"Your") and TEZ Technologies LLC. ("TEZ, '.we, "'our," or "us") and govern Your access and use of all or
any part of the Payment Services (defined below). By using any of the Payment Services, You accept
and will be legally bound to our General Terms of Service ("General Terms"), these Payment Terms, and
all other terms, policies, and guidelines applicable to the Payment Services.

may receive from us. If there is any conflict between these Payment Terms and the General Terms, the
terms of these Payment Terms will control to the extent of the conflict. Capitalized terms not specifical-
ly defined herein have the meanings set forth in the General Terms.

all applicable federal, state, and local laws, statutes, regulations, rules, ordinances, codes, and court
orders, and all applicable regulatory orders, directives, and guidance that govern or affect these
Payment Terms or the subject matter hereof ("Law"), and (b) the bylaws, operating rules, regulations,
policies, and procedures of any applicable Card Brand, including the Payment Card Industry Data
Security Standard published by the PCI Security Standards Council and any manuals, guides, or bulle-
tins, as in effect from time to time ("Rules").
You are not required to accept any Card Brand as a condition of receiving the Payment Services. We
may remove or add Cards that you may accept for processing at any time without prior notice. These
Payment Terms are consistent with the Card Brands' requirement that You enter into a submerchant
or sponsored merchant agreement to receive Payment Services.
2. UNDERWRITING AND REQUIRED INFORMATION
After You complete an application for Payment Services, such Payment Services will not be available to
You unless and until TEZ confirms that You are eligible under the Rules and the Law to use the
Payment Services. You authorize TEZ to make any investigation of Your finances, activities, and opera-
tions that TEZ reasonably deems necessary to confirm Your eligibility for Payment Services. You agree
to provide TEZ with any information required to complete such investigation and authorize TEZ to
share such information with Processor and Bank as necessary to provide the Payment Services.
You agree that all information You provide is and will be accurate and complete, and agree to keep
such information up-to-date. Upon request, You agree to provide (i) the current addresses of all loca-
tions where or for which You accept Card payments, (ii) a list of all of Your assumed business names,

tez TEZ Payments - Additional Location Application
TECHNOLOGY

inquiries that TEZ reasonably deems necessary and authorize any credit reporting agency to compile
information to answer such inquiries and furnish that information to TEZ. You authorize TEZ to share

other principals, each in their individual capacities, You agree to work with TEZ to obtain any necessary

ficial owners, officers, and other associated individuals, and any individuals that have access to the
Payment Services. Upon request, You will provide TEZ, Processor, Bank, or the Card Brands, as applica-
ble, the documentary and other evidence of Your identity and that of Your beneficial owners and other

3. EQUIPMENT
In the event You rent or purchase any equipment from TEZ in connection with the Payment Services,

4. CARD ACCEPTANCE REQUIREMENTS
You will honor any valid Card properly tendered by a person asserting to be a person authorized to use
a Card or the accounts established in connection with a Card ("Cardholder"). You agree to accept for
payment, and will not engage in any practice or procedure that discriminates against, or discourages
the use of, any Card issued by each Card Brand for which You have elected to receive Payment
Services. You will only accept Cards for Transactions that are bona fide sales of Your goods or services.
You will properly disclose to the Cardholder at the time of the Transaction Your name, return policy,
and any limitations You may have on accepting returned goods. Your refund polices for purchases
made with a Card must be at least as favorable as Your refund policy for purchases made with any
other form of payment. You may set a minimum Transaction amount to accept a Card, provided that
such minimum does not differentiate among Card issuers or among Card Brands and that such mini-
mum complies with the Federal Reserve's limits for Transaction minimums.
You understand and agree that Your Payment Services account with TEZ may only be used to process
payments through the existing TEZ systems and services described in the General Terms. At this time,
TEZ does not provide virtual terminal services or other stand-alone payment processing services.
You are required to obtain the Cardholder's approval ("Authorization") for each Transaction and include
the Authorization when transmitting each Transaction. Authorizations are not a guarantee of accep-
tance or payment of a Transaction, do not waive any provision of these Payment Terms, and do not
otherwise validate a fraudulent Transaction or a Transaction involving the use of an expired Card. TEZ,
Processor, or Bank may refuse to authorize any Transaction. All Transactions are subject to audit and
verification by TEZ, Processor, or Bank and may be adjusted for inaccuracies. All credits provided to You
are provisional and subject to chargebacks and adjustments in accordance with the Rules, irrespective
of whether a Transaction is returned or reversed by the Card issuer. A chargeback means any reversal,
return, or invalidation of a Transaction (or portion of a Transaction) through a Card Brand. You will
retain a copy of the sales transmittal for each completed Transaction in accordance with the Rules and
tez TEZ Payments - Additional Location Application
TECHNOLOGY I
the Law. Upon request by Processor or Bank, You will provide copies of sales transmittals and other
Transaction evidence. For any recurring Transactions, You will obtain and retain any consents and
provide any notices, as required by the Rules and the Law.
Significant portions of the Card Brand Rules are available to the public at https://visa.com, https://ww-
w.mastercard.com, and https://www.americanexpress.com/merchantopguide.
S. COMPLIANCE WITH THE RULES AND THE LAW
You agree to comply with these Payment Terms, the Rules, and the Law, including anti -money laun-
dering and economic sanctions Laws. In the event of any conflict between the terms of these Payment
Services and the Rules or the Law, the terms of the Rules or the Law will prevail.
You agree to assist TEZ, Processor, and Bank in monitoring Your compliance with the Rules and the
Law. TEZ, Processor, or Bank, each in its sole discretion, may suspend processing Transactions for a
reasonable period of time required to investigate suspicious or unusual activity, and each will have no
liability for any of Your losses arising from any such suspension. TEZ, Processor, or Bank, each in its sole
discretion, may reverse any Transaction that violates these Payment Terms, the Rules, or the Law, and
You agree to reimburse TEZ, Processor, or Bank, as applicable, for any such reversal.

7. USE OF BRAND MARKS AND OTHER MARKS
The Card Brands are the sole and exclusive owners of their respective trade names, trademarks, service
marks, logos, and logo types ("Brand Marks") and any promotional or instructional materials provided to
You that use or contain any Brand Marks. Your use of Brand Marks must comply with the Rules and the
Law. Processor and Bank are the sole and exclusive owners of their respective trademarks, marks, and
logos, and Your use of such marks must comply with Processor's and Bank's express policies and written
instructions and the Law. At any time and without prior notice, Card Brands may require a change in or
prohibit Your use of Brand Marks. Your right to use Brand Marks and, if applicable, Processor's and Bank's
marks, will cease upon termination of these Payment Terms, and You agree not to contest the ownership
of all such marks for any reason.
8. SETTLEMENT, PAYOUT SCHEDULE, AND TRANSACTION DISPUTES
You agree to establish and maintain one or more deposit accounts to be the designated "Transaction
Account" to receive the funds processed through the Payment Services for Cardholder Transactions
("Transaction Funds"). You will provide TEZ with complete information regarding the Transaction
Account and any other information for each location as requested by TEZ.
You authorize TEZ (or its service providers) to initiate credits and debits to the Transaction Account
through the Automated Clearinghouse ("ACH") System. Such authorization will remain in full force and
effect until thirty (30) days after TEZ receives written notice from You of termination of this ACH authori-
zation. TEZ reserves the right to terminate or suspend Payment Services at any time if You fail to provide
an active Transaction Account with an ACH authorization. To ensure proper remittance of Transaction
Funds, You are solely responsible for providing TEZ with accurate contact, payment, and account infor-
mation for each Transaction Account, including any applicable tax information.
You agree that the deposit of Transaction funds to the Transaction Account discharges TEZ, Processor,
and Bank of any settlement obligation to You and that any dispute regarding the receipt or amount of
settlement will be between TEZ and You. You agree that TEZ, Processor, and Bank have no settlement
obligation to You regarding the proceeds from any Transaction that violates these Payment Terms, the
Rules, or the Law.
Transaction Funds, less any amounts TEZ is authorized to deduct or withhold under these Payment
Terms, will be remitted to You by ACH to the Transaction Account in accordance with the Payment
Schedule. Amounts owed to You will be calculated solely based on records maintained by TEZ. It is Your
responsibility to promptly and consistently inspect Your Transaction and settlement history, and You
must immediately report any possible errors to TEZ. If You believe TEZ has failed to remit or has made an
error in the remittance of Transaction funds as set forth herein, You must notify TEZ in writing within
ninety (90) days of the date You purport such failure or error in remittance would have been due, specify-
ing in reasonable detail the amounts You believe are owed. Your failure to so notify TEZ will result in Your
waiver of any claim relating to such disputed remittance. In the event You fail to make any required
payments to TEZ when due, TEZ reserves the right to withhold Transaction Funds until such payments
have been made in full.
VXfl*111AWTJAVt[dK01,1111 ZIN
TEZ may, in its sole discretion or at the direction of Processor or Bank, establish and maintain a deposit
account to be funded by You as security for Your current and future obligations under these Payment
Terms. TEZ will determine the amount of such reserve, and You agree to deposit that amount in the
reserve account. You agree that TEZ may initiate ACH debits to the Transaction Account or withhold
amounts that TEZ would otherwise pay to the Transaction Account for the purpose of establishing, main-
taining, or increasing the balance in the reserve account. TEZ may, without notice to You, apply funds in
tez TEZ Payments - Additional Location Application
TECHNOLOGY
he reserve account against any amounts owed by You under these Payment Terms. By executing this
these Payment Terms, You grant to TEZ a security interest in the funds held in any reserve account estab-
lished pursuant to this section. You will not be entitled to a return of any funds remaining in the reserve
account for 180 days following the later of termination of these Payment Terms or submission of Your last
Transaction. You will remain liable for all fees or amounts incurred after any such return of funds.
111#1090.7-►MIIMIlroli9]F911111 111AMUNI
Except for TEZ's limited role in processing payments, TEZ is not involved in any underlying sale of goods
or services by You. You agree that all disputes between You and any Cardholder relating to a Transaction
will be settled between You and the Cardholder. TEZ bears no responsibility for such disputes. You are
solely responsible for all customer service policies and issues relating to Your goods or services, including
pricing, order fulfillment, cancellations or no shows by You or a customer, returns, refunds and adjust-
ments, rebates, functionality and warranty, technical support, and feedback concerning experiences with
Your personnel, policies or processes. In performing customer service, You will always present yourself as
a separate entity from us.
Card Brand inquiries about Transactions may cause Processor or Bank to chargeback such Transactions.
Processor and Bank will offset the value of such chargebacks from the Transaction funds that will be
received by TEZ for remittance to You. If You disagree with a chargeback, You may request a chargeback
reversal within the applicable Card Brand's timeline in the Rules. TEZ, Processor, and Bank may revoke,
reverse, or offset any credit to You for a Transaction not made in compliance with these Payment Terms,
the Rules, or the Law or where such remittance to You was made erroneously.
You are subject to each Card Brand's acceptance guidelines, monitoring programs, activity reporting
requirements, and limits, including those relating to excessive credits, disputes, and chargebacks. Exces-
sive chargebacks may result in violation of the Rules, breach of these Payment Terms, and suspension of
the Payment Services.
11. FEES
You agree to pay to TEZ all service and processing fees and other charges specified in the Fee Schedule;
any adjustments, fees, penalties, or costs incurred by TEZ as a result of any dispute related to Transac-
tions; any liabilities or other amounts TEZ incurs as a result of fraudulent use of Your terminal for Authori-
zations, unauthorized use of or access to Cardholder Data on Your systems, or any other payment trans-
action alleged to have been processed through the Payment Service; and any fees, fines, or penalties
imposed by third parties (including Processor, Bank, and Card Brands) related to chargebacks or any
returned or cancelled Transaction funds remittance.
You authorize and direct TEZ to deduct and set off from Transaction funds the fees and other amounts
You owe under these Payment Terms, and You understand that the Transaction funds TEZ remits to You
will be net of these amounts. In the event that any set off against Transaction funds is not sufficient to
cover the fees and other amounts owed under these Payment Terms, You agree that TEZ may initiate an
ACH debit to any Transaction Account for such amounts. You agree to maintain sufficient funds in the
Transaction Accounts to satisfy all obligations to TEZ, Processor, and Bank contemplated by these
Payment Terms. If the fees and other amounts owed under these Payment Terms or an ACH debit for
such amounts causes the balance in a Transaction Account to be less than zero ($0), TEZ may charge an
overdraft fee or require that You make a wire transfer to the Transaction Accounts within one (1) banking
business day of notice.
From time to time, Processor, Bank, or Card Brands may change the fees each charges for Transactions.
TEZ will provide You with thirty (30) days written prior notice of all such changes, and Your submission of
a Transaction or continued use of the Payment Services after the effective date of such notice will be
deemed acceptance of such change.
