(iii) GPC is not a Buyer or a seller in connection with any Payment Transaction;

(iv) GPC will not be responsible for and does not control any aspect of the Products or the description of the Products; and

(v) GPC will not be responsible for and does not control if a Buyer will complete the purchase of or payment for Products. When a Buyer seeks to make a purchase with a Payment Account, the Service will process the Payment Transaction on behalf of Seller either:

(a) through the appropriate payment processing network, including without limitation credit card or debit card networks or

(b) to the Carrier for payment and collection through Carrier Billing as described below.

2.2 Permissible Payment Transactions. Seller may only use the Service to process a Payment Transaction for a Product that is purchased by a Buyer through a legitimate, bona fide sale of the Product. A Payment Transaction may not be submitted for capture through the Service until Seller has satisfied the requirements for charging and shipping as described in the Program Policies. The Service may not be used to process a Payment Transaction for Seller, or otherwise transfer money between a Buyer and Seller, that does not directly result from a Buyer's purchase of a Product. Seller may not use the Service to provide cash advances to Buyers or to facilitate the purchase by Buyers of cash equivalents (e.g., travelers checks, prepaid cards, money orders); provided however, that Seller may use the Service to facilitate the purchase by Buyers of a gift certificate or stored value card as permitted by the Policies. GPC may establish general practices and limits concerning use of the Service, including without limitation individual or aggregate transaction limits on the dollar amount or number of Payment Transactions during one or more specified time periods. Seller may not use the Service to process Payment Transactions in connection with an illegal transaction or the sale or exchange of any illegal or prohibited goods or services, including without limitation prohibited Products as set forth in the Content Policies.

2.3 Limitations on the Use of Service. Seller must comply with the Policies and any other limits concerning use of the Service as updated by GPC from time to time, including without limitation:

(i) the Integration Guidelines;

(ii) the Button and Acceptance Logo Guidelines and the Google Brand Feature Guidelines;

(iii) GPC requirements for data security and privacy, including the Google Privacy Policy and Google Wallet Privacy Notice;

(iv) operating rules and/or policies of the card associations or networks that are used to process the Payment Transactions attached hereto as Exhibit A (as may be updated from time to time); or

(v) Carrier requirements applicable to Carrier Billing. Seller's Payment Transactions may be protected pursuant to the chargeback resolution policies ("Chargeback Resolution Policy") and payment guarantee policy ("Payment Guarantee Policy") as each is described in the Program Policies. GPC has the right:

(i) to change, suspend or discontinue the Service, in whole or in part, as necessary to perform maintenance or updates to the Service and

(ii) to impose limits on certain features or restrict access to parts or all of the Service without notice and without liability. GPC may decline to process any Payment Transaction in connection with, among other reasons, fraud prevention activities, applicable law, or GPC policies.

2.4 Prohibited Actions. Unless expressly permitted in writing by GPC, Seller may not:

(a) establish a minimum or maximum Purchase Amount as a condition for Buyer's use of the Service to pay for a Product;

(b) require Buyer to provide Seller with the account numbers of any credit card, debit card, Carrier Billing Account or other payment instrument;

(c) add any Service use surcharge to a Payment Transaction;

(d) separately process as a Payment Transaction the amount of any tax applicable to a purchase of a Product;

(e) submit to the Service a Payment Transaction that was previously returned as a chargeback; or

(f) permit the use of the Service for payment of any debt owed to Seller by Buyer.

2.5 Payment Transaction Authorization. Seller acknowledges that the receipt of an authorization for a Payment Transaction indicates only that, as of the date of the authorization, the underlying Payment Account has sufficient credit with the card issuer or Carrier for the amount of the Purchase Amount. Seller acknowledges that the authorization is not a confirmation of the Buyer's identity; nor is an authorization a guarantee by GPC that the transaction will not be subject to a chargeback or other reversal.

2.6 Additional Carrier Billing Terms. When a Buyer makes a Payment Transaction using Carrier Billing, GPC, as processor for the Seller, will submit charges to the Carrier for payment and processing through the Buyers Carrier Billing Account. A reversal, refund, or adjustment of that Payment Transaction also may be submitted by GPC, as processor for the Seller, to the Carrier for processing through the Buyers Carrier Billing Account. GPC is not obligated to Seller or any other person to make settlement for Buyers Payment Transaction (or reversals, refunds or adjustments thereof) in the event that the Carrier is unable or unwilling for any reason to collect the funds from the Carrier Billing Account or otherwise from the Buyer (for payment of a Payment Transaction) or to credit the Carrier Billing Account or otherwise credit the Buyer (for a reversal, refund or adjustment of a Payment Transaction). In the event GPC provides any settlement funds to the Seller pending payment from the Carrier, GPC reserves the right to chargeback or reclaim the funds from the Seller in the event the Carrier does not complete the Payment Transaction processing to the Buyers Carrier Billing Account or otherwise does not obtain payment from the Buyer. GPC may limit the types of Sellers that may use Carrier Billing and the types of products that may be purchased with Carrier Billing.

2.7 Beta Features. From time to time, GPC may make Beta Features available to Seller as part of the Service, which are provided "as is." Seller's use of Beta Features is solely at Seller's own risk. GPC reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to include or cease providing Beta Features as part of the Service at any time.

SECTION 3. SERVICE IMPLEMENTATION

3.1 Implementation of Service. Seller agrees not to use the Service through websites other than the Seller Websites. GPC at all times reserves approval authority as to the implementation of the Service on each Seller Website, and GPC may upon notice suspend Seller's use of the Service until Seller corrects implementation issues as reasonably specified by GPC.

3.2 Implementation Setup. Seller agrees to provide current, complete and accurate registration information for the Service and to maintain and promptly update the information. Seller will set up and maintain a Settlement Account that is capable of receiving funds through electronic funds transfer. Seller authorizes GPC to confirm that the Settlement Account is in good standing with the financial institution, including by submitting a request for a payment authorization and/or a low monetary credit to the Settlement Account. Seller authorizes GPC to reconfirm the Settlement Account any time the account information is changed. Seller also authorizes GPC to obtain from time to time a credit report and to otherwise make credit or other background inquiries on Seller as GPC deems appropriate to assess Seller's eligibility for continued use of the Service. GPC may require Seller to provide additional information from time to time as a condition of Seller's continued use of the Service in connection with a credit or other background inquiry.

3.3 Implementation Updates. Seller will provide GPC with sixty (60) days advance notice of any change to a Seller Website or the code or technology used to implement the Service on a Seller Website that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect Seller's implementation of the Service; provided that giving notice will not relieve Seller of its obligations under this Agreement. If GPC updates the technical or implementation specifications for the Service, Seller will implement the updates as soon as reasonably practical, but no later than ninety (90) days of receiving notice of the updates. If GPC updates its look and feel or branding specifications, Seller will implement the updates as soon as reasonably practical, but no later than thirty (30) days of receiving notice of the updates.

3.4 Support. Prior to making any support request to GPC, Seller will first use reasonable efforts to resolve the problem on its own without any escalation to GPC. Thereafter, Seller may submit a written request for technical support via the methods specified by GPC. Any support that Seller provides to Buyers will be at Seller's own expense. Seller agrees that any telephone communications between Seller and GPC related to the support or operation of the Service may be recorded by GPC for quality assurance and training purposes.

(i) GPC is holding funds that are due to Seller arising from a Payment Transaction processed through the Service or otherwise,

4.3 No Endorsement. Seller acknowledges that GPC does not endorse the Seller Website, any of the information or other content appearing on the Seller Website or provided by Seller to GPC ("Seller Content"), or any of the Products.

While this Agreement remains in effect, Seller agrees not to challenge or assist others to challenge the GPC Brand Features (except to protect Seller's rights to its own Brand Features) and not to register any Brand Features or domain names that are confusingly similar to those of GPC.

SECTION 6. SERVICE FEES AND PAYMENT TERMS

6.1 Service Fees. Subject to Section 12, the transaction processing and other fees for the Service will be as set forth on the Fee Schedule (the "Service Fees"). GPC reserves the right to earn interest and/or other compensation from its service provider banks or others arising from the processing of Payment Transactions that have not settled to Seller.

6.2 Payment Terms. Seller will conduct transactions on the Service, and the Service will make payments to the Sellers Settlement Account, in the local currency of the Seller's registration country. GPC will hold amounts due and payable to Seller (subject to adjustments as described in Section 6.3) separate from GPC's general corporate funds and will not use the amounts for GPC's corporate operating expenses. Subject to Section 12, unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by the parties, GPC will use commercially reasonable efforts to electronically transfer funds to Seller's Settlement Account before the end of the second business day (excluding bank holidays) after the day that Payment Transactions are submitted for capture by Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, GPC will not be obligated to settle funds to Seller

(i) for any Payment Transaction for which GPC has not received full settlement in final available funds if Seller does not capture funds during an authorization hold period indicated in the Program Policies or

(ii) if Seller's earned balance at the time of disbursement or transfer is less than one dollar.

6.3 Payment Adjustments. Seller acknowledges that Buyers may retain a chargeback right pursuant to card association and network rules and/or their agreement with the holder of the Payment Account (including a Carrier), and GPC will have the right (but not the obligation) to pass chargebacks to Seller if the particular transactions are not covered by the Payment Guarantee Policy. As to particular Payment Transactions, GPC may withhold payments or reverse previous payments if:

(i) a Buyer makes a claim to GPC for a refund or other reversal or

(ii) GPC believes that the Payment Transactions are invalid, involve misconduct or fraud (such as fraudulent use of a payment instrument), or otherwise violate applicable law, this Agreement, or the Policies.Seller agrees to cooperate with GPC and to provide any information that may be reasonably requested by GPC in its investigation of any of the foregoing circumstances.

GPC may withhold payment amounts to Seller in the event GPC requires additional informational from Seller to complete a credit or other background inquiry pursuant to Section 3.2.

GPC may offset any payment obligation that GPC may have to Seller under this Agreement against:

(i) Service Fees owed by Seller,

(ii) amounts overpaid to Seller due to a later reversal, refund, chargeback or other adjustment to prior Payment Transactions, and

(iii) any other amounts owed by Seller to GPC under this Agreement or any other agreement. In the event that Seller incurs a negative balance (i.e. due to negative adjustments exceeding the settlement proceeds for a particular period), GPC may debit the Settlement Account for the amount of the negative balance. Furthermore, GPC may choose to invoice Seller for any amounts owed by Seller under this Agreement which will be immediately due and payable.

6.4 Reserve. GPC reserves the right to withhold a portion of the proceeds that are payable to Seller with respect to the processing of Payment Transactions (a "Reserve") to help ensure that sufficient funds are available to GPC in the event of chargebacks, reversals and other liabilities related to Seller's use of the Service. Circumstances where GPC may impose a Reserve include, but are not limited to:

(a) adverse changes in Seller's financial condition or its payment record with creditors;

(b) excessive rate of chargebacks, reversals, or Buyer support issues; or

(c) significant changes in the nature of Seller's business or product lines. GPC is not responsible for any losses sustained by Seller as a result of the imposition of a Reserve.

6.5 Refunds and Adjustments. Seller will disclose its return/cancellation policy on the Seller Website. If Seller allows returns, cancellations or price adjustments in connection with a Payment Transaction, Seller will initiate a credit to the Buyer using the refund function of the Service within three (3) days of receiving the Buyer's request. Refunds cannot exceed the total amount of the Payment Transaction. Seller agrees not to accept cash or any other consideration from a Buyer in exchange for issuing a refund to a Buyer. Seller agrees not to give cash refunds to a Buyer in connection with a Product paid for with the Service unless required by law. If Seller provides a refund through a means other than through the Service, Seller remains responsible if the Payment Transaction results in a chargeback through the Service. Seller acknowledges that even if Seller's return/cancellation policy prohibits returns or cancellations, Seller may still receive chargebacks relating to the transactions. GPC may reject or delay a refund request from Seller through the Service if GPC is unable to obtain sufficient funds from Seller to fund the refund.

6.6 Taxes and Other Charges. Seller will pay any applicable taxes, including sales, use, personal property, value-added, excise, customs fees, import duties or stamp duties or other taxes and duties imposed by governmental entities of whatever kind and imposed with respect to the transactions under this Agreement, including penalties and interest, but specifically excluding taxes based upon GPC's net income. For purposes of clarification, GPC is not responsible for, and is not the entity collecting sales or income or other taxes with respect to Payment Transactions. When GPC has the legal obligation to collect any applicable taxes, the appropriate amount will be invoiced to and paid by Seller net thirty (30) days from the date of invoice or other notification. Seller will promptly provide GPC with documentation as may be required by the applicable governmental entity in order for GPC to process payments hereunder (including, without limitation, a valid certificate of Seller's exemption from obligation to pay taxes as authorized by the appropriate governmental entity), and GPC may withhold any payments required to be made hereunder until Seller has provided the documentation. Seller acknowledges that, unless Seller provides to GPC the required information, including a completed IRS Form W-8BEN, showing that Seller is exempt, beginning in 2011 GPC will report to the Internal Revenue Service the gross annual sales made by Seller through GPC in any calendar year where Seller both

(i) receives aggregate payments exceeding $20,000, and

(ii) has more than 200 transactions. Seller will promptly provide GPC with original or certified copies of all tax payments or other sufficient evidence of tax payments at the time the payments are made by Seller pursuant to the Agreement.

Seller agrees that Seller is responsible for any act and/or omission of any Authorized Personnel in breach of this paragraph.

(i) requested protection from the court or other legal or governmental authority requiring the Process and the request has been denied, or

(ii) consented in writing to the production or disclosure of the GPC Confidential Information in response to the Process.

GPC will have the right, at its sole and absolute discretion, to change, modify, or amend any portion of this Agreement at any time by posting notification on a Google Website or otherwise communicating the notification to Seller. The changes will become effective, and will be deemed accepted by Seller, after the initial posting by GPC or the sending by GPC of notification to Seller and will apply on a going-forward basis with respect to Payment Transactions initiated after the posting or sending date. In the event that Seller does not agree with the modification, Seller must terminate its use of the Service, which will be Seller's sole and exclusive remedy.

This Agreement is not intended and will not be construed to create any rights or remedies in any parties other than Seller and GPC and no other person may assert any rights as a third party beneficiary; provided, that Google will be a third party beneficiary; provided, further that the GPC Indemnified Parties will be a third party beneficiary of the Seller indemnity in Section 9; provided, further that Paymentech, L.P will be a third party beneficiary of the agreement in Exhibit A and the Seller indemnity in Section 9.

SECTION 12. SPECIAL TERMS FOR GOOGLE PLAY AND OTHER GOOGLE MARKETPLACES AND GOOGLE IN-APP PAYMENTS

This Section 12 only applies to Sellers that use the Service on Google Play or one or more other Google marketplaces (each a "Google Marketplace"), except that Section 12.3 will also apply to Sellers that use the Service to process in-application payments ("Google In-App-Payments").

12.1 Google Play and other Google Marketplaces. Notwithstanding the first sentence of Section 3.1, Seller may use the Service to process transactions on a Google Marketplace. To use the Service on a Google Marketplace, a Seller must separately agree to the terms of service applicable to such Google Marketplace (the "Google Marketplace TOS") and have the Seller's Service account linked to the Seller's account for that Google Marketplace. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the applicable Google Marketplace TOS, the terms of the applicable Google Marketplace TOS will control.

12.2 Service Fees; Payment Guarantee Policy. GPC will not charge Seller the Service Fees described in Section 6.1 for transactions conducted through a Google Marketplace, and Seller will instead pay the fees specified in the applicable Google Marketplace TOS. Any fee discounts or fee waivers that are being offered by GPC for the Service do not apply to the fees specified in the applicable Google Marketplace TOS. The Payment Guarantee Policy does not apply to transactions conducted through a Google Marketplace.

12.3 Payment Terms; Monthly Payment Schedule. Notwithstanding the payment schedule described in Section 6.2, if the Sellers Service account is linked to any Google Marketplace pursuant to this Section 12,or if the Seller uses the Service to process Google In-App Payments, GPC will use commercially reasonable efforts to electronically transfer funds for Payment Transactions submitted for capture by Seller within a calendar month to Seller's Settlement Account before close of business on the 15th day of the following calendar month. The monthly payment schedule described in the foregoing sentence will apply to all of Sellers Payment Transactions, whether or not they are conducted through a Google Marketplace or for Google In-App Payments. At GPCs option, and with no prior notice to Seller, funds may be transferred to Sellers Settlement Account more frequently than monthly.

12.4. Seller agrees to pay all fees, including any applicable currency conversion fees, associated with the conversion of funds and the processing of the EFT to the Settlement Account. Seller acknowledges and agrees that Seller bears all risk of loss arising from any changes in the currency exchange rates between the time Payment Transactions are processed and the time that settlement funds are sent by EFT to the Settlement Account. Banks that process the EFT to the Settlement Account also may impose fees and charges related to processing of the EFT and related currency conversion, and the Seller is solely responsible for all such fees and charges.

12.5 Buyer Currency. A Google Marketplace may permit Seller to list purchase prices for Seller's Products, and a Buyer to purchase Seller's Products, in a currency different from that of the Seller's Settlement Account ("Buyer Currency Purchase Transaction"). For any Buyer Currency Purchase Transaction, Seller will be paid by GPC in the currency of Seller's Settlement Account, based on an exchange rate that will be applied to the purchase amount (denominated in Buyer Currency) at the time the Payment Transaction is submitted to GPC for processing by Seller. The exchange rate will be determined by a financial institution utilized by GPC to calculate exchange rates, and may be adjusted based on market conditions without notice to Seller. If a Buyer Currency Purchase Transaction is subsequently subject to refund, reversal, chargeback or other adjustment, GPC will apply the same exchange rate and currency that applied to the original Buyer Currency Purchase Transaction in calculating the obligation of the Seller for the refund, reversal, chargeback or other adjustment. GPC reserves the right to impose fees on this currency conversion.

Exhibit A

Three Party Agreement between Seller, GPC, and Paymentech, L.P.

This Exhibit A applies to Seller if Seller uses the Service to engage in aggregate payment card transaction amounts of five thousand dollars ($5,000) or more in gross merchandise volume (GMV) for three consecutive months. This Exhibit contains terms required by the groups of Card issuer banks or debit networks that facilitate the use of payment cards ("Associations"). These terms form a three-party agreement between Seller, GPC, and Paymentech, L.P. ("Paymentech"), the service provider with which GPC has entered into a separate agreement to assist GPC in processing Seller's Payment Transactions involving payment cards.

Definitions

Seller agrees to comply with all Association Rules, as may be applicable and in effect from time to time. Seller understands that GPC or Paymentech may be required to modify this Exhibit A in order to comply with requirements imposed by the Association Rules.

Association Rules are the bylaws, rules, and regulations, as they exist from time to time, of the Associations.

Card is both the plastic card or other evidence of the account and the account number, issued by a Card issuer or a debit network to the Cardholder, either of which are accepted for the purpose of paying Seller, and which will be processed under this Seller Payment Terms of Service.

Cardholder is the person to whom the Card is issued and who is entitled to use the Card.

Retrieval Request is a request for information by a Cardholder or Card issuer relating to a claim or complaint concerning a Card sale Seller has made.

Sales Data is the evidence and/or electronic record of a Payment Transaction representing payment by use of a Card or of a refund/credit to a Cardholder.

Seller Acceptance of Cards

Seller agrees to comply with all Association Rules, as may be applicable and in effect from time to time. Seller understands that GPC or Paymentech may be required to modify this Exhibit A in order to comply with requirements imposed by the Association Rules.

The Association Rules require that each Sales Data Seller tenders to GPC for processing comply with the following conditions: (1) The Sales Data represents payment or refund of payment, for the bona fide sale or lease of the goods, services or both, which Seller has provided in the ordinary course of its business; (2) The Sales Data does not involve any element of credit for any purpose other than payment for a current transaction (including payment of a previously-dishonored check) and, except in the case of approved installment or pre-payment plans, the goods have been shipped or services actually rendered to the Cardholder; (3) To Seller's knowledge, the Sales Data is free from any material alteration not authorized by the Cardholder; and (4) Seller has not advanced any cash to the Cardholder in connection with the Card transaction, nor has Seller accepted payment for effecting credits to a Cardholder's account.

Refunds and Adjustments

The Card Associations require Seller to maintain a fair policy with regard to the return/cancellation of merchandise or services and adjustment of Card sales. Seller must also disclose its return/cancellation policy to Seller's customers.

If Seller allows a price adjustment, return of merchandise or cancellation of services in connection with a Card sale, Seller must prepare and deliver to GPC Sales Data reflecting the refund or adjustment within 3 days of receiving the customer's request for the refund/adjustment.

The amount of the refund/adjustment cannot exceed the amount shown as the total on the original Sales Data except by the exact amount required to reimburse the Cardholder for postage that the Cardholder paid to return merchandise. Seller is not allowed to accept cash or any other payment or consideration from a customer in return for preparing a refund to be deposited to the Cardholder's account nor to give cash refunds to a Cardholder in connection with a Card sale, unless required by law.

If Seller's refund policy prohibits returns under certain circumstances, Seller may still receive a chargeback relating to the sales pursuant to the Association rules.

Retrieval Requests

The Associations require Seller to store original documentation of each transaction for at least six months from the date of the respective transaction, and to retain copies of all the data for at least 18 months from the date of the respective transaction. The Associations do not allow Seller to charge a fee for the creation or storage of the copies.

Data Security and Privacy

Seller must exercise reasonable care to prevent disclosure of Card information, other than to Seller's agents and contractors for the purpose of assisting Seller in completing a Card transaction, or to the applicable Association, or as specifically required by law. Association Rules require Seller to comply with all security standards and guidelines that may be published from time to time by Visa, MasterCard or any other Association, including, without limitation, the Visa U.S.A. Cardholder Information Security Program (collectively, the "Security Guidelines"). Seller understands and agrees that failure to comply with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard requirements and other Security Guidelines may result in fines and/or penalties being levied against Seller or against GPC or Paymentech because of Seller's actions by the Associations. If this occurs Seller agrees to reimburse GPC or Paymentech immediately for any fine or penalty imposed due to violation of the Security Guidelines.

The Association Rules provide that Cardholder information and transaction data is owned by the Associations, the Card issuer and the Cardholder.
