    Client understands and agrees that Client's transactions are not governed by Regulation E or any other consumer financial protection law.

  4. Instructions and Communications

    1. For some Treasury Management Services, Bank may choose to honor Client's request to give Bank verbal or written instructions regarding the Treasury Management Service. Bank may in good faith rely on such verbal or written instructions that purport to come from a User of the Client without independent verification by Bank, unless a Security Procedure for such Service requires verification.

    2. By utilizing the Services available under this Agreement, Client will be entitled to authorize various transactions electronically that otherwise would require written authorization. In addition, Client may have Accounts that require multiple signers to execute transactions. Client agrees that, regardless of such Account instruction, Bank is authorized to complete each transaction initiated electronically by means of the Internet in accordance with the Security Procedures, including but not limited to, transfer of funds, credit payments and issuances of Checks or electronic payments.

    3. Client may elect to send or receive instructions or reports from Bank related to Treasury Management Services via electronic means, including, without limitation, facsimile transmission, voice mail, secured email, pager or other electronic or telephonic methods ("Electronic Transmission"). Client acknowledges that such Electronic Transmissions are an inherently insecure communication method due to the possibility of error, delay and observation or receipt by unauthorized personnel. Bank may rely in good faith on Client's instructions regarding how and to what number or email address Electronic Transmissions should be sent and may rely on any Electronic Transmission that it reasonably believes to have been initiated by the Client. Should Client elect to send or receive Electronic Transmissions to or from Bank, Client assumes all risks, and Bank shall not be liable for any loss that results from the nonreceipt, disclosure or alteration of any such Electronic Transmission.

    4. All Electronic Transmissions from Bank or its Service Providers will be provided by one of the following methods: (i) via secure email (any Electronic communication sent by secure email will be deemed to have been received by Client when Bank or Bank's Service Provider send it to Client, whether or not Client receives the email); (ii) by access to a website that Bank will designate in an email notice Bank sends to Client at the time the information is available; (iii) by posting the communication to the Business Online Banking website; or (v) by requesting Client to download a PDF containing the communication.

    5. Bank will never contact Client by email in order to ask for or to verify Account numbers, Security Procedures or credentials, or any sensitive or Confidential Information. In the event Client receives an email or other electronic communication that Client believes, or have reason to believe, is fraudulent, Client should not respond to the email, provide any information to the email sender, click on any links in the email, or otherwise comply with any instructions in the email.

    6. In order for Bank to service Client's Account, mitigate fraud or to collect any amounts Client owe, Bank or Bank's Service Provider may from time to time make calls and/or send text messages to Client at any telephone number(s) associated with Client's Account, including wireless telephone numbers that could result in charges to Client. The manner in which these calls or text messages are made to Client may include, but is not limited to, the use of prerecorded/artificial voice messages and/or an automatic telephone dialing system.

  5. Electronic Disclosures and Agreements

    1. Client agrees that Bank may provide Client with all legal and other disclosures, notices, and other communications with respect to Services, including Fee Schedules and amendments to this Agreement, in electronic form. Bank may notify Client of any future notices by sending an alert to the email address Client provided on the Set-up Schedule or by other electronic/online notification method. Client should print or save a copy of all disclosures delivered electronically. Client may request a paper copy of the Agreement from Bank at any time free of charge.

    2. Bank may provide Client the option of entering into this Agreement or any Set-up Schedule, or an amendment thereto, with a digital signature. Client hereby agrees that Client's use of such digital signature will represent the written signature(s) of Client's Authorized Signer(s) and will bind Client to the terms and conditions of the applicable agreement, addendum or form.

  6. Administrator and Users

    Client shall appoint an Administrator for each Treasury Management Service that requires one as specified in the applicable Service Terms & Conditions, who shall in turn appoint Users. Client may revoke the authority of or change the Administrator at any time upon prior written notice and execution of additional documentation required by Bank. Such change or revocation shall not be binding upon Bank until it has received the required written notice and has had a reasonable opportunity to act thereon. In any event, Bank may act on instructions that it believes in good faith were provided by an Administrator or User, or anyone purporting to be an Administrator or User.

  7. Security Procedures and Client Obligations

    Security Procedures, designed to verify the origination but not errors in transmission or content of instructions, orders and other communications sent by Bank and Client, will be used in connection with certain Treasury Management Services. Bank reserves the right to issue new Security Procedures and/or to cancel or change any Security Procedure from time to time. Client agrees that the Security Procedures are commercially reasonable for its specific needs. Continued usage of the applicable Service constitutes Client's ongoing agreement that the Security Procedures for that Service are commercially reasonable. The specific Security Procedures for each Treasury Management Service are as set forth in the Business Online Banking Service Terms in Part II of the Agreement and/or in the applicable Service Terms & Conditions.

    1. Bank may always rely on transmissions from Client in accordance with the Security Procedures, even if the actual user is not a User, regardless of whether Client has notified Bank of a change in User identity. Bank will not be obligated to act on a communication not transmitted in accordance with the Security Procedures and may refuse to act on any communication where Bank reasonably doubts Client's authorization, contents, origination or compliance with the Security Procedures. Bank shall have no duty to discover, and shall not be liable for, errors or omissions by Client. If Bank complies with the Security Procedures in respect to a communication, Bank will be entitled to act on that communication and will not be obligated to verify the content of such communication, establish the identity of the person giving it, or, unless otherwise required, await any confirmation thereof, and Bank shall not be liable for acting on, and Client will be bound by, any communication sent in Client's name, whether or not authorized.

    2. Client acknowledges the critical importance of maintaining the strict confidentiality of all Account numbers, Security Procedures and related information and agrees to protect the confidentiality of and safeguard such information. Client shall not disclose Security Procedures except to employees or agents authorized to act for Client in connection with Treasury Management Services. Client assumes all risk of accidental disclosure or inadvertent use of such Security Procedures by any party whatsoever, whether such disclosure or use is on account of Client's negligence or deliberate acts or otherwise. Bank shall not be liable for any loss or damage resulting from fraudulent, unauthorized or otherwise improper use of any Security Procedures.

    3. Client has important responsibilities for protecting Client's Accounts and the Treasury Management Services used by Client and for combating fraud and the unauthorized use of Client's Accounts. Client represents and warrants that Client has in place and will maintain and enforce effective policies and procedures to monitor and control the secure use of its Accounts and the Services including:

      • Ensuring that passcodes, Security Procedures, access devices and Account numbers are disclosed only to Client's personnel and agents who are authorized to have and use them;

      • Controlling the use of Internet access, Software, scanning equipment and other systems and devices used in communications with Bank;

      • Training personnel on the proper use of the Treasury Management Services and fraud prevention measures particularly in connection with Internet access and email; and

      • Controlling check stock, mechanical signing devices and Account information.

    4. Client acknowledges that there is a growing risk of losses resulting from unauthorized transactions in Accounts. Bank offers Services that provide effective means for controlling such risk, including: (i) ACH Debit Block and ACH Positive Pay, (ii) Account Reconciliation and (iii) Positive Pay. In addition, Bank may recommend that Client use certain fraud prevention practices to reduce Client's exposure to online fraud. Each of these practices is an industry "best practice." An example of a best practice is Dual Control, which requires a payment or user modification initiated by one User to be approved by a second User on a different computer or Mobile Device before it takes effect. Client will be treated as having assumed the risk of any loss that could have been prevented by its use of any fraud prevention Service or best practice Bank has recommended to Client, if Client: (A) declines to enroll in the fraud prevention Service(s); (B) enrolls in the fraud prevention Service but fails to use it in accordance with the Service Terms & Conditions or Set-up Schedule applicable to it; or (C) fails to adopt and follow a best practice. In that event, Client will be precluded from asserting any claims against Bank for paying unauthorized, altered, counterfeit or other fraudulent items that such tool was designed to detect or deter, and Bank will not be required to re-credit Client's Account or otherwise have any liability for paying such items.

  8. Network Security

    Client shall be solely responsible for the implementation of all commercially reasonable security procedures to control access to Client's computer systems and to protect any data files stored thereon. Such procedures include but are not limited to anti-virus, physical, logical, and network security control systems and devices. Client should use a firewall product especially if it has a broadband Internet connection such as DSL or cable modem. Client must use a reputable antivirus/adware and anti-spyware program on its computer/device that runs daily and a process to ensure that patches for all Software and operating system modules are current. It is recommended that Client use the most current fully patched versions of Internet browsers for accessing Business Online Banking, designated websites or SFTPs. Client is solely responsible and liable for any hack, unauthorized access or related problems or other unknown hazards that originates from Client that may be associated with using email or the Internet to deliver or receive Services.

  9. Security Incident Reporting

    CLIENT MUST IMMEDIATELY NOTIFY BANK BY PHONE IF THE CONFIDENTIALITY OR INTEGRITY OF ANY SECURITY PROCEDURE IS BREACHED OR THREATENED, FOLLOWED BY A WRITTEN CONFIRMATION OF SECURITY BREACH. BANK WILL HAVE NO LIABILITY TO THE CLIENT FOR ANY UNAUTHORIZED TRANSACTION MADE USING A SECURITY DEVICE THAT OCCURS BEFORE THE CLIENT HAS NOTIFIED BANK OF THE POSSIBLE UNAUTHORIZED USE AND BANK HAS HAD A REASONABLE OPPORTUNITY TO ACT ON THAT NOTICE. In the event of a breach, Client agrees to cooperate with Bank in connection with its incident response investigation in a timely manner and to provide any information requested by Bank within two (2) Business Days of the request. Client will permit Bank's authorized representatives access to Client's computer systems in connection with such investigation. Client will indemnify and hold Bank harmless from and against any third party claim arising in connection with a data security breach, except to the extent the breach is caused by Bank's gross negligence or willful misconduct or the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Bank's Service Provider.

  10. Confidentiality

    1. All user guides, manuals, data, Software, processes, Security Procedures and other information provided to Client in connection with any Treasury Management Service and all fee and pricing information with respect to the Treasury Management Services (the "Information") constitute proprietary and confidential property of Bank and/or Bank's relevant licensors, suppliers or Service Providers. Client will not make any copies, in whole or in part, of any Information without Bank's prior written consent. Client agrees to notify Bank immediately if the confidentiality of any Information is compromised. Client agrees to use the Information only in the manner specified by Bank and in the ordinary course of Client's business, to return it to Bank upon termination of the relevant Treasury Management Service, and to keep the Information confidential and limit access thereto only to Client's agents and employees who require access in the normal course of their duties, except to the extent the Information is already in the public domain or Client is required to disclose the Information by law. Nothing in this Section will prohibit or limit any party's use of Information (i) that can be demonstrated to have been previously known to it, other than through its relationship with the other parties without a confidentiality restriction on the use of such Information; (ii) independently developed by it, as established by written evidence; (iii) rightfully acquired by it from a third party with full legal right to disclose such information; (iv) disclosed without similar restrictions by the party that disclosed such information pursuant to the Agreement to a third party; or (v) which becomes part of the public domain through no breach of the Agreement.

    2. Bank has implemented and shall maintain information security procedures designed to meet the requirements of the Guidelines Establishing Information Security Standards as adopted by the bank regulatory agencies who oversee Bank's operations. These security measures include appropriate disposal of consumer information as required, and taking appropriate actions to address incidents of unauthorized access to Client's sensitive information, including notification to Client as soon as possible of any such incident, which notice shall include appropriate details regarding such incident and a description of steps taken by Bank to remedy the incident and prevent its recurrence.

    3. In the event of any breach of the obligations under this Section, each party acknowledges that the other party would have no adequate remedy at law, since the harm caused by such a breach would not be easily measured and compensated for in damages, and that in addition to such other remedies as may be available to such party, it may obtain injunctive relief including, but not limited to, specific performance.

  11. Disclaimer of Warranty

    Any Service, Software, Equipment and communication interfaces provided or licensed to Client are provided on an "as is" basis. Other than the express warranties contained herein or in the applicable Service Terms & Conditions, BANK MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AND DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES AS TO THE MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR SUITABILITY OF ANY TREASURY MANAGEMENT SERVICE FOR CLIENT, OR AS TO THE COMPATIBILITY OF SOFTWARE, EQUIPMENT OR COMMUNICATION INTERFACES WITH CLIENT'S EQUIPMENT.

  12. Performance and Bank Liability

    1. Bank will provide the Treasury Management Services in good faith in a commercially reasonable manner in accordance with the applicable Service Terms & Conditions. Bank will be responsible for any loss sustained by Client only to the extent such loss is caused by Bank's breach of its representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Agreement and any Service Terms & Conditions or by its breach of good faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct and in every case the liability of Bank will not exceed the lesser of the actual damages sustained by Client or the fees Bank received for providing the Treasury Management Service to Client for the twelve (12) months preceding the loss (or such number of months as Bank is able to recover damages under any applicable Service Provider agreement).

    2. For Wire Transfer requests that are subject to Article 4A of the Uniform Commercial Code, Bank is liable only for damages required to be paid under Article 4A or the Fedwire Regulations, as applicable, except as otherwise agreed in the Wire Transfer Service Terms & Conditions, provided that Client has otherwise complied with any duties imposed on Client under this Master Agreement, the Wire Transfer Service Terms & Conditions or the applicable Set-up Schedules. For all requests and Entries not subject to Article 4A, and for all other obligations under a Service, Bank's liability shall not exceed the following, as applicable: (i) in case of an excessive debit to Client's Account, the amount of the excess plus compensation equivalent to interest from the date of the excessive Debit to the date of the refund; (ii) in case of payment to an account not specified by Client, the amount of the payment plus compensation equivalent to interest from the date of the payment to the date of the refund; (iii) in case of any delay in crediting a Debit Entry to Client's Account, the amount of compensation equivalent to interest for the period of delay; or (iv) in all other cases, the damages specified in the paragraph a) above. If Bank fails to credit an Account utilized in connection with any Service in accordance with the Service Terms & Conditions applicable thereto, as of the date such Credit was earned, upon discovery or notification of such error, Bank will properly credit such Account, but Bank shall not incur any liability therefore except as otherwise provided herein or in the Service Terms & Conditions. Client must use reasonable efforts to assist Bank in recovering the amount of any overpayment for which Bank is liable. If Bank is obligated to pay interest compensation, Bank's liability for loss of interest resulting from its error or delay shall be calculated by using a rate equal to the average Federal Funds rate at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago for the period involved. At Bank's option, payment of such interest may be made by crediting the Account.

    3. If Client transmits a request to Bank by way of a funds-transfer system or other third-party communications system not specifically required by Bank, the system is deemed to be Client's agent for that purpose. Bank is not liable to Client for any discrepancy between the terms Client transmits to such system and the terms it then transmits to Bank.

    4. IN NO EVENT WILL BANK HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL (INCLUDING LOST PROFITS), SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT, AND WHETHER OR NOT THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES WAS DISCLOSED TO OR COULD HAVE BEEN REASONABLY FORESEEN BY BANK.

    5. Bank does not and cannot control the flow of data to or from Bank's network and other portions of the Internet. Such flow depends in large part on the performance of Internet services provided or controlled by third parties. Actions or inactions of such third parties can impair or disrupt Client's connections to the Internet (or portions thereof). Bank cannot guarantee that such events will not occur. Accordingly, Bank disclaims any and all liability resulting from or related to such events and in no event shall Bank be liable for any damages (whether in contract or in tort) that are attributable to the public Internet infrastructure, Client's ability to connect to the Internet, or Bank's ability to connect to the Internet on Client's behalf.

    6. Under no circumstances will Bank be responsible for any liability, loss or damages resulting from any delay in performance of or failure to perform in connection with any Treasury Management Service which is caused by interruption of telephone, telefacsimile or communication facilities, delay in transportation, equipment breakdown or mechanical malfunction, electrical, power or computer failure, accidents, fire, flood, explosion, theft, natural disaster or other catastrophe, acts or failure to act by Client or any third-party, strikes or lockouts, emergency conditions, riots, war, events of terrorism, acts of government or other circumstances which are unavoidable or beyond Bank's control. Bank will not be liable for failure to perform any of Bank's obligations in connection with a Treasury Management Service if such performance would result in it being in breach of a law, regulation or requirement of any governmental authority.

  13. Indemnification

  14. Except in the event of Bank's failure to act in good faith, or its gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with delivery of Treasury Management Services, Client shall defend, indemnify and hold Bank and its directors, officers, employees, Service Providers, successors and assigns harmless against and in respect to any and all loss, liability, expense and damage, directly or indirectly resulting from: (a) the processing of any request received by Bank through a Treasury Management Service; (b) any breach of the provisions of this Master Agreement or the applicable Service Terms & Conditions; (c) any request for stop payment; (d) any dispute between Client and a third party in connection with the use of a Treasury Management Service; and (e) any and all actions, causes of action, suits, proceedings, claims, demands, judgments, costs and expenses (including attorney's fees) incident to the foregoing.

  15. Service Providers

    Bank may act on any communication and provide any Treasury Management Service using any payment system or third-party provider Bank reasonably selects. Bank's performance of Treasury Management Services is subject to the rules and regulations of any such system or organization. Bank will have no obligation to disclose arrangements with third parties to Client or obtain Client's consent thereto. Client authorizes the transfer of information relating to Client to Service Providers for use in connection with Treasury Management Services or as required by law. Bank will provide Client with all necessary instructions for contact with a Service Provider, if necessary.

  16. Equipment and Software

    1. When a Treasury Management Service requires Equipment or Software to be operated by Client, the provision of the Treasury Management Service by Bank will be conditioned on the proper installation, configuration, use and maintenance of such Equipment or Software by Client. Client is solely responsible for the selection, purchase or lease and maintenance of Client's computer equipment and software and its compatibility for use where required in connection with any Treasury Management Service. Bank- provided Equipment will remain the property of Bank, and: (a) Client will use it solely in the manner specified by Bank in connection with the relevant Treasury Management Service; (b) Client will not remove or modify any name or identifying mark on it; and (c) Client shall return it to Bank upon termination of the Treasury Management Service. Client shall not reverse assemble or reverse compile any of the Software, in whole or in part, nor permit any other person, firm or corporation to do so.

    2. Client is responsible for installing and implementing any changes and upgrades to the Equipment and Software as required by Bank within five (5) Business Days to ensure compliance with regulatory changes or developments and to protect the integrity and security of the Service.

  17. Advertising

    Neither Client nor Bank will display any name, trademark or service mark of the other without the prior written consent of the other. Client will not advertise or promote any Treasury Management Service without Bank's prior written consent for each use or release.

  18. Recordings and Records

    Either Client or Bank may produce telephonic or electronic recordings or computer records, including email and telefacsimile transmissions, as evidence in any proceedings brought in connection with any Treasury Management Service. Client agrees to Bank's telephonic or electronic monitoring, recording and retention of records for the purposes of security, evidence of the transaction and/or quality of service. All records maintained by Bank for Treasury Management Services contemplated by the Agreement will be and remain Bank's property. Bank may, at Bank's discretion, make available to Client such records upon request. Any expense incurred by Bank in making such records available to Client will be paid by Client.

  19. Accounts

    All Accounts accessed through a Treasury Management Services remain subject to the Account Agreement and availability schedules in effect from time to time, provided that in the event of any conflict between the Treasury Management Services Agreement and the Account Agreement, the Treasury Management Services Agreement will prevail. Each funds transfer under a Treasury Management Service is subject to any transfer limitations that apply to the Account.

  20. Payment of Fees and Charges

    Client will pay Bank for each Treasury Management Service in accordance with the Fee Schedule established by Bank, which may be changed by Bank from time to time. The Fee Schedule for each Treasury Management Service will be deemed accepted by Client upon provision of such Treasury Management Service to Client. Client will pay any sales, use or similar tax applicable to any Treasury Management Service. If Bank is required to pay any such taxes, Client will reimburse Bank upon demand. Client will also pay all attorneys' fees and other costs and expenses Bank may incur in collecting any fees or other sums Client may owe to Bank in connection with any Treasury Management Service. Bank may collect any amounts due to Bank by debiting any of Client's Accounts with Bank, billing Client, and or setting off against any amounts Bank owes to Client, without any obligation to give prior notice thereof to Client.

  21. Extensions of Credit

    Client must maintain sufficient amounts of Available Funds in Client's Accounts at Bank in connection with particular Treasury Management Services to cover Client's payment obligations. Bank is not obligated to extend credit to Client unless it has specifically agreed to do so in a separate writing. If Bank extends credit to Client by permitting overdrafts or use of uncollected funds in Client's Accounts or otherwise, the amount thereof will be immediately due and payable, together with interest thereon at a per annum rate determined by Bank from time to time, but not to exceed the maximum rate permitted by law. If Bank should perform on Client's behalf any Treasury Management Services that create an overdraft or use of uncollected funds, such action will not establish a course of dealing between the parties that will require Bank to perform any Treasury Management Services on behalf of Client that would create an overdraft or use of uncollected funds. Bank may, without notice, refuse to honor any order for payment, transfer or withdrawal of funds if such order would create an overdraft or use of uncollected funds, notwithstanding that Bank may have previously allowed overdrafts or use of uncollected funds. Client agrees that Bank may debit any Account owned by Client or that Bank may set off against any amount Bank owes Client, in order to obtain payment for Client's overdrafts.

  22. Grant of Security Interest

    As security for the full and timely payment and performance of all of Client's obligations under this Master Agreement and any Service Terms & Conditions, Client hereby grants to Bank a security interest in, and a lien upon, the Accounts and any other Client accounts at Bank. The failure of Client to satisfy any of Client's obligations to Bank will constitute a default. Upon the occurrence of a default, and at any time thereafter, Bank may use and apply any and all funds in the Accounts and any other account at Bank and exercise any and all other rights and remedies available to Bank by law, in equity or by agreement.

  23. Account Reconciliation

    Client's transactions will be reflected on Client's Periodic Statement. Client will regularly and promptly review and verify all Periodic Statements, reports, Check payment records, Wire Transfer instructions, confirmations, adjustments, charges, and other transactions. Client will, within a reasonable time, which in no event shall be greater than fourteen (14) Business Days following the day Bank first mails or otherwise makes data available to Client, notify Bank of any error or discrepancy between Client's records and any Bank notice or statement, or any transaction or transfer Client believes was not authorized. Client will provide Bank with any information it may reasonably request in connection therewith. If Client fails to notify Bank of such unauthorized transaction within the fourteen

    (14) Business Day review period, the failure to report any such errors or unauthorized transactions shall relieve Bank of any liability for the unreported erroneous or unauthorized transaction. In accordance with NACHA Rules, Client must report an unauthorized ACH Debit Entry to the Account by the established deadline on the Business Day following the settlement date of the unauthorized Entry. Otherwise, Client's sole recourse is to the originator of the transaction.

  24. Provisional Credit

    For a non-consumer Credit Entry subject to UCC Article 4A (such as a converted check or wire transfer), Client understands: (a) the Credit Entry may be transmitted through the ACH system; (b) the rights and obligations of the Originator concerning the Entry are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, unless the Originator and the ODFI have agreed that the laws of another jurisdiction govern their rights and obligations; (c) credit given by Bank to Client for the Entry is provisional until Bank has received final settlement through a Federal Reserve Bank or otherwise has received payment as provided for in Section 4A-403(a) of UCC Article 4A; and (d) if Bank does not receive such payment for the Entry, Bank is entitled to a refund from Client in the amount of the credit to the Account, and the Originator will not be considered to have paid the amount of the Credit Entry to Client.

  25. Check Samples, Forms Approval and Service Implementation

    Prior to initiating a new Account or Service, or at any other necessary time, Client agrees to provide all information including, without limitation, signature cards, transmissions, corporate resolutions and other documents, and conduct any test that Bank may reasonably request. Bank may request samples of Client's Checks, drafts, deposit slips and similar items to ensure, in Bank's sole discretion, whether such items meet Bank's quality control and processing standards. In the event that Bank determines that an item or test does not meet its specifications, Bank will so advise Client. Client acknowledges that Treasury Management Services will not commence or continue until such time as an approved item or test is provided to Bank and determined by Bank to be satisfactory. Client shall be responsible for initial product installation, whether or not Bank provides telephone or on-site installation support.

  26. Transactions on Non-Business Days/Cut-off Times

    Transactions, deposits, payment orders, entries or other requests by Client received by Bank on a non-Business Day or after established Cut-off Times may be treated by Bank as received on the next Business Day. Bank may change any Cut-off Time or other deadline at any time. Bank will make a reasonable effort to notify Client of any changes in advance.

  27. Inconsistent Name and Account Number

    Unless otherwise provided in any Service Terms & Conditions or as otherwise required by law, if Client or third party acting at the Client's instruction initiates a fund transfer instruction or payment order to Bank that describes the person to receive the proceeds of such payment order (the "beneficiary"), the beneficiary's bank, or an intermediary bank by name and an Account or other identifying number, Bank and subsequent parties to the Payment Order may rely on and act solely on the basis of such number, even though the name and number do not agree and even though Bank and subsequent parties know or have reason to know of the inconsistency. Client's obligation to pay the amount of the payment order to Bank is not excused in such circumstances.

  28. Data Retention and Disclosure

    Client acknowledges that Bank may have certain legal record keeping and reporting requirements with respect to Treasury Management Services and consents to Bank's disclosure to governmental authorities of information concerning Client and Treasury Management Services provided to Client, which Bank believes to be appropriate or necessary to fulfill such legal requirements.

  29. Audit

    During the term of the Master Agreement and for a period of two (2) years thereafter, Bank, and any third party representatives designated by Bank, including bank regulatory agencies, independent auditors and forensics experts, shall have the right, upon reasonable prior notice to Client (except in the event of fraud, unauthorized access to Accounts or any other circumstance where delay could result in loss to Client, in which case this right shall be immediate), to audit Client's books, records, systems, computers and procedures to the extent necessary to verify Client's compliance with the terms of this Master Agreement and/or any applicable Service Terms & Conditions, including compliance with applicable law and, as applicable, NACHA Rules, which may include, in Bank's sole discretion, the right to enter onto the premises of Client for such purpose.

  30. Remote

    From time to time, Bank personnel will use Software to create a remote access online session with Client's Users for the purpose of troubleshooting problems, training on products or for related purposes.

  31. Termination

    Either party, upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the other, may terminate any Treasury Management Service or the Agreement, which will terminate all Treasury Management Services. Bank reserves the right to terminate or suspend any Treasury Management Service or terminate the Agreement immediately, without notice to Client, if any of the following occurs: (a) a material adverse change, in Bank's reasonable judgment, occurs in Client's business or financial condition; (b) Bank has reason to believe that Client has engaged in suspicious, fraudulent or illegal activity; (c) Client fails to maintain balances in Accounts sufficient to cover overdrafts or proper funding for any banking activities; (d) Client violates the terms of the Agreement or any financing arrangement with Bank; (e) Client fails to provide financial information reasonably requested by Bank; (f) Bank determines it is impractical or illegal to provide any Treasury Management Service because of changes in laws, regulations or rules; or (g) Bank, in good faith, is unable to satisfy itself that Treasury Management Services have been properly authorized by Client. Notwithstanding any termination, the terms of the Agreement will apply to (i) all transactions which have been initiated prior to termination and (ii) Client's payment obligations with respect to such transactions.

  32. Representations and Warranties

    1. Client agrees to provide Bank with copies of Client's organizational documents. If Client is a corporation, limited liability company, or other entity, Client represents and warrants to Bank that the electronic or written authentication of this Agreement has been duly authorized by resolutions heretofore adopted by Client's Board of Directors and/or by action of Client's shareholders, members or owners in accordance with law and Client's by-laws or operating agreement, that said resolutions have not been amended nor rescinded, are in full force and effect, and that the Authorized Signer(s) are duly authorized so to act.

Part II: BUSINESS ONLINE AND MOBILE BANKING SERVICES

  1. Scope of the Services

    Business Online Banking will provide Client's Users with access via Client's personal computer or other device with Internet connectivity to those Services Client has selected. Client may also enroll in Business Mobile Banking and perform similar functions with a Mobile Device, as provided in Section 7 below; and may enroll in Mobile Deposit as provided in Section 8 below. Any loan or line of credit that Client accesses by Business Online Banking or Mobile Banking will remain subject to the loan documents between Client and Bank. Except as otherwise provided herein, any request for Business Online Banking that Bank receives prior to Bank's End of Day on any Business Day will be processed on the Business Day of receipt. Except as otherwise provided herein and on Bank's website, any request Bank receives after Bank's End of Day on any Business Day will be processed on the next Business Day.

  2. Equipment and Software

    1. In order to utilize Business Online Banking, Client must have the appropriate Equipment meeting the system requirements and other criteria established by Bank (as detailed in Bank's Resource Center on its website) and Internet access. Client understands and agrees that it is Client's sole responsibility to obtain, install, operate and maintain its Equipment in accordance with the instructions of the equipment manufacturer. Client assumes sole responsibility for any and all loss, damage or injury arising with respect to any failure of its equipment.

    2. The Business Online Banking program materials are confidential and proprietary and Client may not modify, duplicate or make the materials available to any third party by any arrangement without Bank's prior written consent. Client may use the materials exclusively for the purpose of accessing Business Online Banking.

  3. Business Online Banking Functions

    The functions available through Business Online Banking at the time of these Service Terms & Conditions are described below and are more fully described in the online "Help" screens

    1. Balance Reporting. Those Users to whom Client permits access to these functions may request and receive all Account information about one or more of the specified Accounts. This includes: the Account balance information, the status and description of any or all Items, Debits or Credits or charges related to the Account, the Account history and all other information about activity associated with the Account. Client's Users are able to import or export data to or from Business Online Banking. The balance of the Accounts linked to the Online or Mobile Services may change at any time as Bank processes items and fees against them, and the information provided to Client through a Service may become quickly outdated. Financial information obtained through Business Online Banking (including, without limitation, any text message alerts sent to a Mobile Device) reflects the most recent Account information available through the Service and may not be accurate or current. Client agrees that neither Bank nor Bank's Service Provider will be liable for any errors or delays in the content, or for any actions taken in reliance thereon.

    2. Stop Payments. The "Stop Payment Order" feature allows Client's User to use Business Online Banking to request that Bank stop payment of any Item payable for an Account to which that User has access.

      1. The User whom Client specifies is allowed to transmit Stop Payments through Business Online Banking has full authority to do so without a written signature on file at Bank.

      2. A Stop Payment placed by Client using Stop Payment shall be considered to be "in writing" for all legal purposes. Client will not receive written confirmation of an order placed using Stop Payment online. When Client uses Business Online Banking to request a Stop Payment order, Client's order will remain valid for the period specified in the original Stop Payment request. Client acknowledges that (A) Bank will not, and will not be required to, notify Client of the expiration of any order; (B) it is Client's sole responsibility to keep track of the expiration dates of, and/or renew, all such orders; and (C) Stop Payment orders are subject to the rules of the Uniform Commercial Code. If Client wishes to extend Client's Stop Payment order beyond the expiration of Client's initial request, Client must contact Bank and follow Bank's procedures for renewing Stop Payment orders.

      3. Client will incur a fee in the amount specified on Bank's Fee Schedule for each Stop Payment request transmitted through Business Online Banking.

    3. Funds Transfer. The "Funds Transfer" feature allows Client's Users to use Business Online Banking to request transfers between those Accounts to which the User has access provided that the User has access to both Accounts. Funds Transfers will be processed on the same Business Day until End of Day.

    4. Commercial Loan. The "Commercial Loan" function enables Client's User to request that Bank deduct funds from a deposit Account and apply those funds as a payment to reduce the principal and/or interest amount outstanding under a loan Account. Client's User may also request that Bank advance funds from the Line of Credit for transfer to another deposit Account increasing the principal and/or interest amount outstanding under a loan Account. Those Users to whom Client permits access may request and receive all Account information about one or more of the specified loan Accounts. This includes balance and interest information, along with historical activity.

  4. Security Procedures

    Bank uses multi-level and multi-factor authentication in connection with Business Online Banking to help prevent unauthorized access to Accounts. Notwithstanding any other provision of these Service Terms, to the extent Client effects transactions via Business Online Banking without using these Security Procedures, Client will be precluded from asserting any claims against Bank for paying unauthorized, altered, counterfeit or other fraudulent items that such Security Procedure was designed to detect or deter, and Bank will not be required to re-credit Client's Account or otherwise have any liability for paying such items.

    1. Identification. A unique User identification code and password will be established for each User. Client must develop adequate internal procedures to prevent the disclosure of the codes and passwords to other persons and the unauthorized use of Business Online Banking. Bank will have no knowledge of the passwords established for each User and will have no responsibility for ensuring compliance with the procedures Client develops for protecting the confidentiality of such identifications.

    2. Secure Access Codes. Out-of-Band email and phone number access codes are used with certain Internet and Mobile Services.

    3. Secure Socket Layer (SSL). Until notified otherwise by Bank, Client will use software that supports the SSL protocol, or other protocols accepted by Bank, and will follow Bank's log-on procedures that support such protocols. Client acknowledges that Bank is not responsible for: (i) notifying Client of any upgrades, fixes or enhancements to any such software; or (ii) any compromise of data transmitted across computer networks or telecommunications facilities, including, but not limited to, the Internet. With the exception of applications commonly known as web browser software, or other applications formally approved by Bank in writing, Client agrees not to: use any software, program, application or any other device to access or log on to Bank's computer systems, website or proprietary software; or automate the process of obtaining, downloading, transferring or transmitting any information to or from Bank's computer systems, website or proprietary Software.

    4. Security Tokens. Bank also requires use of a one-time access code generated by Client's Security Tokens for Clients with the ability to originate external transactions. The generated code can only be used once to provide a Business Online Banking authentication. A different code will be generated by the Security Token each time it is used. Bank will have no responsibility for ensuring compliance with the procedures Client develops for protecting the security of the Security Tokens.

      1. Client is responsible for tracking Security Tokens issued to Users. In particular, Client must confirm that the Security Tokens issued in tangible form are kept safe and secure, in Client's possession and or the possession of Client's Users at all times and that Users do not share Security Tokens or permit them to be copied, reverse engineered or otherwise tampered with. Further, Client and Client's Users must not use the Security Tokens for other than for the purpose of identifying themselves to Bank in relation to Business Online Banking, and Client may not transmit or otherwise send the Security Tokens to any other unauthorized party.

      2. If Client suspects any impropriety on the part of any User in connection with use of a Security Token or if a User with a tangible Security Token is leaving Client's employment, Client must take immediate steps to ensure that the User is prevented from further access to Business Online Banking, including recovery, returning any tangible Security Token to Bank, or reassignment of the Security Token issued to the relevant User in such manner as designated by Bank.

      3. Bank will not be liable to Client or to third parties for any loss whatsoever arising from unauthorized use of Security Tokens.

      4. Bank grants Client and Client's Users non-exclusive, non-transferable rights to the Security Tokens. Title to and rights in the Security Tokens reside in Bank and, except for specific rights granted to Client by license, neither Client nor any of Client's Users will acquire any rights whatsoever in the Security Tokens. Bank will make all reasonable efforts to ensure that the Security Tokens will perform as necessary to permit Client's access to Business Online Banking. BANK DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER STATUTORY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR PARTICULAR PURPOSE, MERCHANTABILITY, DESIGN, QUALITY, PERFORMANCE, CONTINUOUS USE OR ERROR- FREE OPERATION. Client must notify Bank immediately if any Security Token fails to function and is responsible for the cost of replacing lost or damaged devices.

    5. Dedicated Device. It is highly recommended that Client use a Dedicated Device to secure Business Online Banking activities in order to limit the possibility of viruses, malware or other software to be inadvertently downloaded to the device that could result in unauthorized access to the Client's account. For this purpose, a "Dedicated Device" is a single computer or other device for online banking activity that is never used for reading email or browsing anywhere else on the web that:

      • Has an Internet browser that is restricted to the Business Online Banking site;

      • Has a firewall that is configured to restrict sharing and restricts the device to the Business Online Banking site;

      • Disables the use of media components such as USBs and CDs to prevent transmission into or from the device;

      • Prevents the computer/User from running any other business applications other than the browser for Business Online Banking;

      • Includes a process to prevent the device from being used to browse the Internet other than for accessing the Services; and

      • Prohibits wireless connectivity.

  5. Bank's Responsibilities and Limitation of Liability

    Bank will use Bank's best efforts to provide Client with access to Business Online Banking in accordance with the provisions of these Service Terms & Conditions. However, in addition to the limits of liability in the Master Agreement, Bank will not be liable to Client for any damages whatsoever arising in connection with a failure of the communications network, the Equipment or the Services, or in connection with events beyond Bank's control. Because Business Online Banking utilizes information contained in Bank's databases that may not necessarily reflect all current transactions, Bank will not be liable to Client for any damages whatsoever arising in connection with the accuracy or completeness of information supplied through Business Online Banking regarding Client's Accounts.

  6. Rejection of Business Online Banking Requests

    Bank will have the right, but not the obligation, to reject any request transmitted via Business Online Banking if the request was incomplete or inaccurate in any respect, or if the request involves a transfer of funds from an Account in which there are insufficient Available Funds to cover the request. Should Bank, at Bank's sole option, elect to honor a transfer request against insufficient funds, Client agree to pay Bank immediately upon demand any overdraft amounts, together with any and all overdraft fees and charges that may be assessed against Client's Account in accordance with the terms of Account Agreement.

  7. Business Mobile Banking

    Based on the permissions established in Business Online Banking, Client may use Mobile Banking in the same manner Client uses Business Online Banking, to: (a) view current balance information for Accounts linked to the Service; (b) review available transactions for Accounts; (c) transfer funds between Accounts on a one-time basis; (d) view Account alerts and notifications; (e) submit a Bill Payment to Payees previously set up via Business Online Banking; (f) pay eBills; and (g) view payment history.

POSITIVE PAY SERVICE TERMS & CONDITIONS

  1. Scope of Positive Pay Service

    Positive Pay is a Check fraud detection service Bank offers to Bank's business customers to reduce the likelihood of an unauthorized Check being paid from the Account. The Positive Pay web-based Software program accessed through Business Online Banking uses a systematic matching process to compare the information from Items in the Issue File to those that have been presented for payment. If the information in the Issue File does not match the information on the Item presented for payment, the Software issues an Exception Item. Client is responsible for reviewing Exception Items daily and instructing Bank to pay or return an Exception Item.

  2. Definitions

    Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms will have the meanings provided in the Master Agreement.

    "Check Information": The Account number, serial number, issue date, and exact dollar amount of each Item.

    "Issue File": A file that Client prepares and electronically transmits, which contains Check Information on Items issued against an Account for purposes of performing Positive Pay.

    "Transactions": Those procedures performed using Positive Pay such as, but not limited to, uploading or manual inputting of Items and processing Exception Items.

  3. Positive Pay Options

    Client may select the following (ACH Positive Pay is subject to the separate ACH Positive Pay Service Terms & Conditions provided above):

    • Traditional Positive Pay. Bank will check the MICR encoding and the dollar amount on the Checks against the Issue File.

    • Payee Verification. If this option is selected, Bank will check MICR information, dollar amount and payees against the Issue File.

    Bank also offers ARS Reporting as an optional module under the Positive Pay Service that will either send an encrypted email with an attachment or an unencrypted email notifying Client of the transaction information and prompting it to login to Business Online Banking/Positive Pay for details.

  4. Issued Items

    On each day in which Client issues Items, Client shall submit an Issue File to Bank, prior to the Positive Pay Cut-off Time. Data for each Check must include the Check Information. This information may be entered either manually or by importing a file into the Service. Client must place a Stop Payment with Bank for any issued Checks that they wish to be stopped. Stale dated Checks may be voided for return (has not been honored within 180 days).

  5. Exception Items

    On the Business Day following presentment of any Item to Bank, the Service will, by the Exception Cut-off Time, electronically compare the information for each Item to the Check Information contained in the Issue File and Bank will notify Client of any Exception Items by the notification method selected on the Set-up Schedule.

    1. If the Item serial number and amount match, such Item shall be deemed conclusively authorized by Client to be paid by Bank without further examination by Bank.

    2. Bank will deem a presented Item as an Exception Item if the following occurs:

      1. The amount does not match the amount of the Check as reflected in the Issue File;

      2. A presented Check serial number does not appear in the Issue File;

      3. The Issue File reports a Check as voided by Client;

      4. The payee does not match the list (when Payee Verification is requested).

      5. If the Item is communicated to Bank as fraudulent. (Additional action may be required in this instance.)

    3. If the Check Information for such Item does not match, Bank will review such Item for evidence of MICR misencoding or misreading. If Bank determines that there has been a MICR misencoding or misreading, Bank shall make the necessary corrections and such Item shall be deemed conclusively authorized by Client to be paid. If Client discovers the encoding error, Client should instruct Bank to Return the Item. Bank shall make the necessary correction and such Item shall be deemed conclusively authorized by Client to be paid.

    4. If there has been no MICR misencoding or misreading with respect to such Item, or if after such correction the Check Information for such Item still does not match the Check Information in the Issue File, Client is required to make a decision through the Service. A User must provide to Bank a "pay" or "return" decision on any Exception Item for that Business Day by the Decision Cut- off Time. Bank will return such Item to the depository bank unpaid if a "return" decision is provided by a User. Bank will pay such Item if a "pay" decision is provided by a User. If Bank does not receive any such instruction with respect to a "pay" or "return" decision, Bank will follow Client instructions as outlined on the Set-up Schedule.

    5. Nothing herein shall affect Bank's right to return any Item to the depository bank (i) if the Account on which such Item was drawn does not contain sufficient Available Funds to pay such Item or (ii) if Bank in its sole discretion determines that such Item is not properly payable.

  6. Bank's Responsibilities and Limitation of Liability

    Bank will use its best efforts to provide Client with access to Positive Pay in accordance with the provisions of these Service Terms & Conditions. Because Positive Pay utilizes information contained in Bank's databases that may not necessarily reflect all current transactions, Bank shall not be liable to Client for any damages whatsoever arising in connection with the accuracy or completeness of information supplied through Positive Pay regarding Client's Accounts.

If a Request (or a Request for cancellation or amendment of a Wire Transfer) received by Bank purports to have been transmitted or authorized by Client, it will be deemed effective as Client's Request and Client shall be obligated to pay Bank the amount of such Wire Transfer even though the Request was not authorized by Client, provided Bank accepted the Request in good faith and acted in compliance with the Security Procedures with respect to such Request. If signature comparison is to be used as part of those Security Procedures, Bank shall be deemed to have complied with that part of such procedures if it compares the signature accompanying a Request (or Request for cancellation or amendment of a Wire Transfer) received with the signature of an User and, on the basis of such comparison, believes the signature of Client sending such file to be that of the User.

    2. If a Request (or Request for cancellation or amendment of a Wire Transfer) received by Bank was transmitted by Client or a designated User, Client shall pay Bank the amount of the Wire Transfer, whether or not Bank complied with the Security Procedures with respect to that Request and whether or not that Request was erroneous in any respect or that error would have been detected if Bank had complied with such procedures.

  6. Client Responsibilities

    Client shall not initiate any Wire Transfer that would violate the economic sanctions administered by the OFAC. Client must maintain and designate an Account(s) with Bank, which Bank may, without prior notice or demand, use for debiting or crediting with respect to all Requests and related adjustment and charges in connection with the Wire Transfer Service. Client must have collected and Available Funds on deposit in the Account(s) sufficient to cover Client's payment obligations for the Service. Client shall pay Bank on the date on which Bank acts on the amount of each transfer of funds pursuant to a Request. For purposes of satisfying Client's obligation to pay such amount and any other payment obligation, Bank may, but is not required to, consider any overdraft line of credit or other arrangement Client may have with Bank. If a conflict occurs regarding the applicable Account balance, Bank's records (including information on accounts at other banks, which are debited under a Service) will be controlling for the processing of any Request.

  7. Bank Responsibilities

    1. Acceptance and Execution of Request. Bank will act upon a Request after receipt of such Request by making applicable accounting entries or by transmitting payment instructions to the applicable bank or other party, (i) no later than the stated payment date (if such date is a Business Day and is not earlier than the day such Request is received), or (ii) on the day such Request is received if no payment date is stated, if such Request is received prior to Bank's applicable Wire Transfer deadline on a Business Day. In order to be processed on a same-day basis, Bank must receive Wire Transfer Requests on a Business Day no later than the deadline times posted by Bank from time to time. Any Request received after that time will be processed on the next Business Day. Procedures for Wire Transfers that are initiated by telephone or facsimile are included in Wire Transfer Schedule.

      1. Bank's acting upon a Request will also be subject to the Business Day schedule of any bank or other party holding an account to be debited or credited under the Service. Client's Request is considered accepted by Bank when Bank executes it.

      2. In cases where one or multiple Wire Transfer Requests result in an order against uncollected funds, Bank may, in its sole discretion, process Wire Transfers in any order subject to the availability of funds within an Account. Bank will contact Client when transfer Requests exceed an Account's Available Funds balance.

    2. Rejection of Request; Notices and Instructions. Bank may reject any Request which exceeds the collected and Available Funds on deposit in the Account or may make an offsetting reversal if a Debit is made before Bank ascertains there are not sufficient collected and Available Funds on deposit in such Account. Additional terms and conditions contained in the deposit Account Agreement governing Client's Accounts may apply.

      1. Bank may reject a Request which does not conform in form and substance with the requirements of the Master Agreement, these Service Terms & Conditions, or any applicable Schedule.

      2. Bank may reject a Request, the authenticity of which Bank has been unable to verify through the use of the Security Procedures.

  8. International Wire Transfers

    1. Currency Conversion. The Service may permit Client to initiate payments in currencies other than U.S. dollars. The conversion rate will be the spot rate offered by Bank at the time the Request is executed. Client fully assumes the risk that rates may change after a Request is initiated. The rate offered by Bank to Client may not be the same rate that is available to Bank in the interbank or other market, and Bank or its Service Providers may retain any spread between the rates obtained by them and the rates offered to Client. If the Wire Transfer is returned for any reason, Client agrees that, at Bank's sole discretion, the refund may be in either United States Dollars based on Bank's then-current buying rate or the foreign currency in which the Wire Transfer Request was originally made. In no case shall Bank be liable to Client if payment is not made to the beneficiary in the currency requested by Client.

    2. Country Risks. From time to time, Bank experiences various difficulties in transferring funds to certain countries. Those difficulties include (but not by way of limitation): (a) excessive delay in applying funds; (b) incorrect application of funds; (c) disappearance of funds; (d) excessively slow response to inquiries; or (e) government restriction on the transfer of such funds. In addition, countries and their subdivisions where the recipient is wired funds charge transfer taxes and other transfer fees that reduce the amount received. Client hereby acknowledges and assumes any expense in connection with such transfers which may be incurred by Bank in addition to normal and customary charges. Client is obligated to comply with all laws relating to the transfer of funds for foreign countries, individuals, or agencies. Noncompliance may result in the delay of Wire Transfer Requests, fines equivalent to a percentage of the principal or confiscation of the entire principal amount of the transfer if an attempt is made to transfer funds to a sanctioned individual, agency and/or country.
