Checkr Pay Business Deposit Account Agreement (Earners)

Last updated: November 5, 2024
Please read this Checkr Pay Deposit Account Agreement (the “Agreement”) carefully and retain it for your future reference. This Agreement contains the general terms, conditions and disclosures related to the demand deposit account (the “Account”) made available to eligible businesses by Checkr Pay (“Program Partner”), the program partner responsible for managing the Account program, in partnership with Thread Bank, a bank chartered under the laws of the State of Tennessee (“Bank”). For avoidance of doubt, the Bank provides all banking services, including the deposit account. Program Partner is not a bank and does not itself take deposits or otherwise provide banking services.

When you see the words “we,” “us,” or “our” in this Agreement, it refers to the Bank any of the Bank’s affiliates, successors, or assignees. When you see the words “you” or “your,” it refers to each sole proprietorship, corporation, unincorporated association, limited liability company, limited liability partnership, or partnership ("Business Entity") who opens an Account (as defined below) and in whose name an Account is maintained on our records. "Account" means your business demand deposit account with us.

By opening and continuing to hold an account with us, you agree to be bound by this Agreement and are establishing a deposit account at Thread Bank. Your deposits qualify for up to a maximum of $3,000,000 in FDIC insurance coverage when placed at program banks in the Thread Bank deposit sweep program. Your deposits at each program bank become eligible for FDIC insurance up to $250,000, inclusive of any other deposits you may already hold at the bank in the same ownership capacity. You can access the terms and conditions of the sweep program at https://thread.bank/sweep-disclosure/ and a list of program banks at https://thread.bank/program-banks/ . Please contact customerservice@thread.bank with questions on the sweep program.

THIS ACCOUNT MAY ONLY BE USED FOR BUSINESS PURPOSES AND CANNOT BE USED FOR ANY PERSONAL, FAMILY OR HOUSEHOLD PURPOSES.

IMPORTANT NOTE: THIS AGREEMENT IS SUBJECT TO BINDING ARBITRATION AND A WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS AND YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY. THE TERMS OF ARBITRATION AND THE WAIVER APPEAR IN THE SECTION OF THIS AGREEMENT TITLED “ARBITRATION AND WAIVERS” BELOW.

Account as detailed below.

Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, the Online Banking Services and its features are governed by the Program Partner’s additional terms of service and other agreements, as well as the Program Partner’s privacy policy, which may be provided to you separately or made available through the Program Partner’s website, https://checkrpay.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/11034527372052-What-is-the-Checkr-Pay-Privacy-Policy.

1.5 Authorized Users

You may be given the ability to designate individuals (“Authorized Users”) who you authorize to access
your Account and/or conduct transactions through your Account. By establishing an Authorized User,
you understand that any transaction authorization, instruction, or any other action concerning your
Account that your Authorized User engages in will be deemed authorized by you and valid and we are
under no obligation to investigate the authorization, instruction, or activity. You also agree that you will
not hold us liable for acting upon any such authorization, instruction, or activity. We will continue to
treat all actions taken by your Authorized User as authorized by you until you revoke the Authorized
User’s access to your Account by notifying the Program Partner by email as designated above. We also reserve the right to terminate your Authorized User’s access to the Account for any reason and without advance notice.

We may ask you to provide additional documentation evidencing the Authorized User’s authority to
take actions with respect to the Account, such as certified copies of resolutions from your board of
directors or other governing body.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you hereby waive demand, presentment, protest,
notice of protest or dishonor, and all other notices relating to any instrument made, drawn, or endorsed in your name, when such instrument is signed, accepted, or endorsed by an Authorized User. You must notify us immediately by email at the email indicated above of any change in the status of any Authorized User. No action taken by us before we receive proper notification in writing of any such change and have had a reasonable period of time to act upon such notice will be affected by any such notice.

1.6 How To Open an Account

When you work for a Checkr Pay customer (“Checkr Pay Customer” or “Customer”), you may open an
Account after receiving an invitation from such Customer and following the provided instructions.
Each person completing the Account opening process or otherwise completing any Account opening
requirements represents and warrants that he, she or they:

• Are authorized to execute all documents or otherwise complete our requirements in his, her or
  their stated capacity;
• Have furnished all documents or other information necessary to demonstrate that authority;
• Will furnish other documents and complete other requirements as we may request him, her, or them;
• Certify that, to the best of his, her or their knowledge, all information provided to us, including information concerning beneficial owners, is complete and correct;
• and he, she, or they have read this Agreement and agree to be bound by and comply with its terms.

We may refuse to recognize any resolution or document affecting the Account that appears to us to be incomplete, improperly executed, or fraudulent.

Important information about procedures for opening a new Account:

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information identifying each person who opens an Account, including any Authorized Users who may access an Account. This means that when you open an Account, we will ask for information that allows us to identify you, including your name, legal address, date of birth, Social Security Number or Tax Identification Number, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We also may ask for a driver’s license or other identifying documents for your business, Authorized Users, account owners, and your officers, directors, beneficial owners, controlling shareholders and others.

1.7 Minimum Deposits and Balances

There is no minimum deposit required to open an Account and no minimum balance you need to
maintain in your Account.

1.8 Interest Disclosures

This Account is not interest-bearing. No interest will be paid on this Account.

1.9 Power of Attorney and Attorneys-In-Fact

We may allow you to give another person (known as an “attorney-in-fact”) power of attorney to act on
your behalf for your Account. You must obtain written approval from us before we will honor any power
of attorney. Email us at the email address specified above for approval if you plan to create a power of
attorney. Please be aware that it may take up to two (2) weeks for us to review your request. If
approved, we will honor orders and instructions from your attorney-in-fact until

(1) we receive a written revocation from you;

(2) we are notified that you or your attorney-in-fact have died or become
incapacitated; or

(3) we terminate our acceptance of the power of attorney. We may terminate our
acceptance at any time, for any reason and without notice to you, and you will not hold us liable for any losses (as defined below) that may result from such action. You also agree to hold us harmless for any actions we take based on the instructions of your attorney-in-fact, including if it is later determined that your power of attorney was invalid or improperly executed.

1.10 Death or Incapacitation

You agree that if we receive notification or if we have reason to believe that you or any Authorized User has died or become legally incapacitated, we may place a hold on your Account and refuse all
transactions until we know and have verified the identify of your heir, devisee or successor. Until we
received notice and any required proof of death or incapacitation, we may continue to accept deposits
and process transactions to your Account. Your estate will be responsible for repaying us for any tax
liability resulting from payment of your account balance to your estate. You will hold us harmless for any actions we take based on our reasonable belief that you have died or become incapacitated. If certain payments originating from government entities are deposited into your Account after your death, we may be required to return those payments to the originator upon notice.

1.11 Our Relationship With You

By opening an Account, we are establishing an Account relationship with you and committing to act in
good faith and to the exercise of ordinary care in our dealings with you as defined by the Uniform
Commercial Code as adopted by the State of Tennessee. This Agreement and the Account relationship do not create a fiduciary relationship or any other special relationship between you and us.

1.12 Third-Party Service Providers

We work with one or more third-party service providers, including Unit Finance Inc. (“Unit”) and the
Program Partner, in connection with your Account. You acknowledge that we, in our sole discretion,
may use such third-party service providers to fulfill any of our obligations under this agreement,
including by performing functions that you have otherwise authorized us to perform, such as processing transactions, handing account operations including account set-up, transaction monitoring, and customer support, and providing technological connection to the Program Partner and the Bank. Each of these third-party service providers may in turn use their own third-party service providers, at our discretion.

We may also share your information with other service providers that we believe need the information
to perform a technology, business, or other professional function for us such as IT services, maintenance and hosting of our services, marketing partners, accounting, auditing, and tax services, and other professional services.

1.13 Confidentiality and Our Privacy Policy

Your privacy is very important to us. We will disclose information to third parties about your account or
the transfers you make:
i. Where it is necessary for completing transfers;

It is important that you keep track of your transactions and the funds in your Account that are available for you to use (“Available Balance”) by reviewing your transaction history. It is also important to understand that your Available Balance may not reflect transactions you have authorized that have not yet been presented to us for payment.

errors or unauthorized activity. If you identify an error or unauthorized activity, you must notify us
promptly to avoid losing your money. Please refer to the applicable sections below for information
concerning errors and unauthorized activity.

It is important that you protect your Account information to prevent unauthorized transactions and
fraud. Keep your Account number, debit card, and statements secure at all times, and be careful about
who you share this information with. If the Program Partner provides you with access to Online Banking Services, make sure to also keep your computer or mobile device secure at all times and avoid accessing the Online Banking Services when others can see your screen.
If your Account number, debit card, mobile device or Online Banking Services login credentials are lost
or stolen, notify us immediately to keep your losses to a minimum. Please refer below for information
and applicable deadlines for notifying us of losses or theft.

3.6 Transfers To or From Connected Bank Accounts

You may be provided with the ability to link another bank account you have with another financial
institution (“connected bank account”) to your Account with us to make inbound and outbound ACH
transfers between the connected bank account and your Account through the Online Banking Services.

An “inbound transfer” moves funds into your Account from a connected bank account. An “outbound
transfer” moves funds from your Account to a connected bank account. We will facilitate transfers to a
connected bank account separate and apart from any access we provide you to the ACH Origination
Service (see below).

For inbound transfers, we will debit your connected bank account and credit your Account with us on
the next business day after you initiate the transfer. The funds you transfer to your Account will be
made available to you by the fifth (5th) business day after the funds have been credited to your
Account.

For outbound transfers, we will debit your Account with us and credit your connected bank account on
the next business day after you initiate the transfer. The financial institution that holds your connected
bank account determines when those funds will be made available to you in your connected bank
account.

The cut-off time for both inbound and outbound transfers is 3:00 PM ET. Transfer requests that you
make on a business day before the cut-off time will be considered initiated on that day. Transfer
requests that you make after the cut-off time, or on a day that is not a business day, will be considered
initiated the following business day that we are open.

There are limits to the dollar amount of outbound transfers you can make. Please see the relevant
sections on withdrawal limits above. You agree that you will only attempt to link a bank account for which you have the authority to transfer funds. You also agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any claims by any business or person related to the connected bank account, including any other owner of the connected bank account. You may only link a bank account that is a deposit account, such as a checking, savings or money market account.

3.7 No Illegal Activity, Internet Gambling and Right to Refuse Transactions

 

You must not use your Account for any illegal purposes or, regardless of whether it is legal or illegal, for online gambling of any sort, including any betting transaction, purchase of lottery tickets, casino chips, or off-track betting and wagering. We may deny any transaction or refuse to accept any deposit that we believe is related to illegal activity, online gambling or for any other reason at our discretion. However, in the event that a charge or transaction described in this section is approved and processed, you will still be liable for the charges.

3.8 Funds Transfer Services

Funds transfers to or from your Account will be governed by the rules of the funds transfer system(s)
through which the transfers are made (“system rules”), including Fedwire and the National Automated
Clearing House Association ("NACHA"). 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
requirements of the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) and the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”). For additional information on electronic fund
transfers generally, see below. For additional information on ACH transactions, see the relevant titled
sections below. If your Account receives incoming ACH transactions (either credits or debits) initiated from within or outside of the United States, both you and we are subject to the Operating Rules and Guidelines of NACHA and the laws enforced by OFAC. Under such rules and laws, we may temporarily suspend processing of a transaction for greater scrutiny or verification against the OFAC list of blocked parties, which may result in delayed settlement, posting and/or availability of funds.
We reserve the right to temporarily suspend, block or reject the processing of any transaction, to freeze or block certain funds or the full balance of any Account, account owner, account beneficiary, or Authorized User (each, a “Restricted Person”), in each case to the extent we deem reasonably necessary to comply with any notice, order, regulation, rule, requirement or restriction issued or promulgated by OFAC (collectively, the “OFAC Rules”). To comply with OFAC Rules, we may temporarily suspend processing of a transaction or the availability of a balance for greater scrutiny or verification against the OFAC list of blocked parties, which may result in delayed settlement, posting and/or availability of funds.

If we determine there is a violation or potential violation of the OFAC Rules, or if we cannot satisfactorily resolve a suspected or potential violation, we may reject such transaction or freeze or block the subject funds or full balance of any Account or Restricted Person. If we block the subject funds and you believe you have adequate grounds to seek the return of any blocked funds, it is your sole responsibility to pursue the matter with the appropriate governmental authorities. Please see the OFAC website for procedures and form required to seek a release of blocked funds.

You also will observe all anti-money laundering and exchange control laws and regulations, including
economic and trade sanctions promulgated by OFAC, in relation to any funds transfer, and you will use
all reasonable efforts to assist us to do likewise. You warrant that the information given to us by you is
accurate. We may disclose any information given to us that we in our sole discretion think 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 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 with
respect to individuals, entities, or particular transactions. You warrant that you will 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 User, 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 funds 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 will not bear interest against us. You further agree that we may pay such monies to the appropriate legal, regulatory, or governmental authority, when required by law or regulation.

3.9 How We Post Transactions To Your Account and Determine Your Available Balance

3.9.1 Posting Overview

To understand how we post transactions to your Account, it is important to first understand the
difference between your Available Balance and your ledger balance. Your Available Balance is the
amount of money you have in your Account at any given time that is available for you to use. Your
ledger balance is the balance in your Account at the beginning of the day after we have posted all
transactions to your Account from the day before. We use your Available Balance to authorize your
transactions throughout the day and determine whether you have sufficient funds to pay your
transactions. Here are some additional terms that are helpful to understand:
▪ Credit and debit – A credit increases your balance and a debit decreases your balance.
▪ Post or posted – Transactions that are paid from or deposited to your Account. Posted
transactions will either increase or decrease both your Available Balance and your ledger
balance.

▪ Pending – Transactions that we receive notice of and are scheduled to post to your Account.
Pending transactions affect your Available Balance, but not your ledger balance.

▪ Card authorization and settlement – When you use a debit card to make a purchase, the
transaction occurs in two steps: card authorization and settlement. Card authorizations
reduce your Available Balance, but not your ledger balance. Settlement reduces both your
Available Balance and your ledger balance. Card authorizations are removed when
settlement occurs or after a certain number of days have passed, whichever is sooner.
Please see below for more information about card authorizations and settlement.

3.9.2 Posting Order

We receive transactions throughout the day and post them to your Account as they are received and in the order that they are received. Note that for debit card transactions, we consider the transaction
received when the merchant requests settlement, which may occur several days after you authorize the transaction. See below for additional information concerning how debit card transactions are processed. We may change the order in which we post transactions to your Account at our discretion and without notice to you. It is therefore important for you to keep track of the deposits that are made and the transactions you authorize to make sure there are sufficient funds in your Account to cover all
transactions and any applicable fees.

3.9.3 Determining Your Available Balance

To determine your Available Balance, we start with your ledger balance at the beginning of the business day, add any pending credits or deposits that we make available to you, and subtract any card authorizations and pending debits. All transactions are debited or credited from your Available Balance in the order received.

You can check your Available Balance by viewing your Wallet. Keep in mind that your Available Balance
may not reflect every transaction you have initiated or previously authorized. For example, your
Available Balance may not include transactions you have authorized that we have not received.

3.9.4 Debit Card Authorizations

If you are issued a debit card with your Account, you will be able to use your card to pay for goods or
services or conduct other transactions with a merchant. When you engage in a transaction with a
merchant using your debit card, the merchant will request preauthorization (“card authorization”) for
the transaction. If there are sufficient available funds in your Account, we will approve the request and
reduce your Available Balance for as long as the card authorization remains on your Account.
Your Available Balance will generally be reduced by the amount of the card authorization. If you use
your card at a restaurant, your Available Balance may be reduced by the amount of the card
authorization plus up to an additional twenty percent (20%) of that amount, to account for potential
tipping.

The card authorization will remain on your Account until the merchant sends us the final amount of the
transaction and requests payment (“settlement”). In most cases, If the merchant does not request
settlement, or the merchant is delayed in requesting settlement, the card authorization will
automatically be removed after three (3) days. However, for certain merchants such as hotels and rental car companies, it may take up to thirty (30) days for the card authorization to be removed.
It is important to understand that the merchant controls the timing of card authorizations or settlement.

A merchant may request settlement after the card authorization has been removed from your Account.
This means that if you use the funds in your Account after the card authorization has been removed and the merchant later requests settlement, your Account may become overdrawn. A merchant may also request settlement for an amount that is different than the card authorization. Therefore, it is important that you keep track of your transactions and your balance. Once we have approved a card authorization, we cannot stop the transaction, and you will be responsible for repaying any negative balance that may occur.

3.10 Statements

Statements will periodically be provided to you electronically as long as your Account is not inactive. You will receive a statement monthly as long as you have transactions on your Account during the statement period. If there were no transactions on your Account, we may not provide you with statements or may provide you with statements on a less frequent basis. You will not receive paper statements.

3.11 Errors On Your Account and Limitations of Liability

You agree to carefully review your statements and promptly report to us any errors or unauthorized
activity by email at support@checkrpay.com within thirty (30) days after we make the statement
available to you. Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement or required by law, if you do not provide
us with timely notice of an error or unauthorized activity, we will deem our records concerning your
Account to be correct and you agree that we will not be liable to you for any loss you suffer relating to
the error or unauthorized activity. You further agree that we may debit or credit your Account at any
time and without notice to you to correct an error or address unauthorized activity.

In any case, our maximum liability to you will never exceed the amount of actual damages proven by
you. Our liability may also be further reduced by the amount of the loss that is caused by your own
negligence or lack of care, as well as any recovery of the loss you obtain from third parties. Please refer to the sections below for additional information concerning errors and unauthorized transactions
involving electronic fund transfers and related limitations of liability. There may also be other limitations of liability contained in this Agreement.

3.12 Overdrafts, Nonsufficient Funds and Negative Balances

We do not permit you to overdraw your Account. If the Available Balance in your Account is not
sufficient to cover any transaction you have authorized, we may return the transaction or refuse to
process the transaction. However, there may be instances where your Account can still go into the
negative, such as if a deposit is returned. A deposit must be made immediately to cover any negative
balance. If your Account has a negative balance for sixty (60) calendar days or more, we may close your Account.

3.13 Closing Your Account and Account Suspensions

You can close your Account at any time and for any reason by web form at support.checkrpay.com. We reserve the right to refuse your request if you have a negative balance on your Account. We recommend that you transfer or withdraw any funds you may have in the Account prior to submitting a request to close the Account to avoid delays in receiving your funds.

We may also suspend or close your Account, or suspend, or disable any service or feature of your
Account, at our discretion without prior notice to you. 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 Unit, if multiple transactions are returned on your Account, or if you otherwise present undue risk to us or our third-party service providers.

Accounts with a zero balance will continue to be charged any applicable fees until you request to close your Account. We may close an Account with a zero balance on the fee period ending date or at month end without prior notification to you. Once an Account is closed (either by you or us), no fees will be assessed on the Account.

We may also close your Account if no deposits or withdrawals have been made from your Account in
over twelve (12) months. In addition, cancelling your enrollment in the Online Banking Services with the Program Partner will result in our closure of the Account and our return of your funds.
If your Account is closed with a balance greater than $1.00, we will return any funds you may have in the Account to you by ACH transfer to another bank account or by paper check. We reserve the right not to return the funds to you if the balance in your Account is $1.00 or less.

We are not responsible to you for any damages you may suffer as a result of the closure or suspension
of your Account. 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 all indemnifications obligation by you, our limitations of
liability, and all terms governing arbitration).

3.14 Dormancy, Inactivity and Unclaimed Property

State 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 becomes dormant, and we may be required to send the balance in your Account if it becomes dormant to the state of your last known address. We will make 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, you must apply to the appropriate state agency to reclaim your funds. You can avoid the surrender of your funds by simply conducting transactions, contacting us about your Account or replying to any abandoned property notices we may provide to you.

We may also place your Account in an inactive status if you have not had any transaction for at least six (6) months. If your Account becomes inactive, you may not receive statements or be able to conduct certain transactions.

Inactive Accounts must be reactivated. Contact us by web form at support.checkrpay.com to reactivate your Account.

3.15 Account Fees and Fee Schedule

You will pay all fees and charges applicable to your Account. All fee amounts will be withdrawn from
your Account and will be assessed regardless of whether you have sufficient funds in your Account,
except where prohibited by law. Fees are subject to change at any time. We will provide you advance
notice of any changes where required by law.

We will charge you the following fees in connection with your Account and any EFT made through your
Account:

Fee Description	Fee Amount and Frequency	Additional Details
Same Day ACH transaction fee	$0.50	Fees will be deducted automatically from the funds withdrawn at the point of transfer.
International transaction fee	1% of the transaction	You will be charged this fee for any ATM or POS transactions conducted outside the United States
Instant push-to-debit fee	2.2% of the transaction ($1 minimum fee)	Fees will be deducted automatically from the funds withdrawn at the point of transfer. If 2.2% of the total transaction amount equals less than $1.00, you will still be charged the $1.00 minimum fee.
Returned deposit fee	0.3% deposit value	Fees will be transferred from your Account at the end of each business day.
Out-of-network ATM transaction fee	N/A	You may be charged a fee, including for balance inquiries, by the operator of an out-of- network ATM. You may be charged a fee for a balance inquiry even if you do not complete a fund transfer. You can avoid fees by using an in-network ATM. You can identify an in-network ATM by looking for the Allpoint logo on or near the ATM

 4. Electronic Fund Transfers

Your Account allows you to withdraw funds up to the Available Balance or make deposits through
electronic fund transfers (“EFTs”). EFTs are transactions that are processed by electronic means and
include, among others, ACH transfers, debit card transactions and direct deposits. This Section provides you with information and important disclosures and terms about the EFTs that are permitted on your Account. You may also receive additional services through Online Banking Services provided by the Program Partner, that allow you to initiate EFTs to and from your Account that are not described in this Agreement. In the event the Program Partner provides such additional services, you will be provided separate agreements and disclosures applicable to those services by the Program Partner.

4.1 Types of EFTs Supported by Your Account

Your Account allows the following types of EFTs:

▪ Transfers to or from your Account to a connected bank account
▪ Transfers from your Account to a merchant or other third party by providing the third party
with your Account routing number and account number
▪ Purchases or other transactions using your debit card
▪ ATM withdrawals using your debit card

4.2 Limitations on EFTs

There are limitations on the frequency and amount of transactions you can make to or from your
Account. These limits are different for each type of transaction. For limits that apply to transactions that credit or deposit funds into your Account, please refer above for information concerning deposits. For limits that apply to transactions that debit or withdraw from your Account, please refer above to the section concerning withdrawals. For limits that apply to transfers to or from your Account from a
connected bank account, please refer above to the section concerning transfers to or from connected
accounts. These security-related limits may change from time to time.

If you have been issued a debit card for your Account, there may also be transaction limitations that
apply to your use of the card. Please refer to the applicable cardholder agreement provided to you with your card for information on any limitations and other terms.

4.3 Documentation of Your Transactions
Periodic statements. You will get a monthly account statement (unless there are no transfers in a
particular month).

We will provide you information about each transaction that debits or credits your Account on your
statements. Please refer above for information about statements. You may also be able to view your
transaction history and other information through Online Banking Services provided to you by the
Program Partner. You may also contact us support@checkrpay.com for information concerning your
Account or your transactions.

If you are provided with a debit card, you can get receipts at the time you make a withdrawal at an ATM or a purchase at a point-of-sale terminal when using your card.

4.4 Preauthorized Transfers, Stop Payments and Notices of Varying Amounts

If you authorize us or another company or person to withdraw from your Account on a regular basis
(such as when you sign up for “autopay” to pay a recurring bill or invoice), it is called a “Preauthorized
Transfer.” You may request that we place a stop payment on Preauthorized Transfers, as well as get
notification when the amount of a particular withdrawal will be different from the amount of the last
withdrawal. We may charge a fee to stop payment on Preauthorized Transfers (as outlined in the fees
section above).

4.4.1 How to Request a Stop Payment

If you authorize a third party to take payments from your Account on a regular basis through a
Preauthorized Transfer, you can place a stop payment on those payments by contacting us by email at
the address listed above at least three (3) business days before the next payment is scheduled to be
made. To be effective, a stop payment request must be received within this time specified, and with all
of the information required below, so as to give the Bank a reasonable opportunity to act on it.

You must provide us with (a) your name, (b) your Account number, (c) the company or person taking the payments, and (d) the date and amount of the Preauthorized Transfer you wish to stop. If you want all future payments from that company or person stopped, be sure to tell us that as well. If you do not
provide us with the correct information, such as the correct payee or the correct amount of the
payment you wish to stop, we may not be able to stop the payment.

4.4.2 It is your responsibility to ensure that all of the information supplied in you
notice is correct and to promptly inform us of any inaccuracies.

We are not liable for failing to stop payment if you have not given us sufficient information or if your stop payment request comes too late
for us to act on it. If we stop payment, you will indemnify, defend and hold us and our officers, directors, shareholders, employees, successors, predecessors, representatives, principals, agents, assigns, parents, subsidiaries and/or insurers (collectively, "Indemnified Parties") harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses for attorneys, experts and consultants, reasonable out-of-pocket costs, interest and penalties), settlements, fines, fees, penalties, equitable relief, judgments, and damages ("Losses") imposed on or sustained, incurred or suffered by any of the Indemnified Parties, whether actual or threatened or proven or not, in respect of any and all actions, audits, arbitrations, assertions, suits, mediations, litigations, proceedings, examinations, hearings, inquiries, investigations, charges, complaints, claims (including counter or cross-claims), or demands by whosoever asserted ("Claims"), without regard to the merit or lack thereof, arising from or related in any way to our refusal to pay the transaction on which you stopped payment. The foregoing indemnity will not apply if and to the extent expressly prohibited or restricted by the laws or regulations governing you or your Account.

4.5 Questions About Your EFTs and Reporting Errors or Unauthorized EFTs

You may contact us with questions concerning EFTs that occur on your Account. For card related
transactions, contact us at 1-833-333-0417; for all other transactions contact us via web form at 
support.checkrpay.com.

You may also contact us using the methods above to report suspected errors or unauthorized EFTs. Be sure to contact us immediately if you believe that an error or unauthorized EFT has occurred or may occur concerning your Account, or if your Account, debit card, or Online Banking Services login

after we sent the FIRST statement on which the error or unauthorized EFT appeared. You must provide
us with the following information:

6. A description of the error or the EFT you are unsure about and why you believe it is an error or
you need more information.
7. The dollar amount of the suspected error.
8. If you tell us orally, we may require that you send us your complaint or question in writing by
email within ten (10) business days.
After receiving your notice of error or unauthorized EFT, we will investigate and provide you with the
results and any corrections we make to your Account within a commercially reasonable time.

4.6 Our Liability for a Failure To Complete A Transaction, Unauthorized Transactions or Failure to Stop a Payment

We will respond to notices of errors or unauthorized EFTs and requests to stop payments in a
commercially reasonable manner and time. If we do not complete a transfer to or from your Account on time or in the correct amount according to our Agreement with you, we will be liable for your losses or damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for instance:
▪ If you do not tell us about an error or unauthorized EFT within thirty (30) days after the first
statement showing the error or unauthorized EFT is made available to you; or
▪ If you do not provide us with the information necessary to place a stop payment on a
Preauthorized Transfer in a timely manner.

In addition, we are not liable for any losses you may incur in any of the following circumstances:
▪ If, through no fault of ours, you do not have enough money in your Account to make the
transfer.
▪ If the ATM where you are making a transfer does not have enough cash.
▪ If the failure is due to an equipment or system breakdown, such as a problem with features
of the Online Banking Services provided by the Program Partner, that you knew about
before you began a transaction.
▪ If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood) prevent the transfer despite
reasonable precautions we have taken.
▪ If your funds are not available due to a hold or if your funds are subject to legal process.
▪ If we do not complete a transaction because we or Unit has reason to believe the
transaction is unauthorized or illegal.
▪ If your Account is closed or inactive.

There are additional limitations on our liability in this Agreement and there may be additional
exceptions or limitations stated in our or Unit’s agreements with you or permitted by law.

6. Other Legal Terms and Conditions

on or sustained, incurred or suffered by any of the Indemnified Parties, whether actual or threatened or proven or not, in respect of any and all Claims, without regard to the merit or lack thereof, arising out of, or related in any way to (a) the matters set forth in this Agreement, including any Claims by any business or person related to the connected bank account, including any other owner of the connected bank account; (b) breach of this Agreement, including any warranties; (c) our taking any action or not taking any action that we are entitled to take pursuant to this Agreement, including attempting to cancel or amend a wire transferor actions we take based on the instructions of your attorney-in-fact, including if it is later determined that your power of attorney was invalid or improperly executed; (d) any action or omission by you or any Authorized User; (e) fraudulent activity; or (f) our action or inaction in reliance upon oral, written or electronic instructions or information from you or any Authorized User.

You also agree to grant us a security interest in your Account to secure payment of any money that you owe to us or will owe us arising under this Agreement or any other agreements with us. You
acknowledge that this security interest is consensual and in addition to any right of set-off. We may
exercise our security interest or right of set-off without regard to the source of the funds in your

disclosure.

6.8 Conflicts and Section Headings

If there is a conflict between this Agreement and any other document or statement made to you
concerning the Account, this Agreement will govern. If there is a conflict between this Agreement and
any other document or statement made to you concerning any services or products other than the
Account, the separate terms and conditions applicable to that service or product will govern. Section
headings that appear in this Agreement are for convenience purposes only and are intended to help you find information. They should not be construed as affecting the meaning of the Agreement.

6.9 Severability

If any court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of this Agreement is

permitted by law, the parties waive any provision of law which prohibits or renders unenforceable any
provisions of this Agreement, and to the extent that such waiver is not permitted by law, you and us
agree that such provision will be interpreted as modified to the minimum extent necessary to render the provisions enforceable.

 

6.10 Governing Law, Forum and Time Limits

All actions relating to your Account and this Agreement will be governed by the laws and regulations of the United States and the State of Tennessee where your Account will be opened, irrespective of conflict of law principles. You agree that any dispute arising under this Agreement or relating in any way to your relationship with us that is not arbitrated will be resolved in a federal or state court located in Tennessee and that you will be subject to such court’s jurisdiction.
Except where prohibited by law, you agree that you must file any lawsuit or arbitration against us within two (2) years after the claim arises unless federal or Tennessee law, or another agreement you have with us, provides for a shorter time. If federal or Tennessee law requires a longer time period than the time periods in this Agreement, you agree to the shortest time period permitted under the law.

7. Arbitration and Waivers

BE SURE THAT YOU HAVE READ THIS PROVISION CAREFULLY AND UNDERSTAND THAT IT LIMITS YOUR RIGHTS IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND US.

7.1 Election to Arbitrate

You, Program Partner, and the Bank agree that the sole and exclusive forum and remedy for resolution
of a claim be final and binding arbitration pursuant to this section (the “Arbitration Provision”). As used
in this Arbitration Provision, “Claim” will include any past, present, or future claim, dispute, or
controversy involving you (or persons claiming through or connected with you), on the one hand, and us on the other hand, relating to or arising out of this Agreement, and/or the activities or relationships that involve, lead to, or result from this Agreement, including the validity or enforceability of this Arbitration Provision, any part thereof, or the entire Agreement. Claims are subject to arbitration regardless of whether they arise from contract; tort (intentional or otherwise); a constitution, statute, common law, or principles of equity; or otherwise. Claims include matters arising as initial claims, counterclaims, cross-claims, third-party claims, or otherwise. Please note that you may continue to assert Claims in small claims court, if your Claims qualify and so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis. The scope of this Arbitration Provision is to be given the broadest possible interpretation that is enforceable.
You have the right to opt-out of this arbitration clause and it will not affect any other terms and
conditions of this Agreement or your relationship with us. TO OPT OUT, YOU MUST NOTIFY US IN
WRITING OF YOUR INTENT TO DO SO WITHIN SIXTY (60) DAYS AFTER OPENING YOUR ACCOUNT. Your opt-out notice can be a letter that is signed by you that states “I elect to opt out of the arbitration clause in my Business Deposit Account Agreement for Account #” or any words to that effect. Send the notice to:

210 East Main Street, Rogersville, TN 37857.

 

An election to opt out applies only to the account or accounts identified in your opt-out notice or, if no specific accounts are identified in your notice, then to any account(s) that became subject to the arbitration clause within the sixty (60)-day period before we received your notice. The arbitration clause will apply to any claims between us relating to any account(s) for which we do not receive an opt-out notice as described in this subsection.

7.2 Applicability of the Federal Arbitration Act; Arbitrator’s Powers

This Arbitration Provision is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce and will be
governed by and enforceable under the Federal Arbitration Act (the “FAA”). The arbitrator will apply
substantive law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations. The arbitrator may award damages or other types of relief permitted by applicable substantive law, subject to the limitations set forth in this Arbitration Provision. The arbitrator will not be bound by judicial rules of procedure and evidence that would apply in a court. The arbitrator will take steps to reasonably protect confidential information. In any arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement, the arbitrator will apply the limitation of liability set forth above and, for the avoidance of doubt, is not empowered to award (a) punitive or exemplary Losses, except where permitted by statute, or (b) incidental, indirect or consequential Losses, or Losses for lost profits. The parties waive any right to recover all such Losses.

7.3 Informal Dispute Resolution

If a Claim arises, our goal is to address your concerns and, if we are unable to do so, to provide you with a neutral and cost-effective means of resolving the dispute quickly. You agree that before filing any claim in arbitration, you will first submit your Claim to us by web form at support.checkrpay.com and
provide us with the opportunity to resolve your concern prior to initiating arbitration.

7.4 Arbitration Procedures

The party initiating arbitration will do so with the Judicial Alternatives and Mediation Services (“JAMS”). The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator according to, and the location of the arbitration will be determined in accordance with, the rules and policies of the administrator selected, except to the extent the rules conflict with this Arbitration Provision or any countervailing law. If you have any questions concerning JAMS or would like to obtain a copy of the JAMS arbitration rules, you may call 1(800) 352-5267 or visit their web site at: www.jamsadr.com. In the case of a conflict between the rules and policies of the administrator and this Arbitration Provision, this Arbitration Provision will control, subject to countervailing law, unless all parties to the arbitration consent to have the rules and policies of the administrator apply. The arbitration will be held in the United States county where you live or work, or any other location we agree to.

7.5 Arbitration Fees

If we initiate arbitration, we will pay all the administrator's filing costs and administrative fees (other
than hearing fees). If you initiate arbitration, filing costs and administrative fees (other than hearing
fees) will be paid in accordance with the rules of the administrator selected, or in accordance with
countervailing law if contrary to the administrator's rules. We will pay the administrator's hearing fees
for one (1) full day of arbitration hearings. Fees for hearings that exceed one (1) day will be paid by the party requesting the hearing, unless the administrator's rules or applicable law require otherwise, or you request that we pay them and we agree to do so. Each party will bear the expense of its own attorneys' fees, except as otherwise provided by law. If a statute gives you the right to recover any of these fees, these statutory rights will apply in the arbitration notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein.

7.6 Appeals

Within thirty (30) days of a final award by the arbitrator, any party may appeal the award for
reconsideration by a three-arbitrator panel selected according to the rules of the arbitrator
administrator. In the event of such an appeal, any opposing party may cross-appeal within thirty (30)
days after notice of the appeal. The panel will reconsider de novo all aspects of the initial award that are appealed. Costs and conduct of any appeal will be governed by this Arbitration Provision and the
administrator's rules, in the same way as the initial arbitration proceeding. Any award by the individual
arbitrator that is not subject to appeal, and any panel award on appeal, will be final and binding, except for any appeal right under the FAA, and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

7.7 No Class Actions

NO ARBITRATION SHALL PROCEED ON A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE BASIS (INCLUDING AS PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ON BEHALF OF OTHERS), EVEN IF THE CLAIM OR CLAIMS THAT ARE THE SUBJECT OF THE ARBITRATION HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN ASSERTED (OR COULD HAVE BEEN ASSERTED) IN A COURT AS CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE ACTIONS IN A COURT.

Unless consented to in writing by all parties to the arbitration, no party to the arbitration may join, consolidate, or otherwise bring claims for or on behalf of two or more individuals or unrelated corporate entities in the same arbitration unless those persons are parties to a single transaction. Unless consented to in writing by all parties to the arbitration, an award in arbitration will determine the rights and obligations of the named parties only, and only with respect to the claims in arbitration, and will not (a) determine the rights, obligations, or interests of anyone other than a named party, or resolve any Claim of anyone other than a named party; nor (b) make an award for the benefit of, or against, anyone other than a named party.

No administrator or arbitrator will have the power or authority to waive, modify, or fail to enforce this
section, and any attempt to do so, whether by rule, policy, arbitration decision or otherwise, will be
invalid and unenforceable. Any challenge to the validity of this section will be determined exclusively by a court and not by the administrator or any arbitrator.

7.8 Survival and Severability of Arbitration Provision

This Arbitration Provision will survive the termination of this Agreement. If any portion of this
Arbitration Provision other than the subsection titled “No Class Actions” is deemed invalid or
unenforceable, the remaining portions of this Arbitration Provision will nevertheless remain valid and in
force. If there is a final judicial determination that applicable law precludes enforcement of this
Arbitration Provision’s limitations as to a particular claim for relief or particular term, then that claim
(and only that claim) or that term (and only that term) must be severed from the Arbitration Provision
and may be brought in court. If an arbitration is brought on a class, representative, or collective basis,
and the limitations on such proceedings in the previous subsection are finally adjudicated pursuant to
the last sentence of that subsection as unenforceable, then no arbitration will be had. In no event will
any invalidation be deemed to authorize an arbitrator to determine Claims or make awards beyond
those authorized in this Arbitration Provision.

7.9 Judicial Forum for Claims

Except as otherwise required by applicable law, in the event that this Arbitration Provision is found not
to apply to you or your Claim, you and the Bank agree that any judicial proceeding (other than small
claims actions) will be brought in the federal or state courts of Tennessee. Both you and the Bank
consent to venue and personal jurisdiction there. All parties agree to waive our right to a jury trial.

7.10 WAIVER OF RIGHT TO LITIGATE

THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY HAVE A RIGHT TO LITIGATE CLAIMS THROUGH A COURT

9. Miscellaneous

Except with respect to Indemnified Parties and except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, this
Agreement is not intended to and shall not be construed to give any third party any interest or rights
(including any third-party beneficiary rights) with respect to or in connection with any agreement or
provision contained herein or contemplated hereby. Use of the Account is subject to all applicable rules and customs of any clearinghouse or other association involved in transactions. The Bank does not waive its rights by delaying or failing to exercise them at any time. In case any one or more of the
provisions contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other
provisions of this Agreement, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid or illegal or
unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. Upon such determination that any term or
other provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the court or other tribunal making such
determination is authorized and instructed to modify this Agreement so as to affect the original intent
of the parties as closely as possible so that the transactions and agreements contemplated herein are
consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible. 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. You agree that this Agreement and other agreements or disclosures you may receive from us with respect to the Account or your debit card, contain the entire statement of the terms and conditions, which apply to the subject matter hereof. If any term or condition of this Agreement should be invalidated or unenforceable for any reason, all other terms and conditions will continue in full force and effect.
