(a)Merchant Obligations Generally. Merchant: (i) covenants and agrees it shall only accept payments through the Services for bona fide sales of goods and services; (ii) hereby authorizes Yuansfer to request identity-verifying information about Merchant including a consumer report that contains Merchant’s name and address and authorizes Yuansfer to periodically obtain additional reports; (iii) hereby authorizes and permits Yuansfer to share information about Merchant and Merchant’s application (including whether Merchant is approved or declined) with Merchant’s bank or other financial institution, and governmental regulatory authority and (iv) shall provide additional information as Yuansfer may reasonably request for the purposes of meeting onboarding, periodic review requirements, Yuansfer’s internal audit, as well as government or regulatory entity requests.

(b)Submerchants. If you wish to permit third party merchants to use the Services in connection with transactions conducted, you will notify Yuansfer of the identity of such third party merchant and provide Yuansfer with all information as is reasonably requested by Yuansfer regarding such third party merchant, which Yuansfer may then submit to the applicable Payment Companies for review and approval or rejection. You will not permit any such third party merchant to use the Services or otherwise provide any third party merchant with the benefit of the Services unless and until Yuansfer notifies you in writing that such third party merchant has been approved by Yuansfer and the applicable Payment Companies to use the Services. Any such approved third party merchant is referred to in this Agreement as an “Approved Submerchant.” Yuansfer may revoke its approval of a third party merchant as an Approved Submerchant at any time upon written notice to Merchant.

4. YUANSFER OBLIGATIONS

a)Yuansfer shall be responsible for all costs associated with meeting Merchant’s acceptance criteria for the Services set forth in the applicable Order (if no acceptance criteria are defined, generally applicable industry standards shall apply). Merchant may reject the Services as integrated and configured in POS systems, during the acceptance period specified in the Order (if no acceptance period is specified, Merchant shall have no less than ten (10) business days to accept or reject such Services) for lack of material conformity to the acceptance criteria, and in such case, Yuansfer and Merchant shall agree upon a reasonable timeframe for Yuansfer to remedy the deficiencies identified by the Merchant. Acceptance of revised Services shall be in accordance with this Section 4 (a) and Section 16 (b). In the event the revised Services again fail to materially conform to the acceptance criteria, Merchant, in its sole discretion, may: (i) agree to allow Yuansfer another opportunity to remedy any remaining deficiencies; (ii) terminate the Order and receive a full refund of all fees and expenses paid thereunder to Yuansfer relating to the Services(s), if any, and return any portion of the Services associated with such Order upon request from Yuansfer (and Yuansfer shall remove any such installed Products at Yuansfer’s sole cost and expense); or (iii) modify the Order (including, but not limited to, the Fees) to reflect any portion of the Services that Merchant is willing to accept.

b)No trial use or testing of the Services, incremental or final payment, or passage of title shall constitute acceptance or shall prejudice Merchant’s right to reject or revoke acceptance of all or any portion of the Services.

c)Yuansfer shall comply with all applicable domestic and international laws and regulations pertaining to data privacy, personal data, trans-border data flow and data protection (including, without limitation, the requirements of HIPAA and its implementing regulations) and the PCI Data Security Standards (the “Data Protection Requirements”), as applicable, and will implement, keep current and adhere to a set of practices and procedures sufficient to enable such compliance (“Data Protection Requirements”).

d)Non-Solicitation. During the term of this Agreement and for a period ending one (1) year after termination for any reason (and the simultaneous termination of this Agreement), neither Parties, nor any entity controlled, directly or indirectly, by the Parties shall, directly or indirectly solicit any employees, , or agents of the Merchant to leave the service of either Parties.

5. EXCLUSIVITY

Merchant shall not (and shall ensure that each of its Affiliates does not) enter into an agreement with, or obtain services from, any third party that would allow Merchant or any of its Affiliates to accept payments from the Payment Methods set forth in such Merchant Application Form in all jurisdictions that Yuansfer provides the Payment Methods in. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit Yuansfer from offering its services to any third party or using such services or the Yuansfer IP in the ordinary course of its business, subject to Applicable Laws.

6. FEES AND PAYMENT

(a)Fees. In consideration for the Services, Merchant shall be responsible for paying Yuansfer the non-refundable fees set forth in the Merchant Application Form in accordance with the terms therein (“Fees”) without offset of deduction. Yuansfer will deduct its Fees before paying the Merchant. Yuansfer reserves the right to change the Fees or applicable charges and to institute new charges and Fees at the end of the initial Subscription Term or any renewal thereof, upon sixty (60) days’ prior notice to Merchant (which may be sent by email).

(b)Payments. Except as otherwise provided in an Merchant Application Form, payments due to Yuansfer under this Agreement shall be automatically deducted in the calculation of Settlement Funds remitted to Merchant. All payments are non-refundable and neither Party will have the right to set off, discount or otherwise reduce or refuse to pay any amounts due to the other Party under this Agreement. If at the time of any calculation of Settlement Funds during the Subscription Term, settlement amounts from Transactions during such period are insufficient to cover Fees owed for such Transactions, Yuansfer shall deduct such Fees from each subsequent calculation of Settlement Funds until such Fees are paid in full and in any event, Merchant shall remain liable for such payments until the all Fees have been paid in full. In the event Yuansfer is not able to receive its payment when due via deduction as set forth above, outstanding amounts owed shall be subject to late charges which shall accrue at the rate of 1.5% per month or, if lower, the highest rate permitted by applicable law and Yuansfer may suspend Services until all payments are made in full. Merchant will reimburse Yuansfer for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) in collecting any late payments or interest.

(c)Taxes. Merchant is responsible for all sales, use, ad valorem and excise taxes, and any other similar taxes, duties and charges of any kind imposed by any federal, state, multinational or local governmental regulatory authority on any amount payable by Merchant to Yuansfer hereunder, other than any taxes imposed on Yuansfer’s income. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that Merchant is required to deduct or withhold any taxes from the amounts payable to Yuansfer hereunder, Merchant will pay an additional amount, so that Yuansfer receives the amounts due to it hereunder in full, as if there were no withholding or deduction.

(d)Refunds. If a Merchant makes a Refund to the Consumer prior to Merchant receiving the Settlement Funds for the Transaction to which the Refund relates, then such Transaction will be deemed cancelled, and Yuansfer will not be required to pay any Settlement Funds to Merchant for such Transaction. If a Merchant makes a Refund to the Consumer following Merchant’s receipt of the Settlement Funds relating to the Transaction to which such Refunds relate, Yuansfer shall pay such Refund to the Consumer on behalf of Merchant (provided that Yuansfer, in its discretion, may require Merchant to pay such amount to Yuansfer prior to Yuansfer initiating the Refund to the Consumer).

(e)Disputed Payments. All disputes relating to the accuracy or applicability of a charge or credit or other claim under the Agreement will be resolved pursuant to the Agreement’s dispute resolution process. Yuansfer may withhold any amounts disputed within good faith and shall pay all undisputed amounts on the invoice pending resolution of the dispute. Unpaid or uncredited amounts withheld in dispute will not be considered the basis for a monetary default.

7. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

(a)The Receiving Party will protect and preserve the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party as confidential, using no less care than that with which it protects and preserves its own confidential and proprietary information (but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care), and the Receiving Party will maintain the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information in strict confidence, and will not use the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party except as necessary to perform its obligations or exercise its rights under this Agreement; provided that Yuansfer may use and modify Confidential Information of Merchant in de-identified form for purposes of developing and deriving Aggregate Data. The Receiving Party will not disclose or cause to be disclosed any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, except (i) to those employees, representatives, or contractors of the Receiving Party who have a bona fide need to know such Confidential Information to perform under this Agreement and who are bound by written agreements with use and nondisclosure restrictions at least as protective as those set forth in this Agreement, or (ii) as such disclosure may be required by the order or requirement of a court, administrative agency or other governmental body, subject to the Receiving Party providing to the Disclosing Party reasonable written notice to allow the Disclosing Party to seek a protective order or otherwise contest the disclosure.

(b)Each Party’s obligations of non-disclosure with regard to Confidential Information are effective as of the Effective Date and will expire five (5) years from the date first disclosed to the Receiving Party; provided, however, with respect to any Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret (as determined under applicable law), such obligations of non-disclosure will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for as long as such Confidential Information remains subject to trade secret protection under applicable law.

(c) If Confidential Information is required to be disclosed by law or order of a court of competent jurisdiction or regulatory authority, the Receiving Party shall (a) give Disclosing Party, to the extent possible, prompt and reasonable advance notice prior to disclosure so the Disclosing Party may contest the disclosure or seek a protective order, and (b) limit the disclosure to the minimum amount that is legally required to be disclosed.

(d)The terms and conditions of this Agreement will constitute Confidential Information of each Party but may be disclosed on a confidential basis to a Party’s advisors, attorneys, actual or bona fide potential acquirers, investors or other sources of funding (and their respective advisors and attorneys) for due diligence purposes.

8. SUPPORT AND HOSTING

(a)During the applicable Subscription Term, Yuansfer will provide Merchant with reasaonable technical support with respect to its use of the Services, in accordance with Yuansfer’s current support policies. Merchant acknowledges and agrees that its use of the Services is subject to its compliance with any software and other technical requirements as may be specified by Yuansfer from time to time.

(b)During the applicable Subscription Term, Yuansfer will be responsible for hosting the Yuansfer Platform, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any downtime, other than for scheduled maintenance or downtime caused by reasons beyond our reasonable control. We will notify you of any outage of the Yuansfer Platform and will use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly remediate such outage.

9. AGENT AUTHORIZATION

(a)In connection with the Services, Merchant hereby authorizes Yuansfer, and Yuansfer hereby agrees to act, as Merchant’s agent for the purposes of holding, receiving and transmitting funds to Merchant on Merchant’s behalf (including, but not limited to, any funds payable to Merchant for the account of an Approved Submerchant).

If such discontinued Payment Method is the only Payment Method that was made available under the Merchant Application Form, Yuansfer will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify a replacement payment method and, if such replacement payment method is acceptable to Merchant, the Parties will enter into an amendment to the Merchant Application Form with respect to such replacement payment method.

(a)Indemnification by Yuansfer. Subject to Section 14(b), Yuansfer will indemnify, defend and hold Merchant and its Representatives (collectively, the “Merchant Indemnitees”) harmless from and against any and all liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) (“Losses”) incurred by any of the Merchant Indemnitees in connection with any demand, action, claim, or proceeding by a thirdparty (each, a “Claim”) alleging that the use of the Services in accordance with this Agreement, infringes or misappropriates any United States patents, copyrights, or trade secrets.

(b)Exclusions. Yuansfer’s obligations under Section 14(a) will not apply if the underlying third-party Claim arises from or as a result of: (i) Merchant’s breach of this Agreement, negligence, willful misconduct or fraud; (ii) any Merchant Materials; (iii) Merchant’s failure to use any enhancements, modifications, or updates to the Services that have been provided by Yuansfer; (iv) modifications to the Services by anyone other than Yuansfer; or (v) combinations of the Services with software, data or materials not provided by Yuansfer.

If Yuansfer determines that neither alternative is commercially practicable, Yuansfer may terminate this Agreement and/or the applicable Merchant Application Form, in its entirety or with respect to the affected component, by providing written notice to Merchant. The rights and remedies set forth in this Section 14 will constitute Merchant’s sole and exclusive remedy for any infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property rights in connection with the Services.

(e)Indemnification Procedures. The Party seeking defense and indemnity (the “Indemnified Party”) will promptly (and in any event no later than thirty (30) days after becoming aware of facts or circumstances that could reasonably give rise to any Claim) notify the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the Claim for which indemnity is being sought, and will reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense and/or settlement thereof. The Indemnifying Party will have the sole right to conduct the defense of any Claim for which the Indemnifying Party is responsible hereunder (provided; however, that the Indemnifying Party may not settle any Claim without the Indemnified Party’s prior written approval unless the settlement is for a monetary amount, unconditionally releases the Indemnified Party from all liability without prejudice, does not require any admission by the Indemnified Party, and does not place restrictions upon the Indemnified Party’s business, products or services). The Indemnified Party may participate in the defense or settlement of any such Claim at its own expense and with its own choice of counsel or, if the Indemnifying Party refuses to fulfill its obligation of defense, the Indemnified Party may defend itself and seek reimbursement from the Indemnifying Party.
