DBA OpenEdge, to Amend the Card Services Terms & Conditions For Government Entities, Incorporated Within the Prior Agreement Entered into with Global Payments Direct, Inc. DBA Total System Services Inc. (also known as TSYS Merchant Solutions) for Debit/Credit Card Merchant Payment Processing Services and Support and Maintenance in the Amount not to Exceed $1,898,400, which Includes a General Contingency of $242,400 RECOMMENDED ACTION Authorize the City Manager to execute a first amendment to agreement with Global Payments Direct, Inc. DBA OpenEdge/TSYS Merchant Solutions for debit/credit card payment processing services, including support and maintenance in an amount not to exceed $1,898,400; which includes a general contingency of $242,400 over the maximum seven-year life of the agreement. The first amendment to agreement includes a base term commencing from December 20, 2022 and expiring December 31, 2025, with provision for two renewal options of three years, and one year, respectively ending December 31, 2029. DISCUSSION Global Payments Direct, Inc. ("Global Payments") is a leading provider of merchant processing payment technology and software solutions. In September 2019, Global Integrated Payments, Total System Services Inc. ("TSYS" Merchant Solutions, LLC) combined to form the overarching parent company Global Payments. On December 6, 2022, as part of the city-wide Europay, MasterCard, and Visa ("EMV") Chip & PIN cashiering software and hardware upgrade to improve the security of debit/credit payment transactions for Santa Ana residents, City Council approved a renewal agreement with TSYS Merchant Solutions, LLC, DBA Global Payments Direct, Inc. Global Payments will be presenting MasterCard and Visa payment transactions on behalf of the City for all walk-in credit card payments made at City facilities, including, but not limited to, the following: City Hall Cashiering Counters, Police Department Traffic and Records Divisions, and the Santa Ana Zoo and will be providing an "e-Commerce Gateway Transaction Integration". Part of the planned upgrade of the City's cashiering software and hardware systems also includes providing more payment options and First Amendment to Agreement with OpenEdge, DBA Global Payments December 20, 2022 Page 2 fewer restrictions for other City agencies who are currently undergoing information system enhancements and upgrades, such as the Parks, Recreation and Community Services Agency's ("PRCSA") new zoo ticketing system and reservation management system. Subsequent to this City Council meeting, staff will be recommending the approval of both a renewal agreement and an accompanying support and maintenance agreement with System Innovators, a division of N. Harris Computer, for related EMV Chip & PIN credit card hardware purchases and Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard ("PCI DSS") revenue management and cashiering software upgrades. Various City agencies currently use both TSYS and iNovah (System Innovators' revenue management and cashiering software/hardware), to process payments and the receipt of City revenues. A component of this comprehensive upgrade to the City's cashiering and payment system includes contingency options for additional City information systems to integrate into both Global Payments merchant processing services (TSYS & OpenEdge) as well as iNovah. The City's iNovah revenue and management and cashiering software is then scheduled to be integrated into PRCSA's new zoo ticketing system and existing parks and recreation reservation management system, together with the Planning & Building Agency's new land management system, and Finance & Management Services Agency's up -coming new business license software/platform (as an upgrade to the existing legacy system's iNovah integration). OpenEdge is the only common merchant processor for in -person payment transactions for PRCSA's reservation management system and the Santa Ana Zoo's new ticketing system. The City's Treasury & Customer Service Division ("Treasury") of the Finance & Management Services Agency, whose responsible for maintaining all monetary transactions related to City services, is aiming to streamline all in -person debit/credit payment transactions. Fortunately, Global Payments (aka OpenEdge/TSYS) not only has unique institutional knowledge of the City's payment processing systems, but their amalgamation with OpenEdge opens another merchant processing payment method to be utilized by PRCSA and other City agencies in the future if necessary. Global Payments' TSYS merchant payment processing services are already integrated into various City payment systems, the cost to implement an equivalent third -party merchant payment processing service is unknown, but would require new software and substantial additional integration expenses. In addition to merchant payment processing services for the City's walk-in cashiering stations, there are other related critical payment processing agreements such as the City's online cloud -based electronic billing and payment presentation/bill print services, 24-7/365 walk-up payment kiosk services, and over -the -phone interactive voice response and payment services. Based on the synchronization of all of these payment - processing services, the City will achieve full PCI-DSS compliance, thereby transferring future credit card fraud liability from the City to the payment card providers. First Amendment to Agreement with OpenEdge, DBA Global Payments December 20, 2022 Page 3 Furthermore, renewal agreements for the City's integrated Interactive Voice Response ("IVR") contract and data processing, printing and mailing, and e-business services contracts have been constructed to be co -extensive with one another. Therefore, staff recommends the approval of a first amendment to agreement with Global Payments (TSYS/OpenEdge) to assure annual merchant payment processing services for the City's PRCSA reservation management system and the Zoo's new ticketing system. By approving this first amendment to agreement with Global Payments, City Council will also be harmonizing agreements with other critical payment processing contracts.

MARKETING. Merchant shall adequately display the card issuer service marks and promotional materials supplied by Global Direct.

Fees and charges payable by Merchant for all products, services and applications, whether provided by Global Direct, a third party through Global Direct, or directly by a third party with Global Direct collecting monies with respect thereto (e.g., a POS Vendor Fee), shall be as set forth in the Merchant Application (exclusive of taxes, duties and shipping and handling charges) and in Section 39 of these Card Services Terms & Conditions. With respect to POS Vendor Fees, Global Direct does not control and is not responsible for the POS Vendor Fees charged to Merchant, and the pricing for any such fees depends on Merchant's agreement with such third party. Merchant shall at all times maintain one or more commercial checking accounts (the "Accounts") with Member or with another financial institution of Merchant's choice acceptable to Member and Global Direct that belongs to the Automated Clearing House ("ACH") network and which can accept ACH transactions.

In the event that any of the foregoing warranties or representations is breached, the affected sales slips or other indebtedness may be refused, or prior acceptance revoked and charged back to the Merchant. Furthermore, if Merchant submits for purchase hereunder a sales transaction that is not the result of a sale of Merchant's goods or services offered to the general public or if Merchant submits any sales transactions for purchase hereunder which represents an unreasonable sales transaction to any principal, partner, or proprietor, of Merchant, such sales transaction may be refused or charged back. 10.2. Merchant must notify Global Direct if Merchant elects to use the terminal service of American Express, Novus, or any other third -party provider. If Merchant elects to use a third -party terminal provider, that provider becomes Merchant's agent for the delivery of card transactions to Global Direct via the applicable card -processing network. Global Direct and Member shall have no responsibility for or liability in connection with any hardware, software or services Merchant receives from a third party agent, even if Global Direct collects monies with respect to such hardware, software or services. Neither Global Direct nor Member makes any representation or warranty with respect to such agent's access to or ability to integrate with the products, services, and systems of Global Direct and any such access or ability may terminate at any time and Global Direct shall have no obligation to advise Merchant of such termination. Merchant agrees to assume full responsibility and liability for any failure of such agent to comply with the Card Association Rules, including without limitation any violation, which results in a chargeback to the Merchant. Global Direct and Member have no responsibility for any card transactions until it receives data for the card transaction in the format required by Global Direct. Merchant also agrees that the obligation hereunder to reimburse the Merchant for the value of the card transactions captured by an agent is limited to the value of the transactions (less applicable fees) received by the card -processing network from the agent. 10.3. Neither Member, nor Global Direct, nor any Supplier makes any representations or warranties, express or implied, including without limitation any warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose with respect to any terminal, any equipment, software or services leased, sold, or otherwise furnished hereunder.

Under no circumstances shall Global Direct, ISO, or Member be liable for any settlement amounts pertaining to Switched Transactions; Merchant's recourse therefore shall be to the applicable card issuer. Member shall not be responsible or liable to Merchant for any action taken by Member (or the results thereof) that is authorized by this Agreement. 12.4. It is agreed that in no event will Global Direct, ISO, or Member be liable for any claim, loss, billing error, imposition of any allegedly improper fee(s), damage or expense arising out of or relating in any way to this Card Services Agreement which is not reported in writing to Global Direct by Merchant within 60 days of such failure to perform, or, in the event of a billing error or the imposition of any allegedly improper fee(s), within 90 days of the date of the invoice or applicable statement. Merchant expressly waives any such claim that is not brought within the time periods stated herein. 12.5.

Upon reasonable request, Global Direct shall deliver a certificate of insurance reflecting its then -current policy coverage and carriers. 13. TERM AND TERMINATION. 13.1. This Card Services Agreement shall remain in full force and effect for an initial term of one year from the Effective Date (the "Initial Term"); provided, however, that if Merchant is receiving these Terms and Conditions as an amendment to an existing Card Services Agreement, the amendment shall not affect the then -existing term. The Card Services Agreement will automatically renew for additional one-year periods ("Renewal Term" or "Renewal Terms", and together with the Initial Term, the "Term") unless Merchant gives 30 days' advance written notice of termination prior to the end of the then -current term. This Card Services Agreement is expressly made subject to the limitations of the Merchant's state constitution. Nothing herein shall constitute, nor be deemed to constitute, the creation of a debt or multiyear fiscal obligation or an obligation of future appropriations by Merchant, contrary to the any constitutional, statutory or charter debt limitation. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Card Services Agreement, with respect to any financial obligation of Merchant which may arise under this Card Services Agreement in any fiscal year, if the budget DocuSign Envelope ID: 69E4955D-23F3-4407-84A7-E75FDC837DB9 or other means of appropriations for any such year fails to provide funds in sufficient amounts to discharge such obligation, such failure shall not constitute a default or breach of this Card Services Agreement, including any sub -agreement, attachment, schedule, or exhibit thereto, by the Merchant. 13.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Global Direct or Member may terminate or suspend performance of this Card Services Agreement or any portion thereof upon written notice to Merchant. Furthermore, Global Direct may terminate this Card Services Agreement at any time without notice upon Merchant's default in performing under any provision of this Card Services Agreement; upon an unauthorized conversion of all or any part of Merchant's activity to mail order, telephone order, Internet order, or to any activity where the card is not physically present and swiped through the Merchant's terminal or other card reader; upon any failure to follow the Card Acceptance Guide or any Card Association Rules, upon any misrepresentation by Merchant; upon commencement of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings by or against the Merchant; upon a material change in the Merchant's average ticket or volume as stated in the Merchant Application; where the rules or regulations of any card association require that Member and/or Global Direct terminate and/or suspend this Card Services Agreement; or in the event Global Direct or Member reasonably deems itself insecure (including, without limitation, credit, operational, reputational, financial, technological, security and/or fraud risk or exposure) in continuing this Card Services Agreement. 13.3. In addition, a termination by Global Direct shall serve as a termination of the entire Card Services Agreement, including with regard to any ACH Transaction Services provided hereunder. In the event that Global Direct and Member breach the terms and conditions hereof, the Merchant may, at its option, give written notice to Global Direct and Member of its intention to terminate this Card Services Agreement unless such breach is remedied within 30 days of such notice. Failure to remedy such a breach shall make this Card Services Agreement terminable, at the option of the Merchant, at the end of such 30-day period unless notification is withdrawn. 13.4. Any Merchant deposit of sales or credit slips that is accepted by Global Direct and Member or by a designated depository after the effective date of termination will be returned to Merchant and will not be credited (or debited) to Merchant's Account(s). If the deposit has already been posted to Merchant's Account(s), said posting will be reversed and the deposit returned to Merchant. Termination of this Card Services Agreement shall not affect Merchant's obligations which have accrued prior to termination or which relate to any indebtedness purchased hereunder prior to termination, including but not limited to chargebacks or liability assessments imposed, received, or processed after termination. In the event of termination, all equipment leased from, and software provided by, Global Direct including but not limited to imprinters, terminals, and printers; all supplies; Card Acceptance Guides; and operating instructions must be returned immediately to Global Direct at Merchant's expense. 14. RETURNED ITEMS/CHARGEBACKS. If a cardholder disputes any transaction, if a transaction is charged back for any reason by a cardholder or the card issuing institution, or if Global Direct or Member has any reason to believe an indebtedness previously purchased is questionable, not genuine, or is otherwise unacceptable, the amount of such indebtedness may be charged back and deducted from any payment due to Merchant or may be charged against any of Merchant's Accounts or the Reserve Account (as defined below). Merchant acknowledges and agrees that it is bound by the DocuSign Envelope ID: 69E4955D-23F3-4407-84A7-E75FDC837DB9 Card Association Rules with respect to any chargeback. Merchant further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for providing Global Direct and Member with any available information to re -present a chargeback and that, regardless of any information it provides or does not provide Global Direct and Member in connection with a chargeback, or any other reason, Merchant shall be solely responsible for the liability related to such chargeback. If any such amount is uncollectible through withholding from any payments due hereunder or through charging Merchant's accounts or the Reserve Account, Merchant shall, upon demand by Global Direct, pay Global Direct the full amount of the chargeback. Merchant understands that obtaining an authorization for any sale shall not constitute a guarantee of payment, and such sales slips can be returned or charged back to Merchant like any other item hereunder. 15. RESERVE ACCOUNT; HOLDBACK RIGHTS. 15.1. At any time, Global Direct and Member may, at their option, establish a reserve account to secure the performance of Merchant's obligations under this Card Services Agreement to such party ("Reserve Account"). The Reserve Account may be funded, at Global Direct's sole discretion, through any or all of the following: (a) direct payment by Merchant —at the request of Global Direct or Member, Merchant will deposit funds in the Reserve Account; or (b) the proceeds of indebtedness presented for purchase. Merchant hereby grants Member a security interest in all accounts referenced in section 5 or any other accounts, including certificates of deposits, maintained by Merchant with any designated depository or other financial institution and authorizes Global Direct (to the extent authorized by Member) or Member to make such withdrawals at such times and in such amounts as it may deem necessary hereunder. Merchant hereby instruct said financial institutions to honor any requests made by Global Direct and Member under the terms of this provision. To the extent not prohibited under applicable law, Merchant will hold harmless the financial institutions and indemnify them for any claims or losses they may suffer as a result of honoring withdrawal requests from Global Direct and Member. 15.2. Merchant hereby agrees that Global Direct and Member may deduct from this Reserve Account any amount owed to such party in accordance with this Card Services Agreement. Any funds in the Reserve Account may be held until the later of (a) the expiration of any potentially applicable chargeback rights in respect of purchased indebtedness under the Card Association Rules or (b) the period necessary to secure the performance of Merchant's obligations under this Card Services Agreement, which holding period may extend beyond termination of this Card Services Agreement. Merchant shall have no ownership interest or property rights in the Reserve Account or the funds therein, will not receive any interest on funds being held in a Reserve Account, and has no right to access the funds being held in the Reserve Account or otherwise transfer, pledge or use these funds for its own purposes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon termination of this Card Services Agreement, Global Direct and Member may maintain the sum of at least five percent of gross sales for the 90-day period prior to termination to be held in a Reserve Account in accordance with the terms of this Card Services Agreement. Global Direct may, at its discretion upon termination of this Card Services Agreement, require that the Merchant maintain more than five percent of gross sales for the 90-day period prior to termination in a Reserve Account. 15.3. In addition to any of the other rights granted to Global Direct and Member hereunder, in the event that Global Direct and/or Member, at any time during the term of this Card Services Agreement, determine in its or their commercially reasonable discretion that it may be prudent or necessary to do so as a result of any unusual, suspicious, or risk -exposing activity (including, without limitation, money laundering, invalid sales transactions, counterfeit transactions, altered or duplicate transactions, activity related to a suspected data compromise event or other breach of security standards, or excessive chargebacks), then DocuSign Envelope ID: 69E4955D-23F3-4407-84A7-E75FDC837DB9 Member or Global Direct on behalf of Member may, without notice, hold funds otherwise payable to Merchant for such period as Global Direct and/or Member, in its or their commercially reasonable discretion, deem necessary, to provide security against liability for such activity, plus other costs or liabilities reasonably anticipated to be due to Global Direct and/or Member related to the same. To the extent (i) the investigation conducted by Global Direct and/or Member with respect to the unusual, suspicious, or risk -exposing activity determines that such activity is reasonably likely to result in amounts being due from you to Global Direct and/or Member, and (ii) Global Direct and/or Member require the establishment, replenishment, or increase of a Reserve Account in connection therewith, then the funds held may be used to fund such Reserve Account. 16. DEFAULT/SECURITY INTEREST. 16.1. Upon failure by Merchant to meet any of its obligations under this Card Services Agreement (including funding the Reserve Account), any of the accounts referred to in section 5 may be debited without notice to Merchant, and Merchant (on behalf of itself and its affiliated entities) hereby grants to Member, Global Direct a lien and security interest in all of Merchant's right, title and interest in or to any of the following assets or properties, if any: (a) all of the accounts referenced in the preceding sentence, (b) the Reserve Account (without in any way suggesting that Merchant has ownership interest or property rights in the Reserve Account or the funds therein), (c) any rights to receive credits or payments under this Card Services Agreement and (d) all deposits and other property of Merchant that Member or its affiliates possess or maintain (including all proceeds of the foregoing). Merchant shall execute, acknowledge or deliver any documents or take any actions Member, Global Direct may from time to time request to better assure, preserve, protect, perfect, maintain or enforce this security interest. To the extent not prohibited by law, Merchant irrevocably authorizes Member, Global Direct to file any financing statements (at Merchant's expense) in any relevant jurisdiction or any other documents or instruments related to this security interest. Except as provided in section 15 (relating to the Reserve Account), Merchant represents and warrants that (a) Merchant has good and valid rights and title to the property described herein, (b) Merchant has full power and authority to grant to Member the security interest pursuant hereto and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations in accordance with the terms of this Card Services Agreement, without the consent or approval of any other person or entity, (c) no other person or entity has a security interest or lien in any of the property described herein and (d) this security interest is a first lien security interest and secures Merchant's obligations to Member under this Card Services Agreement. Member shall have all rights of a secured party and Merchant must obtain the prior written consent of Member before granting any subsequent security interest or lien in the property described herein. Merchant agrees that it is Merchant's intent that these accounts and secured property shall to the extent allowed by applicable law not be subject to any preference, claim, or stay by reason of any bankruptcy or insolvency law. Merchant agrees to act consistently with the understanding that said accounts and secured property under this Card Services Agreement are free of all such preferences, claims or stays by reason of and as allowed by any such law. The scope of the security interest, and Merchant's (on behalf of itself and its affiliated entities) instructions to its financial institutions to accept withdrawal requests from Global Direct, Member, and Merchant's agreement to hold such institutions harmless and to indemnify them, to the extent not prohibited under applicable law, are described above in section 15. 16.2. Merchant also agrees that, in the event of a default by Merchant, Member has rights of setoff and recoupment and may apply any of Merchant's balances or any other monies due Merchant from Member towards the payment of amounts due from Merchant under the terms DocuSign Envelope ID: 69E4955D-23F3-4407-84A7-E75FDC837DB9 of this Card Services Agreement.

Class Action Waiver: Merchant acknowledges and agrees that all disputes arising out of or related to this Card Services Agreement shall be resolved on an individual basis without resort to any form of class action and shall not be consolidated with the claims of any other parties. Merchant further agrees to waive, and hereby waives, the right to participate in a class action or to litigate or arbitrate on a class wide basis. 17.3.
