Last Updated: October 12, 2026

This Money Movement Open Banking Services Agreement (the “Open Banking Services Agreement“) is a legally binding agreement between you, the person or entity (“Company“, “you“, or “your“) identified on the applicable proposal (“Proposal“), and Dwolla, Inc. (“NMI“, “us“, “our“, or “we“), an affiliate of Network Merchants, LLC. This Open Banking Services Agreement constitutes Service Terms under the NMI General Terms and Conditions, available at https://www.nmi.com/policy/platform-terms-conditions/ (the “General Terms and Conditions“), and is part of the Agreement (as defined in the General Terms and Conditions); NMI is the NMI Affiliate providing the Open Banking Services. If you have also accepted the Money Movement Service Terms, this Open Banking Services Agreement is one of the “Money Movement Agreements” thereunder. This Open Banking Services Agreement applies to your use of the Open Banking Services, as defined in Exhibit A below (also referred to in any Proposal as the “Money Movement Open Banking Services“), and to your access or use of related technology, software, and services that NMI or its Third-Party Service Providers make available to you. By accessing or using the Open Banking Services, you accept and agree to be bound by this Open Banking Services Agreement. In the event of a conflict between this Open Banking Services Agreement and the General Terms and Conditions or, if applicable, the Money Movement Service Terms, this Open Banking Services Agreement controls as to the Open Banking Services, solely to the extent of the conflict.

It is important that you read and understand this Open Banking Services Agreement as it governs your use of the Open Banking Services. You represent and warrant that you have the authority to accept this Open Banking Services Agreement on behalf of the legal entity you have registered and to provide any information that you share with NMI. By indicating your acceptance of this Open Banking Services Agreement or by executing a Proposal or other agreement that references this Open Banking Services Agreement, you agree to be bound by this Open Banking Services Agreement. If you do not accept this Open Banking Services Agreement, you must not access or use the Open Banking Services.

NMI offers software and services, as more fully described in this Open Banking Services Agreement, to facilitate the accessing of banking and financial data via NMI’s exchange session, which provides a Third-Party Service Provider’s link to a user interface the End User accesses to provide End User Data. You retrieve the End User Data from the user interface that the End User has authorized to be shared with you and NMI through NMI’s application programming interface (“NMI API“). You desire to use these services to help streamline and improve your onboarding process on your platform, website and/or application (each, an “Application“). You agree the terms herein govern your use of NMI’s software and services.

NMI may amend this Open Banking Services Agreement at any time by providing notice to you. The parties therefore agree as follows:

1. Open Banking Services

1.1 Description. The Open Banking Services are accessed through an API which will permit you to:

(A) Utilize NMI’s Third-Party Service Providers to perform the Open Banking Services, ordered by you through a Proposal;

(B) Upon successful authorization from End User, obtain specific details about End User and its financial institution account through the Third-Party Service Provider; and

(C) Obtain certain information, which may include information about payment activity, End Users or External Parties.

2. Account and Open Banking Services Access Requirements

2.2 Credentials. You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your NMI credentials, including passwords, security codes, and any key and secret issued to you to permit access to the API used for the Open Banking Services (the “Credentials“). Prior to the date NMI makes the Open Banking Services available to you (the “Open Banking Services Go Live Date“), you will be responsible for paying the Implementation Fee (as listed in the Proposal) as applicable. You may not sell, transfer, sublicense or disclose the Credentials to any third party, other than third party service providers who need such information to perform services for you. You are solely responsible for any activity using the Credentials, including any losses or liability that may arise from you sharing or failing to secure the Credentials.

2.3 User Permissions. You may permit your employees, your Affiliates, contractors, agents, or other third parties (each, an “Authorized User“) to access the Open Banking Services on your behalf. You will remain responsible for any actions taken by an Authorized User and for ensuring Authorized Users comply with the terms of this Open Banking Services Agreement. Authorized Users may only access or use the Open Banking Services for your internal business purposes and in accordance with this Open Banking Services Agreement. You are responsible for determining which Authorized Users may obtain access to certain features, functionality and data within the Open Banking Services. NMI is expressly permitted to rely on your creation of Authorized Users and user settings to release data or to initiate payments, if applicable, pursuant to instructions received through the Open Banking Services. Any third parties enabled as Authorized Users do not form any relationship with NMI and NMI will not be liable for any disputes, billing, or other matters between you and such Authorized User(s).

2.4 Third-Party Service Providers. NMI does not guarantee the availability of access to or reliability of services from Third-Party Service Providers.

3. Acceptable Use

3.1 Compliance. You represent and warrant that your use of the Open Banking Services will only be for lawful and legitimate purposes and will at all times comply with: (a) all applicable Laws (as defined in the General Terms and Conditions); (b) this Open Banking Services Agreement; and (c) the Integration Requirements.

3.2 Prohibitions. Without limiting the generality of Section 3.1, and in addition to any prohibitions and/or restrictions set out in Exhibit A, incorporated herein by reference, you agree you will not and will not permit your Authorized Users to:

(A) License, sublicense, sell, resell, transfer, assign or distribute Open Banking Services without express written permission from NMI;

(B) Reverse engineer, disassemble, decompile, disable, copy, modify, or translate the Open Banking Services or any of its features, components, or elements or otherwise attempt to discover the source code of the Open Banking Services;

(C) Replicate and/or resell the Open Banking Services or create a competitive product or any product built using the ideas, features, functions, and other components of the Open Banking Services;

(D) Use the Open Banking Services for any purpose other than your legitimate internal business purposes;

(H) Attempt any of the foregoing.

4. Security and Privacy

4.1 Personal Information. You represent and warrant that you have obtained express consent to provide NMI any identifying information of individuals processed using Open Banking Services (“Company PII“). NMI agrees not to sell or share, retain, use, or disclose Company PII for any purpose other than providing Open Banking Services as described in this Open Banking Services Agreement or meeting regulatory obligations.

4.2 Audit. NMI may audit, examine and otherwise monitor your compliance with this Open Banking Services Agreement and you agree to cooperate fully with any such audit. Within 30 days of notice from NMI, you will provide to NMI or its third party auditor (either, an “NMI Auditor“) access to and assistance with: documents, records, reports, or other data, information or materials compiled, maintained, or otherwise available to the extent related to your compliance with this Open Banking Services Agreement and not prohibited from disclosure by applicable Laws (as defined in the General Terms and Conditions). If an NMI Auditor determines that you are not in compliance with this Open Banking Services Agreement, you will take appropriate action to remedy the non-compliance and will provide NMI with evidence of the steps taken to achieve compliance within the time frame agreed upon by the parties.

5. Confidentiality

For purposes of this Open Banking Services Agreement, “Confidential Information” has the meaning given in the General Terms and Conditions. Confidential Information of a Third-Party Service Provider or Third-Party Data Provider disclosed to you in connection with the Open Banking Services will be subject to the same obligations that apply to NMI’s Confidential Information under the Agreement, and each such Third-Party Service Provider or Third-Party Data Provider retains all right, title, and interest in its own Confidential Information.

6. Intellectual Property

6.1 NMI API License. NMI grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to access, use, and integrate the Open Banking Services into your services or payment technology in accordance with this Open Banking Services Agreement (“API License“). This API License may be immediately revoked or terminated by NMI if you share your Credentials in a manner not permitted by this Open Banking Services Agreement or that otherwise breaches this Open Banking Services Agreement. “Dwolla,” the Dwolla logo, and any other service marks, trademarks, logos or graphics used in Open Banking Services (“Dwolla Marks“) are trademarks, registered trademarks, or otherwise intellectual property of NMI and you do not obtain any right or license to the Dwolla Marks under this Open Banking Services Agreement. You may not remove or obscure any Dwolla Marks displayed or contained in Open Banking Services.

6.2 General.

(A) Marketing. You agree to participate in case studies upon written request by NMI. Further, you agree that NMI may include you in materials identifying you as a customer of NMI and a user of the Open Banking Services. You authorize NMI to use your name, website, logo, or other trademarks or service marks to identify you as a customer of NMI on NMI’s websites, marketing materials, and in public presentations. If you desire to opt out of being included in such communications and materials, please contact NMI. Upon receipt of and in accordance with such request, NMI will cease making references to you and make reasonable efforts to remove you from any already existing marketing materials.

(B) Customer Support for End Users. You are solely responsible for providing customer support for your services to End Users and, if applicable, for any goods or services that are sold via your Application. You must clearly disclose your support policy and publish your customer support contact information in an easily accessible manner within any Application through which you offer your services.

(C) Dispute Resolution for End Users. You are responsible for resolving all End User disputes related to your services (“Company Services End User Dispute“), including any Company Services End User Dispute communicated by an End User to NMI. NMI has no obligation nor any liability associated with a Company Services End User Dispute or your resolution policies and procedures. You agree to provide NMI with any requested information regarding the status and/or resolution of a Company Services End User Dispute. NMI has the right but no obligation to provide support to an End User that contacts NMI regarding a Company Services End User Dispute, and in such event, you must provide NMI with any information NMI reasonably requests for the purposes of assisting End User.

7. Term and Termination

7.1 Term. The term of this Open Banking Services Agreement begins on the service start date specified for the Open Banking Services in the applicable Proposal or, if no service start date is specified, on the Open Banking Services Go Live Date, and continues until terminated as provided in this Open Banking Services Agreement or the Agreement (the “Term“).

(C) a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, transferable, sublicensable, perpetual and irrevocable license to reproduce, display, adapt, enhance, transmit, distribute and otherwise use Anonymous & Aggregated Data.

4.3 Responsibility.

(A) End User Consent.

(i) You must only request End User Data through the Open Banking Services that is expressly consented to by the End User or reasonably necessary to provide the End User’s requested product or service. You shall provide all notices and obtain all consents in the form and substance required under Privacy Laws to enable NMI and Third-Party Service Provider to lawfully Process End User Data. Your consent may not include a technology solution that automatically enrolls an End User into an agreement without such End User taking an express action. You shall, and shall ensure that all third parties to whom you provide access to End User Data, (1) Process and disclose End User Data solely in accordance with applicable Laws, this Open Banking Services Agreement, your privacy policy, Third-Party Service Provider’s privacy policies and the End User’s consent, and (2) limit collection, use, and retention of End User Data to what is reasonably necessary to provide the End User’s requested product or service.

(ii) Your disclosures to End Users shall (1) be clear, conspicuous, segregated from other material, and present in valid and enforceable terms and conditions, (2) include the categories of End User Data being collected and processed, the categories of data recipients, a description of how End User Data will be used, accessed, shared or sold, and any other terms or disclosures required by applicable Laws, (3) disclose to the End User any use by you of Anonymous & Aggregated Data, including Processing related to derivatives, compilations or combinations of End User Data, any anonymization and/or de-identification of End User Data, and any aggregation of End User Data with other data, (4) inform End Users that the End User Data does not represent an official record of the End User’s account with its financial institution, (5) state that you are acting independently and that the End User’s financial institution has no responsibility or liability with respect to your service or application, and (6) describe how the End User may exercise their privacy rights.

(iii) If you both access End User Data and initiate payments, you must obtain separate and distinct consents from End User for these separate activities.

(iv) You shall maintain such systems and procedures as may be reasonably necessary or otherwise required by NMI or Third-Party Service Provider (consistent with applicable Laws and industry best practices) to actively track, monitor and document such End User consent and any revocation thereof. You shall maintain records that, at a minimum, (a) include the scope of the consent and related disclosures, covered data elements, the date the End User provided consent, the consent effective date, and the consent expiration or termination date, and, to the extent required by applicable Laws, any consent and disclosure elements described under the applicable sections of this Exhibit A; and (b) are maintained in a system log or database that ensures completeness and integrity of records. Upon request, you will provide copies, or acceptable evidence, of such consents and disclosures.

(v) Third-Party Service Provider, End User’s financial institution and/or NMI will suspend your access to a specific End User’s data if such End User revokes consent with you, Third-Party Service Provider or the financial institution. Third-Party Service Provider or a Third-Party Data Provider may also require End Users to re-authenticate their consent upon (a) a Security Incident impacting such End User, (b) a change in the End User terms and conditions of you, Third-Party Service Provider or Third-Party Data Provider that requires a new consent to be obtained; or (c) the end of a specific period of time as required under applicable Laws or by the Third-Party Data Provider’s policies. You shall limit the duration of your collection of End User Data to the maximum period permitted under applicable Laws, or as consented by the End User (whichever is shorter) and, prior to or following the expiration of such period, shall obtain a new consent from the End User to continue or resume, as applicable, collection and Processing of the End User’s data.

(B) End User Control. You must provide End Users with a simple and readily accessible method to revoke consent in accordance with applicable Privacy Laws and may not charge fees or penalties to End Users for exercising their rights to revoke consent. You shall notify NMI and/or Third-Party Service Provider, as applicable, (including with information sufficient to enable Third-Party Service Provider to notify its Third-Party Data Providers, as necessary) and any other third party required to be notified by you under applicable Laws, promptly upon receiving an End User’s consent revocation. Upon such revocation, you shall cease all attempts to access the applicable End User Data, and shall no longer use or retain any previously collected End User Data unless reasonably necessary to provide the End User’s requested product or service.

(C) End User Data Access. NMI may provide a list of Internet Protocol addresses (“IP Addresses“) to Third-Party Service Provider from which Third-Party Service Provider may access End User Data from you on behalf of End Users. NMI may update the provided list from time to time. You must not block or otherwise obstruct Third-Party Service Provider and/or NMI from accessing End User Data using the IP Addresses in the provided list.

(D) Representations. You will not: (i) make representations or other statements with respect to Nonpublic Personal Information that are contrary to or otherwise inconsistent with Third-Party Service Provider’s privacy policy or (ii) interfere with any independent efforts by Third-Party Service Provider to provide End User notice or obtain End User consent.

(E) End User Requests.

(i) Technical Controls. You shall use the technical controls provided by Third-Party Service Provider through its API and/or the administrative controls NMI makes available to you in order to comply with your obligations to access, retrieve, correct and Destroy End User Data per an End User Request. The parties shall, taking into account the nature of the Processing, cooperate in good faith and provide reasonable assistance to each other in complying with End User Requests. Removal by an End User of a linked account in your Application constitutes an End User Request revoking the End User’s consent, and you shall promptly effectuate such revocation through the technical controls provided by Third-Party Service Provider through its API, such that access to the affected End User Data ceases.

(ii) Requests to You. You shall respond to and fulfill End User Requests, as applicable, made directly to you by an End User or on behalf of an End User in accordance with Privacy Laws.

(iii) Requests to Third-Party Service Provider. Third-Party Service Provider will, as applicable, respond to End User Requests made directly to Third-Party Service Provider in accordance with Privacy Laws provided that Third-Party Service Provider is able to identify the End User. If Third-Party Service Provider is not able to identify the End User or the End User Request has been escalated for any reason, Third-Party Service Provider will advise the End User to contact you. You shall be responsible for identifying any such End Users that contact you to exercise End User Requests and providing Third-Party Service Provider with information sufficient to allow Third-Party Service Provider to identify the End User and fulfill the End User Request as regards the data held by Third-Party Service Provider.

(iv) Suspension of Access. Third-Party Service Provider and/or NMI will have the right to engage with the End User directly regarding any End User Requests and will have the right to suspend your access to any End User Data at any time to address such End User Request.

(F) Information and Assistance. Upon written request, you will provide NMI, Third-Party Service Provider and/or Third-Party Data Provider with information reasonably needed to demonstrate compliance with the obligations in Exhibits A, B and C and the Privacy Laws. You shall provide reasonable assistance in fulfilling legal obligations under applicable Laws, including Privacy Laws (including contributing to data protection impact assessments and consultations with supervisory authorities).

5. Suspension

NMI and/or Third-Party Service Provider will have the right to suspend your Open Banking Services account or your access, in whole or in part, to the Open Banking Services and any End User Data upon reasonable, good-faith belief that:

(A) you are acting in an unauthorized manner with respect to your access to the Open Banking Services or any End User Data;

(B) there is a material risk to the security or integrity of the Open Banking Services, the End User Data, or any systems of NMI, NMI’s technology providers, any Third-Party Data Provider, or you; or

(C) suspending access is reasonably necessary to prevent harm to the business or reputation of NMI, an NMI technology provider, any Third-Party Data Provider, and/or their respective customers.

Your use of the Open Banking Services may be limited if your Open Banking Services account or access to your Open Banking Services is suspended. Any suspension will be reasonably limited in scope. Unless prohibited by applicable Laws, NMI will use reasonable efforts to provide timely notice of the suspension to you, including a description of the scope and reasons for the suspension. Such notice may occur after the suspension or restriction has occurred. NMI may also, in its reasonable discretion, contact any End User for NMI’s purposes, including fraud investigation and/or risk management purposes. If NMI contacts an End User for such purposes, NMI will notify you to the extent permissible under applicable Laws. The parties will cooperate in good faith to remediate the reason for any suspension. Upon resolution of the issue causing the suspension, NMI will promptly permit you to resume using the Open Banking Services.

You will not use the End User Data as a factor in establishing an individual’s eligibility for credit, insurance, employment or any government license or benefit, to take any “adverse action” (as defined in the FCRA), or in any manner that would cause Third-Party Service Provider, any Third-Party Data Provider or the End User’s applicable financial institution, to be deemed a “furnisher” as the term is defined in the FCRA. If Third-Party Service Provider or its Third-Party Data Providers reasonably determine that your use of End User Data may reasonably cause Third-Party Service Provider or its Third-Party Data Providers to be deemed a “furnisher”, Third-Party Service Provider may terminate this Open Banking Services Agreement upon notice to you in writing by certified or registered mail, a nationally recognized overnight courier service or, where specified, via email. Notices shall be deemed to have been received (i) on the date delivered if by a recognized overnight courier, fees prepaid; (ii) on the date received, if by registered or certified mail (fees prepaid, return receipt requested); or (iii) in the case of email, on the day the email is sent if sent during normal business hours, or, if not, on the subsequent business day.

6. COMPLIANCE; AUDITS

(A) In addition to the audit set out in Section 4.2 of the Open Banking Services Agreement, during the Term of the Open Banking Services Agreement and for one year thereafter, you will, upon reasonable advance written notice from Third-Party Service Provider and/or NMI, (i) permit Third-Party Service Provider, through its internal and external auditors or those of any Third-Party Data Provider, to audit, review and inspect (1) your books, records, and other documents, including security logs, and (2) your systems, networks, and facilities (an “Audit“), or (ii) provide to NMI, Third-Party Service Provider or any Third-Party Data Provider a written attestation of your compliance with the terms and conditions of this Open Banking Services Agreement governing the Processing of End User Data, the prompt reporting of all Security Incidents, and obligation to refrain from re-identifying or attempting to re-identify any aggregated or de-identified End User Data (an “Attestation“).

(B) All Audits will be conducted for the sole and exclusive purposes of confirming your compliance with the data handling and security terms and conditions of this Open Banking Services Agreement, and will occur during regular business hours, at NMI’s, Third-Party Service Provider’s or an applicable Third-Party Data Provider’s sole cost and expense, and, except following the occurrence of a Security Incident, no more frequently than once per year. You agree to reasonably cooperate with any Audit performed pursuant to this Section 6 and must promptly take all actions necessary to remediate any material deficiencies and non-compliance discovered as a result of any Audit or Attestation.

(C) Information Security Audits. At least annually during the Term, you must have a certified independent public accounting firm or another independent, certified, industry-recognized third party: (i) conduct a review or assessment and provide a full attestation, review, or report under SOC 2 Type II or an equivalent assessment framework such as ISO 27001 (or such reasonably comparable standard acceptable to Third-Party Service Provider in its reasonable sole discretion) of all your systems and operational controls used by you to access the Open Banking Services or access, store, or process any End User Data; and (ii) conduct and provide a full report of an independent network and application penetration test.

(D) You must provide copies of all such reports and the results of any testing to NMI and Third-Party Service Provider (each, a “Security Assessment Report“).

(E) All Attestations, Security Assessment Reports and the results of any of your Audits will be considered your Confidential Information; provided, however, that NMI, Third-Party Service Provider and/or Service Providers may disclose copies of the same to any Third-Party Data Provider at their sole discretion, provided such Third-Party Data Provider is bound by written obligations of confidentiality which are in no event less than a reasonable standard of care.

(F) Government Audits. Nothing in this Exhibit C is or will be construed as limiting the rights of any governmental or regulatory authority to conduct audits or investigations. You acknowledge that NMI and Third-Party Service Provider intend to fully comply with all governmental and regulatory authorities of NMI, Third-Party Service Provider and Third-Party Data Provider, including with respect to any law enforcement or judicial investigations, and that in connection with the foregoing, NMI and Third-Party Service Provider may disclose the identity of, and any information transmitted or received by, persons accessing the Open Banking Services. You agree to fully cooperate with any audits or investigations conducted by a governmental or regulatory authority pursuant to applicable Laws.

(G) Data Protection Audits.

(i) You shall be audited or assessed at least annually by internal auditors and/or accredited external auditors/auditing firms on various components of your enterprise and platforms in accordance with industry best practices. At least annually, you shall provide NMI and Third-Party Service Provider with an audit report, issued by an independent third-party auditor, demonstrating your compliance with Privacy Laws and your related obligations under this Open Banking Services Agreement (each a “Data Protection Audit Report“). In addition, you shall make available to NMI and Third-Party Service Provider all information reasonably requested by NMI and Third-Party Service Provider required pursuant to NMI’s or Third-Party Service Provider’s risk assessment policy, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you will not provide a copy of your internal risk assessment to NMI or Third-Party Service Provider. NMI and Third-Party Service Provider shall treat all such Data Protection Audit Reports as your Confidential Information and shall not use the Data Protection Audit Reports for any other purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, NMI and Third-Party Service Provider may disclose copies of the same to Third-Party Data Provider(s) in their sole discretion, provided that such Third-Party Data Providers are subject to a confidentiality agreement with NMI, Third-Party Service Provider, or Service Provider(s) that binds such Third-Party Data Provider to maintaining the confidentiality of your Confidential Information consistent with the confidentiality provisions of this Open Banking Services Agreement.

(ii) In the event of (1) a Security Incident or (2) NMI or Third-Party Service Provider, in each of their sole and reasonable discretion, determine that a Data Protection Audit Report you provide fails to adequately demonstrate your compliance with Privacy Laws or your related obligations under this Open Banking Services Agreement, you shall upon NMI’s or Third-Party Service Provider’s reasonable written request, make available to NMI or Third-Party Service Provider, as applicable, all reasonably required information necessary to demonstrate compliance with your obligations under the Privacy Laws and your related obligations under this Open Banking Services Agreement, and allow for (and contribute to) audits, including inspections conducted by NMI or Third-Party Service Provider or another auditor under the instruction of NMI or Third-Party Service Provider, subject to the following:

(a) Such audits, including inspections, shall begin upon not less than 15 days’ notice except in the event of a Security Incident, provided that the audit will (1) not disrupt your business; (2) be conducted during business hours; (3) not interfere with the interest of your other customers; and (4) not exceed a period of two successive business days;

(b) NMI, Third-Party Service Providers (or their third party auditors, respectively) will comply with your relevant security policies and appropriate confidentiality obligations as set out in this Open Banking Services Agreement;

(c) You will contribute to the audit by providing NMI or Third-Party Service Provider, as applicable, with reasonable assistance; and

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, physical or logical access to your computer systems will not be permitted, and you will not be required to display or otherwise disclose any confidential information of any third party or any information that could jeopardize the security or integrity of your computer systems.

(H) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, upon written request, you will provide information reasonably needed to demonstrate compliance with the obligations in this Exhibit C and Privacy Laws.

THE PLAID SERVICES, PLAID-PROVIDED DATA, AND ANY OTHER INFORMATION, SOFTWARE, PRODUCTS, SERVICES AND MATERIALS PROVIDED BY PLAID IN CONNECTION WITH THIS OPEN BANKING SERVICES EXHIBIT – PLAID ARE PROVIDED “AS IS.” TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NEITHER PLAID NOR ITS AFFILIATES, SUPPLIERS, LICENSORS, OR DISTRIBUTORS MAKE ANY WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT, OR ANY WARRANTY THAT THE SERVICES ARE FREE FROM DEFECTS. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING IN THIS SECTION 4 (DISCLAIMER; ENFORCEMENT), NEITHER PLAID NOR ITS AFFILIATES, SUPPLIERS, LICENSORS, OR DISTRIBUTORS MAKE ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY AS TO THE PLAID-PROVIDED DATA THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM USE OF THE PLAID SERVICES OR THAT ANY PLAID SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, OR THAT ANY DATA PROVIDED BY OR THROUGH ANY PLAID SERVICES WILL BE TIMELY, ACCURATE, OR COMPLETE. PLAID WILL BE AN INTENDED THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARY OF THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN NMI AND YOU AND MAY DIRECTLY ENFORCE SUCH AGREEMENT AGAINST YOU, WITHOUT NMI’S CONSENT OR PARTICIPATION, BUT SOLELY RELATING TO THE PLAID-PROVIDED DATA (INCLUDING FI DATA) AND PLAID SERVICES THAT ARE PROVIDED BY PLAID TO NMI OR YOU.

5. FI Data

Through the Open Banking Services or Plaid Services, you may have access to information about or of End Users provided to Plaid by a bank, financial institution, or other data source (each, as designated by Plaid, “FI“, and such information, the “FI Data“).

(i) Your Obligations.

(A) End User Consents. You will provide all notices to, and obtain all express consents from, each End User as required under applicable Laws in connection with your use, storage, and other processing of any FI Data (such notices and consents, the “Express Consents“). Express Consents will: (1) be clear and conspicuous; (2) generally specify the categories of FI Data that you will receive and how you will use, store, and otherwise process FI Data; (3) be valid, enforceable, and expressly accepted by each End User; (4) identify any and all third parties or categories of third parties to whom you may provide FI Data for processing; (5) specify how End Users may exercise their right to revoke their Express Consent; and (6) include any other required disclosures under applicable Laws. You will maintain records (which may include technical logs, screenshots, versions of Express Consents obtained) sufficient to demonstrate your compliance with this Section 5(i)(A) (End User Consents) and will promptly provide such records to Plaid upon request.

(B) Scope of Access. You will only access FI Data for which you have obtained Express Consents from the End User for the use case reviewed and permitted by Plaid in writing and consented to by the applicable End User (such use case, the “Permitted Use Case“). For clarity, key factors Plaid will consider during its review of a potential Permitted Use Case include whether the use case is appropriate and useful to provide the End User with your application that the End User has enrolled in, whether your application provides a direct benefit to the End User, whether the use case directly supports the development of new or improved product features for the benefit of End Users, and the jurisdiction(s) in which you operate and/or store FI Data. If you possess FI Data that exceeds the scope of the End User’s Express Consents, you will use industry-standard means to permanently and securely delete (“Delete“) such FI Data; provided that you may retain such FI Data to the extent required by applicable Laws. If you become aware that any data you receive from Plaid does not relate to the End User that you originally requested FI Data for, you will promptly notify Plaid and will Delete such data.

(C) Data Use. You will use, store and otherwise process FI Data solely in accordance with the End User’s Express Consents and applicable Laws.

(D) Data Disclosure. You will not disclose, transfer, syndicate or distribute FI Data to any third party (including your service providers) except as permitted by the End User’s Express Consent and in accordance with applicable Laws. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, you will not sell FI Data.

(E) Data Deletion. You will promptly Delete any FI Data upon request by the applicable End User; provided that you may retain copies of FI Data solely to the extent required by applicable Laws.

(F) No Attribution. You will not charge End Users any fees attributable to an FI for (a) access to its FI Data or (b) use of End User’s account with an FI in connection with your application. In addition, you will not suggest or imply a partnership, sponsorship, or other relationship with an FI based on your receipt of FI Data under the Open Banking Services Agreement or this Section 5 (FI Data).

(G) No Other Access. During the term of the Open Banking Services Agreement, you will only access FI Data through the Plaid Services or another manner that uses the FI’s authorized APIs. You will not “screen scrape” data from FIs or collect an End User’s log-on credentials for FI accounts, and will not otherwise knowingly obtain from a third party FI Data that was originally sourced through screen scraping an FI. You will immediately Delete any such End User log-on credentials in your possession. You will maintain records to demonstrate compliance with this Section 5(i)(G) (No Other Access). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 5(i)(G) (No Other Access) will prohibit you from engaging any third party to obtain services similar to the Plaid Services, provided that such third-party services enable your access to FI Data solely via the FI’s authorized APIs.

(H) Compliance with Laws. You will comply with all applicable privacy, security, and other laws pertaining to FI Data. You will not use, store, disclose, or otherwise process any FI Data for any purpose not permitted under applicable Laws. For the avoidance of doubt, you acknowledge that Section 1033 of the Dodd-Frank Act may include obligations on you relating to processing, handling and protecting FI Data. You will maintain a program designed to ensure compliance with applicable Laws, including appropriately training your personnel.

(I) Information Security Program. You will maintain a comprehensive written information security program approved by your senior management (“Infosec Program“). The Infosec Program will include administrative, technical and physical measures designed to: (a) ensure the security of FI Data, (b) protect against unauthorized access to or use of FI Data and anticipated threats and hazards to FI Data and (c) ensure the proper disposal of FI Data. The Infosec Program will be appropriate to your risk profile and activities, the nature of your application, and the nature of the FI Data received by you. In any event, the Infosec Program will meet or exceed applicable control objectives captured in industry standards and best practices, such as AICPA Trust Service Criteria for Security, NIST 800-53, or ISO 27002, and will comply with applicable Laws. You will use up-to-date antivirus software and anti-malware tools designed to prevent viruses, malware, and other malicious code in your application or on your systems.

(J) Security Breach Obligations. You will notify NMI and Plaid promptly (and in any event within twelve (12) hours) via an email to security@plaid.com, following you becoming aware of any Security Breach, providing a description of all known facts, the types of End Users affected, and any other information related to such Security Breach that Plaid and/or NMI may reasonably request. You will reasonably cooperate with Plaid and/or NMI in investigating and remediating Security Breaches. You will be responsible for the costs of investigating, mitigating, and remediating the Security Breach. “Security Breach” means any event that compromises your application or your systems or that does or reasonably could compromise the security, integrity or confidentiality of FI Data or result in the unauthorized use, disclosure, or loss of FI Data.

(K) FI Confidential Information. If Plaid discloses to you any confidential or proprietary materials of an FI pertaining to the provision of FI Data hereunder (such materials, “FI Confidential Information“), such materials will be subject to the same obligations that apply to NMI’s Confidential Information under the Open Banking Services Agreement, which will in no event be less protective of such information than a reasonable standard of care. FI Confidential Information will also be subject to the same obligations as FI Data under this Section 5(i) (Your Obligations). You will promptly Delete FI Confidential Information in your possession upon Plaid’s request and will provide a written certification regarding such Deletion.

(L) Oversight and Cooperation. Toward assessing your material compliance with this Section 5 (FI Data), you will promptly provide all reasonably necessary information and cooperation requested by Plaid, an FI, or any entity with examination, supervision, or other legal or regulatory authority over Plaid or an FI. In the event that Plaid has a good faith reason to believe that you are not in material compliance with this Section 5 (FI Data), Plaid will notify you and, upon Plaid’s request, you will promptly provide sufficient documentation to demonstrate such material compliance. If the documentation provided by you in accordance with the immediately prior sentence is insufficient (in Plaid’s reasonable discretion) to demonstrate such material compliance, you will submit to a third-party audit by a firm selected by you from a list of audit firms reasonably approved by Plaid to verify such compliance. Plaid and FIs may also conduct technical or operational assessments of you, which will be subject to advance notice and will not occur more than once per year unless legally required and materially different in scope from a preceding audit.

(M) Information Sharing. Where required by an FI or relevant to your access or use of FI Data from that FI, Plaid may share with such FI certain information related to your compliance with this Section 5 (FI Data), including with respect to your Infosec Program. Plaid will use commercially reasonable efforts to require that such FI treat any such information in a confidential manner.

(N) Insurance. You will maintain insurance coverage appropriate to your risk profile and activities, the nature of your application, and the nature of the FI Data received by you; provided that such coverage will be no less than industry standard and will include cybersecurity liability insurance.

(O) Access Frequency. The parties acknowledge that as of the effective date of the Open Banking Services Agreement, no guidelines regarding your frequency of “batch” pulls of FI Data (such guidelines, the “Guidelines“) apply to Plaid end clients. Notwithstanding the foregoing in this paragraph: (1) You will comply with any Guidelines provided in writing by Plaid (including via NMI); and (2) Plaid and NMI may enforce such Guidelines to the extent necessary in accordance with Plaid’s standard practices, which may include throttling, suspension or termination of your access.

(P) Your Marks License. You hereby grant to Plaid, each FI (and each of their third-party service providers), and NMI the non-exclusive and non-transferable right and license to use your trademarks and service marks solely in connection with consent management activities, including use associated with your End User-facing consent management portals operated by Plaid or an FI.

(ii) Suspension. Plaid and/or NMI may suspend your access to the Open Banking Services, Plaid Services or FI Data, in whole or in part, if Plaid and/or NMI determines or reasonably believes that: (a) there is unauthorized access to the Plaid Services and/or the Open Banking Services via the administrative controls NMI makes available to you; (b) you have breached this Section 5 (FI Data); (c) your use of the Open Banking Services, Plaid Services or FI Data will or has materially violated the Open Banking Services Agreement and/or an agreement between Plaid and an applicable FI; (d) your use of the Open Banking Services, Plaid Services or FI Data will or does pose a risk of material harm, including material reputational harm, to End Users, an FI, the Open Banking Services or the Plaid Services. In addition, an FI may suspend your access to FI Data with respect to such FI. Plaid will use commercially reasonable efforts to: (1) notify NMI prior to any suspension described in this paragraph; (2) discuss with NMI in good faith any such suspension; and (3) resume your access to the Plaid Services and FI Data as promptly as is practicable after the basis for such suspension is cured to Plaid’s (and, as applicable, the relevant FI’s) reasonable satisfaction. Unless prohibited by applicable Laws, in the event of a suspension by NMI, NMI will use reasonable efforts to provide timely notice of the suspension to you, including a description of the scope and reasons for the suspension. Such notice may occur after the suspension or restriction has occurred. NMI may also, in its reasonable discretion, contact any End User for NMI’s purposes, including fraud investigation and/or risk management purposes. If NMI contacts an End User for such purposes, NMI will notify you to the extent permissible under applicable Laws. The parties will cooperate in good faith to remediate the reason for any suspension. Upon resolution of the issue causing the suspension, NMI will promptly permit you to resume using the Open Banking Services.

(iii) Indemnity. In addition to Section 8 of the Open Banking Services Agreement, you will indemnify, defend and hold harmless each FI, Plaid, NMI and the affiliates of each of the foregoing from any claims, actions, suits, demands, losses, liabilities, damages (including taxes), costs, and expenses arising from or in connection with: (a) any Security Breach resulting in unauthorized disclosure of FI Data provided to you hereunder; or (b) your unauthorized or improper use of FI Data provided to you hereunder (including any unauthorized data sharing, transmission, access, display, storage, or loss). This Section 5(iii) (Indemnity) is not subject to any limitation of liabilities set forth in the Open Banking Services Agreement. Each FI is a third-party beneficiary of this Section 5(iii) (Indemnity).

(iv) Modifications. You acknowledge that continued access to FI Data provided by certain FIs may necessitate modifications to this Section 5 (FI Data) pertaining to all applicable Plaid end clients. You will accept such modifications to continue accessing or using the Plaid Services with respect to such FIs. Plaid will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify NMI of the modifications and the effective date of such modifications. If you object to the modifications, your exclusive remedy is to cease any and all access and use of the Plaid Services as it relates to the applicable FI(s). Continued access to or use of such Plaid Services after the effective date of such modifications to this Section 5 (FI Data) will constitute your acceptance of such modifications.

(v) Miscellaneous. In the event of a conflict with any other agreement or provision (including other provisions within the Open Banking Services Agreement), the terms and conditions of this Section 5 (FI Data) will govern and prevail. Capitalized terms used in this Section 5 (FI Data) and not otherwise defined will have the meanings ascribed to them in the Open Banking Services Agreement. All provisions of this Section 5 (FI Data) will remain in force in the event of the termination or expiration of this Section 5 (FI Data), this Open Banking Services Exhibit – Plaid, or the Open Banking Services Agreement.

Money Movement Account Terms of Service

These Account Terms of Service (“TOS“) are a legally binding agreement between you, Dwolla, Inc.

This TOS applies to your creation and use of a money movement account (“Money Movement Account“) provided to you through one of NMI’s clients. NMI offers a payment software platform (the “Money Movement Platform“) to its clients, who use the Money Movement Platform to provide services to consumers and/or businesses like you. The Money Movement Platform permits users to initiate and send payment instructions to one or more of our Financial Institution Partners, who will provide the funds transfer services based on those instructions.

Our Financial Institution Partners are party to this TOS only in each entity’s capacity as the financial institution that holds funds or performs funds transfers, as more fully described at https://www.dwolla.com/legal/about-our-financial-institution-partners. Except as specifically set forth in this TOS, the Financial Institution Partners are not responsible for the Money Movement Platform or fulfillment of NMI’s obligations under this TOS.

It is important that you read and understand this TOS, as it governs your use of your Money Movement Account and any features of the NMI client’s application that rely on the Money Movement Platform.

If you do not agree to these terms, you must immediately stop using the Money Movement Account and notify the NMI client who is providing you access to the NMI-Enabled Services that you wish to deactivate your Money Movement Account.

We may amend this TOS at any time by posting a revised version on dwolla.com or any other website we maintain for purposes of providing the Money Movement Platform or Money Movement Accounts. Amendments to the TOS are effective at the time we post them and your continued use of your Money Movement Account constitutes acceptance of any amendments.

2.1 The Money Movement Platform is provided to one or more clients of NMI that provide you with access to services enabled by the Money Movement Platform, including the ability to create a Money Movement Account in the client’s application and to transmit instructions to initiate payments between you and such NMI client or another end user of the client’s application. These services are the “NMI-Enabled Services.”

2.2 In the event you use or access digital money management tools, including balance check or instant account verification, that one or more of NMI’s clients may provide to you and that access third party account information (“Open Banking Services“), such use or access is subject to and governed by the Money Movement Open Banking Services End User Terms and Conditions found at https://www.dwolla.com/legal/open-banking-end-user-terms (“EULA“). It is important that you read and understand this EULA. By accessing or using the Open Banking Services, you accept and agree to be bound by the EULA. If you do not agree to the terms and conditions in the EULA or no longer wish to use or access the Open Banking Services, you must notify the NMI client who is providing you access to the Open Banking Services that you wish to revoke your consent by removing the associated account from the NMI client’s application.

3. About Money Movement Accounts and the NMI-Enabled Services.

Your Money Movement Account can only be accessed through the NMI-Enabled Services in the NMI client’s application. NMI is not a money transmitter and does not perform money transmission or money transfer or payment services. All payments made based on the instructions transmitted to NMI through the NMI-Enabled Services are processed and disbursed by our Financial Institution Partners, who are regulated financial institutions. To the extent that your Money Movement Account permits you to hold a stored value of funds associated with your Money Movement Account (a “Money Movement Balance“), any funds recorded as held in your Money Movement Balance are held by our Financial Institution Partners in one or more pooled holding accounts. FUNDS HELD IN SUCH HOLDING ACCOUNTS MAY NOT BE ELIGIBLE FOR SHARE INSURANCE OFFERED BY THE NATIONAL CREDIT UNION SHARE INSURANCE FUND AND ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR INSURANCE SPONSORED BY THE FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION. IN THE EVENT OF A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION PARTNER RECEIVERSHIP, YOU MAY LOSE VALUE.

4. Creating Your Money Movement Account.

Money Movement Accounts are available to Business Customers and to Personal Customers. Money Movement Accounts must be used in accordance with any terms and conditions the NMI client imposes on your use of the application as well as this TOS. You agree that any information you provide to NMI to create your Money Movement Account is true and accurate at the time you create your Money Movement Account and you agree to update that information from time to time to ensure it remains true and accurate at all times you have an open Money Movement Account. If you fail to update this information, we may suspend or terminate your Money Movement Account. You authorize us to share this information with our Financial Institution Partners and other third parties in accordance with NMI’s privacy policy, available at https://www.nmi.com/policy/privacy/ (the “Privacy Policy“), as it may be updated from time to time. You also agree you have read and accepted Veridian Credit Union’s Notice of Your Financial Privacy Rights, available at https://www.veridiancu.org/webres/File/privacy-policy.pdf.

4.1 Business Customers. Business Customers must be businesses (including sole proprietorships), non-profit organizations, and other entities registered and located in the United States.

4.6 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Important information about procedures for opening a new account under the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001: To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. What this means for you: When you create a Money Movement Account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see a form of identification with your photograph or other identifying documents.

5. Using Your Money Movement Account.

5.1 Linked Payment Account; Authorization to Debit or Credit. To transmit payment instructions, you must link at least one bank or credit union account at a state- or federally-chartered financial institution in the United States (each, a “Linked Payment Account“) to your Money Movement Account. When you transmit payment instructions using the NMI-Enabled Services, you authorize NMI to send such instructions to our Financial Institution Partner, who you authorize to credit or debit your Linked Payment Account in accordance with your instructions. You expressly authorize NMI, as originator, to originate such credit and debit entries to your Linked Payment Account. You are solely responsible for complying with any terms set by your bank or credit union with respect to your Linked Payment Account, including any fees (e.g., nonsufficient fund or overdraft fees).

5.3 Compliance with Laws. You shall only use your Money Movement Account and the NMI-Enabled Services for lawful and legitimate purposes and you will at all times comply with all applicable Laws.

5.4 Prohibited Money Movement Account Activities. You shall not use your Money Movement Account or the NMI-Enabled Services to: (i) engage in illegal or fraudulent activities; (ii) benefit any country, organization, entity, or person embargoed or blocked by any government, including those on the sanctions lists maintained by the U.S. Office of Foreign Asset Control (OFAC); or (iii) engage in transactions related to or in furtherance of the following activities (“Prohibited Activities“):

If we learn or suspect that you are using your Money Movement Account or the NMI-Enabled Services for any illegal or fraudulent purpose, we may share your information with any government or regulatory authority, financial institution, or law enforcement agency we deem necessary to fulfill our obligations to comply with applicable laws.

5.5 Support. You should contact the NMI client who provides you access to your Money Movement Account and the NMI-Enabled Services with any requests or questions related to your Money Movement Account. If you cannot obtain adequate assistance from such NMI client, you may contact NMI at support@dwolla.com.

5.6 Terminating Your Money Movement Account. If you desire to terminate your Money Movement Account, please contact the NMI client who provides you access to your Money Movement Account to request they close your Money Movement Account and to be sure that you have met all requirements for account termination. You may also contact support@dwolla.com, but you agree and acknowledge that NMI cannot close any account you have created with the NMI client directly or to resolve any dispute you may have with the NMI client. If your Money Movement Account is eligible to hold a balance, you must provide instructions as to where to transfer that balance, if any, prior to closing your Money Movement Account.

5.7 Dormant Money Movement Accounts. If your Money Movement Account is terminated or deactivated by you, by NMI, or as a result of the termination of expiration of the NMI client’s agreement with NMI, and you fail to provide instructions for any remaining Money Movement Balance, you authorize the return of your remaining Money Movement Balance to your Linked Payment Account or to you by other reasonable means. If we are unable to return your Money Movement Balance to you, our Financial Institution Partners may be required by law to deem the funds to be abandoned after a certain period of inactivity (a “Dormant Money Movement Account“). Where required by law, we will attempt to notify you if we believe your account is a Dormant Money Movement Account. If you do not respond to such attempts to notify you by providing instructions as to how to handle your remaining Money Movement Balance, our Financial Institution Partners will deliver them to the appropriate government authority. If we do not have sufficient information from you to determine your state of residence, we will deliver your Money Movement Balance to the Iowa Treasurer of State.

6. Payment Method Specific Terms.

6.1 ACH Payments. You agree that you will provide us sufficient information to satisfy the requirements of the Nacha Operating Rules to create instructions to make or receive a payment in the automated clearinghouse (“ACH“) network. NMI has established cutoff times for receipt of payment instructions and you understand that NMI cannot and does not guarantee any specific time in which ACH transactions initiated through your Money Movement Account will be completed. For questions regarding any specific transaction or its anticipated timing, please contact the NMI client who provides you access to your Money Movement Account or the NMI-Enabled Services.

6.2 Instant Payments. If the NMI client who provides you access to your Money Movement Account or the NMI-Enabled Services offers instant payments as an eligible payment method, the following terms apply. Instant payments may be processed through the RTP® network operated by The Clearing House (“RTP“) and/or the FedNow® Service operated by the Federal Reserve Banks (“FedNow“), and the rail used for any given transaction may be determined by NMI or our Financial Institution Partners. The terms below apply to each such transaction based on the rail used.

By submitting a payment instruction that is processed as a RTP transaction, you agree that we may share your information with our Financial Institution Partners and that you have read and you accept Veridian Credit Union’s Notice of Your Financial Privacy Rights, available at https://www.veridiancu.org/webres/File/privacy-policy.pdf.

You agree that you shall enter into an agreement with each of the receivers prior to sending NMI an RTP transaction in which they authorize you to send such RTP transaction. Further, you agree that you waive, release, and discharge all rights or claims against our Financial Institution Partners in connection with the RTP services. You agree to retain records related to your RTP transactions for 7 years following the date you send such RTP instruction to NMI and to provide such data to NMI upon request. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you may not send RTP transactions (y) that exceed the limits provided for in the RTP Rules or any other applicable transaction limits expressly imposed on your Money Movement Account or (z) to any account not located within the United States.

(b) The following terms apply to any transaction processed through the FedNow Service. FedNow is a service for instant payments built by the Federal Reserve. Instant payments refers to, according to the Federal Reserve, the ability for consumers and businesses to send and receive funds from their accounts at financial institutions in real time, any time of day, any day of the year, with immediate funds (within a matter of seconds) availability to receivers. FedNow transfers are made by our Financial Institution Partners. By submitting a payment instruction that is processed as a FedNow transaction, you agree that we may share your information with our Financial Institution Partners and that you have read and you accept Veridian Credit Union’s Notice of Your Financial Privacy Rights, available at https://www.veridiancu.org/webres/File/privacy-policy.pdf. You shall transmit to NMI all information necessary to effectuate payment in accordance with all current operational rules, policies, procedures, regulations, agreements, manuals, messaging standards, bulletins, notices and similar documents or other standards of the FedNow Service issued or established by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or any Federal Reserve Bank to the extent applicable to the FedNow Service and including by way of example only, the FedNow Operating Circular 8 and the FedNow Service Operating Procedures (collectively, the “FedNow Rules“). You represent and warrant that (i) each FedNow instruction you submit is made in accordance with the FedNow Rules; (ii) as the sender of such FedNow transaction, you authorize our Financial Institution Partners to submit such payment to the FedNow Service, debit your Linked Payment Account and send a credit to the receiver’s account in the amount set out in your instruction payment message; (iii) your FedNow transaction is initiated in connection with a separate agreement with the receiver; and (iv) such FedNow transaction does not violate applicable law. You agree that you shall enter into an agreement with each of the receivers prior to sending NMI a FedNow transaction in which they authorize you to send such FedNow transaction. Further, you agree that you waive, release, and discharge all rights or claims against our Financial Institution Partners in connection with the FedNow services. You agree to retain records related to your FedNow transactions for 7 years following the date you send such FedNow instruction to NMI and to provide such data to NMI upon request. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you may not send FedNow transactions (y) that exceed the limits provided for in the FedNow Rules or any other applicable transaction limits expressly imposed on your Money Movement Account or (z) to any account not located within the United States.

6. No Endorsement.

NMI does not endorse, guarantee, or sponsor any of the NMI clients who provide you with the NMI-Enabled Services. We are not responsible for the provision or failure to provide any services or goods by the NMI client or any other act or omission of such NMI client. Your relationship with such NMI client is governed by the terms of the agreements you enter into directly for the NMI client’s services.

8. Unauthorized Transactions and Error Resolution.

8.1 Notification of Money Movement Account Errors. Contact NMI immediately at compliance@dwolla.com or 1-888-289-8744 if you believe that (i) your Money Movement Account has been accessed without your authorization; (ii) a transaction has occurred that you did not authorize; (iii) a transaction has been processed incorrectly to or from your Money Movement Account or your Linked Payment Account; or (iv) your Money Movement Account transaction history made available to you by the NMI client providing the NMI-Enabled Services contains an error (each, an “Error“). For clarity, if you give a third party access to your Money Movement Account and that person conducts transactions you did not anticipate, these transactions are not Errors. You must notify us within sixty (60) days after the Error first appeared in your transaction history.

8.2 Required Information for Notice. When you notify us of the Error, you must provide: (i) Your name and the name of the NMI client who provides you with access to your Money Movement Account; (ii) the nature of the suspected Error and why you believe it is an Error; and (iii) the dollar amount of the Error. If you notify us by phone, you must provide this information in an email within ten (10) business days.

8.3 Investigation of Errors. We will determine whether an Error occurred within ten (10) business days after you notify us and provide all required information in Section 8.2. If we need more time, we may take up to 45 days to investigate but we will credit your Money Movement Account within ten (10) business days for the amount of the suspected error. For Errors involving new Money Movement Accounts, we may take up to 90 days to investigate and may take up to 20 business days to credit your Money Movement Account. We will tell you the results of our investigation within 3 business days after completing our investigation. If we determine there was no Error, we will provide you a written explanation. You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.

9. Your Liability and Actions We May Take.

9.1 Your Liability. You are responsible for all reversed or failed transactions, fees, claims, fines, penalties, and other liabilities incurred by NMI, our Financial Institution Partners, or other NMI customers arising from your use of your Money Movement Account or the NMI-Enabled Services or any breach of this TOS. Without limiting the foregoing, you agree to reimburse NMI or our Financial Institution Partners for any liability relating to a transaction that: (i) is reversed in accordance with NMI or its Financial Institution Partners’ risk management policies; (ii) is reversed in accordance with applicable laws, including without limitation, by ACH return (as that term is defined under the Nacha Rules), (iii) fails due to your error; (iv) fails due to the provision of inaccurate information; or (v) is cancelled or rejected by you or the recipient or sender, or your or their bank or credit union (each, a “Reversal“).

9.2 Actions We May Take. To recover any amounts lost due to a Reversal, you authorize NMI to debit your Money Movement Account or your Linked Payment Account for such amount. Additionally, at NMI’s option, NMI may suspend your Money Movement Account or engage in collection activities. For all other liabilities or if NMI determines, in our sole discretion, that you have breached this TOS or that your Money Movement Account or use of the NMI-Enabled Services presents a risk or other threat to NMI, NMI’s clients, or the Money Movement Platform, or if we are unable to verify your identity, we may take any of the following actions (without limiting or foregoing any other remedies available to us under the law or the terms of this TOS):

  • Suspending your access to your Money Movement Account or the NMI-Enabled Services;
  • Suspending your access to your funds held in a Money Movement Balance for up to 90 days;
  • Closing your Money Movement Account;
  • Contacting the NMI client providing you access to your Money Movement Account and NMI-Enabled Services to notify them of your activity, contacting your bank or credit union, contacting law enforcement or other third parties impacted by your activities; and
  • Taking legal action against you.

10. Consent to Receive Electronic Communications.

10.1 Communications. By opening a Money Movement Account and using the NMI-Enabled Services, you consent to receive all communications, terms, disclosures, notices, and statements (“Communications“) from NMI electronically and you confirm that you can access, receive and retain such Communications. NMI will provide Communications by posting them on dwolla.com or by emailing them to you at the email address you provided when opening or updating your Money Movement Account.

10.2 Tax Communications. In certain circumstances, NMI may be required to issue a tax form to you as a Money Movement Account holder. You consent to receive such tax forms and all communications related to such filings (the “Tax Communications“) electronically for so long as you maintain your Money Movement Account and through the tax filing period immediately following, unless you notify us that you have withdrawn consent in accordance with Section 10.5 below. It is your responsibility to maintain a current email address associated with your account, which can be updated by contacting the NMI client providing the NMI-Enabled Services to you.

10.3 Receipt of Notices. A Communication to you will be deemed to have been received twenty-four hours after we have posted it to our website or emailed it to you.

10.4 Delivery Requirements. In order to access and retain our Communications you will need: a computer or mobile device that is Internet-enabled, a valid email address, Internet connectivity, and a web browser which includes 128-bit encryption, with cookies and javascript enabled.

10.5 Withdrawing Consent. You may withdraw your consent to receive Communications electronically by contacting us at support@dwolla.com or 1-888-289-8744. Because the nature of the NMI-Enabled Services requires delivery of Communications electronically, we will close your Money Movement Account upon receipt of notice of your intent to withdraw such consent. If you withdraw such consent specifically with regard to Tax Communications, NMI will provide you a paper copy of your tax forms at the mailing address you provide to us or the NMI client providing you with access to the NMI-enabled services.

11. Intellectual Property.

NMI is the owner of all rights, interest, and title in and to the intellectual property in the Money Movement Platform and any NMI documentation (including without limitation any patents, copyrights, rights of publicity, trademarks, logos, designs, trade dress, and trade secrets). All rights in the NMI intellectual property not expressly granted to you in this TOS are reserved. You shall not and shall not allow any third party to use your Money Movement Account and the NMI-Enabled Services to: (i) claim or register any NMI intellectual property on your behalf or on behalf of others; (ii) import or export any portion of the Money Movement Platform to a person or country in violation of export control laws; (iii) copy, reproduce, post, transmit, resell or distribute the NMI-Enabled Services or any content or data obtained through the NMI-Enabled Services or our website; (iv) access or attempt to access non-public NMI information; (v) hack or develop workarounds to any technical limitations placed on your Money Movement Account by NMI or NMI’s client; (vi) reverse engineer the Money Movement Platform or any component of the NMI-Enabled Services; (vii) engage in any activity that would interfere with or affect NMI’s ability to provide the Money Movement Platform or the NMI-Enabled Services, including sending an unreasonably large number of requests in quick succession to the Money Movement Platform; or (viii) attempt any of the foregoing.

12. Termination.

12.1 By You. You may stop using your Money Movement Account at any time. You may terminate this TOS by notifying NMI that you intend to close your Money Movement Account or by terminating your relationship with the NMI client who provides you access to your Money Movement Account and the NMI-Enabled Services.

12.2 By NMI. We may close your Money Movement Account or terminate your access to the NMI-Enabled Services without liability, for any reason, upon notice to you. NMI reserves the right to modify or terminate the Money Movement Platform at any time, for any reason.

13. Disputes with NMI.

13.1 Binding Arbitration. You, NMI, and our Financial Institution Partners (the “Parties“) agree that any past, present, or future dispute, claim or controversy relating in any way to your Money Movement Account or use of the NMI-Enabled Services, or any other relationship or transaction between you and us, will be resolved by binding arbitration as discussed below, and not through litigation in any court. Such disputes are called “Claims” for purposes of this TOS. This binding agreement to arbitrate applies regardless of whether the dispute is between you and us jointly or separately. This arbitration agreement is entered into pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16. Before initiating arbitration, you and we must first comply with Section 13.3. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single neutral arbitrator acting under the administration of United States Arbitration and Mediation, MidWest, Inc., and in accordance with the then-applicable United States Arbitration and Mediation Rules of Arbitration. If United States Arbitration and Mediation, MidWest, Inc. is unavailable or declines to administer an arbitration, the arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its then-applicable Consumer Arbitration Rules. Unless the Parties agree otherwise, or unless the arbitration administrator’s rules or law require otherwise, the arbitration shall be held in the county in which you reside or, at your or our election, by videoconference or telephone. The arbitrator will decide the Claim in accordance with all applicable law, including recognized principles of equity and statutes of limitations, and will honor all privileges recognized by law. The arbitrator will have the authority to award to a Party any damages or relief provided for under applicable law. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and legally binding, and may be enforced by any court having jurisdiction. If you elect to proceed with respect any Claim by an individual action in a small claims court, or its equivalent, instead of arbitration, we will not object, however, any such action shall be taken in small claims court in Delaware. If the arbitrator or arbitration administrator would impose filing fees or other administrative costs on you, we will reimburse you, upon request and provided you have complied with Section 13.3, to the extent such fees or costs would exceed those that you would otherwise have to pay if you were proceeding instead in a court. We will also pay additional fees or costs if required to do so by the arbitration administrator’s rules or applicable law. Apart from the foregoing, each Party will be responsible for any other fees or costs, such as attorney fees that the Party may incur. If you consider that you are unable to afford any fees or costs that would be yours to pay, you may request that we pay or reimburse them, and we will consider your request in good faith. ARBITRATION WITH RESPECT TO A CLAIM IS BINDING AND NEITHER PARTY WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE THAT CLAIM THROUGH A COURT. IN ARBITRATION THE PARTIES WILL NOT HAVE THE SAME RIGHTS THAT APPLY IN COURT, SUCH AS THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JUDGE OR JURY AND THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE OR BE REPRESENTED IN PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT BY OTHERS SUCH AS CLASS ACTIONS OR SIMILAR PROCEEDINGS. IN ADDITION, THE RIGHT TO DISCOVERY AND THE RIGHT TO APPEAL MAY ALSO BE LIMITED OR ELIMINATED IN ARBITRATION. ALL OF THESE JUDICIAL RIGHTS ARE WAIVED WITH RESPECT TO CLAIMS.

13.2 Class Waiver; Waiver of Trial by Jury. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Parties agree that no class actions or similar process, and no joinder or consolidation of any Claim with a Claim of any other person or entity, shall be allowable. In arbitration, the arbitrator shall have no authority to entertain any Claim on behalf of a class, group, person, or entity who is not a named party to the arbitration, nor shall any arbitrator have authority to make any award for the benefit of, or against, any class, group, person, or entity who is not a named party to the arbitration. In the event that there is a dispute about whether limiting arbitration to non-class proceedings, or to the named parties, is enforceable under applicable law, then that question shall be resolved by a court rather than by an arbitrator; and to the extent it is determined that resolution of a Claim must proceed on a class basis, it shall so proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction rather than in arbitration. In the event that any dispute proceeds in court, each party irrevocably waives any right to trial by jury in any proceeding with regard to any Claim.

13.3 Informal Dispute Resolution. Before filing a Claim in arbitration, the Party asserting the Claim must send the other an individualized written notice describing the Claim, the relief sought, and the facts supporting it. Notice to us must be sent to legal@dwolla.com and must be personally signed by you. Notice to you will be sent to the email or mailing address associated with your Money Movement Account. For sixty (60) days after a notice is received, the Parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve the Claim, including through an individualized telephone or videoconference discussion if either Party requests one. A Claim may be filed in arbitration only after this period ends without resolution. All applicable statutes of limitations are tolled while this Section 13.3 is being followed.

13.4 Coordinated Claims. If twenty-five (25) or more Claims of a substantially similar nature are asserted against us by the same or coordinated counsel or Parties, the Claims shall be administered in staged proceedings: the Parties shall each select up to twenty-five (25) Claims to be filed and resolved first, and no other Claims may be filed until those are resolved. This process shall repeat in successive stages. Statutes of limitations are tolled for Claims awaiting filing under this Section. Nothing in this Section prevents you from proceeding in small claims court, or from opting out under Section 13.5. If a court determines this Section is unenforceable as to a Claim, that Claim shall proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction rather than in arbitration.

13.5 Your Right to Opt Out. You may reject this Section 13 (Disputes) by sending written notice to legal@dwolla.com within thirty (30) days after you first accept this TOS, stating your name, the NMI client through which you access your Money Movement Account, and your intent to opt out of arbitration. Opting out will not affect any other provision of this TOS and will not result in any penalty or change to your Money Movement Account.

13.6 Changes to this Section. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this TOS, changes to this Section 13 will not apply to any Claim of which either Party had written notice before the effective date of the change.

14. General.

14.1 Indemnity. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless NMI, our Financial Institution Partners, and our and their respective officers, directors, agents, employees, and suppliers from any third party claims, actions, proceedings, and suits and related liabilities, damages, settlements, penalties, fines, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and other litigation expenses) arising from: (a) your violation of this TOS or any other applicable terms or policies of NMI or our Financial Institution Partners; (b) your use of your Money Movement Account or the NMI-Enabled Services; (c) your negligence or willful misconduct; and/or (d) your actual or alleged violation of any third party rights, or any applicable Laws.

14.2 Limitation of Liability. IN NO EVENT SHALL NMI, OUR FINANCIAL INSTITUTION PARTNERS, OR OUR OR THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, AGENTS, EMPLOYEES, OR SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES FOR ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES OR LOSSES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, USE, DATA, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES INCURRED IN CONNECTION WITH: (i) THIS TOS, (ii) YOUR USE OF, INABILITY TO USE, OR UNAVAILABILITY OF THE MONEY MOVEMENT SERVICES, OR (iii) ANY GOODS OR SERVICES PURCHASED, RECEIVED, OR PAID FOR USING THE MONEY MOVEMENT SERVICES, UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY OR CAUSE OF ACTION WHETHER IN TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER NMI OR OUR FINANCIAL INSTITUTION PARTNER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT SHALL NMI OR OUR FINANCIAL INSTITUTION PARTNERS’ LIABILITY AND THE LIABILITY OF OURS AND ITS RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, AGENTS, EMPLOYEES, AND SUPPLIERS EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE FEES NMI HAS RECEIVED FROM YOU THROUGH YOUR USE OF THE MONEY MOVEMENT SERVICES AND (B) $200. NMI AND OUR FINANCIAL INSTITUTION PARTNER SHALL NOT BE JOINTLY LIABLE FOR ANY MATTERS HEREUNDER.

NMI, OUR FINANCIAL INSTITUTION PARTNERS, AND OUR AND THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, AGENTS, EMPLOYEES, AND SUPPLIERS, SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. NEITHER NMI NOR OUR FINANCIAL INSTITUTION PARTNERS HAS CONTROL OF, OR LIABILITY FOR, ANY ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF OR SERVICES OR GOODS OFFERED BY THE NMI CLIENT WHO PROVIDES YOU ACCESS TO YOUR MONEY MOVEMENT ACCOUNT. NEITHER NMI NOR OUR FINANCIAL INSTITUTION PARTNERS REPRESENTS OR WARRANTS THAT YOUR MONEY MOVEMENT ACCOUNT OR THE MONEY MOVEMENT-ENABLED SERVICES WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, BE CONTINUOUS, UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, TIMELY, OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED BY YOU FROM NMI WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED HEREIN. NEITHER NMI NOR OUR FINANCIAL INSTITUTION PARTNERS SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY SERVICE INTERRUPTIONS OR SYSTEM FAILURES THAT MAY AFFECT THE PROCESSING, COMPLETION, OR SETTLEMENT OF TRANSACTIONS. THIS DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY SECTION SHALL APPLY TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW IN THE APPLICABLE JURISDICTION.

14.4 Force majeure. You understand and agree we will not be held responsible for any losses or damages resulting from suspension of service due to extraordinary events or circumstances beyond our control.

Money Movement Open Banking Services End User Terms and Conditions

Last Updated: October 12, 2026

These Money Movement Open Banking Services End User Terms and Conditions (“EULA“) are a legal agreement between you and Dwolla, Inc. (“NMI“, “us“, “we“, or “our“), an affiliate of Network Merchants, LLC. This EULA applies to your use of digital money management tools and Money Movement Open Banking Services that an NMI Client may provide to you (“you” or “your“) and that involve accessing third-party account information (for purposes of this EULA, the “Open Banking Services“, which are distinct from any other open banking services offered by NMI). “NMI Client” means the NMI client whose platform, application, or website you use to access the Open Banking Services. We may amend this EULA at any time by posting a revised version on any website maintained for purposes of providing the Money Movement Platform or Open Banking Services. Amendments to the EULA are effective at the time they are posted and your continued use of the Open Banking Services constitutes acceptance of any amendments.

1. Provide Accurate Information. You represent and agree that all information you provide to NMI in connection with the Open Banking Services is accurate, current, and complete. You agree not to misrepresent your identity or account information. You agree to keep account information secure, up to date and accurate. You represent that you are a legal owner, or an authorized user, of the accounts at third-party sites which you include or access through the Open Banking Services, and that you have the authority to (i) designate NMI and its service providers as your agent, (ii) use the Open Banking Services, and (iii) give NMI and its service providers the passwords, usernames, and all other information you provide.

2. Content You Provide. Your use of the Open Banking Services is your authorization for NMI or its service providers, as your agent, to access third-party sites which you designate in order to retrieve information. In order to use the Open Banking Services and by using the Open Banking Services, you must accept the NMI Privacy Policy (available at www.nmi.com/policy/privacy) which (i) sets out what of your data is collected, how data will be used, and how collected data will be accessed, shared, exchanged, or sold; (ii) sets out disclosures regarding the collection, use and sharing of such data; (iii) identifies the categories of third parties to whom your data may be provided or who may use, receive, store or process the same; and (iv) describes how your data will be protected in the event that NMI ceases to make available the Open Banking Services to you. Further, in order to use the Open Banking Services, you must accept the applicable NMI Client’s privacy policy, which sets out the NMI Client’s policies for items (i) through (iv) as applied to the NMI Client, not NMI, and will be provided to you when you sign up for an account with the applicable NMI Client. You are licensing to NMI and its service providers any information, data, passwords, usernames, PINs, personally identifiable information or other content you provide through the Open Banking Services. You authorize NMI or its service providers to use any information, data, passwords, usernames, PINs, personally identifiable information or other content you provide through the Open Banking Services or that NMI or its service providers retrieve on your behalf for purposes of providing the Open Banking Services and as otherwise described in the NMI Privacy Policy and permitted by applicable law and NMI’s agreements with its service providers. Except as otherwise provided herein, NMI or its service providers may store, use, change, or display such information or create new content using such information. You authorize NMI to share this information with other third parties in accordance with the NMI Privacy Policy.

3. Authority to Access Information. Unless and until this EULA is terminated, you grant NMI and its service providers the right to access information at third-party sites on your behalf. Third-party sites shall be entitled to rely on the authorizations granted by you or through your account. For all purposes hereof, you hereby grant NMI and its service providers the right to access third-party sites to retrieve information, use such information, as described herein, with the full power and authority to do and perform each and every act and thing required and necessary to be done in connection with such activities, as fully to all intents and purposes as you might or could do in person. You may revoke NMI’s and its service providers’ right to access information at third-party sites on your behalf at any time by removing the associated linked account in the NMI Client’s application or, if you are unable to do so through the NMI Client’s application, by contacting NMI at support@dwolla.com. You may also request deletion of information collected from third-party sites by the same means, except that NMI and its service providers may retain and continue to use anonymized, aggregated data described in Section 7, and information they are required or permitted to retain under applicable law. If you revoke your consent as to all linked accounts and cease using the Open Banking Services, this EULA terminates, except that Sections 7, 8, and 11 through 19 survive, and information already collected will continue to be handled in accordance with the NMI Privacy Policy. You understand and agree that the Open Banking Services are not sponsored or endorsed by any third-party site. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT WHEN NMI OR ITS SERVICE PROVIDERS ACCESS AND RETRIEVE INFORMATION FROM THIRD-PARTY SITES, THEY ARE ACTING AT YOUR REQUEST AND WITH YOUR PERMISSION AND AUTHORIZATION, AND NOT ON BEHALF OF THE THIRD-PARTY SITES.

The third-party sites you select are solely responsible for their services to you. Neither NMI nor its service providers are liable for any damages or costs of any type arising out of or in any way connected with your use of the services of those third parties.

Neither NMI nor its service providers are responsible for any technical or other difficulties or any resulting damages that you may incur. Any information displayed or provided as part of the Open Banking Services is for informational purposes only, does not represent an official record of your account, may not reflect your most recent transactions, and should not be relied on for transactional purposes. NMI and its service providers reserve the right to change, suspend or discontinue any or all of the Open Banking Services at any time without prior notice. In the event that the Open Banking Services are discontinued, your information shall be retained in accordance with this EULA and the NMI Privacy Policy.

11. Indemnification. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless NMI, its service providers and third-party data providers, and their respective officers, directors, employees, suppliers and agents from and against any and all third-party claims, liabilities, damages, actions, proceedings, penalties, fines, costs, losses or expenses, including settlement amounts and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, arising out of your access to or use of the Open Banking Services, your negligence or willful misconduct, your actual or alleged violation of any third-party rights, or any applicable laws, regulations or rules, your violation of this EULA, or your infringement, or infringement by any other user of your account, of any intellectual property or other right of anyone.

13. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES. YOU AGREE YOUR USE OF THE OPEN BANKING SERVICES AND ALL INFORMATION AND CONTENT (INCLUDING THAT OF THIRD PARTIES) IS AT YOUR RISK AND IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS. NMI AND ITS SERVICE PROVIDERS DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND AS TO THE USE OF THE OPEN BANKING SERVICES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT.

NMI AND ITS SERVICE PROVIDERS SHALL NOT BE JOINTLY LIABLE FOR ANY MATTERS HEREUNDER. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SECTION SHALL APPLY TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW IN THE APPLICABLE JURISDICTION.

15. DISPUTES WITH NMI AND BINDING ARBITRATION.

15.1. Agreement to Arbitrate. This Section 15 is referred to as the “Arbitration Agreement.” Except where prohibited by applicable law, each party agrees that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and NMI, whether arising out of or relating to this EULA or in connection with your use of the Open Banking Services or NMI’s websites, shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than a court, in accordance with the terms of this Arbitration Agreement, except that you may assert individual claims in small claims court, if your claims qualify. Each party agrees that, by agreeing to this EULA, you and NMI are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. The party’s rights will be determined by a neutral arbitrator, not a judge or jury. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Arbitration Agreement shall not preclude either party from pursuing a court action for the sole purpose of obtaining a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction in circumstances in which such relief is appropriate; provided that any other relief shall be pursued through an arbitration proceeding pursuant to this Arbitration Agreement. In any event, any action or proceeding by a party against another party relating to any dispute must commence within one year after the cause of action accrues.

15.2. Class Action Waiver. Except where prohibited by applicable law, you and NMI agree that each may bring claims against the other only on an individual basis and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative action or proceeding. Unless both you and NMI agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate or join more than one person’s or party’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a consolidated, representative, or class proceeding. Also, the arbitrator may award relief (including monetary, injunctive, and declaratory relief) only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief necessitated by that party’s individual claims.

15.3. Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution. The parties agree that each is interested in resolving disputes amicably and efficiently and, in that way, you agree to initially work with the support team at NMI. If such efforts prove unsuccessful, a party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written notice of dispute. The notice to NMI should be sent to NMI at the address set forth below. The notice to you should be sent to the address that NMI has on file for you. The notice of dispute must (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought. If you and NMI do not resolve the claim within forty five (45) calendar days after the notice of dispute is received, you or NMI may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you and NMI shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or NMI is entitled.

15.4. Arbitration Procedure. The arbitration will be conducted by a neutral arbitrator in accordance with the American Arbitration Association’s (“AAA“) rules and procedures, including the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules (collectively, the “AAA Rules“), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. If there is any inconsistency between any term of the AAA Rules and any term of this Arbitration Agreement, the applicable terms of this Arbitration Agreement will control unless the arbitrator determines that the application of the inconsistent Arbitration Agreement terms would not result in a fundamentally fair arbitration. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including, but not limited to, issues relating to the scope, enforceability, and arbitrability of this Arbitration Agreement. The arbitrator can award issues relating to, without limitation, the scope, enforceability, and arbitrability of this Arbitration Agreement. The arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual under this EULA and applicable law. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court only for very limited reasons. Unless you and NMI agree in writing, any arbitration hearings will take place in a reasonably convenient location for both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, the determination shall be made by AAA. If your claim is for $10,000 or less, NMI agrees that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing or by an in- person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.

15.5. Cost of Arbitration. Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees (collectively, the “Arbitration Fees“) will be governed by the AAA Rules unless otherwise provided in this Arbitration Agreement. The arbitrator shall award the prevailing party in any arbitration such party’s reasonable attorney’s fees.

15.6. Confidentiality; Severability. All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, and any ruling, decision, or award by the arbitrator, will be strictly confidential for the benefit of all parties. If a court or the arbitrator decides that any term or provision of this Arbitration Agreement other than Section 15.2 above (Class Action Waiver) is invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree to replace such term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Arbitration Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified. If a court or the arbitrator decides that any of the provisions of Section 15.2 above is invalid or unenforceable, then the entirety of this Arbitration Agreement shall be null and void. The remainder of this EULA will continue to apply.

16. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL AND CLASS ACTION. You agree that, with respect to any dispute with NMI or NMI’s service providers or third-party data providers, arising out of or relating to your use of the Open Banking Services or this EULA: (i) YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO HAVE A TRIAL BY JURY; and (ii) YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO SERVE AS A REPRESENTATIVE, AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, OR IN ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, OR TO PARTICIPATE AS A MEMBER OF A CLASS OF CLAIMANTS, IN ANY LAWSUIT INVOLVING SUCH DISPUTE. In arbitration, the arbitrator shall have no authority to entertain any Claim on behalf of any class, group, person, or entity who is not a named party to the arbitration, nor shall any arbitrator have authority to make any award for the benefit of, or against, any class, group, person, or entity who is not a named party to the arbitration. In the event that there is a dispute about whether limiting arbitration to non-class proceedings, or to the named parties, is enforceable under applicable law, then that question shall be resolved by a court rather than by an arbitrator; and to the extent it is determined that resolution of a Claim must proceed on a class basis, it shall so proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction rather than in arbitration.

17. Export Restrictions. You acknowledge that the Open Banking Services and any software underlying such Open Banking Services are subject to the U.S. Export Administration Regulations (15 CFR, Chapter VII) and that you will comply with these regulations. You will not export or re-export the software or Open Banking Services, directly or indirectly, to: (1) any countries that are subject to U.S. export restrictions; (2) any end user who has been prohibited from participating in U.S. export transactions by any federal agency of the U.S. government; or (3) any end user who you know or have reason to know will utilize them in the design, development or production of nuclear, chemical or biological weapons. You further acknowledge that the Open Banking Services may include technical data subject to export and re-export restrictions imposed by U.S. law.

18. Governing Law. You agree that the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, govern this EULA and any claim or dispute that has arisen or may arise between the Parties, except that the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of Sections 15 and 16.

19. General. (a) Entire Agreement. This EULA, together with the NMI Privacy Policy and the applicable NMI Client’s privacy policy, constitutes the entire agreement between you and NMI with respect to the Open Banking Services and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous understandings with respect thereto. (b) No Waiver. Any failure of NMI or its service providers to enforce any right or provision of this EULA shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. No waiver shall be effective unless made in writing. (c) Assignment. You may not assign or transfer this EULA without NMI’s prior written consent, and any attempted assignment in violation of this Section is void. NMI may assign or transfer this EULA, in whole or in part, at any time without notice to you. (d) Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except for NMI’s service providers and third-party data providers, who are intended third-party beneficiaries solely of the protections expressly extended to them in Sections 11, 13, 14, 15, and 16, this EULA does not confer any rights or remedies on any person other than you and NMI. (e) Severability. A determination that any provision of this EULA is unenforceable or invalid shall not render any other provision of this EULA unenforceable or invalid.

20. Eligibility. You represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years old and a legal resident of the United States. If you access or use the Open Banking Services on behalf of a business or other entity, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to bind that business or entity to this EULA. If you do not meet these requirements, you may not access or use the Open Banking Services.

21. Consent to Electronic Communications. By accepting this EULA and using the Open Banking Services, you consent to receive all notices, disclosures, communications, and agreements from NMI electronically, whether provided by NMI directly or through the NMI Client that provides you access to the Open Banking Services, and you confirm that you can access, receive, and retain such electronic communications. You may withdraw this consent by discontinuing your use of the Open Banking Services.

22. Force Majeure. Neither NMI nor its service providers will be liable for any delay or failure to perform, or for any interruption or unavailability of the Open Banking Services, resulting from causes beyond their reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, riots, governmental action, labor conditions, power or Internet failures, or the acts or omissions of third-party data providers or other third parties.

23. Third-Party Service Providers and Data Providers. The Open Banking Services rely on one or more third-party service providers and third-party data providers to access information from third-party sites at your request. Your access to and use of the Open Banking Services, and the information accessed through them, is also subject to the applicable third-party service provider’s end user privacy policy. You agree not to use the Open Banking Services in any manner inconsistent with the applicable third-party service provider’s end user privacy policy. Categories of third parties to whom your information may be provided, or who may receive, store, or process it, include NMI’s third-party service providers and data providers that support the Open Banking Services.

Platform Misconduct

This statement outlines NMI’s operational stance on platform integrity involving merchants or other parties using payment flows that leverage NMI technology.

NMI may receive reports or allegations regarding merchants or other parties that allege involvement in fraudulent, deceptive, unlawful, or otherwise harmful activity. When NMI becomes aware of information concerning alleged misuse or misconduct, it evaluates the matter based on the information available to NMI, including the credibility, authority, and relevance to NMI’s platform, which may include consideration of:

• Direction or notification from an acquiring bank, sponsor bank, or payment processor;
• Card network communications, monitoring programs, or rule enforcement actions;
• Law enforcement inquiries, legal process, or regulatory requests;
• Credible technical or security indicators involving NMI systems (e.g., system abuse, malware, credential compromise, etc.); or
• Clear violations of NMI contractual terms, acceptable use provisions, or security requirements.

Unsubstantiated, anonymous, or speculative claims, without supporting evidence or appropriate authority, do not typically warrant direct action by NMI.

Where supported by applicable agreements, network rules, acceptable use considerations and/or posing a business, operational, or reputational risk to NMI (each, in NMI’s sole and absolute discretion), NMI may take appropriate action, including termination of any party’s usage of the NMI platform.

To ensure fairness and clarity, NMI does not:
• Act as a regulator, law enforcement authority, or adjudicator of legal disputes
• Restrict merchants solely based on unsupported accusations or competitive complaints
• Publish or maintain public lists of alleged “bad actors”

Any reports of suspected misuse or misconduct may be submitted to fraud@nmi.com. Submission of a report does not guarantee investigation or action by NMI.

Protecting the privacy of all who rely on our services is paramount to us. To this end, NMI requires valid and binding legal process before disclosing data, except in emergencies, where lawful consent has been provided, or in other circumstances in NMI’s sole discretion and consistent with applicable law.

NMI reserves the right to object to requests that do not comply with applicable laws.

Requests that include a demand for witness testimony must be personally served on NMI at its Illinois offices. For more information about testimony requests, please see Section 6. 

b. Preservation Requests

NMI will preserve data for 90 days upon receipt of a formal preservation request from law enforcement in connection with an official criminal investigation and pending the issuance of a court order or other legal process. Law enforcement may request one extension of the preservation request for an additional 90 days. If law enforcement agents do not request an extension before the expiration of the initial 90-day preservation period and/or do not serve NMI with compulsory legal process before the expiration of the preservation period, the preserved information will be deleted after the preservation period expires. It is the responsibility of law enforcement to track the expiration date for a preservation request and notify NMI of any request to extend the preservation period.

Preservation requests must be sent on official law enforcement letterhead, signed by a law enforcement official and must include sufficient identifiers for the entity and/or individual whose data is requested to be preserved (see Section 2) and a statement that steps are being taken to obtain a court order or other legal process for the data sought to be preserved.

c. Emergency Disclosure Request Procedures

If law enforcement believes there is an ongoing emergency involving an imminent threat of death or serious bodily harm to a person, please complete the NMI Emergency Disclosure Request form and submit it to us at legalnotices@nmi.com. The subject line of the email should include “Emergency Request.” We review these requests on a case-by-case basis.

Please note that we will only review and respond to emergency requests from law enforcement. We will not respond to emergency requests sent to this address by non-law enforcement officials.

4. Civil Requests

a. Service and Jurisdiction Requirements

Except for requests related to bankruptcy proceedings, all civil requests, including requests for records and/or testimony, must be personally served on NMI at its Illinois offices. Civil requests related to bankruptcy proceedings may be submitted via email at legalnotices@nmi.com.

All state civil requests must be properly domesticated in Illinois or Delaware.

b. Bankruptcy Requests

Please note NMI is not a bank, and therefore we do not hold funds or manage bank accounts, and we cannot freeze assets and generally cannot process garnishment requests. Accordingly, please consider whether NMI is the appropriate recipient of your request or whether it should be directed to NMI’s sponsor bank, Merrick Bank (Member FDIC), or another entity. 

5. Information That May Be Available 

Our Privacy Policy sets forth the categories of information that may be available from us. However, the information we may have for a particular request depends on whose data is being requested and which of our services they have used. We cannot guarantee the availability of any information. We retain data in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

Absent exigent circumstances or other lawful exceptions, certain categories of information may only be obtained pursuant to a court order or a search warrant.

6. Witness Testimony Requests

NMI provides a business record certification with its productions, which generally eliminates the need for live testimony to authenticate records. Should you believe that a custodian of records is still necessary to provide testimony, we require domestication of all state subpoenas pursuant to, as applicable, the Uniform Act to Secure the Attendance of Witnesses from Within or Without a State in Criminal Proceedings, 735 Ill. Comp. Stat. 220/1, et seq., or the Uniform Interstate Depositions and Discovery Act, 735 Ill. Comp. Stat. 35/1, et seq. All subpoenas seeking witness testimony must be personally served on NMI at its Illinois offices.

NMI does not provide expert witness testimony.

7. Notice Policy

We reserve the right to notify people who use our service of requests for their information prior to disclosure, unless we are prohibited by law from doing so or in exceptional circumstances as determined in our sole discretion. 

8. Cost Reimbursement

We reserve the right to seek reasonable reimbursement costs for responding to requests for information.

Anti-Harassment and Bullying Policy

Network Merchants, LLC and all its subsidiaries and Affiliates (herewith referred to as NMI, we, our or us) are committed to providing a working environment free from harassment and bullying and ensuring all our employees are treated, and treat others, with dignity and respect. We recognize that harassment and bullying can occur not only among employees but also from Third Parties, and we take such incidents very seriously. 

Purpose

The purpose of this Policy is to set out our commitment to preventing and addressing harassment or bullying may occur by Third Parties such as partners, merchants, vendors, suppliers, visitors to our premises, and any other Third Party involved in our operations (herewith referred to as Third Parties). 

At NMI, we maintain a strict zero-tolerance policy towards harassment or bullying. Harassment, bullying or victimization of any kind will not be tolerated and failure to uphold the dignity and respect of all NMI employees may result in corrective action. All parties are encouraged to report any incident of harassment or bullying involving NMI’s employees. To address and prevent future complaints, we will focus on constructive measures such as providing feedback to customers, collaborating with them to resolve issues, and reporting any serious concerns to the authorities. 

What is Harassment by a third party

Harassment by a Third Party is any unwanted physical, verbal or non-verbal conduct that has the purpose or effect of violating a person’s dignity or creating an intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating or offensive environment for them. A single incident can amount to harassment.

It also includes treating someone less favorably because they have submitted or refused to submit to such behavior in the past.

Unlawful harassment may involve sexual harassment (unwanted behaviour of a sexual nature), or it may be related to age, disability, gender reassignment, marital or civil partner status, pregnancy or maternity, race, colour, nationality, ethnic or national origin, religion or belief, sex or sexual orientation. Harassment is unacceptable even if it does not fall within any of these categories.

Harassment may include, but is not limited to:

  1. unwanted physical conduct or “horseplay”, including touching, pinching, pushing and grabbing;
  2. continued suggestions for social activity after it has been made clear that such suggestions are unwelcome;
  3. sending or displaying material that is pornographic or that some people may find offensive (including emails, text messages, video clips and images sent by mobile phone or posted on the internet);
  4. unwelcome sexual advances or suggestive behavior (which the harasser may perceive as harmless);
  5. racist, sexist, homophobic or ageist jokes, or derogatory or stereotypical remarks about a particular ethnic or religious group or gender;
  6. outing or threatening to out someone as LGBTQ+;
  7. offensive emails, text messages or social media content; 
  8. mocking, mimicking or belittling a person’s disability; or
  9. using your position of authority to offer job benefits or promotions in exchange for sexual favors.

A person may be harassed even if they were not the intended “target”. For example, a person may be harassed by racist jokes about a different ethnic group if the jokes create an offensive environment.

A person may be harassed even if the comments or behavior was not intended to cause harm or offense (i.e. if comments were meant to be a joke).

What is Bullying by a third party

Bullying is offensive, intimidating, malicious or insulting behavior involving the misuse of power that can make a person feel vulnerable, upset, humiliated, undermined or threatened. Power does not always mean being in a position of authority, but can include both personal strength and the power to coerce through fear or intimidation.

Bullying may include physical or psychological threats, overbearing and intimidating levels of supervision or inappropriate derogatory remarks about someone’s performance. Please be aware that harassment and bullying can take place in many forms, from face to face encounters to messages via text, social media platforms or through official communication channels or chats.

Preventing Harassment & Bullying

NMI takes a proactive approach to preventing harassment and bullying and as part of those efforts we offer regular training sessions to all employees about harassment and bullying, including what it is, how to recognise it and how to report it.

What should a third party expect

When we receive a report of Third-Party harassment, NMI’s People Team will carefully initiate an investigation to understand the situation fully. This will involve gathering important information, which may include conversations with the person making the report, any witnesses, and any other individual(s) involved in the incident. We will document all findings and consider any relevant evidence.

Once the investigation is complete, we will share the findings with the appropriate parties and take any necessary actions based on the outcome. Throughout this journey, our People Team is dedicated to creating a respectful and safe workplace for everyone.

Third Parties have a responsibility to conduct themselves in a manner that respects the rights and dignity of all NMI employees. If a Third Party is found to have engaged in harassment or bullying, NMI will take appropriate corrective actions, which may include:

  • Issuing a formal written warning to the individual or entity. Banning the individual or entity from our premises or events.
  • Termination of contracts or business relationships.
  • Reporting the behavior to law enforcement authorities if it constitutes a criminal offense.  

In cases where harassment or bullying by a Third Party leads to emotional distress or damages for our employees, NMI reserves the right to seek restitution from the offending party. This may include claims for damages related to lost wages, emotional distress, or any other applicable remedies under the law.

Retaliation against a complainant will not be tolerated and NMI will take appropriate action against anyone who subjects a complainant to retaliatory conduct. NMI will offer the necessary assistance and support to its employees to protect or enforce the complainant’s rights.

Conclusion

NMI is dedicated to maintaining a work environment free from harassment and bullying, including Third Party harassment. By following this policy and working together, we can create a safe and respectful workplace for all employees. This Policy will be reviewed at regular intervals and will be monitored for effectiveness.

For any inquiries related to the policy, or to report an incident of harassment or bullying, please email NMI’s People Team at peopleteam@nmi.com. We’re here to help and ensure you have all the information you need.
