| | (a) | Inclearing Items. As of the opening of business on the Closing Date, Seller shall advise the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland that the account number ranges of the routing
transit number associated with the Branches should be reassigned to Purchaser and shall further provide the information in order to expedite the clearing and sorting of all checks, drafts instruments and other commercial paper relative to the
Deposits (hereinafter collectively referred to as the Paper Items). Purchaser shall bear all charges and costs imposed by the Federal Reserve in connection with reassignment of account number ranges for sorting the Paper Items. In the
event the Federal Reserve fails or refuses to direct sort such Paper Items for delivery to Purchaser with the result that such Paper Items are presented to Seller, for a period of sixty (60) days following the Closing Date (the Inclearing
Period), Seller shall continue to process and pay checks or drafts drawn on Deposits which are not intercepted by the FRB. By 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time of every banking day during the Inclearing Period, Seller shall transmit a list of inclearing
items, setting forth the amount and the Seller account number of each item received by Seller for payment that day. Seller shall not perform any verification of items received which are written for amounts of less than $10,000.00; however, Seller
shall review items written for amounts of $10,000.00 or above and contact Purchaser to determine that the items are properly payable and to verify that the makers signature matches that of the account holder of record as of the Closing Date.
Seller shall return all of the foregoing items it determines not to be properly payable or for which it is unable to verify the signatures. No later than 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time of the next banking day after the list is received, Purchaser shall
transmit by facsimile or e-mail a list to Seller of those items which are not to be paid, which Seller shall return unpaid, for the reason noted by Purchaser. Seller shall be held harmless and indemnified by Purchaser for acting in accordance with
such instructions from Purchaser. Upon expiration of the Inclearing Period, Seller shall cease honoring inclearing items presented against the Deposits and such items shall be returned marked Refer to Maker. Magnetic tape or other
written media will utilize the most recent account number designated by Seller for each of the Deposit Accounts. Seller and Purchaser shall settle amounts due under this Section 8.04(a) by wire transfer.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

originator, originator identification number and receiver for each ACH entry for the Deposit Accounts and shall further provide, within seven (7) days following the Closing Date, an updated list as of the close of business on the Closing Date.
For a period of sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, Seller agrees to continue to accept and immediately forward to Purchaser all automated clearinghouse entries and corresponding funds. Seller also agrees to include the originator
identification number, and Purchaser agrees to immediately notify and instruct the originator of the ACH to reroute the entries directly to Purchaser.

| | (c) | Over-the-Counter Returned Items. For a period of sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, Seller shall by facsimile or e-mail provide Purchaser with a list of
over-the-counter returned items on the day they are received by Seller. Over-the-counter returned items are those items that are included within the Deposits transferred to Purchaser but that are returned unpaid to Seller after the Closing Date. By
11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the next banking day, Purchaser shall notify Seller of any unacceptable returned items due to non-sufficient funds. On the same banking day Purchaser transmits the list, Seller shall send only items deemed acceptable by
Purchaser, by overnight mail to Purchaser for next banking day delivery. On the same day, Purchaser shall transmit to Seller in immediately available funds by wire transfer, the sum of the accepted over-the-counter returned items.
