MELIO TERMS OF SERVICE




Last Revision Date: January 24, 2021




Melio Payments, Inc. d/b/a Melio (“Melio”) enables business-to-business
payments. These Terms of Service (the “Agreement”) are a legal agreement among
Melio, Melio’s bank partners, , and you and any person or organization for which
you act. Melio’s current bank partners include Evolve Bank & Trust (“Evolve”)
and Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) (each, a “Bank” and collectively, the “Banks”).
This Agreement governs your use of Intuit Bill Pay powered by Melio and the
associated software and services (collectively the “Services”). PLEASE READ THIS
AGREEMENT CAREFULLY BEFORE USING ANY MELIO SERVICES. If you do not agree to this
Agreement, do not use the Services.

This Agreement provides that all disputes between you and Melio will be resolved
by BINDING ARBITRATION. YOU AGREE TO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO

COURT to assert or defend your rights under this contract, except for matters
that may be taken to small claims court. Your rights will be determined by a
NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR and NOT a judge or jury, and YOUR CLAIMS CANNOT BE BROUGHT AS
A CLASS ACTION. Please review Section 27 (“Dispute Resolution and Arbitration”)
for the details regarding your agreement to arbitrate any dispute with Melio.

As used in this Agreement, the words “you” and “your” refer to you, a User
(defined below) of the Services and the Party agreeing to this Agreement. The
words “we,” “us,” “our” and any other variation thereof refer to Melio and our
affiliates. Please note that each of Evolve and SVB may also enforce any
provisions of this Agreement that relate to the banking services or payment
processing that they provide. Any reference to Melio, Evolve, or SVB in this
Agreement includes our and our affiliates’ directors, officers, employees,
contractors, owners and agents.

 3. OVERVIEW OF MELIO SERVICES.
    
    
    
    
    1. Description of the Services. Melio provides Services which generally
       enable United States-based businesses and freelancers (“Payors”) to
       transmit payments for commercial purposes to United States-based business
       recipients (“Recipients”), including Recipients who do not accept a
       Payor’s preferred payment method, (collectively “Users”). Payors may
       capture a Recipient invoice using their mobile device, upload an invoice
       electronically, import an invoice from certain Intuit accounting
       software, or enter in invoice details manually. Such information may be
       used to generate a bill which can then be synched with certain Intuit
       accounting software.
       
       
       
       
       For access to and use of the Services, Melio may charge Users a fee (the
       “Fee”) at the time of Payment submission.
       
       
       
    
    2. Accepted Payment Methods. Melio enables Payors to transmit payments to
       Recipients via automated clearinghouse (“ACH”), credit or debit card, or
       via wire transfer, as made available in each offering. Recipients may
       receive payments via paper check, electronic check, debit card, ACH
       transfer, wire transfer, or via virtual card number (“VCN”).
       
       1. Melio supports payments from all U.S. financialinstitutions.
          
          
          
       
       2. Cards issued on the following payment networks may be used as payment
          methods via the Services: Visa, MC, Discover, STAR, PULSE and Accel.
          
          
          
    
    3. Fund Ownership.
       
       
       
       
       1. Payments to Recipients (other than Fees) do not pass into Melio’s
          
          legal ownership at any time from payment initiation to successful
          delivery, including any subsequent refunds.
          
          
          
       
       2. FOR TEXAS RESIDENTS ONLY: To the extent that Melio collects payment or
          payment instructions from you for transmission to Recipients, it does
          so on behalf of Evolve as Evolve’s limited payment collection agent.
          Accordingly, payment to Melio shall be considered the same as payment
          made directly by you to Evolve. Upon your delivery of funds to Melio,
          your payment obligation to Evolve is extinguished, and Melio is
          responsible for remitting the received funds to Evolve. If Melio fails
          to remit any such amounts it receives from you to Evolve, Melio is
          solely liable to Evolve for the funds, and you shall not have
          liability thereof.
          
          
          
       
       3. Melio uses master bank accounts at each of the Banks that are held in
          the Banks’ names and owned by the Banks. The account titles also show
          that these
          
          accounts are for the benefit of customers of Melio. You grant Melio
          the right to instruct the Banks on the use of funds in the accounts,
          including to receive funds from you and to then send funds to your
          Recipient based on your instructions. The Banks transfer all funds for
          the benefit of Melio’s customers upon Melio’s instructions.
          
          
          
    
    4. An Independent Third-Party.
       
       
       
       
       1. Melio is an independent, third-party service that is not formally
          affiliated with your Recipients. You acknowledge and agree that your
          use of the Services does not in any way constitute a tri-party
          agreement between you, Melio, and your Recipients.
          
          
          
       
       2. Accordingly, neither Melio nor the Banks haveresponsibility nor will
          have liability for any consequences resulting from your interactions
          or contracts with Recipients, including but not limited to payment
          terms, the proper and timely delivery of goods or services, and any
          associated disputes which may arise. You further acknowledge that your
          use of Melio Services does not alter or affect any Recipient payment
          terms including but not limited to deadlines, payment plans, late
          fees, and refunds. Neither Melio nor the Banks endorse, recommend, or
          bear any responsibility or liability for any products, services or
          statements presented by Recipients. Recipient statements and opinions
          are not representative of Melio or its business partners.

          herein in its entirety.
          
          
          
       
       2. You authorize Melio, directly or through third parties, to make any
          inquiries we consider necessary to verify your or your business’
          identity. This may include asking you for further information,
          requiring you to take steps to confirm ownership of your email
          address, financial instruments, or information associated with your
          business, and verifying your Personal Information and your business’
          information against third party databases or through other sources. If
          Melio cannot verify your or your business’ identity, Melio reserves
          the right to deny you use of the Services or to limit your use of your
          Account.
          
          
          
       
       3. If you as a Recipient receive, in a calendar year (1) more than
          
          $20,000 in payments made through the Services; or (2) more than 200
          individual transactions through the Services, you agree to provide
          Melio with your taxpayer identification number.
    
    4. Linking a Payment Method. Once you have created an Account, you may link
       various payment methods, including your depository accounts with
       financial institutions (each, a “Bank Account”) or credit or debit cards.
       We use Plaid
       
       Technologies, Inc. (“Plaid”) to gather your data from financial
       institutions. By using the Services, you grant Melio and Plaid the right,
       power, and authority to act on your behalf to access and transmit your
       personal and financial information from the relevant financial
       institution. You agree to your personal and financial information being
       transferred, stored, and processed by Plaid in accordance with the Plaid
       Privacy Policy available at https://plaid.com/legal.
       
       Please note that payment methods may be saved to your Account for easy
       reference and submission.
       
       
       
       
       4.4.1. If you are using the “Money by QuickBooks” service, you expressly
       authorize Intuit to share your Money by QuickBooks account information
       with Melio. If you are a Money by QuickBooks User, your Money by
       QuickBooks account will be the only payment method you can use in
       connection with the Services.
       
       
       
    
    5. Payment Method Verification. Upon addition to your Account, your Bank
       Account may be verified to confirm its validity. A temporary, small
       authorization charge may appear on your bank statement. You authorize
       Melio to credit your Bank Account with two (2) different and random
       micro-deposits, which you will be required to enter once prompted through
       the Services. You also authorize Melio to debit your Bank Account for the
       amounts of the two (2) micro deposits within ten (10) business days.
    
    6. Payment Method Representations. When you add a payment method to your
       Account, you agree to the following:
       
       
       
       
       * You have the authority to disclose the payment method information and
         to bind the person or organization for which you act;
       
       * You authorize the initiation of debit or credit entries, as applicable,
         to the payment methods in accordance with instructions inputted through
         the Services, and, if necessary, the initiation of adjustments for any
         transactions debited or credited inerror;
       
       * You acknowledge that transactions initiated from your payment method
         must comply with the provisions of U.S. law;
       
       * Your authorization will remain in effect until not later than thirty
         (30) days after Melio receives written notice from you of your desire
         to cancel; and
       
       * You will not use the Services for personal, family, or household
         purposes.
    
    7. Your Existing Payment Method Terms.
       
       
       
       
       1. All payment method usage associated to payments submitted via the
          Services are subject to existing terms for your payment method,
          
          including any relevant credit or transactional limits, credit and
          interest terms, and rewards programs. Where applicable, Melio (and to
          the extent applicable, the Banks) retains all rights and authority for
          the treatment of your payment methods via the Services, which may
          supersede your payment method program terms. For example, Melio may
          impose a transactional limit on your payment method for payments via
          the Services, which may be a lower value than the amount allowed by
          your program.
          
          
          
       
       2. Payments may only be made to U.S. payment methods. We may, in our sole
          discretion, impose limits on the size, frequency, and timing of
          payments sent through the Services, on a per transaction or a
          cumulative basis, and change those limits at any time.
          
          
          
    
    8. Restrictions on Payment Methods. To prevent fraud and comply with legal
       obligations, we may ask for additional information from you and from
       third parties. We may put your payment or your payment method on hold for
       review. If you do not cooperate with our review process, your payment may
       be delayed or declined. We reserve the right to limit or refuse your use
       of a particular payment method for any reason in our sole discretion. We
       may impose limitations on the size, frequency, and timing of payments. We
       may decline to make payments or otherwise deny you use of the Services,
       and we may decline to explain why.
       
       
       
    
    9. Recipient Setup. To use the Services, a Payor may enter payment
       information for Recipients. The Payor must provide correct and current
       payment information for each Recipient as follows:
       
       * For both check and electronic payments, the Payor must providethe
         Recipient name and remittance address.
       
       * In addition, for electronic payments, the Payor must:
         
         * Invite the Recipient to set up an Account by sending the Recipient an
           e-mail invitation through the Services;
         
         * Input the Recipient’s bank routing number and bank account number
           through the Services;
         
         * Input the Recipient’s telephone number and email address; or
         
         * Confirm existing Recipient details (if they have previously used the
           Services and Melio has retained such Recipient details).
       
       Please note that the ability to effect electronic payment to new
       Recipients will depend on the Recipient’s willingness to provide us and
       the Banks with its banking details. If the Recipient does not provide
       this information, neither
       
       the Banks nor Melio will be unable to complete your transaction
       electronically and we will send such Recipient a paper check.
       
       You are responsible for verifying the accuracy of the foregoing Recipient
       information prior to scheduling payments, and neither Melio nor the Banks
       will have no liability for losses or damages due to your or your
       Recipient’s actions or inactions. If you invite a Recipient to set up an
       Account, it will take several business days to complete the verification
       process required to activate the Account for electronic payments. If you
       input a Recipient’s bank routing number and bank account number on behalf
       of a Recipient, you represent and warrant that you have obtained from the
       Recipient the authorizations set forth in Section 4.6 above.

 5. MOBILE INVOICE CAPTURE
    
    The Services may enable you to upload an invoice using the camera on your
    mobile device or computer (the “Remote Capture Service”).
    
    1. Image Quality. The image of an invoice transmitted using Remote Capture
       Service must be legible and clear. It must capture all pertinent
       information from the front of the item. You authorize us to convert items
       to Image Replacement Documents (“IRDs”) or transmit them as an image. If
       the electronic files and/or images transmitted to us with respect to any
       item do not comply with our requirements for content and/or format, we
       may, in our sole discretion:
       
       * Further transmit the item and data in the form received from you;
       
       * Repair or attempt to repair the item or data and then further transmit
         it;
       
       * Process the item as photocopies in lieu of originals; or
       
       * Return the data and item to you unprocessed.
    
    2. Remote Capture Minimum Hardware and Software Requirements. In order to
       use the Remote Capture Service, you must obtain and maintain, at your
       expense, compatible hardware and software including but not limited to an
       Internet connection and either a mobile phone or computer capable of
       capturing an electronic images.

 6. MAKING PAYMENTS THROUGH THE SERVICES.
    
    
    
    
    1. Payment Submission. Payments can be submitted for immediate or future
       processing via the Services. Payment submission requires at least the
       following to be specified:
       
       * a Recipient;
       
       * a payment method;
       
       * a payment amount; and
       
       * your invoice number.
       
       Any or all of the above fields may be pre-filled for you. As further
       outlined in our Privacy Policy and the Banks’ privacy policies, you agree
       to allow Melio (and to the extent applicable, the Banks) to share this
       information with your payment Recipient.
    
    2. Payment Information. Melio may require additional information from you at
       the time you submit a payment. This may include, but is not limited to,
       requesting additional documentation related to a specific payment or
       additional details regarding the designated Recipient.
    
    3. Satisfactory Goods or Services. By submitting your payment for processing
       through the Services, you agree that the goods or services provided by
       your Recipient in exchange for the payment (minus Fees) have already been
       rendered to your satisfaction. You hereby forfeit any future claims
       regarding insufficient or unexpected quality or untimely delivery of the
       goods and services provided, including those Services rendered by Melio
       in exchange for your payment of fees and those services rendered by the
       Banks.
       
       
       
    
    4. Processing Payments.
       
       
       
       
       1. Payments made through the Services require sufficient time for your
          Recipient to receive your payment and credit your account accordingly.
          To make a payment, use the Services to select the date (“Process
          Date”) on which Melio (or its business partners) will debit your
          payment method to pay a bill or an invoice. The Services will indicate
          the earliest possible Process Date for each payment. We will use
          commercially reasonable efforts to issue payment within one to two
          business days following the Process Date, depending on the size of the
          payment and subject to “payment review,” as described in Section 10
          below.
          
          
          
       
       2. You will be solely responsible for scheduling payments and selecting a
          Process Date for each payment that allows sufficient time for the
          payment to be delivered on or prior to the bill’s due date. Typically,
          it takes two to three full business days after the Process Date to
          post an electronic payment and five full business days to deliver a
          check payment within the territorial United States by first class
          mail. Note, however, that the expected delivery timeframe is a
          projected estimate based on Melio’s historical performance for a given
          disbursement channel, and is subject to change.
          
          
          
       
       3. Payments submitted for immediate processing will require
          
          successful payment method authorization at time of submission, while
          payments marked for future processing will require payment method
          authorization on the Process Date indicated for the payment. If a
          payment method fails to authorize, Melio and the Banks will be unable
          to continue to process your payment, and Melio will notify you via the
          Services.
    
    5. Scheduled Payments.
       
       
       
       
       1. Payments may be submitted with a Process Date in the future
          (“Scheduled Payments”), but must be assigned to a payment method at
          time of submission which remains valid through the payment Process
          Date. The details of a Scheduled Payment, including associated Fees,
          are locked in at time of submission, except where noted otherwise.
          
          
          
       
       2. Prior to its Process Date, a Scheduled Payment may be cancelled or
          edited via the Services. Editing a Scheduled Payment is functionally
          treated as the deletion of the original Scheduled Payment and creation
          of a new Scheduled Payment, and accordingly may result in alterations
          not specifically requested including but not limited to recalculation
          of associated fees (per Section 16.1), and reiteration of any
          applicable payment review processes (per Section 9).
          
          
          
    
    6. Paid Faster. “Paid Faster” is a service available to approved Recipients
       that enables such Recipients to request that a payment be delivered more
       quickly. Paid Faster may be subject to an additional fee which will be
       displayed to an approved Recipient through the Services at the time such
       Recipient requests a Paid Faster payment. In connection with Paid Faster,
       Recipients remain responsible to Melio for chargebacks, clawbacks and ACH
       returns pursuant to Section 14.
       
       
       

 7. PAYMENT AUTHORIZATION. 7.1General Payment Authorization.
    
     1. By providing us with the names and account information of Recipients to
        whom you wish to direct payments, you authorize us and the Banks to
        follow the payment instructions that are received from you. In order to
        process payments more efficiently and effectively, the Banks, at Melio’s
        instruction may submit payments to the best known Recipient address.
        When necessary, the Banks, at Melio’s instruction, may alter payment
        data or data formats or change or reformat your Recipient account number
        to match the account number or format required by your Recipient for
        electronic payment processing.
        
        
        
    
     2. When Melio or the Banks receive a payment instruction, you authorize
        each such party to debit your payment method and remit funds on your
        behalf. You also authorize Melio or the Banks to credit your payment
        method for payments returned to us by the Post Office or Recipient, or
        payments remitted to you on behalf of another authorized user of the
        Services.
    
    
    
    
    7.2 ACH Authorization. Where you choose to pay a Recipient via ACH, you
    authorize Melio or the Banks to debit your payment method in increments or
    as a lump sum and remit funds in accordance with your payment instructions
    through the ACH. You also give Melio or the Banks the right to resubmit any
    ACH debit that is returned for insufficient or uncollected funds, or any
    other reason. You agree that payment transactions will be governed by the
    rules established by NACHA, the Electronic Payments Association, as in
    effect from time-to-time, under which you are an "Originator", Melio is a
    "Third Party Service Provider," and the Banks are the "Originating
    Depository Financial Institution." You are responsible for all claims,
    demands, losses, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and
    costs) that result directly or indirectly from your failure to perform your
    obligations under the NACHA rules and you indemnify Melio and the Banks for
    the same.

 8. TRANSACTION CLASSIFICATION.
    
    
    
    
    1. Cash Advances. Melio will prepare and submit credit card authorizations
       as purchases rather than cash advances. However, in some cases where
       Melio does not have an existing relationship with the merchant, your
       credit card transactions may be treated as a cash advance. If this is the
       case, we cannot support such payment. We will notify you prior to payment
       submission, and you may switch to a different card or opt out of the
       submitting the payment altogether.
    
    2. Authorizations. Treatment of Melio authorizations is managed in the sole
       discretion of the issuing banks. You agree to not to hold Melio or the
       Banks liable for any consequences resulting from issuer treatment of card
       authorizations, which may include but are not limited to cash advance
       fees, impacted reward program earnings, or altered credit programs and
       interest rate terms.
       
       
       

 9. PAYMENT REVIEW.
    
    
    
    
    1. Review. At any time post submission, your payment may be subject to
       review, which serves to better understand the nature of and reason for
       your payment. During this review process and for any reason, Melio or the
       Banks may place a temporary hold on the delivery of your payment for as
       long as reasonably required to conduct an appropriate inquiry regarding
       you, the
       
       Recipient, your business, a bill, payment history, and other relevant
       circumstances and factors.
       
       
       
    
    2. Cooperation. You acknowledge that Melio’s ability to efficiently and
       effectively review your payment is reliant upon your cooperation, and you
       absolve Melio and the Banks from any negative impacts to the delivery of
       your payment arising from delayed, incomplete, or insufficient responses
       to our inquiries.
       
       
       
    
    3. Result of Payment Review. Depending on the results of this review, Melio
       may instruct the Banks to clear the payment, reverse the payment, or hold
       the payment pending instructions from a government agency. Melio also
       reserves the right to cancel any payment. In such cases and as permitted
       by applicable law, your funds will be returned to you via the original
       payment method, or if necessary via other means.

 1.  RETURNED TRANSACTIONS.
     
     
     
     
     Recipients or the United States Postal Service may return payments for
     various reasons such as, but not limited to, Recipient’s forwarding address
     expired, invalid bank routing number, invalid bank account number,
     Recipient remittance address is not correct, Recipient is unable to
     identify an account, or a Recipient account is paid in full. In addition, a
     Recipient may refuse to accept a payment, and neither Melio nor the Banks
     will have liability for any resulting loss or damage. Melio will use
     commercially reasonable efforts to provide you with notice of returned
     payments and will offer you through the Services the choice whether to void
     and credit or void and reissue the payments. You agree that neither Melio
     nor the Banks shall have any liability for any such returned payments.
     Unless otherwise directed, Melio will void such payments. You hereby
     authorize Melio or the Banks to credit such payments to your payment
     method.

 2.  INSUFFICIENT FUNDS.
     
     You agree at all times to maintain sufficient funds in your payment method
     to satisfy all obligations including returns, reversals, and associated
     fees, and to add funds immediately if Melio notifies you that your funds
     are insufficient. Without limiting any other available remedies, if any
     payment initiated from your payment method is returned because of
     insufficient funds, you must reimburse Melio (or to the extent applicable,
     the Banks) for any corresponding payment amount immediately upon demand,
     plus exceptions processing fees, plus any bank fees, charges or penalties
     for return items. Melio or the Banks also reserve the right to debit a
     Recipient’s account for money paid to the Recipient on your behalf if your
     payment is returned because of insufficient funds or any other reason. Each
     of Melio and the Banksreserves the right to withhold funds from a payment
     to a Recipient if the Payor has an outstanding balance with Melio. You
     shall be solely responsible for all penalties, interest charges, late
     payment fees and service fees resulting from such a
     
     debit to the Recipient.

 3.  PAYMENT CANCELLATION REQUESTS
     
     Scheduled payments may be cancelled, rescheduled or modified by following
     the directions through the Services. There is no charge for canceling,
     rescheduling or modifying a payment before it is processed. However, once
     Melio or the Bank have begun processing a payment, it cannot be cancelled,
     rescheduled or modified, and you must submit a stop payment request.
     
     
     

 4.  CHARGEBACKS
     
     
     
     
     In the event that you as Payor initiate a chargeback, clawback, or ACH
     return for a payment that has already been transmitted to the Recipient,
     you agree to assign to Melio any claims against your Recipient associated
     with such chargeback, clawback or ACH return. You further agree that we may
     contact your Recipient directly to request reimbursement for any payment
     that has been transmitted to the Recipient and for which you have initiated
     a chargeback, clawback, or ACH return.
     
     
     
     
     In the event that Melio receives a chargeback, clawback or ACH return, you
     as Recipient authorize Melio to debit your Payment Method on file for the
     amount of the chargeback plus any associated fees or to withhold funds from
     future distributions.
     
     
     

 5.  STOP PAYMENT REQUESTS AND REFUNDS
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     1. Stop Payment Requests.
        
        
        
        
        Melio’s ability to process a stop payment request depends on the payment
        method and whether or not a check has been cleared. Melio and the Banks
        must have a reasonable opportunity to act on any stop payment request
        after a payment has been processed. You must contact Melio to stop any
        payment that has already been processed. Although Melio will use
        commercially reasonable efforts to accommodate stop payment requests,
        neither Melio nor the Banks will have any liability for failing to do
        so. Stop payment requests may be subject to additional charges.
     
     2. Payment Refunds.
        
        
        
        
        1. In certain situations following a payment submission, you may request
           a refund by contacting Melio at support@meliopayments.com. The
           availability of refunds and processes for their execution are
           dependent on the disbursement channels by which payments are
           delivered to Recipients. Melio is unable to issue partial refunds of
           payments. More specific information is provided below in Sections
           15.3 and 15.4.
        
        2. Melio is also unable to initiate refunds in cases where a Recipient
           has already received your payment. If this is the case, you should
           contact your Recipient directly to request a refund, pursuant to
           their payment terms and refund policies.
           
           
           
        
        3. In the event that Melio issues a payment refund, Melio will generally
           refund a proportional amount of the Melio Fee to you, less any
           unrecoverable costs Melio or Evolve may incur; however, Melio will
           not refund any portion of the Melio Fee when you use an American
           Express card to fund your payment. In addition, if you effect a
           payment refund via clawback or chargeback mechanisms, Melio will not
           refund any portion of the Melio Fee.
           
           
           
     
     3. Refunds for Electronic Payments. Melio may refund electronic payments,
        including those delivered via Electronic Fund Transfer (“EFT”), ACH and
        card network providers, prior to their disbursement.
     
     4. Refunds for Check Payments.
        
        
        
        
        1. Melio may refund payments disbursed via check prior totheir deposit
           by your Recipient. If Melio has already sent a check, we may place a
           “stop payment” request to ensure it cannot be deposited. In such
           cases, we suggest that you contact your Recipient to let it know not
           to deposit the stopped check.
           
           
           
        
        2. If your Recipient attempts to deposit a stopped check, it may be
           charged a fee from its bank for the exception, which it may attempt
           to assign to you. You accept the responsibility of notifying your
           Recipient to not deposit your check, and you agree not to hold Melio
           or the Banks liable for any costs you may incur from your Recipient
           in such a case.
           
           
           

 6.  MELIO FEES
     
     
     
     
     1. Service Fees.
        
        
        
        
        1. You understand and agree that Melio may charge Fees for access to and
           use of the Melio Services. Fees will be charged to your payment
           method, either in a separate transaction from any principal payments
           or in a single transaction including both amounts, depending on
           applicable rules.
           
           
           
        
        2. Fees for immediately processed payments are charged in real- time
           upon submission. Fees for Scheduled payments are locked in at time of
           submission and will be charged on the payment’s Process Date. If a
           Scheduled payment is edited prior to its Process Date, the applicable
           Fee will be recalculated based on the presently defined rules.
     
     2. Fee Updates. Fees may vary, depending upon factors including but not
        limited to the payment’s Recipient, the payment method, and other
        variables both which may or may not be controlled by Melio. Fees are
        subject to change at any time without prior notice and are calculated in
        real time and presented to you during review of your payment, prior to
        submission or edit.

 7.  APPLICABLE TAXES AND PENALTIES
     
     
     
     
     1. Taxes. You are responsible for all, if any, applicable taxes arising
        from your use of the Services. You are furthermore responsible for all
        fees, fines, penalties and other liability incurred by Melio, yourself,
        or a third party caused by or arising out of your breach of this
        Agreement, and/or your use of the Services. You agree to reimburse Melio
        or a third party for any and all such liability.
        
        
        
     
     2. Collection of Funds Owed. In the event that you are liable for any
        amounts owed to Melio or the Banks, including for payments forwarded to
        Recipients for which you initiate a chargeback or ACH return, you
        authorize Melio (on its own behalf and on behalf of the Banks) to
        collect such amounts from your default payment method or other available
        payment methods. If you do not have sufficient funds available to
        fulfill such payment, Melio (on its own behalf and on behalf of the
        Banks) may engage in collection efforts and/or other legal actions to
        recover such amounts from you.

     2. Remediation.
        
        
        
        
        1. Melio may request more information relating to your use of the
           Services to seek to identify the restricted activities identified in
           Section
           
           18.1 above (“Restricted Activities”). You agree to cooperate in any

        2. If we have reason to believe that you have engaged in any Restricted
           Activities or that you have used our Services inappropriately, Melio
           or the Banks (to the extent applicable) reserves the right to, in its
           sole discretion and at any time, take any or all of the
           
           following actions:

           * Contact your bank or notify other Users, Recipients, law
             enforcement, or impacted third parties of your actions;
           
           * Take legal action against you.
             
             
             
             
             When not otherwise obligated by regulatory or compliance
             considerations, Melio will provide you with notice of any such
             actions.

 9.  THIRD PARTY SERVICES AND LINKS TO OTHER WEBSITES
     
     
     
     
     The Services may enable you to connect to third-party services or products
     (“Third Party Services”). If you decide to use Third Party Services, you
     will be responsible for reviewing and understanding the terms and
     conditions for these services. We are not responsible or liable for the
     performance of any Third Party Services. Further, you agree to resolve any
     disagreement between you and a third party regarding the terms and
     conditions of any Third Party Services with that third party directly in
     accordance with the terms and conditions of that relationship, and not
     Melio. The Services may contain links to third party websites. The
     inclusion of a link to a third party website does not imply an approval,
     endorsement, or recommendation by Melio. Such third party websites are not
     governed by this Agreement. You access any such website at your own risk.
     We expressly disclaim any liability for these websites. When you use a link
     to go from the Services to a third party website, our Privacy Policy is no
     longer in effect.
     
     Your browsing and interaction on a third party website, including those
     that have a link in the Services is subject to that website’s own terms,
     rules and policies.

 10. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
     
     IN NO EVENT SHALL MELIO, OUR SUPPLIERS AND OUR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS,
     DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, PARENTS, SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES,
     BENEFICIARIES, SUCCESSORS, OR ASSIGNS (COLLECTIVELY, THE “MELIO PARTIES”)
     OR THE BANKS, THEIR SUPPLIERS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS,
     EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, PARENTS, SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, BENEFICIARIES,
     SUCCESSORS, OR ASSIGNS (COLLECTIVELY, THE “BANK PARTIES”) BE LIABLE FOR
     LOST PROFITS OR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES INCLUDING
     LOSS OF INCOME, DATA, PROFITS, REVENUE OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR COST OF
     SUBSTITUTE SERVICES, OR OTHER ECONOMIC LOSS, WHETHER OR NOT MELIO OR THE
     BANKS HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND WHETHER ANY
     CLAIM FOR RECOVERY IS BASED ON
     
     THEORIES OF CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE AND STRICT
     LIABILITY) OR OTHERWISE ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH OUR SERVICES,
     OR THIS AGREEMENT (HOWEVER ARISING, INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE). THE TOTAL
     LIABILITY OF THE MELIO PARTIES (IN AGGREGATE) TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTIES
     IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE IS LIMITED TO THE ACTUAL AMOUNT OF DIRECT DAMAGES
     ACTUALLY INCURRED IN THE SIX (6) MONTHS PRIOR TO THE DATE UPON WHICH THE
     APPLICABLE CAUSE OF ACTION AROSE. FOR TEXAS RESIDENTS ONLY, EVOLVE SHALL BE
     LIABLE FOR ITS FAILURE TO REMIT FUNDS RECEIVED BY MELIO PURSUANT TO
     PARAGRAPH TWO OF SECTION 3.4 TO RECIPIENTS IN COMPLIANCE WITH YOUR
     INSTRUCTIONS; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THE TOTAL LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED THE
     AMOUNT OF THE FUNDS TRANSFERRED TO MELIO BY YOU. SUBJECT TO THE PRECEDING
     SENTENCE, THE BANK PARTIES SHALL HAVE NO OTHER LIABILITY TO YOU UNDER THIS
     AGREEMENT.
     
     Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental
     or consequential damages so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply
     to you. In such case, the liability of the Melio Parties shall be limited
     to the greatest extent permitted under applicable law.

 11. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
     
     
     
     
     1. THE MELIO PARTIES AND THE BANK PARTIES PROVIDE THEIR RESPECTIVE SERVICES
        “AS IS” AND WITHOUT ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF ANY
        KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY. THE MELIO PARTIES AND THE
        BANK PARTIES SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF TITLE,
        MERCHANTABILITY, MERCHANTABLE QUALITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE
        AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. NEITHER THE MELIO PARTIES OR THE BANK PARTIES ARE
        RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR FAILURE TO PERFORM OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE AGREEMENT
        AND DO NOT WARRANT, ENDORSE, GUARANTEE, OR ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY
        PRODUCT OR SERVICE ADVERTISED OR OFFERED BY YOU, MELIO, THE BANKS, OR
        ANY THIRD PARTY.
        
        
        
     
     2. Neither Melio nor the Banks have any control over the products or
        services that are paid for using the Services and Melio nor the Banks
        can ensure that a Recipient you are dealing with will actually complete
        the transaction or is authorized to do so. Melio does not guarantee
        continuous, uninterrupted or secure access to any part of our Service,
        and operation of our site may be interfered with by numerous factors
        outside of our control. Melio will make reasonable efforts to ensure
        that requests for electronic debits and credits involving credit cards
        are processed in a timely manner but Melio makes no representations or
        warranties regarding the amount of time needed to complete processing
        because the Services are dependent upon many factors outside of our
        control, such as delays in the banking system.
        
        Some jurisdictions do not allow the disclaimer of implied warranties, so
        the foregoing disclaimers may not apply to you.
        
        
        

 12. INDEMNIFICATION
     
     
     
     
     You agree to defend, indemnify and hold the Melio Parties and the Bank
     Parties harmless (including payment of reasonable attorney’s fees) against
     any claim or demand (including attorneys’ fees) made or incurred by any
     third party arising out of or relating to (a) your breach of any provision
     of this Agreement; (b) any actions taken by Melio or the Banks pursuant to
     your instructions, including any wage-and- hour law claims; (c) your use of
     the Melio Services or any Evolve services; (d) your obligations to pay fees
     or fines to Melio, the Banks, or any third parties; (e) negligence or
     willful misconduct of your affiliates, employees, contractors, or agents;
     and (f) all third-party indemnity obligations Melio or the Banks incur as a
     direct or indirect result of your acts or omissions (including
     indemnification of any payment card network, card issuer, or intermediary
     bank).

 13. CLOSING YOUR ACCOUNT
     
     You may request the closure of your Account at any time by emailing Melio
     at support@meliopayments.com. Melio also reserves the right to close your
     Account at any time with or without notice to you for any reason (including
     failure to pay Fees or inactivity). You will remain liable for all
     obligations related to your Account even after your Account is closed,
     including any fees or charges already due to Melio.
     
     You may not close your Account to evade an investigation. Any payments
     processed prior to Account closure will be completed by the Services,
     except those that may be cancelled following a payment review, per Section
     10. All scheduled payments for which you have not yet been debited at the
     time of Account closure will be considered cancelled.

 14. MELIO’S SUSPENSION AND TERMINATION RIGHTS
     
     Melio, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to suspend or terminate
     this Agreement, or suspend, terminate, or limit your access to, or use of,
     your Account or some or all of the Services at any time upon notice to you.
     Please note that Melio reserves the right to terminate the Services at any
     time. Melio will try to notify you in advance, but is not obliged to do so.

 15. CONSENT TO ELECTRONIC DISCLOSURES
     
     
     
     
     1. Consent to Communications. Because the Services are provided
        electronically, you agree that Melio may provide important information
        electronically. Melio will issue the following information and
        disclosures (“collectively, “Communications”) electronically via the
        Melio Services or via electronic mail (“email”):
        
        1. This Agreement, the Melio Privacy Policy, any other policies
           
           you agree to, and any amendments, modifications, or supplements to
           these agreements or policies;

           including any required by applicable law;

           respect to claims of error or unauthorized use of the Services;
           
           
           
        
        4. Transaction history information, and
           
           
           
        
        5. Any other communications related to the Services or your Account.
           
           Your consent to do business electronically and our agreement to do so
           covers all transactions you conduct through the Service.
     
     2. No Obligation to Provide Paper Communication. Although Melio reserves
        the right to provide Communications in paper format at any time, you
        agree that Melio is under no obligation to do so. All Communications in
        either electronic or paper format will be considered to be "in writing."
        You should print a paper copy of this Agreement and any Communication
        that is important to you and retain the copy for your records. If you do
        not wish to receive this Agreement or the Communications electronically,
        you may not use the Services.
        
        
        
     
     3. Withdrawal of Consent. You can withdraw your consent to receive most
        Communications from Melio by emailing us at support@meliopayments.com or
        following the unsubscribe procedure contained in any Communication you
        receive from us. However, if you withdraw your consent, you may no
        longer be eligible to use certain portions of the Services. Melio also
        reserves the right to terminate your Account if you withdraw consent to
        future electronic Communications. Any withdrawal of your consent to
        receive electronic Communications will be effective only after Melio has
        a reasonable period of time to process your withdrawal, which period of
        time shall be no longer than fifteen (15) days, or such other time as is
        appropriate under the circumstances, as determined by Melio in its sole
        discretion. Withdrawing your consent will not affect the completion of
        pending payments or the validity of completed payments.
     
     4. Requesting Paper Documents. You have a right to receive Communications
        in paper form. If, after you consent to receive Communications
        electronically, you would like a paper copy of a Communication we
        previously sent you, you may request a copy within 180 days of the date
        we provided the Communication to you. Melio will provide paper copies
        free of charge. Requests to receive any paper copy may be made by
        mailing a written request to: 142 W 57th St, New York, NY 10019. We will
        
        provide a replacement Communication within fifteen (15) business days.
        In order for us to send you a paper copy of a Communication, you must
        have a current mailing address on file in your Account.
     
     5. Hardware and Software Requirements. In order to access and retain an
        electronic record of Communications, you will need: a computer, a
        monitor, a connection to an Internet service provider, Internet browser
        software that supports 128-bit encryption, and an email address. By

        promotional texts, you may text “STOP” to 347-706-5297 from the mobile

 17. DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION
     
     
     
     
     1. Governing Law and Forum. This Agreement will be governed by and
        construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without
        
        reference to conflict of law provisions. Any action, proceeding,
        arbitration hearing or mediation relating to or arising from this
        Agreement must be brought, held, or otherwise occur in San Francisco
        County, California.
     
     2. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL AND CLASS ACTIONS. PLEASE READ THIS PROVISION
        CAREFULLY. IT PROVIDES THAT ANY CLAIM MAY ONLY BE RESOLVED BY BINDING
        ARBITRATION AND THAT (i) YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO HAVE A TRIAL BY
        JURY TO RESOLVE ANY CLAIM ALLEGED AGAINST THE MELIO PARTIES; (ii) YOU
        ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO HAVE A COURT RESOLVE ANY CLAIM ALLEGED
        AGAINST THE MELIO PARTIES; (iii) YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO SERVE
        AS A REPRESENTATIVE, AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, OR IN ANY OTHER
        REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, AND/OR TO PARTICIPATE AS A MEMBER OF A CLASS OF
        CLAIMANTS, IN ANY LAWSUIT OR ARBITRATION FILED AGAINST MELIO AND/OR
        RELATED THIRD PARTIES.
        
        In the event of a dispute, claim, or controversy (“Claim”) between you
        and Melio, or you and one or more Banks, arising from or relating in any
        way to this Agreement, the Services, or to the relationship formed
        between the parties as a result of this Agreement, including Claims
        regarding the applicability of this arbitration clause or the validity
        of the entire Agreement, the Claim shall be resolved exclusively and
        finally by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration
        Association (“AAA”) under the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules. All
        Claims are subject to arbitration, no matter what theory they are based
        on. This includes Claims based on contract, tort (including intentional
        tort), fraud, agency, your or our negligence, statutory or regulatory
        provisions, or any other source of law. Claims and remedies sought as
        part of a class action, private attorney general, or other
        representative action are subject to arbitration on an individual
        (non-class, non-representative) basis. You and Melio and you and one or
        more Banks (as the case may be) will agree on another arbitration forum
        if the AAA ceases operations. The arbitration will be conducted before a
        single arbitrator and will be limited solely to the Claim between you
        and Melio or you and one or more Banks. The arbitration, or any portion
        of it, will not be consolidated with any other arbitration and will not
        be conducted on a class-wide or class action basis. The prohibition
        against class action contained in this Section 27 shall be non-severable
        from the remainder of this Section 27.
     
     3. Arbitration Terms. If either party prevails in the arbitration of any
        Claim against the other, the non-prevailing party will reimburse the
        prevailing party for any fees it paid to the AAA in connection with the
        arbitration, as well as for any reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by
        the prevailing party in connection with such arbitration. Any decision
        rendered in such arbitration proceedings will be final and binding on
        the parties, and judgment may be entered in a court of competent
        jurisdiction. Rules and forms of the AAA may be obtained and Claims may
        be filed at any AAA office, www.adr.org, or 335 Madison Avenue,
        
        New York, NY 10017, telephone 1-800-778-7879. This arbitration agreement
        is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce, and
        shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16. This
        arbitration agreement applies to all Claims now in existence or that may
        arise in the future. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to
        prevent any party’s use of (or advancement of any Claims, defenses, or
        offsets in) bankruptcy or repossession, replevin, judicial foreclosure
        or any other prejudgment or provisional remedy relating to any
        collateral, security, or other property interests for contractual debts
        now or hereafter owned by either party to the other. IN THE ABSENCE OF
        THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, YOU AND ONE OR MORE BANKS AND YOU AND EVOLVE
        MAY OTHERWISE HAVE HAD A RIGHT OR OPPORTUNITY TO LITIGATE CLAIMS THROUGH
        A COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR A JURY AND/OR TO PARTICIPATE OR BE REPRESENTED
        IN LITIGATION FILED IN COURT BY OTHERS (INCLUDING CLASS ACTIONS), BUT
        EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED ABOVE, THOSE RIGHTS, INCLUDING ANY RIGHT TO
        A JURY TRIAL, ARE WAIVED AND ALL CLAIMS MUST NOW BE RESOLVED THROUGH
        ARBITRATION.

 18. RELEASE OF MELIO AND THE BANKS
     
     If you have a Claim with one or more Recipients or other third parties, you
     release Melio and the Banks (and their respective officers, directors,
     agents, joint ventures and employees) from any and all claims, demands and
     damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature arising out of
     or in any way connected with such Claims.

 19. RESPONSIBILITY FOR COMPLIANCE WITH EMPLOYMENT LAW
     
     To the extent that you use Melio to issue checks or payments to independent
     contractors, you expressly acknowledge and agree that you (not Melio and
     not the Banks) are responsible for compliance with all wage and hour laws,
     including but not limited to compliance with Cal. Labor Code § 2750.3 and
     all applicable laws regulating the time, place, and manner of payments for
     their service. Melio provides a means for transmitting funds. However, you
     (not Melio and not the Banks) are responsible for complying with all laws
     pertaining to the classification of independent contractors and payment for
     their services.

 20. GENERAL
     
     
     
     
     1. Complete Agreement. This Agreement together with any other Melio
        documents, policies and/or agreements referenced herein sets forth the

        and you and the Banks with respect to banking services or payment
        processing services. The following sections of this Agreement and all
        other terms which by their nature should survive, will survive the

        (Disclaimer of Warranties), 27 (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration), 28
        (Release of
        
        Melio and the Banks), and 30 (General). If any provision of this
        Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall
        be struck and the remaining provisions shall be enforced.
     
     2. Intellectual Property. “Melio”, and all logos related to Melio, are
        either trademarks or registered trademarks of Melio or its licensors.
        You may not copy, imitate or use them without Melio's prior written
        consent. In addition, all page headers, custom graphics, button icons,
        and scripts are service marks, trademarks, and/or trade dress of Melio.
        You may not copy, imitate, or use them without our prior written
        consent. All right, title and interest in and to the Melio website, any
        content thereon, the Services, the technology related to the Services,
        and any and all technology and any content created or derived from any
        of the foregoing, is the exclusive property of Melio and its licensors.
     
     3. Force Majeure. Neither Melio nor the Banks shall be liable for any
        issues or delayed performance caused by circumstances beyond Melio's or
        the Banks’ reasonable control, including without limitation, acts of
        God, acts of government, flood, fire, earthquakes, civil unrest, acts of
        terror, strikes or other labor problems, service provider failures or
        delays.
     
     4. Assignment. You may not transfer or assign any rights or obligations you
        have under this Agreement without Melio's prior written consent. Melio
        reserves the right to transfer or assign this Agreement or any right or
        obligation under this Agreement at any time.
     
     5. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be contrary
        to law, such provision shall be changed and interpreted so as to best
        accomplish the objectives of the original provision to the fullest
        extent allowed by law and the remaining provisions of this Agreement
        shall remain in full force and effect.
     
     6. No Waiver. If Melio fails or delays in exercising any right, power or
        remedy or to take action against any breaches of this Agreement, it does
        not mean that it waives its right at a later time to enforce the same.
     
     7. Contacting Melio. Unless otherwise stated in this Agreement, notices,
        inquiries, and requests to Melio should be emailed to
        support@meliopayments.com. Please note that email communications sent to
