The Customer shall make its own independent assessment of the adequacy of the internet and of the security procedures made available by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that the selection and use by it of third party security and communications software and third party service providers is the sole responsibility of the Customer, and ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ disclaims all risks related thereto, notwithstanding that ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ may recommend certain security and/or communications software packages. All such software must be interoperable with ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ software. Each of the Customer and ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be responsible for the proper functioning, maintenance and security of its own systems, services, software and other equipment.

Electronic Record Retention.

▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ may retain its copy of any documents or items relating to the Customer’s accounts and Services (as defined below) in a form preserving an image of any such documents or items, including that of the Customer signature (whether electronic, digital, mechanical, magnetic or otherwise) as a regular business record and discard the original documents or items. The Customer waives any objection to the use of such records in lieu of their paper equivalents for any purpose and in any forum, venue or jurisdiction, including, without limitation, objections arising from ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ role or acquiescence in the destruction of the originals.

Electronic Instructions.

▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ may honor any instructions received by telecopier (facsimile), computer, internet or other electronic transmissions if ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ reasonably believes such instructions to be genuine or if such instructions are received in accordance with any security procedures agreed upon by the Customer and ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ or in accordance with any other agreements ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ may have with the Customer regarding the acceptance of such instructions.

Software.

Certain Services may require the Customer’s use of computer software programs (“Software”) to be provided by or through ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, which are proprietary to ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and/or third parties. The Customer’s use of any Software in conjunction with the Services shall constitute the Customer’s consent to any software license, whether in written or electronic form, or to other terms and conditions delivered or made available to the Customer or contained in any applicable agreements.

1. Service. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ will provide to the Customer access to JPMorgan ACCESS (the “Service”), which is a browser-based platform that provides ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ customers with integrated access to their account information and the ability to conduct certain financial transactions from a single application. All transactions and information requests submitted using the Service must be input in such format as is specified by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and must be received prior to ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ deadlines. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ reserves the right to modify the transactions available through JPMorgan ACCESS.

2. System Requirements. In order to communicate electronically with ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ whether via the Internet, or otherwise, to access information or effect transactions with respect to the Service, the Customer shall utilize Software, including: security devices, which may include but shall not be limited to, authentication and/or encryption algorithms, identification codes, passwords, digital signatures and private keys (“Security Device(s)”) in conjunction with the Service. Software shall also include all released modifications or updates, or successor or substitute programs as may be provided by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in its discretion to the Customer, recorded in any manner, and all whole or partial copies thereof in any form or medium (regardless of whether or not such copies are authorized hereunder). Furthermore, the Customer shall be bound by any terms of supplemental license agreement, if any, applicable to Software.

The Customer agrees to, at its sole expense: (a) procure and maintain all hardware, browsers, software and telecommunications equipment necessary to access the Service via the Internet, including any updates or upgrades required by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in order to continue using the Service, in accordance with ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ recommended system configuration; (b) provide ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ with all information reasonably necessary to setup or establish Service on the Customer’s behalf, including but not limited to specifying the country(ies) other than the United States of America (which countries must be approved for accessing the Service via the Internet by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇) in which any User (as

defined below) will access the Service via the Internet and keep ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ informed of any changes in countries where Users might access the Service via the Internet; (c) advise each of its employees, officers, agents or other persons accessing any Service by or on behalf of the Customer (“Users”) of his or her obligations hereunder or under any Service Material including but not limited to only using the Service via the Internet in the United States of America and in the countries approved for such use by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇. Each of the Customer and ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be responsible for the proper functioning, maintenance and security of its own systems, services, software and other equipment.

3. Security Procedures. The Service may be accessed by entering an appropriate user identification code and password (“Access Code”). The Customer agrees to have the appropriate officers within its company review and sign the JPMorgan ACCESS – Client Setup Form, including the designation of at least two security administrators who shall have equal authority (each a “Security Administrator”) in the Security Administrator Designation Form, which is located in the JPMorgan ACCESS – Client Setup Form. The Security Administrators of the Customer agree to perform the duties set forth herein, including identifying the individuals who are authorized to use the Service (“Authorized Users”). Each Security Administrator is also an authorized recipient on behalf of the Customer of (1) all Security Devices and (2) all other notices, documents and correspondence from ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, respecting the Service.

▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall deliver to the Customer’s Security Administrators all documents and correspondence relating to Security Devices. The Security Administrator based upon such documents and correspondence will be required to create or alter certain Security Devices without disclosure to ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇. The Customer’s issuance and dissemination of Security Devices to employees and other persons shall be under the exclusive control of the Customer’s Security Administrators. The Customer acknowledges that the security procedures for the Service have been designed to place the issuance and dissemination of Access Codes to Authorized Users under the control of Security Administrators. The Security Administrators will have the capability and responsibility of identifying Authorized Users who are to receive Access Codes, disseminating and controlling such Access Codes and the applicable JPMorgan ACCESS user entitlements, and restricting an Authorized User’s access to certain Service functions or granting access to all functions in accordance with ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ standard procedures. In addition, if a Security Administrator is to obtain an Access Code to use the Service, other than in the capacity of a Security Administrator, he must obtain authorization for such Access Code via two Security Administrators not including himself. In the absence of a valid designation at any time, ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ may direct materials otherwise deliverable to a Security Administrator to any Authorized Individuals. The Customer is aware that delivery of materials to a single individual poses a security risk to the Customer and assumes all associated risks. The Customer shall notify ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ of any change of a Security Administrator by submission of a new, duly executed, Security Administrator Designation Form.

The Customer agrees that the two Security Administrators shall notify ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, in the manner described above, of any change in user status (e.g. adding a user, changing a user or deleting a user) designated user names, telephone numbers or user functions using the applicable electronic forms function in the Service or by submitting a Security Administrator Designation Form for Additions, Modifications and Deletions in each case setting forth any changes. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ may rely upon a current form until replaced or withdrawn by notice. Any change will be effective promptly following actual receipt and reasonable opportunity for ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ to act thereon. The Security Administrators shall provide to ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, in writing or electronically upon ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ request, a list of persons having been issued passwords and IDs permitting use of Software.

4. Customer Obligations. The Customer acknowledges that security administration is essential to the security of its data and that access to the Software and the Service be strictly limited by the Customer solely to those authorized by the Customer to use it. The Customer agrees to follow all security procedures as provided by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇. Although ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall use reasonable efforts to promptly inform the Customer of a known breach of security affecting the Customer, ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ assumes no duty to discover or report a possible breach of security, unauthorized disclosure or use of any Security Devices. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ reserves the right to change or supplement unilaterally its Security Devices or related procedures as described in this Service Guide. In any such event, ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall endeavor to give the Customer prior written or electronic notice of such changes.

The Customer shall be solely responsible for the genuineness and accuracy, both as to content and form, of all instructions, messages and other communications properly received by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ as contemplated hereby. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ may conclusively presume that all business conducted using an Access Code emanates from an Authorized User and is conducted in the Customer’s name. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ is authorized to honor, rely and act upon any and all information and instructions from Authorized Users, whether or not authorized, which are transmitted in accordance with the agreed upon security procedures. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall have no obligation to act upon any instruction unless and until same is verified in accordance with such security procedures. The Service shall be used by the Customer only after the appropriate Access Code(s) have been created by means of the Security Devices created by the Customer’s Security Administrators. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ may suspend a Security Devise at any time if ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ determines that the security or integrity of a Service is at risk. In connection with the foregoing, the Customer’s Security Administrators shall assure that such password and keys are given to the designated user. The Customer shall assure that Security Devices which are provided for a specific user are given to and used exclusively by that user for the security initialization process and, as required, to log into ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ electronic services. It is understood that the security procedures used by the parties are designed to verify the authenticity of, and not to detect errors in instructions.

5. Secure eMail.

The Customers using the Service will have access to a secured email client (the “e-mail Client”) for the transmission of electronic mail (“e-mail”) between the Customer and ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (“e-mail Service”). The Customer shall use the Service solely for the Customer’s business use. The Customer acknowledges that the e-mail Client is not intended for the transmission of instructions to transfer cash, securities or other assets. The Customer shall not transmit, and ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall have no obligation to act upon, any such instructions. The Customer acknowledges that in the event of the termination or suspension of the Service the Customer will be prohibited from accessing e-mails stored on the designated server.

6. Message Notification:

The Customer may request the transmission of an electronic notification upon the occurrence of certain account-related transactions. Such notification may be sent to devices capable of receiving text messages sent by e-mail, such as alphanumeric pagers and cellular phones. The Customer is responsible for setting up and maintaining the accuracy of the messaging components and conditions which will trigger the transmission of the electronic notification, including but not limited to the e-mail address the Customer designates to receive the information, and ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ will have no liability in connection therewith. Any modification of such messaging components and conditions will be effective when ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ has received same and has had a reasonable opportunity to act upon it.

7. Warranties:

THE CUSTOMER REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS TO ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ THAT: (A) THE CUSTOMER AND ITS USERS WILL ONLY USE THE SERVICE FOR LAWFUL PURPOSES AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ REASONABLE INSTRUCTIONS, RULES, POLICIES, SPECIFICATIONS, TERMS AND CONDITIONS, AND OPERATING PROCEDURES, AS WELL AS ALL ELECTRONIC FUNDS TRANSFER LAWS AND REGULATIONS AND INDUSTRY RULES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE OPERATING RULES AND GUIDELINES OF THE NATIONAL CLEARING HOUSE ASSOCIATION AND CARD ASSOCIATION RULES, IF APPLICABLE, AND WILL NOT VIOLATE ANY LAW OF ANY COUNTRY OR THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF ANY THIRD PARTY; (B) THE CUSTOMER AND ITS USERS WILL NOT (I) PROVIDE, DISCLOSE, DIVULGE OR MAKE AVAILABLE TO, OR PERMIT USE OF THE SERVICE BY, ANY THIRD PARTY; WITHOUT ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OR AS EXPRESSLY AUTHORIZED HEREIN (II) ENGAGE IN SPAMMING, MAILBOMBING, SPOOFING OR ANY OTHER FRAUDULENT, ILLEGAL OR UNAUTHORIZED USE OF THE SERVICE; (III) INTRODUCE OR TRANSMIT, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THROUGH THE SERVICE, OR OTHERWISE, “JUNK MAIL”, “CHAIN LETTERS” ANY VIRUS, WORM, OR OTHER DESTRUCTIVE ELEMENT; (IV) REMOVE, OBSCURE OR ALTER ANY COPYRIGHT NOTICE, TRADEMARKS OR OTHER PROPRIETARY RIGHTS NOTICES AFFIXED TO OR CONTAINED WITHIN THE SERVICE.

WITH RESPECT TO THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE CUSTOMER UNDER THIS SECTION, THE CUSTOMER SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR, AND SHALL INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST, ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, DAMAGES, COSTS, DEMANDS, EXPENSES, LIABILITIES AND LOSSES,

INCLUDING REASONABLE LEGAL FEES AND EXPENSES AND ANY AND ALL FINES AND PENALTIES, ARISING FROM THE (1) USE OF THE SERVICE OR (2) ACCESS OF THE SERVICE BY THE CUSTOMER OR ITS USERS IN GEOGRAPHIC LOCATIONS OTHER THAN THOSE DESIGNATED BY THE CUSTOMER IN WRITING TO ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇. SHOULD THE CUSTOMER RECEIVE NOTICE OF ANY CLAIM REGARDING THE SERVICE, THE CUSTOMER SHALL PROMPTLY PROVIDE ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ WITH A WRITTEN NOTICE OF SUCH CLAIM.

8. Proprietary Rights. All intellectual property rights in or relating to the Service, including any trademarks, service marks, logos, and trade names used in conjunction with the Services hereunder are the property of ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ or its licensors and are protected by applicable copyright, patent, trademark and other intellectual property law. Except as provided herein, the Customer shall not reproduce, transmit, sell, display, distribute, establish any hyperlink to, provide access to, modify, or commercially exploit in whole or in part any part of the Service, without the prior written consent of ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇.

U.S. DOLLAR FUNDS TRANSFER

Credits of Incoming Wire Transfers. Deposits may be made to the Customer’s account by means of transfers of funds from other accounts at the Bank, other financial institutions or other parties. All funds received for credit to the Customer’s accounts will be credited in the same type of funds that ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ receives unless ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ notifies the Customer to the contrary. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ reserves the right to refuse or to limit any such credit. Advices of incoming payment orders will be delivered to the Customer by mail or by such other method as may be agreed upon by the Customer and ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, unless the Customer requests ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ not to deliver such advices.

Issuance of Payment Orders; Cut-Off Times. The Customer may issue payment orders against its accounts with ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ by telephone, tested telex or electronically, as specified in the relevant Implementation Forms, subject to ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ acceptance. The Customer authorizes ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ to comply with all such payment orders. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ will debit the Customer’s account for the amount of each payment order accepted by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇. No restrictions upon the acceptance of payment orders by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ or upon the accounts which ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ may debit will be binding unless agreed to in an Implementation Form or otherwise agreed in writing by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇.

Payment orders and other instructions will be received and processed only on ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ U.S. dollar funds transfer business days (“Banking Days”) and within its established cut-off hours (which may vary depending upon the initiation method). Depending upon the initiation method, payment orders and other instructions received after ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ established cut-off time for such method will either be (a) accepted and processed by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ on the following Banking Day, although ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ will use reasonable efforts to process on the same day, or (b) ineffective, in which case they will have to be re-initiated by the Customer.

Execution of Payment Orders. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ will determine the order in which it processes payment orders. In executing payment orders, ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ may use the payment and communication systems in which ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ participates, such as CHIPS, Fedwire and S.W.I.F.T. and ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ may override instructions of the Customer regarding use of a payment system if ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ deems it appropriate to route such payment order through an alternate equivalent system. Unless otherwise arranged, the Customer will be responsible for identifying the routing (i.e., intermediary and beneficiary banks) of all funds transfers.

In accepting a payment order issued in the Customer’s name, ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ may rely upon the identifying number (such as Fedwire routing number or account number) of the beneficiary, the beneficiary’s bank or any intermediary bank, as instructed. Also, the beneficiary’s bank in the payment order may make payment on the basis of the identifying number even though it identifies a person different from the named beneficiary. Accordingly, the Customer will be responsible for the consequences of any inconsistency between the name and identifying number, as instructed, of any party in such a payment order.

If the Customer’s payment order bears the codeword “PRIORITY” in such field as ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ specifies, ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ will use reasonable efforts to move such payment order to the front of ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ processing queue.

Security Procedures. All payment orders issued in the Customer’s name are subject to verification by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ pursuant to the security procedures specified in the Implementation Form(s) completed and signed by the Customer, or in the Service Guides covering access products used by the Customer.

▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ will deliver test key materials, authentication software and other authentication devices, user IDs, passwords, reference numbers, authorization codes, keys and other security procedure materials

(“Security Materials”) by a mutually agreed upon method to a person designated to receive same on the relevant Implementation Form or to a Security Administrator designated on a form supplied by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ will not accept payment orders using the Security Materials until such Security Materials have been received and acknowledged. It is the Customer’s responsibility to treat the Security Materials with extreme care and to assure that the same are available only to authorized individuals. It is understood that the security procedures agreed upon by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and the Customer are designed to verify the authenticity, and not the correctness, of payment orders and communications requesting amendment or cancellation of payment orders.

Settlement of Funds Transfers; Authorized Account. The Implementation Forms may designate one or more demand deposit accounts at ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ or an affiliate bank approved by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, which will be used for wire transfer transactions initiated by the Customer. The Customer authorizes ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ to debit such account(s), or if no account is designated, any account maintained by the Customer at ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, in connection with such transactions.

Legality. The Customer will promptly procure and maintain in effect any and all licenses, permits or the like required by the governmental or regulatory authorities of any country to which funds transfers or other transactions are directed. The Customer hereby represents and warrants to ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ that no payment order will be for a purpose prohibited by the laws or regulations of the United States or the country of any other party to the transaction, or in violation of United States trade, currency control, foreign asset control or other regulation or governmental order applicable at the date thereof.

▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ will not execute payment orders or effect any other transaction hereunder where the beneficiary or other payee is a person or entity with whom ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ is prohibited to do business by law or regulation or in any case where compliance would, in ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ judgment, conflict with applicable law or good banking practice.

7.	Amendments, Cancellations and Recalls of Payment Orders; Debit Authorizations. The Customer authorizes ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ to (a) accept and act upon requests for amendment, cancellation and recall of funds transfers or (b) debit a the Customer account upon receiving authorization to do so.

(i)

Any request for funds transfer amendment, cancellation or recall and any debit authorization must be given by one of the following methods: (A) tested telex, (B) authenticated S.W.I.F.T. message, (C) telephone at the telephone number designated from time to time by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ for that purpose, or (D) computer, internet or other electronic platform approved by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ for that purpose.

(ii)	Concurrently with any request given by telephone, the Customer must transmit a faxed request signed by an authorized signatory on the designated the Customer account with ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇.

(iii)

In the case of amendment requests given by telephone, ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ will place a callback to an authorized signatory on the designated the Customer account with ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ other than the issuer of the amendment request.

Communications requesting amendment or cancellation of payment orders must be received at a time affording ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ a reasonable opportunity to act prior to ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ execution of the payment order.

If the Customer uses ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ future advising Service, S.W.I.F.T. same day amendment and cancellation Service, or Multibank Payment Service, the provisions relating to amendment and cancellation in the Service Guides for such Services will prevail over this Section 8 to the extent of any inconsistencies.

Notification Request. Upon the Customer’s request given by S.W.I.F.T message in such manner as ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ specifies, electronic notification of the occurrence of account-related activity will be delivered to any party designated by the Customer to receive such notification. Electronic notification may be sent to devices capable of receiving text messages sent by e-mail, such as alphanumeric pagers and cellular phones.

9.	Conflict. In the event of any conflict between these terms and any Funds Transfer Implementation Form, the Funds Transfer Implementation Form will control.
