Other Terms
Fee Allocation
As outlined in the Loan Summary, the Weekly Payment Amount remains the same
throughout the Loan term; however, the allocation of fee and principal, respectively,
varies each week. Specifically, fee allocation will be greatest at the beginning of the
Loan term and will diminish over time. An Initial Estimated Payment Schedule and pay
off information may be requested by contacting
800-347-5626.
Early Payoff
You may pay the Loan back early, but to do so you must pay the entire outstanding
Loan Amount and the outstanding Total Loan Fee at the time of pre-payment.
If you are approved for another PayPal Business Loan or LoanBuilder A PayPal Service
loan before this Loan is paid in full, and the new loan is applied to satisfy the balance
on this Loan, then you may be eligible for a waiver of the outstanding Total Loan Fee
at that time on this Loan.
There is no pre-payment fee.
Returned Item Fee
$20
Certain Disclosures
This Loan is Business Purpose Only
The proceeds of the requested Loan may be used only for business purposes.
THE LOAN MAY NOT BE USED FOR PERSONAL, FAMILY OR HOUSEHOLD PURPOSES.
Borrower understands that Borrower’s agreement not to use the Loan proceeds for
personal, family or household purposes means that certain important duties imposed
upon entities making Loans for consumer/personal purposes, and certain important
rights conferred upon consumers, pursuant to federal or state law, will not apply to the
Loan or this Agreement.
Your LoanBuilder Loan is marketed and serviced by PayPal and Swift Financial, LLC, a

Bank Account Information
AUTHORIZATION TO CREDIT AND DEBIT BORROWER’S BANK ACCOUNT(S) (“PAYMENT

DocuSign Envelope ID: 60EC8813-17D3-4EFE-9494-81E5428D152E
3
subsequently supplemented, the “Bank Accounts”). The Bank Account marked “Deposit
Funds” below is the “Deposit Account”. If you do not select a Deposit Account, you
direct us to use the Bank Accounts in sequential order as listed below as the Deposit
Account. The Bank Account marked “Withdraw Payments” is the account from which
the Weekly Payment Amount will be deducted (“Payment Account”). If no Bank Account
is marked as the Payment Account, or if any payment cannot be initiated by us from
the Payment Account for any reason, you direct us to use the Bank Accounts in
sequential order as listed below as the Payment Account.
Weekly Payment Day
(*If Payment Day is less than a week from Loan funding, the first payment will be
postponed to the following week)

(a) Bank Account Verification. You promise that each Bank Account identified above
or at some later time is a Business bank account and that you have the power
and authority to (i) initiate payments from such Bank Account and (ii) authorize
us (including our service providers) to initiate payments from such Bank Account.
You promise that each Bank Account is a legitimate, open, and active bank
account used solely for business purposes and not for personal, family or
household purposes. You authorize us to verify any information you have provided
about any Bank Account and to correct any missing, erroneous or out-of-date
information.

you authorize and direct us (or our service provider) to initiate an EFT from the
Payment Account of the Weekly Payment Amount. For the amount due on the date
of the final scheduled payment, we may increase or decrease the amount of the EFT
to equal the total amount then outstanding under this Agreement. You authorize us
to initiate EFTs from the Payment Account for any fee or charge you owe, and, if an
Event of Default occurs, for any amounts due under this Agreement. We may assess
any fee or charge you owe us as a separate EFT. By way of clarification, for purposes
of this Payment Authorization, the term “EFT” includes automated clearing house
or “ACH” transactions. If you are a sole proprietor, then the provisions of this
Agreement that provide for automatic payments from your business bank account
to be the mandatory and sole method of payment do not apply to your Loan. Instead,
you can contact us to request to turn off automatic debit payments from your bank
account and make payments by phone each week. You can, of course, choose to
retain the convenience of automatic debit payments from your bank account for
payment of your Loan, but you are not required to do so.
(d) Error Correction. In the event we make an error in processing any payment, you
authorize us to initiate a corrected EFT from the Bank Accounts to correct the error.
(e) Fees for Dishonored Payments. You agree that we may submit up to two times any
EFT that is dishonored. Your bank may charge you fees for unsuccessful EFTs. You
agree that we will have no liability to you for such fees.
(f) No Termination. This Payment Authorization is irrevocable and you agree to keep
this Payment Authorization in force so long as this Agreement remains in place
and/or any amount remains outstanding under this Agreement.
(g) Compliance with Law and Network Rules. You acknowledge that the origination of
EFTs to and from the Bank Accounts must comply with U.S. law and applicable
network rules. Borrower agrees to be bound by the rules of NACHA.
(h) Alternative Payment Methods. If you know that we will be unable to process a
payment by an EFT under this Payment Authorization, you must (i) notify us, and (ii)
mail or deliver a check or money order to us for the Weekly Payment Amount at the
Notice Address, Attn: Payments or, if offered, pay the Weekly Payment Amount by
any pay-by-phone or online service that we may make available from time to time.

Weekly Payments. Until the Loan is paid-in-full, you must pay us on each Weekly Payment Day
the lesser of the Weekly Payment Amount or the outstanding balance you owe under this
Agreement. The Loan Summary sets forth the Number of Weekly Payments you must make
and the Weekly Payment Amount. The Weekly Payment Day you have selected is set forth in
the below Payment Authorization. If you do not select a Weekly Payment Day, you request us
to select a Weekly Payment Day on your behalf. If any Weekly Payment Day is a federal holiday,

Guaranty: Each Guarantor, jointly and severally if more than one, guarantees all of

obligation and will remain in full force and effect until all of Borrower’s financial obligations have

otherwise be entitled by law, and waives all defenses, legal or equitable, otherwise available to
the Guarantor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor expressly agrees
that we may amend this Agreement without such Guarantor’s consent, waive or decline to
enforce any right against Borrower, the Collateral (as defined in Section 11) and/or any other
Guarantor(s), release any other Guarantor(s) or enter into compromises with Borrower and/or

we may require, in form, amounts and coverage reasonably acceptable to us, and issued by a
company reasonably acceptable to us, naming us as loss payee. You must provide proof of
insurance to us upon request.
14.
Expenditures. If any action or proceeding is commenced that would materially affect our
interest in the Collateral or if you fail to comply with any provision of this Agreement or any
related documents, including but not limited to your failure to discharge or pay when due any
amounts you are required to discharge or pay under this Agreement or any related documents,
we may, on your behalf (but shall not be obligated to) take any action that we deem appropriate,
including but not limited to discharging or paying taxes, liens, security interests, encumbrances
and other claims, at any time levied or placed on the Collateral and paying all costs for insuring,
maintaining and preserving the Collateral. To the extent not prohibited by applicable law, all
such expenses, at our option, will be payable on demand or on the final Weekly Payment Day.
15.
Indemnity. You will defend, indemnify, and hold us, as well as PayPal, our service providers,
and each of their and our respective affiliates, successors, and assigns, harmless from any
damages, liabilities, costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or other harms arising out of
any violation of this Agreement and any laws, statutes, regulations, ordinances, contracts or
other obligations pertaining to the conduct of your business.
16.

individually who signs this Agreement on your behalf, in both your individual capacity and as an
owner of the Business or Guarantor, authorize us and our service providers to contact any third
party, including any credit reporting or database service, your current, prior or third-party card
processors, and your current and prior banks (including, without limitation, any bank where any
Bank Account has been or will be maintained), so that we may confirm or obtain any information
bearing on your creditworthiness or reputation, and obtain a credit report or background report
DocuSign Envelope ID: 60EC8813-17D3-4EFE-9494-81E5428D152E
13
on you and/or each individual who signs this Agreement on your behalf, together with whatever
other information we determine is necessary to review your application or to monitor, maintain
and collect on your account and for any other lawful purposes. Such information may include,
without limitation, your credit history or similar characteristics, credit card, debit card and other
payment card and instrument processing history (including, without limitation, your chargeback
history), employment and education history, social security verification, criminal and civil history,
Department of Motor Vehicle and other public agency records as well as any other information
bearing on your credit standing, credit capacity or character or that we otherwise deem pertinent

Arbitration Provision.
(a)
Unless you opt out of this Arbitration Provision, you and we (for purposes of this Section 28,
collectively the “parties” or individually, “party”) each agree that any party may elect to
resolve any Claims (as defined below) by submitting to binding arbitration before an
arbitrator selected by the Parties. The arbitration administrator “Administrator” shall be the
American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), 1633 Broadway, 10th Floor, New York, NY 10019,
www.adr.org, 800-778-7879 or JAMS, 620 Eighth Avenue, 34th Floor, New York, NY 10018
,
www.jamsadr.com, 800-352-5267 or, if AAA and JAMS cannot serve, another company
selected by you and us or by a court. For purposes of this Arbitration Provision, “we”, “us”,
and “our” mean Lender and its service providers, including PayPal, together with any
subsequent holder of this Agreement or participant in the Loan or the related receivable,
and each of our and their respective officers, directors, agents, representatives, contractors,
employees, affiliates, subsidiaries, successors and assigns; and “you” and “your” mean
DocuSign Envelope ID: 60EC8813-17D3-4EFE-9494-81E5428D152E
16
Borrower and each Guarantor, together with their successors. You agree that PayPal, as
our service provider, may file an arbitration in its own name for and on behalf of us. Filing,
administrative, hearing and/or other fees, including attorney’s fees and costs, will be borne
in accordance with the Administrator’s rules except as set forth in Section 6 above with
respect to an Event of Default. For a AAA proceeding, AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules
shall apply. For a JAMS proceeding, Streamlined Arbitration Rules shall apply. Hearings
shall ordinarily be held via teleconference, but if the arbitrator decides that an in-person
hearing is required, the arbitration will be held in in a location convenient to you or other
location as may be mutually agreed upon. NO CLAIM SUBMITTED TO ARBITRATION
WILL BE HEARD BY A JURY.
(b)
Claim” shall mean any claim, dispute or controversy between you, us, or our service
providers, that requires a legal decision to resolve, including disputes arising from actions
or omissions prior to the date of this Agreement. Claim has the broadest reasonable
meaning and includes disputes based upon contract, tort, fraud, constitution, statute,
regulation, ordinance, common law and equity. Claim includes any claim asserted by or
against any officer, director, or employee of the Business in his or her individual capacity.
By way of clarification, the arbitrator may not preside over any form of a representative or
class proceeding and shall have no authority to conduct any such class, private attorney
general or multi-party hearing. However, any dispute about the validity, enforceability,
coverage or scope of this arbitration provision or any part thereof shall be for the arbitrator
to decide.
(c)
Any court with jurisdiction may enter judgment upon the arbitrator’s award, which will be
final and binding except for any appeal right under the Federal Arbitration Act (the “FAA”).
(d)
The Loan involves interstate commerce and this Arbitration Provision shall be governed by
the FAA and not by any state law concerning arbitration. The arbitrator shall follow
applicable substantive law to the extent consistent with the FAA, applicable statutes of
limitation and privilege rules that would apply in a court proceeding, and shall be authorized
to award all remedies available in an individual lawsuit under applicable substantive law,
including, without limitation, compensatory, statutory, and punitive damages (which shall be
governed by the constitutional standards applicable in judicial proceedings), declaratory,
injunctive or other equitable relief, and attorneys’ fees and costs. Upon the timely request of
either party, the arbitrator shall write a brief explanation of the basis of the award. The
arbitrator will follow rules of procedure and evidence consistent with the FAA, this Arbitration
Provision and the Administrator’s rules.
(e)
This Arbitration Provision shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement, your
fulfillment or default of your obligations under this Agreement and/or your or our bankruptcy
or insolvency (to the extent permitted by applicable law). In the event of any conflict or
inconsistency between this Arbitration Provision and the Administrator’s rules or other parts
of this Agreement, this Arbitration Provision will govern. If any portion of this Arbitration
Provision, other than the Class Action Waiver, is deemed invalid or unenforceable, the
remaining portions shall nevertheless remain in force. If a determination is made with
respect to any class Claim that the Class Action Waiver is unenforceable, only this sentence
of the Arbitration Provision will remain in force and the remaining provisions shall be null
and void, provided that the determination concerning the Class Action Waiver shall be
subject to appeal.
(f)
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Borrower may opt-out of the

WITH CLAIMS BY OR AGAINST ANY OTHER PERSON.
