Exhibit 10.35

This Collection Agency Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of November 25, 2014 (the “Effective Date”), by and between FMMR Investments, Inc., with its principal office at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ (hereinafter referred to as “Client”) and Ad Astra Recovery Service, Inc., with its principal office at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ (hereinafter referred to as “Agency”). Client and Agency are collectively referred to herein as “Parties,” and individually as a “Party,” as required by context.

WHEREAS, Client requires, from time to time, collection services on certain delinquent accounts, and

WHEREAS, Agency is engaged in the business of performing collection services for third parties, and

WHEREAS, Client wishes to retain Agency for the purpose of collecting debts owed to Client by an obligor, i.e. the individual or entity legally liable to Client for payment of the balance on an account, and Agency agrees to be so engaged in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth below.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises, terms and conditions set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

1. REFERRAL OF ACCOUNTS FOR COLLECTION. From time to time and in its sole discretion, Client shall refer legally due and owing unpaid credit accounts (“Referred Accounts”) to Agency for collection of the outstanding balance due and Agency agrees to provide the collection services described in this Agreement on such Referred Accounts (the “Services”). Unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties in writing, those Referred Accounts placed by Client with Agency and the Services performed by Agency shall be governed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

2. RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF CLIENT.

A. Accounts Referred. Client has the discretion to determine the number and types of accounts referred to Agency pursuant to this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to mean that Agency has a right to receive a given volume level of accounts referred to Agency over any period of time.

B. Non-Exclusive Nature of Agreement. Agency understands and agrees that the relationship between Client and Agency is not an exclusive relationship and that Client shall have the right to retain other collection agencies to provide the same services for Client as are described herein. Client is not obligated to and makes no commitment of any kind to Agency as to any minimum number or dollar amount of accounts to be referred to Agency under this Agreement. However, once an account is referred to Agency, Client will cease all further attempts on such Referred Account and Client warrants that it shall not refer and no other collection agencies shall attempt to collect any Referred Account while the Referred Account has been placed with Agency.

C. Account Information. Upon referral of an account to Agency for collection, Client will provide Agency with the following information relative to each Referred Account: the applicable creditor name and the required obligor information, including the obligor’s name, address, phone number(s) and place of employment; the Referred Account number and balance owing; pertinent account history, account memos and documentation (“Account Information”). Thereafter, Client shall provide, in a timely manner, all reasonably necessary assistance, information, and documents that Agency may need to respond to obligor validation requests or discovery inquiries relating to a Referred Account. Client further agrees to provide Agency with information concerning all direct payments, adjustments, and disputes on a Referred Account within a timely manner, not to exceed thirty (30) days.

D. Bankrupt Referred Account. Client shall promptly notify Agency if it receives notification, whether oral or written, of a bankruptcy of an obligor on a Referred Account.

E. Recall of Accounts. Client may recall, by written or verbal notice, any Account previously referred to Agency at Client’s sole discretion and at any time and for any reason (a “Withdrawn Account”). When an account is recalled, Agency shall promptly, and within no more than three (3) business days of issuance of the recall notice, deliver all Account Information and media pertaining to the Withdrawn Account that Client may have provided to Agency. If litigation has been initiated on a Withdrawn Account but not brought to judgment, Agency will cooperate in obtaining documentation needed to substitute legal counsel. If recall occurs after a judgment has been obtained on a Withdrawn Account, Agency will provide Client with all relevant information pertaining to the judgment and will require its attorney on the Referred Account to execute a substitution of attorney if requested by Client. Client agrees to pay any reasonable outstanding legal fees and costs related to a Withdrawn Account at the time a Withdrawn Account is recalled. Notwithstanding Client’s recall of any Referred Account, Agency shall retain the right to receive a Contingent Fee on any payment, settlement, insurance account or judgment earned on a Withdrawn Account, in accordance with the terms in Section 4.D, below, unless other arrangements are made with Client. This section is not a provision for cancelling this Agreement. Client agrees to pay any out of pocket costs, which are commercially reasonable and incurred by the Agency for legal or ancillary services performed on the account.

In addition, if Agency cancels a Referred Account and returns it to Client, Client shall not resubmit such account to Agency without prior written notice.

3. RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF AGENCY.

A. Legal Compliance. Agency shall comply with and abide by all federal, state and local laws and regulations regarding collection agencies and/or governing the collection of debt and consumer credit reporting in the performance of the Services,

C. Agency’s Policies and Procedures. Upon execution of this Agreement and thereafter, upon request of Client, Agency shall provide to Client, complete and current copies of Agency’s training materials, internal controls, and all policies and procedures governing or applicable to the Services to be performed hereunder (collectively, “Agency’s Policies and Procedures”), specifically, but not limited to, those listed on Exhibit 1 attached hereto, as well as any internal reports or reports or findings or results of any examinations or audits received by any third party concerning Agency’s compliance with such Agency’s Policies and Procedures; subject to any limitations on disclosure imposed by law. Agency also agrees to adopt and implement such other and further policies, procedures, and training as reasonably requested by Client from time-to-time in order to comply with Client’s third party vendor management oversight responsibilities.

D. Agency Personnel.

Additionally, Agency shall provide from time to time, upon reasonable request of Client, certification records of Agency personnel in accordance with this Section 3D.

E. Monitoring and Self Correction. Because Collection Laws contain subjective legal standards that prohibit conduct that rises to the level of deceit or harassment, Agency agrees to monitor its Agents, employees and vendors to ensure that their conduct is at all times lawful, honest, courteous and business-like. Whenever Agency self-identifies any issues relating to or determines that it is not in compliance with Collection Laws, Client’s Service Level Agreement and Performance Standards, or the Agency’s Policies and Procedures, it will advise Client and shall immediately correct the conduct or condition that is causing the Agency not to be in compliance with

- 3 -

Collection Laws, Client’s Performance Standards, or Agency’s Policies and Procedures, whether such noncompliance is attributable to a process, procedure or the conduct of an individual Agent or employee of the Agency.

F. Safeguards. Throughout the term of this Agreement, Agency shall implement and maintain appropriate safeguards, as that term is used in § 314.4(d) of the FTC Safeguard Rule, 16 C.F.R. § 314 (the “FTC Rule”), for all “customer information,” as that term is defined in §314.2(b) of the FTC Rule, owned by Client and delivered to Service Provider pursuant to this Agreement.

Agency shall not assign or delegate any portion of the performance of the Services under this Agreement to any third party over which Agency does not have direct control and supervision without the express written consent of Client. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agency may use its own employees or contractors retained by Agency to perform the collection services on Referred Accounts.

I. Trust Account. Agency shall maintain a trust account at an FDIC-insured financial institution in trust for Client into which it shall deposit within two (2) business days of receipt, all payments it receives on Referred Accounts (the “Trust Account”), subject to later remittance to Client in accordance with Section 5, below. Agency shall provide Client with the bank location of the Trust Account, and upon demand, provide Client with account records, statements and deposit receipts. However, for security reasons Agency shall not be required to disclose the Trust Account number to Client. Agency shall immediately notify Client of any changes in the location of the Trust Account. Agency shall not co-mingle funds of its other customers in the Trust Account. Client hereby authorizes Agency to act as Client’s attorney-in-fact for the sole purpose of accepting funds in payment of debts due Client which have been referred to Agency for collection, including endorsements of checks, money orders, and drafts payable to Client, or jointly to Client and Agency, for deposit into Agency’s Trust Account.

J. Settlements. Client authorizes Agency to settle any Referred Accounts, within its reasonable discretion and in good faith to maximize recovery of the balance owing on the Referred Account, without written authorization by Client. Agency agrees to accept payments from obligors via check, debit, credit, recurring ACH, money order, or cash.

All Referred Accounts upon which Agency initiates permitted legal action will be subject to the Contingent Fee gross proceeds, as set forth in Section 4.A, below. Client will be responsible for all legal fees and court costs in connection with Referred Accounts upon which legal action has been authorized by Client. Client shall be reimbursed first for all court costs from any recovered proceeds from the Referred Account prior to calculation of the Contingent Fee. This provision shall not require Client to pay legal fees Agency may incur in connection with the defense of any claims asserted against Agency by an obligor or an alleged obligor.

L. Third Parties. Client has the right to review copies of any agreements, contracts, third party due diligence or any other work Agency has on third party retained by Agency and which Agency shall provide to Client upon Client’s reasonable request.

Agency shall promptly transmit to Client all relevant information regarding the obligor’s bankruptcy. If Agency receives written notice of the obligor’s bankruptcy, Agency shall promptly transmit such notice to Client. If notice of a bankruptcy filing is provided verbally by the obligor or a third party, Agency shall attempt to obtain information regarding the jurisdiction in which the case has been filed and the case number assigned to the obligor. If bankruptcy information cannot be provided, Agency shall request the name and telephone number of the obligor’s attorney and shall request from the attorney a copy of the filed Voluntary Petition or the §341 Notice.

4. COMPENSATION. As its sole compensation for performing the Services under this Agreement Agency shall earn and be paid a Contingent Fee (as defined and calculated herein) for any money collected on a Referred Account of Client.

A. Contingent Fee. For the purposes of this Agreement, the “Contingent Fee” shall be thirty percent (30%) of the gross amount of money collected by Agency on a Referred Account of Client, which Agency is authorized to calculate on the recovered proceeds, and withhold from the money collected on any Referred Account as payment for its services under this Agreement. Pursuant to Section 3.H, above, any collection costs recovered, whether obtained in or out of court judgment shall not be included in the calculation of gross proceeds and Client shall be reimbursed first for all court costs from any recovered proceeds from the Referred Account prior to calculation of the Contingent Fee. Any interest awarded by a court or collected by Agency shall be included in the gross amount of money collected for purposes of calculating the Contingent Fee. The right of Agency to receive the Contingent Fee will apply, regardless of the collection activity conducted as of the date of payment, including whether the Referred Account has been placed with and reviewed by Agency’s attorney(s), a demand letter from the attorney has been sent or a statement of claim has been filed.
