eConnect shall pay 3Pea $285.000.00 on the first

2001 through January 1, 2002 and an additional
$95,000.00 shall be due to 3Pea on delivery to
eConnect of each monthly shipment.
7. The parties agree and understand that, because the
PAYPADs will be shipped to eConnect by air from
outside the United States, the initial shipment of
PAYPADs may not reach eConnect by August 15, 2001,
and likewise subsequent monthly shipments may not
reach eConnect by the first day of each month during

delivery of the PAYPADs to eConnect of fifteen (15)
calendar days from the dates specified herein.

3Pea an additional charge not to exceed $0.70 per PAYPAD

shipment. This sum shall be billed separately to eConnect on a
monthly basis by 3Pea, and will be due and payable to 3Pea
upon receipt by eConnect of such invoice. 3Pea shall provide
shipping services to end users within the Continental United
States.
F. Private labeling. The parties have discussed the possibility
that eConnect may wish to have an additional label or
designation placed on all or some of the PAYPADs. To the
extent the parties agree to so proceed, the parties will
execute a separate and additional written agreement detailing
the terms and costs of such additional labeling.
G. Key Injection. An eConnect consultant or employee will be
given access to PAYPADs at 3Pea storage facility for the
purpose of key injection.

remote financial electronic card transaction devices which
enable the consumer to effect self serviced remote epayment
transactions with either a credit card, ATM card with PIN,
smart card or other types of financial cards.
K. Material Breech. The parties agree and understand that the
failure of either party to meet the terms of the payment and
delivery schedule set forth in paragraph D hereinabove shall
constitute a material breech of this agreement.
L. Applicable law. This Agreements shall be governed and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
California.
