4.2. Payments for Purchase Orders.

(a) Buyer will pay the Buyer Fees set forth in the Buyer's Account for the Gift Cards and Open Loop Cards. The Buyer Fees and shipping fees are non-refundable unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties. Buyer must forward funds in advance to SVS by way of electronic funds transfer, wire transfer, establishing and maintaining a deposit account with SVS, or, if approved by SVS, credit card ("Advance Funds") to be applied toward the purchase of the Gift Cards and/or Open Loop Cards in the Purchase Order. If Buyer is approved to pay with a credit card and elects to purchase the Gift Cards or Open Loop Cards with a credit card, Buyer will also be assessed a processing fee of 3.95%, which fee is subject to change by SVS from time to time by updating the Buyer's Account.

(b) A Purchase Order is not considered accepted by SVS until SVS has provided its acceptance in writing to Buyer or fulfilled the Purchase Order. SVS will not accept a Purchase Order from Buyer if Buyer has not forwarded sufficient Advance Funds to cover the Buyer Fees.

(c) Unless otherwise stated in this Agreement, the fees charged and all other amounts due to SVS under this Agreement are net amounts, exclusive of all sales and other taxes, and Buyer will be responsible for and shall pay directly, any and all such taxes that they are legally obligated to pay. As between SVS and Buyer, SVS is not responsible for applicable taxes and reporting of taxes related to the purchase of Gift Card or Open Loop Cards, including, but not limited to, sales, duty, income (other than SVS' income), commission, payroll, gift, and excise taxes, whether or not invoiced.

4.3. Fulfilment of Purchase Orders. Generally, within 48 to 72 hours after acceptance of a Purchase Order by SVS, SVS will electronically send the Gift Cards or Open Loop Cards to Buyer or, for physical cards, initiate the physical fulfillment process, in accordance with such Purchase Order. For greater certainty, SVS shall process each Purchase Order only after the applicable Buyer Fees have been confirmed by SVS.

4.4. Risk of Loss. Upon SVS' transmission of the Gift Cards and/or Open Loop Cards the title to, and risk of loss of, such cards passes to Buyer. SVS will have no liability to Buyer or to any third party for any loss, theft, or misuse of any Gift Cards and/or Open Loop Cards that SVS has transmitted to Buyer (or its designated recipient(s)).

4.5. Monthly Transaction Reports. SVS shall provide monthly transaction reports to Buyer summarizing transaction activity in each calendar month of the term within 14 days of the last day of such calendar month, which will include the following information:

(a) opening balance of any undrawn funds received from Buyer and held by SVS;

5. BUYER OBLIGATIONS.

5.1. Buyer Requirements.

(a) In addition to the obligations set out in this Agreement with respect to the Marks, Buyer agrees to comply with all Merchant‑specific and Open Loop Provider-specific policies and requirements communicated by SVS to Buyer from time to time.

(b) Buyer will: 1. only use the Gift Cards and Open Loop Cards for further distribution in accordance with the Loyalty Program(s) set forth by Buyer on the registration form to open the Buyer's Account and not redeem them itself; 2. comply with the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA), 3. comply with all SVS', Merchants', and Open Loop Provider's instructions on the use of the applicable Marks and the distribution of the Gift Cards or Open Loop Cards, as applicable, and 4. comply with the Merchants' Gift Card terms and conditions or Open Loop Provider terms and conditions, as applicable, provided to Buyer by SVS.

(c) Buyer shall, at all times, accurately describe the terms and conditions of the Gift Cards and/or Open Loop Cards, as applicable, and Buyer shall be solely liable for all costs, expenses and outcomes of descriptions of the Gift Cards and/or Open Loop Cards other than as approved by SVS as defined herein. Buyer shall not market, advertise or promote the availability of Gift Cards or Open Loop Cards or the Loyalty Programs under which they are distributed in any way that (i) is misleading or potentially misleading, or (ii) fails to clearly identify the Loyalty Program eligibility criteria or material terms and conditions of the Gift Cards or Open Loop Cards. Buyer shall not promote or market any Gift Card or Open Loop Card as a "gift," "cash," "cash back" or a similar cash equivalent.

(d) If requested by Buyer, SVS may agree, in its sole discretion, to allow digital tokens to be provided to Buyer for subsequent distribution, in which case the following terms apply. For certain of the SVS or the Open Loop Providers digital products, digital tokens are initiated through the use of hyperlinks containing unique identifiers ("Links"). Recipients receive the Link (via electronic secure transfer or such other mechanism as determined by SVS or the Open Loop Providers), and, after clicking the Link, access a website where the recipients may redeem the payment. SVS or the Open Loop Providers may provide Links to Buyer for distribution by Buyer. Buyer agrees that: (a) Buyer will maintain the security and confidentiality of such Links during storage, handling, or transmission, and (b) SVS may require Buyer to submit plans for the maintenance of such security, which plans will be subject to SVS' written approval. Buyer agrees to immediately notify SVS in writing of any loss of security or control regarding Links. Buyer may not use a third party in connection with the storage, handling, or transmission of the Links.

(e) Buyer is responsible for any losses resulting from and costs associated with managing fraudulent use of the Open Loop Cards that are attributable to the actions or inactions of Buyer, Buyer's third parties (e.g. Buyer's clients or service providers), anyone acting on Buyer's behalf, and the recipient of a payment issued by the Open Loop Provider on behalf of a Buyer's program, and Buyer will reimburse SVS to the extent SVS incurs such losses. Should Buyer, or any of Buyer's third parties, fail to maintain the security of Links or other Open Loop Card-related information and fraudulent use of Open Loop Cards is reasonably attributable to such failure, then such fraud will be attributed to the actions of or inactions of Buyer. Subject to applicable law, Buyer agrees to comply with all reasonable requests made by SVS or the Open Loop Providers to investigate, prevent, and recover sums due relating to any actual or suspected loss, fraud, or other improper use of any Open Loop Card ordered by Buyer. SVS or the Open Loop Providers may suspend or cancel any Open Loop Cards (or limit features offered on Open Loop Cards prospectively), including but not limited to reloadable and/or ATM access, if it believes such Open Loop Cards are being used fraudulently or for illegal or improper purposes.

5.2. Restrictions.

(a) For purposes of this section, "Confidential Information" shall mean any information identified by SVS as "confidential" or "proprietary" or which, under the circumstances, ought to be treated as confidential or proprietary, including but not limited to non-public information related to the business, strategies, plans, practices, policies and procedures, employees, customers, software, technical information, documentation, financial information, and prices of SVS and its affiliated and related companies. Buyer agrees and covenants that it shall not, during the performance of this Agreement or at any time after the termination or expiration of this Agreement, use or disclose to any third party, other than during the proper performance of its duties hereunder, SVS' Confidential Information. Buyer shall use the same degree of care as it uses to protect its own confidential information of a like nature, but no less than a reasonable degree of care, to maintain in confidence SVS' Confidential Information. The foregoing obligations shall not apply to any information that (a) is at the time of disclosure, or thereafter becomes, part of the public domain through a source other than Buyer, (b) is subsequently learned from a third party that does not impose an obligation of confidentiality on Buyer, (c) was known to Buyer at the time of disclosure as documented in business records maintained in the ordinary course of business, (d) was generated independently by Buyer as documented in business records maintained in the ordinary course of business, or (e) is required to be disclosed by law, subpoena or other process. The parties each acknowledge that a breach of confidentiality may cause irreparable harm to the non-breaching party for whom damages may not be an adequate remedy and that, therefore, the non-breaching party will be entitled to seek injunctive relief or other equitable remedies in the event thereof.

(b) Buyer agrees that it shall not, directly or indirectly, copy, modify, create a derivative work of, reverse assemble, disassemble, or decompile the SVS Technology, any other online tool made available to Buyer, or any part thereof or otherwise attempt to discover any source code in connection with the SVS Technology or other online tool, modify the SVS Technology or any other online tool, or use unauthorized or modified versions thereof, including for the purpose of building a similar or competitive product or service or for the purpose of obtaining unauthorized access to SVS's Confidential Information. Buyer shall limit use of the SVS Technology or any other online tool(s) to the purposes described in this Agreement.

5.3. Access IDs. In connection with the SVS Solutions B2B program, SVS may provide Buyer with access to the SVS Technology and certain other systems and services. Buyer is solely responsible for (i) ensuring that only authorized individuals have access to the SVS Technology, other SVS systems, and the services under this Agreement, (ii) immediately removing any individual that is no longer authorized, and (iii) any and all acts and omissions that occur under Buyer's account or password(s).

5.4. Buyer's Systems. Buyer shall be solely responsible for any fraud occurring or originating on Buyer's technology network or systems.

6. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

6.1. Marks and Third-Party IP.

(a) The Marks provided to Buyer for use in connection with this Agreement are the property of SVS and other parties. Buyer shall not use any such Marks without the written permission of SVS or such third party that may own the Marks. Subject to the foregoing, SVS grants Buyer, during the Term, subject to the terms and conditions established by the relevant Merchants and/or Open Loop Providers, non‑exclusive, non‑transferable, revocable sublicences to use the Marks, as applicable, solely for the purposes of marketing, promoting, and distributing Gift Cards or Open Loop Cards, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement. Each such sublicence is effective only (i) for the permitted use of the specific Mark for which it is granted; and (ii) from the time that SVS provides Buyer with written confirmation of such permitted use of such Mark. Any restrictions or conditions for the use of the Mark set out by SVS in such written confirmation, or in any subsequent written notice from SVS to Buyer, shall apply to all subsequent use of the Mark by Buyer. Buyer agrees to only use the Marks in the manner provided in this Agreement and to not alter the Marks in any way. SVS' branding review is to ensure appropriate usage of Marks and should not be interpreted in any way as an approval of the elements of a Loyalty Program, or that the Loyalty Program complies with applicable law.

(b) Except as expressly set out in this Agreement, Buyer does not have any right, title, or interest in, or to use in any manner whatsoever, the Marks or any other Merchant or Open Loop Provider names, logos, service marks, trademarks, trade names, business names, taglines, or other proprietary designations (collectively, the "Third-Party IP").

(c) In addition to Buyer's other obligations of indemnification, Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless SVS from and against any and all claims, actions, demands, losses, damages, judgments, settlements, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses), and liability of any kind, if and to the extent arising out of, as a result of, or in connection with any allegation that Buyer has (i) used Third-Party IP without permission of the Merchant or Open Loop Provider, as applicable, or has breached any of the terms of this Section 6.1; or (ii) otherwise committed any act or omission which violates or infringes the Merchant's or Open Loop Provider's intellectual property rights associated with any Third-Party IP.

6.2. SVS may include Buyer on SVS' customer list.

6.3. SVS does not, and shall not be deemed to, grant to Buyer any right, title or interest in or to proprietary technology, methods and methodologies, software code, documentation, tools, software and interfaces, trade secrets, works of authorship or other proprietary materials that are protected by intellectual property rights held by SVS or its licensors and used by Buyer in connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, any and all intellectual property rights and other proprietary rights embodied therein or otherwise applicable thereto. SVS has not granted any intellectual property ownership interest in its logos, service marks, trademarks, trade names, business names, taglines, or other intellectual property.

6.4. Buyer shall comply with SVS' branding guidelines, and shall not distribute, either internally or to the public, any materials that refer directly or indirectly to SVS, any Merchant, or any Open Loop Provider without SVS' consent.

7.6. Buyer represents, warrants, covenants, and agrees that it has and will maintain all necessary federal, state, and local licenses, permits, approvals, registrations, or other authorizations from all applicable state and federal regulatory and governmental authorities necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
