Acquirer will provide Merchant with certain payment processing services (“Services”) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In consideration of Merchant’s receipt of credit or debit card funded payments, and participation in programs affiliated with MasterCard International Inc. ("MasterCard"), VISA U.S.A. Inc. ("VISA"), Discover (“Discover”), and certain similar entities (collectively, “Associations), Merchant is required to comply with the Operating Regulations (defined below) as they pertain to applicable credit and debit card payments.

By executing this Agreement, Merchant has fulfilled such requirement. However, Acquirer understands that Merchant may have contracted with Toast to obtain certain processing services and that Toast may have agreed to be responsible to Merchant for all or part of Merchant’s obligations contained herein. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and of the mutual promises contained herein, the parties agree as follows: 

1. Certain Merchant Responsibilities. Merchant agrees to comply, and to cause third parties acting as Merchant’s agent (“Agents”) to comply, with the Association’s and other payment network’s by-laws, operating regulations and/or all other rules, policies and procedures, including but not limited to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, the VISA Cardholder Information Security Program, the MasterCard Site Data Protection Program, and any other program or requirement that may be published and/or mandated by the Associations or payment networks (collectively "Operating Regulations").

For purposes of this section, Agents include, but are not limited to, Merchant’s software Toasts and/or equipment Toasts. If appropriately indicated in Merchant’s agreement with Toast, Merchant may be a limited-acceptance merchant, which means that Merchant has elected to accept only certain Visa and MasterCard card types (i.e., consumer credit, consumer debit, and commercial cards) and must display appropriate signage to indicate the same. Acquirer has no obligation other than those expressly provided under the Operating Regulations and applicable law as they may relate to limited acceptance. Merchant, and not Acquirer, will be solely responsible for the implementation of its decision for limited acceptance, including but not limited to policing the card type(s) accepted at the point of sale. Merchant shall only complete sales transactions produced as the direct result of bona fide sales made by Merchant to cardholders, and is expressly prohibited from presenting sales transactions which are produced as a result of sales made by any person or entity other than Page 11 of 14 11.2017 Merchant, or for any purposes related to any illegal or prohibited activity, including but not limited to money-laundering or financing of terrorist activities.

Merchant must not i) require a cardholder to complete a postcard or similar device that includes the cardholder’s account number, card expiration date, signature, or any other card account data in plain view when mailed, ii) add any tax to transactions, unless applicable law expressly requires that a Merchant impose a tax (any tax amount, if allowed, must be included in the transaction amount and not collected separately), iii) request or use an account number for any purpose other than as payment for its goods or services, iv) disburse funds in the form of travelers checks if the sole purpose is to allow the cardholder to make a cash purchase of goods or services from Merchant, v) disburse funds in the form of cash unless Merchant is dispensing funds in the form of travelers checks, TravelMoney cards, or foreign currency (in such case, the transaction amount is limited to the value of the travelers checks, TravelMoneycards, or foreign currency, plus any commission or fee charged by the Merchant), or Merchant is participating in a cash back service, vi) submit any transaction receipt for a transaction that was previously charged back to the Acquirer and subsequently returned to Merchant, irrespective of cardholder approval, vii) accept a Visa consumer credit card or commercial Visa product issued by a U.S. issuer to collect or refinance an existing debt, viii) accept a card to collect or refinance an existing debt that has been deemed uncollectable, or ix) submit a transaction that represents collection of a dishonored check.

Neither Merchant nor its Agent shall retain or store magnetic-stripe data subsequent to the authorization of a sales transaction. 

3. Settlement. Upon receipt of Merchant’s sales data for card transactions, Acquirer will process Merchant’s sales data to facilitate the funds transfer between the various Associations and Merchant. After Acquirer receives credit for such sales data, subject to the terms set forth herein, Acquirer will fund Merchant, either directly to the Merchant-Owned Designated Account or through Toast to an account designated by Toast (“Toast Designated Account”), at Acquirer’s discretion, for such card transactions. Merchant agrees that the deposit of funds to the Toast Designated Account shall discharge Acquirer of its settlement obligation to Merchant, and that any dispute regarding the receipt or amount of settlement shall be between Toast and Merchant. Acquirer will debit the Toast Designated Account for funds owed to Acquirer as a result of the Services provided hereunder, provided that Acquirer may also debit Merchant’s designated demand deposit account (“MerchantOwned Designated Account”) upon receipt of such account information from Merchant or Toast, or if Acquirer deposits settlement funds into the Merchant-Owned Designated Account. Further, if a cardholder disputes a transaction, if a transaction is charged back for any reason, or if Acquirer reasonably believes a transaction is unauthorized or otherwise unacceptable, the amount of such transaction may be charged back and debited from Merchant or Toast. 

4. Term and Termination. This Agreement shall be binding upon Merchant upon Merchant’s execution of an Order. The term of this Agreement shall begin, and the terms of the Agreement shall be deemed accepted and binding upon Acquirer, on the date Acquirer accepts this Agreement by issuing a merchant identification number, and shall be coterminous with Toast’s agreement with Merchant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Acquirer may immediately cease providing Services and/or terminate this Agreement without notice if (i) Merchant or Toast fails to pay any amount to Acquirer when due, (ii) in Acquirer's opinion, provision of a service to Merchant or Toast may be a violation of the Operating Regulations or any Laws, (iii) Acquirer believes that Merchant has violated or is likely to violate the Operating Regulations or the Laws, (iv) Acquire determines Merchant poses a financial or regulatory risk to Acquirer or an Association, (v) Acquirer’s agreement with Toast terminates, (vi) any Association deregisters Toast, (vii) Acquirer ceases to be a member of the Associations or fails to have the required licenses, or (viii) Acquirer is required to do so by any of the Associations.

Merchant agrees to provide Acquirer, via a communication with Toast, with written notice of any alleged breach by Acquirer of this Agreement, which notice will specifically detail such alleged breach, within thirty (30) days of the date on which the alleged breach first occurred. Failure to so provide notice shall be deemed an acceptance by Merchant and a waiver of any and all rights to dispute such breach. EXCEPT FOR THOSE EXPRESS WARRANTIES MADE IN THIS AGREEMENT, ACQUIRER DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Merchant’s sole and exclusive remedy for any and all claims against Acquirer arising out of or in any way related to the transactions contemplated herein shall be termination of this Agreement. In the event that Merchant has any claim arising in connection with the Services, rights, and/or obligations defined in this Agreement, Merchant shall proceed against Toast and not against Acquirer, unless otherwise specifically set forth in the Operating Regulations. In no event shall Acquirer have any liability to Merchant with respect to this Agreement or the Services. Merchant acknowledges Acquirer is only providing this Agreement to assist in Toast’s processing relationship with Merchant, that Acquirer is not liable for any action or failure to act by Toast, and that Acquirer shall have no liability whatsoever in connection with any products or services provided to Merchant by Toast. If Toast is unable to provide its services to Merchant in connection with this Agreement and Acquirer elects to provide those services directly, Merchant acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this Agreement will no longer apply and the terms of Acquirer’s then current Bank Card Merchant Agreement, which would be provided to Merchant, will govern Acquirer’s relationship with Merchant. If Toast subsequently provides its services to Merchant in connection with this Agreement, Acquirer will cease to provide such services after receipt of notice from Toast and this Agreement will govern Acquirer’s relationship with Merchant. 

6. Miscellaneous. This Agreement is entered into, governed by, and construed pursuant to the laws of the State of Ohio without regard to conflicts of law provisions. This Agreement may not be assigned by Merchant without the prior written consent of Acquirer.
