White Label Reseller Agreement
1. Appointment
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Enable hereby appoints Reseller as a reseller of the Enable Platform. Reseller shall interact with entities and individuals in order to obtain information from them as to whether they are interested in using the Enable Platform. Reseller will obtain all information and documentation reasonably required by Enable. Reseller acknowledges that all Merchants are to be approved by Enable in its sole discretion and Merchants will be able to utilize the Enable Platform effective only upon such approval.
(b) The parties agree that at all times, Enable owns all right, title and interest to the Enable Platform, all alterations, modifications, improvements, derivatives and the documentation provided to or by Reseller in connection with this Agreement. Reseller shall not remove or alter any copyright notices or proprietary legends affixed by Enable to the Enable Platform. Enable shall also have sole and exclusive ownership of all right, title, and interest in and to its proprietary information and materials, including any derivative works thereof, including ownership of all copyrights, trademarks, service marks, patents, and trade secrets pertaining thereto (collectively, the “Proprietary Information”). The Enable Platform is expressly included within the meaning of the Proprietary Information. Reseller may use the Enable Platform and Proprietary Information, subject only to the rights and privileges expressly granted by Enable for purposes of this Agreement.
(c) Enable may provide the Enable Platform directly or through third party vendors. In doing so, Enable shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Enable Platform and maintain them in an uninterrupted and error-free fashion consistent with its practices in effect as of the date of this Agreement. However, the parties acknowledge that the Enable Platform is a computer network based service which may be subject to outages, data loss and delay occurrences. In such an event, Enable shall use commercially reasonable efforts to diligently and promptly remedy any and all material interruptions. Nonetheless, Enable will not be liable in any manner for any data losses, interruptions, outages, or other delay occurrences relating to the Enable Platform by Enable or its vendors.
(d) Limitations on Rights Granted. Except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement, Reseller shall not, and shall not knowingly cause or permit any non-party, to use or reproduce the Enable Platform. Reseller shall not, and shall not knowingly cause or permit any non-party, to disassemble, decompile, decrypt, extract, reverse engineer, prepare a derivative work based upon, distribute, or time share the Enable Platform, or otherwise apply any procedure or process to the Enable Platform in order to ascertain, derive, and/or appropriate for any reason or purpose, the source code or source listings for the Enable Platform or any algorithm, process, procedure or other information contained in Enable Platform. Except as expressly authorized herein, Reseller may not rent, lease, assign, sublicense, transfer, modify, alter, or time share the Enable Platform.
(e) Fees in General. Reseller shall pay fees for the Enable Platform and be entitled to compensation as set forth on the attached Exhibit A. The plan set forth in Exhibit A shall be held in strict confidence by Reseller. Enable shall have the right to change the plan as set forth in Exhibit A at any time in its sole discretion by providing thirty (30) days notice to Reseller. Reseller agrees to pay Enable for the Enable Platform on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis as determined by Enable via deduction of all applicable fees directly from Reseller’s bank account. Reseller shall provide Enable with all necessary bank account, routing and related information. Enable will deduct automatically all such fees and charges within a time frame left to the full and singular discretion of Enable, regardless of the status of the Reseller’ bank account. Reseller shall have sixty (60) days from the receipt of any invoiced fees to notify Enable of any errors in fees invoiced and debited. If Reseller does not notify Enable within the sixty (60) day time period, Reseller shall be deemed to have accepted without question such payment and may not in the future contest the amount it was debited or seek reimbursement for any discrepancies. Upon receipt of notice, Enable shall have thirty (30) days to correct any errors.
(f) If agreed to by the parties, Enable will host the Enable Platform using a mutually acceptable domain name. Enable will modify the applicable HTML pages (and login page) within its hosted infrastructure such that, when logging in, Reseller’s private label merchants will see only the Reseller brand displayed in the hosted environment. Reseller will be responsible for integration of the Enable Platform into the end User(s) operating systems for all Merchant(s) that are approved by Enable for the Enable Platform. Reseller shall as determined by Enable enter into the agreement for the Enable Platform for the Merchants acceptable to Enable in its reasonable discretion or enter into an agreement provided by Enable each of which will include third party beneficiary language as set forth in Schedule 1.
(g) Reseller shall comply at all times with, and require Merchants and/or any third party through whom Reseller may offer the Enable Platform (“Other Resellers”) to comply with all applicable and then-current legal obligations and security measures including without limitation those issued by the United States Government, Federal, State and Municipal laws and ordinances, Card Association, the Federal Trade Commission, the PCI Security Standards Council, and any other governing body. Reseller shall comply with, and require Merchants and/or Other Resellers to comply with, all Enable security protocols, notices and safeguards in effect during the term of this Agreement.
2. Independent Contractors
The relationship of Enable and Reseller is that of independent contractors. Neither party nor its employees, consultants, contractors or agents are agents, employees, partners or joint ventures of the other party, nor do they have any authority to bind the other party by contract or otherwise to any obligation.
3. Term and Termination
(a) The initial term of this Agreement shall be for a period of two (2) years, commencing on the date first set forth on the application. This Agreement shall thereafter be automatically renewed for additional terms of one (1) year each unless either party notifies the other no later than ninety (90) days prior to the end of the current term that it does not wish to renew this Agreement. Either party may terminate this Agreement if the other party commits a material breach of this Agreement that is not cured within fifteen (15) days of written notice. Enable may terminate this Agreement for any reason, or no reason at all, by providing Reseller with seven (7) days written notice.
(b) Effect of Termination. (i) Upon termination of this Agreement: (a) Reseller’s license to resell the Enable Platform shall be automatically and immediately revoked, and (b) either at the discretion of Enable (A) Reseller shall be allowed to take the relevant data for its Merchants and their customers subject to the provisions below or (B) Reseller shall take over the duties of providing the Enable Platform to Merchants.
(ii) Upon any termination of this Agreement, Enable agrees, upon written request from Reseller, to provide the Reseller with any available data relating to Reseller’s Merchant and their customers subject to the following conditions: (A) Reseller must not be in breach of the terms of this Agreement (B) Reseller has paid any applicable early termination fee and all other amounts due under this Agreement and (C) the transfer of such information is allowed under the applicable state laws, federal laws and any other applicable laws, rules or regulations.
(iii) If Reseller violates any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, then Enable may charge a termination fee in an amount equal to the greater of (i) the monthly fees and other fees due under this Agreement multiplied by the number of months remaining until the end of the current term of the Agreement and (ii) the average monthly fees charged to the Reseller for the previous 2 months (or such shorter time if the Reseller has processed for less than 2 months including as evidenced by prior processing volume) for its Reseller account multiplied by the number of months remaining until the end of the current term of the Agreement. The parties expressly agree that the damages, which Enable and Reseller might reasonably anticipate to be sustained by Enable and Reseller, are difficult to ascertain and measure because of their indefiniteness or uncertainty and that the amount set forth above is a reasonable estimate of the damages that would probably be caused and shall be due regardless of proof of actual damages. Reseller hereby authorizes Enable to debit any charges due by Reseller under this Agreement from any checking, savings, credit card or any other type of account provided by Reseller to Enable.
4. Indemnification
Reseller agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Enable, its employees, resellers, third party vendors, partners and agents from and against any loss, liability, damage, penalty or expense (including attorneys’ fees, expert witness fees and cost of defense) they may suffer or incur as a result of (i) any failure by Reseller, Merchant or any employee, agent or affiliate of Reseller to comply with the terms of this Agreement; (ii) any warranty or representation made by Reseller being false or misleading; (iii) any representation or warranty made by Reseller or any employee or agent of Reseller to any third person other than as specifically authorized by this Agreement, (iv) any claims related to the Enable Platform, (v) negligence of Reseller, Merchants or its subcontractors, agents or employees, or (vii) any alleged or actual violations by Reseller, Merchants or its subcontractors, employees or agents of any card association rules, governmental laws, regulations or card association rules.

Each party hereby agrees that such courts shall have exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue with respect to such party, and each party hereby submits to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts.
13.
The failure of either party to this Agreement to object to or to take affirmative action with respect to any conduct of the other which is in violation of the terms of this Agreement, shall not be construed as a waiver of that conduct or any future breach or subsequent wrongful conduct. If any part, term or provision of this Agreement is declared and determined by any court or arbitrator to be illegal or invalid, such declaration and determination shall not effect the validity of the remaining parts, terms or provisions. The various headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect this Agreement or any portion thereof. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counter-parts or by fax, each of which shall be deemed an original, all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
