of goods or services at the agreed upon future date, independent of any credit or
proceeds resulting from sales drafts or other memoranda taken in connection with future delivery transactions.
G. Electronic Commerce Transactions. You may process electronic commerce (EC) transactions only if you have so indicated on
the Application, and only if you have obtained EVOs consent. If you submit EC transactions without our consent, we may
immediately terminate this Agreement. If you have indicated on the Application that you will be submitting EC transactions, you
acknowledge that you have reviewed the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS), Visas Cardholder Information
Security Program (CISP) and MasterCards Site Data Protection Program (SDP), and to the extent that they apply to you, you agree
to comply with, and ensure such transactions comply with, the terms of each. You understand that transactions processed via EC are
high risk and subject to a higher incidence of chargebacks. You are liable for all chargebacks and losses related to EC transactions,
whether or not: i) EC transactions have been encrypted; and ii) you have obtained consent to engage in such transactions. Encryption
is not a guarantee of payment and will not waive any provision of this Agreement or otherwise validate a fraudulent transaction. All
communication costs related to EC transactions are your responsibility. You understand that EVO will not manage the EC
telecommunications link and that it is your responsibility to manage that link. All EC transactions will be settled by Bank into a
depository institution of the United States in U.S. currency. i. Requirements. For goods to be shipped on EC transactions, you may
obtain authorization up to 7 calendar days prior to the shipment date. You need not obtain a second authorization if the Sales Draft
amount is within 15% of the authorized amount, provided that the additional amount represents shipping costs. Further, your web site
must contain all of the following information: i) complete description of the goods or services offered, ii) returned merchandise and
refund policy, iii) customer service contact, including electronic mail address and/or telephone number, iv) transaction currency (such
as U.S. or Canadian dollars), v) export or legal restrictions, if known, and vi) delivery policy. If you store cardholder account numbers,
expiration dates, and other personal cardholder data in the database, you must follow PCI DSS, CISP and SDP guidelines on
securing such data. ii. If you accept EC transactions, you must: install and maintain a working network firewall to protect data
accessible via the Internet; keep security patches up-to-date; encrypt stored data and data sent over open networks; use and update
anti-virus software; restrict access to data by business need-to-know; assign a unique ID to each person with computer access to
data; not use vendor-supplied defaults for system passwords and other security parameters; track access to data by unique ID;
regularly test security systems and processes; maintain a policy that addresses information security for employees and contractors;
and restrict physical access to Cardholder information. When outsourcing administration of information assets, networks, or data you
must retain legal control of proprietary information and use limited need-to-know access to such assets, networks or data. Further,
you must reference the protection of cardholder information and compliance with the PCI DSS, CISP and SDP Rules in contracts with
other service providers. You understand that failure to comply with this Section may result in fines and you agree to indemnify
and reimburse EVO and Bank immediately for any fine imposed due to your breach of this Section.
H. American Express, JCB and Diners Club Transactions. Upon your request, EVO will provide authorization and/or data capture
service, for JCB, Diners Club and American Express transactions. By signing this Merchant Agreement, Merchant agrees to abide by
the terms and conditions of Diners Club, American Express, and JCB. Merchant understands that the Diners Club Agreement will be
sent to the business entity indicated on this application. By accepting the Diners Club Card for goods and/or services, Merchant
agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Agreement. EVO and Bank are not responsible for funding such transactions.
Initial setup fees may apply.
l. Cash Advances. You will not deposit any transaction for purposes of obtaining or providing a cash advance. You agree that any
such deposit shall be grounds for immediate termination.
J. Prohibited Transactions. You will not accept or deposit any fraudulent or illegal transaction and you may not, under any
circumstances, present for deposit directly or indirectly, a transaction which originated with any other merchant or any other source.
You will not, under any circumstance, deposit telemarketing transactions unless you obtain Bank, EVO prior written consent. Such
consent will be subject to Banks final approval. If you process any such transactions, you may be immediately terminated and EVO

credit that would otherwise be allocated to you. Further, you may be subject to Visa, MasterCard or Discover reporting requirements.
6. Designated Account.
A. Establishment and Authority. Merchant will establish and maintain an account at an ACH receiving depository institution approved
by Bank and EVO (Designated Account). Merchant will maintain sufficient funds in the Designated Account to satisfy all obligations,
including fees, contemplated by this Agreement. Merchant irrevocably authorizes Bank and EVO to debit the Designated Account for
chargebacks, recoupments, adjustments, fines, fees and any other penalties or amounts owed under this Agreement, and
irrevocably authorizes Bank and EVO to debit the Designated Account for any amount owed to Bank and EVO under this Agreement
other than the amounts directly attributable to the settlement of transactions. You also authorize EVO and Bank to debit the
Merchant Account for any fees due such vendor or agent under this Agreement. This authority will remain in effect for at least 2
years after termination of this Agreement whether or not you have notified EVO and Bank of a change to the Designated Account.
Merchant must obtain prior written consent from Bank or EVO to change the Designated Account. If Merchant does not get that
consent, EVO or Bank may immediately terminate the Agreement and may take other action necessary, as determined by them
within their sole discretion.
B. Deposit. Bank will deposit all Sales Drafts to the Designated Account subject to the other provisions of this Agreement. The funds
represented by Sales Drafts will be deposited 3 business days following EVOs receipt of the Sales Draft, except for mail
order/telephone order and electronic commerce transactions, which will be deposited 5 business days following receipt of the Sales
Draft. Business Day means Monday through Friday, excluding holidays observed by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
Merchant authorizes Bank and EVO to initiate reversal or adjustment entries and initiate or suspend such entries as may be
necessary to grant Merchant provisional credit for any entry. You authorize and appoint Bank and EVO to act as your agent to collect
Card transaction amounts from the Card issuing bank. As the collecting agent, Bank and EVO in their sole discretion, may grant you
provisional credit for transaction amounts in the process of collection, subject to receipt of final payment by Bank and subject to all
chargebacks.
C. Asserted Errors. You must promptly examine all statements relating to the Designated Account, and immediately notify EVO and
Bank in writing of any errors. Your written notice must include: (i) Merchant name and account number. (ii) the dollar amount of the
asserted error, (iii) a description of the asserted error, and (iv) an explanation of why you believe an error exists and the cause of it, if
known. That written notice must be received by EVO and Bank within 30 calendar days after you received the periodic statement
containing the asserted error. Your failure to notify EVO and Bank of any error within 30 days constitutes a waiver of any claim
relating to that error. You may not make any claim against EVO or Bank for any loss or expense relating to any asserted error for 60
calendar days immediately following our receipt of your written notice. During that 60 day period, EVO and Bank will be entitled to
investigate the asserted error.
D. Indemnity. You will indemnify and hold EVO and Bank harmless for any action they take against the Designated Account, the
Reserve Account, or any other account pursuant to this Agreement.
E. ACH Authorization. You authorize EVO and Bank to initiate debit/credit entries to the Designated Account, the Reserve Account,
or any other account maintained by you at any institution, all in accordance with this Agreement and the ACH Authorization on the
attached Exhibit B, Merchant Authorizations . The ACH Authorization will remain in effect beyond termination of this Agreement. In
the event you change the Designated Account, you will execute a new ACH Authorization.
7. Security Interests, Reserve Account, Recoupment and Set-Off.
A. Security Interests. i. Security Agreement. This Agreement is a security agreement under the Uniform Commercial Code. You grant
to EVO and Bank a security interest in and lien upon: (i) all funds at any time in the Designated Account, regardless of the source of
such funds; (ii) all funds at any time in the Reserve Account, regardless of the source of such funds; (iii) present and future Sales
Drafts; and (iv) any and all amounts which may be due to you under this Agreement including, without limitation, all rights to receive
any payments or credits under this Agreement (collectively, the Secured Assets). You agree to provide other collateral or security
to EVO and Bank to secure your obligations under this Agreement upon EVO or Banks request. These security interests and liens
will secure all of your obligations under this Agreement and any other agreements now existing or later entered into between you
and EVO or Bank. This security interest may be exercised by EVO or Bank without notice or demand of any kind by making an
immediate withdrawal or freezing the secured assets. ii. Perfection. Upon request of EVO or Bank, you will execute one or more
financing statements or other documents to evidence this security interest. You represent and warrant that no other person or entity
has a security interest in the Secured Assets. Further, with respect to such security interests and liens, EVO and Bank will have all
rights afforded under the Uniform Commercial Code, any other applicable law and in equity. You will obtain from EVO and Bank
written consent prior to granting a security interest of any kind in the Secured Assets to a third party. You agree that this is a contract
of recoupment and EVO and Bank are not required to file a motion for relief from the automatic stay in any bankruptcy proceeding in
order for EVO or Bank to realize on any of its collateral (including any Reserve Account). Nevertheless you agree not to contest or
object to any motion for relief from the automatic stay filed by EVO or Bank. You authorize EVO or Bank and appoint EVO or Bank
your attorney in fact to sign your name to any financing statement used for the perfection of any security interest or lien granted
hereunder.
B. Reserve Account. i. Establishment. A non-interest bearing deposit account (Reserve Account) has been established and is
maintained at Bank or one of its affiliates with sums sufficient to satisfy your current and future merchant obligations as determined
by EVO and Bank. You authorize EVO and Bank to debit the Designated Account or any other account you have at Bank or any
other financial institution to establish or maintain funds in the Reserve Account. Bank or EVO may deposit into the Reserve Account
funds it would otherwise be obligated to pay you, for the purpose of establishing, maintaining or increasing the Reserve Account in
accordance with this Section, if it determines such action is reasonably necessary to protect its interests. ii. Authorizations. EVO and
Bank may, without notice to you, apply deposits in the Reserve Account against any outstanding amounts you owe under this
Agreement or any other agreement between you and EVO or Bank. Also, EVO and Bank may exercise their rights under this
Agreement against the Reserve Account to collect any amounts due to EVO or Bank including, without limitation, rights of set-off and
recoupment. In the event you submit a merchant application to EVO through the use of Insta-App, and EVO does not receive a
completed written merchant application within 2 business days, you authorize EVO or Bank to hold all of your funds in the Reserve
Account until the completed written merchant application and other required documentation is received by EVO. iii. Funds. Funds in
the Reserve Account will remain in the Reserve Account for 270 calendar days following the later of termination of this Agreement or
the last activity in your account, provided, however, that you will remain liable to EVO and Bank for all liabilities occurring beyond
such 270 day period. After the expiration of the 270 day period EVO will provide you with written notification via nationally recognized
delivery service advising you that the 270 day period has expired, requesting that you provide EVO with an address where the funds
you have remaining in the Reserve Account should be delivered, and stating that in the event you fail to respond to this notification
within 30 days, EVO will begin deducting a flat fee of $95 each month from the funds you have remaining in the Reserve Account. In
the event you fail to respond to the notification, the $95 fee will then be deducted each month from the funds you have remaining in
the Reserve Account. This fee will offset the administrative, clerical, legal, and risk management costs incurred by EVO to monitor
the funds you have remaining in the Reserve Account beyond the 270 day period, and includes all monthly minimums and any other
contractual fees that would ordinarily be assessed against your account pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. You agree that
prior to the expiration of the 270 days, you will not use any funds you have in the Reserve Account for any purpose, including but not
limited to paying chargebacks, fees, fines, or other amounts you owe to EVO and/or Bank under this Agreement. EVO and Bank
(and not Merchant) shall have control of the Reserve Account. iv. Assurance. In the event of a bankruptcy proceeding and the
determination by the court that this Agreement is assumable under Bankruptcy Code 365, as amended from time to time, you must
maintain funds in the Reserve Account in an amount satisfactory to EVO and Bank.
C. Recoupment and Set Off. EVO and Bank have the right of recoupment and set-off. This means that they may offset or recoup any
outstanding/uncollected amounts owed by you from: (i) any amounts they would otherwise be obligated to deposit into the
Designated Account; (ii) any other amounts Bank or EVO may owe you under this Agreement or any other agreement; and (iii) any
funds in the Designated Account or the Reserve Account. You acknowledge that in the event of a bankruptcy proceeding, in order for
you to provide adequate protection under Bankruptcy Code 362 to EVO and Bank, you must create or maintain the Reserve
Account as required by EVO and Bank, and EVO and Bank must have the right to offset against the Reserve Account for any and all
obligations which you may owe to EVO and Bank, without regard to whether the obligations relate to Sales Drafts initiated or created
before or after the filing of the bankruptcy petition.
D. Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies conferred upon EVO and Bank in this Agreement, at law or in equity, are not
intended to be exclusive of each other. Rather, each and every right of EVO and Bank under this Agreement, at law or in equity, will
be cumulative and concurrent and in addition to every other right.
8. Fees and Other Amounts Owed EVO and Bank.
A. Fees and Taxes. You will pay EVO fees for services, forms and equipment in accordance with the rates set forth on the
Application. In addition, you will pay EVO a fee for research it performs at your request in an amount equal to $200 per hour, or $5
per statement. Such fees will be calculated and debited from the Designated Account once each business day or month for the
previous business days or months activity or will be netted out from the funds due you attributable to Sales Drafts presented to EVO
and Bank. EVO and Bank reserve the right to adjust the fees set forth on the Application and in this Section, in accordance with
Section 16.H, below. If you do not have an active account at the time of the request, payment by certified check or money order must
be received prior to the release of the requested document copies or research results. You are also obligated to pay all taxes, and
other charges imposed by any governmental authority on the services provided under this Agreement. With respect to Visa,
MasterCard and Discover products, you may elect to accept credit cards or debit/prepaid cards or both. You shall so elect on the
Merchant Application being completed contemporaneously herewith. You agree to pay and your account(s) will be charged pursuant
to Section 6.A of this Agreement for any additional fees incurred as a result of your subsequent acceptance of transactions with any
Visa, MasterCard or Discover product that you have elected not to accept.
B. Other Amounts Owed EVO and Bank. You will immediately pay EVO and Bank any amount incurred by EVO and Bank
attributable to this Agreement including but not limited to chargebacks, fines and penalties imposed by Visa, MasterCard or Discover
(including but not limited to fines and penalties related to PCI DSS), non-sufficient fund fees, and ACH debits that overdraw the
Designated Account or Reserve Account, or are otherwise dishonored. You authorize EVO and Bank to debit via ACH the
Designated Account or any other account you have at Bank or at any other financial institution for any amount you owe EVO or Bank
under this Agreement or under any other contract, note, guaranty, instrument or dealing of any kind now existing or later entered into
between you and EVO or Bank, whether your obligation is direct, indirect, primary, secondary, fixed, contingent, joint or several. In
the event EVO or Bank demand sums due or such ACH does not fully reimburse EVO and Bank for the amount owed, you will
immediately pay EVO and Bank such amount.
C. Merchant Supply/Replacement Program. Merchant is responsible for purchasing all supplies required to properly process credit
card transactions (sales slips, printer rolls, etc.). If Merchant elects to participate in EVOs Supply/Replacement Program, Merchant
understands that it is entitled to a maximum of 6 rolls of paper and 2 printer ribbons per month. It is Merchants responsibility to
contact EVO each month to order supplies. EVO will only provide Merchant with supplies for the current month, and Merchants
failure to place an order with EVO will constitute a waiver of its right to receive supplies for that month under the
Supply/Replacement Program. Quantity of supplies provided is at the discretion of EVO. Enrollment in EVOs Supply/Replacement
Program also entitles Merchant to free refurbished replacement equipment after EVO has collected 3 monthly payments from
Merchant (merchant is responsible for all shipping costs). A separate program is required for each terminal Merchant may have. If
Merchants terminal type is unavailable, at EVOs discretion, a substitute may be provided. EVOs Supply/Replacement Program
does not include labor, parts, or expenses necessary to replace or repair equipment damaged by fire, flood, accident, improper
voltages, misuse of equipment, service performed by persons other than EVO representatives, and/or failure to continually maintain
a suitable operating environment for the equipment. EVO may choose to cancel Merchants Supply/Replacement Program at any
time without notice. This program is nontransferable without written consent. Maintenance is not available for any wireless terminals.

regulations related to cardholder data security, including without limitation the PCI DSS. Without limiting the generality of the

by Visa, MasterCard, Discover, or the debit network, you may cancel the Agreement without charge if you object to the fee changes
in writing within 30 days. If you do not object, and continue to process for 30 days after receiving notice of the fee change, you will be
deemed to assent to the new fees.
I. Severability and Waiver. If any provision of this Agreement is illegal, the invalidity of that provision will not affect any of the
remaining provisions and this Agreement will be construed as if the illegal provision is not contained in the Agreement. Neither the
failure nor delay by EVO or Bank to exercise, or partial exercise of, any right under this Agreement will operate as a waiver or
estoppel of such right, nor shall it amend this Agreement. All waivers must be signed by the waiving party.

joint venture or partner of the other, except as provided in 6.C and 7.A(ii).

17. E-statements.
A. Merchant Account Statement. Upon opening a merchant processing account you will automatically have access to your monthly
merchant account statement electronically (an E-statement) by viewing it on line. This Agreement governs the electronic availability
of your E-statement. You agree to abide by the terms and conditions stated herein, and to access E-statements, as well as all
notices and initial and future disclosures regarding your E-statement, online. You acknowledge that by the third business day of each
month, your E-statement will be available online. You will be notified in writing of the website where you can access your
E-statement. Your E-statement will be accessible only through a secure Log In screen which requires the use of a unique User ID
and Password. You understand that you will not receive a monthly merchant account statement by U.S. postal mail, and that making
your E-statement available online constitutes EVOs compliance with delivery of your monthly merchant account statement. You can
print the E-statement or save the file to your computers hard drive or other disk in order to retain a copy of the E-statement. Your
E-statement can be accessed through the E-statement link for three consecutive months from the date the E-statement is first made
available. You further agree to receive all initial and periodic account disclosure information in an electronic format. All such
disclosures shall be provided in a clear, conspicuous manner that you can print and/or save using the hardware and software
specified below. You are also entitled to obtain a paper copy of all disclosures or E-statements upon written request, however such a
request does not constitute a withdrawal of consent to receive monthly E-statements. A fee may apply for providing such
documentation. You understand that you may withdraw your consent to receive E-statements, or change your email address, upon
30 days written notice to EVO. Please note that a withdrawal of consent does not apply to an E-statement that was furnished before
the date on which the withdrawal of consent becomes effective. PC Requirements: Viewing your E-statement on line requires a
personal computer with Adobe Acrobat and internet access through a standard web browser. The product version levels must be
supported by the respective vendors (i.e., Adobe, Apple, Mozilla, and Microsoft). EVO is not obligated to ensure that your
E-statements are accessible through outdated vendor products. In the event you are unable to access any of the information that has
been made available by EVO in electronic format, it is your obligation to notify EVO in writing immediately.
B. Reporting Of Errors. You must promptly view all E-statements, and immediately notify EVO in writing of any errors. Your written
notice must include: (i) Merchant name and account number; (ii) the dollar amount of the asserted error; (iii) a description of the
asserted error; and (iv) an explanation of why you believe an error exists and the cause of it, if known. That written notice must be
received by EVO within 30 calendar days after the E-statement containing the asserted error is first made available. Your failure to
notify EVO of any error within 30 days constitutes a waiver of any claim relating to that error. You may not make any claim against
EVO for any loss or expense relating to any asserted error for 60 calendar days immediately following EVOs receipt of your written
notice. During that 60 day period, EVO will be entitled to investigate the asserted error and we will notify you of the results of our
investigation.
C. Miscellaneous. EVO shall not be responsible for: (i) consequential or incidental damages caused by services performed by EVO,
its agents, or your Internet Service Provider (ISP); (ii) damages arising from unauthorized access to E-statement services; or (iii)
any costs associated with updating, modifying or terminating your software or hardware. EVO may change, suspend, or terminate
all or any aspect of this service upon written notice to you.
18. Electronic Signatures.

documents related hereto are legally binding in the same manner as are hard copy documents executed by hand signature when:
(a) your electronic signature is associated with the Agreement and related documents, (b) you consent and intend to be bound by

documents shall be effective by electronic means, (ii) to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement and related
documents, (iii) that you have the ability to print or otherwise store the Agreement and related documents, and (iv) to authorize EVO
