         (a)      At any time Bank may monitor the position of the various
Accounts to assure itself that there are sufficient funds available, either in
the form of uninvested cash or Investments in the Accounts that may be readily
liquidated, to cover any Overdraft Advances and satisfy all other Business
Liabilities.

         (b)      If SPV has failed to deposit a sufficient amount of collected
and available funds, so that the balance of collateral and available funds in
the DDA is positive by 12:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the Business Day immediately
following any Business Day on which an Overdraft Advance is outstanding at
Bank's close of business (each an "Overnight Overdraft"), in addition to any
other rights Bank may have, Bank may, without any prior notice to SPV or
Servicer, (i) take possession and control of any or all of the Accounts or any
other Investments, (ii) instruct any Securities Intermediary with which an
Account is maintained or any Investment Advisor trading in any Account to
transfer financial assets to Bank in satisfaction of or as collateral with
respect to any Overdraft Advances and any Unsettled ACH Credits, Unsettled RPPS
Credits, Unsettled E-Pay Credits or other debit against or transfer from the
DDA, (iii) instruct any Securities Intermediary with which an Account is
maintained or any Investment Advisor trading in any Account to sell or liquidate
such financial assets in such manner as Bank deems appropriate and transfer
funds to the DDA to satisfy any deficit in the DDA and in the amount of any
Unsettled ACH Credits, Unsettled RPPS Credits, Unsettled E-Pay Credits or any
other debit against or transfer from the DDA, or (iv) otherwise take such
actions with respect to the Accounts or any cash or financial assets therein or
any other Investments as it deems necessary and appropriate to cover any deficit
in the DDA and any Unsettled ACH Credits, Unsettled RPPS Credits, Unsettled
E-Pay Credits or any other debit against or transfer from the DDA. Bank agrees
that if it decides to sell or liquidate financial assets it will sell those
financial assets with shorter terms and settlement periods first and those
financial assets with the longest terms and settlement periods last.

         (c)      If by 4:30 p.m. (Eastern time) on any Business Day the balance
of collected and available funds posted to the DDA is not equal to the Minimum
Required Balance, or if any transfer from the DDA would reduce the balance of
collected and available funds posted to the DDA below the Minimum Required
Balance, the Bank may refuse to honor any transfer from the DDA during the
remainder of such Business Day, other than a transfer to effect Overnight
Repurchases.

         SECTION 3.4 INTEREST. Interest shall accrue on the amount of each
Overdraft Advance from the time such Overdraft Advance is made until repaid at a
rate equal to the product of (i) the Base Percentage Rate in effect from time to
time multiplied by (ii) the amount of the Overdraft Advance, multiplied by (iii)
the quotient of the (a) the number of days an Overdraft Advance is outstanding
(including any day an Overdraft Advance is outstanding on such day), divided by
(b) 360, multiplied by (iv) the quotient of (a) the number of hours the
Overdraft Advance is outstanding on any day, divided by (b) 24. The SPV shall
pay all accrued and unpaid interest monthly on the first Business Day of each
calendar month immediately succeeding the month in which such interest accrues.
All accrued interest must be paid in actual U.S. dollars and SPV may not use
compensating balances in the DDA to offset such amounts.

         SECTION 3.5 POWER OF ATTORNEY. SPV hereby grants unto Bank, its
officers, employees and agents, the right and power, in the name and stead of
SPV, to take the actions described in Section 3.3 above and any other actions
Bank is permitted to take under this Agreement or the other Transaction
Documents, to the full extent as if SPV itself were taking such actions. With
respect to any Securities Account in which Investments are maintained, the
rights granted herein shall constitute rights to give entitlement orders or
other instructions to a Securities Intermediary as an entitlement holder under
Section 8-506 of the UCC and are intended to constitute control under Section
8-106 of the UCC.

         SECTION 3.6 SATISFACTION OF OBLIGATIONS. Nothing contained in this
Agreement shall allow Bank to use the assets of the Accounts to satisfy any
obligation of SPV or Servicer to Bank other than the Obligations owed under this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

         SECTION 3.7 MAXIMUM ADVANCE Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein or in any other document, Bank shall have no obligation to
advance any funds to SPV in an amount greater than the lesser of (i) [*] or (ii)
the sum of the aggregate Immediate Fair Market Value of cash and Investments in
the Accounts (the "Overdraft Commitment"). If Bank, in its sole discretion,
funds any Overdraft Advance which exceeds the Overdraft Commitment, such
Overdraft Advance shall be part of the Obligations under this Agreement and
shall be secured by any collateral now or hereafter pledged to secure the
Obligations. The funding of any Overdraft Advance at any time in excess of the
Overdraft Commitment shall be in Bank's sole discretion, and shall not
constitute or be construed as an agreement by Bank to fund any Overdraft Advance
in excess of the Overdraft Commitment at any time in the future.

                            ARTICLE IV. ACH FACILITY

         SECTION 4.1 ACH TRANSACTIONS. Subject to the terms and conditions of
this Agreement and the ACH Monitoring Agreement, Bank shall facilitate the use
by SPV of ACH Transactions as contemplated herein.

         SECTION 4.2 SERVICES, FEES AND CHARGES.

Bank (the "Transit Numbers") listed on Exhibit B attached hereto, to clear and
settle ACH credit and debit entries to Subscriber and Merchant Deposit Accounts
originated and transmitted directly to the Federal Reserve Bank. The Transit
Numbers will be used by SPV only to originate ACH Transmissions to Subscriber
and Merchant Deposit Accounts in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Subject to the terms of this Agreement and the ACH Monitoring Agreement, the
Bank shall notify the Federal Reserve Bank to accept the ACH Transmissions
submitted directly by SPV using the Transit Numbers.

         (b)      SPV shall pay to Bank for the ACH Services such fees ("ACH
Fees") as are specified in Exhibit A, attached hereto. SPV shall also pay to
Bank any other fees, charges, expenses or penalties assessed by the Federal
Reserve Bank from time to time for or in connection with the ACH Services and
any ACH Transmission. Bank may increase the ACH Fees from time to time effective
upon 180 days' prior written notice, or in the event of any increase in the
fees, charges, expenses or penalties imposed or assessed by the Federal Reserve
Bank, upon the effective date of such increase by the Federal Reserve Bank;
provided, however, Bank may not increase the ACH Fees during the Initial Term of
this Agreement, except as a result of any increase in the fees, charges,
expenses or penalties charged by the Federal Reserve Bank, during the Initial
Term of this Agreement. If the Bank increases the ACH Fees, other than as a
result of an increase in the fees, charges, expenses or penalties imposed or
assessed by the Federal Reserve Bank for or in connection with ACH Services,
Servicer and SPV may terminate the ACH Service without penalty upon 90 days'
prior written notice. SPV shall be liable for all charges or penalties assessed
by NACHA for any violation of the NACHA Rules arising from SPV's acts or
omissions or misconduct, including any breach of any representation in Section
8.19.

         SECTION 4.3 ACH TRANSMISSION. [*]

         SECTION 4.4 FILE LIMITS. SPV and Servicer acknowledge and agree that
neither SPV nor Servicer, on behalf of SPV, shall originate any ACH Transmission
which would cause (a) the aggregate total dollar amount of all ACH Transmissions
of ACH credit entries originated on any Business Day to exceed the lesser of (i)
as calculated by Bank, the product of (A) the average of the largest dollar
amount of ACH credit entries originated on any Business

Day in a month for each of the prior three months then ended (including ACH
credit entries originated using the KeyBank routing and transit numbers to
disburse Subscriber Funds to Merchants for purposes of calculating such average
for the first five months ending after the Agreement Date), multiplied by (B)
1.3, effective thirty days after Bank receives from SPV such information for
each of the prior three months, it being understood that this calculation shall
be on a rolling three month basis, or (ii) as calculated by Bank, the sum of (A)
the Immediate Fair Market Value of all cash and Investments in the Accounts at
the time of such ACH Transmission, plus (B) the aggregate total dollar amount of
all Unsettled ACH Debits (other than Uncollected ACH Debits) at the time of such
ACH Transmission as reported by the Federal Reserve Bank, less (C) the aggregate
total dollar amount of all Overdraft Advances outstanding at the time of such
ACH Transmission, less (D) the aggregate total dollar amount of all RPPS and
E-Pay Transmissions which have been originated on such Business Day at the time
of such ACH Transmission, less (E) the amount of all Issued but Not Cleared
Checks (the "Credit Cap"), or (b) the aggregate total dollar amount of all ACH
Transmissions of ACH debit entries originated on any Business Day to exceed, as
calculated by Bank, the product of (i) the average of the largest dollar amount
of ACH debit entries originated on any Business Day in a month for each of the
prior three months then ended (including ACH debit entries originated using the
KeyBank routing and transit numbers to collect Subscriber Funds for purposes of
calculating such average for the first five months ending after the Agreement
Date), multiplied by (ii) 1.3, effective thirty days after Bank receives from
SPV such information for each of the prior three months, it being understood
that this calculation shall be on a rolling three month basis (the "Debit Cap").
For purposes of calculating compliance with the Credit Cap and the Debit Cap,
any ACH Transmission originated after the close of any Fed ACH Business Day on a
Friday but before the start of the Fed ACH Business Day on the following Monday
shall be included in the aggregate amount of credit entries and debit entries
originated on the prior Fed ACH Business Day. Bank shall have no obligation to
fund the payment of any ACH Transmission that causes the aggregate total dollar
amount of ACH credit entries originated on any Banking Day to exceed the Credit
Cap or the aggregate total dollar amount of ACH debit entries originated on any
Banking Day to exceed the Debit Cap, and Bank may order the Federal Reserve Bank
to reject any such ACH Transmission and shall have no liability for failing to
do so.

         (c)      [*]

         (d)      SPV and Servicer acknowledge that once SPV or Servicer has
transmitted an ACH Transmission to the Federal Reserve Bank, that (i) neither
SPV nor Servicer shall have any right or ability to, but may request that Bank
request for the Federal Reserve Bank to, cancel or amend such ACH Transmission,
(ii) the Bank shall have no ability to cancel or amend such ACH Transmission,
and (iii) neither Bank nor the Federal Reserve Bank shall have any obligation to
cancel or amend or take any actions to cancel or amend such ACH Transmission.

         SECTION 4.7 COMPLIANCE. Bank, Servicer and SPV understand, acknowledge,
and agree that this Agreement is subject to the ongoing approval of the Office
of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Reserve Bank, the Federal
Reserve Board, the Georgia Department of Banking and Finance or any other
applicable government agency, including but not limited to the ability of Bank
to retain multiple routing and transit numbers and to permit the SPV or Servicer
to use the Bank's routing and transit number to originate ACH Transmissions
directly with the Federal Reserve Bank. Should the Federal Reserve Bank or any
other regulatory agency or state or federal court direct Bank to cease and
desist such operations, refuse to continue to permit Bank to provide the ACH
Services to SPV or Servicer, or change the method of operations involving the
ACH Services, or should Bank's provision of the ACH Services or any part thereof
be or become in violation of any court order, law, regulation, circular, or
official interpretation or letter of a regulatory agency, then Bank will not be
required to continue providing the affected ACH Services but will promptly
notify SPV and Servicer that the services contemplated herein will be
terminated. However, Bank will use good faith efforts to attempt to assist SPV
and Servicer in determining if any alternative processing scenarios are
available, and Bank reserves the right to negotiate the price and other terms
with respect to any such alternative servicing arrangements that Bank may elect
to provide. SPV and Servicer agree that they will fully comply with all
applicable state and federal laws, regulations, and Federal Reserve Bank
operating circulars, including but not limited to Federal Reserve Board
Regulation E, Operating Circular No. 4 or other successor operating circular,
and with the NACHA Rules, as such laws, regulations, operating letters, and
NACHA Rules are amended from time to time, and SPV and Servicer acknowledge that
such amendments may necessitate a change in Bank's pricing. Insofar as Bank's
cooperation is necessary to enable SPV and Servicer to comply with the
foregoing, Bank will reasonably cooperate with SPV and Servicer. In addition,
Bank, SPV and Servicer agree that if the Federal Reserve Bank or NACHA Rules
require any change in operations involving the processing of ACH Transmissions,
SPV and Servicer will cooperate to comply with same.

         SECTION 4.8 OTHER ACH TERMS. Bank, Servicer or SPV may terminate its
obligation to engage in all future ACH Transactions upon written notice to the
other parties in the event any party is required to discontinue its
participation in the Services based upon (i) a

                                       24

<PAGE>

change in the rules, regulations, circulars or letters of any regulatory body,
including the Federal Reserve Board, Federal Reserve Bank or other Reserve Bank,
the NACHA Rules, or any laws governing or applicable to the Services that makes
any party unable to continue to make ACH Transmissions or render any Services
hereunder, or (ii) an order of a state or federal court or regulatory body
having jurisdiction to require Bank, Servicer or SPV to terminate ACH
Transmissions or any Services hereunder. Bank may declare a Level Two Event of
Default if (i) the Federal Reserve Bank terminates the ACH Monitoring Agreement
or (ii) a material default by the Federal Reserve Bank under the ACH Monitoring
Agreement has occurred, and if Bank is unable to arrange, to its satisfaction,
services for monitoring, tracking and reporting and suspending or rejecting ACH
Transmissions within thirty days of the declaration of a Level Two Event of
Default, Bank may terminate the ACH Services upon 150 days' prior written notice
to SPV.

         SECTION 4.9 AUTHORIZED TRANSACTIONS; SECURITY PROCEDURES. SPV and
Servicer acknowledge and agree that all ACH Transmissions originated using the
Transit Numbers will be transmitted directly from SPV or Servicer to the Federal
Reserve Bank, and Bank will not have any ability to, or responsibility for,
verifying the authenticity or accuracy of any ACH Transmission. SPV and Servicer
shall be solely responsible for limiting access to, and maintaining the security
and confidentiality of, the system used to originate ACH Transmissions. Except
for ACH entries originated solely as a result of the actions of any employees of
Bank or an Affiliate of Bank, excluding any actions taken in good faith in
accordance with instructions provided by any person Bank believes in good faith
is an employee or representative of SPV or Servicer, SPV and Servicer agree to
be bound by any ACH Transmission, whether or not unauthorized, originated using
the Transit Numbers, and all ACH entries included in any ACH Transmission shall
be deemed to be an authorized transaction of SPV. SPV shall be liable to Bank
for the dollar amount of any ACH credit entry or any ACH debit entry which is
later returned, included in any such ACH Transmission. Bank will not grant any
other customer the right to use the Transit Numbers.

         SECTION 4.10 FRAUDULENT AND ERRONOUS ENTRIES. If Bank believes that any
ACH Transmission contains a fraudulent, erroneous or otherwise unauthorized
entry, upon notice by Bank, SPV and Servicer agree to take all actions
reasonably necessary to determine whether such entry in such ACH Transmission
was fraudulent, erroneous or otherwise unauthorized.

         SECTION 4.11 PAYMENT OF ENTRIES. SPV shall pay the Bank the amount of
each ACH credit entry in any ACH Transmission on the date such ACH credit entry
settles at the Bank's account with the Federal Reserve Bank. The Bank may
immediately debit the DDA on such date for the amount of such ACH credit entries
without any prior notice to SPV at such time as Bank may determine. Bank shall
pay SPV the amount of each ACH debit entry in any ACH Transmission on the date
such ACH debit entry settles at the Bank's account with the Federal Reserve
Bank, at such time as is typical for the Bank under the circumstances in its
ordinary course of business.

         SECTION 4.12 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. Bank shall not be deemed an agent
of and shall not be responsible for or have any liability for the acts of
omissions of any third party, including without limitation the Federal Reserve
Bank, other than an Affiliate of Bank. Bank shall have no liability for the
Federal Reserve Bank's error in processing any ACH

Transmission or any failure to process or delay in processing any ACH
Transmission, unless the Federal Reserve Bank was acting in accordance with
instructions given by Bank and such failure or delay did not result from the
negligence or misconduct of the Federal Reserve Bank. SPV shall be solely
responsible for the actions of any third party authorized to perform on its
behalf under this Agreement.

                      ARTICLE V. RPPS AND E-PAY FACILITIES

         SECTION 5.1 RPPS AND E-PAY TRANSACTIONS. Subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and the MasterCard RPPS Service Agreements or VISA
E-Pay Service Agreements, as the case requires, Bank shall facilitate the use by
SPV and Servicer, on behalf of SPV, of RPPS and E-Pay Services as contemplated
herein.

         SECTION 5.2 SERVICES, FEES, CHARGES AND VOLUME.

         (a)      [*]

         (b)      SPV shall pay to Bank for the RPPS Services such fees ("RPPS
Fees") as are specified in Exhibit C attached hereto, and immediately upon
demand pay Bank or MasterCard for all other amounts of any kind owed to
MasterCard in connection with SPV's or Servicer's use of RPPS, including without
limitation, the amount of any RPPS Transmission, any charges, fees, expenses or
penalties assessed against SPV or Bank by MasterCard for or in connection with
any RPPS Transactions and any amounts owed under any other agreement between SPV
and MasterCard. Similarly, SPV shall pay to Bank for the E-Pay Services such
fees ("E-Pay Fees") as are specified in Exhibit G attached hereto, and
immediately upon demand pay Bank or VISA for all other amounts of any kind owed
to VISA for or in connection with the SPV's or Servicer's use of E-Pay,
including without limitation, the amount of any E-Pay Transmission, any charges,
fees, expenses or penalties assessed against SPV or Bank by VISA for or in
connection with any E-Pay Transactions and any amounts owed under any other
agreement between SPV and VISA. Bank may increase the RPPS Fees and/or the E-Pay
Fees from time to time effective upon 180 day's prior written notice, or in the
event of an increase in the fees, charges, expenses or penalties imposed or
assessed by MasterCard or VISA, upon the effective date of such increase by

MasterCard or VISA; provided, however, Bank may not increase the RPPS Fees or
E-Pay Fees during the Initial Term of this Agreement, except as a result of an
increase in the fees, charges, expenses or penalties charged by MasterCard or
VISA. If the Bank increases the RPPS Fees and/or the E-Pay Fees, other than as a
result of an increase in the fees, charges, expenses or penalties imposed or
assessed by MasterCard or Visa for or in connection with any RPPS Services or
E-Pay Services, Servicer and SPV may terminate the RPPS Services or E-Pay
Services, as the case requires, without penalty upon 90 day's prior written
notice.

         (c)      SPV and Servicer will not initiate any RPPS Transmission which
would cause the aggregate total dollar amount of all RPPS Transmissions
originated on any Business Day to exceed lesser of (i) [*], or (ii) as
calculated by Bank, the sum of (a) the Immediate Fair Market Value of all
Investments at the time of such RPPS Transmission, plus (b) the aggregate total
dollar amount of all Unsettled ACH Debits (other than Uncollected ACH Debits) at

the time of such RPPS Transmission, less (d) the aggregate total dollar amount
of all ACH credit entries and E-Pay Transmissions which have been originated on
such Business Day at the time of such RPPS Transmission, less (e) the amount of
all Issued but Not Cleared Checks (the "RPPS Transmission Limit"). Bank shall
have no obligation to fund the payment of any RPPS Transmission that causes the
aggregate total dollar amount of RPPS Transmissions originated on any Business
Day to exceed the RPPS Transmission Limit, or if SPV or Servicer owes any
additional amounts to MasterCard, other than normal service charges, fees and
expenses, including penalties not in excess of $25,000, and may order MasterCard
to reject such RPPS Transmission, but shall have no liability for failing to do
so.

         (d)      SPV and Servicer will not initiate any E-Pay Transmissions
which would cause the aggregate total dollar amount of all E-Pay Transmissions
originated on any Business Day to exceed the lesser of (i) [*], or (ii)
as calculated by Bank, the sum of (a) the Immediate Fair Market Value of all
Investments at the time of such E-Pay Transmission, plus (b) the aggregate total
dollar amount of all Unsettled ACH Debits (other than Uncollected ACH Debits) at
the time of such E-Pay Transmission as reported by the Federal Reserve Bank,
less (c) the aggregate total dollar amount of all Overdraft Advances outstanding
at the time of such E-Pay Transmission, less (d) the aggregate total dollar
amount of all ACH credit entries and RPPS Transmissions which have been
originated on such Business Day at the time of such E-Pay Transmission, less (e)
the amount of all Issued but Not Cleared Checks (the "E-Pay Transmission
Limit"). Bank shall have no obligation to fund the payment of any E-Pay
Transmission that causes the aggregate total dollar amount of E-Pay
Transmissions to exceed the E-Pay Transmission Limit, or if SPV or Servicer owes
any additional amounts, other than normal service charges, fees and expenses,
including penalties not in excess of $25,000, and may order VISA to reject any
such E-Pay Transmission, but shall have no liability for failing to do so.

RPPS Transmission Limit or E-Pay Transmission Limit, as the case requires, the
Security Procedures or other processing requirements or security procedures
MasterCard or E-Pay, as the case requires, may require SPV or Servicer to
implement from time to time. Bank may, but shall have no liability for failing
to do so, refuse to honor any wire draw down or other request by MasterCard or
VISA to fund any RPPS or E-Pay Transmission, or may instruct MasterCard or VISA
to reject any RPPS or E-Pay Transmission, and Bank shall have no liability for
refusing to honor or the rejection of such RPPS or E-pay Transmission, if (i)
the Bank reasonably believes such Transmission does not comply with such
applicable Rules, the RPPS Transmission Limit or E-Pay Transmissions Limit or
other risk limits, the Security Procedures or any other processing requirements
or security procedures MasterCard or E-Pay may require SPV or Servicer to
implement from time to time, (ii) a Level Four Event of Default has occurred,
(iii) the Bank reasonably believes that any RPPS or E-Pay Transmission contains
a fraudulent entry or any Security Procedures have been breached, or (iv) the
ownership of the Subscriber Funds or the authority of SPV or Servicer to
transmit any entry in an RPPS Transmission or E-Pay Transmission is challenged
in connection with any Litigation brought by any Person, which shall, in the
reasonable determination of the Bank after consultation with Servicer, be deemed
meritorious, unless SPV has provided Bank with additional cash collateral equal
to the amount of Subscriber Funds in dispute to satisfy SPV's obligations to
fund any RPPS or E-Pay

Transmission originated in the amount of such disputed funds. SPV and Servicer
acknowledge that once SPV or Servicer has originated a RPPS Transmission or
E-Pay Transmission, (a) the SPV and Servicer will not have the right or be able
to (but may request that MasterCard or Visa, as appropriate) cancel or amend
such RPPS or E-Pay Transmission, (b) Bank shall have no ability to cancel or

the SPV or Servicer to use the Bank's ICA or BIN Numbers, as the case requires.
Should the Federal Reserve Bank or any other state or federal regulatory agency

E-PAY Services, refuse to continue to permit Bank to provide the RPPS or E-Pay
Services to SPV or Servicer, or change the method of operations involving the
RPPS or E-Pay Services, or should Bank's provision of the RPPS or E-Pay Services
or any part thereof be or become in violation of any court order, law,
regulation, circular, or official interpretation or letter of a regulatory
agency, then Bank will not be required to continue providing the affected RPPS

efforts to attempt to assist SPV and Servicer in determining if any alternative

price and other terms with respect to any such alternative servicing
arrangements that Bank may elect to provide. SPV and Servicer agree that they
will fully comply with all applicable state and federal laws, regulations, and
Federal Reserve Bank operating circulars, and with the RPPS and E-Pay Rules, as
such laws, regulations, operating letters, and RPPS and E-Pay Rules are amended
from time to time, and SPV and Servicer acknowledge that such amendments may
necessitate a change in Bank's pricing. Insofar as Bank's cooperation is
necessary to enable SPV and Servicer to comply with the foregoing, Bank will
reasonably cooperate with SPV and Servicer. In addition, Bank, Servicer, and SPV

hereunder. Bank may terminate its obligations under this Agreement to provide,
RPPS Services or E-Pay Services at any time upon written notice to SPV after
receipt by Bank of notice from MasterCard or VISA that MasterCard or VISA has
terminated access to RPPS or E-Pay, as the case requires.

limitation of, or any modification or change in the business relationship of any
Company and any customer or supplier, or any group of customers or suppliers,
where such termination, cancellation, limitation or modification would have a
Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of SPV and Servicer, there exists no
present condition or state of facts or circumstances that would reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on any Company in any respect or
prevent a Company from conducting such business or the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement in substantially the same manner in which it was previously
conducted.

         SECTION 8.8 CONSENTS OR APPROVALS. No consent, approval or
authorization of, or filing, registration or qualification with, any

insolvent as defined in any applicable state or federal statute, nor will
Servicer, Parent or SPV be rendered insolvent by the execution and delivery of
the Transaction Documents to Bank or performance thereunder. Servicer, Parent
and SPV are not engaged or about to engage in any business or transaction for

                                       44

<PAGE>

taking into consideration the obligations to Bank incurred hereunder. Servicer,
Parent and SPV do not intend to, nor do they believe that they will, incur debts
beyond their ability to pay such debts as they mature.

         SECTION 8.10 MATERIAL AGREEMENTS. The securities filings of Parent set

has the right to use all of the patents, patent applications, trademarks,
service marks, copyrights, licenses, and rights with respect to the foregoing
necessary for the conduct of its business without any conflict with the rights
of others, except where the lack of such ownership, possession or right would
not have a Material Adverse Effect.

         SECTION 8.12 INSURANCE. Each Company maintains with financially sound
and reputable insurers insurance with coverage and limits as required by law and
as is customary with persons engaged in the same businesses as the Companies.
Schedule 8.12 hereto sets forth all insurance carried by the Companies, setting

nor will any begin to exist immediately after the execution and delivery hereof.

         SECTION 8.15 RIGHTS IN ACCOUNTS. SPV represents that it has the right,

provided herein and in the other Transaction Documents.

         SECTION 8.16 PRIVACY. SPV, Parent and Servicer are and shall continue
to be in compliance with all obligations with respect to privacy and information
reporting required by applicable law and regulations, except where the failure
to comply with such requirements does not have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  (ii)     Until the Transition Completion Date Bank shall be
         entitled to (A) take such steps as it may determine to ensure that SPV
         maintains cash and Investments in the Accounts with an Immediate Fair
         Market Value equal to or greater than the amount necessary to fund (1)
         each ACH credit entry contained in any ACH Transmission, each RPPS
         Transmission, and each E-Pay Transmissions, from the time each such
         ACH, RPPS or E-Pay Transmission is originated until the entries in each
         such ACH, RPPS or E-Pay Transmission have settled, and (2) any other
         debit against or transfer from the DDA; and (B) take possession and
         control of any or all of the Overnight Accounts, Custody Accounts or
         Investments and liquidate or instruct any Securities Intermediary with
         which SPV maintains any Investment, Custodian or Investment Advisor to
         liquidate Investments in an amount sufficient to fund the amount of all
         ACH, RPPS or E-Pay Transmissions, at the time any such ACH, RPPS or
         E-Pay Transmission is originated, or any other debit or transfer drawn
         on the DDA.

                  (iii)    Until the Transition Completion Date, (A) the Credit
         Cap will be the lesser of (1) [*], and (2), as calculated by
         Bank, the sum of (x) Immediate Fair Market Value of cash and
         Investments in the Accounts, less (y) any RPPS or E-Pay Transmissions
         originated on such Business Day at the time of such ACH Transmission,
         less (z) any other debits against or transfer from the DDA, and (B) the
         Debit Cap will be the lesser of (1) [*], and (2) the amount
         calculated for the Debit Cap under Section 4.4.

                  (iv)     Until the Transition Completion Date, the RPPS

         sum of (1) the Immediate Fair Market Value of cash and Investments in
         the Accounts, less (2) any ACH or E-Pay Transmissions originated on
         such Business Day at the time of such RPPS Transmission, less (3) any

         Completion Date, the E-Pay Transmission Limit will be the lesser of (A)
         [*] and (B) the sum of (1) the Immediate Fair Market Value of
         cash and Investments in the Accounts, less (2) any ACH or RPPS
         Transmissions originated on such Business Day at the time of such E-Pay
         Transmission, less (3) any other debits against or transfers from the

                  (v)      Prior to the end of the Returns Period, SPV and
         Servicer, on behalf of SPV, may use the old Sending Point ID to
         originate ACH credit and debit entry transmissions over Federal Reserve
         Bank Circuit leased by SunTrust using the KeyBank routing and transit
         numbers currently used. Bank shall have no obligation to, monitor or
         liability for, any ACH credit or debit transmissions originated using
         the KeyBank routing and transit numbers.

         (b)      SPV may maintain a Deposit Account with KeyBank with a balance
of up to $5,000,000 for a period of seventy-five (75) days after the Transition
Completion Date (the "Returns Period") to fund any returns or adjustments for
errors related to any ACH debit entries or other amounts credited to a Deposit
Account with KeyBank in connection with the Business. At the end of the Returns
Period, all funds in such Deposit Account with KeyBank will be transferred to
the DDA and such Deposit Account will be closed.

         SECTION 11.7 CAPITAL ADEQUACY. If Bank shall have determined, after the
Agreement Date, that the adoption of any applicable law, rule, regulation or
guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in
the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority,
central bank or comparable agency charged with the

                                       56

<PAGE>

interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Bank (or its lending
office) with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not
having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable
agency, which adoption or change must, in all instances, be of generally
applicability to all banks and not specifically directed to Bank as a result of
a condition, practice or activity of Bank, has or would have the effect of
reducing the rate of return on Bank's capital (or the capital of its holding
company) as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that
which Bank (or its holding company) could have achieved but for such adoption,
change or compliance (taking into consideration Bank's policies or the policies
of its holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by
Bank to be material, then from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after
demand by Bank, Servicer and SPV shall pay to Bank such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate Bank (or its holding company) for such reduction.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the change in charges to SPV and Servicer is
material, SPV and Servicer may terminate this Agreement on 180 days prior
written notice to Bank. Bank shall designate a different lending office if such
designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation
and will not, in the judgment of Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to Bank and
will not, in the judgment of SPV and Servicer, materially adversely affect SPV
or Servicer in connection with the Services. A certificate of Bank claiming
compensation under this Section 11.6 and setting forth the additional amount or
amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of
manifest error. In determining such amount, Bank may use any reasonable
averaging and attribution methods. Failure on the part of Bank to demand
compensation for any reduction in return on capital with respect to any period
shall not constitute a waiver of Bank's rights to demand compensation for any
reduction in return on capital in such period or in any other period. The
protection of this Section 11.6 shall be available to Bank regardless of any
possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the law, regulation
or other condition that shall have been imposed.

         SECTION 11.8 REGULATION AND EXAMINATION. Bank, Servicer and SPV
understand and agree that the performance of obligations under this Agreement is
subject, without notice, to the regulation and examination of the Comptroller of
the Currency, Federal Reserve Board, the Georgia Department of Banking and
Finance, or such other governmental agency as shall have jurisdiction over the
subject matter hereof.

         SECTION 11.9 CONFIDENTIALITY.

         (a)      Bank will safeguard, and hold confidential from disclosure to
unauthorized persons, all data of Servicer and SPV to which Bank or one of its
Affiliates obtains access pursuant to this Agreement to the same extent that
Bank safeguards data relating to its own business, unless such data are
otherwise available to the public or are already in Bank's possession and were
rightfully obtained by it from others, or unless such disclosure is required by
law or regulation. In such case, Bank will bear no responsibility for
disclosures thereof or with respect thereto, whether inadvertent or otherwise.
Bank's obligations herein shall be perpetual and shall survive and continue
after termination.

         (b)      Servicer and SPV will safeguard, and hold confidential from
disclosure to unauthorized persons, all data owned or licensed by Bank or one of
its Affiliates to which Servicer or SPV obtains access pursuant to this
Agreement to the same extent that Servicer or SPV safeguards data relating to
its own business, unless such data are otherwise available to the

                                       57

<PAGE>

public or are already in Servicer or SPV's possession and were rightfully
obtained by it from others, or unless required by law or regulation. In such
case, neither SPV of Servicer will bear any responsibility for disclosures
thereof or with respect thereto, whether inadvertent or otherwise. Servicer's
and SPV's obligations herein shall be perpetual and shall survive and continue
after termination.

         (c)      To the extent that in connection with the Services, Bank
obtains access to or possession of non-public personal financial information of
Subscribers, Bank shall implement appropriate administrative, technical, and
physical safeguards to protect the security, confidentiality and integrity of
such information in accordance with all applicable Laws. It shall not use any
such information except to the extent necessary to carry out the Services or as
otherwise specifically permitted by applicable law.

         (d)      No party to this Agreement has made any statement or
representation to the other regarding the federal tax consequences or federal
tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or has imposed
(and this Agreement does not impose) any conditions of confidentiality on the
disclosure thereof. The intent and purpose of this Section 11.9(d) is to assure
that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not treated as offered
under "conditions of confidentiality" within the meaning of the Code and Section
1.6011-4 of the regulations promulgated thereunder, and thus this Section shall
be construed and interpreted consistently with such intent.

         SECTION 11.10 DUE CARE.

         (a)      Bank, Servicer, and SPV will exercise due care in performing
their respective obligations hereunder and each party will, in the event of an
error or omission attributable to the malfunction of equipment which it owns or
leases or to the acts, negligence, or the failure of operators, programmers, or
other personnel or programs employed by them, which error or omission impedes
the performance of such party's obligations hereunder, use reasonable efforts to
correct such error or omission, and provide prompt notice of the error or
omission to the other party.

         (b)      No party shall be liable to the other for any nonperformance
if it is prevented from performing any task hereunder in whole or in part as a
result of an act of God, war, civil disturbance, labor dispute, or other cause
beyond its reasonable control, provided, that it has taken reasonable steps and
precautions to minimize the delay caused by such event and it commences
performance as soon as reasonably possible after the occurrence.

         SECTION 11.11 NO WAIVER; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES; RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES.
No omission or course of dealing on the part of Bank in exercising any right,
power or remedy hereunder or under any of the Transaction Documents shall
operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or
the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder or under any of the
Transaction Documents. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and in
addition to any other rights, powers or privileges held or available under any
of the Transaction Documents or by operation of law, by contract or otherwise
and any rights, powers or privileges held or available under any Transaction
Documents are in addition to any remedies hereunder. Nothing contained in this
Agreement and no action taken by Bank pursuant hereto shall be

                                       58

<PAGE>

deemed to constitute Servicer, SPV and Bank a partnership, association, joint
venture or other entity. The relationship among Servicer, SPV and Bank with
respect to the Transaction Documents is and shall be solely that of obligor and
service provider, respectively, and Bank shall have no fiduciary obligation
toward Servicer and SPV, with respect to any such documents or the transactions
contemplated thereby.

         SECTION 11.12 AMENDMENTS, CONSENTS. No amendment, modification,
termination, or waiver of any provision of any Transaction Document nor consent
to any variance therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in
writing and signed by the Parties hereto (provided, however, that a waiver or
consent may be signed by the party granting such waiver or consent without the
need for the signature of the other party or parties hereto). Any such waiver or
consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which given.

         SECTION 11.13 COSTS, EXPENSES AND TAXES. Servicer and SPV agree to pay
on demand all costs and expenses of Bank, and all Related Expenses, including
but not limited to, administration, travel and out-of-pocket expenses (including
but not limited to attorneys' fees and expenses) of Bank in connection with the
restructuring or enforcement of the Obligations, this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document. In addition, Servicer and SPV shall pay any and all stamp
and other taxes, other than income, franchise or similar taxes imposed on the
Bank, and fees payable or determined to be payable in connection with the
execution and delivery of any Transaction Document, and the other instruments
and documents to be delivered hereunder, and agrees to hold Bank harmless from
and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay
in paying or omission to pay such taxes or fees.

         SECTION 11.14 INDEMNIFICATION. Each of Servicer and SPV, severally and
not jointly, agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Bank (and its
Affiliates, officers, directors, attorneys, agents and employees) from and
against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including attorneys' fees), or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred
by or asserted against Bank in connection with, relating to or arising out of
the Transaction Documents, whether or not the conditions to Bank's obligations
to provide any of the Services have been satisfied or any transactions
contemplated by any of the Transaction Documents have been consummated, any
actual or proposed use of proceeds of any Overdraft Advance, the purchase of any
Investments or any of the Obligations, or any activities of any Company or any
Obligor or any of their respective Affiliates; provided that Bank shall not have
the right to be indemnified under this Section 11.14 for its own gross
negligence or willful, reckless or intentional misconduct. All obligations
provided for in this Section 11.14 shall survive any termination of this
Agreement.

         SECTION 11.15 BINDING EFFECT; ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement shall become
effective when it shall have been executed by Servicer, SPV and Bank and
thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Servicer, SPV and
Bank and their respective successors and assigns, except that Servicer and SPV
shall not have the right to assign their rights hereunder or any interest herein
without the prior written consent of Bank such consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld.

         SECTION 11.16 GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. This
Agreement, and the other Transaction Documents shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia and the respective
rights and obligations of Servicer, SPV and Bank shall be governed by Georgia
law, without regard to principles of conflict of laws. Servicer and SPV hereby
irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any Georgia state or
federal court sitting in Atlanta, Georgia, over any action or proceeding arising
out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, and
Servicer and SPV hereby irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of such
action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such Georgia state or
federal court. Servicer and SPV, on behalf of themselves and their Subsidiaries,
hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection
they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue in any action or
proceeding in any such court as well as any right they may now or hereafter have
to remove such action or proceeding, once commenced, to another court on the
grounds of FORUM NON CONVENIENS or otherwise. Servicer and SPV agree that a
final, nonappealable judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be
conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or
in any other manner provided by law.

         SECTION 11.17 SEVERABILITY OF PROVISIONS; CAPTIONS; ATTACHMENTS. Any
provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining
provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision
in any other jurisdiction. The several captions to sections herein are inserted
for convenience only and shall be ignored in interpreting the provisions of this
Agreement. Each schedule or exhibit attached to this Agreement shall be
incorporated herein and shall be deemed to be a part hereof.

         SECTION 11.18 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement and all other
Transaction Documents or other agreements, documents or instruments attached
hereto or executed on or as of the Agreement Date integrate all the terms and
conditions mentioned herein or incidental hereto and supersede all oral
representations and negotiations and prior writings with respect to the subject
matter hereof.

         SECTION 11.19 RULE OF CONSTRUCTION. The Transaction Documents were
negotiated by the parties with the benefit of legal representation and any rule
of construction or interpretation otherwise requiring this Agreement or any
other Transaction Document to be construed or interpreted against any party
shall not apply to any construction or interpretation hereof or thereof.

         SECTION 11.20 EXECUTION IN COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed
in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate
counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be
an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the
same agreement.

         SECTION 11.21 JURY TRIAL WAIVER. SERVICER, SPV AND BANK WAIVE ANY RIGHT
TO HAVE A JURY PARTICIPATE IN RESOLVING ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN
CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, AMONG SERVICER, SPV, PARENT AND BANK, ARISING OUT
OF, IN CONNECTION WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP
ESTABLISHED AMONG THEM IN
