in writing.
2. Effect. This Amendment amends the Master Agreement solely for purposes of

Agreement and this Amendment, the provisions of this Amendment shall prevail.
3. Miscellaneous. We represent and warrant to each other that this Amendment has been
authorized by all necessary corporate or other entity action, and that the person signing this
Amendment on our behalf is duly authorized to do so. This Amendment evidences the entire

FIFTH THIRD BANK'
COMMERCIAL ACCOUNT RULES
These Commercial Account Rules ("Rules") govern all commercial deposit
accounts at Fifth Third Bank ("Accounts") and constitute an agreement between our
customer, the entity (or entities) that has established the Account ("you" in these Rules)
and Fifth Third Bank, an Ohio banking corporation ("we" or "us" in these Rules). By
opening an Account and either signing the signature card for the Account or using the
Account in any way, you accept and agree to these Rules.
Account Documentation
Customer Identification Program. To help the government fight the funding of
terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial
institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or
business entity that opens an Account. When you open an Account with us, you
must provide us with your business entity name, principal and local (if different)
address, date of establishment, employer identification number and other
information. We may also seek additional information or documents. You agree
that we may seek information about you from third parties to confirm your identity
and for other Account related purposes. We are required to follow these procedures
even if you are already a customer of ours.
Authorizations Forms. The forms we require when you open your Account include
account resolutions, a commercial signature card and other documents that establish the
authority of the person or persons authorized to access your Accounts and conduct
banking business with us. An "Authorized Person" is any person identified to us as such
or as an agent of yours in the account resolutions you give us or in the signature card or
other account implementation forms we require, and any other person or agent acting for
you with actual or apparent authority to transact business on your behalf. We may require
additional information and documents for these purposes at any time. You agree to keep
the information you provide us current and up-to-date including for any change in your
business name, address, Authorized Persons and contact information. You authorize us
to recognize the authority of each Authorized Persons until we receive authorized written
notice that the existing authorization is changed or terminated and we have had a
reasonable opportunity to act on that notice. We are not responsible for any losses if you
fail to timely and properly notify us of changes in your information, authorizations or
Authorized Persons. We are not obligated to honor checks or process transactions until
we receive properly completed authorization forms.
Compliance With Law. You agree that you will use your Account only for lawful
business purposes and in compliance with Applicable Law(as defined below).
August 2016
Master Treasury Management Agreement. Our Master Treasury Management Agreement
and the Terms and Conditions for Services(collectively,the"Master Agreement") govern
the treasury management Services (as defined in the Master Agreement) we provide to
our customers. If we have executed a Master Agreement with you, the Master
Agreement governs the Service and these Rules continue to govern your Accounts.
Should there be any conflict between the provisions of these Rules and the provisions of
the Master Agreement, the provisions of the Master Agreement will prevail as necessary
to resolve the conflict. If you have not executed a Master Agreement but use one of these
Services, you will be deemed to have accepted and agreed to be bound by the Master
Agreement and the Terms and Conditions for the Services you use in each case, in the
form provided to you.
Additional Documentation. We may, from time to time, require that you provide us with
additional documentation to verify your identity, the authority of individuals acting on
your behalf and other matters relating to your Account.
Deposits
Collection. When you deposit or cash a check, draft or other item with us (in whatever
medium including a substitute or imaged check, an "Item")by any means, we act as your
agent in collecting the Item. You have the risk of loss for each Item throughout the
collection process and are solely responsible for the return, rejection and collectability of
each Item. We may charge your Account for, or otherwise obtain a refund of the amount
of any credit we gave you for the deposited Item (including interest and earnings credits),
if we are unable to collect the Item for any reason including loss or destruction of the
Item, regardless of when the Item is returned. You agree to assist us in any case in
collecting lost, destroyed or returned Items. We are not responsible for the insolvency or
any act or failure to act of any other bank, processor or intermediary in the collection
process. We reserve the right to process an Item on a collection basis only. We are not
required to examine Items for, and have no responsibility for any legends or restrictions
appearing on any Item deposited to your Account.
Verification. All deposits and credits to your Account (even those for which we have
provided a receipt) are subject to final verification by us. We recommend that you
maintain thorough records of all deposits. Credit for any deposit is always provisional
and subject to verification and correction at any time without notice if we determine it to
be incorrect for any reason. We may refuse to accept deposits or specific Items for
deposit and may limit the minimum or maximum balance that you may maintain in any
Account. We reserve the right to produce images of deposit documents including Items
and destroy the original, subject to our retention policy.
Preauthorized Drafts. If you deposit a preauthorized draft, you represent and warrant to
us that you have legal, valid and binding authorization from the maker of the draft to
create a draft against the maker's account. You agree to furnish valid proof of such
authorization upon request and that we may reverse any credit we gave you (and related
interest) if the draft is returned at any time. We reserve the right to refuse to accept
preauthorized drafts at any time.
2
Returned Items. Items you deposit in an Account are subject to collection. If any Item is
returned to us unpaid by any means(including electronically)or form at any time for any
reason, we will reverse the credit to, or otherwise debit your Account or any other
Account of yours with us for the amount of the credit and any applicable fees, service
charges and other damages we suffer. If there are not sufficient funds in the Account,we
may obtain a refund of the amount of any credit we gave you for the Item by any legal
means(and reverse or recover any associated interest or earnings credit) regardless of any
applicable midnight deadline or other circumstances. We may, in our discretion present
an unpaid Item for payment or collection again without notice to you including
electronically. You understand that an Item drawn on a financial institution in a foreign
country may be returned at any time and your obligation with respect to the returned Item
could arise at anytime. If a deposited Item is returned unpaid, and resubmitted for
payment, we reserve the right to charge a re-presentment fee. If a deposited Item is
returned unpaid and charged back to your Account, we reserve the right to charge a
returned item fee. If an Item is returned as a counterfeit item, altered item, or for any
other reason, you are liable to us for any loss we suffer regardless of any confirmation of
availability of funds we may have provided to you. You may not receive an original of a
deposit item that is returned unpaid; instead you may receive an image or other record of
the item.
Endorsements. We may accept for deposit any Item last endorsed by you (including as
you instruct us). We have adopted specific endorsement requirements that are set forth in
our Funds Availability Policy included with these Rules. You agree to abide by the
endorsement requirements and acknowledge that we have no responsibility for any
improper endorsement or marks by you. You understand that we may refuse to accept
Items not properly endorsed by you. We may, however, supply a missing endorsement
on an Item we cash or take for collection,and you authorize us to do so.
Encoding. If you encode any information on a check you deposit with us, you are solely
responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the encoding.
Foreign Currencies. We may accept deposits of Items payable in foreign currencies that
are convertible to U.S. dollars. We will credit your Account when we receive proceeds in
U.S. dollars, and you will bear exchange rate exposure until that time. We will convert
foreign currencies to U.S. dollars in accordance with our customary practices. The
processing and collection of foreign checks may be subject to foreign law and regulations
including with respect to collection and review periods that are different than U.S.
periods. We may accept a foreign check on a collection basis only.
Funds Availability. Funds from your deposits will be available for withdrawal as
provided in our Funds Availability Policy. Deposits to your Account are subject to our
published cut-off times and policies. The availability of funds as provided in the Funds
Availability Policy does not mean the funds have been collected, that the applicable Item
or other credit or deposit is "good" or has been finally paid or settled, or that the deposit
is not subject to chargeback or reversal. We may reverse or chargeback any deposit or
other credit to your Account if it is reversed or returned to us for any reason at any time,
or was otherwise the subject of an error.
3
Substitute Checks. To make check processing faster, federal law permits banks to replace
original checks with "substitute checks." These checks are similar in size to original
checks with a slightly reduced image of the front and back of the original check. The
front of a substitute check states "this is a legal copy of your check. You can use it the
same way you would use the original check." You may use a substitute check as proof of
payment just like the original check. Some or all of the checks you receive back from us
may be substitute checks. We reserve the right to refuse to accept a substitute check
created by a person other than a bank that has not yet been transferred by another bank
unless otherwise agreed to by us in writing. We may limit or impose conditions on your
right to deposit a substitute check at any time. In no event are you authorized to identify
us as a reconverting or truncating bank.
Withdrawals and Transfers
Presentment. We may charge your Account on the day the Item is presented to us by any
means. We may charge your Account or place a hold on funds if we receive an electronic
or other notice that your Item has been deposited for collection at another bank. We have
no obligation to honor any Item drawn on,or any withdrawal or transfer from an Account
if an Overdraft (as defined below) would be created or increased. We make the decision
to pay or return an Item in a single determination between the time the Item is presented
to us by any means or we receive notice of it, and the time we are required to honor or
refuse an Item.
Overdraft. If the Available Balance (as defined below) in an Account plus available
credit in an overdraft protection plan you have in place with us is insufficient, at any
time, to pay all Items, debits, fees and other transactions presented for payment from the
Account, that Account is in an overdraft position (an "Overdraft"). If an Overdraft is
created, we may, at our option and in our discretion pay or return any Item or debits
regardless of the order of presentment, or whether payment creates an Overdraft. You
understand that such payment does not constitute an application for credit and that the
amount of deficiency, whether from the amount of the Overdraft or any fees assessed, in
the Account is immediately due and payable without further demand. In case of any
Overdraft, whether by error, mistake, inadvertence, or otherwise, you agree to
immediately pay the amount of such Overdraft to us, plus any fees or charges we assess.
We may assess an Overdraft fee whether we pay the Item or debit.
Available Balance. The"Available Balance" is an Account's balance as of the end of the
previous business day's processing, plus or minus any pending transactions, direct
deposits that have not posted or holds (including deposited funds being held for
verification). If multiple Items are presented against the Account for payment and the
Available Balance of the Account is insufficient to pay all of those Items, we (not you)
have the right to decide whether to pay any or all of those items or not. We will post
Items and other debits to your Account and pay them as follows: we will first post all
deposits made prior to the end of day cutoff time; next, we will post all fees, including
but not limited to, any overdraft fees; next, the Bank will post ATM and debit card
purchases in the order they took place; finally, we will post all other debits, including
checks, electronic bill payments, wire transfer and ACH debits in the order of highest
4
amount to lowest amount. This posting order may change due to circumstance beyond
our control, for example, changes or disruptions in network processing or processing
delays by a third party. If we decide to change the order, we will notify you as and to the
extent required by Applicable Law.
Electronic Presentment and Representment. In certain cases, your check may be
converted to electronic information and presented to us electronically. If we return a
check you wrote, it may be represented to us electronically. You authorize us in our sole
discretion to return any Item drawn on your Account by any legally permissible means
including returning an Image or other electronic return.
Dates and Restrictions. We may, without inquiry or liability honor or refuse to honor
any Item drawn on your Account that is (a) is post-dated or contrary to special
instructions or restrictive legend identified on the Item, or(b) undated or has a date on the
Item more than six months old. If you do not want us to honor these Items, you must
give us a stop payment order.
Processing Requirements. You understand that we, like most other financial institutions,
process Items using high speed automated equipment based on the Magnetic Ink
Character Recognition (MICR) line information encoded on such Items. While we select
some Items for physical review based on our internal criteria that changes from time to
time, we do not visually inspect each Item. You agree that we may disregard any
information on an Item other than the MICR data amount, signature of drawer and
identity of payee.
Signature Requirements. If you establish an Account that purports to require two or more
signatures on an Item or impose any conditions or restrictions in any way,you understand
that such signature requirements, conditions, and restrictions are solely for your own
internal control purposes. We will not be liable for paying any Item lacking the required
number of signatures, or otherwise not in compliance with any such conditions or
restrictions. In addition, if you use an ink or form that is not recognized by imaging
equipment, it may not be processed properly or at all and we may return it unpaid without
liability.
Facsimile or Mechanical Signatures. If you use a stamp, computer printer or software,
facsimile or other mechanical or electronic device or method (collectively, "Mechanical
Signatures") to sign or endorse Items, we are authorized to conclusively rely on that
signature as your authorized signature regardless of the person or means by which such
signature may have been made, or the color or combination of colors of the signature or
any other marking, legend, identifier or code. We will treat the Item that has such
signature (or any signature that reasonably resembles the specimen you provide to us) as
authorized by you and properly payable,and we will honor it. You acknowledge that you
understand and appreciate the risks associated with using Mechanical Signatures, and
agree that you assume sole responsibility for maintaining the security of the device or
computer that operates the Mechanical Signature. We are not liable to you or any other
person for any unauthorized use or misuse of a Mechanical Signature or if we dishonor
an Item when we believe in good faith that the signature is not genuine or authorized.
5
Checks Presented Over the Counter. If anyone who is not one of our customers presents
your check to us "over-the-counter," we may require proper identification and may
charge a fee. We may dishonor the check if the person refuses to pay the required fee or
provide proper identification.
Savings Deposits. We specifically reserve the right to require seven (7) days written
notice before funds deposited into savings accounts may be withdrawn.
Account Information
Availability. We will send to you by mail at the address we have in our files or send or
make available to you by other agreed or permitted means periodic statements, notices
and other information regarding the Accounts and transactions in the Accounts("Account
Information"). If you are subject to a Master Agreement, you may elect to not receive
periodic statements. You may also access and view your Account Information by a
variety of internes based and electronic reporting or Account management Services.
Your Obligations. You acknowledge that you are in the best position to discover an error
or problem with your Account including, for example: the payment of an unauthorized
(including counterfeit) check, Item or other activity charged to your Account;
unauthorized access; an unauthorized or incorrect debit or other charge to your Account;
an altered check charged to your Account; a check with a missing or unauthorized
signature; erroneous fee charges, credits, debits or other entries, including ACH entries;
missing or incorrect deposits and other credits; and other problems with your Account or
activity in your Account (an "Account Problem"). You agree to promptly and carefully
examine and reconcile all Account Information available to you and to notify of us of any
Account Problem as soon as possible so that we will be in a better position to address it.
Your failure to exercise reasonable care in examining your Account Information or
provide reasonably prompt notice to us may affect any rights you may have against us
with respect to the Account Problem. You must notify us of, and assert any claim you
may have with respect to any Account Problem within a reasonable time under the
circumstances (not to exceed 30 days) after the date we sent or otherwise made available
to you the Account Information indicating the Account Problem. If you fail to notify us
promptly within this timeframe: (a) you will be deemed to have failed to exercise
reasonable care and promptness in examining your Account Information; (b) any Item
charged to your Account will be deemed fully enforceable against you; (c) we will not be
obligated to recredit or refund the amount of the Account Problem; and (d) you will be
precluded from asserting the Account Problem against us.
Account Problems. If you timely assert an Account Problem, we may require you to
provide us with information and evidence relating to the Account Problem. You agree to
cooperate with us at your expense in any investigation of an Account Problem, including
providing an appropriate affidavit or filing a police report as we may reasonably request.
We may delay taking action on the Account Problem until we complete our investigation.
If you fail to cooperate with us, we will be relieved of any liability for the Account
Problem.
6
Time Limitation. Without regard to care or lack of care by you or us, you agree that you
cannot commence any legal action or proceeding against us regarding any Account
Problem unless you do so within one year after we mail or otherwise make available to
you the first statement or other information on which the Account Problem appeared (or
would have appeared in the case of missing debts or credits)or was otherwise indicated.
Imaging. We typically do not retain paper copies or originals of deposit tickets, checks
or other paper transaction documents except as required by law. We will make and store
images of these documents in accordance with our internal policies and procedures. You
acknowledge that these images will be treated as originals for all purposes.
Wire Transfers and Electronic Credits. We will give you notice of the receipt of wire
transfers, ACH credits and other electronic transfers to your Account through your
Account Information.
Compliance
These Rules, your Account and use of the Account and activity in the Accounts are
subject to all applicable state, federal, local and foreign laws, rules, regulations and other
laws including, without limitation, rules, regulations and operating rules and operating
guidelines established by NACHA - the Electronic Payment Association ("Operating
Rules") and any money transfer system, check clearing organization and payment
clearinghouse used by us in connection with your transactions and the regulations and
operating circulars of Federal Reserve Board (collectively, "Applicable Law"). Both
parties agree to be bound by the Operating Rules where applicable, and to comply with
Applicable Law including any control or sanction administered by the Office of Foreign
Asset Control.
Remittance Transfer Rule
Application. The provisions of this Section apply to you to the extent you are or may be
classified as a "Remittance Transfer Provider" under Regulation E and the regulations
and related interpretations adopted by The Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection
amending Regulation E, which implements the Electronic Fund Transfer Act set forth in
12 CFR 1005 (collectively, the "Remittance Transfer Rule"). If you use any of our funds
transfer Services or otherwise make a payment through us in connection with making a
Remittance Transfer (as defined below), we will be acting as your agent (within the
meaning of the Remittance Transfer Rule) and not a Remittance Transfer Provider in
carrying out your Remittance Transfer.
Definitions. As used in this Section,the following terms have the indicated meanings:
(a) "Designated Recipient" means any person specified by the Sender as
the authorized recipient of a Remittance Transfer to be received at a
location in a foreign country;
(b) "Remittance Transfer" means the electronic transfer of funds
requested by a Sender to a Designated Recipient that is sent by a
7
Remittance Transfer Provider. The term applies regardless of whether
the Sender holds an account with the Remittance Transfer Provider,
and regardless of whether the transaction is also an electronic fund
transfer, as defined in Regulation E;
(c) "Remittance Transfer Provider" means any person that provides
Remittance Transfers for a consumer in the normal course of its
business, regardless of whether the consumer holds an account with
such person; and,
(d) "Sender" means a consumer in a state, territory or possession of the
United States (including the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico)
who primarily for personal, family, or household purposes requests a
Remittance Transfer Provider to send a Remittance Transfer to a
Designated Recipient.
The foregoing terms shall be used and construed as provided in the Remittance Transfer
Rule.
Customer Undertakings. You represent and warrant to us that you have implemented
reasonable and effective policies and procedures to comply, and each funds transfer sent
to or through us using one of our Services complies, with the Remittance Transfer Rule.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you agree to provide the disclosures to
each Sender, obtain required Sender consents, be responsible for error resolution
procedures and providing remedies to the Sender, and be responsible for the cancellation
and refund of Remittance Transfers, all as required of Remittance Transfer Providers by
the Remittance Transfer Rule.
Fifth Third Bank. You acknowledge that our Services do not include complying with, or
monitoring your compliance with, the Remittance Transfer Rule with respect to your
Remittance Transfers. You agree that we are not responsible or liable for your
compliance with Applicable Law including the Remittance Transfer Rule.
Funds Transfers
Application. This Section applies to payment orders to the extent we and you have not
entered into a separate written agreement for you to use our one of our funds transfer
Services or Global Cash Services.
System Rules. All funds transfers including payment orders, wire transfers, ACH entries
and other instructions to make payments or transfers (including amendments and
cancellations, "payment orders") to or from your Account are subject to the rules then in
effect for the funds transfer system through which the transfers are made, including, for
ACH transactions, the Operating Rules and any local clearing house used in the process,
and for transfers through the funds transfer system of the Federal Reserve Banks, the
applicable laws and regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
and related operating circulars.
8
Legal Compliance. Without limiting your obligation to comply with Applicable Law
generally, you agree to comply with regulations and requirements administered by the
Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) and the U.S. Department of the Treasury's
Financial Crimes Enforcement Network including screening your transactions and
payment orders for OFAC compliance and to maintain an effective education program
within your organization to insure compliance with such regulations and requirements.
Credits. Your Account Information will notify you of funds transfer payments and other
credits to your Account. We are not required to provide any other notice of the receipt of
funds transfers. All credits to your Accounts for funds transfers are provisional until we
receive final settlement. If we do not receive final settlement, we are entitled to a refund
(through reversal debit or otherwise) of the amount credited to your Account for that
transfer,together with any associated interest or credit.
Funds Processing. You are solely responsible for the contents and accuracy of each
payment order sent to us by you or on your behalf by your representatives. In the
absence of specific written instruction, we will choose the funds transfer system
processor and intermediary banks as necessary to carry out your instructions. In any
payment order, we and any bank or intermediary are entitled to rely on the Account
number and bank identification number provided to us without any obligation to look at
the name of the receiving customer or bank that may also appear on the payment order.
If we are given written notice of an error, we will advise you promptly.
ACH Entries. You authorize us to debit or credit your Account for ACH entries to or
from your Account. ACH entries must be transmitted to us by you or on your behalf in
accordance with the NACHA rules and our policies and procedures. You are responsible
for all entries that are authorized by you or submitted by authorized person on your
behalf.
Payment. Unless otherwise agreed to by us in writing, you must pay us the amount of the
payment order, plus any applicable fees, before we will execute your payment order.
Interest. If we are responsible for interest under Applicable Law for our failure to
execute, or a delayed or improper execution of a payment order, our liability for interest
is limited to the payment of interest at the applicable Federal Funds rate for that period.
Fees and Charges
Subject to any separate written agreement between you and us that has been signed by
one of our authorized officers, you agree to pay our standard fees and other charges in
connection with your Accounts as established by us from time to time. A copy of the
fees and charges applicable to you may be obtained from our relationship officer for your
Accounts. You also agree to pay us our costs and hourly fees for complying with
subpoenas or other legal orders and your requests. Unless we have agreed to allow you
to pay fees through account analysis or compensating balances, you authorize us to debit
or otherwise deduct the fees and other charges, and costs from your Accounts, even if it
9
creates an overdraft. For electronic transfers, we may deduct our fees from the proceeds
of such transfers. Unpaid amounts due to us may be subject to a finance charge.
Stop Payment Instructions
Checks. You may, through an authorized person instruct us in writing to stop payment on
an Item that has not been paid, accepted or certified by us or converted to an electronic
payment. A stop payment instruction is only effective if you have given us the proper
account name, account number, check number and corresponding amount of the Item and
we have had a reasonable opportunity to take action prior to us paying, accepting,
certifying or otherwise acting with respect to or, becoming obligated on the check. A
stop payment instruction is valid for six months. We reserve the right to require
additional information. All of the required information must be exactly correct for the
stop payment instruction to be effective. Oral stop payment orders, if we accept them,
must be confirmed in writing or they become void after fourteen days. We may pay a
check after the stop payment instruction expires or if required by law. Stop payment
orders will not be accepted for cashiers checks, certified checks or other bank obligations.
By placing a stop payment instruction, you agree to indemnify us and hold us harmless
for all expenses, costs, and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by us due to our refusal to
pay the Item. If we recredit your Account after payment over a valid stop payment
instruction, you agree to assign to us your rights against the payee of the Item and to
assist us in enforcing those rights. Our liability with respect to any stop payment
instruction is limited in all cases to the face amount of the applicable Item.
Preauthorized Payments. If you have told us in advance to make regular payments from
your Account, you can stop any of these payments by calling Customer Service at 1-800-
972-3030 or call the Banking Center where your account is located or write to:
Customer Service Department
Fifth Third Bank
Madisonville Operations Center
MD 1 MOC3A
Cincinnati, Ohio 45263
in time for us to receive your request three (3) business days or more before the payment
is scheduled to be made. If you call, we may also require that you put your request in
writing and send it to us so we receive it within fourteen (14) days after your telephone
call. We will charge you a fee for each stop payment order you give. Once you have
placed a stop payment order on a pre-authorized transfer, we will not make any more
preauthorized transfers to the person you were going to pay until we receive a new
written authorization from you. We will honor only the exact information given to us and
we are not responsible if the information is not correct. Once you have placed a stop
payment order on a preauthorized transfer, we will not make any more preauthorized
transfers to the person whom you were going to pay until we receive a new written
authorization from you.

Protecting Your Accounts
You acknowledge that your Accounts are subject to growing and constantly changing
risks of unauthorized or fraudulent activity from sources inside and outside your
company, and that you have responsibility for addressing these risks and working to
prevent fraudulent or unauthorized use of your Accounts. In addition to the following,
we offer useful information about protecting your accounts on our website, and we
encourage you to review that information.
Internal Controls. You agree to institute and maintain reasonable and effective
procedures to prevent fraud, misuse and unauthorized use of your Accounts and to ensure
the security of your checks and check stock, account numbers, security procedures,
access devices, access to the Accounts and your internal procedures Including those anti-
fraud measures we provide or make available on our website or through customer
communications ("Anti-Fraud Measures"). You represent and warrant that you have in
place and will enforce effective internal controls including Anti-Fraud Measures to
ensure that the Accounts are used by your personnel only if authorized by you.
Bank Services. In addition to the Anti-Fraud Measures you can implement on your own,
we offer a variety of Services designed to assist you in reducing or stopping the incidence
of check, ACH and other fraud and unauthorized activity in your Accounts including
positive pay, ACH transaction control, disbursement control and information reporting
and Account management Services. To the extent you choose not to use one of these
Services or fail to implement or take Anti-Fraud Measures reasonable for your Accounts,
and the use of that Service or Anti-Fraud Measure could reasonably have prevented the
incidence of fraud, unauthorized activity or loss suffered by you, you will be deemed to
have assumed the risk of such fraud, unauthorized activity or loss so suffered and you
will be precluded from asserting that we are responsible for such fraud, unauthorized
activity or loss.
Lost Checks or Devices. You must notify us as soon as possible of any known or
suspected loss, theft, or unauthorized use of your checks or any card, code, or access
device. Until we have received and had a reasonable opportunity to act on such notice,
we may maintain debits and honor transactions effected in your Account (except as
otherwise provided by law)through the use of any such checks, card,code or device. We
may close the Account, permit withdrawals by you or issue new evidence of an Account
on such conditions as we may require.
Account Access. We offer for your convenience and protection various methods and
procedures (including cards, access devices, ID's and passwords) by which you can use,
access and obtain information about your Accounts. While these methods embody or
require security procedures, we cannot absolutely ensure against"unauthorized" inquiries
or transactions using these procedures. You agree that you are fully responsible for, and
release us from all liability for, the release of Account or balance information to, and
transactions by, any person who uses any access device or your Account access
information to execute transactions or gain such information.
11
Account Holds. If we suspect or are alerted to a security breach, fraud or other apparently
unauthorized activity in or affecting your Account, you agree that we may suspend or
freeze the Account or place a hold on some or all of the funds in the affected Account.
You understand that such actions may mean that valid transactions in the affected
Account are returned or not processed, and release us from any and all for our actions.
FDIC Insurance
The FDIC protects the depositors of insured banks against loss of their deposits due to a
bank failure. The basic amount of deposit insurance is $250,000 per depositor.
Insurance coverage is dependent upon account ownership categories and is subject to
FDIC requirements.
Certificate of Deposits(CD)
CD Terms range from seven days to seven years. No additional deposits or withdrawals
are accepted. Penalty for early withdrawal is based on the term of the CD (see below).
CDs are FDIC-insured up to the maximum amount permitted by law.
CD Interest Rates and Yields. Current interest rates and annual percentage yields are
available at all Fifth Third Banking Centers. The interest rate will remain the same until
the maturity date of the CDs. The annual percentage yield assumes interest remains on
deposit until maturity. A withdrawal of interest will reduce earnings. Interest begins to
accrue on the business day of deposit. Interest will be calculated using the daily balance
method. This method applies a periodic rate to the balance in the account each day. For
CDs issued in an amount less than $100,000, interest is compounded continuously. For
CDs issued in an amount of$100,000 or more and with a term greater than one month,
interest is compounded if"Capitalized" is selected as the interest payment method. All
CDs issued in the amount of $100,000 or more will compound and credit interest
monthly if"capitalized" is selected. For CDs with a term of one month or less,the simple
interest method is used, interest is not compounded and interest is paid at maturity.
Interest Credit. Depending upon the account term, interest may be credited to the CD,
credited to a Fifth Third checking or savings Account, or received in the form of a check.
If the interest payment method is by "Transfer," "Check" or "Capitalized," interest may
be credited monthly (with a principal balance of $5,000 or more), quarterly, semi-
annually, annually or at maturity. For variable rate CDs, the interest rate and annual
percentage yield may change. Interest will not be paid after the maturity date unless the
Account is renewed. If the CD is closed before accrued interest is credited, interest will
not be paid.
CD Renewals. If you choose the automatic renewal feature for your Certificate of
Deposit, there is a one-day grace period (for terms of less than 32 days) or a ten-day
grace period (for terms of 32 days or more) after the maturity date to redeem it without
penalty. Interest will not be paid after the maturity date unless the Account is renewed. If
you do not choose the automatic renewal feature for your Certificate of Deposit, interest
will not be paid after the maturity date unless the Account is renewed.
12
CD Penalties for Early Withdrawal.
For CD's with a term of 7 days to 89 days, the Penalty for early withdrawal is 1/2 stated
interest for the remaining term, 7 days interest or all interest earned, whichever is greater,
and the minimum deposit is $5,000.
For CD's with a term of 90 days to 364 days, the penalty for early withdrawal is 1/2
stated interest for the remaining term, three months interest or all interest earned,
whichever is greater, and the minimum deposit is$500.
For CD's with a term of 365 days to 84 months the penalty for early withdrawal is 1/2
stated interest for the remaining term, six months interest or all interest earned, whichever
is greater, and the minimum deposit is $500.
We may from time to time offer promotional CDs. Promotional CDs may require a
minimum deposit and will be subject to early withdrawal penalties stated in the
promotion.
General Account Matters
Account Forms. All checks, withdrawal slips and deposit slips (collectively, `forms")
must be obtained through us or comply with our specifications. You are responsible for
verifying the accuracy of all information on the forms you use. Our liability, if any, for
any printing errors on forms obtained through us is limited to the cost of replacement.
We are not responsible for losses you may incur attributable to your use of forms not
obtained through us or that do not strictly comply with our specifications. If you use
checks not provided by us, you must obtain our MICR specifications and provide us with
a sample of 50 checks and deposit slips for testing prior to use. You may be required to
reprint or modify your checks at your expense if we encounter rejects or problems in
testing your documents.
Account Usage. You acknowledge and agree that (a) we have no obligation to examine
or question the source of any funds deposited in your Accounts, and (b) if you establish
any Accounts for which you are acting in a fiduciary, agency, escrow or other
representative capacity, then you are solely responsible to the principals, beneficiaries
and others with an interest in connection with any such Account. We are not responsible
for monitoring your actions, verifying your compliance with any governing instruments
or other obligations you may have.
Checking Subaccounts. For regulatory and our internal accounting purposes, each
checking account will consist of a checking subaccount and a non-interest bearing
savings subaccount. Checks, debits and other items presented for payment will be posted
to the checking subaccount. We may transfer funds between these subaccounts from time
to time as follows. We may establish a threshold balance for your checking subaccount
by reviewing the master account historic activity to determine the amount not routinely
needed to pay debits ("threshold balance"). If the balance in your checking subaccount
13
during any calendar month exceeds this threshold balance, we may transfer the excess
funds to the savings subaccount. We may also sweep the entire balance of your checking
subaccount into the savings subaccount during the weekend when no items will post to
your account. If the balance in your checking subaccount falls below the threshold
balance during any calendar month, we will transfer funds to your checking subaccount
from your savings subaccount sufficient to restore the checking subaccount to the
threshold balance. We may not make more than six transfers out of the savings
subaccount during any calendar month. If a sixth transfer is necessary, all funds in the
savings subaccount will be transferred to the checking subaccount for the remainder of
the calendar month. In that event, at the end of the calendar month, we will transfer
funds in excess of the threshold balance from the checking subaccount to the savings
subaccount. Because the savings subaccount is used for internal purposes only, you
cannot access it directly. Our transfers of funds into and out of the savings subaccount
will be the only transactions on the savings subaccount. Transfers between subaccounts
will not appear on your statement and will not be subject to any fees. The combined
balances of both subaccounts will be used to determine the balance of your account for
any minimum balance requirement or any other reason that a balance is considered. For
interest-bearing checking accounts, the subaccounts will not affect your use of your
interest-bearing checking account, funds availability,or the interest paid on your account.
The interest rate that applies to your interest-bearing checking account will apply to both
subaccounts.
Electronic Access. If you access your Accounts through our internet portal, by telephone
or similar means, your authorization to us to carry out your instructions or enable access
to your accounts may be given by the use of codes, personal identification numbers,
passwords, private keys, and similar means. All communications and access to your
Account using such methods are deemed valid,authentic and duly authorized by you.
Disclosing Information
We will maintain the privacy of information about you, your accounts and your
transactions in accordance with Applicable Law and our Commercial Privacy Policy that
is available via the Internet at www.53.com or upon request.
Indemnity and Limitations
YOU AGREE TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW THAT IN NO
EVENT WILL WE BE LIABLE OR RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL,
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL (INCLUDING ATTORNEYS' FEES), PUNITIVE OR
INDIRECT LOSS OR DAMAGE THAT YOU OR ANY OTHER PERSON MAY
INCUR OR SUFFER IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACCOUNT OR YOUR USE OF
ANY ACCOUNT, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGES OR COULD REASONABLY FORESEE SUCH LOSS
OR DAMAGE.
You further agree,to the maximum extent permitted by law,that our liability to you
arising in any way from the Accounts and your use of the Accounts will be limited to
14
actual monetary damages that are the direct result of our failure to exercise reasonable
care.
You agree to indemnify and hold us and our officers, directors, employees, affiliates,
shareholders and agents harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities,

fees and expenses ("Losses") resulting directly or indirectly from, or arising in
connection with: (a) your breach of any obligation to us; (b) your violation of Applicable
Law; (c) your use of the Account and any transaction in the Account; and (d) our
complying with or carrying out any instruction or other direction given to us in
accordance with these Rules. You are not, however, obligated to indemnify us for any
Loss directly resulting from our gross negligence or bad faith.
Termination
We reserve the right to close your Accounts, with or without cause, at any time. You
may,at any time,close the Accounts after we have received written notice and have had a
reasonable opportunity to act on it. The existence of a zero balance in an Account does
not itself terminate an Account. Our rights under these Rules will survive the closing or
termination of your Accounts.

legality, or enforceability of the other provisions of these Rules will not be affected or
impaired by such holding.
Waiver. We may waive, but only in writing, any provision of these Rules, but the waiver
will apply only to that provision and on that occasion. In no event is any waiver or series
of waivers to be construed as creating or requiring a waiver of any provision in the future.

availability of funds. The Expedited Funds Availability Act gives the Federal Reserve
Board powers to increase the speed of check clearings. As a result, Fifth Third Bank is
required to notify you of the details of this regulation which affect the availability of
funds deposited to your checking Account.
For deposits made on Saturday, Sunday or a Federal Holiday, the day of your deposit is
the next business day. "Business Day" is defined for purposes of this Availability Policy
as Monday through Friday, excluding federal holidays or as otherwise posted in the
Banking Center.
If you make a deposit at any affiliate banking center on a Business Day that the affiliate
banking center is open and prior to closing, we will consider that day to be the day of
deposit. However, if you make a deposit on a day that we are not open or after the
banking center is closed, we will consider that the deposit was made on the next Business
Day that we are open. Contact your local banking center or www.53.com for additional
information on your banking center's hours of business. Funds received after certain cut-
off times for certain channels and products may be credited as of the next business day.
The earliest cut-off time for funds transferred to your checking Account using Fifth Third
Direct is 7:00 PM EST. To determine if later cut-off times are available, please contact
your local banking center.
The "day of deposit" for deposits made at an Automated Teller Machine (ATM) at or
after 2:00 PM (7:00 PM in Western Pennsylvania, Georgia and North Carolina, St. Louis,
Tampa, Central Ohio, South Florida, Central Florida or Chicago) local time is the next
Business Day.
Funds from cash, wire transfer and electronic direct deposits to your Account will be
available on the day we receive the deposit.
The types of deposits available on the first business day after the day your deposit is
received by a Fifth Third Bank employee are:
• U.S. Treasury checks that are payable to you,
• Federal Reserve Bank checks that are payable to you,
• Federal Home Loan Bank checks that are payable to you,
• Postal money orders that are payable to you.
• State and local government checks *
• Cashier's checks *
• Certified checks *
* A special deposit slip must be obtained from a Fifth Third Bank customer service
representative in order to process these types of deposits for next day availability,
provided the Item(s) are payable to you and deposited into your Account.
22
If you do not make your deposit of the Items listed above in person to a Fifth Third Bank
employee (for example if you mail the deposit), funds will be available no later than the
second business day after the day your deposit is received.
If you present an item to be cashed, we may place a hold on a corresponding amount of
available funds in your Account for the same amount of time the funds would not have
been available had the item been deposited into your Account.
Availability of Other Check Deposits
The availability of funds for commercial and business accounts, in most cases, is as
follows:
1. The first $200 from a deposit of a check(s) will be available on the first
business day after the day of your deposit. The remaining funds will be available no later
than the second business day after the day of your deposit.
2. In the case of some credit union drafts that are payable through another bank,
the determining factor will be the location of the credit union, not the payable through
bank whose routing number may appear on the check.
Deposits Made At Automated Teller Machines (ATM)
Deposits, including deposits made from a transfer between Accounts, made before 2:00
PM, 7:00 PM in Western Pennsylvania, Georgia and North Carolina, St. Louis, Tampa,
Central Ohio, South Florida, Central Florida or Chicago) local time on a regular business
day, at a Fifth Third Bank ATM will be treated as deposited that day. Deposits made at
and after 2:00 PM (7:00 PM in Western Pennsylvania, Georgia and North Carolina, St.
Louis, Tampa, Central Ohio, South Florida, Central Florida or Chicago) local time on a
regular business day or on a non-business day at a Fifth Third Bank ATM, will be treated
as deposited on the next business day. You will receive the first $100 from ATM non-
cash deposits received after 2:00 PM EST, but before 9:00 PM EST, on the day we
receive the deposit. Cash deposits received prior to 9 PM EST into an ATM with image
capabilities, where the deposit does not require an envelope or deposit slip, will be
available on the day we receive the deposit. Deposits made at a non Fifth Third Bank
ATM will be treated as deposited when received and credited by your Bank. Any item
deposited through an ATM may not, at our discretion, be considered a deposit until it is
accepted by us. For purposes of determining the applicable ATM cut-off time, the
location where the deposit account was opened will determine which ATM cut-off time
applies. Acceptance will occur when we place the item in the collection process. An
unprocessable item, including but not limited to unendorsed items, non-processable
items, etc, will not be considered a deposit. Deposits at an ATM may not be permitted
prior to Account opening. In all other respects, ATM deposits will be accorded the
availability described herein for the type of items deposited. ATM deposits are limited to
$50,000 for Fifth Third ATMs and $10,000 for all non-Fifth Third ATMs.
23
Extraordinary Circumstances
In some cases, funds that you deposit by check will not be available according to the
schedule defined herein.
If all the funds from your non-ATM deposit will not be available according to the
scenarios described herein, a customer service representative will notify you when your
funds will be available at the time you make your deposit. If we decide to take this action
after you leave the premises, we will mail you notice of when the funds will be available
by the business day after we receive your deposit (or the Business Day following the day
the facts upon which a determination to hold your funds become known to us).
If your deposit is not made directly to a bank employee, and if we decide to take this
action, we will mail you notice when the funds will be available by the business day after
we receive your deposit.
If you want to be sure when a particular deposit will be available for withdrawal, you
should ask us when the funds will be available. It's important to know that, even though
your Account may show available funds, the check you deposited may not be authentic or
may not have cleared the bank it was drawn on.
Extraordinary circumstances, which may delay the availability of funds deposited for a
longer period include, but are not limited to:
• Reason to believe the check deposited will not be paid.
• Checks totaling more than $5,000 that are deposited on the same day.
• A check is redeposited that has been returned unpaid.
• The deposit Account has been repeatedly overdrawn in the last six months.
• An emergency, such as failure of communications or computer equipment,
occurs.
• An operational issue has occurred, such as failure of an ATM owning
financial institution to timely balance or reconcile the ATM and/or the
ATM deposits.
Availability of funds will generally be no later than the seventh business day after the day
of your deposit.
24
The Following Applies To New Accounts During The First 30 Days
Funds from deposits of cash and the first $5,000 of a day's total deposits of cashier's,
certified, traveler's and state and local government checks will be available on the first
business day after the day your deposit is received by us provided all checks are payable
to you and you use a special deposit slip, if required. If you do not make this deposit in
person to one of our employees, the first $5,000 will be available on the second business
day after the day your deposit is received by us. The excess over $5,000 will be available

receive the deposit.
Funds from wire transfers into your Account will be available on the first Business Day
after the day we receive the transfer.
Funds from all other check deposits will be available no later than the ninth Business Day
after the day of your deposit.
An Account is not considered a new Account if you have had, within 30 calendar days
before the Account is established, another transaction Account with us for at least 30
calendar days.
Endorsements
The Expedited Funds Availability Act includes provisions to standardize check
endorsements.
As a depositor of checks,the regulation limits the location of your endorsement to the top
1.5 inches at the trailing edge of the check. The trailing edge is directly behind where the
"Pay to the Order" is printed. This is where most endorsements are usually placed.
Any marks below the 1.5 inches on the back of the check may obscure the bank's
information and ultimately result in a delay in returning the check, and could result in the
forfeiture of your right to the recovery of those funds.
Transfer Limitations
The following limitations apply:
25
• For security reasons, there are limits on the amount of cash withdrawals
from the Account that may be made from Fifth Third ATMs or other
ATMs.

Cards may be issued in the name of a group or department,or as a Nameless Card(as described below),and we can
enable you to effect transactions solely with a Card or Account number without a physical card or device. All use of
such Cards or Account number and transaction are considered as effected by a Card on the Account for purposes of
this Agreement. We will issue each Card for the original term indicated on the Card. Unless and until a Card has
been properly cancelled,the Card is valid and may be used for transactions,and a renewal or replacement Card will
be issued for it. Once issued as requested by you and subject to the provisions of this Agreement, you are solely
responsible for the use of the Card and for imposing and enforcing any limits or restraints you wish to impose on a
Cardholder's use of the Card.

violates your internal policies, controls or restrictions. Merchant category and velocity controls, when properly

administrator("Card Administrator") with the authority to administer and manage the use of the Card Service on
your behalf as further described in this Agreement and the User Guide including the authority to issue,impose limits
on and cancel Cards and accept and act on communications from us regarding the Card Service.

Subject to the limitation under"Fifth Third Use Liability Policy"in the following paragraph,you are required to pay
us whether or not the use of the Account,Card,account numbers or other incurrence of indebtedness was authorized
by you. Cancellation of a Card or termination of the Account does not in any way excuse your obligation to pay for
all purchases or other charges incurred against or in connection with the Account or with any Card or account
number through the effective time of the cancellation or termination. As used in this Agreement, the term
"Obligations" means (a) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of, and all interest, fees and charges on
advances made by us on or in connection with the Account, through the use of a Card, an account number or
otherwise (including any interest accruing after the commencement of any proceeding by or against you under the

the commencement of such proceeding),(b)all of your obligations and liabilities for the indemnification of us under
this Agreement,and(c)all fees,costs,charges,expenses,reimbursements and other similar obligations from time to
time owing to us under this Agreement. Payment of the Account balance is due in full monthly on the due date
specified by us in the set up process unless otherwise expressly agreed by you and us in the set up process as
evidenced by our implementation records("Payment Due Date").
Fifth Third Use Liability Policy. if you believe that a transaction on your Account was unauthorized, you must
notify us as soon as possible but not more than sixty (60) days after the transaction in question appears on your
Account Statement(as defined below). You will be required to provide us with reasonable information about the
transaction to enable us to investigate the matter,and to reasonably cooperate with us in any investigation. If you do
that, and the following conditions are met, you will not be responsible for the unauthorized transaction: (a) the
transaction was not effected by a current or former employee or other Cardholder designated by you;(b)there are no
past due obligations on the Account; and, (c) you have exercised reasonable care in safeguarding your Cards and
Account from unauthorized use including that you did not provide,directly, by implication or otherwise, the right to
use a Card or the Account to the person effecting the transaction, or receive any tangible benefit from the
transaction. If the conditions in this paragraph are satisfied, we will credit your Account for the amount of the
transaction in question and any fees and interest that may have been applied or accrued as a result of that transaction.
In addition, MasterCard or other payment network associated with the Cards, if any(a"Payment Network") may
offer a liability protection program; contact the Payment Network for additional information. We will provide a
copy of the Payment Network's program literature upon request. If we have issued fewer than ten Cards in
connection with the Account,your liability for a series of unauthorized uses cannot exceed either$50 or the value
obtained through the unauthorized use before the card issuer is notified,whichever is less. The term"unauthorized
use" means the use of a credit card by a person, other than the Cardholder, who does not have actual, implied, or
apparent authority for such use,and from which the Cardholder and you receive no benefit.
4. Periodic Account Statements
Effect. After the close of each billing cycle,we will mail or transmit to you an Account Statement,with transactions
on each Card or Account number during the billing cycle itemized separately as subaccounts on the main Account
("Account Statement"). You may also request in writing that we mail or transmit individual statement memos to
each Cardholder at a specified address. The Account Statement will show transactions that have been posted to the
Account in connection with any Card since the last Account Statement, any payments and adjustments to the
Account,any fees charged to any Card or the Account,any finance charges,the outstanding balances on each Card
and on the Account and the Payment Due Date.
Discrepancies. Except for matters subject to Section 3, if there is a discrepancy between your records and the
information shown on any Account Statement or other confirmation,or you discover any other error in an Account
Statement or confirmation, you must notify us within thirty (30) calendar days after you receive such Account
Statement or confirmation, or within such greater amount of time as may be required by applicable law. You must
also follow the procedures described in the User Guide. if you fail to notify us within such 30-day period or fail to
follow the prescribed procedures,you may be precluded from asserting the discrepancy against us and you will be
obligated to us as provided on the applicable Account Statement. All entries in our books, records and accounts
shall constitute conclusive evidence of transactions unless you furnish proof of manifest error.
Foreign Currency Transactions. To convert transactions made in foreign currencies into U.S. dollars, the relevant
Payment Network will use its then-current currency conversion rates and the procedures established by such
3
Payment Network in its sole discretion. Currently, the currency conversion rate used to determine the transaction
amount in U.S. dollars is generally either a wholesale market rate or a government-mandated rate in effect on the
date of the conversion, increased by the applicable conversion charge determined by the Payment Network,if any.
The currency conversion rate used on the conversion date may differ from the rate in effect on the date the
transaction occurred.
5. Making Payments
Payment Due Date. Payment of the full amount of the Account as shown on the Account Statement is always due
on or before the Payment Due Date shown on the Account Statement. The Card Service is a full pay Account -you
must pay in full the amount specified on the Account Statement. Any amount of the Account balance not timely
paid is subject to a finance charge as calculated by us based on the finance charge specified in the Fee Schedule.
Payments. Payments must be made in U.S. dollars. Except for payments made by Auto Debit as described below,
you are responsible for timely making payments in the form we accept for receipt at the destination we specify to
you on or before the date due. Payments not delivered or transmitted in that form to that destination will not be
treated as timely received. Payments received after 3:00 p.m.,Eastern Time,on any business day or on a day which
is not a business day will be credited on the next business day. Credit to any Card or the Account may be delayed
for up to five days if the payment is not(a)made in U.S.dollars drawn on or from a U.S.financial institution located
in the U.S.or by money order,or(b)accompanied by the proper account number and if not made electronically,not
accompanied by the top portion of the Account Statement. Delayed crediting may cause you to incur additional fees
and finance charges.
Debit Authorization. Unless you and we have agreed in writing to payment by another method,all payments on the
Account shall be made by direct automated clearinghouse(ACH)debits to your banking account with us or another
financial institution("Auto Debit"). You agree to complete an authorization form required by us and you authorize
us to initiate debit entries to the account with the financial institution you designate for the amount due on the
Account Statement until you have properly revoked the authorization. You agree to be bound by the NACHA
Operating Rules with respect to these ACH transactions. We agree to timely initiate Auto Debits for payments on
the Account subject to access to and availability of funds in,your bank account.
Application. We reserve the right to apply payments and other credits to the Account in any manner that we may
choose in our sole discretion. All credits for payments to the Account are subject to final payment or settlement by
the institution on which the item of payment was drawn or from which the electronic payment was made. Although
we may post payments as of the date we receive them,the available credit limit associated with the Account may not
be restored for up to five days after we receive the payment.
Credit Balances. Credit balances will be applied to the next Account Statement unless you and we expressly agree
otherwise.

Commercial Card Service Agreement (as amended from time to time, the "Card Agreement")
currently in effect between the "Customer" identified on the Signature Page ("you") and Fifth
Third Bank ("we" or "us"). Capitalized Terms used but not defined in this document have the
meaning assigned to them in the Card Agreement.
In consideration of the mutual agreements of the parties set forth in this Rebate
Amendment and your commitment to use the Cards and Account,the parties agree as follows:
1. Definitions. As used in this Rebate Amendment, the following terms have the indicated

for a Calendar Year by the number of transactions that generated the Qualified Volume
for that Calendar Year as calculated by us.
"Calendar Year" means the period from January 1 of a year through December 31 of the
same year; if the Effective Date is other than January 1, the first Calendar Year will be
deemed to commence on the execution date of this Rebate Amendment and end on
December 31 of the same year as the Effective Date, and the last Calendar Year shall be
deemed to end on the date of the expiration or termination of the Rebate Term (as
defined below) and to begin on the immediately preceding January 1 of the same year in
which the expiration or termination occurred.
"Card Losses" mean the amount of charge-offs and other losses we incur in connection
with your Account as a result of your failure to pay any amount owing on the Account as
principal, interest or fees or other charges, but not including amounts not chargeable to
you under the Card Agreement as a result of the Fifth Third Use Liability Policy.
"Discount Transactions" mean transactions that are subject to discount interchange
rates that are less than large ticket interchange rates as established and designated by
MasterCard International, Inc. ("MasterCard").
"Effective Date" means, if the execution date of this Rebate Amendment is the first
calendar day of a month, that date; otherwise, the first day of the first full calendar
month after the execution date.

"Large Ticket Transactions" or "LTI" mean transactions that qualify for reduced
interchange rates as established and designated by the respective association
(MasterCard or Visa).
"Qualified Volume" means the US dollar amount of transactions for the purchase of
goods and services attributable to a MasterCard Card issued under the Card Agreement
during the period of calculation excluding: (a) the principal amount of any balance
transfer, cash advances or checks, credits and returns, account fees, finance charges,
transaction fees, delinquency fees, over-the-limit fees, and any other fees imposed by
us, MasterCard or another entity; (b) Card Losses; and (c) any other amounts not
chargeable to you under the terms of the Card Agreement including by virtue of the
Fifth Third Use Liability Policy or similar protection plan provided by MasterCard or
otherwise. "Qualified Volume" may also be referred to as "Spend" or"Rebate Spend."
2. Rebate.
Determination. Subject to the fulfillment of the Rebate Conditions (as defined below),
we will pay to you for each Calendar Year during the Rebate Term a rebate ("Rebate") equal to
the sum of the following products:
(a) your Qualified Volume for such Calendar Year (excluding Large Ticket Transactions
and Discount Transactions) multiplied by the applicable payment percentage ("Rebate
Percentage") in the row corresponding to your total Qualified Volume (including Large Ticket
Transactions and Discount Transactions)and under column corresponding to your ATS for such
Calendar Year, all as set forth in the Rebate Table included on Exhibit A; plus
(b) your Qualified Volume of Large Ticket Transactions in such Calendar Year multiplied
by the lower of (1) the Rebate Percentage for Large Ticket Transactions specified on Exhibit A
and (ii)the Rebate Percentage applied under clause (a) above to your Qualified Volume; plus
(c) your Qualified Volume of Discount Transactions in such Calendar Year multiplied by
the lower of(i) the Rebate Percentage for Discount Transactions specified as Exhibit A and (ii)
the Rebate Percentage applied under clause (a)above to your Qualified Volume.
Subject to the terms of the paragraph entitled "Rebate Conditions" below, for any
Calendar Year for which a Rebate is payable that is less than twelve months, your actual
Qualified Volume for such period will be annualized to determine the applicable rebate tier and
the actual Qualified Volume for such period will be multiplied by the Rebate Percentage in the
applicable tier so determined. If you do not meet the minimum Qualified Volume level
specified in the Rebate Table for a Calendar Year, no Rebate will be payable for that Calendar
Year. This Rebate Amendment is not valid unless Exhibit A including a Rebate Table is
attached or deemed attached to this Rebate Amendment at the time of signing this Rebate
Amendment.

Card Losses. There will be deducted from each Rebate otherwise payable to you the
amount of all Card Losses attributable to the Calendar Year in which the Rebate was earned or
any subsequent period.
Calculation. We will calculate the Qualified Volume, ATS and applicable Rebate in good
faith and our determination will be final in the absence of manifest error. Your Rebate will be
paid to you within the first quarter following the Calendar Year in which the Rebate was earned.
Rebate Conditions. To be eligible for the Rebate for a Calendar Year, you must: (a)
maintain the Account in good standing throughout such Calendar Year by timely paying all
amounts due on the Account each month in accordance with the Card Agreement and
otherwise being in compliance with, and not in default under the Card Agreement; (b) continue
to actively use the Account during the entire Calendar Year; and (c) not have reduced your
Qualified Volume due to use of, or transition to, a competing card or service, during the 90 days
following the end of the Calendar Year (other than following expiration or termination of the
Rebate Term) (the "Rebate Conditions"). In addition, if this Rebate Amendment or the Card
Agreement is terminated by you for any reason or is terminated by us as a result of a Rebate
Default (as defined in Section 3), you will be deemed to have failed to meet the Rebate
Conditions for the Calendar Year in which such termination occurs. If the Rebate Conditions
are not satisfied in or with respect to any Calendar Year, you are not entitled to a Rebate for
that Calendar Year.
Reports and Information. We will provide the calculations and supporting Qualified
Volume and ATS documentation available to us for the Rebate upon your reasonable request.
You agree to provide validation and documentation reasonably satisfactory to us of any
transaction or other information we reasonably request to verify or support the Qualified
Volume, ATS and calculation of the Rebate, and we may condition or withhold payment
pending receipt of such information.
Adjustment Events. Your Rebate terms have been established based in part on certain
assumptions relating to a number of external conditions including interest rate and market
conditions, your financial condition, and current regulatory requirements (including
interchange rates and restrictions). Should a significant change in such conditions or
requirements occur, we reserve the right to adjust your Rebate terms to reflect the effect of
such change on us as determined by us in good faith. We will give you not fess than ninety (90)
days notice of the implementation of any such adjustment.
ATS. We may, for our own internal accounting purposes, obtain from or establish with
you an estimated ATS but your Rebate will be calculated based on the actual ATS for the
Calendar Year.

term of this Rebate Amendment ("Rebate Term") shall commence on the date this Rebate
Amendment is executed and shall expire on the day immediately preceding the third
anniversary of the Effective Date; provided however, that unless either party gives to the other
party written notice of non-renewal of the Rebate Term not later than sixty (60) days prior to
the expiration of the stated Rebate Term, the Rebate Term shall automatically be extended on
a month-to-month basis until such time as this Rebate Amendment is terminated by either
party upon sixty (60) days prior written notice. This Rebate Amendment and the Rebate Term
terminate automatically upon the termination of the Card Agreement. We may terminate this
Rebate Amendment immediately in our discretion at any time by giving you written notice (a)
upon the occurrence of any default under the Card Agreement or any material breach of this
Rebate Amendment by you or (b) upon any default by you in connection with any loan or
advance we or any of our affiliates have made to you, or under any other indebtedness,
obligation or liability you owe to us or any of our affiliates, whether now existing or arising in
the future (any such event in clause (a)or(b), a "Rebate Default").

you and we agree to keep confidential all information relating to this Rebate Amendment
including the existence, terms and conditions of this Rebate Amendment, and to not disclose
such information except to those individuals within our respective organizations with a
reasonable need to know such information. Each of us acknowledges that, in the event of a
breach of this Section 4, the non-breaching party will likely suffer irreparable damage that
cannot be fully remedied by monetary damages. Accordingly, in addition to any remedy that
the non-breaching party may possess pursuant to applicable law, the non-breaching party has
the right to seek and obtain injunctive relief against any such breach in any court of competent
jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions and obligations set forth in this
Section 4 do not apply to the extent you are subject to freedom of information, open
government or similar laws or regulations requiring you to disclose any such information.
5. Effect. This Rebate Amendment amends the Card Agreement solely for purposes of
establishing a rebate opportunity for you during the Rebate Term. All provisions of the Card
Agreement not inconsistent with this Rebate Amendment shall remain unchanged and in full
force and effect, and are ratified and confirmed. In the case of any irreconcilable conflict
between the various provisions in the Card Agreement and this Rebate Amendment, the
provisions of this Rebate Amendment shall prevail to the extent necessary to resolve the
conflict.
6. Miscellaneous. We and you each represent and warrant to each other that this Rebate
Amendment has been authorized by all necessary corporate or other entity action, and that the
person signing this Rebate Amendment is duly authorized to do so. This Rebate Amendment
evidences the entire agreement and understanding between us with respect to the payment of
a rebate to you, and supersedes all prior agreements and discussions between us with respect
to the payment of a rebate to you.
