This MARKETING AND PROGRAM MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of February 25, 2016 (“Effective Date”), is made by and between WEBBANK, a Utah-chartered industrial bank having its principal location in Salt Lake City, Utah (“Bank”), and LENDINGCLUB CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, having its principal location in San Francisco, California (“Company”).
WHEREAS, Company has developed on online platform through which consumers and businesses can apply for credit from credit-issuing banks that originate and issue loans or lines of credit through the platform;
WHEREAS, Bank is in the business of originating various types of consumer and business loans, including loans and lines of credit;
WHEREAS, the Parties have developed a program pursuant to which, subject to Bank’s direction and oversight, Company markets and Bank originates installment loans and lines of credit for qualifying consumers and businesses identified by Company, pursuant to a Third Amended and Restated Loan Account Program Agreement dated as of March 10, 2015 (the “Existing Program Agreement”); and
WHEREAS, effective as of the Effective Date, the Parties desire to amend and restate the terms of their Existing Program Agreement on the terms and conditions set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the terms, conditions and mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Bank and Company mutually agree as follows:
1. | Definitions; Effectiveness. |
(a) | The terms used in this Agreement shall be defined as set forth in Schedule 1, and the rules of construction set forth in Schedule 1 shall apply to this Agreement. |
(b) | This Agreement shall be effective as of the Effective Date and, as of the Effective Date, shall supersede and replace the Existing Program Agreement. This Agreement shall apply to all Loans originated by Bank during the term of this Agreement, on or after the Effective Date. |
(c) | All Loans originated by Bank prior to the Effective Date shall be governed by the terms of the Existing Program Agreement as in effect at the time that such Loans were originated, and shall not be subject to the terms of this Agreement. |
(d) | This Agreement shall not operate so as to render invalid or improper any action heretofore taken under the Existing Program Agreement. |
2. | Marketing of the Program and Loans. Company shall promote and otherwise market the Program and the Loans. Marketing may include the use of third parties, including joint marketing agreements with other institutions, including financial institutions, all of which shall be within the scope of the Program and subject to the approval of Bank. In performing such promotion and other marketing services, Company may use any form of media, provided that Company shall discontinue the use of any specific form of media or media channel if directed to do so by Bank. Bank agrees that Company may refer to Bank and the Program in promotional and marketing materials, including marketing scripts, upon the condition that any references to Bank and/or the |
1
Program in any such materials (and any changes in such materials) must receive the prior written approval of Bank. Bank may require a change in such materials upon written notice provided to Company to the extent that such change is required by Applicable Laws, or to the extent that Bank determines such change is necessitated by safety and soundness concerns based upon standards established by a Regulatory Authority. Company shall ensure that all promotional and marketing materials shall be accurate and not misleading in all material respects. Company shall ensure that all promotional and marketing materials and strategies comply with Applicable Laws. The Parties will prepare a style guide to set forth rules regarding the usage of Bank’s name and the Program description and other matters that, when used by Company, shall be deemed to be approved by Bank; such style guide may be changed from time to time by Bank upon written notice to Company. The Parties also shall cooperate to develop and document a mutually agreed upon process for review of promotional and marketing materials, provided, however, that the failure of Bank to adhere to such process shall not be considered a breach of this Agreement.
3. | Extension of Credit. Upon approval of an Application, Bank shall originate a Borrower Account for the Applicant (unless the Applicant already has a Borrower Account through the Program with Bank, in which case a Loan would be originated through such existing Borrower Account), and any Loans to be made to that Applicant shall be issued under the Borrower Account for as long as the Borrower Account remains open. Company acknowledges that approval of an Application creates a creditor-borrower relationship between Bank and Borrower which involves, among other things, the disbursement of Loan Proceeds. Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate Bank to extend credit to an Applicant or disburse Loan Proceeds if Bank determines that doing so would be an unsafe or unsound banking practice. Bank shall use reasonable commercial efforts to provide Company prior notice of a decision not to extend credit to an Applicant or disburse Loan Proceeds in reliance on the preceding sentence and, in all instances where Bank does not provide such prior notice, Bank shall provide Company prompt notice after making a decision not to extend credit to an Applicant or disburse Loan Proceeds in reliance on the preceding sentence. |
4. | Finance Documents and Credit Policy. The following documents, terms and procedures (“Finance Materials”) that have been approved by Bank and that will be used by Bank initially with respect to the Borrower Accounts and Loans are attached to this Agreement: (i) the Program description as Exhibit A; (ii) Credit Policy(ies) as Exhibit B; (iii) form(s) of Application(s), including disclosures required by Applicable Laws, as Exhibit C; and (iv) form(s) of Borrower Account Agreement(s) and Loan Agreement(s), privacy policy and privacy notices, and all other Applicant and Borrower communications as Exhibit D. The Finance Materials shall not be changed without the prior written consent of both Parties; provided, however, that Bank may change the Finance Materials upon written notice provided to Company but without Company’s prior written consent, to the extent that such change is required by Applicable Laws or necessitated by safety and soundness concerns or the direction of a Regulatory Authority of Bank. Changes to the Finance Materials that are adopted pursuant to the prior sentence do not require changing the Exhibits to this Agreement. Multiple versions of the Finance Materials may be in effect at the same time, for example in order to apply to different types of Loans (e.g., consumer-purpose and business-purpose). The Parties acknowledge that each Borrower Account Agreement, Loan Agreement and all other documents referring to the creditor for the Program shall identify Bank as the creditor for the Loans. Company shall ensure that the Finance Materials comply with Applicable Laws. |

5. | Loan Processing and Origination. |
(a) | Company shall solicit Applications from Applicants and shall process such Applications on behalf of Bank (including retrieving credit reports) to determine whether the Applicant meets the eligibility criteria set forth in the Bank’s Credit Policy and Bank’s “Know Your Customer” and anti-money laundering criteria (collectively, the “Bank Secrecy Act Policy”), which is attached hereto as Exhibit E, and which may be updated by Bank from time to time and such updates shall be effective upon notice to Company as set forth herein. Company shall respond to all inquiries from Applicants regarding the application process. |
(b) | Company shall forward to Bank mutually agreed information including name, address, social security number or taxpayer identification number, and date of birth (if applicable) regarding Applicants who meet the eligibility criteria set forth in a Credit Policy. Such Borrower information shall be deemed to be the Bank’s Confidential Information at the time of Application and shall remain the property of the Bank as long as the Borrower Account remains open and owned by Bank. Company shall have no discretion to override a Credit Policy with respect to any Applications. |
(c) | Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Bank shall establish Borrower Accounts and Loans and make Loan Advances with respect to Applicants who meet the eligibility criteria set forth in Bank’s applicable Credit Policy. An Applicant who already has a Borrower Account may, in accordance with the applicable Credit Policy, apply for a Loan to be issued by Bank under the existing Borrower Account. |
(d) | Pursuant to procedures mutually agreed to by the Parties, on behalf of Bank, Company shall deliver adverse action notices to Applicants who do not meet Credit Policy criteria or are otherwise denied by Bank. |
(e) | Company shall deliver Program privacy notices, Borrower Account Agreements, and Loan Agreements to Borrowers. Company shall be solely responsible for filing and maintaining any Borrower-facing security agreements, financing statements, and other lien recordations, if any, in connection with Loans. Bank will provide prompt reasonable assistance as to such filings upon the request of Company. |
(f) | Company shall hold and maintain, as custodian, and in trust, for Bank, all documents of Bank pertaining to Borrower Accounts and Loans. Company shall periodically provide to Bank copies of records required to be maintained under the Bank Secrecy Act Policy and such other documents regarding Borrower Accounts and Loans as requested by Bank, at intervals mutually agreed to by the Parties, but no less frequently than monthly. |
(g) | Pursuant to Section 16, as Bank reasonably requires and upon reasonable advance written notice to Company, Bank will periodically audit Company for compliance with the terms of this Section 5 and the Agreement as a whole, including compliance with the standards set forth herein for Loan origination. |
3
(h) | Bank shall pay to Company the Transaction Fee, in consideration for Company’s marketing and facilitation activities with respect to Bank’s origination of a Borrower Account and a Loan. The Transaction Fee for a Loan shall be paid by Bank to Company on the day that a Loan is funded as provided in Section 6(a) (and, for a Loan that is a Line of Credit, shall be paid with respect to each Loan Advance on the date that a Loan Advance is funded). Bank shall transfer by wire transfer, or initiate a transfer by ACH, to an account designated by Company by no later than 3:00 PM Mountain Time on each Funding Date the aggregate Transaction Fee set forth on the Funding Statement. |
(i) | During the period during which the Loans or Borrower Accounts (respectively) are owned by Bank, Company will: |
(1) | take all actions reasonably necessary to effect and maintain Bank’s ownership interest in the Loans and Borrower Accounts; and |
(2) | not create or suffer to exist by its actions or inactions where there was a duty to act (by operation of law or otherwise) any lien, encumbrance or security interest upon or with respect to any of the Loans or Borrower Accounts. Company shall immediately notify Bank of the existence of any such lien, encumbrance or security interest (other than any lien, encumbrance or security interest created by, at the direction of, or with the consent of Bank) and shall defend the right, title and interest in, to and under the Loans and Borrower Accounts against all claims of third parties (other than a claim based on any lien, encumbrance or security interest created by, at the direction of, or with the consent of Bank). |
(j) | Company shall service the Borrower Accounts and the Loans in accordance with industry standards customary for loans and notes of the same general type and character. |
(k) | All materials, documents, communications, forms, templates, policies, and procedures used by Company to service the Borrower Accounts and Loans (“Servicing Materials”) shall be subject to the advance approval of Bank. The Servicing Materials may be changed only with the prior written consent of both Parties; provided, that Bank may change the Servicing Materials upon written notice provided to Company but without Company’s prior written consent, to the extent that such change is required by Applicable Laws, or to the extent that Bank determines such change is necessitated by safety and soundness concerns. Company shall ensure that all Servicing Materials shall comply with Applicable Laws and shall be accurate and not misleading in all material respects. |
(l) | Company shall perform the obligations described in this Section 5 and deliver any customer communications to Applicants and Borrowers as necessary to carry on the Program, all at Company’s own cost and in accordance with Applicable Laws. |
6. | Funding Loans. |
(a) | Company shall provide a Funding Statement to Bank by e-mail or as otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties by 1:00 PM Mountain Time on each Funding Date. Each Funding Statement shall (i) identify those Applicants whose Applications satisfy the requirements of a Credit Policy and with respect to whom Company requests that Bank establish Loans (or fund Loan Advances), (ii) provide the Funding Amount to be disbursed by Bank on |
4
such Funding Date, including instructions for the disbursement of Loan Proceeds to or on behalf of each Borrower, and (iii) provide the aggregate Transaction Fee related to such Loans. The Funding Statement shall be in the form of Exhibit F.
(b) | Subject to timely receipt of the Funding Statement, including receipt from Company of instructions for the disbursement of Loan Proceeds to or on behalf of each Borrower, Bank shall initiate the disbursement of Loan Proceeds to or on behalf of Borrowers in accordance with the procedures determined by the Parties, by no later than 5:00 PM Mountain Time on each Funding Date. Bank shall retain the Loan Origination Fees for Bank’s account. |
(c) | To the extent that the aggregate principal balance of Loans held by Bank (or its Affiliates) would exceed the Program Threshold Amount following the funding of any Loan or Loan Advance, Bank may elect not to fund such Loan or Loan Advance. Company may request an increase in the Program Threshold Amount at any time by providing written notice to Bank, specifying the increased Program Threshold Amount requested and accompanied by information supporting Company’s conclusion that the proposed increased Program Threshold Amount is reasonably necessary to support the expected growth in Program volume. Bank shall approve or reject any such request within ten (10) Business Days, and shall use reasonable best efforts to provide its approval or rejection more quickly. |
(d) | The obligations of Bank to disburse Loan Proceeds, as provided in Section 6(b), and to pay the Transaction Fee, as provided in Section 5(h), are subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent immediately prior to each disbursement of Loan Proceeds by Bank: |
(1) | the representations and warranties of Company set forth in the Program Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects at the time of or prior to each disbursement of Loan Proceeds by Bank as though made as of the time Bank disburses such Loan Proceeds; and |
(2) | the obligations of Company set forth in the Program Documents to be performed prior to each disbursement of Loan Proceeds by Bank shall have been performed prior to each such disbursement. |

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company shall not be obligated to indemnify any Indemnified Parties to the extent of: (i) Losses that arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Bank, or its officers, directors, employees or agents (other than Company and its agents), or (ii) Excluded Servicing Losses. |
(b) | To the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, any Indemnified Party seeking indemnification hereunder shall promptly notify Company, in writing, of any notice of the assertion by any third party of any claim or of the commencement by any third party of any legal or regulatory proceeding, arbitration or action, or if the Indemnified Party determines the existence of any such claim or the commencement by any third party of any such legal or regulatory proceeding, arbitration or action, whether or not the same shall have been asserted or initiated, in any case with respect to which Company is or may be obligated to provide indemnification (an “Indemnifiable Claim”), specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the claim and, if known, the amount or an estimate of the amount of the Loss; provided, that failure to promptly give such notice shall only limit the liability of Company to the extent of the actual prejudice, if any, suffered by Company as a result of such failure. The Indemnified Party shall provide to Company as promptly as practicable thereafter information and documentation reasonably requested by Company to defend against the Indemnifiable Claim. |
(c) | Company shall have ten (10) days after receipt of any notification of an Indemnifiable Claim (a “Claim Notice”) to notify the Indemnified Party in writing of Company’s election to assume the defense of the Indemnifiable Claim and, through counsel of the Company’s own choosing, and at its own expense, to commence the settlement or defense thereof, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with Company in connection therewith if such cooperation is so requested and the request is reasonable; provided that Company shall hold the Indemnified Party harmless from all its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with the Indemnified Party’s cooperation; provided, further, that if the Indemnifiable Claim relates to a matter before a Regulatory Authority, the Indemnified Party may elect, upon written notice to Company (the “Assumption Notice”), to assume the defense of the |
10
Indemnifiable Claim at the cost of and with the cooperation of Company. If the Company assumes responsibility for the settlement or defense of any such claim, (i) Company shall permit the Indemnified Party to participate at the Indemnified Party’s expense (for which no claim of Losses shall be made) in such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by the Indemnified Party; provided that, in the event that both Company and the Indemnified Party are defendants in the proceeding and the Indemnified Party has reasonably determined and notified Company that representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to the actual or potential differing interests between them, then the reasonable fees and expenses of one such counsel for all Indemnified Parties in the aggregate shall be borne by Company; and (ii) Company shall not settle any Indemnifiable Claim without the Indemnified Party’s consent.
(d) | If the Company does not notify the Indemnified Party in writing within ten (10) days after receipt of the Claim Notice that it elects to undertake the defense of the Indemnifiable Claim described therein, or if Company fails to contest vigorously any such Indemnifiable Claim, or if the Indemnified Party elects to control the defense of an Indemnifiable Claim before a Regulatory Authority as permitted by Section 9(c), then, in each case, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, upon reasonable written notice to the Company, to contest, settle or compromise the Indemnifiable Claim in the exercise of its reasonable discretion; provided that the Indemnified Party shall notify Company in writing prior thereto of any compromise or settlement of any such Indemnifiable Claim. No action taken by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this paragraph (d) shall deprive the Indemnified Party of its rights to indemnification pursuant to this Section 9. |
(e) | All amounts due under this Section 9 shall be payable not later than ten (10) days after receipt of the written demand therefor. |
(f) | The terms of this Section 9 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. |
10. | Term and Termination. |
(a) | This Agreement shall have an initial term beginning on the Effective Date and ending on January 31, 2020 (the “Initial Term”) and shall renew automatically for two (2) successive terms of one (1) year each (each a “Renewal Term,” collectively, the Initial Term and Renewal Term(s) shall be referred to as the “Term”), unless either Party provides notice of non-renewal to the other Party at least one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the end of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term or this Agreement is earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions hereof. |
(b) | This Agreement shall terminate immediately upon the expiration or earlier termination of either the Loan Sale Agreement or the Servicing Agreement. |
(c) | Bank shall have the right to terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to Company if: |
(1) | based upon the opinion of counsel, Bank’s continued participation in the Program would be in violation of Applicable Law or has been prohibited pursuant to an |
11
order or other action, including any letter or directive of any kind, by a Regulatory Authority;
(2) | a Regulatory Authority with jurisdiction over Bank has provided, formally or informally, concerns about the Program and Bank determines, in its sole discretion, and based upon the opinion of counsel, that its rights and remedies under this Agreement are not sufficient to protect Bank fully against the potential consequences of such concerns; |
(3) | a fine or penalty has been assessed against Bank by a Regulatory Authority in connection with the Program, including as a result of a consent order or stipulated judgment; |
(4) | Company defaults on its obligation to make a payment to Bank as provided in Schedule 2 of the Loan Sale Agreement or Section 3.2(d) of the Servicing Agreement and fails to cure such default within one (1) Business Day of receiving notice of such default from Bank; (ii) if Company defaults on its obligation to make a payment to Bank as provided in Schedule 2 of the Loan Sale Agreement or Section 3.2(d) of the Servicing Agreement more than once in any three (3) month period; or (iii) if Company fails to maintain the Required Balance in the Collateral Account as required by Schedule 31 of the Loan Sale Agreement; or |
(5) | there is a Change of Control of Company and the Bank exercises its termination right pursuant to this clause (5) not later than forty-five (45) days following receipt of the Company’s notice of such Change of Control of Company. |

(1) | any representation or warranty made by the other Party in this Agreement shall be incorrect in any material respect and shall not have been corrected within thirty (30) Business Days after written notice thereof has been given to such other Party; |
(2) | the other Party shall default in the performance of any obligation or undertaking under this Agreement and such default shall continue for thirty (30) Business Days after written notice thereof has been given to such other Party; |
(3) | the other Party shall commence a voluntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization, or other relief with respect to itself or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, conservatorship or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, conservator, custodian, or other similar official of it or any substantial part of its property, or shall consent to any such relief or to the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, conservator, custodian, or other similar official or to any involuntary case or other similar proceeding commenced against it, or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall fail generally to pay its debts as they become due, or shall take any corporate action to authorize any of the foregoing; |
12
(4) | an involuntary case or other proceeding, whether pursuant to banking regulations or otherwise, shall be commenced against the other Party seeking liquidation, reorganization, or other relief with respect to it or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, conservatorship or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, conservator, custodian, or other similar official of it or any substantial part of its property; or an order for relief shall be entered against the other Party under the federal bankruptcy laws as now or hereafter in effect; or |
(5) | there is a materially adverse change in the financial condition of the other Party on a consolidated basis. |
(e) | Upon termination of the Agreement by Company pursuant to Section 10(d), at the written request of Company, Bank shall continue to operate the Program for up to one hundred and eighty (180) days following receipt of Company’s written notice of termination, so long as both Parties continue to perform their respective obligations under the Program during the period contemplated in this Section 10(e). At the conclusion of such period, Bank may offer to Company and Company shall purchase all such offered Loans established by Bank through such date that have not already been purchased by Company. |
(f) | Except as provided in Section 10(e), Bank shall not be obligated to approve Applications, establish new Borrower Accounts or Loans, or fund new Loan Advances, after termination of this Agreement. |
(g) | Except as set forth in Section 10(f), the termination of this Agreement either in part or in whole shall not discharge any Party from any obligation incurred prior to such termination. |
(h) | Except as provided in Section 10(e), upon termination of this Agreement, Bank may offer to Company and Company shall purchase all such offered Loans established by Bank prior to and on the date of termination that have not already been purchased by Company. |
(i) | Bank’s obligation to operate the Program and establish Loans subsequent to a notice of termination or termination of this Agreement shall in all cases be subject to Applicable Law and/or regulatory requirements. |
(j) | Company’s failure to obtain the approval of Bank as required by Sections 2, 4 or 30, and Company’s failure to provide any notice required by Section 32, shall each constitute a material breach of this Agreement. In addition to any other remedies permitted by Applicable Law or this Agreement and without limiting Bank’s rights under Section 9, Bank may also invoice Company for, and Company agrees to pay, liquidated damages in the amount of (i) [***], or (ii) [***] for each subsequent failure of Company to obtain approval or provide notice. The Parties agree that it would be difficult to determine the precise damages to Bank in the event of such a breach by Company, and the Parties have therefore agreed on the foregoing liquidated damages as a reasonable approximation of the damages to Bank in the event of such a breach. |
13
(k) | Bank may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to Company if Bank incurs any Loss that would have been subject to indemnification under Section 9(a) but for the application of Applicable Laws that limit or restrict Bank’s ability to seek such indemnification. |
(l) | In addition to any other rights or remedies available to the Bank under this Agreement or by law, Bank shall have the right to suspend performance of its obligations under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, Bank’s payments of the Transaction Fee and Funding Amounts (as required under Sections 5 and 6 of this Agreement) during the period commencing with the occurrence of any monetary default by Company, including but not limited to the failure to purchase any Loans or Receivables under the Loan Sale Agreement, and ending when such condition has been cured. Notwithstanding such suspension right, Bank may terminate this Agreement as provided in Section 10(c). |
(m) | Upon the effectiveness of the expiration or termination of this Agreement, Company may purchase, and Bank shall sell to Company, all Borrower Accounts for consideration of [***]. Company shall provide its election to so purchase the Borrower Accounts not later than ten (10) days prior to the effectiveness of the expiration or termination of this Agreement and, if Company does not so elect, Bank shall close all Borrower Accounts and Company shall provide any communication of such closure to Borrowers as may be required or desirable under Applicable Laws. |
(n) | The terms of this Section 10 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. |
11. | Confidentiality. |
(a) | Each Party agrees that Confidential Information of the other Party shall be used by such Party solely in the performance of its obligations and exercise of its rights pursuant to the Program Documents. Except as required by Applicable Laws or legal process, neither Party (the “Restricted Party”) shall disclose Confidential Information of the other Party to third parties; provided, however, that the Restricted Party may disclose Confidential Information of the other Party (i) to the Restricted Party’s Affiliates, agents, representatives or subcontractors for the sole purpose of fulfilling the Restricted Party’s obligations under this Agreement (as long as the Restricted Party exercises reasonable efforts to prohibit any further disclosure by its Affiliates, agents, representatives or subcontractors), provided that in all events, the Restricted Party shall be responsible for any breach of the confidentiality obligations hereunder by any of its Affiliates, agents, representatives or subcontractors, (ii) to the Restricted Party’s auditors, accountants and other professional advisors (provided such receiving party is subject to confidentiality obligations at least as stringent as those set forth herein and the Restricted Party shall be responsible for any breach of confidentiality obligations by such receiving party), or to a Regulatory Authority or (iii) to any other third party as mutually agreed by the Parties. |
(b) | A Party’s Confidential Information shall not include information that: |
(1) | is generally available to the public; |
14
(2) | has become publicly known, without fault on the part of the Party who now seeks to disclose such information (the “Disclosing Party”), subsequent to the Disclosing Party acquiring the information; |
(3) | was otherwise known by, or available to, the Disclosing Party prior to entering into this Agreement; or |
(4) | becomes available to the Disclosing Party on a non-confidential basis from a Person, other than a Party to this Agreement, who is not known by the Disclosing Party after reasonable inquiry to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with the non-Disclosing Party or otherwise prohibited from transmitting the information to the Disclosing Party. |
(c) | Upon written request or upon the termination of this Agreement, each Party shall, within thirty (30) days, return to the other Party all Confidential Information of the other Party in its possession that is in written form, including by way of example, but not limited to, reports, plans, and manuals; provided, however, that either Party may maintain in its possession all such Confidential Information of the other Party required to be maintained under Applicable Laws relating to the retention of records for the period of time required thereunder. |
(d) | In the event that a Restricted Party is requested or required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any Confidential Information of the other Party, the Restricted Party will provide the other Party with prompt notice of such request(s) so that the other Party may seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive the Restricted Party’s compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. In the event that the other Party does not seek such a protective order or other remedy, or such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or the other Party grants a waiver hereunder, the Restricted Party may furnish that portion (and only that portion) of the Confidential Information of the other Party which the Restricted Party is legally compelled to disclose and will exercise such efforts to obtain reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded any Confidential Information of the other Party so furnished as the Restricted Party would exercise in assuring the confidentiality of any of its own Confidential Information. |
(e) | The terms of this Section 11 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. |
12. | Proprietary Material. Each Party (“Licensing Party”) hereby provides the other Party (“Licensee”) with a non-exclusive right and license to use and reproduce the Licensing Party’s name, logo, registered trademarks and service marks (“Proprietary Material”) on the Applications, Borrower Account Agreements, Loan Agreements, marketing materials, servicing materials and otherwise in connection with the fulfillment of Licensee’s obligations under the Program Documents; provided, however, that (i) the Licensee shall at all times comply with written instructions provided by the Licensing Party regarding the use of the Licensing Party’s Proprietary Material, and (ii) Licensee acknowledges that, except as specifically provided in this Agreement, it will acquire no interest in the Licensing Party’s Proprietary Material. Upon termination of this Agreement, Licensee will cease using Licensing Party’s Proprietary Material. |
15
13. | Relationship of Parties. The Parties agree that in performing their responsibilities pursuant to this Agreement, they are in the position of independent contractors. This Agreement is not intended to create, nor does it create and shall not be construed to create, a relationship of partner or joint venturer or any association for profit between Bank and Company. |
14. | Expenses. |

To the extent that such fees are expected to exceed [***] in a calendar quarter, Bank will provide email notification to the extent reasonably practicable. Company shall also pay for an annual compliance audit of the Program, and such other audits as may be requested by Bank from time to time in its reasonable discretion, in each case to be conducted by a third-party audit firm that is selected by and reports to Bank. Bank shall invoice Company for such fees. Company shall pay such invoice within thirty (30) days of receipt of such invoice. |
(f) | All fees payable pursuant to this Section 14 may be paid by wire, ACH, or check, as determined by the Company, but shall be paid pursuant to the terms of the Bank’s invoice. Bank may assess a service charge of 1.5% per month on any amounts due under this Agreement that are thirty (30) days past due. |
15. | Examination. Each Party agrees to submit to any examination that may be required by a Regulatory Authority having jurisdiction over the other Party, during regular business hours and upon reasonable prior notice, and to otherwise provide reasonable cooperation to the other Party in responding to such Regulatory Authority’s inquiries and requests relating to the Program. |
16. | Inspection; Reports. Each Party, upon reasonable prior notice from the other Party, agrees to submit to an inspection of its books, records, accounts, and facilities relevant to the Program, |
16
from time to time, during regular business hours subject, in the case of Bank, to the duty of confidentiality it owes to its customers and banking secrecy and confidentiality requirements otherwise applicable under Applicable Laws. All expenses of inspection shall be borne by the Party conducting the inspection. Notwithstanding the obligation of each Party to bear its own expenses of inspection, Company shall reimburse Bank for reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by Bank in the performance of periodic on site reviews of Company’s financial condition, operations and internal controls. Company shall store all documentation and electronic data related to its performance under this Agreement and shall make such documentation and data available during any inspection by Bank or its designee. With such frequency and in such manner as mutually agreed by the Parties, Company shall report to Bank regarding the performance of its obligations.
17. | Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Utah, without giving effect to the rules, policies, or principles thereof with respect to conflicts of laws. THE PARTIES HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING HEREUNDER. The terms of this Section 17 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. |
18. | Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is deemed invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, without affecting in any way the remaining portions hereof in such jurisdiction or rendering such provision or any other provision of this Agreement invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction. |
19. | Assignment. This Agreement and the rights and obligations created under it shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors, and permitted assigns. Neither Party shall be entitled to assign or transfer any interest under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party. No assignment under this section shall relieve a Party of its obligations under this Agreement. Company may use subcontractors in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, subject to Bank’s prior written approval of each such subcontractor; Bank may request the right to review and approve the contract between Company and any subcontractor. A list of approved subcontractors is attached in the form of Exhibit G hereto. Company agrees to be fully responsible for the acts and omissions of all subcontractors, including the subcontractors’ compliance with the terms of this Agreement and all Applicable Laws. Upon request by Bank, Company shall (a) cause a subcontractor to submit to an audit or examination by Bank or a Regulatory Authority having jurisdiction over Bank, and (b) terminate or suspend a subcontractor. |

22. | Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement may be amended only by a written instrument signed by each of the Parties. The failure of a Party to require the performance of any term of this Agreement or the waiver by a Party of any default under this Agreement shall not prevent a subsequent enforcement of such term and shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach. All waivers must be in writing and signed by the Party against whom the waiver is to be enforced. |
23. | Entire Agreement. The Program Documents, including exhibits, constitute the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede any prior or contemporaneous negotiations or oral or written agreements with regard to the same subject matter. |
18
24. | Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered by the Parties in any number of counterparts, and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which counterpart shall be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts, taken together, shall constitute but one and the same instrument. |
25. | Interpretation. The Parties acknowledge that each Party and its counsel have reviewed and revised this Agreement and that the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or any amendments thereto, and the same shall be construed neither for nor against either Party, but shall be given a reasonable interpretation in accordance with the plain meaning of its terms and the intent of the Parties. |
26. | Agreement Subject to Applicable Laws. If (a) either Party has been advised by legal counsel of a change in Applicable Laws or any judicial decision of a court having jurisdiction over such Party or any interpretation of a Regulatory Authority that, in the view of such legal counsel, would have a materially adverse effect on the rights or obligations of such Party under this Agreement or the financial condition of such Party, (b) either Party receives a request of any Regulatory Authority having jurisdiction over such Party, including any letter or directive of any kind from any such Regulatory Authority, that prohibits or restricts such Party from carrying out its obligations under this Agreement, or (c) either Party has been advised by legal counsel that there is a material risk that such Party’s or the other Party’s continued performance under this Agreement would violate Applicable Laws, then the Parties shall meet and consider in good faith any modifications, changes or additions to the Program or the Program Documents that may be necessary to eliminate such result. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Program Documents, including Section 10 hereof, if the Parties are unable to reach agreement regarding such modifications, changes or additions to the Program or the Program Documents within ten (10) Business Days after the Parties initially meet, either Party may terminate this Agreement upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the other Party. A Party may suspend performance of its obligations under this Agreement, or require the other Party to suspend its performance of its obligations under this Agreement, upon providing the other Party advance written notice, if any event described in subsections 26(a), (b) or (c) above occurs. |
27. | Force Majeure. If any Party is unable to carry out the whole or any part of its obligations under this Agreement by reason of a Force Majeure Event, then the performance of the obligations under this Agreement of such Party as they are affected by such cause shall be excused during the continuance of the inability so caused, except that should such inability not be remedied within thirty (30) days after the date of such cause, the Party not so affected may at any time after the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, during the continuance of such inability, terminate this Agreement on giving written notice to the other Party and without payment of a termination fee or other penalty. To the extent that the Party not affected by a Force Majeure Event is unable to carry out the whole or any part of its obligations under this Agreement because a prerequisite obligation of the Party so affected has not been performed, the Party not affected by a Force Majeure Event also is excused from such performance during such period. A “Force Majeure Event” as used in this Agreement shall mean an unanticipated event that is not reasonably within the control of the affected Party or its subcontractors (including, but not limited to, acts of God, acts of governmental authorities, strikes, war, riot and any other causes of such nature), and which by exercise of reasonable due diligence, such affected Party or its subcontractors could not reasonably have been expected to avoid, overcome or obtain, or cause to be obtained, a commercially reasonable substitute therefore. No Party shall be relieved of its obligations |
19
hereunder if its failure of performance is due to removable or remediable causes which such Party fails to remove or remedy using commercially reasonable efforts within a reasonable time period. Either Party rendered unable to fulfill any of its obligations under this Agreement by reason of a Force Majeure Event shall give prompt notice of such fact to the other Party, followed by written confirmation of notice, and shall exercise due diligence to remove such inability with all reasonable dispatch.
28. | Jurisdiction; Venue. The Parties consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue of the federal and state courts in Salt Lake City, Utah for any court action or proceeding. The terms of this Section 28 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. |
29. | Insurance. Company agrees to maintain insurance coverage on the terms and conditions specified in Exhibit H at all times during the term of this Agreement and to notify Bank promptly of any cancellation or lapse of any such insurance coverage. |
30. | Compliance with Applicable Laws; Program Compliance Manual. Company shall comply with Applicable Laws, the Bank Secrecy Act Policy and the Program Compliance Manual in its performance of this Agreement, including Loan solicitation, Application processing, Borrower Account and Loan servicing, and preparation of Borrower Account Agreements, Loan Agreements and other Loan documents. The Program Compliance Manual shall not be changed without the prior written consent of both Parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that Bank may change the Program Compliance Manual upon written notice provided to Company but without Company’s prior written consent, to the extent that such change is required by Applicable Laws, or to the extent that Bank determines such change is necessitated by safety and soundness concerns. A copy of the Program Compliance Manual is attached hereto as Exhibit I. Without limiting the foregoing, Company shall: |

Exhibit D
Borrower Account and Loan Documentation
The following Borrower Agreement (“Agreement”) is between you (“you” and “your” mean each and every borrower, including any joint applicant/co-borrower) and WebBank, a Utah-chartered industrial bank (“we,” or “us”). This Agreement governs the process by which you may make a request or requests for a loan from us through the website Xxxxxxxxxxx.xxx, including any subdomains thereof, or other application channels offered by us (collectively, the “Site”) and operated by Lending Club Corporation (“Lending Club”). If you make a loan request, and if that request results in a loan that is approved and issued by us, then your loan will be governed by the terms of the Loan Agreement and Promissory Note, which is attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A, and as it may be revised from time to time. The version in effect when you make a loan request will apply to any loan made in response to that request, and any secondary loan would be governed by the terms of the document then in effect. This Agreement will remain in effect for the applicable loan, and will terminate if your loan request is cancelled, withdrawn, or declined.
BY ELECTRONICALLY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT, YOU HAVE SIGNIFIED YOUR AGREEMENT TO THESE TERMS.
1. Loans. Under this Agreement, you can request an installment loan issued and originated by us that is facilitated through the Site. When you make a request, you agree to receive and timely repay the loan that may be made in response to that request, subject to your right to cancel the request before closing as described in section 6 below. Your agreement means you agree to repay the money provided by us to you and to abide by the terms of this Agreement, the Loan Agreement and Promissory Note, and all other agreements or disclosures provided to you during the loan process and which may be found in your Lending Club account. Any dispute with us, Lending Club or any subsequent holder of the Loan Agreement and Promissory Note will be resolved by binding arbitration, subject to your right to opt out as set forth below. Each loan request is subject to our credit criteria in effect at the time of your loan request.
2. Account Verification. You understand that if we are unable to verify your bank account for any reason, we will cancel your application, your loan request will not be posted on the Site, and this Agreement will be terminated.
3. Loan Requests. You may post a qualifying loan request on the Site. You may not post more than one loan request on the site at a time and you may not have more than two loans outstanding at any given time. You may post a loan request on the Site, and Lending Club investors (“Investors”) will be able to review your loan request. Investors may commit to (i) purchase the loan by subsequently acquiring the loan itself from us or Lending Club or (ii) invest indirectly in your loan through the purchase of securities issued by Lending Club. You acknowledge that an Investor’s commitment to invest in all or a portion of your loan does not confer any rights to you or obligate us to issue your loan. You understand that Investors make their own decisions whether to invest in your loan. Finally, Lending Club may also choose to invest in all or part of your loan request, but is not obligated to do so.
We may elect in our sole discretion to give you a partial funding option, if necessary, which means your loan will be issued if it receives commitments totaling less than the full amount of your requested loan (subject to any applicable minimum loan size).
WE DO NOT WARRANT OR GUARANTEE (1) THAT YOUR LOAN REQUEST WILL ATTRACT
Confidential
INVESTMENT INTEREST, OR (2) THAT YOU WILL RECEIVE A LOAN AS A RESULT OF POSTING A REQUEST.
If your loan is going to be issued either for the full amount of your listed loan or as a result of any partial funding option, your loan will close and issue within fourteen (14) days following the listing of your loan request on the Site, unless you notify us in writing of your election to terminate your loan request sufficiently far in advance of the loan closing for us to cancel the loan.
4. Loan Terms. Your loan will have a principal balance in the amount set forth in the truth and lending disclosure and Loan Agreement and Promissory Note, each of which is provided to you and placed into the on-line account you established upon registration. You agree and acknowledge that the initial loan disclosures made to you are estimates and are subject to change based on the actual, initial principal balance of the loan issued and your selected payment option (check or Automated Clearing House (“ACH”)). Opting to pay by check will result in a processing fee that will increase your APR. All loans are unsecured, fully-amortizing, closed-end loans for the term stated in your truth in lending disclosure and Loan Agreement and Promissory Note. Your obligations, including your obligation to repay principal and interest, are set forth in the Loan Agreement and Promissory Note. Other fees and terms of the loan will also be set forth in the Loan Agreement and Promissory Note.
5. Credit Decisions. If you make a loan request, you must fully complete the application on the Site. You do not need to disclose alimony, child support or separate maintenance income if you do not wish to have it considered as a basis for repaying a loan. You agree and acknowledge that we may verify any information you submit either by asking for true and complete copies of necessary documentation, by other proof or through a third party. By proceeding with the application, you consent to our use of any third-party to verify any information about, or provide by, you.

20. Arbitration. RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES: I HAVE READ THIS PROVISION CAREFULLY AND UNDERSTAND THAT IT LIMITS MY RIGHTS IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND ME. I UNDERSTAND THAT I HAVE THE RIGHT TO REJECT THIS PROVISION AS PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH (b) BELOW.
a. Either party to this Agreement, or any subsequent holder, may, at its sole election, require that the sole and exclusive forum and remedy for resolution of a Claim be final and binding arbitration pursuant to this section 20 (the “Arbitration Provision”), unless you opt out as provided in section 20(b) below. As used in this Arbitration Provision, “Claim” shall 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 and/or any
5
Confidential
subsequent holder (or persons claiming through or connected with us and/or the subsequent holders), on the other hand, relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any Loan Agreement and Promissory Note(s), the Site, and/or the activities or relationships that involve, lead to, or result from any of the foregoing, including (except to the extent provided otherwise in the last sentence of section 20(f) below) 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, counter‐claims, cross-claims, third-party claims, or otherwise. The scope of this Arbitration Provision is to be given the broadest possible interpretation that is enforceable.
b. You may opt out of this Arbitration Provision for all purposes by sending an arbitration opt out notice to WebBank, c/o Lending Club Corporation, 00 Xxxxxxxxx Xx., Xxxxx 000, Xxx Xxxxxxxxx XX, 00000, Attention: Legal Department, which is received at the specified address within 30 days of the date of your electronic acceptance of the terms of this Agreement. The opt out notice must clearly state that you are rejecting arbitration; identify the Agreement to which it applies by date; provide your name, address, and social security number; and be signed by you. You may send an opt out notice in any manner you see fit as long as it is received at the specified address within the specified time. No other methods can be used to opt out of this Arbitration Provision. If the opt out notice is sent on your behalf by a third party, such third party must include evidence of his or her authority to submit the opt out notice on your behalf.
c. The party initiating arbitration shall do so with the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) or Judicial Alternatives and Mediation Services (“JAMS”). The arbitration shall be conducted according to, and the location of the arbitration shall 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 the AAA or would like to obtain a copy of the AAA arbitration rules, you may call 0(000) 000-0000 or visit the AAA’s web site at: xxx.xxx.xxx. If you have any questions concerning JAMS or would like to obtain a copy of the JAMS arbitration rules, you may call 0(000) 000-0000 or visit their web site at: xxx.xxxxxxx.xxx. In the case of a conflict between the rules and policies of the administrator and this Arbitration Provision, this Arbitration Provision shall control, subject to countervailing law, unless all parties to the arbitration consent to have the rules and policies of the administrator apply.
d. If we (or the subsequent holder) elect arbitration, we (or the subsequent holder, as the case may be) shall pay all the administrator’s filing costs and administrative fees (other than hearing fees). If you elect arbitration, filing costs and administrative fees (other than hearing fees) shall 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 (or the subsequent holder, as the case may be) shall pay the administrator’s hearing fees for one full day of arbitration hearings. Fees for hearings that exceed one 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 (or the subsequent holder) pay them and we agree (or the subsequent holder agrees) to do so. Each party shall 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 shall apply in the arbitration notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein.
e. Within 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 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 shall
6
Confidential
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, shall be final and binding, except for any appeal right under the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
f. We agree not to invoke our right to arbitrate an individual Claim you may bring in Small Claims Court or an equivalent court, if any, so long as the Claim is pending only in that court. 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 shall determine the rights and obligations of the named parties only, and only with respect to the claims in arbitration, and shall 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 shall have the power or authority to waive, modify, or fail to enforce this section 20(f), and any attempt to do so, whether by rule, policy, arbitration decision or otherwise, shall be invalid and unenforceable. Any challenge to the validity of this section 20(f) shall be determined exclusively by a court and not by the administrator or any arbitrator.
g. This Arbitration Provision is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce and shall be governed by and enforceable under 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 shall take steps to reasonably protect confidential information.
h. This Arbitration Provision shall survive (i) suspension, termination, revocation, closure, or amendments to this Agreement and the relationship of the parties and/or Lending Club; (ii) the bankruptcy or insolvency of any party or other person; and (iii) any transfer of any loan or Loan Agreement or Promissory Note(s) or any other promissory note(s) which you owe, or any amounts owed on such loans or notes, to any other person or entity. If any portion of this Arbitration Provision other than section 20(f) is deemed invalid or unenforceable, the remaining portions of this Arbitration Provision shall nevertheless remain valid and in force. If an arbitration is brought on a class, representative, or collective basis, and the limitations on such proceedings in section 20(f) are finally adjudicated pursuant to the last sentence of section 20(f) to be unenforceable, then no arbitration shall be had. In no event shall any invalidation be deemed to authorize an arbitrator to determine Claims or make awards beyond those authorized in this Arbitration Provision.
THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY HAVE A RIGHT TO LITIGATE CLAIMS THROUGH A COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY, BUT WILL NOT HAVE THAT RIGHT IF ANY PARTY ELECTS ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION. THE PARTIES HEREBY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVE THEIR RIGHTS TO LITIGATE SUCH CLAIMS IN A COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY UPON ELECTION OF ARBITRATION BY ANY PARTY.

Exhibit A
LOAN AGREEMENT AND PROMIISSORY NOTE
Borrower name:__________________________________________________________ | (not visible to investors) |
Borrower address:________________________________________________________ | (not visible to investors) |
Joint Applicant/Co-Borrower name:__________________________________________ | (not visible to investors) |
Joint Applicant/Co-Borrower address:________________________________________ | (not visible to investors) |
$_____________________ | |
_______________, 20____ |
For value received, I (referred to herein as “Borrower” which for purposes of this Loan Agreement and Promissory Note (the “Note”) includes all parties obligated hereunder, including any joint applicant/co-borrower ) promise to pay to the order of WebBank or any subsequent holder (“you” or “Lender”) of this Note the principal sum of ________________ ($_________) Dollars with interest as set forth below. Borrower intends to be legally bound by this Note. Borrower has read, understood, and agreed to all of the terms of this Note.
Interest Rate. This Note bears interest during each calendar month from the date hereof until paid in full, at a fixed rate of ______ (%) per annum.
Interest Calculation Method. Interest is calculated daily on the basis of a 360-day year with 12 months each of which is 30 days (or 30/360) long, regardless if a month has more or less than 30 days. This Note shall bear interest on any overdue installment of principal and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, on any overdue installment of interest, at the interest rate stated and as calculated above.
Payments. Principal and interest is to be paid during and throughout the period of ________ months in the following manner:
Payments of principal and interest in the amount of ________________ ($______) Dollars are to be made by the Borrower to the Lender commencing _____________, 20_, and on the same day of each successive month thereafter until __________, 20__, when the full amount of unpaid principal, together with unpaid accrued interest is due and payable. If the monthly anniversary is on the 29th, 30th, or 31st of the month, and the following month does not have a 29th, 30th, or 31st day, the monthly payment will be due on the last day of the month in which the payment was due.
Borrower’s last payment might be of a different amount, which could be higher than the monthly installment amounts, to adjust for rounding and/or due to calculation of daily interest charges in certain instances such as a payment due date change or Borrower making a payment after the payment due date. In such cases, the amount of the last monthly payment will be adjusted by the amount necessary to repay the loan in full.
All payments on this Note are to be made in immediately available lawful money of the United States.
Borrower may make loan payments either by check, subject to any applicable check processing fee, or Borrower may authorize any Lender to debit Borrower’s designated account by ACH transfer for the amount of each payment due on each due date. Borrower is responsible for ensuring that all names,
8
Confidential
account, routing or other similar information provided by Borrower to Lender for accounts that Borrower is directing Lender to deliver loan proceeds to (“Directed Accounts”) are accurate and complete. Borrower agrees to hold Lender and Lending Club harmless for any alleged or actual loss, claim, fee or other damage or expense Borrower may suffer related to the failure of a Directed Account to receive such proceeds if such failure was the result (directly or indirectly) of any error in any name, account, routing or other similar information provided by Borrower to Lender. Borrower acknowledges that neither it nor Lending Club have any obligation to confirm or investigate the accuracy or completeness of the information Borrower has provided. Borrower further agrees that if the loan proceeds are rejected by a Directed Account that is not Borrower’s designated bank account that Lender may deliver the loan proceeds into the designated bank account to satisfy our obligation of loan proceed delivery. In all events under this section, interest will begin to accrue as date of issuance of the loan and not upon the actual receipt of proceeds by Borrower or any other designated third-party. If we are unable to deliver loan proceeds to the Directed Account(s) or Borrower’s designated bank account after 14 days from the initial delivery attempt, the loan will be canceled and only in this circumstance will Borrower not owe any interest on the loan.
If Borrower elects to make payments by automatic withdrawal, Borrower has the right to stop payment of these automatic withdrawals or revoke prior authorization for automatic withdrawals by notifying Lender and Lending Club of the exercise of its right to stop a payment or revoke authorization for automatic withdrawals no less than three (3) banking days before Borrower’s next payment due date.
If Borrower elects to make payments by check, Borrower must send the check either by regular mail or by overnight mail or UPS delivery to Xxxxx Xxxxx Xxxx Xxx Xxxxxxxx, Xxxx #00000, 0000 Xxxxxx Xxx, Xxxxxx X, Xxxxxxx, XX 00000. There will be a $7 check processing fee per payment, subject to applicable law. Borrower may change its payment method by contacting xxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxx.xxx.
Borrower’s payment method and any necessary authorization do not affect its obligation to pay when due all amounts payable on the Note, whether or not there are sufficient funds in the applicable deposit account. The foregoing authorization is in addition to, and not in limitation of, any rights of setoff Lender may have.
All payments are to be applied first to the payment of all fees, expenses and other amounts due (excluding principal and interest), then to accrued interest, and the balance on account of outstanding principal; provided, however, that after an Event of Default (as defined below), payments will be applied to Borrower’s obligations as Lender determines in its sole discretion.
If this loan is subject to an origination fee, such fee is deducted from the loan proceeds and paid to the Lender. Any origination fee of 5% or less is not refundable regardless of when, or if, the loan is paid in full. Any origination fee amount in excess of 5% is refundable on a prorated basis over the term of the loan when and if the loan is paid in full prior to its maturity date. A partial pre-payment will not result in the refund of any origination fee amount. Borrower acknowledges that the origination fee is considered part of the principal of Borrower’s loan and is subject to the accrual of interest.
If a payment is returned or fails due to insufficient funds in the designated account, Borrower will be charged a fee of $15, to the extent permitted by applicable law. An unsuccessful payment fee will be assessed for each failed attempt, up to three times total for a single payment. The bank that holds Borrower’s deposit account may assess its own fee in addition to the fee assessed under this Note. If Borrower’s payment is more than 15 days late, a late fee may be charged in an amount equal to the greater
9
Confidential
of 5% of the outstanding payment or $15, to the extent permitted by applicable law. Only one late fee will be charged on each late payment. Any payment received after 3:00 P.M., Mountain Time, on a banking day is deemed received on the next succeeding banking day. Borrower authorizes Lender to deduct any fees due by ACH transfers initiated to the deposit account on file for Borrower.
Prepayments and Partial Payments. Borrower may make any payment early, in whole or in part, without penalty or premium at any time. Any partial prepayment is applied against the principal amount outstanding and does not postpone the due date of any subsequent monthly payment, unless expressly agreed to in writing. If Borrower prepays this Note in part, Borrower agrees to continue to make regularly scheduled payments until all amounts due under this Note are paid. Lender may accept late payments or partial payments, even though marked “paid in full”, without losing any rights under this Note. Any regularly scheduled monthly installment of principal and interest that is received by Lender before the date it is due shall be deemed to have been received on the due date solely for the purpose of calculating interest due.
Use of Funds. Borrower certifies that the proceeds of the loan will not be used for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any securities or to fund any illegal activity, or to fund any post-secondary educational expenses, including, but not limited to, tuition, fees, books, supplies, miscellaneous expenses, or room and board.
Default. Borrower will be deemed in default (each, an “Event of Default”) of Borrower’s obligations under this Note if Borrower: (1) fails to pay timely any amount due on the loan; (2) files or has instituted against it or any joint applicant/co-borrower any bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings or make any assignment for the benefit of creditors; (3) commits fraud or makes any material misrepresentation in this Note, or in any other documents, applications or related materials delivered to Lender in connection with its loan or (4) fails to abide by the terms of this Note or the Borrower Agreement. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may exercise all remedies available under applicable law and this Note, including without limitation demand that Borrower immediately pay all amounts owed on this Note.
Lender may report information about Borrower’s account to credit bureaus. Should there be more than one Borrower, Lender will report that loan account to the credit bureaus in the names of all Borrowers. Late payments, missed payments, or other defaults on an account may be reflected in Borrower’s credit report. Borrower agrees to pay all costs of collecting any delinquent payments, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, as permitted by applicable law.
Joint and Several Liability.
The liability of any joint applicant/co-borrower to repay in full this loan is in addition to and not in lieu of the obligations of the primary Borrower to repay the loan in full. The joint applicant/co-borrower agrees to abide by the terms and conditions of this Note or any other agreements or documents provide or executed as part of the application process, as if an original signatory.
Lender (or its designee) has sole discretion to proceed against both the Borrower and any joint applicant/co-borrower to recover all the amounts due under this Note. Further, Lender (or its designee) can accept instructions from either Borrower or the joint applicant/co-borrower, and notice given to either party shall be binding on both parties and all disclosures provided to a party will be deemed simultaneously received by all parties.
Loan Charges. If a law that applies to the Loan and sets maximum loan charges is finally interpreted so that the interest or other loan charges collected or to be collected in connection with the Loan exceed the
10
Confidential
permitted limits, then: (a) any such loan charge shall be reduced by the amount necessary to reduce the charge to the permitted limit; and (b) any sums already collected from Borrower that exceeded permitted limits will be refunded to Borrower. Lender may choose to make this refund by reducing the principal owed under this Note or by making a direct payment to Borrower.
Electronic Transactions. THIS AGREEMENT IS FULLY SUBJECT TO BORROWER’S CONSENT TO ELECTRONIC TRANSACTIONS AND DISCLOSURES, WHICH CONSENT IS SET FORTH IN THE TERMS OF USE FOR THE SITE. BORROWER EXPRESSLY AGREES THAT THE NOTE IS A “TRANSFERABLE RECORD” FOR ALL PURPOSES UNDER THE ELECTRONIC SIGNATURES IN GLOBAL AND NATIONAL COMMERCE ACT AND THE UNIFORM ELECTRONIC TRANSACTIONS ACT.
Miscellaneous.
Lender may, without notice to Borrower, assign all of its right, title and interest in this Note to any other third-party. Borrower further understands, acknowledges and agrees that any assignee may sell, assign or transfer the Note and all associated documents and information related to the Note without Borrower’s consent or delivery of notice. Borrower may not assign this Note without the prior written consent of Lender. This Note inures to the successors, permitted assigns, heirs and representatives of Borrower and Lender.
Borrower hereby waives demand, notice of non-payment, protest, and all other notices or demands whatsoever, and hereby consents that without notice to and without releasing the liability of any party, the obligations evidenced by this Note may from time to time, in whole or part, be renewed, extended, modified, accelerated, compromised, settled or released by Lender.
Any changes to this Note must be in writing signed by Borrower and Lender. Notices will be provided electronically to Borrower’s account, unless Borrower has opted out of electronic delivery and then will be mailed to the addresses then on record.
This Note is subject to the arbitration provisions of the Borrower Agreement between Lender and Borrower, which is incorporated by reference into this Note.
Controlling Law. Lender is located in the State of Utah and this Note is executed and delivered in the State of Utah and is a contract made under such state’s law. The provisions of this Note will be governed by federal laws and the laws of the State of Utah to the extent not preempted, without regard to any principle of conflicts of law.
