CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL APPEARING IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [*****] HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO RULE 24b-2 PROMULGATED UNDER THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED
MasterCard rules and prior approval by Issuing Bank and MasterCard. Without limiting the foregoing, Greensky acknowledges that each Program Sponsor, and each Program is subject to the approval of Comdata, MasterCard and the Issuing Bank.
Greensky acknowledges and agrees that (i) Comdata is not in the business of providing consumer credit, and (ii) to the extent Cards are issued to consumers, Greensky assumes sole responsibility and liability for compliance with all applicable federal, state and local laws, rules or regulations relating to consumer financing activities or the use of the Cards in connection with such consumer financing activities, including, without limitation, all disclosure requirements. Greensky shall indemnify and hold harmless Comdata, MasterCard and Issuing Bank from any and all claims, liabilities, damages or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or in connection with the issuance of any Cards to an individual consumer, or the extension of consumer credit in connection with the Program.
(b) | Co-branded Card. The Card will be a co-branded MasterCard card, bearing both the MasterCard brand and the logo or design of the applicable Program Sponsor, subject to MasterCard approval. Greensky, in conjunction with the applicable Program Sponsor, shall be responsible for choosing its artwork and graphic design for the Cards and for obtaining any permission as necessary to utilize such artwork and graphics. All Cards will be issued by Issuing Bank. Greensky and the Program Sponsor will be required to sign an Affinity Agreement with the Issuing Bank, which includes a license of trademarks and trade names for the Program. All Cards shall remain the property of Issuing Bank. For some Program Sponsors, an actual plastic Card may not be issued, but instead the Customer will utilize the Initial Bar Code described below to access his or her loan proceeds. |
(c) | Card Issuance. Prospective Customers may apply for their Greensky loan through a Program Sponsor service desk and when the Customer is approved for a loan by Greensky, Greensky will issue a printed bar code and account number (“Initial Bar Code”) that may be used to access the Customer’s loan proceeds. For some Program Sponsors, Comdata will mail personalized Cards to the Customers within ten (10) business days of issuance of the Initial Bar Code, but for other Program Sponsors, the Customer will continue to use the Initial Bar Code to access his or her loans. |
(d) | Card Acceptance. Card acceptance may be restricted to merchant category codes related to the home improvement industry, wholesale clubs or others to be agreed upon from time-to-time by Greensky and Comdata, subject to below floor limit Transactions and merchant identification changes. For certain Program Sponsors, such as The Home Depot, the Cards may be restricted to certain Program Sponsor locations designated by Greensky. All Transactions will be authorized and settled through the MasterCard network. Greensky understands that the restricted card acceptance is based on the merchant category codes, or the merchant identification code, marketer ID and acquirer ID set by the MasterCard network, and that these codes could be changed without prior notice to Comdata. Also, under MasterCard rules Transactions below the merchant’s floor limit may be processed manually rather than electronically, and accordingly will be approved regardless of the merchant identification. International transactions will be blocked. |
(e) | Program Responsibilities. Each Party is responsible for certain aspects of the Program as follows: |
(i) | Greensky’s responsibilities. Greensky shall be responsible for the following: |
(1) | All marketing activities for the Program; |

3. | Accounts and Payment Terms. |
(a) | Accounts. Comdata will establish a corporate account for Greensky and will designate a separate account code and one or more customer identifications for each Customer, which will be tied to Greensky’s corporate account. Greensky understands and agrees that the accounts and Card(s) may only be used for valid and lawful purposes and limited to use for the specific approved Program. If Greensky uses, or allows Customers to use, the Card(s) or accounts for any other purpose, then Greensky shall be responsible for such use and may be required to reimburse Comdata, the Issuing Bank, and MasterCard for all amounts or expenses either Comdata, the Issuing Bank or MasterCard pays as a result of such use. Comdata recognizes that Greensky has business relationships with the Customers and Cardholders. Greensky has every right to market to the Customers and Cardholders without any approval or consent of Comdata. Furthermore, Comdata promises to not market any products or services to clients or accounts associated with Greensky accounts, Customers or Cardholders. Nothing contained herein shall prohibit Comdata from marketing or providing any products or services to Program Sponsors. |
(b) | Credit Limit. Comdata will establish an overall credit limit for the corporate account based on Comdata’s credit review of Greensky and the various Funding Banks and will set credit limits for each Customer account based on instructions from Greensky. Greensky will ensure that the total of all Customer account credit limits will not exceed the overall corporate account credit limit. Comdata shall have the right to periodically review and adjust the credit limit on the corporate account as |

Comdata deems necessary. Greensky will be required to provide security in the form of a letter of credit or cash deposit in the amount determined by Comdata, which initially will be based on the projected transaction volume and subsequently on the actual usage. Greensky shall not allow the unpaid balance, including fees and other charges, to exceed the credit limit. If the credit limit is exceeded, then Comdata may request immediate payment, suspend service and charge additional service fees.
(c) | Account Payments. On a daily basis, Greensky will wire funds to Comdata’s designated account in an amount equal to all Transactions authorized in the previous 24 hours (or longer period for the day after a non-Business Day). Upon Greensky’s payment to Comdata in an amount equal to the then outstanding and undisputed authorized Transactions within the relevant period, Greensky or its assignee shall have the unencumbered right to collect the monies due and owing for such Transactions from the Customers (the “Receivables”) and shall likewise have the right to grant a first priority security interest in such Receivables to a third party. Greensky will reimburse Comdata for the costs of welcome kits to Customers and for the costs of producing any customized media inserts included in the welcome kits. Comdata will invoice Greensky separately for such Card related costs and expenses. Late payments of amounts owed to Comdata are subject to late fees in the maximum amount allowed by law. |
(d) | Incentive Payments. Comdata shall provide a monthly rebate to Greensky by the 15th of each month in an amount equal to the aggregate net MasterCard merchant interchange, less the first [*****] basis points, on the total amount of Card transactions on all Customer accounts. The rebate is calculated each month based on the previous month’s transactions, net of any charge backs or credit losses. Greensky acknowledges and agrees that it is required to pay Comdata within 24 hours and will be responsible for Comdata’s cost of capital (cash) if it fails to do so in an amount equal to [*****] basis points of the total spend amount per day that the payment is delayed. |
(e) | Security. From time to time Comdata may request Greensky to provide security for the performance when due of Greensky’s obligations hereunder. Greensky agrees to provide Comdata with such security, which shall be in the amount and form as required by Comdata in its reasonable discretion. The Account will not be available to Greensky until such security is accepted by Comdata in its sole discretion. In addition to any other security requested by Comdata, Greensky agrees to provide the personal guaranty of Xxxxx Xxxxx. Comdata shall return any excess security from time-to-time and shall return all remaining security when all Programs are no longer active and all amounts owing on any accounts have been indefeasibly paid. |

4. | Term. The initial Term shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue until the third (3rd) anniversary of such date.

event any such breach or default is not cured within a reasonable period of time, then the party not in default may thereafter terminate this Agreement. Greensky acknowledges and agrees that any default by Greensky called by a Funding Bank under any loan origination agreement or other agreement with the Funding Banks shall be a material default under this Agreement. Greensky agrees to notify Comdata promptly of any such default called by a Funding Bank. Additionally, Greensky agrees to notify Comdata within 24 hours of receiving notice that a Funding Bank intends to no longer participate and fund under the Program. Greensky’s obligation to pay for all outstanding amounts on the accounts incurred before the effective date of termination shall survive termination.
6. | Customer Verification. Greensky shall be responsible for verifying the identity of each Customer and for assuring that each Customer is not using the Cards for funding any illegal activities or financing terrorist activities. Accordingly, Greensky represents and warrants that it has developed, implemented and will maintain an effective Anti-Money Laundering and OFAC compliance program, including written policies and procedures and internal controls designed to verify the identity of each Customer and to monitor for any suspicious activity. If Greensky identifies suspicious activity or receives a match against the OFAC list, then it will promptly report such incident to Comdata’s BSA Compliance Officer. Recordkeeping efforts regarding Greensky’s customer identification program should align with the Comdata AML-OFAC Compliance Manual and records should be retained for a period of five years. |
Further, Greensky represents and warrants that it has developed and implemented written policies and procedures as required by Section 114 of the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003 to detect, prevent, and mitigate the risk of identity theft in connection with the Program and that these policies and procedures are reviewed periodically and updated as necessary. Greensky further represents and warrants that a component of its identify theft prevention program is to identify red flags indicative of possible identity theft. If Greensky identifies an incident of identity theft, it will promptly report such incident to Comdata and take all other appropriate steps to prevent or mitigate identity theft.
Greensky will provide Comdata copies of its Anti-Money Laundering and OFAC compliance program and Identity Theft Prevention program documents upon request.
7. | Compliance with Laws. Greensky represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that all actions it takes under this Agreement will comply in all material respects with applicable local, state and federal laws and regulations in effect from time to time, including, but not limited to, the federal Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act, the federal Truth in Lending Act, the federal Bank Secrecy Act and USA Patriot Act/OFAC and any regulations promulgated to implement such laws. Comdata and its internal and external auditors and the government agencies that regulate it, will have the right to initiate periodic audits of Greensky to ensure compliance with laws, at least once each calendar year upon at least ten (10) days prior notice. Any such audit will be at Comdata’s expense and will be conducted during reasonable business hours in such a manner that does not unduly disrupt normal business operations. If any such audit results in Greensky being notified that it is not in compliance with any applicable law or regulation, then Greensky will, at its expense, promptly take any and all actions necessary to cause compliance with such law or regulation. The rights and obligations in this Section shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement. |
8. | Confidentiality and Data Security. Each Party agrees and covenants that it shall not, during term of the Agreement or at any time after the termination or expiration hereof, use or disclose to any third party, other than during the proper performance of its duties, the confidential and proprietary |

Pursuant to Section 3(c), Comdata will transmit electronic cardholder data to Greensky for Greensky to provide reports and invoices to Cardholders. Greensky shall be responsible for the security of Cardholder data in its possession and control. Greensky will take commercially reasonable security precautions to safeguard such data and to prevent unauthorized third parties from accessing, modifying or altering such data. Greensky will promptly notify Comdata of any security breach that could affect the integrity, confidentiality, or accuracy of the Cardholder data and shall comply with all applicable law regarding such breach. Although it is not anticipated that Comdata will provide full, unmasked Card numbers to Greensky, to the extent it does receive, store or transmit full, unmasked Card numbers, Greensky agrees to comply and maintain such compliance during the term of the Program with the most current version of the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS), as maintained by the PCI Standards Council. To the extent it receives, stores or transmits full, unmasked Card numbers, Greensky will furnish Comdata annually, or upon Comdata’s written request, with validation, satisfactory to Comdata in its reasonable discretion, of compliance with the PCI-DSS compliance standard.
9. | Lost or Stolen Cards. Greensky agrees to notify Comdata immediately of any loss, theft or unauthorized use of any Card or account. Greensky understands that it is liable for unauthorized use of the Cards and accounts, provided however, that Greensky will not be liable for unauthorized charges that occur after it notifies Comdata of the loss, theft or possible unauthorized use. |
10. | Liability of Acts of Greensky, Customers, Employees and Agents. Greensky agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Comdata from any and all liability resulting from the breach of this Agreement by Greensky, or the acts of any employees or agents of Greensky, Home Depot or any Customers, which acts shall include but are not limited to negligent acts of such persons.

IN NO EVENT SHALL COMDATA BE RESPONSIBLE FOR CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER COMDATA WAS MADE AWARE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. COMDATA MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. |
12. | Relationship Of The Parties. The Parties are independent contractors. No partnership or joint venture is intended to be created by this Agreement, nor any principal-agent or employer-employee relationship. Except to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement, neither Party has, and neither Party shall attempt to assert, the authority to make commitments for or to bind the other Party to any obligation. |

Failure to insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of such term or condition, nor shall any waiver or relinquishment of any right or power hereunder at any time or times be deemed a subsequent waiver or relinquishment of such right or power. The section headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

(iii) Either party may terminate this Agreement in the event of a default in accordance with Section 5.
(c) Effect of Termination. In the event of non-renewal or termination of this Agreement other than a termination by Comdata under subsection b(ii)(2) or (b)(iii) above, Comdata will use commercially reasonable efforts to assist Greensky in transitioning the Program to another provider to avoid disrupting Greensky’s operations and the Program.
2. Section 3(d) of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
(d) Incentive Payments. From the Effective Date through December 31, 2014, Comdata shall provide a monthly incentive payment to Greensky by the 15th of the month in an amount equal to the aggregate net MasterCard merchant interchange, less the “Comdata Keep” basis point amount set forth in the table below based on the monthly Transaction volume.
Monthly Spend | Comdata Keep | |||
Tier 1 | First $[*****] | [*****] basis points | ||
Tier 2 | $[*****] to $[*****] | [*****] basis points | ||
Tier 3 | Over $[*****] | [*****] basis points |
After December 31, 2014 and through the remainder of the initial term, Comdata shall provide a monthly incentive payment to Greensky by the 15th of the month in an amount equal to the aggregate net MasterCard merchant interchange less [*****] basis points.
The incentive is calculated each month on the previous month’s Transactions net of any Transactions charged back or credit losses Comdata suffers as a result of Greensky or its bank partner not providing funding for the Transaction and net of any Transactions processed outside the MasterCard network (“on us” or Comdata Network transactions).

Upon Greensky’s payment to Comdata in an amount equal to the then outstanding and undisputed settled Transactions within the relevant period, Greensky or its assignee shall have the unencumbered right to collect the monies due and owing such transactions for the customers (the “Receivables”) and shall likewise have the right to grant a first priority security interest in, or sell or assign, such Receivables to a third party. In addition, Greensky or its bank partners will calculate the “amount of one day of expected daily funding” and make a security deposit to Comdata’s designated account in the “amount of one day of expected daily funding”. The “amount of one day of expected daily funding” will be the average of the prior month daily settlement calculated as the prior month’s total settled transaction volume divided by twenty-six (26). The initial security deposit shall be made within five (5) days from execution of this Amendment. The calculation shall be updated each month by Greensky, and the deposit will be

adjusted accordingly by no later than the 5th Business Day of each month. Except for Existing Programs and the Consumer Direct Program, Greensky and Comdata will negotiate in good faith regarding the costs for any Cards, welcome kits and shipping costs for additional programs added subsequent of the effective date of this Agreement. Late payments of amounts owed to Comdata are subject to late fees in the maximum amount allowed by law.
4. Section 2 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding new subsection (h) at the end of such section to read as follows:
(h) Volume Commitment and Incentive Payments.

OR $[*****] in aggregate through the current term of the agreement, whichever amount is reached first, at any time between May 1, 2014 and April 30, 2017. During the initial and any renewal Term, Greensky agrees that it shall use the Program exclusively and not use any other third party payment card network or other Member Service Provider in connection with Customers accessing loan proceeds in connection with the Existing Programs.
5. In consideration for the Volume Commitment described above, Comdata will pay to Greensky a signing bonus of $[*****] payable within five (5) days of the execution of this Amendment by Greensky. In the event that Greensky does not fulfill the Volume Commitment, Comdata’s sole remedies shall be:
(a) for Comdata to require Greensky to repay the signing bonus to Comdata on demand as follows:
1) | if Volume for the period between May 1, 2014 and December 31, 2014 is not greater than or equal to $[*****], GreenSky shall repay [*****]% of the signing bonus; | |
2) | if Volume for the period between January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2015 is not greater than or equal to $[*****], GreenSky shall repay [*****]% of the signing bonus; | |
3) | if Volume for the period between January 1, 2016 and December 31, 2016 is not greater than or equal to $[*****], GreenSky shall repay [*****]% of the signing bonus; and | |
4) | if Volume for the period between January 1, 2017 and April 30, 2017 is not greater than or equal to $[*****], GreenSky shall repay [*****]% of the signing bonus; and |
(b) for Comdata to reset the monthly incentive payment to Greensky to an amount equal to the aggregate net MasterCard merchant interchange less [*****] basis points as follows:
1) | if Volume for the period between May 1, 2014 and December 31, 2014 is not greater than or equal to $[*****], GreenSky shall repay any difference between [*****] bps of volume and the amount paid to Comdata during 2014; | |
2) | if Volume for the period between January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2015 is not greater than or equal to $[*****], GreenSky shall repay [*****] bps of Volume in 2015; | |
3) | if Volume for the period between January 1, 2016 and December 31, 2016 is not greater than or equal to $[*****], GreenSky shall repay [*****] bps of Volume in 2016; | |

6. As described in Section 3(c) of the Agreement, Greensky’s bank partners wire funds to Comdata’s designated account for payment. Greensky will make a good faith effort to ensure that its bank partners only wire funds to Comdata for the Programs and do not wire funds that otherwise are owed to Greensky. Comdata will cooperate with Greensky to provide reporting concerning the amount owed in an effort to assist Greensky in obtaining accurate funding from its bank partners.
7. The term “Existing Programs” shall be deemed to include all Programs for which, as of the date of this Amendment, Comdata has submitted a partner business case form to Issuing Bank or that are in effect as of the date of this Amendment.
