Evolve Bank & Trust
Business Account Agreement
Last Updated - April 2024

I. INTRODUCTION. This document, as amended or supplemented by the attached disclosures (collectively, this “Agreement”), contains the general terms, conditions and disclosures for the Evolve Bank & Trust commercial deposit account (the “Account”) and constitutes an agreement between the Bank (as defined below) and you. For purpose of this Agreement, the term “Account” may also collectively include Sub-Deposit Accounts of such Account. This Agreement also includes any disclosures or notices we may provide to you related to your Account. References to the “Bank,” “we,” “us,” or “our” means Evolve Bank & Trust, our successors, affiliates, and assignees. References to “you” and “your” means the entity that has applied for or holds the Account, is provided access to the Account or is an authorized user of the holder of the Account. This Agreement may be supplemented or amended as set forth in Section V(E) (Changes in Terms and Termination). Bank services and access and use of your Account may be provided to you through the website and/or smart phone application of our service provider, Holdings Financial Technologies Inc., at Holdings.io (the “Service Provider”). The Service Provider may provide additional services and products not as a service provider of Bank, such as [insert products that may be offered] (the “Service Provider Platform”), which may be offered to you pursuant and subject to the terms and conditions between you and the Service Provider (the “Services” and such terms and conditions, the “Service Provider Terms”), and such Services are not governed by this Agreement and not offered by Bank. Please see Section II(E) (Service Provider) for additional information.

By opening or continuing to maintain an Account with us, you agree to be bound by this Agreement, and all applicable agreements, disclosures, and other documents, as well as by all applicable federal or state laws, statutes and regulations. Please keep a copy of this Agreement for your future reference. We may decline to open an Account for any reason, or for no reason. We are not liable for any damages or liabilities resulting from refusal of an Account relationship.

THIS AGREEMENT IS SUBJECT TO MANDATORY ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT AND A WAIVER OF CLASS ACTION AND JURY PROVISION. PLEASE CAREFULLY READ SECTION IV (ARBITRATION AND WAIVERS).

II. THE ACCOUNT.

A. Availability. The Account is available to an entity legally operating in the U.S. and with a U.S. physical address. The Account is only available for business purposes only, and you must not use it for personal, family, or household purposes. The Account is a commercial account and does not provide consumer protections for unauthorized transactions or unauthorized access, including by way of lost or stolen account credentials. You acknowledge and understand that the Account will not be treated as a consumer account under the provisions of state and federal law. You are not entitled to open an Account under this Agreement if you are not a corporation, unincorporated business association, partnership, limited liability company, incorporated nonprofit organization or sole proprietorship. We reserve the right to close your Account if we determine that it is used for any impermissible purpose, as we may determine from time to time. To open an Account, you must provide any information we may request from time to time. Each owner of an Account shall have a continuing obligation to provide any other documentation we may request from time to time, including any information required under our customer identification program to establish your identity. You must also agree to go paperless. This means that: (1) you must keep us supplied with your valid email address and telephone number; and (2) you must agree to accept the Evolve Bank & Trust Electronic Communication Consent, which governs entering into electronic transactions and electronic delivery of all communications.

B. Account Type and Ownership. The Account is a transaction account and may not be opened as a joint account. You cannot give a security interest or pledge your Account to someone other than us without first getting our express written consent. We are not required to give consent to a security interest or pledge to someone else. Unless we agree in a separate writing otherwise, a security interest or pledge to someone else must be satisfied or released before any right to withdraw from the account can be exercised. You must immediately report to us any changes in Account ownership information that you originally provided to us in connection with the submission of your application for an Account.

You may designate authorized users to initiate transactions on your behalf or take any action under this Agreement that you may have taken, and any action taken by an authorized user shall be fully binding on you. You may not permit an authorized user to initiate a transfer, payment order or transaction in the absence of proper supervision and safeguards. If you permit another person to have access to the Account, this will be treated as if you authorized such use and you will be liable for all transactions and fees incurred by those persons. You are wholly responsible for the use of the Account according to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. You are liable for all transactions made with the Account by your authorized user(s). You are the Account owner and are responsible for all transactions and fees incurred by you or any authorized user(s). You may terminate the authority of any authorized user at any time by giving us prior notice of termination. To terminate access of an authorized user to the Account, call customer service at (888) 806-1639 and you must follow-up not later than ten (10) business days with the written notification to revoke (cancel) permission for any person you previously authorized to use your Account. Until we have received your written notice of such a revocation (cancelation) and have had a reasonable time to act upon the written notification of cancelation, you are responsible for all transactions and fees incurred by you or any authorized user. If you tell us to revoke (cancel) another person’s use of your Account, we may revoke (cancel) your Account credentials.

Except as otherwise provided by law, you shall be liable for any loss or damage to which your negligence contributed or which resulted in unauthorized, fraudulent, or dishonest acts by your current and/or former authorized users. Such liability includes instances when a current or former authorized user effects one or more payment orders or transactions or improper use of security procedures to effect a payment order or transaction to your detriment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, you are liable for all losses relating to unauthorized funds transfers that do not result solely from our negligence or intentional misconduct, unless the laws governing your account requires a lesser liability.

C. Opening an Account. To open an Account, you must submit to us an application and all information that we may require. You represent to the Bank that you are authorized to do business in the manner indicated to us and that the acts of person(s) opening the Account have been ratified and that all information submitted to us by and concerning you is true and complete and, to the extent applicable, reflects in all material respects the business, financial condition, and principal partners, owners, or officers of your business. You agree that the Bank may rely on such representations without requiring additional information or documentation and that you will furnish such information upon request. You are solely responsible for meeting any legal requirements to establish and maintain the type of Account requested and have a duty to inform us of the status of any change to your organization, including any change to the type of entity. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires us to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each customer who opens an Account. This means that when you open an Account, we will ask for your name, address, tax identification number, and other information that will allow us to identify you. Federal regulations require that you provide us with information concerning the beneficial owners of a legal entity at Account opening. We will request the name, address, date of birth, and taxpayer ID number or social security number of certain beneficial owners and a control person. We may also ask to see other identifying documents, such as a driver’s license, taxpayer identification number; passport number and country of issuance; alien identification card number; or number and country of issuance of any other government-issued document evidencing nationality or residence and bearing a photograph or similar safeguard. If, for any reason, you, any control person or beneficial owner are unable to provide the information necessary to verify your identity, the Account may be blocked or closed, which may result in additional fees assessed to the Account. You may also be asked to provide such information at other times (and on any qualifying account) upon request of the Bank. You shall have a continuing obligation to provide any other documentation we may request from time to time, including any information required under our customer identification program to establish your identity. If at any time we determine that the information you provided to us was false, incorrect, or of concern to the Bank, or if you refuse to provide, or delay in providing, us with the information when requested, we may close, block, restrict or freeze any or all of your Accounts. You represent and warrant that you have the power, and where applicable, each of your authorized users have the power, to execute and perform your obligations under this Agreement. We reserve the right to require you to furnish us with resolutions, agreements or documents as we may reasonably request to evidence the authority of individuals to act on behalf of the Account holder(s). It is agreed that the power and authority of each person named as authorized to take action with respect to the Account shall continue in full force and effect until we receive actual written notice of revocation, whether the same be brought about by dissolution or termination of the Account holder or otherwise.

By requesting to or opening an Account with us, you agree that we can gather personal information about you and/or your beneficial owners from one or more consumer reporting agencies, governmental entities and/or other third parties, including, but not limited to, the Service Provider to determine your eligibility for an Account. You also agree that we have the right to access follow-up consumer reports while your Account is open for maintenance, review or collection purposes.

Your Account will not be considered "opened" until it is funded. This means your balance must be at least a penny. Once your Account is considered “opened,” there is no minimum balance required and no maximum balance limit. However, we may, at our sole discretion and at any time, require a minimum balance and set a maximum balance limit.

D. BSA and OFAC Compliance Obligations. Among other compliance obligations imposed on us by the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”) (pursuant to the Bank Secrecy Act, as amended and supplemented from time to time (“BSA”)) and the Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), we are required to report certain transactions to FinCEN and OFAC (all such obligations, the “BSA/OFAC Compliance Obligations”). You acknowledge and agree that we may capture and transmit or disclose information collected from or about you in connection with this Agreement for the purpose of satisfying our BSA/OFAC Compliance Obligations, including without limitation information regarding you, your authorized users and beneficial owners, and your Account (for example, name, address, and Account number) and regarding beneficiaries (for example beneficiary’s name, address and Account number) to FinCEN or OFAC, as part of the processing of a payment order. You agree to assist us in connection with any requirements imposed on us in fulfilling our obligations under law, including without limitation the BSA/OFAC Compliance Obligations. You agree to observe and comply with all applicable law and all anti-money laundering and sanctions laws, including, without limitation the BSA and the Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, and each of OFAC’s economic and trade sanctions regulations in connection or related to your Account.

E. Service Provider. You understand that we have engaged the Service Provider to perform a number of services for you under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, identity verification, compliance monitoring, risk mitigation, and management of your Account and other services we may require. The Service Provider, along with its partners and agents, is the servicer of your Account. In that capacity, Service Provider may act on our behalf, perform our obligations and/or enforce our rights under this Agreement. You agree that you may only access the Account through the Service Provider. You may provide us with payment instructions and view certain Account information by using the Service Provider Platform. You understand that any payment instruction or activity performed using the Services shall be deemed authorized and valid and Bank is under no obligation to investigate the instruction or activity. Separate and apart from its role as our servicer, the Service Provider may also offer Services to you. We are neither responsible for the provisioning of such Services nor do we make any recommendations, representations, warranties or suggestions regarding such Services. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not have any liability in connection with the Services or Service Provider Platform and disclaim all warranties, either express or implied or statutory, including, but not limited to, any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, data (including unauthorized access), intellectual property infringement and/or lack of viruses related to the Services or Service Provider Platform. Subject to applicable law, in no event shall we be liable for any losses or damages related to your use of Services or Service Provider Platform.

III. USING YOUR ACCOUNT AND ACCOUNT DISCLOSURES.

A. Linking Accounts. You may link your bank account at another financial institution (“Linked Account”) to your Account in order to transfer funds between your Linked Account and your Account. You represent and warrant: (1) that you have the right to authorize any and all charges and debits to the Linked Account; (2) the Linked Account is held at a depository institution located in the U.S.; (3) you are individually or jointly the owner of the Linked Account; and (4) the Linked Account is a business purpose or commercial account. You will indemnify and hold us harmless from any claims by any person related to the Linked Account, including any other owner of the Linked Account. You are not permitted to link your Account with a credit, debit, gift, or other type of card issued by a third party or another bank. You may deposit funds into or withdraw funds from your Account by using the Service Provider Platform to initiate an Automated Clearing House transfer (“ACH Transfer”) to or from the Linked Account. We do not accept requests made otherwise to initiate ACH Transfers. Requests for ACH Transfers to debit the Linked Account that are made before 4:00 PM CST on a business day, shall be considered received on the business day the request is made. Requests for ACH Transfers to debit the Linked Account that are made after 4:00 PM CST on a business day or on a non-business day, shall be considered received the next business day.

B. Internal Transfer Between Accounts at the Bank. We may (but are not obligated to) permit you to initiate a transfer of funds between your accounts at the Bank through a Service Provider Platform. We do not accept requests made otherwise to initiate internal transfers.

C. Cash-Pick Up. We may (but are not obligated to) allow you to participate in Mastercard Cash Pick-Up, whereby you may send or cash disbursements to other persons. If Mastercard Cash Pick-Up is made available to you, it is subject to separate terms and conditions. By using Mastercard Cash Pick-Up, you authorize us and/or our agents to debit your Account for any cash disbursements you may request. We reserve the right to refuse to make any transfer for security, credit, legal/regulatory, or other reasons, as we determine in our sole discretion. You are responsible for all transactions you authorize using Mastercard Cash Pick-Up, including any losses, charges, or penalties incurred as a result.

D. Deposits. When you make a deposit, we will act only as your collection agent and will not be responsible beyond the exercise of good faith and ordinary care. All deposits are provisionally credited subject to our receipt of final payment. If a deposit or transfer of funds into your Account is returned or rejected by the paying financial institution for any reason, you agree that we may deduct the amount of the deposit or transfer against your Account, without prior written notice to you.

You may make a deposit into your Account by ACH Transfers or any other method we make available to you. You may also arrange for recurring deposits, such as direct deposits, to be made electronically to your Account.

i. We do not accept deposits by wire transfer, mail, cash, paper check or foreign currency deposits. We are not liable for wire transfers that you may attempt into your Account or deposits of any kind that you mail to us, including if it is lost in transit, lost in the mail, or otherwise not received by us. If you attempt to make a deposit through a prohibited means, the transaction will be rejected. If you mail us a cash deposit, we may send the cash back to you or, if you owe us funds, set off such amounts from the cash you send us. We may but are not obligated to accept checks. If you mail a paper check to us, including personal checks, money orders or cashier’s checks, we may either apply the check to any negative balance you may have on your Account or send the check back to you. We do not accept any deposits in foreign currency. Any deposits received in foreign currency, whether in the form of cash or check, will be sent back to you. We will send all items back to the address we have for you on file and we are not liable if you do not receive the return mail or cash or items.

ii. In addition to any other limitation set forth herein, you may only deposit with us funds that are immediately available, which under applicable law are irreversible and are not subject to any lien, claim or encumbrance.

E. Withdrawals. Subject to any limitations we may prescribe, you may make withdrawals from your Account up to the available balance in your Account by any means that we make available to you. We may refuse a withdrawal request exceeding the available funds in your Account even if you make a deposit in the day after we refuse your withdrawal request. If your available balance is not enough to pay a transaction you make, we may assess an insufficient or unavailable funds fee, regardless of whether we pay the transaction. We may allow withdrawals at any time, but reserve the right to require seven (7) days written notice of intention to withdraw funds from your Account if your Account is a negotiable order of withdrawal (NOW) account. You are not permitted to make withdrawals from your Account by creating a check drawn on your Account. If you attempt to make any transactions with your Account using a credit, debit, gift or other type of card issued by a third party or another bank or by creating a check drawn on your Account, we may reject and/or return the transaction without notice to you and may consider such action to be a violation by you of this Agreement.

Before allowing a transaction, we may request you to provide us with identification, authorization, documentation or other information that we deem necessary. We may refuse a withdrawal if you fail to comply with our request. We may tell you in advance when we are going to refuse a withdrawal request but will not be required to do so.

Subject to any limits we may impose and the terms of this Agreement, you may also withdraw funds from certain ATMs. Other third-party fees may also apply to out-of-network ATM transactions.

F. Payment Instructions. Your unique passwords, access codes, PIN, security devices, or authentication techniques and related instructions (“Credentials”) as we may require from time to time will be made available to you. You agree that your Credentials are strictly confidential and must be safeguarded. You shall have sole responsibility for controlling the distribution and maintaining the confidentiality of your Credentials. You authorize us to execute transactions pursuant to the instructions of anyone who has provided us with proper Credentials (including, but not limited to, payment instructions received by us (such as requests to withdraw or transfer funds from your Account through the Service Provider Platform or in connection with your mobile device used to access the Service Provider Platform)) and you acknowledge that we shall conclusively presume that any person possessing your Credentials is an authorized user and will regard their request for such transaction or payment instruction as being authorized by you, subject to applicable law. The use of any of your Credentials by another person will be as effective as your use of the Credentials, regardless of whether the person affixing the Credential was authorized by you and regardless of the means by which the Credential was affixed, subject to applicable law. For example, if you provide your username and password used to access the Service Provider Platform to another person and that person uses that information to withdraw funds from your Account, we will deem the withdrawal to be authorized by you. Unless prohibited by applicable law, you agree to hold us harmless and indemnify us for any liability incurred for reasonably acting upon such instructions which bear any of your Credentials. You agree to keep confidential and to take all reasonable precautions and make all reasonable efforts to protect the secrecy of all Credentials issued to you, selected by you, or utilized by you. If you become aware of the unauthorized use of your Credentials, suspect that an unauthorized use may occur, any of your Credentials become lost or known to another person, or you have terminated authorization of any authorized user, you agree to immediately notify us, to deactivate your Credentials by contacting us at support@holdings.io or notifying us through the Service Provider Platform. IN NO EVENT WILL WE BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES RESULTING, EITHER DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, FROM THE UNAUTHORIZED USE OF YOUR CREDENTIALS PRIOR TO SUCH NOTICE AND WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME PERIOD THEREAFTER.

We may refuse to follow any of your payment instructions if we think they are illegal or potentially harmful to us or any other person. If we follow your payment instructions, we may require other security measures to protect us from any losses we may suffer. To the greatest extent permitted by law, you agree to pay us back for any damages or losses (including, but not limited to, the reasonable costs of an attorney) that we suffer if we take an action based on your (or what appears to be your) oral, written or electronic instructions.

G. Posting Order of Credits and Debits.

i. Posting Orders. This section summarizes how we generally post some common transactions to your Account. Posting transactions to your Account impacts your Account balance. Posting a credit increases your balance, while posting a debit or hold reduces your balance. Credits include deposits and credits we make. Holds include deposit holds and holds related to withdrawals and electronic fund transfers, which includes ACH Transfers. Debits include withdrawals, transfers, payments, transactions and fees from your Account.

We use automated systems to process transactions and then to post transactions to your Account. When we process multiple transactions for your Account on the same day, you agree that we may in our discretion determine our posting orders for the transactions and that we may credit, authorize, accept, pay, decline or return credits, debits and holds in any order at our option, subject to applicable law. We generally post common transactions as set forth herein. We group the different types of transactions into categories. We use several different categories for holds, credits, and debits. Most categories include more than one transaction type. After the end of the business day, our automated systems assign each transaction received for that day to a category. We generally post all transactions within a category, using the posting order or orders that apply to that category, before we post any transactions assigned to the next category.

First, we start with the balance in your Account at the beginning of the business day, subtract holds from your balance, and make any adjustments from prior days. Next, we generally add available and settled deposits and credits to your balance and then subtract debits from your balance based on the debit category. We subtract debits in a category from your balance in order from the highest to lowest dollar amount, unless specified otherwise herein. The first category of debits to be applied against your balance are certain ATM transactions (e.g., ATM withdrawals and transfers) and associated fees. The debits within this category are subtracted from your balance in date and time order our systems receive date and time information. If we make checks available to you, this category is applied next against your balance. Check posting will be in sequential order based on the check number, and for any check for which the number cannot be read, from highest to lowest amount following the posting of number legible checks. We then subtract from your balance any other types of debits in order from the highest to lowest dollar amount. Finally, we subtract from your balance most fees (such as monthly maintenance fees, overdraft fees, returned item fees, and ATM fees) in order from highest to lowest dollar amount. Some fees may show as “processing” until the next day.

ii. Changing Posting Orders. You agree that we may determine in our discretion the orders in which we post transactions to your Account. You agree that we may determine in our discretion the categories, the transactions within a category, the order among categories and the posting orders within a category. We sometimes add or delete categories, change posting orders within categories and move transaction types among categories. You agree that we may in our discretion make these changes at any time without notice to you.

iii. Posting Orders Determined at End of Day. We receive credits, debits and holds throughout the day. Regardless of when during the day we receive transactions for your Account, you agree that we may treat them as if we received all transactions at the same time at the end of the business day. During the day, we show some transactions as processing. Please note that transactions shown as processing have not been posted yet. The posting order for these transactions is determined at the end of the day, with the other transactions we receive for that day and based on the category. We do not always receive debits on the same day that you conduct them. We generally post credits and debits to your Account, and report them on your statement, in a different order than the order in which you conduct them or we receive them.

iv. Overdraft Fees. We generally determine at the time we post a debit to your Account whether it creates an overdraft and whether an overdraft or returned item fee applies. You should note that sometimes we authorize a transaction at a time when you have enough available funds to cover it, but because other transactions post before it and reduce your balance, the transaction creates an overdraft when we post it to your Account. You can avoid fees for overdrafts and returned items by making sure that your Account always contains enough available funds to cover all of your transactions. When your Account balance includes some funds that are subject to a hold, dispute or Legal Process, you should note that those funds are not available to cover your transactions. Our posting orders can impact the number of overdraft fees we charge you when you do not have enough available funds to cover all of your transactions. When several debits arrive the same business day for payment from your Account and you do not have enough available funds in your Account to cover all of the debits we receive for that day, you understand that some posting orders can result in more overdrafts, and more fees for overdraft items and returned items, than if we had used other posting orders. You agree that we may in our discretion choose our posting orders, and also change them from time to time, regardless of whether additional fees may result. When your Account balance includes some funds that are not available at the time that we post a debit, and you do not have enough available funds in your Account to cover the debit, the debit results in an overdraft and we generally charge you an overdraft fee or returned item fee for the debit. We do not show holds or distinguish between available and unavailable funds in your Account balance on your statement.

v. Certain Transactions Made After Business Day Ends. During processing, we may include in your Account balance some transactions that you make after the business day cut-off, but before the end of the calendar day. Deposits are made available based on Section VIII (Deposit Availability Disclosure). We generally subtract from your Account balance the following debits, when the transaction occurs after the cutoff time for the business day, but during the same calendar day: cash withdrawals made at an ATM(s) and any credit-push ACH Transfers or electronic fund transfers (“EFTs”).

H. Insurance Coverage. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insures deposits according to the ownership category in which the funds are insured. Not all accounts may be insured. Unless otherwise stated by us or the FDIC, the Account is insured by the FDIC up to the standard maximum deposit insurance amount per depositor, per FDIC-insured bank, and per ownership category (the “Standard Insurance Amount” or “SIA”), and, with respect to Sub-Deposit Accounts, please see Section K (iii) (d) (FDIC Deposit Insurance) and Section K (vii) (Information about the FDIC). For purposes of determining the SIA applicable to your Account at Bank, you need to consider all accounts that you also hold at the Bank. To determine SIA applicable to your Account maintained at Bank and for any other FDIC insurance requirements that may apply, please visit the FDIC’s website at www.fdic.gov/deposit/deposits or call the FDIC directly at 1-877-ASKFDIC (1-877-275-3342). You can also use the FDIC’s Electronic Deposit Insurance Estimator (EDIE) at www.fdic.gov/edie. For insurance coverage on Sub-Deposit Account(s), please refer to Section K (iii) (d) (FDIC Deposit Insurance) and Section K (vii) (Information about the FDIC).

I. Legal Processes and Claims Against you or your Account. If we receive a levy, attachment, execution, garnishment, tax withholding order, restraining order, subpoena, warrant, injunction, government agency request for information, search warrant, forfeiture or other similar order (“Legal Process”) against you, any party to your Account, or against your Account, we may accept and comply with such Legal Process whether it was served to us in person, by mail, by facsimile, by email, or at one of our locations (other than where your Account, property or records are held). You direct us not to contest the Legal Process; provided, however, we are under no obligation to contest any Legal Process. Subject to any law or government authority prohibiting such disclosure, we may, but are not required to send notice to you of the Legal Process. We may refuse to permit withdrawals or transfers from your Account until the Legal Process is dismissed or satisfied. We may hold and turn over funds or other property to the court or creditor as directed by the Legal Process, subject to our right of set-off and security interest in the funds or other property. You are responsible for any losses, costs, or expenses we incur as a result of any Legal Process involving you, any party to your Account or your Account. If we receive a claim against the funds in your Account, or if we know of or believe that there‘s a dispute as to the ownership or control of funds in your Account, we may, in our discretion: (1) place a hold on your Account and refuse to pay out any funds until we‘re satisfied that the dispute is settled; (2) close your Account and send the balance to the named account holder(s); (3) require a court order to act; or (4) take any other action we feel is necessary to protect us. We will not be liable to you for taking any such action. We may charge your Account a fee for each Legal Process or claim involving you, any party to your Account or your Account. You agree to pay us for fees and expenses (including administrative expenses) that we incur in responding to any Legal Process or claim related to your Account, such as expenses for research and copying of documents. The fees and expenses may include attorneys’ fees. We may deduct these fees and expenses from your Account or any account you have with us without prior notice to you.

We may produce or provide access to property, including documents, that are located in or at any of our locations or facilities or at any facility of a third party holding such property or documentation on our behalf, even if the facility or location is not subject to being searched per the Legal Process.

We have no liability to you if we accept and comply with a Legal Process as provided in this section or by law.

J. Statements. Statements will periodically be provided to you by email as long as your Account is active. You will not receive paper statements. You agree to notify us promptly if you do not receive your statement by the date you normally would expect to receive it. You agree that the statements have been delivered or made available to you in a reasonable manner. You have a duty to review your Account statements. You agree to review and to examine your receipts and Account statements and to reconcile your Account daily using reasonable care and to promptly report any discrepancy between your records and the information provided in your Account statement and any errors or problems to us. Except as provided by applicable law, you agree that we are not required to provide you with a separate notice of incoming or outgoing Wire Transfers and you should review your statement for any discrepancies, unauthorized transactions or errors in connection with any transaction. If you choose not to receive your statements, you remain responsible to review and report any errors. If you are absent from your Account mailing address, you are responsible to make arrangements to have your statements reviewed for errors and report them in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

You agree that if you fail to report any unauthorized signatures, alterations or forgeries in your account within 60 days of when we first send or make the statement available, you cannot assert a claim against us on any items in that statement, and as between you and us, the loss will be entirely yours. This 60-day limitation is without regard to whether we used ordinary care. In addition to your duty to review your statements for unauthorized signatures, alterations and forgeries, you agree to examine your statement with reasonable promptness for any other error such as an encoding error. In addition, if you receive or we make available either your items or images of your items, you must examine them for any unauthorized or missing endorsements or any other problems. You agree that the time you have to examine your statement and items and report to us will depend on the circumstances. However, this time period will not exceed 60 days. Failure to examine your statement and items and report any errors to us within 60 days of when we first send or make the statement available precludes you from asserting a claim against us for any errors on items identified in that statement and, as between you and us, the loss will be entirely yours.

You further agree that if you fail to report any unauthorized transaction on your statement to us within 10 days from when the statement is postmarked or otherwise made available to you, whichever is earlier, we will not be required to pay interest on any unauthorized, erroneous or other Wire Transfer or Funds Transfer request or on any refund to which you may be entitled and you will also be liable to us for any damages or losses we may incur as a result of your failure to notify us within the time period stated in this section. Because you are in the best position to discover an unauthorized transaction, you agree that, without regard to care or lack of care by either you or Bank, we will not be liable for any unauthorized transaction reflected on your statement that is not reported within 60 days of the statement issuance date, subject to applicable law and payment network rules. We will only credit your account for errors or problems as required by law. Email us immediately with errors or questions about electronic transfers at support@holings.io. If you tell us orally, you must submit your complaint or question in writing within ten (10) business days. If you provide us with timely notice of an error or problem in your periodic statement, we will investigate the matter and notify you of the results within a reasonable amount of time. The exact time will depend on the specific circumstances of the error or problem. You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.

If you request us to research and/or reproduce any of your records (statements, checks, deposits, withdrawals, etc.) we may charge a fee, and you agree to pay this fee. If the expected fee is large, you may be asked to pay the fee in advance. We reserve the right to provide you with an imaged item in lieu of the original item.

By accepting the terms of this Agreement or holding a deposit account with us (including, but not limited to your Account), you agree to participate in the Bank deposit custodial program, as further described in this Section F (the “Program”) and agree to be bound by the following terms and conditions (“Program Agreement”). The Program is offered by us in connection with your Account. If you have any questions about any provisions of this Program Agreement, please contact us at info@holdings.io. Pursuant to the terms of this Program Agreement, you agree to appoint Bank, as agent for you and as custodian, to open and maintain with one or more insured depository institutions (each, a “Program Bank” and collectively, “Program Banks”) a deposit account, transaction account, money market account, or omnibus custody account (individually and collectively, “Sub-Deposit Account”) in the name of Bank (for your benefit), and to deposit your funds into Sub-Deposit Accounts at one or more Program Banks as set forth on a list provided to you (“Bank List”). You agree to open a custodial account at Bank (“Custodial Account”), which may be used to facilitate deposits to and withdrawals from the Sub-Deposit Account.

When you deposit funds with Bank under this Agreement, your funds will be deposited into your Account and may be deposited by Bank, as your agent and custodian, into Sub-Deposit Accounts at one or more Program Banks via your Account or Custodial Account. As your custodian, Bank will maintain records of your Sub-Deposit Accounts at each Program Bank. Your funds at Bank and at each Program Bank identified as a “Priority Bank” on the Bank List are eligible for FDIC insurance coverage up to $250,000 for each insurable capacity in which your Sub-Deposit Account is held (e.g., individual account, joint account, etc.) (the “Deposit Limit”).

Funds in your Account or Sub-Deposit Account may exceed the Deposit Limit in any Priority Bank. Amounts in excess of the Deposit Limit but not greater than the Program Insurance Eligibility Limit (as defined herein) will be deposited at one or more Priority Banks. Any amount in excess of the Program Insurance Eligibility Limit may not be covered by FDIC insurance; such amount may be deposited at a Priority Bank acting as an “Excess Bank” (as set forth on the Bank List) for such amount without limit and without regard to the maximum FDIC insurance coverage available.

Any deposits (including certificates of deposit) that you maintain in the same insurable capacity directly with Bank, a Program Bank or through an intermediary (such as a broker), regardless of the number of accounts, will be aggregated with funds in your Account, Sub-Deposit Account, Custodial Account or a Program Bank for purposes of the Deposit Limit. You are responsible for monitoring the total amount of deposits that you have with Bank and each Program Bank in order to determine the extent of FDIC insurance coverage available to you. The Sub-Deposit Accounts are solely the obligations of the Program Banks, and neither directly nor indirectly obligations of Bank nor Holdings. Bank is agent and custodian for you with respect to Sub-Deposit Accounts and ownership will be evidenced by a book entry in records maintained by us. You will not have a direct relationship with the Program Banks. No evidence of ownership related to the Sub-Deposit Account will be issued to you, and you will not receive any written confirmation of the establishment of the Sub-Deposit Account or transfer of funds to or from the Sub-Deposit Account. All deposits and withdrawals will be made by Bank on your behalf, and all deposits to your Sub-Deposit Account and withdrawals from the Sub-Deposit Account necessary to satisfy any debits to or withdrawals from your Account will be made by Bank, as your agent. Information about your Sub-Deposit Accounts may be obtained from Bank or Holdings, not the Program Banks. All communications regarding the Program, including periodic statements and notices regarding changes to the Program, are the responsibility of Holdings and Bank, not the Program Banks. If you have any questions regarding your Account or Sub-Deposit Accounts, please contact Bank at info@holdings.io.The terms and conditions of the Program, and any feature of the Program, may be varied at Bank’s sole discretion. Bank, in its sole discretion, may make exceptions to the terms and conditions of the Program.

ii. Appointment of Bank as Your Agent and Custodian. You appoint Bank, and Bank agrees to be appointed, as your agent and custodian to hold in safekeeping all Sub-Deposit Accounts at Program Banks. You authorize Bank to execute and deliver or file on your behalf all appropriate receipts, agreements, releases and other instruments, including whatever agreements may be required to establish and maintain the Sub-Deposit Accounts or to establish your ownership interest in the Sub-Deposit Account. You appoint Bank to act as your agent with respect to establishing, maintaining and administering the Sub-Deposit Account, and you authorize us to take any action necessary to establish, maintain and administer the Sub-Deposit Account and to initiate transfers to and from your Sub-Deposit Account, Custodial Account and Account as we may determine in Bank’s sole discretion.

You agree that Bank, as your agent, may place any or all of your funds on deposit with Bank at one or more Program Banks in an amount determined in Bank’s sole discretion based on available capacity at the Program Bank or other criteria, including rates or fees paid on deposits by the Program Bank to Bank. Bank may place your funds without regard to whether such funds may exceed the Deposit Limit at one or more Program Banks, even if your funds could be placed in one or more Program Banks in an amount less than the Deposit Limit. Bank may financially benefit if it places your funds into a Program Bank in excess of the Deposit Limit when that Program Bank pays a greater amount of fees to Bank than other Program Banks that could accept your deposits in amounts under the FDIC insurance limit. Please carefully read the section entitled “Waiver of Conflicts” below.
‍
You authorize Bank to collect and retain all payments of income pertaining to the Sub-Deposit Accounts (if any) and to deliver or transfer the funds on deposit in the Sub-Deposit Accounts to another account with Bank, including your Account, to process any transactions or transfers from your Account. As your agent, you authorize Bank to determine the amount of funds to deposit in and withdraw from each Sub-Deposit Account.

You agree that Bank, in its sole discretion, may divide the funds deposited into your Account into one or more separate Sub-Deposit Account to be managed by Bank.

You agree that Bank may comply with any writ of attachment, execution, garnishment, tax levy, restraining order, subpoena, warrant or other legal process that Bank believes (correctly or otherwise) to be valid. We may notify you of such process by telephone, electronically or in writing. If Bank is not fully reimbursed for its record research, photocopying and handling costs by the party that served the process, Bank may charge such costs to your Sub-Deposit Account, in addition to any minimum fee Bank may charge for complying with legal processes.

You agree that Bank may honor any legal process that is served personally, by mail, or by facsimile transmission at any of Bank’s offices or an office of Bank’s agent (including locations other than where the funds, records or property sought is held), even if the law requires personal delivery at the office where your Account or records are maintained.

We may provide your name, tax identification number and other pertinent identifying information to Program Banks, and other parties providing services in connection with the placement of your funds and the establishing and holding of the Sub-Deposit Account.

You agree that we shall have no liability to you for any action taken or omitted by us hereunder in good faith.

You agree to indemnify us and our nominees against, and to hold us and our nominees harmless from, all expenses (including counsel fees), liabilities and claims arising out of the holding, delivery or transfer of the Sub-Deposit Accounts and compliance with any legal process that we believe (correctly or otherwise) to be valid.

iii. Operation of the Program.

a. Accounts at Bank. You agree to establish both an Account and Custodial Account with us and that we may establish a Sub-Deposit Account on your behalf at Bank. Please read the section titled “Your Relationship with Bank and the Program Banks” below.

b. Accounts at Program Banks. As your agent, we will open one or more Sub-Deposit Accounts on your behalf at the Program Banks on the then-current Bank List and act as your custodian for the Sub-Deposit Accounts. At some Program Banks, we may open a money market deposit account (“MMDA”) and a transaction account (“TA”); at other Program Banks, we may open a TA only. Each MMDA and TA are considered a Sub-Deposit Account. The Sub-Deposit Account may not be transferred to another institution, except by us or the Program Bank.

c. Program Bank List. The Bank List of available Program Banks into which your funds may be deposited is available on our website at https://www.getevolved.com/openbanking/fdic-insured-sweep-program/ or by contacting us. The Bank List may include one or more Program Banks that constitute Excess Banks; we may deposit your funds at an Excess Bank without limit and without regard to Deposit Limit if funds sufficient to meet the Program Insurance Eligibility Limit have been placed at one or more Priority Banks. If all of your funds are withdrawn from a Program Bank, the next time your funds are available for deposit in a Program Bank, your funds may be deposited in a different Program Bank. You may at any time, with reasonable advance notice to us at info@holdings.io, designate a Program Bank as ineligible to receive your funds. In addition, you may at any time instruct Bank to remove your funds from a Program Bank, close your Sub-Deposit Accounts with the Program Bank and designate the Program Bank as ineligible to receive future deposits. Any funds from a closed Sub-Deposit Account will be deposited into Sub-Deposit Accounts at another Program Bank set forth on the Bank List, as amended by you, or if no other Program Bank is eligible, the funds will be deposited into your Account. For example, if you maintain other accounts at a Program Bank on the list separate from the Program, you may wish to designate this Program Bank as ineligible to avoid the aggregation of funds in your account(s) held directly with funds deposited through the Program as the combination of funds may exceed the amount of available FDIC insurance coverage at that Program Bank. If you designate all Program Banks as ineligible, we will return funds to your Account and may, in our discretion and in accordance with law, close your Account and any Sub-Deposit Account opened specifically for you.

d. FDIC Deposit Insurance. Bank will place your funds at Priority Banks as your agent in a manner that enables up to $250,000 of your deposits or such other greater amount as may be disclosed to you by us from time to time to be eligible for FDIC insurance through the Program (such amount, the “Program Insurance Eligibility Limit”). From time to time, we may increase the amount of available FDIC insurance through the Program, and you will be notified of such an increase. Any other deposits you have at the Priority Banks outside of the Program may reduce FDIC insurance coverage of your deposits through the Program. Moreover, if you have designated one or more Priority Banks as ineligible to receive your funds, the amount of FDIC insurance for which your funds are eligible may be limited. The depositing of your funds into the Sub-Deposit Account may not increase your FDIC deposit insurance coverage, and may in fact reduce insurance coverage depending on any other deposits you may maintain at a Program Bank.

e. Changes to Bank List. One or more of the Program Banks included on the Bank List may be replaced with a Program Bank not previously included on the Bank List or a Program Bank may be deleted from the Bank List. In addition, Program Banks designated as Priority Banks may be replaced with a Program Bank not previously designated as a Priority Bank or a Program Bank may be removed from the list of designated Priority Banks. We will notify you if the Bank List has changed in accordance with the section titled “Changes to the Program.” Continued use of your Account and/or the Program after receipt of the initial Bank List or notice of subsequent changes to such list will constitute your consent to such list.

An increase in the number of Priority Banks in the future may not increase the potential FDIC coverage available in the Program, and there can be no assurance that additional Priority Banks will be added or your FDIC insurance coverage will increase. A decrease in the number of Priority Banks in the future could decrease the potential FDIC coverage available in the Program. You agree that deposits and withdrawals of your funds made after a change to the Bank List will occur as described below under “Deposit Procedures” and “Withdrawal Procedures,” respectively.

If a Program Bank at which you have funds in a Sub-Deposit Account(s) no longer makes the Sub-Deposit Account(s) available through the Program, we may move funds to another Program Bank on the Bank List on or about the day that the Program Bank leaves the Program or return funds to your Account.

f. Deposit Procedures. You agree that, as your agent, we may open one or more Sub-Deposit Accounts on your behalf at one or more of the Program Banks on the then current Bank List. If we open both an MMDA and a TA at a Program Bank, all deposits will be made into your MMDA and/or TA, subject to six (6) monthly withdrawal limits applicable to MMDA.

You agree that, as your agent, we may place your funds at one or more Program Banks without limit and without regard to the Deposit Limit. You agree that we will place your funds based on each Program Bank’s available capacity or other criteria, including rates paid by Program Banks on Sub-Deposit Accounts or fees paid to us. Please see the section titled “Waiver of Conflicts” for additional information.

You understand and agree that deposit amounts in excess of the Deposit Limit at a Priority Bank and deposit amounts at an Excess Bank will not be insured by the FDIC.

Periodically, your previously deposited funds may be reallocated among the Program Banks on a revised Bank List based on each Program Bank’s available capacity or other criteria, including rates paid by Program Banks to us.

You understand and agree that it is your obligation to monitor your funds deposited at all Program Banks. You may email Service Provider at any time at info@holdings.io to determine your Sub-Deposit Account balances at each Program Bank.

g. Withdrawal Procedures. You agree that all withdrawals will be made by Bank as your agent. Funds may be withdrawn from Program Banks based on a Program Bank’s available capacity or other criteria, including, but not limited to, rates or fees paid to Bank. Funds may also be withdrawn from Sub-Deposit Account to fund transactions associated with your Account. If you have an MMDA and a TA at a given Program Bank, all withdrawals will be made from the TA. If funds in the TA at a Program Bank from which funds are being withdrawn are insufficient, funds in the related MMDA at that Program Bank will be transferred to the TA, plus funds to maintain any TA minimum, or “threshold,” amount. At any point during a month in which transfers from an MMDA at a Program Bank have reached a total of six (6), all funds will be transferred from that MMDA to the linked TA at the Program Bank until the end of the month. Deposits for the remainder of the month into this Program Bank will be made to the TA. At the beginning of the next month, funds on deposit in the TA will be transferred to the MMDA, minus any threshold amount to be maintained in the TA. The limits on MMDA transfers will not limit the number of withdrawals you can make from funds on deposit at a Program Bank or the amount of FDIC insurance coverage for which you are eligible. Pursuant to federal banking regulations, the Program Banks may reserve the right to require seven days’ prior written notice before you withdraw or transfer funds from an MMDA. The Program Banks have indicated that they have no present plans to exercise this right. TAs are not subject to this restriction.

h. Interest Rates Paid on Deposit Balances. Your Account is an interest-bearing account, and you will accrue interest in accordance with the terms of the subsection titled “Interest and Interest Rate” of this Agreement. Interest will be posted to your Account by Bank, subject to the current Interest and Interest Rate. When determining the balance to be used to calculate interest payments, we will consider the balance in both your Account and Sub-Deposit Account. The existence of the Sub-Deposit Account will not change the manner in which you use, obtain information about or earn interest on your Account, except that Bank will consider your balances in the Sub-Deposit Account for purposes of calculating your Account balance and interest payments.

i. Waiver of Conflicts. You understand and agree that, as your agent, we may place any or all of your funds on deposit with us at one or more Program Banks in an amount determined in Bank’s sole discretion based on available capacity at the Program Bank or other criteria, including rates paid on deposits by the Program Bank or fees paid to Bank. You understand and agree that Bank has no obligation to place funds into Program Banks to maximize the amount of deposit insurance available on your funds or to maximize any interest rates that your funds may earn. Bank may place your funds without regard to whether such funds may exceed the Deposit Limit at one or more Program Banks, even if your funds could be placed in one or more Program Banks in an amount less than the Deposit Limit. You understand and agree that the Program Banks may pay us fees to Bank and that we have no obligation to share these fees with you. You understand and agree that we may financially benefit if we place your funds into a Program Bank in excess of the Deposit Limit when that Program Bank pays a greater amount of fees to us than other Program Banks that could increase the deposit insurance available to you. You further acknowledge and agree that each Program Bank may pay us a fee in connection with the placement of funds with the Program Bank, including for each Sub-Deposit Account. The fee may vary between banks. Even if we receive a fee from a Program Bank, you are not entitled to such fees. For the avoidance of doubt, you authorize us to collect and retain all payments of income pertaining to the placement of your deposits at other Program Banks, including the Sub-Deposit Accounts. You further acknowledge that we and Program Banks may also receive other financial benefits in connection with the funds in your Sub-Deposit Account. Our placement of funds in the Sub-Deposit Account may reflect considerations of federal and state law, our funding needs and funding needs of Program Banks, general economic conditions or other factors determined by us in our sole discretion. We may place funds to enhance our business objectives and for balance sheet management purposes without any benefit to you. Subject to applicable law, your only rights with respect to the Sub-Deposit Account are to demand that we repay you all amounts in your Account that were deposited with Bank and those transferred to the Sub-Deposit Account from your Account.

j. Information About Your Accounts. Although there are two or more accounts associated with your funds (the Account and the Sub-Deposit Account), your Account is treated as a single account for accruing interest in accordance with the subsection titled “Interest and Interest Rate” of this Agreement, as well as for balance requirement, service charge, and monthly statements. Transfers to and from the Sub-Deposit Account will not appear on your monthly statement. We are responsible for the accuracy of your Account statements, not the Program Banks. The funds you deposit with us in your Account (whether or not transferred to a Sub-Deposit Account) will be made available to you in accordance with this Agreement (and regardless of the performance of any of our loans or investments, subject to FDIC insurance limitations). The existence of the Sub-Deposit Account will not change the manner in which you use or obtain information about your Account. You will receive, from time to time, periodic information which will reflect the balances of your Sub-Deposit Accounts at each Program Bank for the applicable period.

k. Your Relationship with Bank and the Program Banks. We will act as your agent and custodian in establishing the Sub-Deposit Accounts at each Program Bank, depositing funds into the Sub-Deposit Accounts, withdrawing funds from the Sub-Deposit Accounts and transferring funds among the Sub-Deposit Accounts. Sub-Deposit Account ownership will be evidenced by a book entry on the account records of each Program Bank (or by us on behalf of Program Bank) and by records maintained by us as your custodian. No evidence of ownership, such as a passbook or certificate will be issued to you. You may at any time obtain information about your Sub-Deposit Accounts by contacting info@holdings.io. You agree that all transactions with respect to your Sub-Deposit Accounts must be directed by us and all information concerning your Sub-Deposit Accounts must be obtained from Bank through Service Provider. You agree that the Program Banks have no obligation to accept instructions from you with respect to your Sub-Deposit Accounts or to provide you with information concerning your Sub-Deposit Accounts. If you decide to terminate your participation in the Program, your termination will result in a return of funds in accordance with law and closing of your Account and any Sub-Deposit Account opened specifically for you. Each Sub-Deposit Account constitutes an obligation of a Program Bank and is not directly or indirectly our obligation. You can obtain publicly available financial information concerning each Program Bank at www.ffiec.gov/nicpubweb/nicweb/nichome.aspx, by contacting the FDIC Public Information Center by mail at L. William Seidman Center, Virginia Square, 3501 North Fairfax Drive, Arlington, Virginia 22226, or by phone at 703-562-2200. We do not guarantee in any way the financial condition of any Program Bank or the accuracy of any publicly available financial information concerning any Program Bank.

l. Fees. You understand and agree that each Program Bank will pay us a fee in connection with the Program. The fee may vary between banks. The amount of any fee received by Bank may not affect the interest rate you receive. Even if Bank receives a fee from a Program Bank, you may not be entitled to such fees. In addition, other service providers may receive fees from each Program Bank or Bank and may receive a portion of the fee paid to us by the Program Banks.

m. Changes to the Program. You agree that we may modify the terms and conditions of the Program, including changing, removing or adding Program Banks offered therein. All notices of material changes to the Program may be communicated by a posting on our website, letter, a separate electronic or written communication, a note on a periodic statement or other means.

iv. Information about the FDIC. Deposit Insurance: General. Your Sub-Deposit Accounts are insured by the FDIC, an independent agency of the U.S. Government, up to $250,000 for all deposits held in the same insurable capacity as recognized by the FDIC at any one bank. According to the FDIC, no depositor has ever lost a penny of FDIC-insured funds.

Your funds become eligible for FDIC insurance immediately upon placement into your Sub-Deposit Account at a Priority Bank. Generally, any accounts or deposits that you maintain directly with a particular bank, or through any other intermediary, in the same insurable capacity in which the accounts or deposits are maintained would be aggregated with the accounts or deposits for purposes of the $250,000 Deposit Limit.

You are responsible for monitoring the total amount of deposits that you hold with any one bank, directly or through an intermediary, in order to determine the extent of FDIC insurance coverage available to you on your deposits. We are not responsible for any insured or uninsured portion of any deposits.

In the event a Priority Bank fails, your Sub-Deposit Accounts at that Priority Bank is insured, up to $250,000, for amounts accrued to the day the Priority Bank is closed. Under certain circumstances, if you become the owner of deposits at a Program Bank because another depositor dies, beginning six (6) months after the death of the depositor the FDIC will aggregate those deposits for purposes of the $250,000 Deposit Limit with any other deposits that you own in the same insurable capacity at the bank. Examples of deposit accounts that may be subject to this FDIC policy include joint accounts, “payable on death” accounts and certain trust accounts. The FDIC provides the six-month “grace period” to permit you to restructure your deposits to obtain the maximum amount of deposit insurance for which you are eligible.

In the event that FDIC deposit insurance payments become necessary, payments of deposits will be made to us as your custodian. There is no specific time period during which the FDIC must make insurance payments available. We will not be obligated to you for amounts not covered by deposit insurance nor will we be obligated to make any payments to you in satisfaction of a loss you might incur as a result of a delay in insurance payouts. We will not be obligated to credit your account with funds in advance of payments received from the FDIC.

Furthermore, you may be required to provide certain documentation to the FDIC before insurance payments are made. For example, if you hold deposits as trustee for the benefit of trust participants, you may be required to furnish affidavits and provide indemnities regarding an insurance payment.

If your balance in your Sub-Deposit Accounts are assumed by another depository institution pursuant to a merger or consolidation, such deposits will continue to be insured separately, up to the FDIC insurance coverage limits and subject to the terms hereunder, from the deposits that you might have established with the acquiring institution until (i) the maturity date of any time deposits (including certificates of deposit) that were assumed, or (ii) with respect to deposits that are not time deposits, the expiration of a six (6) month period from the date of acquisition. Thereafter, any assumed deposits will be aggregated with your existing deposits with the acquiring institution held in the same capacity for purposes of FDIC insurance coverage. Any deposit opened at the acquiring institution after the acquisition will be aggregated with deposits established with the acquiring institution for purposes of FDIC insurance coverage.

If you have questions about basic FDIC insurance coverage, please contact us. You may wish to seek advice from your own attorney concerning FDIC insurance coverage of deposits held in more than one insurable capacity. You may also obtain information by contacting the FDIC, Deposit Insurance Outreach, Division of Depositor and Consumer Protection, by letter (550 17^th Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20429), by phone (877-275-3342 or 800-925-4618 (TDD)), by visiting the FDIC website at: https://www.fdic.gov/deposit/index.html, or by email using the FDIC’s Online Customer Assistance Form available on its website.

v. Termination. Your participation in the Program may be terminated without penalty at any time at the option of either you or us. You may also opt-out of the Program at any time. Following opt-out or termination of your participation in the Program, we may, if applicable, transfer your funds in the Sub-Deposit Accounts at Program Banks to your Account or, at our sole discretion, terminate your Account and return your funds in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

L. Interest and Interest Rate. Your Account is an interest-bearing account. There is no minimum deposit required to earn the stated Annual Percentage Yield (“APY”). We only pay interest in whole cents and any fractional interest will be carried over to the following month. Interest is compounded daily. Interest will be credited to your Account on a monthly basis. We use the average daily balance method to calculate interest on your Account. This method applies a periodic rate to the average daily balance in the Account for the period. The average daily balance is calculated by adding the principal in the Account for each day of the period and dividing that figure by the number of days in the period. Interest begins to accrue on the Business Day that we receive your deposit. If you close your Account before interest is credited, you will not receive the accrued interest.

At our discretion, we may change the interest rate on your Account at any time.

M. Prohibitions. We reserve the right to close your Account if we determine that it is used for any impermissible purpose, as we may determine from time to time. You may not use your Account for illegal gambling or any other illegal transaction or purpose. This prohibition includes any transaction that is illegal in the jurisdiction where you live, in the jurisdiction where the transaction is consummated, or in any other jurisdiction affected by the transaction. You are responsible for determining the legality of each of your transactions in all applicable jurisdictions before entering into the transaction. We have no obligation to monitor, review or evaluate the legality of any transaction. Nevertheless, we may deny transactions or authorizations if we believe the transaction is or may be illegal. We reserve the right to refuse or return any item that we believe is related to an illegal transaction, an Internet or online gambling transaction or a high-risk transaction, as determined by us. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree to pay for any transaction that you authorized, even if the transaction is determined to be illegal or associated with an illegal activity. We reserve the right to cancel, close or restrict use of the Account, including by refusing the processing of any transaction, if we believe you have violated this Agreement or any applicable law.

N. Account Fees; Fee Schedule. You agree to pay all fees and charges applicable to your Account, which will be automatically deducted from your Account and may result in your Account being overdrawn. There are no fees applicable for this Account. Fees are subject to change at any time and without notice to you, unless required by law. Fees are charged by Bank for its services. Service Provider may charge you fees separate and apart from the Fees set forth in this Agreement for its Services, pursuant to the Service Provider Terms. Bank is not responsible for any fees charged by Service Provider for its Services. If you request a service that is not included in description of services within the Terms and Conditions and there is a fee for such service, such fee will be disclosed at the time you request the service and you agree that any such fee may be deducted from your Account.

O. Negative Balance. Each time you initiate a transaction using your Account, you authorize the Bank to reduce the funds available in your Account by the amount of the transaction (and any reversals) and all associated fees. You are not allowed to exceed the available amount in your Account through an individual transaction or a series of transactions (creating a “negative balance”). Nevertheless, if any transaction causes the balance in your Account to go negative, including, but not limited to, any purchase transactions where the retailer or merchant does not request authorization, you shall remain fully liable to us for the amount of any negative balance and any corresponding transaction fees. You may also be liable for any related Insufficient Funds/NSF Fee(s) as we may disclose to you prior to charging such fee. We reserve the right to bill you for any negative balance or to recoup such negative balance from your Account or any other account you have at the Bank. You agree to pay us promptly for the negative balance and any related fees. We also reserve the right to terminate your Account if you create one or more negative balances. If you fail to pay us amounts owed under this Agreement, we may refer your Account, and collection of amounts owed, to a collection agency.

P. Insolvency and Dissolution. You agree to notify us promptly through your representative if you seek to dissolve corporate formation, materially limit operations or cease operating, transfer a substantial percentage of your assets, are unable to pay your debts when due or are insolvent or bankrupt (individually and collectively, “Incapacitation”). We may continue to honor instructions until: (a) we know of your Incapacitation, and (b) we have had a reasonable opportunity to act on that knowledge. You agree that we may continue to accept deposits and process transactions to your Account until we receive notice and any required proof of Incapacitation and may pay transactions initiated on or before the date of Incapacitation for up to 10 days after your Incapacitation unless ordered to stop payment by someone claiming an interest in the Account. If we receive notification or if we have reason to believe that you have become Incapacitated, we may place a hold on your Account, retain funds and refuse all transactions. You agree to hold us harmless for any actions we take based on our belief that you have become Incapacitated. If certain payments originating from government entities are deposited into your Account after Incapacitation, we may be required to return those payments to the originator upon notice. If you owe us a debt at the time of your Incapacitation, we are authorized to exercise our right of setoff (our right to apply funds in one account to the debt associated with another account) or security interest rights against the funds credited to your Account after your Incapacitation. You agree to hold us harmless for any actions we take based on our belief that you have become incapacitated or any notices of incapacitation that we receive.

Q. Monitoring and Closing Your Account. Subject to the terms herein, you can close your Account at any time and for any reason by contacting us or terminating the Account through the Service Provider Platform, if applicable. We reserve the right to refuse your request to close your Account if your Account is not in good standing or if you have a negative balance on your Account. If you intend to close your Account, you should notify us through the Service Provider Platform. Simply reducing your Account balance to $0.00 is insufficient notice. If you close your Account you are responsible for transactions you initiated or authorized, including those that we receive after the Account is closed, subject to applicable law. Withdrawals from your Account may be restricted prior to Account closing.

We reserve the right to monitor all Account activity for inappropriate use. We may also suspend or close your Account at our discretion and for any reason with or without notice. This includes if we believe you are using your Account for fraudulent or illegal purposes or in violation of law or regulation, this Agreement, any other agreement you may have with us or Service Provider, or if you otherwise present undue risk to us or Service Provider. We are not responsible to you for any damages you may suffer as a result of the closure or suspension of your Account. If we close your Account, all collected funds (less any amounts due to us or for debits in process) will be transferred to your Linked Account. Alternatively, we may, at our discretion, mail you a check for the available balance in your Account. Written notice that the Account has been closed, to the extent required by law, and a check, if any, will be sent to any address shown on our records for you, or if the Account is jointly owned, to any Account owner to whom we elect to send it, or the email address we have on file for the Account. Once we have closed your Account, you agree that we can assess any service charge otherwise applicable against any remaining balance in your Account. We are not responsible to you for any damages you may suffer as a result of your Account being closed. If you attempt to make a deposit to an Account we closed, we may collect the deposit and set-off your indebtedness to us. We reserve the right not to return funds to you if your Account balance is less than $10.00. The closure of your Account or termination of this Agreement does not impact any right or obligation that arose prior to closure or termination, or any right or obligation that, by its nature, should survive termination (including, but not limited to, any indemnification obligation by you, our limitations of liability, and any terms governing arbitration).

R. Dormancy and Unclaimed Property. State laws (called “escheat” or unclaimed property laws) require us to close your Account and transfer your money to the state if your Account is dormant for a period of time as defined by your state of residence. State and federal law and our policy govern when your Account is considered dormant. Your Account is usually considered dormant if you have not accessed your Account, communicated to us about your Account or otherwise shown an interest in your Account within the period of time specified under applicable law. Each state has varying laws as to when an account is subject to escheatment and we may be required to send the balance in your Account to the state of your last known address or, if not in the U.S., the state in which we reside. We will make all reasonable efforts to contact you if required by applicable law before transferring the remaining balance of your Account to the applicable state. After we surrender the funds to the state, we have no further liability to you for those funds and you must apply to the appropriate state agency to reclaim your funds. You can avoid the transfer of your money to the state simply by signing into your Account, transacting periodically, or contacting us, or replying to any abandoned property correspondence. If your Account becomes dormant, you may no longer receive statements, but you can still view your Account(s) online.

S. Fraud and Unauthorized Transactions.

i. Duty to Safeguard Account. You agree to keep your Account information, Credentials, security code, password or other confidential identification number used to access your Account, secure and strictly confidential and to not permit disclosure of such information to any unauthorized person. You agree to immediately notify Bank if this information has become known to, or been used by, an unauthorized person. You acknowledge that Bank has no method to determine whether a transaction conducted with use of a valid Account name, Account number, Credentials and/or security code was proper, and you therefore authorize Bank to complete any transaction involving your Account made with the use of such information, and verifying the authenticity of a transaction request using Account information, Credentials, security code, password or other confidential identification number used to access your Account constitutes a commercially reasonable security procedure of purposes of UCC Article 4A. You agree to be responsible for any transaction initiated with the use of valid Credentials or any access device. Bank shall have no liability for any loss, claim, or damage sustained as a result of the use of your Credentials or access device whether such transaction was authorized or not and you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Bank for any such transaction alleged to be unauthorized.

ii. Duty of Care. You agree that you will exercise ordinary care in handling your Account. In exercising ordinary care, you shall have the duty to: carefully examine your bank statements for fraudulent or unauthorized transactions and promptly notify Bank of any such transaction; timely reconcile your statement with your internal records to detect any other Account discrepancies, including any missing or diverted deposits; implement security precautions regarding the use and access of your Accounts, through any access device, Credentials, security codes, passwords, or confidential identification numbers; conduct background checks of all individuals having access to any Credentials, security or access devices or sensitive Account information; conduct background checks on all individuals who have authority to prepare Account transactions or reconcile statements; independently review the work of individuals who are responsible for reconciling statements and preparing transactions using your Account; and comply with all other duties under this Agreement or under any applicable law. Your failure to exercise ordinary care will constitute negligence and will preclude you from asserting against Bank any unauthorized transaction on your Account.

iii. Security Procedures. You are responsible for establishing and maintaining safeguards, policies and procedures that ensure your computer systems and networks and information stored on or transmitted through your network are not accessed or used by any unauthorized person and to ensure that your origination of payment orders and your transfer requests are secure and that unauthorized access or issuance of transfer requests is prevented. The parties have agreed on and adopted the security procedure set forth in this section to govern the origination of payment orders and transfer requests (the “Security Procedures”). You represent, warrant and agree that the Security Procedures constitute a “security procedure” for purposes of UCC § 4A-201. You represent that you: (a) consider yourself qualified to have, and have, independently evaluated the risks presented by the Security Procedures; and (b) have determined that the Security Procedures are no less protective than other security procedures in use by similarly situated companies. You hereby represent, warrant and agree that the Security Procedures that are commercially reasonable within the meaning of UCC § 4A-202. We shall comply and you shall comply with the Security Procedures with respect to transfer requests and payment orders submitted to us. You acknowledge that the purpose of the Security Procedures is to verify authenticity and not to detect an error in the transmission or content of any file transmission, transfer request or payment order. No Security Procedures have been agreed upon between you and us for the detection of any such error and you shall be solely responsible for any transmission errors. If a file transmission is authorized or issued by you, or on your behalf, or you otherwise benefit from such file, you agree to be bound by the data contained in the file transmission whether or not we complied with the Security Procedures.

All payment orders and your transfer requests (other than wire transfer requests) submitted to us through the Service Provider Platform shall be considered authorized by you. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, you shall be entitled to deem any person having knowledge of any Security Procedure to be an authorized user.

If you believe or suspect that any such information or instructions have been compromised, known or accessed by any unauthorized person, you agree to notify us immediately, but in no event longer than one (1) business day, by calling us at (888) 806-1639 followed by written confirmation to Evolve Bank & Trust or by email to support@holdings.io. The occurrence of unauthorized access will not affect any payment order or transfer request made, the processing of a file transmission, transfer requests or payment orders processed, in compliance with the Security Procedures prior to receipt of such notification and within a reasonable time period to prevent unauthorized payment or transfer. You warrant that no individual will be allowed to initiate transfer requests or payment orders in the absence of proper supervision and safeguards, and agree to maintain the confidentiality of Security Procedures and any passwords, codes, security devices and related instructions provided by us in connection with the Security Procedures and prevent the disclosure of the same except on a need-to-know basis. If you believe or suspect that any such information or Security Procedures are accessed by unauthorized persons, you will notify us immediately followed by written confirmation. You agree to defend all claims and indemnify and hold us harmless from and against any loss, damages, or expenses, including but not limited to attorney's fees, caused by your failure or the failure of your employees or agents, to keep the Security Procedures confidential and secure. The occurrence of unauthorized access will not affect any payment or transfer made in good faith by us prior to receipt of notification and within a reasonable time period to prevent unauthorized transfers.

If a transfer request (or a request for cancellation or amendment of a transfer request) or payment order (or a request for cancellation or amendment of a payment order) received by us purports to have been transmitted or authorized by you, it will be deemed effective as your transfer request or payment order and you shall be obligated to pay us the amount of such related payment order or transfer request even though the transfer request or payment order (or request for cancellation or amendment of the same) was not authorized by you so long as we acted in compliance with the Security Procedures. You shall examine the Account(s) each business day to review each transfer request and notify us immediately (and confirm such notice promptly in writing) of any unauthorized, incorrect or delayed transfers reflected in such information. You acknowledge that time is of the essence in reviewing the Account(s) and reporting discrepancies in order to prevent or limit loss by reason of unauthorized, erroneous, or delayed transfers, and compliance with this requirement is a condition precedent to any recovery against us for any alleged error or negligence in connection with such transfer request. If a transfer request (or request for cancellation or amendment of a transfer request) or payment order (or request for cancellation or amendment of a payment order) received by us was transmitted or authorized by you, you shall be obligated to pay the amount of the associated payment order or transfer requests as provided herein, whether or not we complied with the Security Procedures and whether or not that transfer request or payment order was erroneous in any respect or that error would have been detected if we had complied with such Security Procedures. For the avoidance of doubt, you further agree that any transfer request or payment order that is acted upon in good faith by us in compliance with these Security Procedures, whether or not in fact authorized by you, shall constitute an authorized transfer request or payment order. In the event of a breach of the Security Procedure, you agree to assist us in determining the manner and source of the breach. Such assistance shall include, but shall not be limited to, providing us or our agent access to your hard drive, storage media and devices, systems and any other equipment or device that was used in breach of the Security Procedure. You further agree to provide to us any analysis of such equipment, device, or software or any report of such analysis performed by you, your agents, law enforcement agencies, or any other third party. Failure of you to assist us shall be an admission by you that the breach of the Security Procedure was caused by a person who obtained access to transmitting facilities of you or who obtained information facilitating the breach of the Security Procedure from you and not from a source controlled by us.

We reserve the right to modify, amend, supplement, or cancel any or all Security Procedures at any time and from time to time in our discretion. We will endeavor to give you reasonable notice of any change in Security Procedures; provided that we may make any change in Security Procedures without advance notice to you if we, in our judgment and discretion, believe such change to be necessary or desirable to protect the security of our systems and assets. Your use of any services described herein, including issuance of a payment order, after any change in Security Procedures shall constitute your agreement to the change and your agreement that the applicable Security Procedures, as changed, are commercially reasonable and adequate for the purposes intended.

v. Limitation to File Claim. You agree that no legal proceeding or action may be commenced against Bank to recover any amounts alleged to have been improperly paid out of the Account due to any fraudulent or unauthorized transaction unless: (i) you have timely provided written notice as required by subsections i and ii of this paragraph S (Fraud and Unauthorized Transactions), (ii) Bank did not comply with the Security Procedures; and (iii) such proceeding or action shall have been commenced within six (6) months from the date the first statement containing the unauthorized transaction was made available to you. Any proceeding or action not brought within one year from the date of the first statement containing the unauthorized transaction is forever barred.vi. Claim of Loss. If you claim a credit or refund because of a forgery, alteration, or any other unauthorized withdrawal, you agree to cooperate with us in the investigation of the loss, including giving us an affidavit containing whatever reasonable information we require concerning your Account, the transaction, and the circumstances surrounding the loss. You will notify law enforcement authorities of any criminal act related to the claim of lost, missing, or stolen Credentials or unauthorized withdrawals. We will have a reasonable period of time to investigate the facts and circumstances surrounding any claim of loss. In no event will we be liable for special or consequential damages, including loss of profits or opportunity, or for attorneys’ fees incurred by you. You are liable for transactions not authorized by you if the Bank can prove that the transaction was processed in good faith and in compliance with a commercially reasonable security procedures, unless otherwise required by law. You agree that you will not waive any rights you have to recover your loss against anyone who is obligated to repay, insure, or otherwise reimburse you for your loss. You will pursue your rights or, at our option, assign them to us so that we may pursue them. Our liability will be reduced by the amount you recover or are entitled to recover from these other sources.

vii. Duty of Insurance. You are under a duty to maintain fidelity bond coverage on any individual who has access to your Account information, Credentials or access devices and on any individual responsible for reviewing or reconciling statements. You agree to pursue all rights under such policy or any other insurance policy you maintain before making a claim against Bank in connection with any unauthorized banking transaction. You agree to provide Bank with all reasonable information about your insurance coverage, including the name of the insurance carrier, the policy number, policy limits, and applicable deductibles. Bank’s liability, if any, will be reduced by the amount of any insurance proceeds you are entitled to receive. At Bank’s request, you agree to assign your rights under any insurance policy to Bank.

IV. ARBITRATION AND WAIVERS. THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION WILL HAVE A SUBSTANTIAL IMPACT ON HOW LEGAL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND US ARE RESOLVED. PLEASE READ THIS SECTION IV (ARBITRATION AND WAIVERS) CAREFULLY. For a dispute subject to arbitration, neither you nor we will have the right to: (A) have a court or a jury decide the dispute; (B) engage in information-gathering (discovery) to the same extent as in court; (C) participate in a class action in court or in class arbitration; or (D) join or consolidate a claim with claims of any other persons. Arbitration procedures are simpler and more limited than rules applicable in court.

A. Definitions. If you have a dispute with us or our Service Provider, and we are not able to resolve the dispute informally, you and we agree that upon demand by either you or us, the dispute will be resolved through the arbitration process as set forth in this section. A “claim” or “dispute,” as used in this Section IV (Arbitration and Waivers), is any unresolved disagreement between you, us and/or our Service Provider, arising from or relating in any way to the Account or this Agreement. The terms “claim” and “dispute” are to be given the broadest possible meaning that will be enforced and includes, by way of example and without limitation, any disagreement relating in any way to your Account any additional account, joint accountholder; services offered in connection with an Account or any other services offered pursuant to this Agreement; to your use of any of our banking products or services; to any means you may use to access your Account(s); to any advertisements, promotions or oral or written statements related to the Account; to the benefits and services related to an Account; or your approval, establishment or enrollment of an Account. Claims also include disagreements about the meaning, application or enforceability of this arbitration agreement. As solely used in this Section IV (Arbitration and Waivers), “we” or “us” shall include the Bank, its affiliates and their successors, employees, directors, officers and agents. In addition, “we” or “us” shall include Service Provider, any third party, their respective subsidiaries, affiliates, licensees, predecessors, successors, and assigns using or providing any product, service or benefit in connection with this Agreement or any Account if, and only if, such third party is named as a co-party with us (or files a claim with or against us) in connection with a claim asserted by you. The terms “you” or “yours” shall mean each Account owner and all persons or entities approved to have, approved to use and/or given access to an Account, including but not limited to all persons or entities contractually obligated under this Agreement and all joint accountholders. The term “Account,” for purposes of arbitration, includes any updated or substitute account for you related to the Account or any other account contemplated by this Agreement (including Sub-Deposit Accounts).

B. Binding Arbitration and Appeals. If either party elects arbitration, that claim shall be arbitrated on an individual basis. Arbitration applies whenever there is a claim between you and us. The arbitrator’s authority to resolve claims or make awards is limited to claims between you and us alone. If a third party is also involved in a claim between you and us, then the claim will be decided with respect to the third party in arbitration as well, and it must be named as a party in accordance with the rules of procedure governing the arbitration. No award or relief will be granted by the arbitrator except on behalf of, or against, a named party. Furthermore, claims brought by you against us or by us against you may not be joined or consolidated with claims brought by or against someone other than you, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by all parties. Claims are subject to arbitration, regardless of on what theory they are based, whether they seek legal or equitable remedies, or whether they are common law or statutory (Federal or state) claims. Arbitration applies to any and all such claims or disputes, whether they arose in the past, may currently exist, or may arise in the future. Judgment upon the arbitrator’s award may be entered by any court having jurisdiction. The arbitrator’s decision is final and binding, except for any right of appeal provided by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code) (“FAA”). However, if the amount of the claim exceeds $25,000 or involves a request for injunctive or declaratory relief that could foreseeably involve a cost or benefit to either party exceeding $25,000, any party can, within thirty (30) days after the entry of the award by the arbitrator, appeal the award to a three-arbitrator panel administered by the forum. The panel shall reconsider anew all factual and legal issues, following the same rules of procedure and decide by majority vote. Reference in this Section IV (Arbitration and Waivers) to “the arbitrator” shall mean the panel if an appeal of the arbitrator’s decision has been taken.

C. Initiation of Arbitration. Any claim must be resolved, upon the election by you or us, by arbitration pursuant to this Section IV (Arbitration and Waivers) and the code of procedures of the national arbitration organization to which the claim is referred in effect at the time the claim is filed. Claims shall be referred to either Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”) or the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as selected by the party electing to use arbitration. For a copy of the procedures, to file a claim or for other information about these organizations, contact them as follows: (i) JAMS at 1920 Main Street, Suite 300, Los Angeles, CA 92614; website at www.jamsadr.com; and (ii) AAA at 335 Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10017; website at www.adr.org. In the event that JAMS or the AAA is unable to handle the dispute for any reason, then the matter shall be arbitrated instead by a neutral arbitrator selected by agreement of the parties pursuant to the AAA rules of procedure; or, if the parties cannot agree, selected by a court in accordance with the FAA. To the extent that there is any variance between the selected forum’s rules and this Section IV (Arbitration and Waivers), this Section IV (Arbitration and Waivers) shall control.

If you initiate the arbitration, you must notify us in writing at support@holdings.io. If we initiate the arbitration, we will notify you in writing at your last known address in our file.

D. Class Action and Jury Waiver. NEITHER YOU NOR WE (I) HAVE THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE THAT CLAIM IN COURT OR HAVE A JURY TRIAL ON THAT CLAIM, (II) SHALL BE ENTITLED TO JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE DISPUTES BY OR AGAINST OTHERS IN ANY COURT ACTION OR ARBITRATION, (III) HAVE THE RIGHT TO INCLUDE IN ANY COURT ACTION OR ARBITRATION ANY DISPUTE AS A REPRESENTATIVE OR MEMBER OF ANY CLASS OF CLAIMANTS PERTAINING TO ANY CLAIM SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION, (IV) HAVE THE RIGHT TO ACT IN ANY ARBITRATION IN THE INTEREST OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY, UNLESS THOSE PERSONS ARE BENEFICIARIES ON YOUR ACCOUNT; OR (V) ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY EXCEPT AS PROVIDED FOR IN THE CODE OF PROCEDURES OF JAMS OR AAA, AS APPLICABLE (THE “CODE”). THIS IS SO WHETHER OR NOT THE CLAIM HAS BEEN ASSIGNED. NOTE THAT OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION.

E. Location of Arbitration and Cost. Any arbitration shall take place in Memphis, Tennessee, unless the parties agree to a different location in writing. The party initiating the arbitration (or appeal of the first arbitration award) shall pay the initial filing fee. If you file the arbitration and an award is rendered in your favor, we will reimburse you for your filing fee. All fees and costs will be allocated in accordance with the rules of the arbitration forum. Each party shall bear the expense of their respective attorneys, experts, and witnesses and other expenses, regardless of who prevails, but the arbitrator will have the authority to award attorneys and expert witness fees and costs to the extent permitted by this Agreement, the forum’s rules, or applicable law.

F. Arbitration Procedures: This Section IV (Arbitration and Waivers) is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce, and shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. Sections 1-16, as it may be amended (the “FAA”). The arbitration shall be governed by the applicable Code, except that (to the extent enforceable under the FAA) this Arbitration Section shall control if it is inconsistent with the applicable Code. The arbitrator shall apply applicable substantive law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations and shall honor claims of privilege recognized at law and, at the timely request of either party, shall provide a brief written explanation of the basis for the decision. In conducting the arbitration proceeding, the arbitrator shall not apply the Federal or any state rules of civil procedure or rules of evidence. Either party may submit a request to the arbitrator to expand the scope of discovery allowable under the applicable Code. The party submitting such a request must provide a copy to the other party, who may submit objections to the arbitrator with a copy of the objections provided to the request party, within fifteen (15) days of receiving the requesting party’s notice. The granting or denial of such request will be in the sole discretion of the arbitrator who shall notify the parties of his/her decision within twenty (20) days of the objecting party’s submission. The arbitrator shall take reasonable steps to preserve the privacy of individuals, and of business matters. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The arbitrator’s decision will be final and binding, except for any right of appeal provided by the FAA. However, any party can appeal that award to a three-arbitrator panel administered by the same arbitration organization, as set forth in Section IV(B) (Arbitration and Waivers).

G. Governing Law. You and we agree that in our relationship arising from this Agreement: (1) the parties are participating in transactions involving interstate commerce; (2) the arbitrator shall decide any dispute regarding the enforceability of this arbitration agreement; and (3) this arbitration agreement and any resulting arbitration are governed by the provisions of the FAA, and, to the extent any provision of that act is inapplicable, the laws of the State of Tennessee. The arbitrator must apply applicable substantive law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations and claims of privilege recognized at law. At the timely request of either party, the arbitrator must provide a brief written explanation of the basis for the award.

H. Continuation and Severability. This Section IV (Arbitration and Waivers) shall survive termination of your Account, any voluntary payment of any debt owed to us and paid in full by you, any legal proceeding by us to collect a debt owed by you, and/or any bankruptcy by you or us. If any portion of this Section IV (Arbitration and Waivers) of this Arbitration Section is deemed invalid or unenforceable under any principle or provision of law or equity, consistent with the FAA, it shall not invalidate the remaining portions of this Section IV (Arbitration and Waivers), this Agreement or any prior agreement you may have had with us, each of which shall be enforceable regardless of such invalidity.

Unless otherwise specified or required by law, we do not assume any fiduciary obligation on your behalf. Unless required by law, this means that we do not act as your trustee or financial advisor, and we do not assume any responsibility for your account beyond reasonable care.

B. Account Disputes. If a dispute arises concerning your Account (including, for example, a dispute over who is an authorized signer or owner), or if we believe we have a claim against you or we have or receive a claim by a third party (including our affiliates) to all or a portion of the property (including money, certificates of deposit, securities and other investment property, financial assets, etc.) in your Account, or if we have concerns regarding your Account or the use of your Account, we have the right to hold any portion of the property in your Account until the dispute, claim, or concern is resolved to our satisfaction. We will not be liable to you if the hold we place on your Account leaves insufficient funds to cover outstanding transactions. If the dispute, claim or concern remains unresolved, you agree that we may at our option deposit the property in your Account with a court and ask the court to determine to whom the property belongs. If we deposit your property with a court, you agree that we may charge your Account for our costs, including attorney’s fees and expenses.

C. Governing Law, Forum and Time Limits.

All actions relating to your Account, including this Agreement, will be governed by the laws and regulations of the United States and the State of Tennessee (to the extent that laws of the State of Tennessee are not preempted by Federal law).

If applicable law does not permit contractual shortening of the time during which a lawsuit must be filed to a period as short as one (1) year, you agree to the shortest permitted time under Tennessee law.

We have the right to set-off any liability, direct or contingent, past, present or future that you owe against any account you have with us. This means that we can take any funds in your Account or any other account you have with us to pay any debt or liability you owe us. We may exercise our security interest or right of set-off without prior recourse to other sources of repayment or collateral, if any, and even if such action causes you to lose interest, incur any penalty or suffer any other consequence. If we exercise our security interest or right to set-off, we will notify you to the extent required by applicable law. If the law imposes conditions or limits on our ability to take or set off funds in your Account, to the extent that you may do so by contract, you waive those conditions and limits, and you authorize us to apply funds as we deem applicable. We may also exercise these rights against any Account beneficiary. These rights exist no matter who contributed the funds to the Account. We will consider your consent to this Agreement as your consent for us asserting our security interest or exercising our right of set-off should any laws governing your Account require your consent.

G. No Waiver of Rights. If we fail to exercise or waive a right with respect to your Account on one or more occasions, it does not mean we have waived, or are obligated to waive, the same right on any other occasion.

To the greatest extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold us and our officers, directors, shareholders, employees, successors, predecessors, representatives, principals, agents, assigns, parents, subsidiaries and/or insurers harmless from any losses, damages, suits and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, that we may incur, without regard to the merit or lack thereof, arising out of, or related in any way to: (i) taking any action or not taking any action that we are entitled to take pursuant to this Agreement; (ii) any action or omission by you; (iii) any misuse of the services hereunder by you or any third party within your control or on your behalf; (iv) the matters set forth herein; (v) our action or inaction in reliance upon oral, written or electronic instructions or information from you or any of your authorized representatives; (vi) your performance of the services under this Agreement or refusing to perform any transfer request in accordance with a transfer request; (vii) any delay, suspension or cancellation of arrangements we made with respect to any transfer request when the rejection, suspension or cancellation is for any reason permitted under this Agreement, including your cancellation of a payment order or transfer request for any reason; or (viii) any crediting or debiting of the Account, except where applicable law requires otherwise. Without limiting the foregoing, if we comply with the provisions of this Agreement, you agree that we shall not be responsible for any communication or miscommunication by you or your representatives, and you further agree to indemnify, to the extent allowed by law, us and hold us harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, expenses, suits, costs or damages, demands or liabilities of whatever kind or nature, whether now existing or hereafter relating in any way to a payment order, payment instruction, payment order, transfer request or other payment related request or instruction made pursuant to this Agreement.

iii. Reimbursement for Losses. If we take any action to collect debt incurred by you or other amounts you owe us under this Agreement or defend ourselves in a lawsuit brought by you where we are the prevailing party, you agree to reimburse us for our losses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the extent permitted by applicable law. We may charge your Account for our losses without prior notice to you.

M. Liability for Service Interruptions. From time to time, due to maintenance, malfunctions or failures of software, equipment, or telecommunications devices, as well as unusual transaction volume or similar reasons, access to your Account may not be available to you. Access to your Account may also be interrupted as a result of things beyond our reasonable control, computer failures, loss of power, failure or interruption of communication or transportation facilities, riots, strikes, or civil unrest. You agree that we shall not be responsible for any loss, damages, costs or expenses that you may suffer or incur, directly or indirectly, as a result of the unavailability of access to your Account, regardless of whether it could be shown that we could have prevented or reduced the duration of such unavailability by taking any action within our reasonable control. We shall also not be responsible for any loss, damages, costs or expenses which you may suffer or incur, directly or indirectly, as a result of your inability to access your Account caused directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, by your computer or mobile device, your inability to establish a connection to or to access the Internet, or other limitations or constraints of the Internet. The provisions set forth in this section shall apply in addition to any other provisions in this Agreement but as applied to service interruptions for access to your Account, this section shall control.

N. Section Headings and Successors. The headings in this Agreement are only for convenience and do not in any way limit or define your or our rights or obligations under this Agreement. This Agreement will be binding on your personal representatives, executors, administrators, and successors.

O. Change of Address or any Application Information. You must notify us through the Service Provider Platform of any change of address, email address or phone number or any material change to information you provided us in your application to open an Account. Any notice we provide to you will be binding and sent to the last (postal or electronic) address in our records. We may change your address if we receive an address change notice from the U.S. Postal Service or if a company in the business of providing correct addresses informs us that the address in our records no longer matches your address.

P. Electronic Communications and Electronic Signatures; Electronic Storage of Data and Records.

i. Electronic Communications. You understand, acknowledge and agree that data, including emails, may be accessed by unauthorized third parties when communicated between you and the Bank, using the Internet, telephone, or other electronic devices. We are not responsible for any misdirected data or disclosures that occur as a result of your use of third-party electronic communications.

ii. Electronic Signatures. You understand, acknowledge and agree that we may use your electronic signature in lieu of or in addition to your handwritten signature and that your electronic signature will have the same legal and binding effect as your handwritten signature.

iii. Electronic Storage of Data and Records. You agree and consent that we may record or otherwise document and store information electronically transmitted, entered or received by us or through any mobile application or website provided to you to access and/or use your Account for our record-keeping purposes. You further acknowledge and agree that such records, documents and other stored information shall be presumed to be accurate representations of your requests, communications and instructions to us.

Q. Calls and Messages. You agree that we or our agents or Service Provider may contact you regarding any matter for any non-telemarketing reason using any kind of telecommunications technology at any email and telephone number you provide to us, including the phone number for your mobile device. You agree to receive these calls and messages, including pre-recorded or auto-dialed calls. You also agree that we may send text messages to any phone number for your mobile device you provide to us. You understand and accept that your service provider may charge you for these calls and messages consistent with applicable law. For quality control purposes and for other reasons, you permit us to record and monitor your telephone conversations and electronic communications with us (including email). Unless the law requires otherwise, you consent in advance to such recording and monitoring and we do not need to remind you of these activities at the time of the call or communication. To revoke the consent provided pursuant to this subsection, you must send ten (10) days’ prior written notice of such revocation to support@holdings.io.

R. Compliance with Laws and Rules. You acknowledge that any payment order, payment instruction, or transfer requests under this Agreement may not be used in violation of the laws of any state or jurisdiction, the United States or any other country, including without limitation laws administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control. You agree to comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, rules, regulations, including Protected Information and Operating Circulars and with (i) all applicable rules and operating guidelines issued by the National Automated Clearing House Association or other clearing agent and (ii) any policies and procedures, including any guide, guidelines and related procedures provided to you from time to time by us (collectively, the “Rules”). You will be responsible for knowing the requirements of the applicable Rules, and you will have the responsibility to fulfill any compliance requirement or obligation that we and/or you may have under the Rules applicable to this Agreement and of the services provided to you hereunder, including without limitation sanction laws administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control, and other requirements relating to anti‐money laundering, including but not limited to the federal Bank Secrecy Act, the USA PATRIOT Act and any regulations of the U.S. Treasury Department to implement such Acts, as amended from time to time. Each time you make a transfer request or transaction, you represent to us that each such request or transaction is bona fide and/or you conduct your business and originate payments, transactions and/or other related activity in compliance with the applicable laws and Rules. You shall be liable for the amount of any fines and/or liabilities assessed against us for any violation of the Rules that are due to the acts or omissions of you or any other third party providing services to you that in any way relate to the service under this Agreement.

S. Bankruptcy or Insolvency. You will immediately notify us of any bankruptcy, receivership, insolvency or similar action initiated by or against you or any of you principals and will include us on the list of creditors as filed with the Bankruptcy Court and failure to do so will be cause for immediate termination or any other action available to us under applicable Laws or Rules. As an executory contract to make a loan, or extend other debt financing or financial accommodations to or for the benefit of you, this Agreement cannot be assumed or assigned under your bankruptcy.

T. Survival. Termination of this Agreement shall not impact any right or obligation arising prior to termination, and in any event, the parties agree that any right or obligation which, by its nature, should survive termination of this Agreement will survive any such termination (including, but not limited to Sections IV (Arbitration and Waivers) and V (Miscellaneous Terms) of this Agreement).

VI. TAX REPORTING AND BACKUP WITHHOLDING.
If you are subject to backup withholding, you may not access or use the Account. Internal Revenue Code requires most recipients of dividends, interest, or other payments to give Taxpayer Identification Numbers to payors who must report payments to the Internal Revenue Service. The Internal Revenue Service uses the numbers for identification purposes and to verify the accuracy of your tax return. If you fail to furnish a correct Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), you may be subject to a penalty of $50 for each such failure unless such failure is due to reasonable cause and not to willful neglect. If you fail to furnish a TIN, the Bank may refuse to open your Account. The Bank may close an Account which was opened without a TIN and you fail to subsequently provide a TIN.

If you make a false statement with no reasonable basis that results in no imposition of backup withholding, you may be subject to a penalty of $500. Willfully falsifying certifications or affirmations may subject you to criminal penalties including fines and/or imprisonment. If you disclose or use a TIN in violation of federal law, you may be subject to civil and criminal penalties.

VII. WIRE TRANSFERS.

i. General. In the event we make available to you wire transfers of funds from your Account(s) with us for credit to an account at another financial institution or another account with us (“Wire Transfer”), whether such transfers are domestic or international, this Section VII (Wire Transfers) applies, in addition to the other terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. We will make available to you, from time to time, our policies, procedures, guidelines and other writings governing the use of the Wire Transfer Services by you, as may be amended or supplemented by Bank from time to time (the “Wire User Guide”). You will comply with and preform all of your obligations under this Agreement in compliance with the Wire User Guide and this Agreement. If there is a conflict between the Wire User Guide and this Agreement, the Wire User Guide shall control. If made available to you, you may send a Wire Transfer by submitting a request through the Service Provider Platform. When acting upon your Wire Transfer instructions, we may use any means of transmission, funds transfer system, clearing house, or intermediary bank that we reasonably select. We may make use of correspondents, agents, subagents, and funds transfer and communication systems. Such third parties shall be deemed your agents, and we shall not be liable for any errors, delay, mis-delivery, or failure of delivery by any of them unless applicable law says otherwise. The beneficiary, frequency and dollar amount for any Wire Transfer may be limited. The limits are designed to be flexible in order to protect the security and integrity of the service and accounts, including any use by you or others of the service and your Account or any other person’s account. Based on confidential fraud and essential risk criteria, they may be modified at our discretion without advance notice. We reserve the right to reject any Wire Transfer request. We have no responsibility to accept any incoming Wire Transfer(s) for your benefit, and we may reject any Wire Transfer request(s) for an outgoing Wire Transfer for reasons including, but not limited to, insufficient or uncollected funds in the account specified in the Wire Transfer request, a request that fails the security procedures outlined herein or if we are unable to verify the authenticity of the Wire Transfer request.

If you submit a Wire Transfer request to us, we will process it on the same business day (or next business day if the request is not made on a business day) so long as we receive the request no later than the Cut-Off Time, subject to verification in accordance with the security procedures described in this Section VII (Wire Transfers). If it is received after the Cut-Off Time and verified through our security procedures, the Wire Transfer request may be processed the next business day. We may treat any Wire Transfer request received at or after our cut-off time as if it was received that business day, or we may treat it as if it were received at the opening of the next business day, in our sole and absolute discretion. If we determine, in our sole discretion, not to honor, execute, or accept a Wire Transfer request, we may notify you, but are not obligated to and we shall have no liability for delay or failure to do so. We will also use commercially reasonable efforts to notify you promptly if a Wire Transfer is returned to us after its execution but shall have no liability by reason of our delay or failure to do so. We shall have no obligation to resend a Wire Transfer if we complied with the original Wire Transfer request and such Wire Transfer was returned to us.

You authorize us to debit or credit your Account immediately for an amount equal to the Wire Transfer request and any applicable fees related to such Wire Transfer request. Your Wire Transfer requests may involve the transfer of funds from your Account to another account you have with us, to an account with any other financial institution, or to a third party or account of a third party maintained with us or with any other financial institution. You shall ensure sufficient funds on deposit in the Account with us for implementation of each Transfer request. We will have no obligation to honor any Wire Transfer request which exceeds the balance of your immediately collected funds; provided, however, that you shall be liable for any amount which we elect to Wire Transfer in excess of such balance. You agree that we are authorized to debit the Account immediately for the Wire Transfer request, and you further agree that we are authorized to charge your Account a service fee for each Wire Transfer request you place.

Wire Transfers to or from your Account will be governed by the rules of the funds transfer system(s) through which the transfers are made, including Fedwire, the National Automated Clearing House Association, the Electronic Check Clearing House Organization, any regional association (each an ACH), the Clearing House Interbank Payments System (CHIPS), the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (“SWIFT”) and the RTP system (“RTP System”) and UCC Article 4A. We are under no obligation to honor, in whole or in part, any payment order or other instruction that could result in our contravention of applicable law, including, without limitation, requirements of the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) and the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”). We are under no obligation to follow any Wire Transfer request or initiate any Wire Transfer, nor are we obligated to follow instructions canceling or amending any transfer request that do not afford us sufficient time to verify the authenticity of the instructions.

Once we receive a Wire Transfer request, it may not be able to be canceled or amended. However, at our discretion, we may use reasonable efforts to act on any request for cancellation or amendment, provided that the method by which we are notified of a request for cancellation or amendment complies with the Security Procedures. However, we shall have no liability if such cancellation or amendment is not effected. You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any and all liabilities, claims, damages, costs and expenses we may incur in attempting to cancel or amend the Wire Transfer. Any cancellation or amendment of a Wire Transfer by us shall relieve us of any obligation to act on the original Wire Transfer request.

It is your responsibility to ensure that we are provided with accurate, clear, and correct Wire Transfer requests and instructions, including beneficiary name and account number, in the manner and format prescribed by us, and that such Wire Transfer requests are given only by you. Further, you acknowledge that a failure to comply strictly with such procedures may delay or prevent implementation of Wire Transfer request(s) or result in transfers from your Account to unintended beneficiaries. You are liable for any incorrect, inaccurate or unclear information. If you give us the name and account number of a beneficiary, we and other financial institutions may process the payment order based on the account number alone, even though the number may identify a person other than the beneficiary named. Any errors in the information, including misidentification of beneficiary(ies), incorrect or inconsistent account names and numbers, identifying number of intermediary bank or beneficiary bank, and misspellings, are your responsibility. We will not be liable if the beneficiary’s financial institution does not accept the Wire Transfer or accepts the Wire Transfer and then places the funds in a suspense or holding account because of the discrepancy. Unless applicable law requires otherwise, we will not be liable to you or any other person for any losses resulting from the beneficiary’s financial institution accepting and posting any Wire Transfer to an incorrect account, whether based on your Wire Transfer request or for other reasons unrelated directly to a material breach of this Agreement by us. Incorrect, unclear or incomplete Wire Transfer requests may delay or prevent the processing of your Wire Transfer request or may result in transfers from your Account to unintended beneficiaries. If a Wire Transfer request does not designate the beneficiary’s financial institution, we may, in our discretion (i) accept the Wire Transfer request and make payment to any financial institution at which we have reason to believe the beneficiary maintains an account, or (ii) not accept the Wire Transfer request and seek further direction from you. In either of the foregoing situations, unless applicable law requires otherwise, we will not be liable for losses resulting from your failure to properly identify the financial institution where the beneficiary maintains an account. If a Wire Transfer request does not specify routing instructions, you will be deemed to have instructed us to send the wire through such correspondents as we determine in our sole discretion. You acknowledge that any administrative messages or comments conveyed with any Wire Transfer request shall be for its own internal reference and shall not be binding on us or alter the pertinent details of the Wire Transfer request. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, we are not required to accept Wire Transfer requests from you or any person acting or purporting to act on your behalf in a representative or fiduciary capacity, and we may refuse to accept any Wire Transfer requests in our sole and absolute discretion. We may also reject any incoming wire transfer. If we determine, in our sole discretion, not to honor, execute or accept a Wire Transfer request, we are under no obligation to inform you and shall not be liable for any failure to inform you. A Wire Transfer request is considered accepted by us when we execute it.

ii. Cut-Off Times. Wire Transfer requests for domestic and international Wire Transfers must be received and verified by 2:00 PM CST for domestic Wire Transfers and 11:00 AM CST for international Wire Transfers (collectively, the “Cut-Off Time(s)”). We may treat any transfer request received at or after our Cut-Off Time as if it were received that business day or we may treat it as if it were received at the opening of the next business day. We are not required to make a Wire Transfer on the day a transfer request is received, unless the properly completed transfer request is received within a reasonable time before any Cut-Off Time we have established. We may use any means and routes that we, in our sole discretion, consider suitable for the transmission of funds, and we may make use of correspondents, agents, subagents and funds transfer and communication systems. Such third parties shall be deemed your agents and we shall not be liable for any errors, delay, mis-delivery, or failure of delivery by any of them unless applicable law says otherwise. We are not responsible for delays or mistakes caused by other parties through whom we transmit funds.

iii. International and Domestic Wire Transfers. Wire Transfers may be either domestic or international, provided, however, international Wire Transfers may not be sent by us through or into any country in violation of U.S. laws. All international Wire Transfers will be routed by us through one of our correspondent financial institutions. Domestic Wire Transfers will settle only in U.S. Dollars, and international Wire Transfers may be in a foreign currency if accepted at our discretion. Such international Wire Transfer may be converted to the currency of the destination country at a rate of currency exchange established by correspondent financial institution or the beneficiary financial institution. Even if you tell us that you want the Wire Transfer sent in U.S. dollars, we cannot guarantee that the beneficiary institution will receive the funds in U.S. currency or will not convert the Wire Transfer into another currency. The actual amount that the beneficiary/designated recipient receives may be reduced by fees and taxes imposed by the beneficiary bank, or a correspondent bank, including currency conversion charges.

iv. Tax Payment Wire Transfer Request. Any Wire Transfer request which seeks to make payment of a tax obligation (the “Tax Wire Transfer”) must be submitted to us with the applicable documentation and the completed IRS taxpayer worksheet (where applicable) in compliance with our instructions and procedures and the terms of this Agreement. You acknowledge and understand that any Tax Wire Transfer may require additional time for processing and may require you to provide clarification and additional supporting documentation before the Tax Wire Transfer may be processed. You agree that you will submit any Tax Wire Transfer request in sufficient time in advance of your tax payment due date. We shall not be liable for any errors, delay or failure of delivery of your IRS payment if the Tax Wire Transfer was not submitted by you with ample time for processing of the Tax Wire Transfer request.v. Wire Transfers to a Beneficiary Bank. After the funds are transferred to the beneficiary bank, the funds become the property of the beneficiary bank. The beneficiary bank is responsible to locate, identify, and make payment to your beneficiary. If your beneficiary cannot be properly identified, the funds may be returned.vi. Rejected, Revoked, Canceled or Returned Wire Transfer Requests. You acknowledge that Wire Transfer requests which are not made in the precise format prescribed in procedures provided to you by us may be released for transmission to the clearing agent, even though such transfer requests may be rejected by the clearing agent due to your failure to comply with format requirements or for other reasons. We cannot revoke or cancel a transfer request once it has been transmitted by you and we will not be liable to you if we cannot recover any funds already transferred. You agree that if the transfer request is returned for any reason, you will accept as repayment in full, the dollar amount of the transfer request, less appropriate fees.

vii. Delays or Non-Execution of Wire Transfer Requests. While we will handle your transfer requests as expeditiously as commercially reasonable, you agree that Bank will not be responsible for any delay, failure to execute, or mis‐execution of your Wire Transfer request due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including without limitation for the insolvency, neglect, misconduct, mistake, default, any inaccuracy, interruption, delay, or failure in the means of transmission, whether caused by strikes, power failure, equipment malfunctions, or acts or omissions of any bank, entity, or person whether or not that other bank, entity or person is our agent. WE MAKE NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING AS TO THE FAILURE OF ANY INTERMEDIARY BANK OR BENEFICIARY BANK TO CREDIT YOUR BENEFICIARY WITH THE AMOUNT OF THE WIRE TRANSFER AFTER RECEIPT OF SAME WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTER. We reserve the right to delay or not to process Wire Transfer requests if we believe such Wire Transfer (a) relates to any internet gambling transactions or any illegal transactions; (b) relates to one or more beneficiaries listed on the Specially Designated National lists from the U.S. Department of Treasury; or (c) may violate any Executive Order of the President, Foreign Governmental Embargoes/Sanctions, directive of the U.S. Department of the Treasury or law.

viii. We may disclose any information given to us that we, in our sole discretion, determine is necessary or desirable to disclose; except we will only disclose confidential information if required by law, a court, or legal, regulatory, or governmental authority, or as permitted by law in order to combat, prevent, or investigate issues arising under anti-money laundering laws, economic sanctions, or criminal law. Sometimes legal, regulatory, or governmental authorities require additional information, either in respect of individuals, entities, or particular transactions. You agree to promptly supply all such information, which any such authority may require, and/or which we may be required to supply, in relation to the individual, entity, or particular transaction. If you, or your authorized representative, breach any such laws or regulations, you irrevocably agree that we may retain any monies or funds transmitted to us pursuant to this Agreement and/or not fulfill any Wire Transfer request if we are required to take or refrain from such action by any legal, regulatory, or governmental authority or if we reasonably believe that such action may violate any laws or regulations described herein, and such monies shall not bear interest against us. You further agree that we may pay such monies to the appropriate legal, regulatory, or governmental authority, if and when required by law.

ix. If we receive an incoming international wire transfer for payment into your Account that was remitted in a currency other than U.S. dollars, we will convert the amount of the payment into U.S. dollars using the applicable exchange rate for credit to your Account. The exchange rates we use for your transactions are not necessarily the bank-to-bank negotiated exchange rate or other potentially more favorable rate. You consent to our doing this without prior notice to you. FDIC deposit insurance does not insure against any loss due to foreign currency fluctuations. If for any reason we do not receive covering payment from the remitting or intermediary bank in respect of an incoming international Wire Transfer we have credited to your Account, you agree to allow us to debit your Account for the amount credited under such incoming international Wire Transfer. Wire Transfers sent to foreign countries may be converted to the currency of the destination country at our rate of currency exchange for remittance transfers. We cannot guarantee that the beneficiary/designated recipient will receive the funds in U.S. currency. The actual amount that the beneficiary/designated recipient receives may be reduced by fees and taxes imposed by the beneficiary bank, or a correspondent bank, including currency conversion charges.

VIII. DEPOSIT AVAILABILITY DISCLOSURE.
When a deposit is made to your Account, the funds may not be available immediately. This Section VIII (Deposit Availability Disclosure) describes when funds will be made available to you.

A. Delays. We may delay the availability of funds from certain types of deposits to your Account. There are exceptions that may apply in certain circumstances (e.g., if you have overdrawn your Account repeatedly in the last six (6) months or there is an emergency). During the delay, you may not withdraw funds and may not use the funds. We will notify you if we delay the availability of your funds if required by law, and we will tell you when you can expect your funds to be available if required by law.

B. Deposits. Any transaction that you conduct on Saturday, Sunday, a federal holiday, or other days on which we are closed will be handled the following business day. If we receive a deposit before 4:00 PM MT on a business day, we will consider that business day to be the day of your deposit. However, if we receive a deposit after 4:00 PM MT or on a non -business day, we will consider the deposit as having been made the next business day. Deposits may only be made by EFT, which includes direct deposits and ATM Transfers.

C. Special Rules for New Accounts. If you are a new customer, the following special rules will appl during the first 30 days your account is open. Funds from electronic direct deposits to your Account will be available on the day we receive the deposit. Funds from deposits of cash, wire transfers, and, if made available, the first $5,000 of a day's total deposits of cashier's, certified, teller's, traveler's, and federal, state and local government checks will be available on the same business day we receive your deposit if the deposit meets certain conditions. For example, the checks must be payable to you (and you may have to use a special deposit slip). The excess over $5,000 will be available on the ninth business day after the day of your deposit. If your deposit of these checks (other than a U.S. Treasury check) is not made in person to one of our associates, the first $5,000 may not be available until the second business day after the day of your deposit. Funds from all other check deposits may not be available until the second business day after the day of your deposit.

D. Availability of ACH Transfer and EFT Deposits. Funds from ACH Transfers or EFTs that you initiate through another bank will generally be available on the next business day after the day the ACH Transfer or EFT is deemed to be received by us. An ACH Transfer or EFT debit to a Linked Account or any other external account that we originate on your behalf will generally be made available on the third business day after the date the ACH Transfer or EFT is deemed to be received and processed by us. Once they are available, you can use the funds for EFTs and ACH Transfers. Even after we have made funds available to you and you have withdrawn the funds, you remain responsible if any deposit to your Account is returned, rejected, or otherwise uncollected by the Bank.
