2.1.1 Business Purpose. You acknowledge and agree that funds received under this Agreement are for business purposes only and any proceeds from this Agreement, including the Loan Amount, will not be used for personal, family or household purposes. You understand that you are not receiving a consumer loan, and that statutory and regulatory protections for consumers will not apply to your loan. You also understand that Bank (and/or its agents and assignees) will not confirm whether the use of any funds provided conforms to this section. You agree that a breach of the provisions of this section will not affect the Bank’s (and/or any of its agents or assignees) right to (i) enforce your promise to pay for all amounts owed under this Agreement, regardless of the purpose for which the funds are in fact obtained or (ii) use any remedy legally available to Bank (and/or its agents and assignees), even if that remedy would not have been available had the funds been provided for consumer purposes.

2.1.2 Obligation to Repay. You agree to repay the Loan Amount plus the Origination Fee (“Loan Balance”) and in order to satisfy the repayment obligation, you direct Square, Inc., on behalf of Bank or its agents and assignees, to withhold the Repayment Rate from your gross Receivables generated during each day you process payments with Square, Inc. while you have an outstanding Loan Balance. Square, Inc. agrees to withhold the Repayment Rate from your gross Receivables balance on behalf of Bank (or its agent or assignee). Your repayments shall be applied to and reduce the amount of your Loan Balance until such balance is paid in full. Your repayments begin on the Repayment Start Date.

2.1.3 Minimum Payment Obligations. You will (i) repay a minimum of 1/18th of the initial Loan Balance for each sixty (60) day period starting from the Origination Date and (ii) repay the Loan Balance in full within 18 months from the Origination Date (the “Term”).

Prepayments on your loan will be deducted from your Square Account balance first, and any remaining amount will be debited from your Linked Bank Account.

2.1.5 ACH Authorization. You authorize Bank (including its agents and assignees) to make an initial credit to your Linked Account to fund your loan or where otherwise required under this Agreement. In the event you decide to prepay your Loan Balance, or need to make payment to satisfy your minimum payment obligations or other amounts due under the terms of this Agreement, you authorize Bank (including its agents and assignees) to debit any Linked Account. You acknowledge and agree to be bound by NACHA’s rules for business-related ACH debits and credits.

2.1.6 Cancellation Period. You may cancel this Agreement by contacting Square Capital through Square Capital’s Support Center anytime prior to the Repayment Start Date. If you cancel, Bank (including its agent and assignee) will debit the Loan Amount from your Linked Account. Your loan will not be deemed cancelled if the debit to your Linked Account is unsuccessful. You will return the Loan Amount to Bank, less amounts used to satisfy any existing obligations pursuant to 6.8 that will be reinstated, even if you no longer have the funds in your bank account. In the event that you have any Existing Obligation Amounts pursuant to 6.8 and you elect to cancel this Loan Agreement (anytime prior to the Repayment Start Date), you hereby agree that any (i) Existing Obligation Amount remains due and payable, and (ii) terms, conditions, representations and covenants agreed to under any existing agreement will apply immediately upon cancellation of this Agreement.

6.1.1 Bank has appointed Square Capital to act as its “Collateral Agent” for purposes of representing Bank in connection with the security interest granted by you pursuant to this Section 6.1 and Square Capital has accepted such appointment and has agreed to act as Collateral Agent for the Bank and its successors and assigns as contemplated by this Section 6.1.

6.1.2 To secure your obligations to repay the Loan Balance, you hereby grant, assign and pledge to Square Capital, as Collateral Agent, a continuing and unconditional lien on and security interest in and to all your business assets, including your Receivables and any other funds in your Square Account.

6.1.3 This Agreement shall constitute written notice to all interested parties of the Collateral Agent’s security interest in all your business assets, including your Receivables and your Square Account. Square, Inc. agrees to the lien and security interest of Square Capital (as Collateral Agent for the Bank or its assignees) on and in the Receivables and any other funds credited to your Square Account and agrees that it shall hold your interest in the Receivables and any other funds credited to your Square Account for the benefit of Square Capital, as Collateral Agent, and shall, subject to the terms hereof, comply with Square Capital’s directions with respect to the Receivables and other funds credited to your Square Account.

6.1.4 You acknowledge and agree that so long as any of your Loan Balance remains outstanding, your Square Account and any funds on deposit from time to time therein shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Collateral Agent. Neither you nor any other person or entity, acting by, through or under your business, shall have any control over the use of, or any right to withdraw any amount from your Square Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 6.1.4 shall be deemed to be waived by Bank until such time as the occurrence of a breach of your obligations under this Agreement.

6.1.5 The security interest created in favor of the Collateral Agent by this Agreement secures the payment and performance of all of your Loan Balance under this Agreement and in respect of the Square Account (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) so long as any of the Loan Balance remains outstanding.

6.2 Processing and Other Fees. Your Repayment Rate will be calculated based on your gross Receivables processed through Square, Inc. Merchant shall be solely responsible for the payment of any processing fees and other charges imposed in accordance with the Square, Inc. General Terms of Service and any applicable Additional Terms or any other agreement between Merchant and Square, Inc.

6.3 Merchant’s Transactional Information. Merchant hereby agrees to provide to Bank and Square Capital, from time to time upon request, transaction files maintained by Merchant, and any other information related to past payment processing volumes or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, whether formed for the purpose of audit or otherwise.

6.4 Termination of Agreement. Except as otherwise stated herein, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until the entire Loan Balance has been repaid to Bank or its agent or assignee.

6.5 Effect of Merchant Breach. If you breach any of your obligations in Section II, the covenants in Section IV or any of your representations, warranties or covenants found in this Agreement, Bank or its agent or assignee shall be entitled, upon written notice to you, to (i) demand immediate repayment of the Loan Balance or (ii) increase your Repayment Rate to a rate determined by Bank or its agent or assignee in its sole discretion. You agree to pay the outstanding Loan Balance within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such notice, or such longer period of time as requested by Bank or its agent or assignee.

6.6 Effect of Multiple Square Accounts. Any attempt to receive your payment card processing proceeds through multiple Square Accounts shall entitle Bank to consider any such Square Accounts as part of your Square Account for purposes of this Agreement. Bank (including its agent or assignee) may, at its option, (i) provide you with notice that additional Square Accounts are now considered part of your Square Account under this Agreement and apply the Repayment Rate to such consolidated Square Account or (ii) exercise its other remedies under this Agreement.

The remedies provided hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law or equity.

6.7 Effect of Square Capital Ceasing to Withhold Loan Payments. Under contractual obligations that Square Capital has and may have with various third parties, Square Capital or Square, Inc. on its behalf may be prevented from withholding Loan payments from your gross Receivables as described in Section 2.1.2 while you have an outstanding Loan Balance under this Loan Agreement. Such an event may result in the assignment or transfer of the servicing of this Loan Agreement and Square Capital’s rights and remedies under this Loan Agreement without prior notice to you. In the event of a transfer of servicing, you hereby agree that you will (i) make equal weekly payments via debit to a bank account or other means (which amount equals the remaining Loan Balance divided by the number of weeks through the remaining Term of your Loan) of the remaining Loan Balance over the remainder of the Term to the designated service provider if loan payments are no longer withheld by Square, Inc. and (ii) comply with alternative payment timing, instructions and methods as provided by the designated service provider. In the event that alternative payment timing, instructions and methods are required, you will be provided with reasonable notification of those requirements, including a statement reflecting your outstanding Loan Balance and weekly payment amount, to be delivered within a reasonable time.

6.8 Satisfaction of Existing Obligation. In order to receive funds under this Agreement, you must fully satisfy any Existing Obligation Amount. Funds under this Agreement will not be made available until you have fully satisfied such Existing Obligation Amount. If you have an Existing Obligation Amount on a loan through the Square Capital Program, in order to receive this loan you hereby agree to make full repayment on any such other loan. The Existing Obligation Amount due on your existing loan will be deducted from the Loan Amount for such repayment before any remaining loan proceeds are made available to you.

6.9 Effect of Breach. Bank and its agents and/or assignees each have the right to enforce the repayment of your Loan Balance pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and in the instance of nonpayment of your Loan Balance will enforce those rights solely against Merchant’s business assets, including but not limited to the property and interests described in Section 6.1.2 above. This does not limit your duties and performance obligations under this Agreement, including but not limited to your payment obligation in Section 2.1.2 and the Bank’s enforcement rights.

VII. Miscellaneous

7.1 Modifications; Amendments. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any provision of this Agreement may be modified or supplemented only by an instrument in writing signed by Bank, Square Capital and Merchant.

7.2 Waiver. Bank’s failure to assert, or delay in exercising, any right or provision under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. No waiver of any term of this Agreement shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term.

7.3 Consequences of Merchant’s Withdrawal of Consent to Receipt of Electronic Communications. Merchant agrees that Bank and Square Capital may provide communications relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein electronically as described in Section I of this Agreement and Square, Inc.’s E-Sign Consent policy. Square Capital reserves the right to close Merchant’s Square Account if Merchant withdraws its consent to receive electronic communications, which closure shall be treated in all respects by Bank as a breach by Merchant of a covenant in Section IV of this Agreement, and which shall entitle Bank to exercise the remedies set forth in Section VI of this Agreement (and which, in turn, shall obligate Merchant to pay the outstanding Loan Balance in full).

7.4 Notices. Except as otherwise stated, notices to Bank or Square Capital must be sent by postal mail to: Square Capital Program, 1455 Market Street, Suite 600, San Francisco, California 94103.

7.5 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Merchant, Bank, Square Capital and their respective successors and assigns, except that Merchant shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of Bank, which consent may be withheld in Bank’s sole discretion. Bank (including its agents, assignees and service providers) reserves the right to sell, transfer or assign this Agreement and any obligation hereunder with or without prior notice to Merchant. Square Capital may, at Bank’s direction, sell, transfer or assign its obligations as the service provider with or without prior notice to Merchant.

7.6 Costs to Enforce Payable by Merchant. Bank and Square Capital shall be entitled to receive from Merchant, and Merchant shall pay, all reasonable costs associated with a breach by Merchant of any of its obligations, covenants (including but not limited to the Merchant Covenants) or any of the representations and warranties of Merchant under this Agreement and the enforcement thereof, including but not limited to returned check fees, court costs and attorneys’ fees. For this purpose, “reasonable costs” shall include the costs, including attorneys’ fees, associated with defending, protecting, or enforcing Bank’s rights under this Agreement including in any bankruptcy proceeding. If Merchant files an action or commences arbitration against either Bank or Square Capital and the matter is dismissed, or Bank or Square Capital prevails in the matter, Merchant agrees to pay all of the other Party’s (or Parties’ if both Bank and Square Capital are involved) attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in the matter, whether in court or arbitration.

7.7 Indemnification. In addition to all rights and remedies available to the Parties hereto at law or in equity, Merchant shall indemnify Bank (and its respective employees, directors, agents, affiliates and representatives) and Square Capital (and its respective employees, directors, agents, affiliates and representatives) (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”), and hold harmless from and against and pay on behalf of or reimburse each such Indemnified Person, as and when incurred, for any and all loss, liability, demand, claim, action, cause of action, cost, damage, deficiency, tax, penalty, fine or expense, whether or not arising out of any claims by or on behalf of such Indemnified Persons or any third party, including interest, penalties, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and all amounts paid in investigation, defense or settlement of any of the foregoing (including all reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of this Section), that any such Indemnified Persons may suffer, sustain, incur or become subject to, as a result of, in connection with, relating or incidental to or by virtue of: (i) any misrepresentation or breach of warranty of Merchant under this Agreement; or (ii) any non fulfillment, default or breach of any covenant or agreement of Merchant in this Agreement.

7.8 Enforceability of Representations. All representations, warranties and covenants herein will be enforceable upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement and will continue in full force and effect until this Agreement has been terminated.

7.9 Severability. Should any provision of this Agreement be determined to be invalid or unenforceable under any law, rule, or regulation, including any Network Rule, such determination will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, prohibited or unenforceable for any reason in any jurisdiction, such provision, as to such jurisdiction, shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be ineffective without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

7.10 Complete Agreement. This Agreement, and any addendum and forms provided herewith, along with any other Square Capital or Square, Inc. agreements referenced herein, contains the complete agreement and understanding between Merchant, Bank, Square Capital, and Square, Inc. and supersedes all prior contracts and understandings relating to the matter of this Agreement unless otherwise specifically reaffirmed or restated herein.

7.11 Governing Law. This Agreement and any dispute arising hereunder will be governed by Utah law and/or applicable federal law (including the Federal Arbitration Act) as applied to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within Utah, without regard to its choice of law or conflicts of law principles that would require application of law of a different jurisdiction.

7.12 Survival. This Section and Sections 7.5 (Binding Effect), 7.6 (Costs to Enforce Payable by Merchant), 7.7 (Indemnification), 7.9 (Severability), 7.10 (Complete Agreement), 7.11 (Governing Law), 7.13 (Limitation on Time to Initiate a Dispute) and 7.15 (Binding Individual Arbitration) shall survive after you repay your Loan Balance in full, including after the termination of this Agreement.

7.14 Merchant’s Disputes. If Merchant has any dispute of any kind under this Agreement, Merchant agrees to promptly notify Square Capital in writing of the dispute and all related facts.

7.15 Binding Individual Arbitration. You, Bank and Square Capital agree to arbitrate all disputes arising under or in connection with this Agreement. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court and seeks to resolve disputes more quickly. Instead of a judge or a jury, the case will be decided by a neutral arbitrator who has the power to award the same damages and relief that a court can. ANY ARBITRATION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL ONLY BE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ARBITRATIONS, CLASS ACTIONS, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTIONS, AND CONSOLIDATION WITH OTHER ARBITRATIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED, AND YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHTS TO HAVE YOUR CASE DECIDED BY A JURY AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AGAINST BANK OR SQUARE CAPITAL. If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision shall be severed, and the remaining arbitration terms shall be enforced (but in no case shall there be a class arbitration). All disputes shall be resolved finally and exclusively by binding individual arbitration with a single arbitrator administered by the American Arbitration Association (www.adr.org) according to this provision and the applicable arbitration rules. The Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16, fully applies. Any arbitration hearing will occur in San Francisco, California. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. For any dispute against Bank, Bank will pay all the arbitration fees, which fees will be added to any award in favor of Bank. For any dispute against Square Capital, Square Capital will pay all the arbitration fees. For purposes of this arbitration provision, references to you, Bank and Square Capital also include respective subsidiaries, affiliates, agents (including Square Capital as an agent and service provider to Bank), employees, predecessors, successors and assigns as well as authorized users or beneficiaries of the Square Capital Program and Square, Inc. processing services. Subject to and without waiver of the arbitration provisions above, you agree that any judicial proceedings will be brought in and you hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the state courts in the City and County of San Francisco, California, or federal court for the Northern District of California.
