MARKETING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT

Exhibit 10(i)

This Marketing and Servicing Agreement (this “Agreement”) is dated as of March 21, 2001 between First Community Bank of Washington, a bank organized under the laws of the State of Washington and a FDIC insured institution (the “Bank”), and Advance America Servicing of Arkansas, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Advance America”).

WHEREAS, the Bank is a bank organized under the laws of the State of Washington with its principal location in Lacey, Washington, and insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”), and as such, is authorized to extend credit to borrowers, subject to the federal and Washington financial institution and credit regulations in effect and as applicable;

WHEREAS, Advance America is a duly authorized and validly existing Delaware Corporation, authorized to do business in Arkansas;

WHEREAS, in accordance with its established lending criteria as may be amended from time to time, the Bank desires to make short-term small loans (“Loans”) to consumers (“Borrowers”); and

WHEREAS, Advance America desires to market and service the Loans, while retaining authority and control over, and responsibility for, its own employees and methods of operation;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual promises contained in this Agreement, and other valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the Bank and Advance America (together, the “Parties”) agree as follows:

1. Bank’s Making and Ownership of Loans

(a) The Bank in its sole discretion shall determine all of the conditions, terms and features of the Loans, including, without limitation, loan amounts, fees and charges, interest rates, credit limits, credit standards and all other terms and conditions of the Loans. The Bank shall make Loans to all Applicants (as that term is defined in Section 2(a) below) who meet such credit standards. Neither the Bank, nor Advance America, nor their respective employees shall suggest to Applicants that Loans are made or approved by Advance America or that Advance America (or any employee of Advance America) can improve an Applicant’s prospect of obtaining a Loan.

(b) Advance America shall not in any way fund, or purchase any share or “participation interest” in, any Loan.

(c) The Bank may sell any portion of any Loan to a third party or parties. Any sale by the Bank of any such Loan shall comply with applicable federal law.

2. Advance America’s Services

(a) General Duties of Advance America; Standards of Performance: Advance America shall perform all services required to market and service the Loans, including without limitation the establishment of retail stores where Loan applicants (“Applicants”) may submit Loan applications (“Applications”) and receive disclosures required by applicable law and where Borrowers may execute and deliver Loan documentation and repay Loans. In performing its services hereunder, Advance America shall at all times and in all material respects comply with applicable law. Further, Advance America shall use the documentation and follow the reasonable and lawful practices, policies and procedures established by the Bank and communicated in writing to Advance America from time to time (the “Bank Policies”).

(b) Marketing of Loans:

(i) The Bank hereby authorizes Advance America to market and service Loans and to use the name, and any trade name and logo, of the Bank in connection with such marketing and servicing. Advance America may use letters, print advertisements, the Internet and television and radio commercials for such purposes. All advertising and promotions for the Loans shall appropriately identify the Bank as the lender. Advance America shall submit all advertising materials to the Bank for the Bank’s prior approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(ii) Advance America shall maintain and operate stores for the purpose of marketing and servicing the Loans.

(iii) In connection with Advance America’s performance of its obligations under this Agreement, it is expressly agreed that (A) the Bank shall not hold any ownership or leasehold interest in any Advance America store or any personal property located therein, except for Repayment Checks, Notes (as those terms are defined in Section 2(c) below), and cash reflecting Loan repayments as may be located at such stores from time to time, (B) no Bank employees shall work in any Advance America store, except as provided in Section 2(f), and (C) the Bank shall exercise no authority or control over Advance America’s employees or methods of operation, except as set forth in this Agreement.

(i) Advance America employees shall take Applications from Applicants, using an Application form approved by the Bank. Advance America shall not discourage any prospective Applicant from submitting an Application, and shall provide reasonable assistance to each prospective Applicant in completing an Application. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Advance America shall not discriminate against any Applicant in the credit application process on any “prohibited basis,” as such term is defined in

the federal Equal Credit Opportunity Act (“ECOA”) and Regulation B. Advance America shall forward all completed Applications to the Bank (or its designated loan processing agent) electronically, by telephone, or by other appropriate means agreeable to both Parties.

(ii) Based upon the information provided by Applicants to the Bank through Advance America and such other credit-related information as obtained by Advance America at the direction of the Bank, and pursuant to the credit granting standards adopted by the Bank, the Bank shall be solely responsible for determining whether to extend credit to Applicants. The Bank shall, either itself or through its designated loan processing agent, communicate to Advance America its credit decision on any Application, together with the reason for any negative credit decision, electronically, by telephone or by other means acceptable to both Parties. Advance America shall provide an appropriately completed adverse action notice to any Applicant whose Application is rejected by the Bank.

(iii) The Bank’s Loans hereunder shall be evidenced by an agreement comprised of a Consumer Loan Agreement and Federal Truth in Lending Disclosures (“Note”). The Note shall include an Arbitration Agreement. The Note shall be electronically signed by the officer of the Bank in the Bank’s name.

(iv) For each Loan to a Borrower, Advance America shall: (A) have the Borrower sign the Note; (B) deliver a copy of the Note to the Borrower; (C) obtain from the Borrower the executed Note, and the Borrower’s signed, postdated personal check made payable to the Bank (the “Repayment Check”), which Repayment Check shall be for the Total of Payments set forth in the Agreement; and (D) upon receipt (and only upon receipt) of the signed Note and Repayment Check, deliver to the Borrower a check, electronically signed by an officer of the Bank in the Bank’s name for the Amount Financed set forth on the Note (the “Proceeds Check”). Pursuant to Washington state law and in accordance with the policy of the Bank, Advance America will not allow any Borrower to roll-over a Loan made pursuant to this Agreement.

(d) Monitoring, Inventorying and Auditing of Proceeds Checks: As part of its servicing of the Loans, Advance America shall monitor and inventory the Proceeds Checks, ensuring that all Proceeds Checks are issued as the result of Applications approved by the Bank and are given to Borrowers for Loans.

(e) Additional Servicing: Advance America shall perform all necessary servicing functions with respect to the Loans. Without limiting the foregoing:

(i) Advance America shall use its reasonable best efforts to collect payments on the Loans prior to, at and after maturity thereof. In collecting payments owed under the Notes, Advance America shall comply in all material respects with applicable law, including without limitation the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (the “FDCPA”) and applicable debt collection regulations and consumer protection laws applicable to Advance America in the State or States in which Advance America is marketing and servicing the loans, and the Best Practices

of the Community Financial Services Association of America. Advance America shall not encourage or allow its employees to threaten or imply that failure to honor any payment instrument in connection with any Loan shall subject the Borrower to potential criminal prosecution that Advance America does not reasonably believe will in fact result from such failure. The Bank has established a standard to monitor the effectiveness of the collection efforts of Advance America. Bank requires that loan losses to the Bank on the Loans shall be eight percent (8%) or less of the amount of the finance charge on the Loans, as the finance charge is disclosed in the federal Truth in Lending box contained in the Notes (“Loss Rate Standard”). Advance America agrees to meet the Loss Rate Standard in its collections. If Advance America’s collection efforts do not meet this Loss Rate Standard established by the Bank, the Fees (as that term is defined in Section 2(g) below) to be paid Advance America will be reduced by the dollar amount that the loan losses exceed the Loss Rate Standard. The Fees will be adjusted in accordance with this Section on a quarterly basis based on the calendar year to date loss experience.

(ii) On each day Advance America operates its stores for regular business, Advance America shall deposit in a Bank account designated by the Bank (the “Bank Deposit Account”) all cash receipts for that day and all Repayment Checks required to be deposited on that day. Advance America shall reconcile the Bank Deposit Account on a monthly basis.

(iii) Advance America shall maintain and retain all original Applications and copies of all Adverse Action Notices and other documents relating to rejected Applications for the period required by applicable law. Advance America shall maintain originals or copies, as applicable, of all Applications, Notes, Proceeds Checks, Repayment Checks and other documents provided to or received from Borrowers (all such documents referred to collectively as “Loan Documents”) for the period required by applicable law. Prior to repayment or charge-off a Loan, the Loan Documents shall be maintained by Advance America in a secure environment. Advance America will work with the Bank’s designated loan processing agent to ensure that Bank is provided timely information concerning the basis for each Adverse Action Notice relating to a rejected Application.

(f) Reports: Access to Stores, Books and Records and Employees: During the term of this Agreement, Advance America shall provide to the Bank data submissions and reports reasonably required by the Bank and its advisors in order to maintain effective internal controls and to monitor results under this Agreement, including without limitation the performance of the Loans and Advance America obligations hereunder. Such reports shall include a daily report showing Loans made, repaid and outstanding each day, as agreed upon by the Bank and Advance America. During the term of this Agreement and at all times thereafter, the Bank and banking agencies with regulatory authority over the Bank and its auditors shall have reasonable access to Advance America stores and to the books and records of Advance America and the officers, employees and accountants of Advance America for the same purposes.

(g) Fee and Costs; Number of Locations

(i) In consideration for Advance America’s performance of its obligations under this Agreement, the Bank shall pay Advance America the marketing and servicing fees set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Fees”). Advance America will be responsible for all costs associated with its stores and its services under this Agreement, including without limitation rental and occupancy costs; costs of up-fit and leasehold improvements; equipment costs; processing costs; printing costs; maintenance costs; staffing costs; taxes assessed to Advance America; signage costs; and advertising costs.

(ii) The Parties agree that Advance America may service and market the Loans for the Bank pursuant to this Agreement in twenty-five (25) locations in the State of Arkansas. Advance America agrees that it shall give thirty days’ written notice to the Bank if it intends to open any additional locations in Arkansas and will give the Bank the right of first refusal to offer the Loans in any such new location. If the Bank does not wish to offer Loans in any new location, Advance America may market and service Loans for another federally insured financial institution in that new location or do business in some other lawful manner.

(i) The Parties agree that, if both Parties are named as defendants in the same lawsuit, the Parties will enter into a Joint Defense Agreement reasonably accepted to the Parties.

5. Termination

(a) This Agreement shall terminate: (i) three (3) years after the date of this Agreement; (ii) upon six (6) months written notice of termination to the other Party; (iii) upon an Event of Default that is not cured after notice is given as provided in Section 5(b); (iv) upon a decrease in the fees and or interest that can be charged by the Bank on the Loans pursuant to a change in federal or state law or the interpretation thereof by a regulatory agency asserting jurisdiction as to that issue; or (v) upon the termination by the Bank’s designated loan processing agent of the Bank’s agreement with such agent to provide the services contemplated in his Agreement. In the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to (iv) above, the Parties agree to negotiate in good faith as to the terms of a new agreement.

(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) by either party, the other Party may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice at least thirty (30) days in advance of termination and an opportunity for the defaulting Party to cure the Event of Default, provided that: (i) the non-defaulting Party may suspend this Agreement during the period prior to any cure of the Event of Default; and (ii) the thirty (30) day written notice

requirement shall not apply if the Even of Default is the Bank’s failure to fund a Loan marketed by Advance America which meets the criteria established by the Bank for Loans. Either party may immediately terminate this Agreement if either Party is advised by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (or any successor to such agency), or by regulatory agency which has or asserts jurisdiction over either Party or the Loans, that its making of the Loans or the performance its obligations under this Agreement is or may be unlawful or an unsafe or unsound banking practice or that such activity may jeopardize the Bank’s standing with or any Bank rating from any agency.

(c) It shall constitute an Event of Default by the Bank hereunder if (a) the Bank shall be in material breach of any Representation, Warranty or covenant hereunder or if the Bank fails to make any payment due hereunder, (b) Advance America has not defaulted hereunder and the Bank nonetheless discontinues making Loans, (c) the Bank shall fail to fund a Loan marketed by Advance America which meets the criteria established by the Bank for Loans; or (d) the Bank shall file for protection under any state or federal liquidation provision, or where the FDIC or any other regulatory authority takes control of the Bank. It shall constitute an Even of Default by Advance America hereunder if (a) Advance America shall be in material breach of any Representation, Warranty, or covenant hereunder, (b) the Bank has not defaulted hereunder and Advance America nonetheless discontinues marketing and servicing the Loans, or (c) Advance America files for protection under any chapter of the federal Bankruptcy Code.

(d) Sections 4 through 8 hereof shall survive the termination of this Agreement. However, upon the Bank’s written request, Advance America shall continue to service outstanding Loans following termination of this Agreement until all Loans are repaid or charged off in accordance with the Bank’s standards practices and policies.

6. Notice

7. Confidentiality and Use of Customer Information; Non-Solicitation of Employees

(a) The Parties agree that the use of the information regarding all Borrowers and Applicants (“Customer Information”), including without limitation names, addresses, demographic information and financial information, is subject to, or may become subject to, federal and state privacy laws. The Parties agree that the use of such Customer Information shall be in compliance with all such applicable laws, and with any privacy policy adopted by the Bank to comply with such laws, and that the Parties will keep such Customer Information confidential in accordance with such laws and policy.

(b) The Bank agrees not to target the Borrowers for any solicitation of any product or service, and not to provide any Customer Information to any person or entity not a party to this Agreement, except to the extent required to do so under applicable law or judicial, administrative or regulatory process or except incident to its normal marketing efforts in the State of Washington, without the prior written consent of Advance America. The Bank shall use reasonable care to ensure that its agents do not violate this provision.

(c) The Bank and Advance America agree to treat in confidence the provisions of this Agreement and all documents, materials and other information related to this Agreement, which shall have been obtained during the course of the negotiations leading to, and, during the performance of, this Agreement (collectively, “Confidential Information”), and not to communicate Confidential Information to any third party, except that Confidential Information may be provided to a Party’s affiliates, as such term is defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, regulatory authorities, counsel, accountants, financial or tax advisors without the consent of the other Party, provided that such parties agree to hold such Confidential Information in confidence. As used herein, the term “Confidential Information” shall not include any information which (i) is or becomes available to a Party (the “Restricted Party”) from a source

other than the other Party, (ii) is or becomes available to the public other than as a result of disclosure by the Restricted Party or its agents, or (iii) is required to be disclosed under applicable law or judicial, administrative or regulatory process (but only to the extent it must be disclosed).

(d) The Parties agree that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation in the event of a breach by a Restricted Party of its obligation under this Section 7 and, therefore, the Parties agree that in the event of any such breach the Restricted Party, in addition to its other remedies at law or in equity, shall be entitled to an order requiring the Restricted Party to specifically perform its obligations under Section 7 or enjoining the Restricted Party from breaching Section 7, and the Restricted Party shall not plead in defense thereto that there would be an adequate remedy at law.

(e) Each Party agrees that it shall not directly or indirectly solicit, hire or otherwise retain or engage, whether as an employee, independent contractor or otherwise, any employee or other personnel of the other Party.

(b) This Agreement and the other Agreements supersede any negotiations, discussions or communications between the Bank and Advance America and constitute the entire agreement of the Bank and Advance America with respect to the Loans and the Loan Documents.

(c) Advance America shall on a timely basis provide the Bank with its monthly financial statements, and its annual audited financial statements. Bank shall on a timely basis provide Advance America with its quarterly financial statements, and its annual audited financial statements.

(d) Failure of any Party to insist, in one or more instances, on performance by any other Party in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of any right granted hereunder or of the future performance of any such term or condition or of any other term or condition of this Agreement unless and to the extent that such waiver is in a writing signed by or on behalf of the Party alleged to have granted such waiver.

(e) Any written notice or demand to be given under this Agreement shall be duly and properly given if delivered as described in Section 6 herein.

(g) Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by binding arbitration in a mutually convenient location in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitration shall be selected by agreement of the Parties or, if they cannot agree on an arbitrator within thirty (30) days after written notice of a Party’s desire to have a matter settled by arbitration, then the arbitrator shall be selected by the AAA. Any arbitrator hereunder must be either a lawyer who has practiced law for at least ten years or a retired judge. The arbitrator shall render his or her decision in writing in accordance with applicable substantive laws. The determination reached in such arbitration shall be final and binding on all Parties hereto without any right of appeal except as provided by the Federal Arbitration Act. Any court of competent jurisdiction may enforce any determination or award of the arbitrator. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, any such arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the rules of AAA.
