Accepting numerous payment options provides a convenience to your customers, increases your customers' ability to make purchases at your establishment, and helps speed payment to your account. Your Merchant Processing Application will indicate the types of payments and Services you have elected to accept. These Program Terms and Conditions ( "the Program Guide ") presents terms governing the acceptance of Visa,® MasterCard® and Discover' Network Credit Card and Non -PIN Debit Card payments and American Expresso Card transactions and applicable to Non -Bank Services. This Program Guide, your Merchant Processing Application and the schedules thereto (collectively, the "Agreement "), including, without limitation, the Interchange Qualification Matrix and American Express Program Pricing and one of the Interchange Schedules, as applicable to your pricing method as set forth in the Merchant Processing Application, contains the terms and conditions under which Processor and/or Bank and/or other third parties, will provide services . We will not accept any alterations or strike -outs to the Agreement and, if made, any such alterations or strike -outs shall not apply. Please read this Program Guide completely. You acknowledge that certain Services referenced in the Agreement may not be available to you. IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT BANK'S RESPONSIBILITIES: Discover Network Card Transactions, American Express Card Transactions and other Non -Bank Services are not provided to you by Bank, but are provided by Processor and/or third parties. The provisions of this Agreement regarding Discover Network Card Transactions, American Express Card Transactions and other Non -Bank Services constitute an agreement solely between you and Processor and/or third parties. Bank is not a party to this Agreement insofar as it relates to Discover Network Card Transactions, American Express Card Transactions and other Non -Bank Services, and Bank is not responsible, and shall have no liability, to you in any way with respect to Discover Network Card Transactions, American Express Card Transactions and Non -Bank Services. OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Cards present risks of loss and non- payment that are different than those with other payment systems. In deciding to accept Cards, you should be aware that you are also accepting these risks. Visa U.S.A., Inc. ( "Visa ") MasterCard Worldwide ( "MasterCard "), DFS Services LLC ( "Discover Network "), and American Express Company, Inc. ( "American Express ") are payment card networks that electronically exchange Sales Drafts and Chargebacks for Card sales and Credits. Sales Drafts are electronically transferred from banks (in the case of MasterCard and Visa transactions) or network acquirers (in the case of Discover Network transactions) that acquire them from merchants such as yourself through the appropriate Card Organization, to the Issuers. These Issuers then bill their Cardholders for the transactions. The Card Organizations charge the Acquirers interchange fees, pricing and/or assessments for submitting transactions into their systems. A substantial portion of the Discount Rate or Transaction Fees that you pay will go toward these interchange fees, pricing and assessments. In order to speed up the payment process, the Issuer transfers the funds back through the Card Organization to the Acquirer at approximately the same time that the Issuer receives the electronic Sales Drafts. Even though the payments under this system are made simultaneously, all payments made through the Card Organizations are conditional and subject to reversals and adjustments. Each Card Organization has developed Card Organization Rules that govern their Acquirers and Issuers and the procedures, responsibilities and allocation of risk for this process. Merchants are also bound by Card Organization Rules and applicable laws and regulations. The Card Organization Rules and applicable laws and regulations give Cardholders and Issuers certain rights to dispute transactions, long after payment has been made to the merchant, including Chargeback rights. We do not decide what transactions are charged back and we do not control the ultimate resolution of the Chargeback. While we can attempt to reverse a Chargeback to the Issuer, we can only do so if the Issuer agrees to accept it or the Card Organization requires the Issuer to do so after a formal appeal process. Sometimes, your customer may be able to successfully charge back a Card transaction even though you have provided your goods or services and are otherwise legally entitled to payment from your customer. While you may still be able to pursue claims directly against that customer, neither we nor the Issuer will be responsible for such transactions. You will be responsible for all Chargebacks and adjustments associated with the transactions that you submit for processing. Please refer to the Glossary for certain capitalized terms used in the Agreement, including this Preface (if not defined above) Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in the Agreement may be found in the Card Organization Rules.

Processor is a full - service financial transaction processor dedicated, among other processing services, to facilitating the passage of your Sales Drafts back to the thousands of institutions who issue the MasterCard," Visa' and Discover' Network Cards carried by your customers, as well as to the independent Issuers of American Express'. The Operating Procedures contained in this part seek to provide you with the principles for a sound Card program; however, you should consult the Card Organization Rules for complete inform -ation and to ensure full compliance with them. They are designed to help you decrease your Chargeback liability and train your employees. (In the event we provide authorization, processing or settlement of transactions involving Cards other than MasterCard, Visa, Discover Network and American Express, you should also consult those independent Issuers' proprietary rules and regulations.) The requirements set forth in these Operating Procedures will apply unless prohibited by law. You are responsible for following any additional or conflicting requirements imposed by your state or local jurisdiction. 1.1. Card Descriptions. At the point of sale, the Card must be carefully examined to determine whether it is a legitimate and valid Card and not visibly altered or mutilated. The name of the Card (e.g., Visa, MasterCard, Discover Network or American Express) should appear in bold letters on the Card. For all MasterCard and Visa Cards and for some Discover Network Cards, the Issuer (e.g., XYZ Bank, etc.) should also appear in bold letters on the Card. The following is a description of the authorized Visa, MasterCard, Discover Network and American Express Card designs: Visa: The Visa Brand Mark must appear in blue and gold on a white background in either the bottom right, top left, or top right comer. Embossed/Unembossed or Printed Account Number on valid cards begins with "4." All digits must be even, straight, and the same size. The Four to Six Digit Bank Identification Number (BIN) must be printed directly below the account number. This number must snatch exactly with the first four digits of the account number. The Expiration or "Good Thru" date should appear below the account number. The Mini -Dove Design Hologram may appear on the back of the card. The three - dimensional dove hologram should appear to move as you tilt the card. The Magnetic- Stripe is encoded with the card's identifying information. The Card Verification Value 2 (CVV2) is a three -digit code that appears either in a white box to the right of the signature panel, or directly on the signature panel. Portions of the account number may also be present on the signature panel. CVV2 is used primarily in card - absent transactions to verify that customer is in possession of a valid Visa card at the time of the sale. The Signature Panel must appear on the back of the card and contain an ultraviolet element that repeats the word "Visa's'." It may vary in length. The words "Authorized Signature" and "Not Valid Unless Signed" must appear above, below, or beside the signature panel. If someone tried to erase the signature panel; the word `VOID" will be displayed. Chip cards contain a small embedded microchip that is virtually impossible to copy or counterfeit. Chip Antenna for contactless cards, the interface can be an antenna embedded into the back of the card and connected to the chip. A contactless transaction works at terminals through the radio frequency wave between the card and the terminal. You are required to familiarize yourself with the new design by consulting the document entitled "Card Acceptance Guidelines for Visa Merchants and Chargeback Management Guidelines for Visa Merchants ". You may download the document from Visa's website at httl2: / /H,,Aryvvisa.coin /merchant or order a hardcopy to be mailed to you for a nominal charge by telephoning Visa Fulfillment at 800 -VISA -311. MasterCard: The MasterCard symbol appears on the front or back of the Card. The global hologram is three dimensional with a repeat "MasterCard" printed in the background. In addition, the words Classic, Preferred, Gold or Business may appear. When rotated, the hologram will reflect light and appear to move. MasterCard account numbers are sixteen (16) digits, and the first digit is always a five (5). The first four digits of the account must be printed directly below the embossed number. The signature panel is tamper evident with the word "MasterCard" printed in multiple colors at a 45' angle. For magnetic swiped transactions, remember to compare the signature on the back of the card with the cardholders signature on the receipt. The 4 digits printed of the signature panel must match the last 4 digits of the account number, followed by the 3 digit indent printed CVC2 number. A Chip may be present on the card. The cardholder will be prompted to enter a unique personal identification number or PIN when the card is inserted into a chip capable payment terminal. PayPassO+ contactless payment technology may be present on card. A signature is not required for PayPass® "tapped" transactions below a specified limit. You are required to familiarize yourself with the new design by consulting a document "MasterCard Card Identification Features." You may download the document from MasterCard's website at w- wwmastercard.us/merchants. Discover Network: The Discover Network includes Discover, Diners Club htternational, domestic JCB, UnionPay, BCcard, and Dinacard. Valid standard, rectangular plastic Cards bearing a Discover' Acceptance Mark include the following common characteristics and distinctive features: FDSIS00B1805(ia) 7 • The Discover Acceptance Mark may appear on the lower right corner of the front, back, or both sides of the Card. • Cards display either a three - dimensional hologram on the front or back of the Card OR a three - dimensional holographic magnetic stripe on the back of the Card. Valid Cards do not display holograms on both front and back. • Card Numbers may be embossed or unembossed and will appear on either the front or back of a Card. Card Numbers begin with the number "6" and are composed of 16 digits that should be clear and uniform in size and spacing. • The Cardholder name, and if applicable, business name, may be embossed or unembossed and will appear on either the front or back of the Card. • The "Valid Thru" date may be embossed or unembossed and will appear on either the front or back of a Card in mm/yy format that indicates the last month in which the Card is valid. • The words "DISCOVER" or "DISCOVER NETWORK" appears on the front of the Card under an ultraviolet light. • The signature panel displays the words "DISCOVER" or "DISCOVER NETWORK" and may vary in size. Cards may contain a panel that includes an ultraviolet image of the word "DISCOVER." An underprint of "void" on the signature panel becomes visible if erasure of the signature is attempted. • The last four digits of the Card Number may be displayed on the back of the Card and are commonly printed in reverse indent printing on the signature panel. • On embossed Cards, a security character, displayed as an embossed stylized "D" may appear on the front of the Card. • The 3 -digit CID is printed on the back of the Card in a separate box to the right of the signature panel. NOTE: Valid Cards may not always be rectangular in shape (e.g., Discover 2GO Cards). Certain valid unembossed Cards or Contactless Payment Devices approved by us for use in accessing Card Accounts (e.g., contactless stickers, key fobs, and Mobile Commerce Devices) and to conduct Contactless Card Transactions may not display the same features described above. Card expiration date and other features listed above are not displayed on such Contactless Payment Devices. NOTE: For unembossed Cards used to conduct a Card Present Card Sales, Merchants must obtain an Authorization Response electronically using a POS Device.

When the valid date is expressed in a month/year format, MasterCard transactions that occur before the first day of the month and year are invalid. Do not accept a Card prior to the effective date or after the expiration date. If the Card has expired, you cannot accept it for a Card sale unless you have verified through your Authorization Center that the Card is in good standing, otherwise, you are subject to a Chargeback and could be debited for the transaction.

Users Other Than Cardholders. A Cardholder may not authorize another individual to use his/her Card for purchases. Be sure the signature on the Card matches with the one on the Sales Draft. Furthermore, any Card having two signatures on the back panel is invalid and any sale made with this Card can result in a Chargeback. For Cards bearing a photograph of the Cardholder, ensure that the Cardholder appears to be the person depicted in the picture which appears on the Card. If you have any questions, call the Voice Authorization Center and request to speak to a Code 10 operator. I.S. SpeeialTerms. If you limit refunds or exchanges or impose other specific conditions for Card sales, you must provide proper disclosure to the Cardholder at the time of transaction in accordance with applicable law If applicable, the words "No Exchange, No Refund," etc. must be clearly printed (in 1/4" letters) on the Sales Draft near or above the Cardholder's signature. The Cardholder's copy of the Sales Draft, as well as your copy, must clearly display this information near or above the Cardholder's signature. Applicable disclosures may vary by transaction type. During a liquidation and/or closure of any of your outlets, locations and/or businesses, you must post signs clearly visible to customers stating that "All Sales Are Final," and stamp the Sales Draft with a notice that "All Sales Are Final." Generally, do not give cash, check or in -store Credit refunds for Card sales. Visa allows for the following exclusions: A cash refund to the Cardholder for a Visa Easy Payment Service Transaction, a cash refund, Credit, or other appropriate form of Credit to the recipient of a gift purchased as a Mail/Phone Order transaction, or a cash refund or in -store Credit for a Visa prepaid card transaction if the Cardholder states that the Visa prepaid card has been discarded. NOTE: A disclosure does not eliminate your liability for a Chargeback. Consumer protection laws and Card Organization Rules frequently allow the Cardholder to dispute these items notwithstanding such disclosures. 1.6. Delayed Delivery or Deposit Balance, In a delayed delivery transaction where a Cardholder makes a deposit toward the full amount of the sale, you should execute two separate Sales Drafts (each completed fully as described in Section 3.1), the first for a deposit and the second for payment of the balance upon delivery of the merchandise or the performance of the services. Visa: You must obtain an authorization for each Sales Draft on each transaction date. You must assign the separate authorization numbers to each Sales Draft, respectively. You must note on such Sales Drafts the words "delayed delivery," "deposit" or "balance," as appropriate, and the authorization dates and approval codes. MasterCard: For MasterCard transactions, you must obtain an Authorization for each Sales Draft on each Transaction date. You must note on both Sales Drafts the words "delayed delivery" "deposit" or "balance," as appropriate, and the authorization date and approval code. Discover Network: For Discover Network transactions, you must label one Sales Draft "deposit" and the other "balance," as appropriate. You shall submit Authorization requests you receive and ay. ait receipt of the Authorization Response prior to completing the Card sale. A positive Authorization Response will remain valid for thirty (30) calendar days from the date of the Authorization response for Card sales in the car rental industry, airline and passenger railway industries, the lodging industry and other travel MCCs including passenger transport and all International Card sales. A positive Authorization response will remain valid for ten (10) calendar days from the date of the Authorization response for Card sales in all other industries and MCCs. In addition, you must complete Address Verification at the time of the "balance" author- ization, and you must obtain proof of delivery upon delivery of the services /merchandise purchased. You may not submit sales data relating to the "balance" to us for processing until the merchandise /service purchased has been completely delivered. American Express: For American Express Card transactions. you must clearly disclose your intent and obtain written consent from the Cardholder to perform a delayed delivery transaction before you request an Authorization. You must obtain a separate Authorization Approval for each delayed delivery transaction on their respective Charge dates and clearly indicate on each record that the Charge is either for the deposit or for the balance of the transaction. You must submit the delayed delivery transaction record for the balance of the purchase only after the items have been shipped, provided or services rendered. For deposits, submission must be on the date the Cardholder agreed to pay for the deposit for the purchase. For balances, submission must be on the date the items are shipped, provided or services rendered. You must submit and Authorize each delayed delivery transaction under the same Merchant Account Number and treat deposits on the Card no differently than you treat deposits on all other payment products. Advance Payment Charges for American Express Transactions. An advance payment Charge is a Charge for which full payment is made in advance of you providing the goods and /or rending services to the Cardholder and such Charges carry higher risk. American Express may withhold settlement for part or all of such Charges until it is determined that the risk has diminished. You trust follow the procedures below if you offer Cardholders the option or require them to make advance payment Charges for the following types of goods and/or services: • Custom - orders (e.g., orders for goods to be manufactured to a customer's specifications) • Entertainment / ticketing (e.g., sporting events, concerts, season tickets). • Tuition, room and board, and other mandatory fees (e.g., library fees) of higher educational institutions. • Airline tickets, vehicle rentals, rail tickets, cruise line tickets, lodging, travel - related services (e.g., tours, guided expeditions). For an advance payment Charge, you must: State your full cancellation and refund policies, clearly disclose your intent and obtain written consent from the Cardholder to bill the Card for an advance payment Charge before you request an Authorization. The Cardholder's consent must include his or her agreement to all the terms of the sale (including price and any cancellation and refund policies), and a detailed description and the expected delivery date of the goods and/or services to be provided (including, if applicable, expected arrival and departure dates). • Complete a Sales Draft. If the advance payment Charge is a Card Not Present Charge, you must also: ensure that the Sales Draft contains the words "Advance Payment;" and within twenty -four (24) hours of the Charge being incurred, provide the Cardholder written confirmation (e.g., email or facsimile) of the advance payment Charge, the amount, the confirmation number (if applicable), a detailed description and expected delivery date of the goods and/or services to be provided (including expected arrival and departure dates, if applicable) and details of your cancellation/ refund policy. If you cannot deliver goods and/or services (e.g., because custom- ordered merchandise cannot be fulfilled), and if alternate arrangements cannot be made, you must immediately issue a Credit for the full amount of the advance payment Charge which cannot be fulfilled. In addition to other Chargeback rights, a Chargeback may be exercised for any disputed advance payment Charge or portion thereof if the dispute cannot be resolved in your favor based upon unambiguous terms contained in the terms of sale to which you obtained the Cardholder's written consent. 1.7. Recurring Transaction and Preauthorized Order Regulations. If you process recurring transactions and charge a Cardholder's account periodically for recurring goods or services (e.g., monthly insurance premiums, yearly subscriptions, annual membership fees, etc.), the Cardholder shall complete and deliver to you a Cardholder approval for such goods or services to be charged to his account. The approval must at least specify the Card- holder's name, address, account number and expiration date, the transaction amounts, the timing or frequency of recurring Charges and the duration of time for which the Card- holder's permission is granted. For Discover Network transactions, the approval must also include the total amount of recurring Charges to be billed to the Cardholder's account, including taxes and tips and your Merchant Account Number. If the recurring transaction is renewed, the Cardholder must complete and deliver to you a subsequent written request for the continuation of such goods or services to be charged to the Cardholder's account. You may not complete a recurring transaction after receiving a cancellation notice from the Cardholder or Issuer or after a request for authorization has been denied. If we or you have terminated this Agreement, you may not submit authorization requests or sales data for recurring transactions that are due after the termination date of this Agreement, and you must inform Cardholders for which you have submitted the recurring transactions that you no longer accept the Card. You must obtain an Authorization for each transaction and write "Recurring Transaction" (or, "P.O." for MasterCard transactions/ "Signature on File" for American Express trans- actions) on the Sales Draft in lieu of the Cardholder's signature. A positive authorization response for one recurring transaction Card Sale is not a guarantee that any future recurring transaction authorization request will be approved or paid. For all Discover recurring transactions, you should submit the 3 -digit CID with the first authorization request, but not subsequent authorization requests. Discover Network Card Organization Rules specifically require that you follow this CID procedure for Discover Network recurring transactions. Also, for Discover Network recurring transactions, the Sales Draft must include a general description of the transaction, your merchant name and a toll -free customer service number that the Cardholder may call to obtain customer assistance from you or to cancel the written approval for the recurring transaction. For American Express recurring transactions, you should periodically verify with Cardholders that their information (e.g., Card Number, expiration date, billing address) is still accurate. This will improve the likelihood of obtaining an approval to an Authorization request. The method to secure consent for recurring Charges must contain a disclosure that you may receive updated Card account information from the Issuer. You must retain evidence of consent to receive updated Card account information from the issuer for twenty -four (24) months from the date you submit the last recurring billing Charge. If you offer Cardholders the option to make recurring billing Charges, you must: • Ensure that your process for cancellation of recurring billing is simple and expeditious; • Clearly and conspicuously disclose all material terms of the option, including, if applicable, the fact that recurring billing will continue until the option is cancelled by the Cardholder; • Offer their American Express customers the option to receive written notification for the recurring transaction(s) at least (10) ten days prior to submitting, or any time the Charge FDSIS00B1805(ia) 9 amount exceeds a maximum amount that has been set by the Cardholder; • Within twenty -four (24) hours of incurring the first recurring billing Charge, provide the Cardholder written confirmation (e.g., email or facsimile) of such Charge, including all material terms of the option and details of your cancellation/refund policy; and • Where the material terms of the option change after submission of the first recurring billing Charge, promptly notify the Cardholder in writing of such change and obtain the Cardholder's express written consent to the new terms prior to submitting another recurring billing Charge. The cancellation of an American Express Card constitutes immediate cancellation of that Cardholder's consent for recurring Charges. American Express will not have any liability from such cancellation. If an American Express Card is cancelled or a Cardholder withdraws consent to recurring Charges, you are responsible for arranging another form of payment with the Cardholder. All recurring transactions or preauthorized orders may not include partial payments for goods or services purchased in a single transaction. You may not impose a finance charge in connection with a Recurring Transaction or Preauthorized Order. If you process recurring payment transactions, the Recurring Payment Indicator must be included in each authorization request, and as applicable, each Batch submission entry. Penalties can be assessed by the Card Organizations for failure to use the Recurring Payment Indicator. 1.8. Certain Rules and Requirements.

You may not make any cash disbursements or cash advances to a Cardholder as part of a Card transaction unless you are a financial institution with express authorization in writing in advance from Servicers. For Discover, cash advances in authorized jurisdictions other than the United States may be conducted in an originating currency provided that cash advances may be subject to dispute and/or Acquirer fees. 1.15. Discover Network Cash Over Transactions. Cash Over transactions are not available for MasterCard or Visa transactions. You may issue Cash Over in connection with a Discover Network Card sale, provided that you comply with the provisions of this Agreement, including the following requirements: • You must deliver to us a single authorization request for the aggregate total of the goods/ services purchase amount and the Cash Over amount of the Card sale. You may not submit separate authorization requests for the purchase amount and the Cash Over amount. • The Sales Draft must include both the purchase amount and the Cash Over amount, and you may not use separate Sales Drafts for the purchase amount and Cash Over amount. • Cash Over may only be offered with a Card Present Card Sale that includes a purchase of goods or services by the Cardholder. You must not issue Cash Over as a stand -alone transaction. Merchants that offer Cash Over may require the total amount of a Card Sale with a Credit product, including Cash Over, to meet a minimum transaction amount of up to $10.00. • You shall not assess or charge fees of any type or amount, including any surcharges, on Cash Over transactions. None of the fees or charges applicable to Cash Advances shall be applied to Cash Over transactions. • Cash Over may not be dispensed in connection with Credits, Cash Advances, or any Card Sale for which you are unable to electronically capture Track Data using the POS Device. • The maximum amount of cash that you may issue as Cash Over is $100.00. (Cash Over may not be available its certain markets. Contact us for further information). 1.16. Telecommunication Transactions. Telecommunication Card Sales occur when a telephone service provider is paid directly using a Card for individual local or long- distance telephone calls. (NOTE: Pre -paid telephone service cards are not and do not give rise to Telecommunication Card Sales). Prior to conducting Telecommunication transactions you must contact us for approval and further instructions, rules and requirements. Failure to do so could result in additional charges or termination of this Agreement. 2. Suspect Transactions If the appearance of the Card being presented or the behavior of the person presenting the Card is suspicious in nature, you must immediately call the Voice Authorization Center and ask to speak to a Code 10 operator. Answer all their questions and follow their instructions. While not proof that a transaction is fraudulent, the following are some suggestions to assist you in preventing fraudulent transactions that could result in a Chargeback: Ask yourself, does the Customer: • appear nervous/agitated/hurried? • appear to be making indiscriminate purchases (e.g., does not care how much an item costs, the size, etc.)? • make purchases substantially greater than your usual customer (e.g., your average transaction is $60, but this transaction is for $360)? • insist on taking the merchandise immediately (e.g., no matter how difficult it is to handle, is not interested in free delivery, alterations, etc.)? FDSIS00B1805(ia) • appear to be purchasing an unusual amount of expensive items or the same items? • take an unusual amount of time to sign the Sales Draft, or look at the back of the Card as he signs? • talk fast or carry on a conversation to distract you from checking the signature? • take the Card from a pocket instead of a wallet? • repeatedly come back, in a short amount of time or right before closing time, to make additional purchases? • cause an unusual, sudden increase in the number and average sales transactions over a one -to three -day period? • tell you he has been having some problems with his Issuer and request that you call a number (that he provides) for a "special" handling or authorization? • have a previous history of disputed Charges? • place orders to be shipped to an address other than the billing address, or use anonymous/ free email domains? • place orders sent to zip codes or countries where you show a history of fraudulent claims? • frequently make purchases and then return goods for cash? • use a prepaid Card to purchase other prepaid Cards? • use a large numbers of prepaid Cards to make purchases? Does the Card: • have characters the same size, height, style and all within alignment? • appear to be re- embossed (the original numbers or letters may be detected on the back of the Card)? • have a damaged hologram? • have a Magnetic Stripe on the back on the Card? • have an altered Magnetic Stripe? • have an altered signature panel (e.g., appear discolored, glued or painted, or show erasure marks on the surface)? • have "valid from" (effective) and "valid thru" (expiration) dates consistent with the sale date? If you use an electronic terminal and swipe the Card, make sure the account number displayed on the terminal and/or the Sales Draft matches the number on the Card. If you cannot or do not verify the account number and accept the sale, you are subject to a Chargeback and could be debited for the amount of the transaction. IF THE NUMBERS DO NOT MATCH, DO NOT ACCEPT THE CARD AS A FORM OF PAYMENT, EVEN THOUGH AN AUTHORIZATION CODE FOR THE MAGNETICALLY SWIPED CARD NUMBER MAY BE RECEIVED. Fraud -Prone Merchandise Tips: • Gift Cards, jewelry, video, stereo, computer and camera equipment, shoes, and men's clothing are typically fraud -prone because they can easily be resold. • Be suspicious of high dollar amounts and transactions with more than one fraud -prone item, e.g., two VCRs, three gold chains, etc. If you suspect fraud: • Call the Voice Authorization Center and ask to speak to a Code 10 operator. • If the terminal does not display the Card number, call the POS Help Desk for terminal assistance. REMEMBER: AN AUTHORIZATION CODE ONLY INDICATES THE AVAILABILITY OF A CARDHOLDER'S CREDIT AT THE TIME OF THE TRANSACTION. IT DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE PERSON PRESENTING THE CARD IS THE RIGHTFUL CARDHOLDER. IF PROPER PROCEDURES ARE NOT FOLLOWED AT THE TIME OF THE TRANSACTION, YOU ARE SUBJECT TO A CHARGEBACK AND YOUR ACCOUNT MAY BE DEBITED FOR THE AMOUNT OF THE TRANSACTION. You must prepare a Sales Draft or Credit Draft, as applicable, for each Card transaction and provide a copy of it or a transaction receipt or copy of the Draft to the Cardholder at the time the Card transaction is completed. 3.1. Information Required. All of the following information must be contained on a single page document constituting a Sales Draft: • Cardholder's account number must appear on the Credit Draft or Sales Draft in the manner required by applicable law and Card Organization Rules, NOTE: The copy of the Sales Draft or Credit Draft you provide to a Cardholder must not include the Cardholder's Card expiration date or any more than the last four digits of the Cardholder's Card number. Some states have similar requirements that also apply to the Sales Drafts or Credit Drafts you retain. MasterCard requires that Card expiration dates be excluded from the Sales Drafts or Credit Drafts your business retains. You are solely responsible to determine the Card account number truncation requirements and Card expiration date exclusion requirements for your state/jurisdiction; • Clear imprint of the Card. Whenever the term "imprint" is used it refers to the process of using a manual imprinting machine to make an impression of the Card on the same side of a signed Sales Draft; it does not include the printout from a printer attached to an electronic device. If you use a device (e.g., authorization/draft capture terminal, cash register, POS Device, etc.) to electronically capture the card information (magnetic swipe, chip or contactless data), you do not have to imprint the Card. HOWEVER, IF THE ATTENDED POS DEVICE FAILS TO READ THE MAGNETIC STRIPE OR IF YOU ARE REQUIRED TO OBTAIN A VOICE AUTHORIZATION, THEN YOU MUST IMPRINT THE CARD. IN ADDITION, THE SALES DRAFT MUST HAVE THE CARDHOLDER'S SIGNATURE. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE PROCEDURES WILL PREVENT YOU FROM DEFENDING A TRANSACTION IN THE EVENT THAT IT 1S CHARGED BACK UNDER A CLAIM THAT THE RIGHTFUL CARDHOLDER DID NOT AUTHORIZE THE PURCHASE. ENTERING INFORMATION INTO A TERMINAL MANUALLY WILL NOT PREVENT THIS TYPE OF CHARGEBACK. FOR MAIL, TELEPHONE, INTERNET AND OTHER CARD NOT PRESENT ORDERS SEE SECTION 3.2; IF THE PHYSICAL CARD IS NOT PRESENT ANOTHER FORM OF PAYMENT MUST BE REQUESTED; • Cardholder's signature. However, eligible merchants participating in MasterCard's Quick Payment Service Program, Visa's No Signature Required Program, American Express No Signature Program, and Discover Network's No Signature Program, and/or certain Discover Network transactions (see note below) are not required to obtain the Cardholder's signature under certain conditions set forth by each program; • Date of the transaction; • Amount of the transaction (including the approved currency of the sale); • Description of the goods and/or services involved in the transaction (if there are too many items, combine them into one description; e.g., "clothing" instead of 'one pair of pants, one shirt "). Do not carry information onto a second Sales Draft; • Description of your merchandise return and Credit/refund policy; • A valid authorization code; and • Merchant's Doing Business As ( "D/B /A ") name and location (city and state required) and Merchant Account Number. When imprinting Sales Drafts, do not alter the Cardholder account number, circle or underline any information on the Sales Draft or alter a Sales Draft in any way after the transaction has been completed and signed. Stray marks and other alterations on a Sales Draft may render it electronically unscannable, unreadable or illegible. This may result in a Chargeback or Summary Adjustment to your account. For Discover Network sales using a paper Sales Draft (as opposed to Electronic Draft Capture), the paper Sales Draft must also contain the initials of your representative or employee that conducted the transaction. For Discover Network Credits, the Credit Draft must contain the signature of your authorized representative or employee that conducted the transaction. Discover Card Sales in an amount more than $50.00 including sales taxes, tip, surcharge and/or Cash Over amount are not eligible for treatment as No Signature Card Sales and you may lose a dispute of such a Card Sale if the Merchant fails to obtain the Cardholder's Signature on the Sales Draft. Eligible merchants participating in Visa Easy Payment Service ( "VEPS ") (Visa's No Signature Required Program), Quick Payment Service and/or Small Ticket are only required to provide the Cardholder with the completed Sales Draft when requested by the Cardholder. NOTE: For Visa, MasterCard and Discover Network transactions, if you are a merchant operating under certain merchant category codes ( "MCC ") approved by Visa, MasterCard and Discover Network, you are not required to obtain the Cardholder's signature so long as the full track data is transmitted in the authorization request and the sale amount is below the applicable program floor limit (MasterCard/Discover /American Express is $50 or less. Visa's program limit remains at $25 or less excluding U.S. grocery stores (MCC 5411) and discount stores (MCC 5310) where the limit has been raised to $50. For MasterCard, if you are operating vending machines under MCC 5499 (Miscellaneous Food Stores - Convenience Stores, Markets, Specialty Stores), you need not provide a receipt at the time a transaction is conducted. If a vending machine cannot provide a printed receipt, you must disclose and post instructions advising customers how a receipt may be obtained. Sales Drafts forAmerican Express Transactions. You must create a Sales Draft for every Charge. For each Charge submitted electronically, you must create an electronically reproducible Sales Draft. The Sales Draft (and a copy of the customer's receipt) must disclose your return and/or cancellation policies. If the Cardholder wants to use different Cards for payment of a purchase, you may create a separate Sales Draft for each Card used. However, if the Cardholder is using a single Card for payment of a purchase, you shall not divide the purchase into more than one Charge, nor shall you create more than one Sales Draft. • Submit the Charge to American Express directly, or through your Processor, for payment. • Retain the original Sales Draft (as applicable) and all documents evidencing the Charge, or reproducible records thereof, for the timeframe listed in our country- specific policies. • Provide a copy of the Sales Draft to the Cardholder. You may be able to create more than one Sales Draft if the purchase qualifies for a delayed delivery Charge. The retention time frame for Sales Drafts is twenty -four (24) months from the date you submitted the corresponding Charge to us. Pursuant to applicable law, truncate the Card number and do not print the Card's expiration date on the copies of Sales Drafts delivered to Cardholders. Truncated Card number digits must be masked with replacement characters such as "x," " *" or " #," and not blank spaces or numbers. If you submit Charges on paper, you trust create a Sales Draft containing all of the following required data: • Full Card number and expiration date (pursuant to applicable law), and if available, Cardholder name. • The date the Charge was incurred. • The amount of the Charge, which must be the total price for the purchase of goods and services (plus applicable taxes and gratuities) purchased on the Card. FDSISOOB1805(ia) 12 • A clear description of the goods or services purchased by the Cardholder. • An imprint or other descriptor of you name, address, Merchant Account Number and, if applicable, store number. • The words "no refunds' if you have a no refund policy, and you return and/or cancellation policies. American Express No Signature. You may participate in the American Express No Signature Program. This No Signature Program allows establishments not to request a signature from Cardholders on the Sales Draft. To qualify for the No Signature Program, both the establishment and each Charge must meet the following criteria: Establishment Criteria. If your establishment is classified in an industry that accepts in- person Charges, then the establishment may participate in the No Signature Program with the exception of the following categories: • Merchants who do not conduct in- person Charges (i.e., internet, mail order or telephone order). • Prohibited transactions as set forth in Section 14.4 or illegal transactions or activity, as described in Section 38.2. • High Risk Merchants (e.g., establishments whose business type has had historically high occurrences of fraud and disputed charges with American Express or as compared to other similarly situated merchants (or both); examples include internet electronic services or nightclubs/lounges) as determined by American Express in its sole discretion. • Merchants placed in our Fraud Full Recourse Program. Charge Criteria: • The amount or Charge must meet the threshold established in American Express' country specific policy. • The Charge Submission must include the appropriate indicator to reflect that the Card and the Cardholder were present at the point of sale. • The Charge Submission must include a valid approval. Under the No Signature Program, Chargebacks will not be exercised for such Charges based solely on the establishment's failure to obtain the Cardholder's signature at the point of sale. If a disproportionate amount or a number of disputed Charges under the No Signature Program occur, you must cooperate to reduce the amount or number of disputed Charges. If such efforts fail, ),on may be placed in American Express Chargeback programs (see American Express Card Organization Rules regarding "chargeback programs "), or your establishment's participation in the No Signature Program may be modified or terminated. The established threshold for charges to qualify under the No Signature Program is $50.00 or less. 3.2. Mail / Telephone / Internet (Ecommerce) Orders and Other Card Not Present Sales. You may only engage in maiUtelephone /Internet orders provided they do not exceed the percentage of your total payment Card volume reflected on your Application. Failure to adhere to this requirement may result in cancellation of your Agreement. Merchants conducting Internet transactions using MasterCard or Visa Cards must have special codes (an "Electronic Commerce Indicator ") added to their authorization and settlement records. Discover Network does not use an Electronic Commerce Indicator. Failure to register as a merchant conducting Internet transactions can result in fines imposed by the Card Organizations. Mail, Telephone, Internet and other Card Not Present transactions have a substantially higher risk of Chargehack. Since you will not have an imprinted or magnetically swiped transaction and you will not have the Cardholder's signature on the Sales Draft as you would in a face -to -face transaction, you will assume all risk associated with accepting a mail/telephone/ Internet or other Card Not Present transaction. The following procedures, while they will not eliminate Chargebacks, are useful in reducing them and should be followed by you: • Obtain the expiration date of Card. • On the Sales Draft, clearly print the Cardholder's account number; effective and expiration dates; date of transaction; description of the goods and services; amount of the transaction (including shipping, handling, insurance, etc.); Cardholder's name, billing address and shipping address; authorization code; and merchant's name and address (city and state required); provided, that you must effect PAN Truncation, and must not include the expiration date, on the copy of the Sales Daft or Credit Draft that you provide to the Cardholder, or as required by applicable law, the Sales Draft or Credit Draft you retain. • For mail orders, write "MO "; for telephone orders, write "TO" on the Cardholder's signature line. • If feasible, obtain and keep a copy of the Cardholder's signature on file on a form authorizing you to submit telephone and mail order transactions. • You should utilize the Address Verification Service for all Card Not Present Transactions (see note below). Address Verification is specifically required for all Discover Network Card Not Present Transactions. If you do not receive a positive match through AVS, you may not process the Discover Network Card Not Present Transaction. if you do not have AVS, contact us immediately. • You should obtain the 3- or 4 digit Card Validation Code number and include it with each authorization request. Discover Network Card Organization Rules specifically require that you submit the Card Validation Code with the authorization request for all Discover Network Card Not Present Transactions. • For telephone orders, it is recommended that written verification of the sale be requested from the Cardholder (sent by mail or fax). • You may not submit a transaction for processing until after the merchandise has been shipped or the service has been provided to the customer. (The Card Organizations will permit the immediate billing of merchandise manufactured to the customer's specifications [i.e., special/custom orders] provided the Cardholder has been advised of the billing details.) • You should provide a copy of the Sales Draft to the Cardholder at the time of delivery You must also obtain proof of delivery of the goods or services to the address designated by the Cardholder (i.e., by getting a signature of the Cardholder or person designated by the Cardholder through the delivery carrier). If the Cardholder visits one of your locations to receive the goods or services purchased, obtain an imprint of the card and the Cardholder's signature. • Notify the Cardholder of delivery time frames and special handling and/or cancellation policies. Merchandise shipping dates must be within seven (7) days of the date authorization was obtained. If, after the order has been taken, additional delays will be incurred (e.g., out of stock), notify the Cardholder. If you have not shipped the product by the seventh day, you must reverse the original authorization then reauthorize the transaction. • You may not require a Cardholder to complete a postcard or other document that displays the Cardholder's account number in clear view when mailed. • If you accept orders via the Internet, your web site must include the following information in a prominent manner: — Complete description of the goods or services offered; —Description of your merchandise return and Credit/refund policy; — Customer service contact, including email address and/or telephone number; — Transaction currency (U.S. dollars, unless permission is otherwise received from Servicers); — Any applicable export or legal restrictions; — Delivery policy; — Consumer data privacy policy; — A description of the transaction security used on your website; — The sale or disclosure of databases containing Cardholder account numbers, personal information, or other Card transaction information to third parties is prohibited; — Your identity at all points of interaction with the Cardholder; — Address of merchant including country; — Cancellation policy; and — Date any free trial period ends. • You may not accept Card Account Numbers through Electronic Mail over the Internet. NOTE: AVS (and other fraud mitigation tools such as Verified by Visa, MasterCard Secure Code, CVN'2, CVC2 and CID verification) does not guarantee against Chargebacks, but used properly, it assists you in reducing the risk of fraud by confirming whether certain elements of the billing address provided by your customer match the billing address maintained by the Issuer. AVS also may help you avoid incurring additional interchange expenses. AVS is a separate process from obtaining an Authorization and will provide a separate response. A transaction may not match addresses when submitted for AVS and still receive an Authorization. It is your responsibility to monitor the AVS responses and use the information provided to avoid high -risk transactions. American Express Internet Charges. Processing a Card Not Present Charge for American Express Transactions you must: • Submit the Charge to American Express; For Card Not Present Charges, you must create a Sales Draft and ask the Cardholder to provide: • Card number; • Card expiration date; In addition, it is recommended that you ask for: • Name as it appears on the Card, • Cardholder's billing address, and • Ship -to address, if different from the billing address. American Express will not Chargeback for such charges based solely upon a Card - member claim that he or she did not receive the disputed goods if you have: • Verified the address to which the goods were shipped was the Cardholder's full billing address. • Provided proof of delivery signed by the Cardholder or an authorized signer of the Card indicating the delivery of the goods or services to the Card- member's full billing address. American Express will not be liable for actual or alleged fraudulent transactions over the internet and will have the right to Chargeback for those charges. For Internet Orders, you must: • Use any separate merchant numbers (seller ID) established for your internet orders in all of your requests for Authorization and Submission of charges. • Provide us with at least one (1) month's prior written notice of any change in your internet address. • Comply with any additional requirements that American Express provides from time to FDSIS0081805(ia) 13 time. Additionally, if a disputed Charge arises involving a Card Not Present Charge that is an internet electronic delivery Charge, American Express may exercise Chargeback for the full amount of the Charge and place you in any of its Chargeback programs. 3.2.1. Discover Network Protocol for InternetTransactions. Each Internet Discover Network Card transaction accepted by you and submitted to us shall comply with Discover Network standards, including, without limitation, Discover Network standards governing the formatting, transmission and encryption of data, referred to as the "designated protocol." You shall accept only those Internet Discover Network Card transactions that are encrypted in accordance with the designated protocol. As of the date of these Operating Procedures, the designated protocol for the encryption of data is Secure Socket Layer (SSL). We may, at our discretion, withhold Settlement until security standards can be verified. However, the designated protocol, including any specifications with respect to data encryption, may change at any time upon thirty (30) days adn ance written notice. You shall not accept any Internet Discover Network Card transaction unless the transaction is sent by means of a browser which supports the designated protocol. 3.3.

Data Security THE FOLLOWING IS IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING THE PROTECTION OF CARDHOLDER DATA. PLEASE REVIEW CAREFULLY AS FAILURE TO COMPLY CAN RESULT IN SUBSTANTIAL FINES AND LIABILITIES FOR UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE AND TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT. 4.1. Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS). Visa, MasterCard, Discover Network, JCB and American Express aligned data security requirements to create a global standard for the protection of Cardholder data. The resulting Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS) defines the requirements with which all entities that store, process, or transmit payment card data must comply. PCI DSS is the name used to identify those common data security requirements. The Cardholder Information Security Program (CISP) is Visa USA's data security program, the Site Data Protection (SDP) program is MasterCard's data security program, Discover Network Information Security and Compliance (DISC) is Discover Network's data security program, and the Data Security Operating Policy (DSOP) is American Express' data security program, each based on the PCI DSS and industry aligned validation requirements. PCI DSS compliance validation is focused on Merchant Equipment (as defined below) where Cardholder data is processed, stored or transmitted, including: • All external connections into your network (i.e., employee remote access, third party access for processing, and maintenance); • All connections to and from the authorization and settlement environment (i.e., connections for employee access or for devices such as firewalls, and routers); and • Any data repository outside of the authorization and settlement environment. For the purposes of this Section 4, "Merchant Equipment" means any and all equipment you use in connection with Card authorization, clearing, completing, settling, transmitting or other related processing, including, without limitation, all telecommunication lines and wireless connections and software, systems, point -of -sale terminals, card readers, merchandise and card scanners, printers, PIN pad devices and other hardware, whether owned by you, Merchant Providers or other Persons used by you. The Card Organizations or we may impose fines or penalties, or restrict you from accepting Cards if it is determined that you are not compliant with the applicable data security requirements. We may in our sole discretion, suspend or terminate Services under this Agreement for any actual or suspected data security compromise. You agree that you will not request any Authorizations, submit any Sales Drafts or Credit Drafts until you have read and understood the PCI DSS, CISP, SDP and DISC for which you acknowledge we have provided you sufficient information to obtain, and you will be deemed to have done so upon our receipt of your request or submission of any Authorizations, Sales Drafts or Credit Drafts. You must comply with the data security requirements described in this Section 4.1, including, without limitation, PCI DSS, SDP, CISP, DSOP and DISC, and any additional Card Organization requirements applicable to payment applications and PIN transactions.

You shall provide such information as soon as practicable, and the items listed in (i) -(v) shall be provided to us in any event within 48 hours of your initial notification to us of the breach. 4.7. Merchant Providers. The data security standards set forth in this Section 4 also apply to Merchant Providers. Before you engage any Merchant Provider, you must provide to us in writing (a) the Merchant Provider's legal name, (b) contact information, and (c) intended function. You acknowledge and agree that you will not use, or provide Cardholder data access to, any Merchant Provider until you receive our approval and, if required, confirmation of our registration of that Merchant Provider with applicable Card Organ- izations.

Your use of the Services, equipment, software, systems, materials, supplies or resources of third parties regarding your Card transactions processing, including, without limitation, Merchant Providers and any third party lessors or licensors, will not affect your obligations under this Agreement to us which will apply to the same extent as if you had not used them. We have no liability or responsibility to you or others regarding these third parties, even if we referred them to you. These third parties are your agents, and you are solely responsible for (i) determining whether they can meet your needs and standards, (ii) their actions, inactions and compliance with the terms of this Agreement and the Card Organization Rules and (iii) any and all fees, costs, expenses and other obligations owed to them by you or owed by them to us or to Card Organizations. 4.8. Noncompliance Fees. If we have not received receipt of your validation of comp- liance with your PCI DSS standards within the first 90 days of the date of the Agreement, you will be charged a monthly non - receipt of PCI Validation fee as set forth in the App- lication or as otherwise communicated to you, for the period beginning upon expiration of the 90 day period, until such time as you are compliant or this Agreement is terminated, whichever comes first. This monthly non - receipt of PCI Validation fee is in addition to any and all other fees for which you are responsible related to your failure to be compliant as required hereunder. 4.9. Costs. If you or a Merchant Provider (or other Person used by you) are determined by any Card Organization, regardless of any forensic analysis or report, to be the likely source of any loss, disclosure, theft or compromise of Cardholder data or Card transaction information, or caused Cardholder data to be put at risk (together, "Compromised Data Events ") and regardless of your belief that you have complied with the Card Organization Rules or any other security precautions and are not responsible for the Compromised Data Event, you must promptly pay us for all related expenses, claims, assessments, fines, losses, costs, and penalties and Issuer reimbursements imposed by the Card Organizations against us (together, "Data Compromise Losses ").

S. Authorizations Each authorization request you submit to us must fully comply with the applicable provisions of this Agreement. Submission of an authorization request that does not fully comply may result in assessment of additional fees to you, a declined authorization response or a Chargeback to you. An Authorization Approval Code only indicates the availability of Credit on an account at the time the Authorization is requested. It does not guarantee or warrant that the person presenting the Card is the rightful Cardholder, the Charge is in fact valid or bona fide, nor is it a promise or guarantee that you will be paid for the Charge and not be subject to a Chargeback. You must obtain an Authorization Approval Code from us (or as authorized, pursuant to Section 5.4) for all transactions. A positive authorization response for MasterCard remains valid for seven (7) days for electronic processed transactions. A positive authorization response for Visa will remain valid for thirty (30) calendar days from the date the Issuer provides the Authorization response for Card Sales in the car rental Industry, airline and passenger railway industries, the lodging industry, and other travel MCCs including passenger transport and ten (10) days from the date of the Authorization response for Card Sales by Merchants in all other industries and MCCs. A positive Authorization response for Discover Network transactions remains valid for ten (10) days for Non T &E transactions and thirty (30) days for T &E transactions. A positive Authorization response for American Express Non T &E transactions are good for seven (7) days, American Express T&E transactions are good for thirty (30) days. Failure to obtain an Authorization Approval Code for a sales transaction may result in a Chargeback and/or the termination of your Agreement. Authorization Approval Codes can be obtained through your POS Terminal or a Voice Response Unit ( "VRIJ ). Any fees related to authorizations will be charged per each request for an Authorization Approval Code, whether or not the transaction is approved. Do not attempt to obtain an Authorization Approval Code provided by someone other than us except as described in Section 5.4. If a Cardholder or another service provider provides you with either an authorization number or with a telephone number for obtaining authorizations, the Authorization Approval Code you receive may not be valid. Even if the transaction is initially processed and funded, it may be charged back at a later date. Also, if you receive a purported Authorization Approval Code from someone other than us, we will not have the supporting records and will be unable to verify that you received the authorization if that is later questioned in a Chargeback. If you obtain Address Verification, you must review the AVS response separately from the authorization response and make your own decision about whether to accept the transaction. A transaction can receive an Authorization Approval Code from the Issuer even if AVS is unavailable or reflects that the address provided to you does not match the billing address on file at the Issuer. If the authorized Cardholder disputes such a transaction, you will be responsible for the resulting Chargeback. If you receive a Referral response to an attempted authorization, you may not submit the transaction without calling for and receiving a voice authorization. After receiving a Referral response you may not attempt another authorization on the same Card through your POS Terminal.. If you fail to obtain an Authorization Approval Code or if you submit a Card transaction after receiving a decline (even if a subsequent authorization attempt results in an Authorization Approval Code), your transaction may result in a Chargeback and may be assessed fines or fees by the Card Organizations for which you will be responsible. These currently range from $25 to $150 per transaction. To avoid these costs and related Chargebacks, always obtain an Authorization Approval Code directly from your terminal before submitting a transaction for settlement. You may not attempt to obtain multiple authorizations for a single transaction. If a sale is declined, do not take alternative measures with the same Card to obtain an approval of the sale from other authorization sources. Instead, request another form of payment. If you accept and process a transaction that was declined, or attempt multi - transactions and/or multi- authorizations, you are subject to a Chargeback, Card Organization fines and/or cancellation of your Agreement. Do not discuss reason for decline with a Cardholder rather refer them to the customer service number on the back of the Card. For Visa, MasterCard and Discover transactions, automated fuel dispensers must ensure that completion messages are submitted for such Card transactions within 60 minutes of the Authorization. For Discover transactions, Merchants operating in the petroleum industry that conduct Card Sales at Automated Fuel Dispensers (AFDs), may submit an Authorization Request for $1.00 to verify the validity of the Card presented. Under such circumstances, you must submit an Authorization Advice Message for the actual amount of the Card Sale within sixty (60) minutes of completion of fuel delivery regardless of whether you previously received a Partial Authorization Response or a positive Authorization Response for any other amount. If you do not complete the Card Sale following receipt of an approved Authorization Response for an), amount, a request to cancel the Authorization Request must be submitted within sixty (60) minutes of the completion of fuel delivery. 5.1. Card Not PresentTransactions. You must obtain the 3- or 4 digit Card Validation Code (CVV2, CVC2, CID) and submit this Code with all authorization requests with respect to transactions where the Card is not present (e.g,, telephone, mail or internet sales). However, for recurring transaction authorizations you should submit the Card Validation Code with the first authorization request only, and not with subsequent recurring transaction authorization requests. (See Section 1.7). NOTE: For each Card Not Present Discover Network transaction, you must also verify the name and billing address of the Discover Network Cardholder using the Address Verification System (AVS), and if you do not receive a positive match, do not process the Discover Network Card Not Present transaction. 5.2. Authorization viaTelephone (OtherThanTerminal /Electronic Device Users). • Call your designated voice authorization toll free number and enter the authorization information into the VRU using a touch tone phone or hold for an authorization representative. • If advised to pickup a Card, use reasonable and peaceful means to do so, and do not take any action that will alarm or embarrass the Card presenter. You will bear all responsibility for claims, liabilities, costs and expenses as a result of any action by you, your employees, vendors or agents, that attempt to retain a Card without the Issuer's direct request or failure to use reasonable, lawful means in retaining or attempting to retain the Card. Forward the Card to: Attn: Rewards Department, P.O. Box 5019, Hagerstown, MD 21740. You may be paid a reward for the return of the Card. • On occasion, the Authorization Center will ask you to obtain identification from the Cardholder before issuing an approval code. If you are instructed to do so, clearly write the appropriate identification source and numbers in the space provided on the Sales Draft unless otherwise prohibited by law. • If the sale is declined, please remember that our operators are only relaying a message from the Issuer. The fact that a sale has been declined should not be interpreted as a reflection of the Cardholder's creditworthiness. The Cardholder should be instructed to call the Issuer. 5.3. Authorization via Electronic Devices. • If you use an electronic terminal to obtain an Authorization Approval Code, all sales should be authorized through this equipment. Authorizations through other methods will result in additional charges to you. • If your terminal malfunctions, refer to your Quick Reference Guide, if necessary, or call the POS Help Desk. The problem will either be corrected promptly or may require terminal programming or replacement. During the period in which your terminal is not functioning, remember to check it periodically since most terminal problems are temporary in nature and are quickly corrected. • If a terminal is moved or if wires are disconnected, causing malfunction, call the POS Help Desk immediately and follow their instructions. You may be responsible for any service charges incurred for reactivation of the terminal. • Until the terminal becomes operable, you must call your designated voice authorization toll free number and enter authorization information into the VRU using a touchtone phone. During this time, each transaction must be imprinted using a manual Imprinter machine. Failure to obtain an Authorization Approval Code and to imprint these transactions could result in a Chargeback to your account. 5.4. Third Party Authorization System. If you have contracted with another author- ization network to obtain Credit Card authorization, i.e., your terminal can Split Dial, liability resulting from discrepancies with that network must be resolved between you and that network. We will not research Chargebacks resulting from Authorization Approval Codes obtained from another authorization service organization. Such Chargebacks will be passed through to you for resolution. If an authorization provided by a third party authorization system is challenged in a Chargeback, you must obtain proof (e.g., third party authorization loizs) from the authorization source and submit it to us within the time frame FDSISOOB1805(ia) Is specified on the Chargeback documentation. IF YOU CONTRACTED TO USE ONE OF OUR AUTHORIZATION SERVICES, DO NOT USE ANOTHER THIRD PARTY SYSTEM WITHOUT NOTIFYING CUSTOMER SERVICE. OTHERWISE, WE WILL BE UNABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY RESEARCH AND DEFEND ANY AUTHORIZATION RELATED CHARGEBACKS ON YOUR BEHALF. THIS DELAY WILL SIGNIFICANTLY DECREASE YOUR TIME TO RESEARCH AND PROVIDE PROOF OF AUTHORIZATION, THUS REDUCING YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO REVERSE A CHARGEBACK. If you utilize another authorization network, you will be responsible for the downgrade of any transactions to a higher cost interchange that result from a mismatch of information to our systems and those of third party authorization networks (see Section 19.1). If you use a third party authorization network, you must also comply with Section 4.7. Call the following for other Card types: American Express /ESA or Direct 1 -800- 528 -5200 JCB, International 1- 800 -522 -9345 (ForYEN and CAD currency only) TeleCheck 1 -800- 366 -50 I 0 Voyager 1 -800- 987 -6589 WEX 1- 800 -842 -0071 Available 24 hours /day; 7 days /week. All approved sales authorized in this manner must be entered manually as "post authorization" transactions into the terminal, once the terminal becomes operational. All Credit transactions must be entered into the terminal for data capture. You may be subject to a Chargeback if you receive a Referral and subsequently receive an approval. To reduce the risk of such a Chargeback, the Card should be imprinted using a manual Imprinter machine. (For specific procedures on Electronic Data Capture, refer to the Terminal Operating Instructions/Users Guide.) If the terminal malfunctions for more than twenty- four (24) hours, contact Customer Service for further instructions on processing your transactions. 5.5. Automated Dispensing Machines. Records must be produced for all transactions whose origin and data capture are automated dispensing machines or Limited Amount Terminals. Records should include the Cardholder account number, merchant's name, terminal location, transaction date and amount. 5.6. Pre - Authorization forT &E (Travel & Entertainment) and Restaurant Merch- ants. If you are a business engaged in providing travel and/or entertainment services (e.g., car rentals, hotels, motels, etc.) or a restaurant business, and engage in the practice of "pre - Authorization" you must comply with the following general procedures: • A hotel, motel, or car rental merchant may obtain an estimated Visa, MasterCard or Discover Network authorization at the time of check -in or reservation. • Restaurants must not add an estimated tip amount to the authorization request beyond the value of the goods provided, or services rendered, plus any applicable tax. • You must notify the Cardholder of the dollar amount you intend to "Pre- Authorize." • if the customer decides to use another form of payment (e.g., cash, check, etc.) you must promptly call the Voice Authorization Response Unit to delete the authorization hold. Provide the Cardholder's account number, original dollar amount and date of the trans- action, and the authorization code. If a new transaction takes place, a new imprinted and signed Sales Draft for the exact amount and a new authorization code for that amount must be obtained. • VEHICLE RENTAL PROVIDERS MAY NOT INCLUDE POTENTIAL VEHICLE DAMAGE OR INSURANCE DEDUCTIBLES IN ANY PREAUTHORIZATIONS. • If you receive a decline on a transaction, you must wait twenty -four (24) hours before attempting to reauthorize. If you reauthorize prior to this time frame and receive an approval, you may be subject to a Chargeback and a fine imposed by the Card Organizations. • Hotels, motels, and car rental merchants are allowed up to a 15% variance above the amount authorized. If the final amount charged to the Cardholder exceeds the original estimate by more than 150k, above the preauthorization, you must authorize any additional amounts, and all incremental authorization codes must be written in the authorization area along with the date of authorization and the amount authorized. • Pre - Authorization for certain establishments, are allowed up to a 20 %, (instead of 15 %) variance above the amount authorized. If the final amount exceeds the amount "preauthorized" by more than 204 %, you must authorize the additional amount. Estimating the Authorization amount to include a tip is prohibited. The authorization request should include only the amount associated with the bill presented to the consumer. • You should obtain an authorization for the initial estimated charges and then monitor the charges to ensure that the actual charges made do not exceed the estimated charges. If the actual charges exceed the amount of the initial estimated authorization (and any subsequent estimated authorizations), then you must secure a positive authorization for the additional amount. NOTE: Subsequent authorizations should only be for the additional amount of total charges and not include amounts already authorized. • The estimated amount of an), pre- authorization for lodging accommodations must be based on (i) the intended length of stay; (ii) the room rate; (iii) applicable taxes and service charges; and (iv) other miscellaneous charges as dictated by experience. • If an authorization request is declined, no charges occurring after that date will be accented for that Cardholder. • You do not need to obtain a final authorization if the total sum of charges (the final amount) does not exceed 20% of the previously authorized charges. You must record the dates, authorized amounts, and their respective Authorization Approval Codes on the Sales Draft(s). 5.7. Discover Network Procedure for Request for Cancellation of Authorization. If a Discover Network Card sale is cancelled or the amount of the transaction changes following your receipt of authorization for the sale, you must call your Authorization Center directly and request a cancellation of the authorization. An authorization may be cancelled at any time within ten (10) days of your receipt of the authorization, but must be cancelled before the sales data relating to the transaction is submitted to us, after which the authorization cannot be changed. For an authorization cancellation, you must provide us with the following information, in this order: • The Discover Network Merchant Account Number used in the authorization; • The Card number; • The original amount of the authorization being cancelled; • The new amount of the total transaction (if any); • The original authorization code for the authorization being cancelled; • The expiration date of the Card; and • A brief reason for the authorization cancellation. 5.8. Partial Authorization and Authorization Reversal. Partial authorization provides an alternative to a declined transaction by permitting an Issuer to return an authorization approval for a partial amount, an amount less than the transaction amount requested by the merchant when the available card balance is not sufficient to approve the transaction in full. The Cardholder is able to use up the remaining funds on the card and select another form of payment (i.e., another payment card, cash, check) for the remaining balance of the transaction. For MasterCard transactions, partial authorization is optional for batch auth- orized e- commerce transactions, mail order, telephone order transactions and recurring payment transactions. For Discover transactions, partial Authorization support is optional for Card Not Present transactions. if you support partial authorizations, a partial auth- orization indicator must be included in each authorization request. it is a requirement for all U.S. and U.S. Territory merchants that provide cash -back at Point of Sale to support Visa Partial Authorization. An authorization reversal must he submitted if the authorization is no longer needed, a partial amount of the total authorized is submitted for the settled transaction, or the Cardholder elects not to complete the purchase. The transaction sent for settlement must he no more than the amount approved in the partial authorization response. In the event that you wish to support the partial authorization functionality, you trust contact Processor for additional rules and requirements. An authorization reversal may only be submitted if the transaction has not settled. Once the transaction has settled, only a Credit or refund can occur. 6. Submission/Deposit of Sales Drafts and Credit Drafts 6.1. Submission of Sales for Merchants OtherThanYour Business. You maypresent for payment only valid charges that arise from a transaction between a bona fide Cardholder and your establishment. If you deposit or attempt to deposit transactions that arise from sales between Cardholders and a different business than the one approved by us in our Agreement with you, then the transaction may be charged back, we may suspend or debit funds associated with all such transactions, and we may immediately terminate your account and the Agreement. 6.1.1. Factoring. Factoring is considered merchant fraud and strictly prohibited. Factoring is the submission of authorization requests and/or Sales Drafts by a merchant for Card transactions transacted by another business. If ),on submit Sales Drafts on behalf of another person, you will suffer any losses associated with the disputes of any such Sales Draft and/or transaction. Also if any fraud is involved, you could face criminal prosecution. 6.2. Timeliness. In order to qualify for the lowest interchange Discount Rate, all Sales and Credit Drafts must be properly completed and submitted daily if you have not received payment for submitted Sales Drafts after one (1) week from your normal payment date, contact Customer Service. Late Submission of Sales or Credit Drafts may result in increased interchange rates or fees or in a Chargeback to you. 6.3. Electronic Merchants: Daily Batching Requirements & Media Submission. Batches must be transmitted to us by the time indicated in Section A.2. of Part IV, of this Agreement) in order to be processed on the date of transmission. Additionally, if you deposit via magnetic tape, electronic transmissions, or Electronic Data Capture terminal, and have contracted to send the actual Sales Drafts and Credit Drafts to us for imaging and retrieval, the Media must be batched daily by register /terminal following the procedures below. Failure to do so ilia), result in a processing fee and/or a Chargeback due to our inability to retrieve the Media as requested by the issuer. • A register /terminal Batch header form must be filled out for each Batch of Media. • The Batch header must be imprinted with your Merchant Identification Card, and all areas completed properly (i.e., Batch number, date, amount, number of items, etc.). • The Batch/deposit total must match to the settled/reconciled amount displayed on the terminal upon closing the Batch. • Any discrepancies between the actual Media and electronic display must be reconciled and corrected before storing the Media (for merchants who contract to hold their Media) or before sending us the copies of the deposit. Otherwise, transactions may appear to be a new Submission and may be manually keyed (causing duplicate billing to Cardholders and resulting in Chargebacks) or we may not be able to retrieve an item when requested by the Issuer. FDSISOOB1805(ia) 16 • It is your responsibility to ensure that the actual Media is batched correctly and, depending on the terms of your Agreement, either stored at your location or sent to Processor. (In some cases, the actual Media is sent daily to your head office, and forwarded to Processor for imaging.) • You must confirm that your equipment has transmitted your Batches to us at least once daily Even if your equipment is designed or programmed to close and submit Batches without your intervention, it is ultimately your responsibility to confirm that the Batches have been transmitted to us for processing.

(maximum 500 documents per batch) Except as otherwise set forth in this Program Guide, Your funds for MasterCard/Visa/ Discover Network and American Express transactions will ordinarily be processed and transferred to your financial institution within two (2) Business Days from the time a Batch is received by Processor if your financial institution is the Bank. If your financial institution is not the Bank, your MasterCard/Visa/Discover transactions will ordinarily be processed via the Federal Reserve within two (2) Business Days from the time a Batch is received by Processor. The Federal Reserve will transfer such amounts to your financial institution. If you have been classified by Discover Network as having a Discover Direct Strategic Relationship with Discover Network, we will not acquire your Discover Network transactions and they will be subject to your agreement with Discover Network. You acknowledge and agree that if we have not agreed to or do not acquire transactions for any Card type (i) we have no liability or responsibility whatsoever for the settlement of or disputes regarding those transactions and (ii) you will pursue directly with the related Card Organization all claims and disputes regarding those transactions.

You must issue Credits to the Card used to make the original purchase; however, if the Credit is for the return of a gift by someone other than the Cardholder who made the original purchase, apply your usual refund policy. If the Cardholder indicates that the Card on which the purchase was originally made is no longer active or available, do the following: • For all Cards except Prepaid Cards, advise the Cardholder that you must issue the Credit to that Card. If the Cardholder has questions, advise him or her to call the customer service number on the back of the Card in question. + If the inactive or unavailable Card is a Prepaid Card, apply your usual refund policy for returns. If you issue a Credit, American Express will not refund the discount or any other fees or assessments previously applied on the corresponding Charge. The discount on Chargebacks will not be refunded. Your return and cancellation policies must be fair and clearly disclosed at the time of sale in compliance with applicable law. Your policies must be conveyed to the Cardholder prior to completion of the Charge and printed on a copy of a receipt or Sales Draft. Your refund policy for purchases on the American Express Card must be at least as favorable as your refund policy for purchases made with other payment products or other payment methods. Return Policy recommendations. Provide clear return instructions for your customers, including the following information: • Customer service telephone number. • Reference number for the return. • Expected processing time for the Credit. • Return address, preferably on a pre - formatted shipping label (if applicable).

Exchanges. • No additional paperwork is necessary for an even exchange. Just follow your standard company policy. • For an uneven exchange, complete a Credit Draft (follow the procedures outlined in Section 8.1) for the total amount of only the merchandise returned. The Cardholder's account will be credited for that amount. Then, complete a new Sales Draft for the total amount of any new merchandise purchased. 9.1. Retain Legible Copies. For Visa: You must securely retain legible copies of all Sales Drafts and Credit Drafts or any other transaction records for a period of thirteen (13) months from the date of each transaction and a period of five (5) years for the retention of healthcare Sales Drafts and Credit Drafts. The Sales Drafts you retain must comply with all requirements (see Section 3.1). For MasterCard: You must securely retain legible copies of all Sales Drafts and Credit Drafts or any other transaction records for a period of thirteen (13) months from the date of each transaction and a period of five (5) years for the retention of healthcare Sales Drafts and Credit Drafts.

You must provide all Sales Drafts and Credit Drafts or other transaction records requested by us within the shortest time limits FDSISOOB1805(ia) 17 established by Card Organization Rules. You are responsible for any deficiencies in Card transaction data transmitted or otherwise delivered to us. t Other 10.1. Chargebacks. 10.1.1. Generally. Both the Cardholder and the Issuer have the right to question or dispute a transaction. If such questions or disputes are not resolved, a Chargeback may occur. As a result, we will debit your Settlement Account or settlement funds for the amount of each Chargeback. It is strongly recommended that, whenever possible, you contact the Cardholder directly to resolve a disputed transaction or Chargeback, unless the dispute involves a Discover Network Cardholder, in which case Discover Network rules and regulations expressly prohibit you from contacting the Discover Network Cardholder regarding the dispute. You are responsible for all Chargebacks, our Chargeback fees, and related costs arising from your transactions. 10.1.2. Transaction Documentation Requests. In some cases, before a Chargeback is initiated, the Issuer will request a copy of the Sales Draft, via a request for transaction documentation. We will forward the request to you. You must respond to the request within the time frame and manner set forth in the request. We will then forward your response to the Issuer. If you fail to timely respond, we will so notify the Issuer and a Chargeback may result. Upon receipt of a transaction documentation request, immediately retrieve the requested Sales Draft(s) using the following guidelines: • Make a legible copy, centered on 8 -1/2 x 11 -inch paper (only one (1) Sales Draft per page). • Write the `case number' from the request for transaction documentation on each copy /page. • If applicable, make copies of a hotel folio, car rental agreement, mail/phone/internet order form, or other form of receipt. • If a Credit transaction has been processed, a copy of the Credit Draft is also required. • Letters are not acceptable substitutes for Sales Drafts. • Fax or mail legible copies of the Sales Draft(s) and Credit Drafts, if applicable, to the fax number or snail address provided on the request form. • If you fax your response, please set your fax machine to print your fax number and name on the documents that you send. We can use this information to help determine where the documentation received originated from should additional research be required. • Additionally, please set the scan resolution on your fax machine to the highest setting. The higher resolution setting improves the clarity of characters and graphics on the documentation transmitted and helps reduce the number of illegible fulfillments and/or Chargebacks. If we do not receive a clear, legible and complete copy of the transaction documentation within the timeframe specified on the request, you may be subject to a Chargeback for which there may be no recourse. A handling fee may be charged by the Issuer and will be debited from your Settlement Account or settlement funds if, a transaction documentation request results from a difference in the following information on the Sales Draft and the transmitted record: Merchant name or an incorrect city, state, foreign country and/or transaction date. 10.1.3. Chargeback Process. Regardless of whether ),on respond to a transaction doc- umentation request, a Chargeback may be debited to your Settlement Account for numerous reasons (see below). If the Issuer submits a Chargeback, we will send you a Chargeback notification, which may also include a request for transaction documentation. Due to the short time requirements imposed by MasterCard, Visa, Discover Network and American Express, it is extremely important that you respond to a Chargeback notification and transaction documentation request within the time frame set forth in the notification. Do not process a Credit transaction once a Chargeback is received; the Issuer will credit the Cardholder's account. Credits issued after a Chargeback has been received may not be recoverable and you may be financially responsible for the Credit as well as the Chargeback. If the information you provide is both timely and, in our sole discretion, sufficient to warrant a representment of the transaction and /or reversal of the Chargeback, we will do so on your behalf. However, represenument and/or reversal is /are Ultimately contingent upon the Issuer and/or Cardholder accepting the transaction under applicable Card Organization guidelines. Representment or reversal is not a guarantee that the Chargeback has been resolved in your favor. For Visa Chargebacks: If we reverse the Chargeback and represent the transaction to the Issuer, the Issuer, at its sole discretion, may elect to submit the matter for arbitration before Visa. Visa currently charges a $250 filing fee and a $250 review fee. You will be responsible for all such fees and charges nvhether or not a decision is made in your favor, and any other applicable fees and charges imposed by Visa, as they may change from time to time. Such fees and charges will be debited from your Settlement Account or settlement funds, in addition to the Chargeback. For MasterCard Chargebacks: If we reverse the Chargeback and represent the transaction to the Issuer, the Issuer, at its sole discretion, may elect to resubmit the Chargeback. In such event, at the discretion of Processor, we will debit your Settlement Account or settlement funds for the Chargeback. However, if you feel strongly that it is an invalid Chargeback, we may, on your behalf and at your request, submit the matter for arbitration before MasterCard. MasterCard currently charges a $150 filing fee and a 5250 review fee. You will be responsible for all such fees and charges whether or not a decision is made in your favor and any other applicable fees and charges imposed by MasterCard as the), may change from time to time. Such fees and charges will be debited from your Settlement Account or settlement funds, in addition to the Chargeback. For Discover Network Chargebacks: if Discover Network rejects our representment request and you feel strongly that the Chargeback is invalid, we may, at the discretion of Processor and on your behalf and at your request, submit the matter for dispute arbitration before Discover Network. Discover Network charges fees for representment requests and an arbitration fee as published in their fee schedule. For American Express Chargebacks: You may request a Chargeback reversal if the Charge- back was applied in error. In order for us to consider your request, you must have responded to the original inquiry within the specified timefiame set forth in your dispute notification, and provide all supporting documentation to substantiate the error. If the Chargeback is not disputed within the applicable time limits set forth by MasterCard, Visa, Discover Network and American Express rules and regulations, reversal rights are forfeited. Our only alternative, for Visa and MasterCard non -fraud Chargeback reason codes, is to attempt a "good faith collection" from the Issuer on your behalf. This process can take up to six (6) months and must meet the Issuer's criteria (e.g., at or above a set dollar amount). Good faith collection attempts are not a guarantee that any funds will be collected on your behalf. Issuers normally charge good faith collection fees, which are deducted from the transaction amount if accepted in addition to any processing fees that are charged by us. NOTE: Discover Network and American Express do not offer good faith collection for Acquirers. MasterCard and Visa Card Organization Rules require that a merchant make a good faith attempt and be willing and able to resolve any disputes directly with the Cardholder. Discover Network rules and regulations, however, prohibit you and/or us from contacting the Cardholder directly regarding dispute(s) or any other matter, except as required for acceptance of Discover Network transactions, and require you and/or us to submit any responses to dispute notices directly to Discover Network. Due to Card Organization Rules, you may not re -bill a Cardholder after a Chargeback is received for that transaction, even with Cardholder authorization. We strongly recommend that you include a detailed rebuttal letter along with all pertinent documents when responding to a transaction request or a Chargeback notification (e.g., rental agreement, imprinted portion of the invoice or Sales Draft; the portion signed by the Cardholder; and the area where the authorization codes, with amounts and dates, are located). Due to the short time frames and the supporting documentation necessary to successfully (and permanently) reverse a Chargeback in your favor, we strongly recommend the following: • Avoid Chargebacks by adhering to the guidelines and procedures outlined in these Operating Procedures. • If you do receive a Chargeback, investigate, and if you dispute the Chargeback, submit the appropriate documentation within the required time frame. • Whenever possible, contact the Cardholder directly to resolve the dispute, unless the dispute relates to a Discover Network Cardholder, in which case direct contact with the Discover Network Cardholder regarding the dispute is prohibited by Discover Network Card Organization Rules. • If you have any questions, call Customer Service, 10.1.4. Chargeback Reasons. This section outlines the most common types of Charge- backs. This list is not exhaustive. For ease of understanding, we have combined like Chargebacks into six groupings. We have included recommendations on how to reduce the risk of Chargebacks within each group. These are recommendations only, and do not guarantee that you will be able to prevent Chargebacks. 1. Authorization Issues: Proper Authorization procedures were not followed and valid Authorization was not obtained. The following scenarios could cause an Authorization Related Chargeback to occur: • Authorization not obtained. • Authorization was declined. • Transaction processed with an expired card and Authorization ttias not obtained. • Transaction was processed with an invalid account number and Authorization was not obtained. • Card Recovery Bulletin (CRB) or Exception File was not checked (transactions below floor limit). To reduce your risk of receiving an Authorization Related Chargeback: • Obtain valid Authorization on the day of the transaction. — Card Present Transactions - Authorization must be obtained on the transaction date for the amount settled. — Card Not Present Transact ions - Authorization must be obtained on the transaction date for the amount.settled. However, if merchandise is being shipped, Authorization must be obtained within seven calendar days of the transaction ship date. • If a declined response is received, then request another form of payment from the Cardholder. • If a Referral response is received, then follow proper voice procedures to obtain a valid Authorization and obtain an imprint of the card. • "Pick -up" response indicates that the Issuer is requesting for the card to be retained and returned back to them. The Card should not be accepted for payment. Additionally, you can choose to retain the Credit Card and return it to the Acquirer. • Merchants should not exceed any predetermined thresholds for specific terminal types as specified by each Card Organization. FDSISOOB1805(ia) 18 2. Cancellations and Returns: Credit was not processed properly or the Cardholder has cancelled and/or returned items. The following scenarios could cause a Cancellation and Return Related Chargeback to occur: • Cardholder received damaged or defective merchandise. • Cardholder continued to be billed for cancelled recurring transaction. • Credit transaction was not processed. To reduce your risk of receiving a Cancellation and Return Related Chargeback: • Issue Credit to the Cardholder for the same account as the purchase in a timely manner. — Do not issue Credit to the Cardholder in the form of cash, check or in- store/ merchandise Credit as we may not be able to recoup your funds in the event the transaction is charged back. • Ensure customers are fully aware of the conditions for recurring transactions. Cancel recurring billings as soon as notification is received from the Cardholder or as a Chargeback, and Issue the appropriate Credit as needed to the Cardholder in a timely manner. • Pre - notify the Cardholder of billings within 10 days (Domestic) and 15 (International) prior to billing, allowing the Cardholder time to cancel the transaction. • Provide proper disclosure of your refund policy for returned/cancelled merchandise, or services to the Cardholder at the time of transaction in accordance with applicable law. — Card present, Cardholder signed the Sales Draft containing disclosure. • If applicable, the words "NO EXCHANGE, NO REFUND," etc. must be clearly printed in 1/4 -inch lettering on the Sales Draft near or above the Cardholder signature. — Ecommerce, provide disclosure our website on same page as check out requiring Cardholder to click to accept prior to completion. — Card Not Present, provide cancellation policy at the time of the transaction. — Provide cancellation numbers to Cardholder's when lodging services are cancelled. • Ensure deliver)- of the merchandise or services ordered to the Cardholder. 3. Fraud: Transactions that the Cardholder claims are unauthorized; the account number is no longer in use or is fictitious, or the merchant was identified as "high risk." The following scenarios could cause a Fraud Related Chargeback to occur: • Multiple transactions were completed with a single card without the Cardholder's permission. • Counterfeit card was utilized and proper acceptance procedures were not followed. • Authorization was obtained; however, full track data was not transmitted. • Cardholder states that they did not authorize or participate in the transaction. NOTE: Visa Fraud Chargebacks: Chargeback representment rights do not exist if you failed to fulfill a key entered retrieval request and /or provide a sales slip that contains all required data elements. To preserve Chargeback representment rights, respond to all retrieval requests with a clear legible copy of the transaction document that contains all required data elements within the required timeframe that is specified by the retrieval request. To reduce your risk of receiving a Fraud Related Chargeback: Card Present Transactions: • Pre - notify the Cardholder of billings within ten (10) days • American Express customers have the option to receive written notification of the recurring transaction at least (10) days prior to submitting, or any time the Charge amount exceeds a maximum amount that has been set by the cardholder. • Obtain an Authorization for all transactions. • If you are utilizing an electronic device to capture card information, swipe, dip or wave all Card transactions through your electronic authorization device to capture Cardholder information. When applicable ensure the displayed Cardholder number matches the number on the Card. • If you are unable to electronically capture the Card or if a Referral response is received, imprint the Card using a valid imprinting device that will capture the embossed Card and merchant information. Do not alter the imprint on the draft in any way Manually entering the information into the terminal does not protect you from this type of Chargeback. All pertinent information relating to the transaction must be written on the manually imprinted draft (transaction date, dollar amount, authorization code and merchandise description) along with the Cardholder signature. NOTE: Do not imprint on the back of a signed Sales Draft. The imprint must be on the transaction document that contains all transaction elements to prove the Card was present at the time of the transaction. • Obtain the Cardholder signature for all transactions; ensure the signature on the Sales Draft matches the signature on the back of the Card. • Process all transaction one time and do not Batch out transactions multiple times. • Educate staff on procedures to eliminate point of sale (POS) fraud. Card Not Present Transactions: • Participation in recommended fraud mitigation tools: — Verified by Visa Program — MasterCard SecureCode — Address Verification Services — CVV2, CVC2 and CID Verification NOTE: While transactions utilizing these tools may still be disputed, the service may assist you with your decision to accept the Card for the transaction. • Ensure you ship to the AVS confirmed address (bill to and ship to should match). • Obtain Authorization for all transactions. • Ensure merchant descriptor matches the name of the business and is displayed correctly on the Cardholder statement. • Ensure descriptor includes correct business address and a valid customer service number. American Express offers fraud mitigation tools for both Card Present and Card Not Present transactions to help verify that a Charge is valid. These tools help you mitigate the risk of fraud at the point of sale, but are not a guarantee that a Charge is in fact valid or bona fide, or that you wall not be subject to a Chargeback. For optimal use of the tools, please visit American Express' Fraud Prevention Information at: wwwamericanexnress .com/fraudinfo. 4. Cardholder Disputes: Merchandise or services not received by the Cardholder, Merchandise defective or not as described. The following scenarios could cause a Cardholder Dispute Chargeback to occur: • Services were not provided or merchandise was not received by the Cardholder. • The Cardholder was charged prior to merchandise being shipped or merchandise was not received by agreed upon delivery date or location. • Cardholder received merchandise that was defective, damaged, or unsuited for the purpose sold, or did not match the description on the transaction documentation/verbal description presented at the time of purchase. • Cardholder paid with an alternate means and their Card was also billed for the same transaction. • Cardholder cancelled service or merchandise and their Card was billed. • Cardholder billed for a transaction that was not part of the original transaction document. • The Cardholder claims to have been sold counterfeit goods. • The Cardholder claims the terms of sale were misrepresented by the merchant. To reduce your risk of receiving a Cardholder Dispute Related Chargeback: • Provide Services or Merchandise as agreed upon and described to the Cardholder; clearly indicate the expected delivery date on the sales receipt or invoice. • Contact the Cardholder in writing if the merchandise or service cannot be provided or is delayed, and offer the Cardholder the option to cancel if your internal policies allow. • In the event that the Cardholder received defective merchandise or the merchandise received was not as described; resolve the issue with the Cardholder at first contact. • If the merchandise is being picked up by the Cardholder, have them sign for the merchandise after inspection that it was received in good condition. • Do not Charge the Cardholder until the merchandise has been shipped, ship according to the agreed upon terms and obtain signed Proof of Delivery from the Cardholder. • If unable to provide services or merchandise, issue a Credit to Cardholder in a timely manner. • Accept only one form of payment per transaction and ensure the Cardholder is only billed once per transaction. • Do not bill Cardholder for loss, theft or damages unless authorized by the Cardholder.

You trust not accept or have accepted transaction data from, nor shall you provide or have provided transaction data to, any third parties other than your covered parties (as defined in the Data Security Operating Policy (DSOP)). If you fail to comply with this requirement, you may be charged non - compliance or other fees as indicated on the Merchant Processing Application and/or have your Card acceptance privileges at required your establishments suspended or disentitled. 14.14. In Person Charges. in- person charges refer to charges in which the Card and Cardholder are present at the point of sale. An example of this is when a Cardholder presents a Card to the merchant at a retail store. For all in- person charges, the Card must be presented. There are several ways in which you can conduct the in- person Charge. The steps you take vary according to how you go about conducting in- person charges: (electronic or kcy- entered charges). 14. IS. Electronic charges. Electronic Point of Sale Systems automatically capture required information from the Card so it can be used to request Authorization for the Charge. Electronic charges can be conducted in a variety of ways depending on the type of Card presented. • Magnetic Stripe Cards — contain Card Member and Card account information on the stripe on the back of the Card, or in a contactless Chip embedded in the Card. • Chip Cards — contain a Chip on which data is stored (including Card Member and Card account information), which the Point of Sale System can read in order to guide the processing of the Transaction. Some Magnetic Stripe and Chip Cards may be read over the contactless interface of the Point of Sale System. The Charge Record is then created from the information captured during the electronic Charge. 14.16. Magnetic Stripe Card Charges When presented with a Card at the point of sale you must: • Verify that the Card is not visibly altered or mutilated • Verify that the customer is the Cardholder (Cards are not transferable). • Obtain an Authorization Approval • Capture Magnetic Stripe data by swiping the Card (unless the Charge was already initiated by waving the contactless chip Card in close proximity to the point of sale system). • Match the Card number and the expiration date on the Card to the same information on the Sales Draft. • Ensure the name that prints on the Sales Draft matches the name on the front of the Card except when the Cardholder name is not captured on the Sales Draft or for prepaid Cards that do not show a name out their face. • Validate the Card's presence by taking an imprint of the Card (the imprint is for your records). Failure to validate the Card's presence by taking an imprint of the Card can render merchant liable for Chargebacks if the Card- member disputes the Charge, except when the Cardholder name is not captured on the Sales Draft or for prepaid Cards that do not show a name on their face. 14.17. American Express Mobile Contactless Charges. When presented with a contactless- enabled mobile phone, in addition to the "Magnetic Stripe Card Charges" requirements, you must: • Capture Magnetic Stripe or chip Card data by waving the contactless - enabled mobile phone in close proximity to the contactless reader. • Compare the signature (when obtained) on the Sales Draft with the signature on the companion physical Card or a valid form of formal identification (e.g. driver's license). You must not record or store the information from such formal identification in any way. If a mobile contactless transaction cannot be processed for any reason, you should require that the Cardholder provide the companion physical Card to complete the transaction. 14.18. American Express Contact Chip Charges. When presented with a chip Card to be inserted into a chip Card reader, in addition to the "Magnetic Stripe Card Charges" requirements, you must: • Capture chirp Card data by inserting the Card into the chip Card reader, The point of sale system will advise Cardholders to enter their PIN (a chip and PIN Charge) or sign for the Charge (a chip and signature Charge). • Chip and PIN Charges. Cardholders will enter their PIN into the point of sale system using the keypad. If the chip and PIN Charge are unable to be completed due to a technical problem, the point of sale system will show an error message. • Chip and signature Charge. Failure to obtain a signature, when required, can render you liable for Chargebacks if the Cardholder disputes the Charge. Obtaining a signature may not be required if merchant's establishment and the Charge qualify for the No Signature Program. 14.19. American Express Contactless Chip Charges. When presented with a chip Card to be read via a contactless reader and the Charge qualifies for the No Signature Program, in addition to the "Magnetic Stripe Card Charges" requirements, you must:, • Capture Magnetic Stripe or chip Card data using the contactless reader. For charges that do not qualify under the No Signature Program, follow the relevant Card acceptance procedures outlined in either: • "Magnetic Stripe Card Charges," or • "Contact Chip Card Charges." 14.20. American Express Key- Entered Charges. If a Card cannot be read electronically, in addition to the "Magnetic Stripe Card Charges" requirements, you must: • Key enter Are data. 14.21. Keyed No Imprint for American Express Transactions. • Your establishments may be eligible to participate in the American Express "Keyed No Imprint Program." The "Keyed No Imprint Program" allows you to submit in- person charges without taking an imprint of the Card if you meet the following Charge criteria: • All Cards qualify for the "Keyed No Imprint Program." • The Charge must be key - entered. • The Charge Submission must include the appropriate indicator to reflect that the Card and the Cardholder were present at the point of sale. • The Charge Submission must include a valid approval, and; • The CID Number must be confirmed as a positive match. Under the "Keyed No Imprint Program," Chargebacks will not be exercised for such charges based solely on the estab- lishment's failure to obtain an imprint of the Card. If a disproportionate amount or number of disputed charges under the "Keyed No Imprint Program" occurs, you must cooperate to reduce the number of disputed charges. If such efforts fail, you may be placed in any of American Express' Chargeback programs or your participation in the "Keyed No Imprint Program" may be modified or terminated. 14.22.

The Services provided, transactions processed and other matters contemplated under this Section 29 are subject to the rest of this Agreement, as applicable, except to the extent the terms of this Section 29 directly conflict with another provision of this Agreement, in which case the terms of this Section 29 will control. 29.1. Debit Card Acceptance. Most, but not all, ATM Cards (Debit Cards) can be FDSISOOB1805(ia) 29 accepted at the point of sale at participating locations. Examine the back of the Debit Card to determine if the Card participates in a PIN Debit network that you are authorized to accept. PiN Debit network Mark(s) are usually printed on the back of the Card. if the Debit Card is valid and issued by a financial institution Issuer participating in a PIN Debit network, you must comply with the following general requirements for all participating PIN Debit networks, in addition to the specific requirements of that PIN Debit network: • You must honor all valid Debit Cards when presented that bear authorized PIN Debit network Marks. • You must treat transactions by Cardholders from all Issuers in the same manner. • You may not establish a minimum or maximum transaction amount for Debit Card acceptance. • You may not require additional information, besides the PIN, for the completion of the transaction unless the circumstances appear suspicious. A signature is not required for Debit Card transactions. • You shall not disclose transaction related information to any party other than your agent, a PIN Debit network, or Issuer and then only for the purpose of settlement or error resolution. • You may not process a Credit Card transaction in order to provide a refund on a Debit Card transaction. 29.2. Transaction Processing. The following general requirements apply to all Debit Card transactions: • All Debit Card transactions must be authorized and processed electronically. There is no Voice Authorization or Imprinter procedure for Debit Card transactions. • You may not complete a Debit Card transaction that has not been authorized. If you cannot obtain an Authorization at the time of sale, you should request another form of payment from the Cardholder or process the transaction as a Store and Forward or Resubmission, in which case you assume the risk that the transaction fails to authorize or otherwise declines. The Cardholder should be instructed to contact the Issuer to find out why a transaction has been declined. • Unless the transaction is a network supported PINless transaction, you may not complete a Debit Card transaction without entry of the PIN by the Cardholder. The PIN must be entered into the PIN pad only by the Cardholder. You cannot accept the PIN from the Cardholder verbally or in written form. • The PIN Debit network used to process your transaction will depend upon, among other things, our own business considerations, the availability of the PIN Debit network at the time of the transaction and whether a particular Debit Card is enabled for a particular PIN Debit network. The PiN Debit network utilized to route your transaction may or may not be the lowest cost network available. We may, in our sole discretion (i) utilize any PIN Debit network available to us for a given transaction (including a PiN Debit network affiliated with Processor) and (ii) add and/or remove PIN Debit networks available to you based on a variety of factors including availability, features, functionality and our own business considerations. • You must issue a receipt to the Cardholder upon successful completion of a transaction and effect PAN Truncation on it. • You may not manually enter the account number. The account number must be read electronically from the Magnetic Stripe. If the Magnetic Stripe is unreadable, you must request another form of payment from the Cardholder. • Any applicable tax must be included in the total transaction amount for which Authorization is requested. Tax may not be collected separately in cash. • YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE TO SECURE YOUR TERMINALS AND TO INSTITUTE APPROPRIATE CONTROLS TO PREVENT EMPLOYEES OR OTHERS FROM SUBMITTING CREDITS AND VOIDS THAT DO NOT REFLECT BONA FIDE RETURNS OR REIMBURSEMENTS OF PRIOR TRANSACTIONS. 29.3. Cash Back From Purchase. You have the option of offering cash back to your customers when they make a PIN Debit Card purchase. YOU may set a minimum and maximum amount of cash back that you will allow. If you are not now offering this service, your terminal may require additional programming to begin offering cash back as long as it is supported by the PIN Debit Network. 29.4. Settlement. Within one Business Day of the original transaction, you must balance each location to our system for each Business Day that each location is open. 29.5. Adjustments. An adjustment is a transaction that is initiated to correct a Debit Card transaction that has been processed in error. You will be responsible for all applicable adjustment fees that may be charged by a Debit Card network. Some PIN Debit networks may have established minimum amounts for adjustments. There are several reasons for adjustments being initiated: • The Cardholder was charged an incorrect amount, either too little or too much. • The Cardholder was charged more than once for the same transaction. • A processing error may have occurred that caused the Cardholder to be charged even though the transaction did not complete normally at the point of sale. All parties involved in processing adjustments are regulated by time frames that are specified in the operating rules of the applicable PiN Debit network, The Electronic Funds Transfer Act, Regulation E, and other applicable law.
