Services.  We will provide you with access to our APIs and other Services found on our API Documentation.  You may use these Services to create, edit and view Users, Nodes, and Transactions.  User, Node, and Transaction creation and management are subject to the requirements and limits found in the API Documentation, this Agreement, your Specification Sheet.  You may use these Services selected in your Order Form to integrate the Application(s) listed on the Order Form.

Bank Services.  You understand all bank services are provided to you directly by Evolve Bank & Trust, Member FDIC ("Bank"), or any successor financial institution designated by us from time to time.  Our APIs allow you to easily communicate your requests to the Bank, while we help you and the Bank manage risks and compliance concerns as further detailed in this Agreement.  By using our Services, you grant us the right, power, and authority to act on your behalf to access and transmit your and your Users’ financial information and requests between you, your Users, Bank, and any other financial institutions, as applicable.  You represent and warrant that Users have authorized your use of SynapseFI and Bank services.

Compliance Reviews and Audits.  You agree to submit to security, compliance and risk reviews and audits performed by SynapseFI on behalf of the Bank as further detailed below:

Security-as-a-Service.  SynapseFI will periodically submit your Application Services (e.g.  user interface and associated servers) using our Services to penetration testing ("Penetration Testing") and provide you with a security report of your Application ("Security Report").  Prior to testing, SynapseFI will notify you.  You authorize SynapseFI and its agents to perform Penetration Testing for the Security Reports.  At any time during the penetration tests, you may request we stop the testing by emailing ***@***.  We will perform the Penetration Testing in a responsible and professional manner in accordance with the sector’s best practices and we will use commercially reasonable efforts not to change or amend any applications, data, programs or components of your network or computer system (including hardware and software).  You understand Penetration Testing may expose sensitive or confidential information and may be detrimental to your Application and Application Services.  You understand that SynapseFI does not offer any implied or expressed warranties or guarantees that the Security Report will mean that your Application is secure from every form of attack, as internet security is continually changing.  You are solely responsible for the security of your Application, Application Services, User Data and other Confidential Information, in your possession, or that you are otherwise authorized to access pursuant to Section 2 ("Developer and Integration Requirements").  Bank or SynapseFI may require you to fix such vulnerabilities to continue providing services to you.  You understand your API Keys and other Services may be suspended or revoked due to security concerns.  Additionally, this Agreement and Deposit Agreements may be terminated if such vulnerabilities are not fixed within the time frame set by SynapseFI.  Security Reports are Confidential Information of SynapseFI not for distribution.

Compliance and Risk Audit.  At Bank and SynapseFI's sole discretion, Bank or SynapseFI, its authorized representatives or agents, and any Regulatory Authority (collectively the "Auditing Party"), will have the right to reasonably inspect, audit, and examine all of Platform's facilities, records and personnel, to ensure that Platform is complying with its obligations under the terms of this Agreement, including use of the Services in compliance with Legal Requirements.  Any such inspection shall be conducted during normal business hours upon with at least ten (10) Business Days' prior notice to Platform, unless the circumstances or any Regulatory Authority require less notice.  The Auditing Party will have the right to make abstracts from Platform's books, accounts, data, reports, papers, and computer records directly pertaining to the subject matter of this Agreement, and Platform will make all such facilities, records, personnel, books, accounts, data, reports, papers, and computer records available to the Auditing Party for the purpose of conducting such inspections and audits.  All inspections shall be accomplished pursuant to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement.

Developer and Integration Requirements.

Platform Account.  As part of the registration process to our dashboard, you will create a Platform Account and identify an administrative username and password.  This Platform Account is subject to the Incorporated Agreements, which are incorporated by reference to this Agreement.  You may provide access to your Platform Account to multiple Platform employees or agents.  You are solely responsible for the designation of such users and their privileges (e.g., view only vs. administrative read and write privileges) and any actions or inactions made by these employees and/or agents on your behalf.

Bank Approval.  All Bank services offered to you are subject to Bank’s approval.  Prior to receiving production API keys or otherwise using any Bank services, the Parties will prepare a Specification Sheet for approval by the Bank.  Any updates or modifications to your Specification Sheet must be approved in writing by SynapseFI and Bank prior to implementation by you.

API Keys.  SynapseFI will provide you with separate API Keys for your Platform Account to interact with the API and UAT environment.  Prior to receiving production API Keys, you must submit your Application and related services to a review by SynapseFI.  Your API Keys are Confidential Information (as defined in Section 8 ("Confidentiality")) of SynapseFI.  You are prohibited from selling, transferring, sublicensing, or disclosing your API Keys or other SynapseFI credentials to any third party, other than a service provider performing services on your behalf that has been both disclosed to us in writing and approved by us in writing.  You understand and agree that you are liable for any actions performed using your API Keys, Platform Account credentials or other SynapseFI credentials.  Any access or attempt to access an API must comply with the integration requirements, specifications, and guidelines set out in the API Documentation, as may be updated by SynapseFI from time to time.  You will not misrepresent your identity or your Application’s identity when using the APIs.  SynapseFI may temporarily suspend or revoke your API Keys at any time for breach of this Agreement, breach of the Incorporated Agreements or if SynapseFI believes in our sole discretion that your access to API Keys has been compromised or your use of the Services or Bank services is otherwise a misuse or threat to SynapseFI or Bank.

Security of API Keys.  You are solely responsible for maintaining adequate security and control of any API Keys, Platform Account credentials and any other SynapseFI access credentials issued to you by SynapseFI.  You will encrypt your API Keys in all storage and communication.  For more information about security best practices, see the security recommendations found in the API Documentation.

Compliance.  You agree to integrate and use our APIs in compliance with your Specification Sheet, this Agreement, the Incorporated Agreements, the API Documentation, any other agreements that you have entered into with SynapseFI, and all Legal Requirements.  You are responsible for implementing user controls and transaction limits required by your Specification Sheet approved by Bank.  Your Application must not enable or perform any of the activities prohibited by this Agreement or the agreements listed in the Specification Sheet.  We may require you to modify your API integration and/or user experience if it does not comply with such requirements, or may limit, suspend, or terminate your access to the APIs, upon notice to you.

Reserve Account.  Platform will establish with Bank and will fund a Reserve Account separate from its Deposit Account, to secure your liability to SynapseFI under this Agreement, the Incorporated Agreements, and for any Losses, Expenses, Fees or other obligations.  Platform agrees that the Reserve Account shall be held by Bank on behalf of Platform and subject to the control of SynapseFI and Bank.  Platform shall fund the Reserve Account with the Initial Reserve Amount.  The Initial Reserve Amount may be adjusted by SynapseFI from time to time based on our due diligence and risk assessments or upon request from Bank.  SynapseFI will notify Platform in writing of any change in the Reserve Amount at least three (3) Business Days in advance.  Platform will maintain a minimum balance in the Reserve Account at all times at least equal to the Reserve Amount and will, upon demand or notice from SynapseFI, promptly fund any deficit in immediately available funds.  Platform agrees that failure to timely pay any material amounts due to SynapseFI hereunder and failure to establish or maintain the Reserve Amount is a failure to perform in a material obligation under this Agreement and triggers SynapseFI's right to terminate under Section 11(a)(i)(B), subject to the cure period set forth therein.  If this Agreement is terminated for any reason, the Reserve Amount shall be maintained in the Reserve Account for a period of up to one hundred twenty (120) days from the date of the last Transaction requests by Platform or a User of Platform.  Following this retention period, the Reserve Account will be terminated and the balance in the Reserve Account, if any, shall be paid to Platform within ten (10) Business Days.  Platform shall not at any time grant any security interest in or permit a lien to be placed on the Reserve Account to any person or entity without the prior written consent of SynapseFI.  If requested by SynapseFI, Platform shall grant SynapseFI a security interest in the Reserve Account and provide any other requested documentation in order to perfect such security interest.

Failure by the other Party to observe or perform, in any material respect, that Party’s material obligations to the other Party hereunder, so long as the failure is not due to the actions or failure to act of the terminating Party, but only if the failure continues for a period of (A) thirty (30) days after the non-performing Party receives written notice from the other Party specifying the failure in the case of a failure not involving the payment of money, or (B) ten (10) days after the non-performing Party receives written notice from the other Party specifying the failure in the case of a failure to pay any amount then due hereunder; provided, however, that either Party, in its sole discretion, may terminate this Agreement without such a cure period if a substantially similar material failure has previously occurred on two (2) occasions within the prior twelve (12) months.

Making of a warranty, representation, statement or response in connection with this Agreement that was untrue in any material respect on the date it was made.

The non-terminating Party (A) voluntarily or involuntary (and such involuntary petition or proceeding is not dismissed within sixty (60) days) commences (or is the subject of, as the case may be) any proceeding or filing of any petition seeking relief under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or similar law, (B) applies for or consents to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or similar official for such Party or for a substantial part of its property or assets, (C) makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, (D) commences the winding up or liquidation of its business or affairs, or (E) takes corporate action for the purpose of affecting any of the foregoing.

Certain Services.

In addition to any other remedies available to SynapseFI under this Agreement, Platform agrees that should any material failure occur or should SynapseFI, in its reasonable discretion, or a Regulatory Authority, determine that Platform may be subject to undue risk of intellectual property breach, privacy or security breach, fraud, illegal activity or money laundering, SynapseFI may, with notice, (i) change your Specification Sheet or the Services terms; or (ii) suspend entirely the Services including any aspect or function of the Bank services until SynapseFI, Bank or the Regulatory Authority has had a reasonable opportunity to investigate or resolve such event or activity.

In the event SynapseFI materially modifies the Services under Section 12(g) ("Modifications"), SynapseFI will assist the Platform to ensure an orderly transition for Platform with any affected Users as set forth in accordance with Section 11(c) below.

Effect of Termination and Transition Assistance.

General.  Termination or expiration of this Agreement shall not preclude either Party from pursuing other remedies available to it, including injunctive relief, nor shall such termination or expiration relieve either Party’s obligation to pay all fees or charges that have accrued under this Agreement.

Transition Services.  If this Agreement is terminated for any reason except non-payment of Fees, SynapseFI will provide commercially reasonable efforts to transition Platform and related User Data to a subsequent bank services provider.  Additionally, Platform may have view only access of User Data through the Services for thirty (30) days after termination unless notified otherwise by SynapseFI.

Early Termination Fee.  In the event Platform terminates this Agreement or any applicable addendum for a reason not set forth in subsection (a) above, prior to the end of the Initial Service Term or during any subsequent renewal term, Platform shall be obligated to immediately pay SynapseFI, as liquidated damages for lost profits and not as a penalty, an early termination fee equal to the amount of remaining Term Fees left on the then-current Term.  Such early termination fee shall be presumed to be the amount of damages sustained by SynapseFI as a result of such early termination and Platform agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances.

No Public Statements.  In no event will any parties make any public statement or customer communication regarding the termination or wind-down of this Agreement, or any Bank services without the express prior written approval of SynapseFI, Bank, and Platform, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party may communicate the termination or expiration of this Agreement with Bank, the Users and any other party that Platform has contracted with to provide any marketing or other service with regard to the Bank services, as long as there is nothing in such communications that may disparage, reflect negatively on, or otherwise detrimentally affects the other Party.

Survival.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities of or by either Party contained herein or in any certificate, document or instrument delivered pursuant to the API Documentation, the Incorporated Agreements, or this Agreement, including, but not limited to Section 2(h) ("Costs"), Section 4 ("Privacy and Data Security"), Section 6 ("Fees and Billing") Section 7(d) ("Ownership"), Section 7(e) ("Feedback"), Section 8 ("Confidentiality"), Section 9 ("Losses and Reserves"), Section 10(a) ("Platform Representations and Warranties"), Section 11(c) ("Effect of Termination and Transition Assistance"), and Section 12 ("General Terms") shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Force Majeure.  Except to the extent provided in Section 9 ("Losses and Reserves"), no Party shall be liable to the other Party, nor deemed to have defaulted under or breached this Agreement, for failure to perform or delay in performing its obligations hereunder when and to the extent that such Party’s failure or delay is caused by or results from a Force Majeure Event.  The Party suffering a Force Majeure Event shall give notice to the other Party stating the period of time the occurrence is expected to continue, and shall use all diligent efforts to end the failure or delay and ensure the effects of such Force Majeure Events are minimized.

Taxes.  Each Party is liable for all taxes, duties, levies or tariffs or charges of any kind imposed by any federal, state or local governmental entity with respect to the net income such Party recognizes in connection with the Agreement and, in the case of Platform, the sale of Platform’s services.

Assignment.  Platform may not transfer, assign, or delegate this Agreement or any of its rights, obligations, or duties hereunder.  SynapseFI may transfer or assign this Agreement or any of its rights, obligations, or duties hereunder at any time.

Modifications.  SynapseFI reserves the right to modify from time to time the terms of this Agreement and any Incorporated Agreement upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Platform unless such modifications are to benefit to Platform or relate to new services.  SynapseFI may modify the Services provided hereunder at the request of Bank or otherwise as may be necessary from time to time upon written notice to Platform and Users, as applicable.  In the event Platform reasonably determines such modifications are materially adverse to Platform’s services for Users, Platform may terminate this Agreement by providing SynapseFI notice thereof within thirty (30) days of Platform's receipt of such notice.  Platform shall be deemed to have approved and accepted such modifications unless SynapseFI receives Platform’s written notice of termination within such 30-day period.  No other modifications to this Agreement, and not modification to the Term or Fees payable hereunder, shall be valid unless signed in writing by Platform and SynapseFI.

Independent Contractors.  Platform and SynapseFI are independent entities, and this Agreement does not create any partnership, agency, or employment relationship between Platform and SynapseFI.  Each Party may not attempt to represent, warrant, or obligate the other Party to any commitment with any third party.  You also understand and agree that SynapseFI and Bank are independent contractors with respect to each other in performing their respective obligations under their respective agreements with you and each other.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed, nor shall it cause, SynapseFI and Bank to be treated as partners, joint venturers, or otherwise as joint associates for profit.  Neither SynapseFI nor Bank shall have any liability to you for the performance or nonperformance by, or the actions or omissions of, the other.

No Other Third-Party Rights.  This Agreement is intended for the exclusive benefit of Platform, SynapseFI, and Bank, and is not intended to benefit any third party.

Interpretation.  The Parties agree that the Parties have carefully reviewed this Agreement and that the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities be resolved against the drafting Party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement.  The section headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

Severability.  In the event that any part of this Agreement is deemed by an arbitrator, a court, regulatory authority or other public or private tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed to have been omitted from this Agreement.  The remainder of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and shall be modified to any extent necessary to give such force and effect to the remaining provisions, but only to such extent.

Choice of Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws (excluding conflict of laws rules) of the State of California, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the Parties hereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.

Arbitration.  Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, as well as any extension or modification thereof, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (the "Association"), conducted on a confidential basis, under the then current Commercial Arbitration Rules including the Optional Rules for Emergency Measures of Protection, strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the substantive law of the State of California.  The arbitration shall be held at the regional office of the Association located closest to the principal place of business of SynapseFI and conducted by three arbitrators.  SynapseFI may in its sole discretion elect for the arbitration to be moved to Shelby County, TN in the event a dispute relates to similar subject matter or events of a dispute between Platform and/or User and Bank.  Unless otherwise agreed, the arbitration decision shall be issued within 30 days after the date of closing of the arbitration hearing.  The arbitrators may grant any remedy or relief that could otherwise be awarded under the law.  The award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.  The parties will jointly pay arbitration costs pending a decision by the arbitrators.  The losing party will pay the costs of the arbitration and the reasonable legal fees and expenses of the prevailing party, as determined by the arbitrators.

Platform shall comply with all requirements of all applicable state and federal laws, rules, regulations, and orders of any governmental authority, other than laws, rules, regulations, including, but not limited to, applicable state and/or federal registrations related to its services and Application, which shall require additional risk mitigation and compliance checks and reports to appropriate authorities other than the ones provided herein, which shall be provided exclusively by Platform.

Relationship to Agreement. All terms and conditions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.  In the event of any conflict of this Addendum and the terms and conditions of the Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Addendum shall prevail as related to the subject matter hereunder.

Transaction Services.  As specified in your Order Form, Synapse may provide you with one or more of the following Transaction Services:

ACH.  Synapse shall provide you with Automated Clearing House (“ACH”) services, which shall allow Platform or its Users to transmit debit and credit entries according to the NACHA Operating Rules and Guidelines (“NACHA Rules”).  Details of the ACH Services shall be provided in your Specification Sheet, such as related Nodes and time for processing the requests.

All ACH Services shall be performed in compliance with the NACHA Rules.

Platform acknowledges that it is subject to all obligations of a Third-Party Sender under the NACHA Rules, including any indemnities, covenants, representations or warranties that are required to be made, given or performed by and comply with all the data retention necessary by Third-Party Senders under the NACHA Rules (including the obligation to assume responsibilities of Originating Depository Financial Institution (“ODFI”) and originators under the NACHA Rules).  You will cooperate with Bank and Synapse to complete any required registrations under the NACHA Rules.  Without limiting the foregoing, you shall (a) identify the originator of each Transaction as required by the NACHA Rules; (b) perform the requirements of an ODFI as defined under the NACHA Rules (to the extent you perform any obligations of an ODFI under the Rules); and (c) indemnify Synapse and Bank for any failure to perform such obligations in accordance with the NACHA Rules, subject to the terms and conditions applicable to indemnification under the Agreement.

At your cost and expense, you will retain data on file adequate to permit remaking of Entries for thirty (30) days following the date of their transmittal as provided herein and shall provide such data to Synapse and Bank upon request.  Platform shall obtain all consents and authorizations required under the NACHA Rules and shall retain such consents and authorizations for two (2) years after they expire.  Without limiting the foregoing, Platform is bound by and shall comply with all applicable provisions of the NACHA Rules and other Legal Requirements regarding the retention of documents and records, including, without limitation, the responsibility of Third-Party Senders to retain all items, source documents, and records of authorization, in accordance with the NACHA Rules.

Platform understands that NACHA defines, from time to time, certain thresholds or levels for the Unauthorized Return Rate (returns on the basis that the transaction was unauthorized), the Administrative Return Rate (returns for administrative reasons) and the Overall Return Rate (all returns regardless of the cause).  Platform shall not exceed ninety-five percent (95%) of such thresholds under any circumstances in any given sixty (60) days period.

In the case that Platform reaches or exceeds ninety-five percent (95%) of any of NACHA’s thresholds, as defined in the Section above, Platform shall provide Synapse with a written explanation of the reasons for such return rates and the plan of action to reduce the return rate levels.  In addition, Synapse may take one or more of the following actions: (i) require that Platform's use of the ACH Services be subject to periodic ACH volume limitations; (ii) suspend Platform’s use of all or a portion of the ACH Services until Platform has demonstrated that Platform has a reasonable plan for reducing the respective high return rate level; and/or (iii) adjust Platform’s Initial Reserve Requirement.

In case any of Platform’s return rate reaches any of the thresholds defined by NACHA, Synapse may at any time in its sole discretion cease processing and reject Platform’s entries. Platform agrees that neither Synapse nor Bank shall have any liability to Platform or any other User arising from Bank’s or Synapse’s decision at any time to cease or suspend processing of ACH entries.

Wire Transfer.  Synapse shall provide services to cause wire transfers to be delivered or executed on behalf of Platform User’s in accordance with Platform’s instruction (“Wire Services”), according to the details of your Specification Sheet.

Platform shall be responsible for ensuring all appropriate and necessary authorizations from Users for purposes of providing the Wire Services and for ensuring compliance with all Legal Requirements and Applicable Law.

Platform shall implement a dual-control or a Two-Factor Authentication (“2FA”) for Users to create Wire Transfers, as a Security Procedure as defined below, in order to ensure proper authorization for the transaction.  Platform understands that this authentication should be implemented in addition to any other Security Procedure used by Users to login into their account.

Platform acknowledges that the Wire Services shall be governed by all applicable operating circulars of any Federal Reserve Bank which may handle any request for Wire Services. To the extent allowed by federal law, use of the Wire Services also shall be subject to the operating rules and other governing documents of the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (“SWIFT”) or any other funds transfer or advice service or facilitator, and by the laws of any foreign nation having jurisdiction over the Transaction (or any segment thereof, to the extent of that segment only).

Synapse will not be liable for any loss arising directly or indirectly from its failure to provide Wire Services if a Transaction request would result in violation of any present or future risk control program of the Federal Reserve or any Legal Requirements.

Check.  Synapse shall provide services to allow for your submission of requests for Bank to print, insert and mail checks drawn on funds deposited by your Platform or your Users (“Check Services”).

Platform shall be responsible for ensuring all appropriate and necessary authorizations from Users for purposes of providing the Check Services and for ensuring compliance with all Legal Requirements and Applicable Law.

Platform and/or Users will not be permitted to issue checks unless it has sufficient available funds. In the event a check is returned for insufficient funds, Platform shall be liable for all fees charged therefore. In the event a check is lost or returned as undeliverable for any reason, Platform shall be required to issue a new check and shall be responsible for all fees applicable to such reissuance.

Synapse agrees to comply with the applicable Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (“PCI DSS”) at all times.

Platform shall at all times comply with applicable data privacy and security requirements under the PCI DSS, as they may be amended from time to time, with respect to the use, access, and storage of certain credit card non-public personal information.  If required, Platform shall also register with the appropriate card association.  Synapse and Bank may provide Platform with additional requirements related to Platform’s collection, usage, and storage of the User Data, as may be defined in your Specification Sheet or further notices, if an update is needed.  Platform must provide Synapse with documentation demonstrating Platform’s PCI compliance upon request.  If Synapse is unable to validate Platform’s PCI compliance, Synapse may suspend the Card Processing Services provided herein.

Clearing Account.  The Transaction Services provided herein may be facilitated by Bank via a pooled deposit account, which is owned and controlled by Bank (the "Clearing Account") as specified in your Order Form and detailed in your Specification Sheet.  Such account is not eligible for pass-through FIDC deposit insurance.
