to Terminate.
Either party may elect to terminate this Agreement if: (a) the other party
fails
to cure any material default hereunder within ninety (90) days after receipt
of
written notice from the non-defaulting party, which notice shall specify
the
nature and extent of any such material default (except for a default caused
by
nonpayment by Customer which is addressed in Section 3.3 or for a material
breach of the confidentiality obligations as set forth in Section 9); or
(b) the
other party ceases to do business, makes a composition or assignment for
the
benefit of creditors, becomes bankrupt or insolvent, or is found subject
to any
provisions of the bankruptcy code concerning involuntary bankruptcy or similar
proceeding.
2.2 Method
of Termination.
Exercise of the right to terminate under Section 2.1 must be accomplished
by
written notice (in accordance with Section 17.2) to the defaulting party,
specifying the basis for such termination, and fixing the Termination Date
which
shall be a date following the date of such notice. If either party is
terminating under Section 2.1 (a) above, in which the other party has failed
to
cure a default, such written notice shall allow one hundred eighty (180)
days
following the date of such notice for complete termination of Services unless
otherwise specified in a Schedule. If either party is terminating under Section
2.1 (b) above, no notice of default or cure period is required and such written
notice will allow thirty (30) days following the date of such notice for
complete termination of this Agreement.
2.3 No
Waiver of Default.
The
failure of either party to exercise any right of termination hereunder shall
not
constitute a waiver of the rights granted herein with respect to any subsequent
default.
2.4 Extended
Services.
Any
services that are provided to Customer after the expiration or termination
of
this Agreement, for which a written agreement has not been entered into by
the
parties, shall be provided by Fidelity on a month-to-month basis subject
to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement, except that the fees for such services
shall be one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of Fidelity’s then-current
standard fees.
2.5 Liquidated
Damages.
If this
Agreement is terminated by Customer for any reason other than as permitted
under
Section 2.1, Customer shall pay to Fidelity, as liquidated damages and in
addition to all unpaid amounts due and owing to Fidelity under this Agreement
from the Effective Date up to and including the Termination Date, (i) a fee
equal to the remaining fees due under this Agreement from the day immediately
following the Termination Date through the end of the Term or then current
Renewal Term had the termination not occurred; (ii) with respect to any
transaction-based services, an amount equal to the average of all
transaction-based fees paid by Customer on average per month during the six
(6)
month period immediately preceding the Termination Date, multiplied by the
number of months remaining in the Term or the then current Renewal Term;
(iii)
any termination and shutdown costs incurred by Fidelity; and
(iv)
the
then net book value of all software and hardware acquired by Fidelity to
perform
the Services hereunder on Customer’s behalf during the Term or any Renewal Term,
if any.
No
refund of fees shall be made to Customer. Termination and shutdown costs
may
include, but are not necessarily limited to: costs actually incurred by Fidelity
to cancel leases, licenses, subcontractor or other similar agreements, and
costs
associated with termination and/or relocation of dedicated resources. Fidelity
shall use its reasonable efforts to mitigate the termination and shutdown
costs.
2.6 Date
Fees are Payable.
All known fees described in this Section 2 are due and payable prior to the
earlier of (a) sixty (60) days prior to the Termination Date or (b) the release
of any data in Fidelity’s possession to Customer. Any fees not known as of the
date notice is given will be invoiced to Customer as they are incurred by
Fidelity. Furthermore, in addition to the fees described in this Section
2,
Customer shall continue to make all payments due and payable to Fidelity
pursuant to this Agreement for any Services rendered through the Termination
Date. The fees described in this Section 2 are exclusive of any fees associated
with deconversion.
2.7 Return
of Fidelity
Data. Upon termination of these General Terms or any
Schedule attached hereto, Customer will, at its expense, promptly return
to
Fidelity or destroy all copies of written or electronic materials, maintenance
and policy manuals and other publications of Fidelity relating to the Services
being so terminated (collectively "Copies"). Customer will destroy all Copies
contained on any hard drive or other fixed medium of storage. Within sixty
(60)
days from the date of termination of these General Terms or any Schedule
attached hereto, an officer of Customer will certify in writing to Fidelity
that
Customer has complied with all requirements of this Section.
3. FEES
AND EXPENSES
3.1 Fees
Payable to
Fidelity. The fees payable pursuant to this Agreement are set forth in the
Schedule and/or Attachment, shall be paid in U.S. Dollars, and shall be due
to
Fidelity within thirty (30) days of date of invoice, except as set forth
in
Section 2. Customer shall also pay to Fidelity any pass-through costs, fees
and
charges imposed upon Fidelity related to the Services provided hereunder.
All
payments due to Fidelity hereunder shall, unless otherwise indicated, be
mailed
to Fidelity at the remittance address on the invoice. If mutually agreed
between
the parties, Customer may alternatively make all payments under this Agreement
by wire transfer or ACH of immediately available U.S. funds to an account
or
accounts designated by Fidelity. In the event that the due date of any payment
is not a day upon which banks are open in the United States, then the due
date
of the payment shall be the next bank business day. Any amount not received
by
Fidelity within fifteen (15) days after the payment due date shall be subject
to
interest on the balance overdue at a rate equal to the lesser of: (i) the
prime
rate plus two percent (2%) per annum, as published in the Wall Street Journal
on
the first Monday (or next bank business day) following the payment due date;
or
(ii) the highest rate permitted by law, in each case for the number of days
from
payment due date up to and including the date payment is actually received
by
Fidelity. However, if any amount is not paid when due, Fidelity may, at its
option, immediately suspend performance hereunder until payment is made,
in
addition to any other rights or remedies provided to Fidelity by this Agreement
or applicable law.
3.2 Disputed
Charges.
Should
Customer dispute in good faith all or a portion of the amount due on any
invoice
or require any adjustment to an invoiced amount, Customer shall notify Fidelity
in writing prior to the payment due date, of the nature and basis of the
dispute
and/or adjustment as soon as possible using the dispute resolution procedures
set forth in Section 16 of this Agreement. Each party shall use its reasonable
efforts to resolve the dispute prior to the payment due date. If the parties
are
unable to resolve the dispute prior to the payment due date, Customer shall
nevertheless pay the entire amount to Fidelity by the due date. If it is
ultimately determined that Customer should not have paid such amount to
Fidelity, Fidelity shall credit this amount, plus interest in accordance
with
Section 16.1 of this Agreement on Customer’s next invoice.
3.3 Monetary
Default.
Failure to pay any amount due under this Agreement, excluding disputed charges
described in Section 3.2, within thirty (30) days of the date of invoice
shall
be deemed a monetary default (“Monetary Default”). In the event such Monetary
Default is not cured within seven (7) business days after written notice
is
provided to Customer from Fidelity, then Fidelity may suspend or cancel
Customer’s use of or access to the Services relating to the Monetary Default and
may terminate this Agreement and pursue any and all other rights in law or
equity that Fidelity may have. In addition to the foregoing, in the event
that
two (2) monetary defaults occur within any six (6) month period, Fidelity,
at
its sole discretion, may change the payment terms (including, but not limited
to, requiring payment by wire, or requiring payment in advance of Fidelity
providing or delivering such Services).
3.4 Adjustment
of Fees. The
recurring fees, as outlined in the Schedule(s) and/or Attachment(s) (non-pass
through and non-one-time fees) shall be adjusted annually on the Adjustment
Date. Fees shall be increased, but not decreased, by the percentage increase
in
the CPI-U for the month of December preceding the Adjustment Date over the
CPI-U
for the month of December in the immediately preceding year. If additional
products and/or services are added to the Agreement, the fees for such
additional products or services shall be adjusted on such Adjustment Date
in
accordance with this Section. In the event the CPI-U is unavailable in time
to
allow the adjustment to be made on the Adjustment Date, Customer shall continue
to pay the then-current fees for the Services until the CPI-U is made public,
at
which time the adjustment shall be calculated retroactively to the Adjustment
Date, and Customer shall immediately pay to Fidelity any difference between
the
fees actually paid and adjusted fees. The adjustments shall be compounded
and
cumulative. In the event the CPI-U is discontinued or revised during the
Initial
Term or any Renewal Term, Fidelity shall select another governmental index
or
computation as a substitute for the CPI-U in order to obtain substantially
the
same result as if the CPI-U had not been discontinued or revised. Fidelity
reserves the right to adjust at any time, pass-through costs, fees and charges,
outside its control.
3.5 Payment
of One-Time
Fees. Except as may be specifically stated in a Schedule and/or Attachment
or otherwise mutually agreed by the parties in writing, Customer shall pay
all
one-time fees in the following manner: fifty percent (50%) upon Customer’s
signing of this Agreement and/or as set forth in the Schedule(s), as applicable,
and the remaining fifty percent (50%) on the Commencement Date.
3.6 Payment
of Recurring
Fees. Fidelity will commence invoicing Customer for
the recurring fees set forth in the Schedule and/or Attachment on the
Commencement Date and Customer shall pay such fees as invoiced.
3.7 Travel
and Expenses.
Customer shall reimburse Fidelity for all reasonable travel and expenses
related
to the performance of any Services provided by Fidelity that require Fidelity
personnel to travel.
3.8 Mergers
and
Acquisitions. At Customer’s request and subject to Section 17.11, Fidelity
will provide additional licenses, process additional data and perform additional
Services resulting from any merger, acquisition, affiliation or restructuring
(regardless of form) involving Customer for fees to be mutually agreed upon
prior to the time Customer begins using the Software or Services in the expanded
environment.
4. TAXES
All
charges and fees to be paid by Customer under this Agreement are exclusive
of
any applicable withholding, sales, use, value added, excise, services or
other
United States or foreign tax which may be assessed on the provision of the
Services. In the event that a withholding, sales, use, value added, excise,
services or other United States or foreign tax is assessed on the provision
of
any of the Services provided to Customer under this Agreement, Customer will
pay
directly, reimburse or indemnify Fidelity for such taxes, as well as any
applicable interest, penalties and other Fidelity fees and expenses. The
parties
will cooperate with each other in determining the extent to which any tax
is due
and owing under the circumstances, and shall provide and make available to
each
other any resale certificates, information regarding out-of-state or country
use
of materials, services or sale, and other exemption certificates or information
reasonably requested by either party. Customer shall not be liable for payment
of any taxes based on Fidelity’s net income.
5. FORCE
MAJEURE
Fidelity
shall not be liable for any loss, expense, error or delay, including but
not
limited to delays in processing of data or delivery of output or items to
Customer, or any inability to provide Services hereunder, from any cause
beyond
its reasonable control and without its fault or negligence, including, but
not
limited to, acts of God, acts of civil or military authority, government
regulations, government agencies, delay or failure to receive any required
government approvals, embargoes, epidemics, war, terrorist acts, riots,
insurrections, fires, explosions, earthquakes, nuclear accidents, floods,
power
blackouts affecting facilities, unusually severe weather conditions, inability
to secure products or services of other persons or transportation facilities,
or
acts or omissions of transportation carriers or omissions of third parties
(including but not limited to acts or omissions of any third party service
provider or equipment vendor, messenger service or telephone carrier). Upon
the
occurrence of a condition described in this Section 5, Fidelity shall give
written notice to Customer describing the affected area of performance, and
the
parties shall promptly confer, in good faith, to agree upon equitable,
reasonable action to minimize the impact, on both parties, of such condition,
including, without limitation, implementing disaster recovery services. Fidelity
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the delay caused by
force
majeure events and recommence the performance of Services affected by the
force
majeure event. In the event the delay caused by the force majeure event lasts
for a period of more than thirty (30) days, the parties shall negotiate an
equitable modification to this Agreement with respect to the Services affected
by the force majeure event. If the parties are unable to agree upon an equitable
modification within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of such thirty
(30)
day period, then Customer shall be entitled to serve thirty (30) days’ written
notice of termination to Fidelity. If the force majeure event continues to
affect performance of Services on the expiration of such thirty (30) day
notice
period, the portion of this Agreement relating to the affected Service shall,
at
Customer’s option, terminate. The remaining portion of this Agreement that does
not involve the affected Service shall continue in full force and effect.
In
such event Fidelity shall be entitled to be paid for that portion of the
affected Service that Fidelity has completed or is in the process of completing
through the Termination Date.
6. EXCLUSIONS
AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
As
a
condition precedent to any liability of Fidelity, Customer must notify Fidelity
in writing of any alleged negligence or breach of this Agreement as promptly
as
reasonably possible, but in no event later than five (5) business days following
the day on which such alleged negligence or breach was, or could reasonably
have
been, discovered by Customer. FIDELITY’S LIABILITY, IF ANY, FOR ANY CLAIM, CAUSE
OF ACTION OR LIABILITY WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE ARISING
UNDER OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
TO
LIABILITY FOR PROCESSING ERRORS OR NEGLIGENCE, SHALL BE LIMITED TO (I)

EXCEED FIDELITY’S CHARGES DURING THE SIX (6) MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING

WHICH
CUSTOMER’S CLAIM PERTAINS OR (II) THE FINANCIAL REMEDIES SPECIFIED IN ANY
SCHEDULE, IF APPLICABLE, WHICHEVER IS LESS. ALL DAMAGES SHALL BE REDUCED
BY ANY
AMOUNT RECEIVED BY CUSTOMER UNDER ANY INSURANCE POLICY COVERING THE EVENT
GIVING
RISE TO THE LIABILITY. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, IN NO EVENT SHALL FIDELITY
BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, CLAIMS FOR

LIABILITY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WHETHER ARISING UNDER CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE

based
upon the Customer-provided software furnished hereunder by Customer, if any.

impact

is
or becomes publicly known through no wrongful act, fault or negligence

or
copies shown to any third parties (exclusive of contractors, subcontractors
and
agents who have a need for it) without the prior written consent of the other
party, except as may be necessary by reason of legal, accounting, tax or
regulatory requirements, in which event Customer and Fidelity shall exercise

measures requested by Customer. Fidelity shall disclose to Customer any breach
in security of its systems which compromises, or is reasonably likely to
compromise, Customer’s Confidential Information following discovery or

RESOLUTION
16.1 Dispute
Resolution
Procedures. In the event a dispute arises between Fidelity and Customer with
respect to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, or any subject matter
governed by this Agreement, such dispute shall be settled as set forth in
this
Section. In the event that a party initiates the dispute resolution procedures
in accordance with this Section, then during such procedure any time periods
providing for termination of the Agreement or curing any material breach
under
Section 2 shall be automatically suspended, except with respect to any
termination or breach arising out of Customer’s failure to make timely and
complete payments to Fidelity under this Agreement. At such time as the dispute

on the basis of the actual days in the applicable calendar year) for the
period
of dispute shall be paid to the party entitled to receive the disputed monies
to
compensate for the lapsed time between the date such disputed amount originally
was to have been paid (or was paid) through the date monies are paid (or
credited) in settlement of the dispute.
16.2 Claims
Procedures.
If any
party shall have any dispute with respect to the terms and conditions of
this
Agreement, or any subject matter referred to in or governed by this Agreement,
that party (through the Fidelity Account Manager or the Customer Account
Manager, as the case may be) shall provide written notification to the other
party (through the Fidelity Account Manager or the Customer Account Manager,
as
the case may be) in the form of a claim identifying the issue or amount
disputed, if applicable, and including a detailed reason for the claim. The
party against whom the claim is made shall respond in writing to the claim
within thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of the claim document. The
party filing the claim shall have an additional thirty (30) days after the
receipt of the response to either accept the resolution offered by the other
party or request implementation of the Escalation Procedures. Failure to
meet
the time limitations set forth in this Section shall automatically result
in the
implementation of the Escalation Procedures.
16.3 Escalation
Procedures
(a) Each
of
the parties will negotiate, in good faith, any claim or dispute that has
not
been satisfactorily resolved following the claim resolution procedures described
in Section 16.2. To this end, each party will escalate any and all unresolved
disputes or claims in accordance with Section 16.3(b)
before
taking further action.
(b) If
the negotiations conducted pursuant
to Section 16.2 do not lead to resolution of the underlying dispute or claim
to
the satisfaction of the parties, then either party may notify the other in
writing that it desires to escalate the dispute or claim to the individual
executives on the other party’s staffs who are responsible for operations for
resolution (“Executives”). Upon receipt by the other party of such written
notice, the dispute or claim shall be so escalated and the Executives shall
negotiate in good faith and each use their reasonable efforts to resolve
such
dispute or claim. The location, format, frequency, duration and conclusion
of
these escalated discussions shall be left to the discretion of the Executives
involved. Upon agreement, the Executives may utilize other alternative dispute
resolution procedures to assist in the negotiations. Discussions and
correspondence among the Executives for purposes of these negotiations shall
be
treated as confidential information developed for purposes of settlement,
exempt
from discovery and production, and shall not be admissible in subsequent
proceedings between the parties. Documents identified in or provided with
such
communications, which are not prepared for purposes of the negotiations,
are not
so exempted and may, if otherwise admissible, be admitted in evidence in
such
subsequent proceeding.
16.4 Arbitration
Procedures. In the event that a claim, controversy or dispute between the
parties with respect to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, or any
subject matter governed by this Agreement, which is subject to arbitration
hereunder has not been resolved by use of the claims procedures described
in
Section 16.2 or the Escalation Procedures described in Section 16.3, either
party may, within thirty (30) days after the Executives have met to address
such
claims, controversy or dispute, request binding arbitration of the issue
in
accordance with the following procedures:
(a) Either
party may request arbitration by giving the other party written notice to
such
effect, which notice shall describe, in reasonable detail, the nature of
the
dispute, controversy or claim. The Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American
Arbitration Association, 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, X.X., Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxxxx,
X.X. 00000 ("AAA") will govern any such arbitration.
(b) Upon
either party's request for arbitration, an arbitrator shall be selected by
mutual agreement of the parties to hear the dispute in accordance with AAA
rules. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator, then either
party
may request that the AAA select an arbitrator and such arbitrator shall hear
the
dispute in accordance with AAA rules. The arbitration shall be held in Orlando,
Florida.
(c) Each
of
the parties shall bear its own fees, costs and expenses of the arbitration
and
its own legal expenses, attorneys' fees and costs of all experts and witnesses.
Unless the award provides otherwise, the parties will share equally the fees
and
expenses of the arbitration procedures, including the fees of the
arbitrator(s).
(d) Any
award
rendered pursuant to such arbitration shall be final, conclusive and binding
upon the parties, and any judgment thereon may be entered and enforced in
any
court of competent jurisdiction.
(e) Notwithstanding
the provisions of this Section 16, the parties to this Agreement agree that
the
only circumstance in which disputes between them will not be subject to the
provisions of this Section exists when: i) a party defaults under the provisions
of Section 9 of this Agreement; or ii) a party makes a good faith determination
that a breach of the terms of this Agreement by the other party is such that
the
damages to such party resulting therefrom will be so immediate, so large
or
severe and so incapable of adequate redress after the fact that a temporary
restraining order and/or other immediate injunctive relief is the only adequate
remedy for such breach. If a party making such a determination files a pleading
with a court seeking such immediate injunctive relief and this pleading is
challenged by the other party to this Agreement and the challenging party
succeeds in such challenge, the party filing such pleading seeking immediate
injunctive relief shall pay all of the costs and attorneys' fees of the party
successfully challenging such pleading.
16.5 Claim
Expiration.
No
claims to be resolved under this Section 16 may be made more than six (6)
months
after the date by which the fault or failure was or should reasonably have
been
discovered; failure to make such a claim within the six (6) month period
shall
forever bar the claim.

prior oral and written agreements, statements and understandings between

and
are not intended to be exclusive of other remedies to which the injured party
may be entitled by law or equity in the case of any breach or threatened
breach
by the other party of any provision of this Agreement. Use of one or more
remedies shall not bar the use of any other remedy for the purpose of enforcing
any provision of this Agreement.

consult with each other in preparing any Press Release that mentions or implies
a relationship or names the other party in any way. Neither party shall issue

of a

the
nature of the deficiency. Within 15 days of receipt of such notice, Fidelity

shall have 30 days to bring its performance to the percentage/standard specified
in the relevant service performance standard. Fidelity shall report the nature
and status of its efforts at the end of such period. Should Fidelity’s
performance remain below the applicable standard after such 30-day period,

the
affected performance up to the standard. During this period, Customer will
be
provided with a 15% reduction in the monthly Fidelity invoice for each month

Should

If,
as part of the EFT Services provided by Fidelity to Customer
hereunder,
Customer instructs Fidelity to provide Customer with access to
networks
maintained by Fidelity and/or third parties, Customer shall comply
with
the rules, regulations, procedures, fees, assessments, penalties
and other
membership duties, obligations and costs of such networks then
in effect,
which are applicable to Customer. Fidelity’s ability to provide the
network related services is contingent upon Customer obtaining
financial
institution sponsorship into the shared transaction network(s)
in which
Customer wishes to participate. Fidelity shall only render network
related
services concurrently with network sponsorship. Customer and/or
its agents
shall provide proof of sponsorship to Fidelity by providing a
copy of the
executed agreement between Customer and each network
sponsor.
|
9.2
|
Customer
will comply with all Fidelity and third party network rules,
regulations,
procedures and pay all costs which Fidelity may incur in providing
Services to Customer.
|
9.3
|
Fidelity
may, upon receipt of written instructions from any network to
which
Fidelity is providing access hereunder, including without limitation
a
network owned and/or operated by the Fidelity, immediately cease
to
provide to Customer, including Customer's customers, access to
such
network. Fidelity shall use its reasonable efforts to promptly
notify
Customer of such interruption in network access. Customer shall
indemnify
and hold Fidelity harmless from any claims, liabilities or losses,
including cost and attorney's fees, resulting from Fidelity’s compliance
with the written instructions of any
network.
|
9.4
|
Customer
shall indemnify and hold Fidelity harmless from any claims, liabilities
or
losses, including costs and attorneys' fees, resulting from (i)
transactions effected with lost, stolen, counterfeit or misused
Access
Cards issued by, or on behalf of, Customer to allow customers
of Customer
to access the EFT Services, and/or (ii) actions, omissions or
commissions
of Customer's agents and third party host processors relating
to the EFT
Services provided that the indemnity provided for in this paragraph
shall
not be applicable to losses caused by the gross negligence or
willful
misconduct of Fidelity.
|
10. AUTHORIZATION
OF TRANSACTION REQUESTS
A
shared
network interface service allows Customers’ cardholders to access their accounts
through third party terminals which are connected to the shared network,
and
allows third party customers access to their accounts with other institutions
through Customer’s terminals. Transaction authorization requests are received
from the shared network switch by Fidelity for authorization approval.
Fidelity
shall authorize transactions based on one (1) of the following options
at
Customer’s discretion: (i) positive balance file, for which Fidelity will
maintain a record containing certain balance information and authorization
limits for each of Customer’s cardholders, which is updated on a frequency
defined by Customer (usually daily) through a file transmission, (ii) host
authorization interface, for which Fidelity will maintain a host to host
interface between the Fidelity EFT System and Customer’s system, which provides
for the routing of foreign transaction requests at the Customer’s terminals to
the appropriate network for disposition as well as the routing of Customer’s
cardholder requests at network terminals to Customer’s system for authorization,
or (iii) parameter file authorization for which Fidelity will maintain
a
cardholder file and authorize transactions based on a limit defined by
Customer
for a specified period of time. Regardless of the option chosen by Customer,
Fidelity will provide Customer with a daily data file of authorized transactions
in ACH format and the appropriate settlement reports.
11. WARRANTY
REGARDING EFT SERVICES
11.1
|
Fidelity
assumes no liability arising from claims as a result of the unavailability
of the EFT Services provided by third
parties.
|
11.2
|
Stand-in
processing occurs when the direct processor (Fidelity) or the
indirect
processor (Customer) does not respond to an authorization. Stand-in
limits
are to be defined by Customer, as appropriate. While Fidelity
will use
commercially reasonable efforts to respond to all authorizations
in the
allotted time-frame, in no event shall Fidelity be liable for
any losses
associated with transactions authorized as a result of such stand-in
processing.
|
12.
|
LAWS
AND GOVERNMENTAL
REGULATIONS
|
12.1
|
Customer
shall be responsible for compliance with all applicable laws
and
governmental regulations related to the EFT
Services.

12.2
|
If,

shall be
required by law or by any governmental regulatory authority having
authority over the business of Customer, except to the extent
such changes
may be beyond the capability of the Fidelity’s ATM network and/or the
Customer equipment to implement, Fidelity shall modify the EFT
Services to
be in compliance with such new laws or governmental regulations.
Fidelity
may, at its discretion, pass on in whole or in part on an equitable
basis
to all similarly situated users, the costs of making any such
modification
to the EFT Services.

or
assigns for the same or similar services as those described in this
Schedule.
1. FEES
Customer
agrees to pay to Fidelity the Fees as set forth in Attachment

In
the event Fidelity deems it appropriate to discontinue, prior
to shipment,
any specific item of Equipment listed on any Attachment, including
Attachment 3, Fidelity shall not be in default of this Agreement
provided
Fidelity offers Customer substitute Equipment capable of equal
or better
performance. In the event that the price of such substitute

|
4. DELIVERY,
SECURITY INTEREST, AND RISK OF LOSS OR DAMAGE
4.1
|
Delivery.
Customer agrees to pay or reimburse Fidelity for all costs
of shipping
Equipment to Customer, including freight, insurance and special
packaging
charges in connection with delivery. The means of shipment
of the
Equipment shall be in Fidelity's discretion and shipment may
be made in
installments unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing prior
to
shipment. Any delivery dates quoted by Fidelity are estimates
only and are
subject to availability and delivery from the respective manufacturers
of
the Equipment. Fidelity shall not be responsible for any delay
attributable to any manufacturer or other third party.
|
4.2
|
Security
Interest.
Fidelity retains a purchase money security interest in each
piece of
Equipment until payment in full is received. Fidelity may file
a copy of
this Agreement with appropriate authorities at any time after
signature by
Customer as a financing statement and/or chattel mortgage in
order to
perfect such security interest. Customer agrees to execute
any financing
statements and other instruments requested by Fidelity to perfect
such
security interest. Customer shall not sell, exchange, lease,
encumber or
pledge the Equipment or grant or permit the creation or attachment
of any
other security interest therein without Fidelity's prior written
consent.
Until the purchase price for each piece of Equipment is paid
in full,
Customer, at its sole cost and expense, shall acquire and maintain
adequate insurance to cover the unpaid portion of the purchase
price.
Coverage shall include, but not be limited to, fire, extended
coverage,
vandalism, malicious mischief and other coverage reasonably
required by
Fidelity. In the event of any loss, damage or destruction to
the Equipment
while any portion of the purchase price remains unpaid, Customer
shall pay
the remaining unpaid portion of the purchase price from the
insurance
proceeds.
|

represents and warrants that it is acquiring the Equipment
for its own

Risk of loss or damage for all Equipment and title to all Equipment
shall
pass to Customer upon delivery by Fidelity to the first common
carrier at
Fidelity's facility, or at the manufacturer's facility if shipped
directly
from the manufacturer, or upon delivery to Customer should
Customer elect
to pick up the Equipment.
|
5. WARRANTIES
It
is
understood and mutually agreed that Equipment purchased by Customer from
Fidelity hereunder is manufactured by companies other than Fidelity,
and
therefore Fidelity makes no warranty, express or implied, on any such
Equipment.
Customer accepts as the sole warranty on any Equipment, the warranty
used or
made by the manufacturer of such Equipment. Fidelity does warrant to
Customer
that any Equipment installed by Fidelity will be properly installed in
accordance with the manufacturer's installation instructions. Fidelity
does not
extend to Customer any other warranty on or pertaining to the
Equipment. EXCEPT
AS

3.1
|
Customer
hereby engages Fidelity to provide Fraud Detection Services to Customer
and its Cardholders. Using its Neural Network, Fidelity will use
commercially reasonable efforts to identify potential fraudulent
Debit
Card transactions.
|
3.2
|
When
the Neural Network detects a potentially fraudulent transaction,
Fidelity
may decline the transaction, place a “hold” on the Debit Card to prevent
any further transactions, and/or promptly contact by telephone either
the
Cardholder or an individual designated by the Customer. Customer
hereby
authorizes Fidelity to decline Debit Card transactions that appear
suspicious in Fidelity’s sole discretion and to contact the Cardholder to
confirm transaction activity as deemed appropriate in Fidelity’s sole
discretion.
|
3.3
|
Fidelity
shall operate the Neural Network twenty-four (24) hours per day,
seven (7)
days per week (except for certain down times as described in Section
3.6).
Fidelity’s call center shall operate from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., seven
(7) days per week. Customer acknowledges that potential fraudulent
transactions detected by the Neural Network during hours when the
call
center is closed will be addressed when the call center
reopens.
|
3.4
|
Only
Debit Cards issued by Customer are eligible for Fraud Detection Services.
Fidelity will not provide Fraud Detection Services for any other
payment
cards, including, but not limited to, financial institution branded
automated teller machine (ATM)
cards.
|
3.5
|
Customer
understands that the Fraud Detection Services are intended to detect
and
prevent potential fraudulent Debit Card activity. However, Customer
acknowledges that (a) no fraud detection tool is one hundred percent
accurate, and (b) it is likely that some fraudulent transactions
will go
undetected by the Neural Network and that some non-fraudulent transactions
may be scored as potential fraud and declined.
|
3.6
|
Customer
understands that the Neural Network occasionally may be unavailable
for
short periods of time due to maintenance, enhancements, upgrades
and
similar activities. Although Fidelity will use commercially reasonable
efforts to keep these periods of unavailability as short as reasonably
possible, Customer acknowledges that fraudulent transactions may
occur
during these periods.
|
4. RESPONSIBILITIES
OF CUSTOMER
Fidelity’s
obligation to provide Fraud Detection Services shall be contingent
upon
Customer’s compliance with the
following:
|
4.1
|
Customer
will use its best efforts to keep current on Fidelity’s database all
information regarding Cardholders issued by Customer, including,
but not
limited to, each Cardholder’s date of birth, day and evening telephone
numbers, address and Social Security
number.
|
4.2
|
Customer
agrees to use reasonable efforts to contact its Cardholders regarding
potentially fraudulent Debit Cards and shall provide Fidelity with
any
information obtained from a Cardholder regarding such Debit Cards.
|
5. EXCLUSIONS
Fidelity
disclaims all liability to Customer for, and Customer shall indemnify
and
hold Fidelity harmless from, any and all demands, claims, actions,
losses,
damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses, including reasonable fees
and
expenses of counsel, arising in connection with any of the
following:
|
5.1
|
Any
occurrence of fraud in connection with a Debit Card (unless Customer
elects the Fraud Indemnification option described in Section 7 of
this
Exhibit);
|
5.2
|
Neural
Network system downtime for maintenance, enhancements, upgrades,
and
similar activities;
|
5.3
|
The
application of a low risk score when a transaction was actually
fraudulent;
|
5.4
|
The
application of a high risk score which results in blocking use of
a Debit
Card which is not involved in fraudulent
activity;
|
5.5
|
Any
failure by Fidelity to decline a fraudulent transaction or to notify
Customer or Cardholder of a fraudulent
transaction;
|
5.6
|
Any
decline of a non-fraudulent transaction;
or
|
5.7
|
A
Cardholder’s inability to use his or her Debit Card due to Fidelity
placing a temporary restriction on a Debit Card which Fidelity determines
to be potentially fraudulent.
|
6. FRAUD
DETECTION SERVICE FEES
Fees
for Fraud Detection Services will be waived for any month during
the term
of this Exhibit in which Customer maintains a Penetration Rate
(“Penetration Rate”) of ninety percent (90%) or greater. Penetration Rate
for each month hereunder is calculated on the last day of such month
by
dividing the number of Debit Card records (x) by the sum of (x) and
the
number of self-branded automated teller machine (ATM) card records
(y)
(e.g. Penetration Rate = ( x / (x+y) ). Customer has ninety (90)
days from
the Effective Date of this Exhibit to reach the Penetration Rate
described
above. Following that initial ninety (90) day period, during any
month
that the Penetration Rate is less than ninety percent (90%), Customer
will
pay monitoring fees to Fidelity in an amount set forth on Attachment
4.
|
7. OPTIONAL
FRAUD INDEMNIFICATION SERVICES
7.1
|
In
addition to Fraud Detection Services, Customer may also contract
with
Fidelity for Fraud Indemnification. If Customer chooses this option,
Fidelity will indemnify Customer against any fraud loss sustained
by
Customer (other than an Excluded Loss, as defined below) due to any
Debit
Card transaction by an unauthorized person who uses (a) any lost
or stolen
Debit Card or Debit Card number or (b) any counterfeit Debit Card
or Debit
Card number purportedly issued by Customer, provided, however, that
Customer shall be responsible for the initial fifty dollars ($50.00)
of
any loss applicable to a Debit Card
number.
|
7.2
|
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Fidelity will not indemnify Customer for any of the
following losses (each of which shall be an Excluded
Loss):
|
7.2.1
|
Losses
due to the Cardholder’s attempt to commit fraud against
Customer;
|
7.2.2
|
Losses
for which the Cardholder has disclosed the Personal Identification
Number
or “PIN” to any other party, including, but not limited to, disclosure by
writing the PIN on or near the
card;
|
7.2.3
|
Losses
for which the Cardholder has disclosed the 3-D Secure password to
any
other party, including but not limited to, disclosure by writing
the 3-D
Secure password on or near the
card;
|
7.2.4
|
Losses
due to any action or omission of any employee or agent of
Customer;
|
7.2.5
|
Losses
due to disputed transactions between Customer, Cardholder, and merchant,
such as lack of service, non-receipt, duplicate postings, and differences
in posting amount and receipt;
|
7.2.6
|
Losses
resulting from lost interest, bank fees, returned check fees, overdraft
fees, or any other charge incurred by a Cardholder due to reductions
in an
account’s available balance as a result of a fraudulent
transaction;
|
7.2.7
|
Losses
above Fidelity’s then-current guidelines for daily point-of-sale maximum
amount. As of the date of this Exhibit, such amount is one thousand
two
hundred dollars ($1,200.00). Fidelity reserves the right to increase
or
decrease this amount at any time and will provide Customer written
notice
thereof. In the event that Customer raises any Cardholder’s limit above
that amount, Customer shall be responsible for any losses incurred
over
that daily limit; or
|
7.2.8
|
Losses
that result from any cards which are not Debit Cards, including Customer’s
original issue of automated teller machine (ATM)
cards.
|
8. CUSTOMER

8.1
|
The
Fraud Indemnification provided by Fidelity is conditioned upon Customer

provide reasonable assistance and cooperation to enable Fidelity
to

occurrence.
|
8.2
|
Customer

the investigation of any occurrence for which Customer is making
a claim
hereunder. Further, Customer agrees to use best efforts to obtain

of
involvement in the occurrence and his or her willingness to assist
in any
investigation and legal action relating
thereto.
|
8.3
|
Within
twenty-four (24) hours of receiving notice from a Cardholder that
a Debit
Card has been lost, stolen or compromised, Customer shall report

for
such period of time as is necessary (recommended minimum of 6 months)
to

pay all
charges and costs incurred for inclusion of the Debit Card on the
