GREEN DOT PAYCARD® PROGRAM
CORPORATE PREPAID CARD PROGRAM AGREEMENT
This CORPORATE PREPAID CARD PROGRAM AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is entered into by and
between Green Dot Corporation, a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware,
with its principal offices at 114 W 7th Street, Suite 240, Austin, TX 78701 ("Green Dot") and the City of
Fresno, a municipal corporation, organized under the laws of the state of California with its offices at
2600 Fresno Street, Fresno, CA 93721-3620 ("Company"), in consideration of the promises and
undertakings set forth below, Green Dot and Company agree as follows:
1. GENERAL OVERVIEW.
a) Company has elected to use the services of the prepaid card program ("Program") more fully
described in Exhibit A. Under the Program, designated employees or independent contractors
("Participants") will be issued prepaid paycards funded by Company ("Cards"). Participants who
are issued Cards are referred to herein as "Cardholders." Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary, the parties agree that Cardholders may also fund the Cards in accordance with the
terms and conditions that accompany the Cards.
b) The Cards shall be issued by a FDIC -insured bank selected by Green Dot for the Program
("Bank"), where all Program funds will be held. Certain services selected by Company may
require deposits provided by Company to be held at a correspondent bank to the issuing Bank.
Green Dot shall have the right to move the Cards to a new issuing Bank without'written notice
to Company except where such notice is required by applicable law and in such case appropriate
notice will be given and then the Cards will be moved.
c) Each Participant shall enroll in the Program by submitting certain information, and Participant's
access to the Program shall be contingent on successful completion of "know your customer"
due diligence and other legal requirements. The terms and conditions governing the use of the
Cards and the accounts associated with such Cards will be supplied by Bank. Sub -Accounts
shall be opened only for Participants that are residents of the United States or its territories.
d) Funding by Company may be made to a pooled custodial account maintained for the purpose of
disbursing funds to the Cards (the Controlled Account"). To facilitate a Participant's use of Cards,
a sub -account under the Controlled Account will be established for such Participant (the "Sub -
Account"). The Controlled Account will be accessed by the Company through a pass code
protected, secure web portal and will be used to load funds to Cards, either individually or in
batch files. These transactions are processed as soon as the requests are received and funds
are then available to Participants. Company shall be able to make instant loads to Cards as
needed with no requirement for a minimum balance to be maintained in the account, except that
Company must maintain sufficient funds in the Controlled Account to cover the disbursements
that it is directing to be made to Participants. Green Dot or its delegate shall maintain individual
entries in its system, reconciled each day to amounts in each Sub -Account, reflecting the amount
DocuSign Envelope ID: 07983C35-01F2-495C-82C5-73BB29E899AF
of funds in the Sub -Account that are attributable to, and held on behalf of, each Participant.
Green Dot or its delegate shall also maintain such records as are required by the FDIC to obtain
"pass through" insurance coverage for each Participant whose funds are in a Sub -Account.
Additional details on Card funding are included in Exhibit A, attached hereto. Unless otherwise
prohibited by law, Company, or any successor or assign of Company, including any receiver or
trustee in bankruptcy on behalf of Company, shall maintain its right, title or interest in any funds
in the Controlled Account.
e) If Company elects to allow subsidiaries and affiliates to participate in the Program ("Participating
Affiliate"), each Participating Affiliate may enroll in the Program by completing the Affiliate
Account Request Form, which shall be provided to Company upon its request. Each Participating
Affiliate will be given access to the Program with their own Bank Controlled Account following
execution of the Affiliate Account Request Form. Participants will be given Sub -Accounts and
Cards connected to the Participating Affiliate's Bank Controlled Account.
f) Green Dot may use Company's name and logo (and any client testimonial provided by
Company) from time to time in order to identify Company as a participating client for sales and
marketing purposes.
2. COMPANY RESPONSIBILITIES.
a) Company represents and warrants that all information and data, including payment data,
submitted to Green Dot or Bank in connection with Participants and the Program is true, accurate
and complete, and is sufficient to enable Bank to allocate the funds among the various Sub -
Accounts and honor withdrawal requests by Participants. Company agrees that Bank and Green
Dot may rely on such data without any obligation to verify it.
b) Company shall deposit the funds due to Participants into the designated Controlled Account by
wire transfer or ACH transfer, at the discretion of Company. Along with each transfer of funds by
Company to the Controlled Account, Company shall provide, in the format specified by Green
Dot, the identity of, and the amount of such funds due to, each Participant ("Disbursement
Detail"). Company acknowledges that funds will be made available to Participants commencing
on the business day the cleared funds are received and the corresponding Disbursement Detail.
Neither Green Dot or Bank shall have any obligation to make any funds available to Participants
for whom the Disbursement Detail is missing or incomplete or if records indicate that insufficient
funds are available to complete a transaction.
c) Subject to Section 7 and 8 hereof, Green Dot may permit Company to maintain an inventory of
instant issue Cards at its locations subject to the following terms:
i. Card Ordering: Upon Company's request, to be approved and confirmed by Green Dot,
Card orders will be shipped to Company's designated location(s) by the Card
manufacturer and will arrive via a bonded and approved carrier. Card orders must be
signed for upon arrival. All Cards must be placed at the time of receipt into inventory in a
DocuSign Envelope ID: 07983C35-01F2-495C-82C5-73BB29E899AF
secured area. A Company employee designated by management should be appointed to
ensure the physical and procedural security policies are implemented.
ii. Card Inventory: Company must maintain the physical security of the Cards in inventory
at all times. Cards must be stored in a controlled environment, such as a safe, with access
limited to Company employees who have successfully passed background screening
checks. An inventory log must account for the number of Cards received, Cards used,
Cards spoiled (Cards that cannot be used due to damage, tampering or expiration) and
remaining Cards that should balance to the number of Cards on hand at any time. An
explanation of spoilage should be included on the log. Any inventory discrepancy must
be reported to Green Dot as soon as detected. Company shall bear all risk of loss
associated with unauthorized activity on Cards or related funds on deposit resulting from
unauthorized access to or theft of Cards in its possession or control. If Company is
disbursing Cards, Company shall deliver to each Participant the Enrollment Materials
provided to it by Green Dot.
iii. Enrollment Materials: The Enrollment Materials include, without limitation, the Cardholder
Agreement, a Card, a Direct Deposit Authorization Form, disclosures as may be required
by applicable law and regulation and other materials. Company agrees that it will provide
Enrollment Materials to each Participant when Company provides a Card from its
inventory.
iv. Card Destruction: Green Dot may request return or destruction of unused Cards (1) that
are compromised or tampered with; (2) that are on expired Card stock; (3) that are
damaged or defective; and (4) that are in the possession of the Company after the
program is terminated. Cards to be returned to Green Dot should be securely packaged.
A copy of the inventory log should be included with the shipment.
d) Company shall comply with all laws, rules, regulations, and orders, as well as all bylaws, rules,
regulations, requirements and interpretations issued by a payment card network (including,
without limitation, Visa, Mastercard, and their respective affiliates) or otherwise published or
otherwise communicated to Cardholders, as amended from time to time by each relevant Card
network ("Card Network Rules") applicable to Company's performance and its obligations under
the Agreement. Company represents and warrants that it will not use the Program, and will use
its best efforts to prevent itself or the Program from being used, for any illegal purpose or activity,
including without limitation, fraud or money laundering.
e) Without limiting the foregoing, Company will be solely responsible for compliance with federal,
state and local laws, rules and regulations relating to compensation and employment matters.
Company will offer all Participants alternative methods of payment to the Cards in accordance
with applicable laws.
DocuSign Envelope ID: 07983C35-01 F2-495C-82C5-73BB29E899AF
f) Company will be solely responsible for the performance, breach, or liabilities arising from or
related to its third -party vendors (including, without limitation, payroll providers and/or payment
processors who are not Green Dot subcontractors with respect to this Agreement).
g) Company will keep records of all transactions and activities performed under this Agreement for
a period of not less than six (6) years after the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
h) Company acknowledges that, for expediency, this Agreement is being entered into prior to
Company having undergone mandatory Green Dot new partner compliance and risk reviews,
that no services shall be provided hereunder prior to Company successfully passing such
reviews, and that services and/or this Agreement may be suspended or terminated by Green
Dot at any time as a result of such reviews. Such reviews shall include, but not be limited to,
financial, reputational, and BSA/AML/OFAC risks, and may be re -conducted periodically
throughout the term. Green Dot's entry into this Agreement shall not in any manner be deemed
to constitute or waive such initial or continuing approvals. Company agrees to timely provide
Green Dot with such accurate and complete information and documentation as Green Dot may
reasonably request in connection with such reviews.
3. GREEN DOT RESPONSIBILITIES.
a) Green Dot will operate, maintain, and administer the Program.

4. FEES AND CHARGES. Company acknowledges that certain fees and charges are to be paid by
Participants, and that such fees and charges shall be set forth in a disclosure statement that will be

DocuSign Envelope ID: 07983C35-01F2-495C-82C5-73BB29E899AF
prior written notice to Participants in accordance with applicable law.

(180) days' notice.
b) Green Dot may terminate this agreement upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice (or less if

c) Green Dot may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Company, without any penalty,
payment, or further obligation, in the event that: (i) Company becomes the subject of material
litigation, threatened material litigation or publicity that in Green Dot's reasonable discretion
reflects, or has the capacity to reflect, negatively on Company's or Green Dot's business; (ii)
Company becomes involved in a situation that brings Company or Green Dot into public
disrepute, contempt, scandal, or ridicule; (iii) Green Dot determines (in its sole and absolute
discretion) that Company's access to or participation in Green Dot disbursements platform
presents excessive financial, reputational, operational, compliance, actual or suspected fraud or
unauthorized use, legal, regulatory, contractual, or other risk to Green Dot that cannot be
corrected in a reasonable timeframe; or (iv) following a data incident as described at Section
7(c) below, Company fails to take the actions required by such section to prevent the recurrence
of any such data incident.
d) Either party may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the other
party, if such party breaches or violates any provision of this Agreement and any such default,
breach or violation, as described in such notice with specificity and in reasonable detail, is not
remedied in all material respects within the applicable thirty (30) day notice period.
e) In addition, either party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice if the other party
becomes the subject of a voluntary bankruptcy petition or any other voluntary proceeding relating
to insolvency; or (ii) without prior notice if the other party becomes the subject of an involuntary
petition in bankruptcy or any other involuntary proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership or
liquidation, and such voluntary petition or proceeding is not dismissed within sixty (60) days.
f) Upon termination, Participants will be subject to manual CIP procedures as further described in
Exhibit A, and, upon successfully passing such CIP procedures, shall be permitted to use Cards
after termination to access their funds in the relevant Sub -Account. Company will immediately
return all Cards in its possession that have not been issued to a Participant to Green Dot, under
the procedures communicated to Company by Green Dot.
DocuSign Envelope ID: 07983C35-01F2-495C-82C5-73BB29E899AF
6. SYSTEM AND TRANSACTION MONITORING. Green Dot reserves the right for Green Dot or its
authorized agents to monitor Card activity, and to refuse to issue a Card, cancel a Card previously
issued to a Participant or temporarily suspend usage of a Card or the Program, due to actual or
suspected fraud or unauthorized use, and to comply with applicable law, Card Network Rules and
bank safety and soundness requirements. Except as prohibited by applicable law, Bank shall
disburse to the Participant any funds remaining on a cancelled Card and any funds in the Controlled
Account to the Company.
7. DATA SECURITY.
a) Company acknowledges that it is responsible for the security of all Cards, Cardholder data and
related Participant information in its possession or which it accesses. In connection with this
Agreement, Company shall comply with generally accepted and applicable security controls,
standards, and regulations as well as other requirements for the safeguarding of Cards and
Cardholder information which may be required by applicable law, rule, and/or regulation
including but not limited to Card Network Rules, and any and all reasonable requirements as set
forth in writing by Green Dot. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in addition to other
requirements which may be imposed on Company by Green Dot, Bank or a card network,
Company shall remit information to Green Dot in a secure or protected format, such as
encryption. Green Dot shall use commercially reasonable efforts to give Company notice of all
material changes to the Program which are being made to comply with changes in law or Card
Network Rules, including industry rules related to applicable security controls, standards, and
regulations.
b) To ensure that Company is complying with the requirements of this Section 7, Green Dot may
request Company to provide the details of the security measures and systems used by Company
to access the services and/or facilitate such access by Participants and may carry out an
inspection or audit of Company's such measures and systems. Company agrees to cooperate
fully with any such requested audits. Regardless of contract termination, Company will continue
to treat Cards and Participant data as confidential.
c) Company shall promptly notify Green Dot (and in any case within 48 hours) once it has
knowledge of or reasonably suspects that there has been any unauthorized access, use or
disclosure of any non-public personal information, Card or Participant information, and shall
promptly furnish to Green Dot the known details of any such data incident, and take such action
as may be necessary to prevent a reoccurrence of any such incident.
8. LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY AND SPECIAL DAMAGES.
a) Company acknowledges that the Program is supported by a complex combination of hardware
and software systems that are hosted by and/or interfaced with numerous other service
providers and, accordingly, system and operational failures, malfunctions and other errors may
occur from time to time resulting in, among other things, system access denials and/or delays,
and periods when usage is suspended. Green Dot shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
DocuSign Envelope ID: 07983C35-01F2-495C-82C5-73BB29E899AF
minimize system and operational problems. In addition, it is possible that system and operational
problems (including ACH failures) may occur due to numerous matters beyond the reasonable
control of Green Dot, including force majeure. With respect to the foregoing, and any other claim
that Company may raise in connection with the services provided pursuant to this Agreement,
Green Dot shall not be liable to Company for any reason other than its breach of this Agreement,
willful misconduct, or gross negligence.
b) No claim may be asserted against Green Dot by Company more than two (2) years after the
date such claim accrued.
c) IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE UNDER ANY THEORY OF TORT,
CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY FOR ANY
EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS, OR
BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, EACH OF WHICH IS HEREBY EXCLUDED BY AGREEMENT OF
THE PARTIES REGARDLESS OF WHETHER A PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. GREEN DOT AND/OR BANK'S AGGREGATE LIABILITY
FOR ANY AND ALL CAUSES OF ACTION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE LIMITED
TO ACTUAL DAMAGES NOT TO EXCEED CARD FEES ACTUALLY RECEIVED BY GREEN
DOT IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT WITHIN A TWELVE-MONTH PERIOD
PRECEDING THE FIRST CLAIM. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY IN THIS
SECTION 8 SHALL NOT APPLY TO ANY LIABILITY ARISING FROM ANY INDEMNITY
OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER.
9. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES. GREEN DOT SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES
OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT,
INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR
A PARTICULAR PURPOSE EACH OF WHICH IS HEREBY EXCLUDED BY AGREEMENT OF
THE PARTIES. BOTH PARTIES HEREBY AGREE THAT GREEN DOT'S OBLIGATIONS TO
COMPANY ARE RELATED TO PROVIDING A PREPAID CARD PROGRAM TO COMPANY AND
THAT THIS AGREEMENT IS A SERVICE AGREEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE UNIFORM
COMMERCIAL CODE AND THEREFORE THE PROVISIONS OF THE UNIFORM COMMERCIAL
CODE SHALL NOT APPLY TO THIS AGREEMENT.
10. CONFIDENTIALITY.
a) "Confidential Information" shall mean information relating to a party, its business or assets or
that of any of its clients, customers, affiliates, subcontractors or other persons that is not
generally known to the public, whether of a technical, business or other nature, that is disclosed
by one party (collectively with its employees, affiliates agents, partners, directors, shareholders,
the "Disclosing Party") to the other party (collectively with its employees, affiliates, agents,
partners, directors, shareholders and any other person with whom such party has dealings in
connection with the performance of its obligations hereunder or the Confidential Information, the
"Receiving Party"); provided, that Confidential Information shall not include any information that:
DocuSign Envelope ID: 07983C35-01F2-495C-82C5-73BB29E899AF
(i) is or becomes publicly available through publication, inspection of commercially available
product, or otherwise without breach of this Agreement, unless further disclosure is otherwise
prohibited by law; (ii) was known to the Receiving Party at the time of its receipt from the
Disclosing Party without the Receiving Party owing any obligation of confidentiality; (iii) is
received from a third party who has the right to disclose such information to Receiving Party
without any obligations of confidentiality; or (iv) can be demonstrated in writing to have been
independently developed by the Receiving Party without the use or reference to the Disclosing
Party's Confidential Information or intellectual property.
b) Each of the parties agrees: (i) to hold Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party in strict
confidence and to preserve and protect such Confidential Information until it is returned or
destroyed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; (ii) to prevent the use of Confidential
Information other than in accordance with this Agreement, and not to disclose, discuss,
communicate or transmit Confidential Information to others (other than as set forth in Sections
10(c) below); and (iii) to use Confidential Information solely to exercise its rights and perform its
obligations under this Agreement. In particular, each party agrees it will not use, divulge, or grant
any third -party access to, Participant or Card transaction information, except to carry out its
obligations under this Agreement and as required by law.
c) If the Receiving Party is required by court order, other governmental authority, or law to disclose
any confidential information of the other party, the Receiving Party will promptly notify the
Disclosing Party (to the extent permitted by applicable law) and reasonably cooperate in
Disclosing Party's efforts to obtain a protective order at the Disclosing Party's cost. If the
Disclosing Party does not seek or fails to obtain a protective order, the Receiving Party will
disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information which its legal counsel determines it is
required to disclose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party may without notice
disclose Confidential Information to governmental agencies that regulate the Receiving Party or
an affiliate of the Receiving Party, upon such agency's request, provided such request is in
connection with a routine audit or examination not directed at the Disclosing Party.
d) The parties further agree that any obligations to protect Confidential Information is set forth
herein shall survive termination of this Agreement for a period of three years, except that as to
any Confidential Information designated in writing by the disclosing party to be a "trade secret"
or is personal information of the Participant, such obligations shall continue indefinitely unless
otherwise agreed in writing by the Disclosing Party. The Receiving Party understands that any
violation of this Section 10 may cause the Disclosing Party immediate and irreparable harm
which monetary damages may not adequately remedy. Accordingly, each party agrees that the
Disclosing Party will have the right to seek equitable relief without the requirement to post bond
to enjoin any unauthorized use or disclosure of its Confidential Information, in addition to any
other rights and remedies that it may have at law or otherwise.
11.INDEMNIFICATION. Company shall fully indemnify, defend and hold harmless Green Dot and its
affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, successors
DocuSign Envelope ID: 07983C35-01F2-495C-82C5-73BB29E899AF
and assigns (collectively, "Indemnitees") from and against any and all claims, damages, liabilities,

considered third parties under this Agreement.

severed from this Agreement and all of the other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and
effect as if such provision had never been included herein.
13. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement, as well as the rights and duties of the parties hereunder, shall
be governed by, interpreted under and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of
California, without regard to choice of law and conflict of law statutes. Subject to the binding

resolve within fourteen (14) days of initially raising such dispute in accordance with the notice
requirements under this Agreement shall be escalated by the parties internally to their respective
employees in senior management positions holding relevant authority over the subject matter of
the dispute ("Management -Level Escalation"); provided, however, that a party may seek
injunctive relief for a breach of confidentiality prior to Management -Level Escalation or

Exhibit A
DESCRIPTION OF PREPAID CARD PROGRAMS
A. PAYROLL CARD PROGRAM:
a. Company may elect to use the Program to enable the payment of payroll and other work -related incentives
to its Participant employees, independent contractors.
b. Company represents and warrants that it complies with applicable laws and regulations concerning payment of
wages to the Participants, including, but not limited to 1-9 form completion, timeliness of payments, procedures
to pay wages, calculation of net pay, distribution of wage statements and handling and reporting amounts
withheld or deducted from each Participant's pay, and obtaining consent, as may be required by law, of each
Participant who has elected to participate in the Program. By signing the attached Exhibit B, Company is
requesting the removal of the independent identity verification requirement by Green Dot and agrees to retain
all Participant Documents as described therein.
c. Card funding.
I. Batch File Payroll Initiation or API: Company sends Green Dot an encrypted file via Secure File Transfer
Protocol ("SFTP") instructing the Green Dot system how much money to load to each Card. Separately,
Company sends the funds to the Bank in one aggregate ACH or wire transaction prior to the posting
date and time.
ii. ACH Direct Deposit: Company may enter the Participant's Card routing and account number into its
direct deposit payroll software and originate ACH payroll transactions. This is the same process the
Company would use for direct deposit to a bank account.
iii. Off Cycle Batch File: Company may send Green Dot an encrypted file via SFTP instructing the Green
Dot system to load funds, make corrections, and perform off -cycle payments. Cards are funded from a
prefunded disbursement account at the Bank or a correspondent bank. This method could be used by
the Company for both regular payroll as well as exception/off-cycle pay. The batch funding process for
regular payroll would mitigate ACH fees assessed by the Company's banking partner.
iv. Web Portal: The Green Dot team's proprietary employer Web portal offers password -protected access
to a secure website where Company can load funds to Cards, either individually or in batch files.
Transactions are processed and funds are available to Cardholders immediately following file
processing. Participant's cards are funded from a prefunded disbursement account at the Bank or a
correspondent bank.
B. GENERAL PURPOSE CARD PROGRAM:
a. Company may elect to use the Green Dot General Purpose Card Program to provide miscellaneous
incentives and gifts to its employees, independent contractors.
b. All Cardholders using a Green Dot General Purpose Card Program will be subject to a verification process.
Green Dot and the Bank are required by federal law to maintain a written anti -money laundering ("AML")
program. The Cardholder Identification Process ("CIP") is a component of this AML program. The CIP
process gathers personal information from the Cardholder (name, physical address, date of birth and social
security number) and passes it through a third -party compliance database to verify Cardholder identity. The
process to conduct an identity check is for verification of the Cardholder only and does not pull from credit
data or impact a consumer's credit score. Cardholders who are not successfully verified through this
process will not be permitted to open a prepaid account with the Program.
