You acknowledge that any such electronic mail communication or other means of communication will be made available for your benefit and convenience, that any Payroll Information, entries or other instructions communicated to FINSYNC will be deemed to have been fully authorized by you and you shall be fully responsible for the accuracy of such information including, without limitation, any IRS or other penalties and/or interest arising therefrom; and that, notwithstanding such deemed authorization, FINSYNC may in its sole discretion refuse to accept or act upon any such instructions
FINSYNC, its employees and agents will hold in strict confidence all data furnished by you or produced by FINSYNC under this Agreement; provided, however, that such parties will not be held liable if such data is released through other sources, or if FINSYNC, its employees and agents release the data because of a reasonable belief that you have consented to such disclosure.
Payroll Authorizations
FINSYNC will verify the authenticity of an instruction approving, releasing, cancelling or amending the Payroll Information used to create Entries (each, a “Payment Order”) to be originated by FINSYNC using the authorization procedures described herein. FINSYNC does not verify or review Payment Orders for the purpose of detecting any errors. You will be bound by any Payment Order received and verified by FINSYNC in compliance with the designated authorization procedure, and you shall indemnify and hold FINSYNC harmless from and against any loss suffered or liability incurred by, or arising from, the execution of a Payment Order in good faith and in compliance with such procedures.
If a Payment Order describes the receiver inconsistently by name and account number (i) payment may be made on the basis of the account number even if you identify a person different from the named receiver or (ii) FINSYNC may in its sole discretion refuse to accept or may return the Payment Order. If a Payment Order describes a participating financial institution inconsistently by name and identification number, the identification number may be relied upon as the proper identification of the financial institution. If a Payment Order identifies a non-existent or unidentifiable person or account as the receiver or the receiver’s account, FINSYNC may in its sole discretion refuse to accept or may return the Payment Order.
Bank Account Debiting
On or prior to your payroll direct deposit and/or payroll tax deposit date or other applicable settlement or due date, you authorize FINSYNC to initiate debit Entries to your designated bank account specified by you through the Payroll Processing Service (your “Bank Account”) at the depository financial institution the routing number of which is given above (your “Bank”), and to debit your Bank Account in such amounts as are necessary to (i) fund your direct deposits, (ii) pay any fees or charges associated with the Payroll Processing Service, (iii) pay your payroll taxes, (iv) pay any debit, correcting or reversing entry initiated pursuant to this Agreement which is later returned to FINSYNC, and (v) pay any other amount that is owing under this Agreement or in connection with the Payroll Processing Service. This authorization is to remain in full force and effect until FINSYNC has received written notice from you of termination in such time and such manner as to afford FINSYNC and your Bank a reasonable opportunity to act upon it. You will maintain in your Bank Account as of the applicable settlement date and time immediately available funds sufficient to cover all credit entries you originate through FINSYNC. Your obligation to pay FINSYNC for each credit entry matures at the time FINSYNC transmits or otherwise delivers the credit entry to the Automated Clearing House (“ACH”) or gateway operator and is unaffected by termination of the Payroll Processing Service. FINSYNC may set off against any amount it owes to you in order to obtain payment of your obligation as set forth in this Agreement. You acknowledge that the origination of ACH transactions to its account must comply with the provisions of U.S. law. Amounts withdrawn for payroll taxes will be held by FINSYNC at FINSYNC’s financial institution (the “Payroll Tax Account”) until such time as those payments are due to the appropriate taxing agencies, and no interest will be paid to you on these amounts.
If you do not have sufficient funds in your Bank Account to pay disbursements, fees, payroll taxes or any other amounts due under this Agreement at the time required, or if you refuse to pay, FINSYNC may (i) debit the Payroll Tax Account or any other account owned in whole or in part by you to pay disbursements, fees or charges, payroll taxes, or other amounts due, (ii) refuse to pay any unremitted payroll taxes, in which case the payroll tax liability will become your sole responsibility, (iii) refuse to perform further services, and/or (iv) immediately terminate this Agreement. FINSYNC may assess finance charges on any amounts owing and unpaid ten (10) days after demand. FINSYNC may recover from you any costs including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expert witnesses’ fees FINSYNC may incur in connection with any termination of this Agreement or collection of amounts due hereunder
ACH Originating
The Payroll Processing Service will enable you to enter the Payroll Information and to approve and submit it to FINSYNC for creation, formatting and transmission of Entries in accordance with the ACH Rules (as defined below). FINSYNC may reject any Payroll Information or Entry which does not comply with the requirements in this Agreement or the ACH Rules or with respect to which your Bank Account does not contain sufficient available funds to pay for the Entry. If any Payroll Information or Entry is rejected, FINSYNC will make a reasonable effort to notify you promptly so that you may correct such Payroll Information or request that FINSYNC correct the Entry and resubmit it. A notice of rejection will be effective when given. FINSYNC will have no liability to you by reason of the rejection of any Payroll Information or Entry, the fact that notice is not given at an earlier time than that provided for in this Agreement or for any loss resulting from FINSYNC’s failure to provide notice. If you request that FINSYNC repair an Entry on your behalf, FINSYNC may attempt to do so; provided, however, that FINSYNC will not be liable for its failure to make any requested repair.
You will have no right to cancel or amend any Payroll Information received by FINSYNC after it has been approved by your Payroll Administrator and submitted to FINSYNC. FINSYNC will use reasonable efforts to act on such request prior to transmitting the Entries to the ACH or gateway operator, but will have no liability if the cancellation or amendment is not affected. You will reimburse FINSYNC for any expenses, losses or damages FINSYNC may incur in effecting or attempting to affect your request. Except for Entries created from Payroll Information that have been reapproved and resubmitted by you in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, FINSYNC will have no obligation to retransmit a returned Entry to the ACH or gateway operator if FINSYNC complied with the terms of this Agreement with respect to the original Entry
FINSYNC will process the Payroll Information and Entries in accordance with its then current processing schedule, provided (i) the Payroll Information is approved by your Payroll Administrator and received by FINSYNC no later than your applicable cut-off time on a business day and (ii) the ACH is open for business on that business day. If FINSYNC receives approved Payroll Information after the cut-off time, FINSYNC will not be responsible for failure to process the Payroll Information on that day. If any of the requirements of clause (i) or (ii) of this Subsection are not met, FINSYNC will use reasonable efforts to process the Payroll Information and transmit the Entries to the ACH with the next regularly scheduled file created by FINSYNC, which is on a business day on which the ACH is open for business
Origination, receipt, return, adjustment, correction, cancellation, amendment and transmission of Entries must be in accordance with the Operating Rules of the ACH in which FINSYNC is a participant and, with respect to credit entries which constitute Payment Orders, Article 4A of the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in the state whose law governs this Agreement, as both are varied by this Agreement, and as both are amended from time to time (the “ACH Rules”). You acknowledge that you have had an opportunity to review and agree to comply with and be bound by the ACH Rules and all future amendments.
Any credit FINSYNC gives to you is provisional until FINSYNC receives final settlement and the Entry for which credit was given is deemed to be finally paid as provided in this Agreement, the ACH Rules and all laws, rules and regulations governing any aspect of the Entry, including the laws, rules and regulations of the country to which the Entry was sent. If FINSYNC does not receive final settlement, it is entitled to a refund from the credited person and you will not be deemed to have paid that person. Upon request, FINSYNC will make a reasonable effort to reverse an Entry, but will have no responsibility for the failure of any other person or entity to honor your request. You agree to reimburse FINSYNC for any expenses incurred in attempting to honor such request
FINSYNC may, in its sole discretion, temporarily or permanently suspend providing the Payroll Processing Service to you, without liability, if FINSYNC has reason to believe that you have breached any of foregoing representations and warranties in this paragraph. You acknowledge that you are the originator of each Entry and that under the ACH Rules, FINSYNC makes certain warranties with respect to each Entry. You agree to reimburse FINSYNC for any loss FINSYNC incurs, including its reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses, as the result of a breach of a warranty made by FINSYNC unless the breach resulted solely from FINSYNC’s own gross negligence. You acknowledge that under the ACH Rules, FINSYNC indemnifies certain persons. You agree to reimburse FINSYNC for any loss FINSYNC incurs, including its reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses, as the result of the enforcement of an indemnity, unless enforcement resulted solely from FINSYNC’s own gross negligence.
Taxes; Liability
In order to use the Payroll Processing Service, you must submit accurate wage and payroll information to FINSYNC during the enrollment process. FINSYNC will not be liable for any penalty, interest or other liability that results from inaccurate or incomplete information you supply. The wage and payroll information must be reconciled with your payroll tax returns for the current calendar year and your wage and payroll tax information for the current quarter. Thereafter, you shall timely and accurately update all wage and payroll information as necessary to reflect changes and respond with additional information requested from time to time by FINSYNC. It is your responsibility to submit complete and accurate information to FINSYNC in connection with the Payroll Processing Service. Any penalty or interest incurred due to inaccurate information provided by you will be your sole responsibility. You further agree to hold FINSYNC harmless from such liability. FINSYNC, at its option, may decide not to file your payroll tax returns, pay your payroll taxes or otherwise process your payroll if there are any unresolved problems with any information requested by FINSYNC or submitted by you. FINSYNC’s sole liability and your sole remedy for FINSYNC’s negligent failure to perform the payroll tax portion of the Payroll Processing Service shall be (i) FINSYNC will remit the payroll taxes received from you to the appropriate taxing authority and (ii) FINSYNC will reimburse you or pay directly to the appropriate taxing authority any penalties resulting from such negligent error or omission by FINSYNC.
You are responsible for: (i) depositing any FICA, Federal, State and Local withholding liabilities incurred to date (before the payroll processing with FINSYNC); (ii) submitting any payroll returns to tax agencies (state, federal, and/or local) that are now due; and (iii) cancelling any prior payroll service or leasing agency.
Cost of Payroll Processing Service
You agree to pay the fees for the Payroll Processing Service in accordance with applicable fee schedule, which is currently $0.50 per direct deposit and $4.00 per employee per pay run for tax reporting and remittance services. You agree to reimburse FINSYNC for any sales, use and similar taxes arising from the provision of the Service that any federal, state or local governments may impose. FINSYNC may charge additional fees for exceptions processing, setup and other special services. FINSYNC reserves the right to change the schedule of fees. You will be notified of any change in fees at least 30 days in advance of the effective date. If a fee increase or change to this Agreement is not acceptable, you may cancel the Payroll Processing Service as provided herein prior to the time when it takes effect. Your continued use of the Payroll Processing Service constitutes your agreement to those changes. If FINSYNC is unable to collect fees due because of insufficient funds in your Bank Account or for any other reason, you must pay the amount due immediately upon demand, plus any applicable exceptions processing fees, bank fees or charges for return items, plus interest at 8% annually, plus attorney’s fees and other costs of collection as allowed by law. In addition, FINSYNC may suspend the Payroll Processing Service or terminate this Agreement and avail itself of any other available remedy. FINSYNC also reserves the right to make any appropriate reports to credit reporting agencies, financial institutions, tax agencies and law enforcement authorities, and cooperate with them in any resulting investigation or prosecution.

FINSYNC may terminate or temporarily suspend your access to the Payroll Processing Service in the event that: (i) you breach any material provision of this Agreement that, (if it is capable of being cured) is not cured within 10 days from notice to you (5 days in the case of non-payment); or (ii) FINSYNC determines that your actions are likely to cause legal liability for FINSYNC or that you have misrepresented any data or information required by FINSYNC in connection with the Payroll Processing Service or at any other time. FINSYNC may immediately terminate this Agreement without notice to you if you file, or have filed against you, a petition under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or a similar state or federal law. The termination of the Payroll Processing Service or this Agreement will not affect your or FINSYNC’s rights with respect to transactions which occurred before termination. Upon any termination of the Payroll Processing Service, your right to access and use the Payroll Processing Service will automatically terminate, and you may not continue to access or use the Payroll Processing Service. FINSYNC will have no liability for any costs, losses, damages, or liabilities arising out of or related to FINSYNC’s termination of this Agreement.
Indemnity; Limitations of Liability

In no event will FINSYNC’s or any other Indemnified Party’s liability for any act or omission relating to the Payroll Processing Service exceed the total charge for services provided for the six (6) month period immediately preceding such act or omission by FINSYNC. IN NO EVENT WILL FINSYNC OR ANY OTHER INDEMNIFIED PARTY HAVE LIABILITY FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR INDIRECT LOSS OR DAMAGES REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH DAMAGES ARE BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER THEORY OR FORM OF ACTION OR WHETHER FINSYNC OR ANY OTHER INDEMNIFIED PARTY KNEW OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN OF THE LIKELIHOOD OF SUCH DAMAGES IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

EXHIBIT D
Financing Terms of Use
Description of Service
FINSYNC’s financing service (“Financing Service”) allows you to request FINSYNC, acting as your authorized agent, to share a financing application with members of the FINSYNC Lending Network. FINSYNC will direct financing applications first to the bank or credit union associated with the applicant’s profile, if the bank or credit union is part of the FINSYNC Lending Network, and then allow the financial institution 24 hours to match or beat any other financing option available by other members of the FINSYNC Lending Network. FINSYNC utilizes cash flow metrics and an eligibility matrix created by the members of the FINSYNC Lending Network in order to best match applicants with the best financing options on an automated basis.
Definitions
“Financing application” is an application completed on the FINSYNC platform by the applicant profile owner for the purposes of requesting access to various financing products for business purposes.
Information and Representations
You certify that all of the information you provide will be accurate and complete (including your name, address, Payment Account information) and that you will update such information, as needed, to maintain its accuracy. You authorize us to use the data you provide to perform background checks. If you fail to provide accurate and complete information during Account enrollment for the Financing Service, we will suspend your use of the Financing Service.
You certify that you own each Payment Account you enroll with the Financing Service, that you have the authority to use the Payment Account for the Financing Service and no other person’s authorization is needed to approve the use of the Payment Account.
Account Ownership Verification
When you enroll an account for the Financing Service, you authorize us to obtain information from any financial institutions holding the Payment Accounts to confirm your ownership. You also authorize us to request information regarding you and your Payment Accounts from other third party sources to verify your identity, account ownership, protect against fraud, comply with applicable law or otherwise as necessary to provide the Financing Service to you. You authorize us to make a micro- deposit (less than $1.00) and a single debit of the same amount to each Payment Account you enroll in the Financing Service. We will verify the amount deposited using the financial account information from your Payment Account’s financial institution that you have authorized us to retrieve through the FINSYNC Service. If the micro-deposit does not post to your account for any reason, and the subsequent debit is successful and results in an overdraft or NSF, we will be held harmless for the results of this condition.
Financing Process
FINSYNC will provide lenders access to certain information contained in the FINSYNC Profile based on consent by applicant for the sole purpose of providing financing options to the applicant.
