                              ENGlobal Corporation
                        2004 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
                          (Effective February 1, 2004)

1.   Purpose of the Plan. ENGlobal Corporation has adopted this Plan to provide
Eligible Employees with the opportunity and a convenient means to purchase
Shares as an incentive to exert their maximum efforts for the success of the
Company. Capitalized terms have the meanings ascribed to them in Section 5.1.
ENGlobal intends that options to purchase stock granted under this Plan qualify
as options granted under an "employee stock purchase plan" as defined in Section
423(b) of the Code, and this Plan will be construed and applied so as to be
consistent with Section 423 of the Code, including the requirement of Section
423(b)(5) of the Code that all Participants granted options to purchase Shares
under the Plan have the same rights and privileges with respect to such options.

2.   Participation in the Plan.

     2.1 Eligibility. Each Eligible Employee who is employed by an Employer on
an Enrollment Date may participate in the Plan during the relevant Offering
Period, except for employees whose customary employment is 20 hours or less per
week or employees whose customary employment is for not more than 5 months in
any calendar year, unless the Code prohibits his or her participation in that
Offering Period because:

          (a) Immediately after the grant of an option under this Plan on the
Purchase Date, the Eligible Employee (together with certain individuals and
entities associated with or related to the Eligible Employee as described in
Section 424(d) of the Code) would be deemed to own a number of shares of stock
and certain exercisable options to purchase stock that together represent 5% or
more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the
ENGlobal (computed in accordance with Section 423(b)(3) of the Code); or

          (b) Immediately after the grant of an option under this Plan to an
Eligible Employee on the Purchase Date, the Eligible Employee's rights to
purchase Shares under all of the employee stock purchase plans described in
Section 423 of the Code of ENGlobal would accrue at a rate that exceeded $25,000
(computed based on the Fair Market Value on the Purchase Date in accordance with
Section 423(b)(8) of the Code) during the calendar year of that Offering Period.

     2.2 Enrollment to Buy Stock. On the Purchase Date for each Offering Period,
and, subject to the other provisions of this Plan, the Company shall purchase
Shares for the account of each Eligible Employee who:

          (a) has completed an Enrollment Agreement in the form, format, and as
otherwise required by the Stock Administrator, and

          (b) delivered that Enrollment Agreement to the Stock Administrator at
least 10 business days before the Enrollment Date for an Offering Period.

     2.3 Designation of Beneficiary. Each Participant may from time to time
designate a beneficiary by filing a written beneficiary designation form with
the Stock Administrator. Such beneficiary shall receive, on Participant's death,
any refunds of amounts not used to purchase Shares and any Shares purchased on
Participant's behalf but not yet issued to the Participant. If no beneficiary is
designated at the time of a Participant's death, then any cash refunds and
transfers of Shares shall be made to the appropriate representative of the
Participant's estate.

     2.4 Contributions; Payroll Deductions; Account; No Interest.

          (a) The Company will withhold from each Participant's paycheck the
percentage of Eligible Compensation specified in his then-current Enrollment
Agreement commencing on the first pay date after the Enrollment Date next
following the delivery by Employee to the Company of an Enrollment Agreement. In
addition, the Company may make a discretionary Matching Contribution to each
Participant's Account. The Company shall continue to withhold a like amount and
to reserve the right to make a Matching Contribution on each pay date throughout

<PAGE>

that Offering Period and each future Offering Period until the Employee ceases
to be a Participant or, if earlier, changes his Enrollment Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company shall not withhold or
allow any Participant's contributions to exceed the lesser of 15% of Eligible
Compensation or $25,000 per calendar year.

          (b) ENGlobal will hold and use the amounts withheld from each
Participant's paycheck (or otherwise contributed by Participant) together with
any Matching Contributions made by ENGlobal for the benefit of each Participant
until the earlier of the date those amounts are (i) used to purchase Shares, or
(ii) refunded to the Participant and to ENGlobal in accordance with Sections 2.6
and 2.7. ENGlobal will not be required to segregate any of these funds from its
general corporate fund, and will not pay interest on any of these funds unless
otherwise required by applicable law. Under no circumstances will ENGlobal be
required to pay to Participant any Matching Contribution that is not used for
the purchase of Shares.

     2.5 Changes in Contributions. During an Offering Period, a Participant may
not change the percentage of Eligible Compensation to be withheld from his
paycheck (or otherwise to be contributed), except by withdrawing from the Plan.
However, a new Enrollment Agreement may be submitted for any subsequent Offering
Period.

     2.6 Withdrawal.

          (a) A Participant may stop participating in the current Offering
Period and each future Offering Period by delivering a Withdrawal Agreement to
the Stock Administrator at least 10 business days before the Purchase Date for
the then-current Offering Period. Delivery of a Withdrawal Agreement will:

               (i) permanently and irrevocably terminate the Withdrawing
Employee's participation in the then-current Offering Period, and

               (ii) suspend the Withdrawing Employee's participation in any
future Offering Periods until he delivers an Enrollment Agreement to the Stock
Administrator.

An election to stop participating in one Offering Period will not prevent an
Eligible Employee from participating in any future Offering Period or in any
other Plan adopted by ENGlobal, provided that the Eligible Employee will not
participate in any future Offering Period until he submits a new Enrollment
Agreement.

          (b) As soon as practical after receiving a Withdrawal Agreement,
ENGlobal will:

               (i) stop withholding the applicable percentage of Eligible
Compensation from the Withdrawing Employee's paychecks or otherwise accepting
contributions to the Withdrawing Employee's Participant Account;

               (ii) refund to the Withdrawing Employee all amounts previously
withheld from his paychecks or otherwise contributed to the Withdrawing
Employee's Participant Account (excluding any Matching Contributions) during the
then-current Offering Period, but only if such amounts withheld or other
contributions have not otherwise been used to purchase Shares for and on behalf
of the Eligible Employee; and

               (iii) refund to ENGlobal all amounts previously contributed as
Matching Contributions on behalf of the Withdrawing Employee during the
then-current Offering Period, but only if such contributions have not otherwise
been used to purchase Shares for and on behalf of the eligible Employee.

     2.7 Termination of Employment; Leave of Absence.

          (a) If a Participant's employment with the Company terminates,
including by death, on or before a Purchase Date, he will be deemed to have
elected to withdraw from the Plan effective as of the date that his employment
terminates.

                                       2
<PAGE>

          (b) As soon as practical after a Participant's termination of
employment, ENGlobal will:

               (i) refund all amounts withheld from his paycheck or otherwise
contributed under this Plan (excluding any Matching Contributions) that have not
been used to purchase Shares from ENGlobal or otherwise refunded;

               (ii) refund to ENGlobal all Matching Contributions made on behalf
of the terminated Employee that have not been used to purchase Shares from
ENGlobal; and

               (iii) distribute, or direct the Plan Custodian to distribute, any
Shares held by the Employer or the Plan Custodian on the Participant's behalf to
the Participant or his designee.

          (c) A Participant on an approved leave of absence will be deemed to
have elected to withdraw from the Plan on the first day of the approved leave of
absence, and such deemed election to withdraw shall be effective for each such
Offering Period and each subsequent Offering Period until he returns to work and
submits a new Enrollment Form.

     2.8 Transferability. Neither the amounts credited to a Participant Account
nor any other rights of a Participant under the Plan may be assigned,
transferred, pledged, or otherwise disposed of in any way (other than by will or
the laws of descent and distribution) by the Participant. Shares shall be
purchased under this Plan on Participant's behalf only during Participant's
lifetime. Any attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge, or other disposition will
be without effect, except that ENGlobal will treat such act as an election to
withdraw funds in accordance with Section 2.6 and Section 2.7.

3.   Purchase of Stock

     3.1 Offering Periods. Each calendar year, the Company shall have four
Offering Periods: one beginning on January 1 and ending on March 31, one
beginning on April 1 and ending on June 30, one beginning on July 1 and ending
on September 30 and one beginning on October 1 and ending on December 31.

     3.2 Purchase of Stock. On each Enrollment Date, ENGlobal will offer each
Participant the opportunity to have Eligible Compensation withheld from his
paycheck (or to contribute Eligible Compensation in a manner approved by
ENGlobal) to be used to purchase Shares on the next Purchase Date. The number of
Shares the Participant will purchase on each Purchase Date, using the funds
accumulated since the prior Enrollment Date, will be a number of whole and
fractional Shares equal to (i) the balance of his Participant Account divided by
an amount equal to the lesser of (x) 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on
the first day of the Offering Period or (y) 90% of the Fair Market Value per
Share on the last day of the Offering Period, minus (ii) the number of whole and
fractional Shares, if any, necessary to prevent that Participant from exceeding
the limits established in Section 2.4(a).

     3.3 Payment for Shares. Immediately upon each purchase of shares on
Participant's account, the amount held by ENGlobal for the benefit of that
Participant will be reduced by the Purchase Price per Share multiplied by the
number of Shares purchased on behalf of that Participant.

     3.4 Delivery of Shares; Restrictions on Transfer; Voting.

          (a) As soon as practical after each Purchase Date, a stock certificate
will be issued to the Plan Custodian (or if a Participant so requests, to such
Participant) for the benefit of each Participant, (or if the Plan Administrator
so directs, the Company's transfer agent shall note the Participants stock
ownership electronically) for the Shares purchased on that Purchase Date. Such
certificate may be issued in nominee name.

          (b) All Shares purchased under this Plan will be held by ENGlobal or
the Plan Custodian until the earlier of (i) a request for delivery of the Shares
by the Participant, or (ii) the termination of the Participant's employment with
the Company.

                                       3
<PAGE>

          (c) As soon as practical after termination of a Participant's
employment with the Company, and if timely requested by that Participant in a
form approved by the Plan Custodian, certificates representing Shares purchased
under the Plan will be issued in the name of that Participant.

          (d) All Shares purchased under this Plan shall be nontransferable and
nonassignable for six months after the date such Shares are issued to the
Participant (whether or not such issuance is accomplished by delivery of a share
certificate or by electronic notation by the transfer agent). Any attempt to
sell, gift, pledge or otherwise transfer any Shares prior to the expiration of
six months from issuance shall be ineffective and void.

          (e) ENGlobal will pay all issue or initial transfer taxes of the
Company with respect to the initial purchase of Shares, as well as all fees and
expenses necessarily incurred by the Company in connection with such purchase.

          (f) Subject to the restrictions of Section 3.4(d), a Participant who
purchases Shares under this Plan shall have, as of the date such Shares are
purchased, substantially all of the rights of ownership of such Shares in
accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.421-1(f) as in effect on the
Effective Date. Such rights of ownership shall include the right to vote, the
right to receive declared dividends, the right to share in the assets of Company
in the event of liquidation, the right to inspect Company's books (to the extent
granted by applicable law), and the right to pledge or sell such Shares, subject
to the restrictions on such rights in this Plan and the restrictions on such
rights imposed by applicable law.

     3.5 Periodic Reports. As soon as practical after each Offering Period, a
statement will be sent to each person who was a Participant under this Plan
during the Offering Period, which statement will include (i) the total amount of
all payroll deductions or other contributions, including Matching Contributions,
made during the applicable Offering Period or otherwise held under this Plan for
the benefit of the Participant, (ii) the number of Shares purchased on behalf of
Participant on each applicable Purchase Date, (iii) the per share and aggregate
purchase price per Share for those Shares, (iv) the remaining cash balance, if
any held by any Employer for the benefit of Participant, and (v) such other
information as the Stock Administrator or Plan Custodian deems appropriate.

     3.6 No Rights in Shares Prior to Purchase. Neither a Participant nor his
beneficiaries will have any interest or voting right in Shares prior to the
Purchase Date on which such Shares are purchased.

4.   Operation of the Plan

     4.1 Effective Date and Term of Plan. This Plan has been adopted to be
effective on February 1, 2004 and will remain effective until December 31, 2010,
unless sooner terminated under Section 4.5.

     4.2 Shares Authorized for Sale and Issuance Under the Plan.

          (a) The maximum number of Shares that may be sold and issued under
this Plan will be 1,200,000 Shares, although the stated maximum will be adjusted
as provided in Section 5.2 below. The maximum number of Shares that may be sold
on a Purchase Date resulting from one Offering Period will be 150,000 Shares,
adjusted as provided in section 5.2. If any option to purchase Shares granted
under this Plan is not exercised for any reason, the Shares subject to that
option will remain available to be sold and issued under this Plan.

          (b) If, for any reason, the number of Shares available for sale and
issuance under this Plan under Section 4.2(a) is less than the number of Shares
to be sold and issued under Section 3.3 on a Purchase Date, the Company will
allocate the Shares available for sale and issuance pro rata among the
Participants in as uniform a manner as it determines to be equitable. In such
event, the Stock Administrator or Plan Custodian will notify each Participant of
the reduction in the number of Shares and the reason for such reduction.

          (c) Shares sold and issued under this Plan may, in the sole and
absolute discretion of the Board, be either authorized and unissued Shares or
treasury Shares that are bought or otherwise acquired in public or private
transactions.

     4.3 Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares.

          (a) Compliance With Laws. ENGlobal will not be required to sell or
issue any Shares under this Plan to any Eligible Employee unless the sale,
issuance and delivery of Shares complies, in the opinion of ENGlobal's counsel,
with all applicable laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, the
Securities Act of 1933 and the rules and regulations of the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission, and all rules and regulations of the
American Stock Exchange or other applicable stock exchange or quotation system
upon which the Shares are listed or traded.

          (b) Investment Intent. As a condition to participation in the Plan,
ENGlobal may require a Participant to represent and warrant at the time that the
Shares are being acquired that such Shares are being purchased only for
investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares
if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required
by any of the aforementioned applicable provisions of law.

Participants on a pro rata basis.

     4.6 Approval of the Stockholders. Commencement of the Plan will be subject
to approval by the stockholders of the Company within 12 months after the date

Participants.

     4.7 No Liability for Good Faith Determinations. Neither the members of the
Board, the Stock Administrator nor the Plan Custodian (nor their delegates) will

with respect to the Plan or any right to purchase Shares granted under it.
Members of the Board and the Stock Administrator (and their delegates) will be
entitled to indemnification and reimbursement by ENGlobal in respect of any
claim, loss, damage, or expense (including attorneys' fees, the costs of
settling any suit, provided such settlement is approved by independent legal
counsel selected by ENGlobal, and amounts paid in satisfaction of a judgment,
except a judgment based on a finding of bad faith) arising therefrom to the full
extent permitted by law and under any directors and officers' liability or
similar insurance coverage that may from time to time be in effect.

split, liquidating dividend, combination of shares, exchange of shares, change
in corporate structure or other transaction not involving the receipt of
consideration by the Company), the Plan and outstanding rights will be
appropriately adjusted in the class(es) and maximum number of Shares subject to
the Plan and the class(es) and number of Shares and price per Share of Shares
subject to outstanding rights. Such adjustments will be made by the Board, the
determination of which will be final, binding and conclusive. The conversion of
any convertible securities of the Company will not be treated as a "transaction
not involving the receipt of consideration by the Company."

          (b) If (i) a dissolution or liquidation of ENGlobal or a sale of all
or substantially all of ENGlobal's assets; (ii) a merger or consolidation in

immediately preceding the merger are converted by virtue of the merger into
other property, whether in the form of securities, cash or otherwise; or (iv)
any other capital reorganization in which more than 50% of the shares of the
Company entitled to vote are exchanged, is proposed to be consummated, then, the
Purchase Date for the applicable Offering Period will be accelerated to the date
such transaction is consummated, and the payroll deductions of the Participants
made through the Purchase Date will be used to purchase Shares immediately prior
to such transaction and all further rights of the Participants will terminate,
unless otherwise provided by the Board in its sole discretion.

     5.3 Notices; Waiver of Notice.

          (a) To a Participant. All notices or other communications relating to
the Plan given to a Participant or former Participant by the Board, ENGlobal, or
any Employer will be deemed delivered on the day the notice or other
communication is (i) personally delivered to that person, (ii) electronically
transmitted to a person who on the date of that transmission either is an
Eligible Employee or has consented to receiving notices by electronic
transmission to the last known electronic transmission address of that person,
or (iii) placed in the United States mail in an envelope addressed to the last
known address of that person, whichever is earlier.

          (b) By a Participant. All notices or other communications relating to

form by the Stock Administrator at ENGlobal's corporate headquarters address, or
(ii) electronically transmitted by an Eligible Employee to the Stock
Administrator by means of ENGlobal's internal corporate e-mail or intranet
system, provided that such notice is in the form specified by ENGlobal and is
acknowledged by the Stock Administrator.

          (c) Consent to Electronic Delivery of Notices, Plan Documents and
Prospectuses. By requesting to participate in the Plan, an Eligible Employee
will be deemed to consent to receiving copies of all notices and other
communications relating to the Plan by electronic transmission, including but
not limited to the Prospectus relating to the Plan, all enrollment and other
participation materials, and all other documents required to be delivered in
connection with the Plan. Upon request, ENGlobal will provide any such documents
to any Eligible Employee in tangible written form.

          (d) Waiver of Notice. Any person entitled to notice under the Plan may
waive the notice.

     5.4 Severability. If any provision of this Plan is held by final judgment
of a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable,
such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision shall be severed from the
remainder of this Plan, and the remainder of this Plan shall be enforced. In
addition, the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision shall be deemed to be
automatically modified, and, as so modified, to be included in this Plan, such
modification being made to the minimum extent necessary to render the provision
valid, legal and enforceable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if the
severed or modified provision concerns all or a portion of the essential
consideration to be delivered under this Plan by one party to the other, the
remaining provisions of this Plan shall also be modified to the extent necessary
to equitably adjust the parties' respective rights and obligations hereunder.

     5.5 Successors and Assigns. The Plan is binding on all Participants and
their respective heirs, legatees, and legal representatives, including but not
limited to their estate and the executors, any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy
or representative of creditors of such person, and upon the Employer, its
successors and assigns.

convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in construction of
the provisions hereof. Reference to sections are to Sections of this Plan unless
otherwise indicated.

     5.7 Governing Law; Venue. This Plan and rights to purchase Shares that may
be granted under this Plan will be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of Texas, without giving effect to any conflicts of law
rules or principles that might require the application of the laws of another
jurisdiction, except to the extent this Plan or those rights are governed by the
Nevada General Corporation Law, or the federal law of the United States. Any
claims brought against this Plan must be brought in Harris County, Texas.

     5.8 No Right to Employment. Nothing in this Plan, any amendment to this
Plan, or the creation of any Participant Account, the execution or submission of
any Enrollment Agreement or Withdrawal Agreement, or the issuance of any Shares
of Shares, will give any Eligible Employee any right (a) to continue employment
with any Employer, (b) any legal or equitable right against ENGlobal or any
Employer, or any officer, director, or Employee of ENGlobal or its Participating
Affiliates, in connection with his employment by the Employer, or (c) interfere
in any way with the Employer's right to terminate or otherwise modify his
employment at any time, except as expressly provided by the Plan or by
applicable law.

This Plan has been executed by a duly authorized officer of the Company, this
18th day of December, 2003, to be effective as of February 1, 2004.

All Rights Reserved

This document contains proprietary and confidential information of Fiserv
Solutions, Inc. and may not be copied, published, disclosed or distributed
without the express written consent of Fiserv Solutions, Inc. The material in
this document, including terms, procedures, fees and other conditions, comprise
an agreement to consider which will remain valid for ninety (90) days from
August 4, 2003. 

AGREEMENT dated as of October 20, 2003 ("Agreement") between FISERV
SOLUTIONS, INC., a Wisconsin corporation ("Fiserv"), and Heritage Commerce
Corp., a California corporation ("Client").

Fiserv and Client hereby agree as follows:

1.Term.  The initial term of this Agreement
shall be five (5) years following the date Fiserv Services (as defined below)
are first used by Client and unless written notice of non-renewal is provided by
either party at least 120 days prior to expiration of the term, this Agreement
shall automatically renew for a term of five (5) years.  This Agreement shall be
effective on the day services are first provided to Client by Fiserv
("Effective Date").

2.Services.  (a) Services Generally.
Fiserv, itself and through its affiliates, agrees to provide Client, and Client
agrees to obtain from Fiserv services ("Services") and products ("Products")
(collectively, "Fiserv Services") described in the attached Exhibits:

Exhibit A - Account Processing Services

Exhibit B - Item Processing Services

The Exhibits set forth specific terms and
conditions applicable to the Services and/or Products, and, where applicable,
the Fiserv affiliate so performing.  Client may select additional services and
products from time to time by incorporating an appropriate Exhibit to this
Agreement.

(b) Implementation Services.  Fiserv will provide
services (i) to convert Client's existing applicable data and/or information to
the Fiserv Services and/or (ii) to implement the Fiserv Services.  These
activities are referred to as "Implementation Services".  Client
agrees to cooperate with Fiserv in connection with Fiserv's provision of
Implementation Services and to provide all necessary information and assistance
to facilitate the conversion and/or implementation.  Client is responsible for
all out-of-pocket expenses associated with the Implementation Services. Fiserv
will provide Implementation Services as required in connection with Fiserv
Services.

(c) Training Services.  Fiserv shall provide
training, training aids, user manuals, and other documentation for Client's use
as Fiserv finds necessary to enable Client personnel to become familiar with
Fiserv Services.  If requested by Client, classroom training in the use and
operation of Fiserv Services will be provided at a training facility designated
by Fiserv.  All such training aids and manuals remain Fiserv's property.

3.Fees for Fiserv Services.  (a)
General.  Client agrees to pay Fiserv:

(i) Fees for Fiserv Services for the following month as
specified in the Exhibits;

(ii) out-of-pocket charges for the following month payable by
Fiserv for the account of Client; and

(iii) Taxes (as defined below) thereon (collectively,
"Fees").

Fiserv shall timely reconcile Fees paid by Client for the
Fiserv Services for the month and the fees and charges actually due Fiserv based
on Client's actual use of Fiserv Services for such month.  Fiserv shall either
issue a credit to Client or provide Client with an invoice for any additional
fees or other charges owed.  Fiserv may change the amount of Fees billed to
reflect appropriate changes in actual use of Fiserv Services.  Fees may be
increased from time to time as set forth in the Exhibits, provided, however,
that Client receives 60 days prior written notice of such fee increases.  Upon
60 days prior written notification to Client and upon acceptance by Client,
Fiserv may increase its fees in excess of amounts listed in the Exhibits in the
event that Fiserv implements major system enhancements as required by changes in
law or government regulation; provided that any such fee increase: (A) shall be
similarly applied to Fiserv's clients receiving similar services; and (B) shall
not exceed 20%.

(b) Additional Charges.  Fees for out-of-pocket
expenses, such as telephone, microfiche, courier, and other charges incurred by
Fiserv for goods or services obtained by Fiserv on Client's behalf shall be
billed to Client at cost plus the applicable Fiserv administrative fee.  Such
out-of-pocket expenses may be changed from time to time upon notification of a
fee change from a vendor/provider.  The Fees do not include, and Client shall be
responsible for, furnishing transportation or transmission of information
between Fiserv's service center(s), Client's site(s), and any applicable
clearing house, regulatory agency, or Federal Reserve Bank.

(c) Taxes.  Fiserv shall add to each invoice any
sales, use, excise, value added, and other taxes and duties however designated
that are levied by any taxing authority relating to the Fiserv Services
("Taxes").  In no event shall "Taxes" include taxes based
upon the net income of Fiserv.

(d) Payment Terms.  Estimated Fees are due and
payable monthly 15 days after Client's receipt of invoice; except that Client
may withhold an invoiced amount that is disputed by Client in good faith,
provided that Client gives Fiserv written notice and explanation of such good
faith dispute within 15 days after Client's receipt of invoice.  Client shall
pay Fiserv through the Automated Clearing House.  In the event any undisputed
amounts due remain unpaid beyond the 30th day after payment is due,
Client shall pay a late charge of 1.5 % per month.  With the exception of
amounts disputed in good faith as set forth herein, Client agrees that it shall
neither make nor assert any right of deduction or set-off from Estimated Fees on
invoices submitted by Fiserv for Fiserv Services.

4.Access to Fiserv Services.  (a)
Procedures.  Client agrees to comply with applicable regulatory
requirements and procedures for use of Services established by Fiserv.

(b) Changes.  Fiserv continually reviews and
modifies Fiserv systems used in the delivery of Services (the "Fiserv System")
to improve service and comply with government regulations, if any, applicable to
the data and information utilized in providing Services.  Fiserv reserves the
right to make changes in Services, including but not limited to operating
procedures, type of equipment or software resident at, and the location of
Fiserv's service center(s), provided that any such change shall not have a
material adverse affect on the Services.  Fiserv will provide at least 30 days
prior written notification to Client of any material change that affects
Client's normal operating procedures, reporting, or service costs prior to
implementation of such change. 

(c) Communications Lines.  Fiserv shall
order the installation of appropriate communication lines and equipment to
facilitate Client's access to Services.  Client understands and agrees to pay
charges relating to the installation and use of such lines and equipment as set
forth in the Exhibits.  

(d) Terminals and Related Equipment.  Client shall
obtain necessary and sufficient terminals and other equipment, approved by
Fiserv and compatible with the Fiserv System, to transmit and receive data and
information between Client's location(s), Fiserv's service center(s), and/or
other necessary location(s). Fiserv's terminal and equipment requirements shall
be set forth on the applicable exhibits.  Fiserv and Client may mutually agree
to change the type(s) of terminal and equipment used by Client.

5.Client Obligations.  (a) Input.
Client shall be solely responsible for the input, transmission, or delivery to
and from Fiserv of all information and data required by Fiserv to perform
Services unless Client has retained Fiserv to handle such responsibilities, as
specifically set forth in the Exhibits.  The information and data shall be
provided in a format and manner approved by Fiserv.  Client will provide at its
own expense or procure from Fiserv all equipment, computer software,
communication lines, and interface devices required to access the Fiserv System.
If Client has elected to provide such items itself, Fiserv shall provide Client
with a list of compatible equipment and software; Client agrees to pay Fiserv's
standard fee for recertification of the Fiserv System resulting therefrom. 

(b) Client and Fiserv Personnel.  Client shall
designate appropriate Client personnel for training in the use of the Fiserv
System.  Client shall supply Fiserv with reasonable access to Client's site
during normal business hours for Implementation Services and shall cooperate
with Fiserv personnel in their performance of Services.  Fiserv shall cause its
representatives to comply with Client's facility, safety, and security rules and
regulations and other reasonable instructions of Client when performing work at
a Client facility, provided that Client supplies Fiserv with copies of all such
rules and regulations in writing and reasonably in advance, and shall conduct
its work at Client facilities in such a manner as to avoid endangering the
safety, or interfering with the convenience of, Client's representatives of
customers.  Upon the reasonable request of Client, in the event any Fiserv
representative violates any of such rules and regulations while performing
Services at Client's facility, Fiserv agrees to remove such Fiserv
representative as soon as practically possible and replace such representative
as soon as practicable. 

(c) Use of Fiserv System.  Client shall (i) comply
with any operating instructions on the use of the Fiserv System provided by
Fiserv; (ii) review all reports furnished by Fiserv for accuracy; and (iii) work
with Fiserv to reconcile any out of balance conditions.  Client shall determine
and be responsible for the authenticity and accuracy of all information and data
submitted to Fiserv.

(d) Year 2000 Compliance.  Client shall be
responsible for ensuring that its systems are Year 2000 compliant and capable of
passing and/or accepting date formats from and/or to the Fiserv System.

6.Ownership and Confidentiality.  (a)
Definition.

(i) Client Information.  "Client
Information" means:  (A) the following type of information that is marked
with a restrictive legend, or if not so marked with such legend or is disclosed
orally, is identified as confidential at the time of disclosure (and written
confirmation thereof is promptly provided to Fiserv): confidential plans,
customer lists, data, trade secrets, business information, research,
development, business affairs (including that of Client's affiliates, customers,
or vendors or suppliers), proprietary material, and any other information of any
kind whatsoever which Client discloses, in writing, orally or visually, to
Fiserv or to which Fiserv obtains access in connection with the negotiation and
performance of this Agreement which relates to the Client, its customers and
employees, or third-party vendors of licensors who have made confidential or
proprietary information available to Client;  and (B) any information and data
concerning the Client's customers or the business and financial records and
accounts of Client's customers (whether or not any such information is marked
with a restrictive legend); and (C) any information and data received from
Client that Fiserv reasonably ought to know is confidential (whether or not any
such information is marked with a restrictive legend).

(ii) Fiserv Information. "Fiserv
Information" means:  (A) confidential plans, information, research,
development, trade secrets, business affairs (including that of any Fiserv
client, supplier, or affiliate), and other proprietary material of Fiserv that
is marked with a restrictive legend, or if not so marked with such legend or is
disclosed orally, is identified as confidential at the time of disclosure (and
written confirmation thereof is promptly provided to Client); and (B) Fiserv's
proprietary computer programs, including custom software modifications, software
documentation and training aids, and all data, code, techniques, algorithms,
methods, logic, architecture, and designs embodied or incorporated therein
(whether or not any such information is marked with a restrictive legend); and
(C) any information and data received from Fiserv that Client reasonably ought
to know is confidential (whether or not any such information is marked with a
restrictive legend).

(iii) Information.  "Information" means
Client Information and Fiserv Information.  No obligation of confidentiality
applies to any Information that the receiving party ("Recipient") (A)
already possesses without obligation of confidentiality; (B) develops
independently; or (C) rightfully receives without obligation of confidentiality
from a third party.  No obligation of confidentiality applies to any Information
that is, or becomes, publicly available without breach of this Agreement.

(b) Obligations.  Recipient agrees to hold as
confidential all Information it receives from the disclosing party
("Discloser").  All Information shall remain the property of Discloser
or its suppliers and licensors.  Information will be returned to Discloser at
the termination or expiration of this Agreement.  Fiserv acknowledges that
Client has a responsibility to its customers to keep information about its
customers and their records and accounts strictly confidential.  In addition to
the other confidentiality obligations set forth in this Agreement,  Fiserv
specifically agrees that it will not use any information about Client's
customers in any manner prohibited by Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and
it will not disclose or use any customer information other than to carry out the
specific purposes for which Client disclosed such information to Fiserv.
Recipient will use the same care and discretion to avoid disclosure of
Information as it uses with its own similar information that it does not wish
disclosed, but in no event less than a reasonable standard of care.  Recipient
may only use Information in accordance with the purpose of this Agreement.
Recipient may disclose Information to (i) employees and employees of affiliates
who have a need to know; and (ii) any other party with Discloser's written
consent.  Before disclosure to any of the above parties, Recipient will have a
written agreement with such party sufficient to require that party to treat
Information in accordance with this Agreement.  Recipient may disclose
Information to the extent required by law.  However, Recipient agrees to give
Discloser prompt notice so that it may seek a protective order.  The provisions
of this sub-section survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.

(c) Residuals.  Nothing contained in this
Agreement shall restrict Recipient from the use of any ideas, concepts, know-
how, or techniques contained in Information that are related to Recipient's
business activities ("Residuals"), provided that in so doing,
Recipient does not breach its obligations under this Section and subject further
to the patents and copyrights of the Discloser.  However, this does not give
Recipient the right to disclose the Residuals except as set forth elsewhere in
this Agreement.

(d) Fiserv System.  The Fiserv System contains
information and computer software that are proprietary and confidential
information of Fiserv, its suppliers, and licensors.  Client agrees not to
attempt to circumvent the devices employed by Fiserv to prevent unauthorized
access to the Fiserv System, including, but not limited to, alterations,
decompiling, disassembling, modifications, and reverse engineering thereof.

(e) Information Security and Privacy. 

(i) Fiserv acknowledges that Client is required to comply
with the information security standards required by Title V of the Gramm-Leach-
Bliley Act and the regulations issued thereunder and with other statutory and
regulatory requirements.  Fiserv shall adopt and maintain an information
security program with appropriate measures designed to meet the objectives of
the guidelines establishing standards for safeguarding non-public Client
customer information as adopted by any federal regulatory agencies having
jurisdiction over Client's affairs (the "Guidelines"). 

(ii) Within 30 days of Client's written request, Fiserv shall
make available for Client's review at Fiserv's data center Fiserv's written
information security policies for the protection of Client customer information.
The security policies shall be designed to: (A) Ensure the security, integrity
and confidentiality of Client customer information; (B) Protect against any
anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of such information;
and (C) Protect against unauthorized access to or use of such information that
could result in substantial harm or inconvenience to the person that is the
subject of such information.  The policies shall include provisions for
intrusion testing and the prompt reporting to Client of security breaches and
other incidents that Fiserv reasonably believes to have resulted in unauthorized
access to Client customer information.    

(iii) Fiserv shall update such policies as required by the
Guidelines, and shall permit Client to review reports on implementation of its
information security program and its information security policies as reasonably
requested by Client, including without limitation review of audits, summaries or
test results or other equivalent evaluations performed by Fiserv in this
regard.

 

(iv) Fiserv shall comply with the applicable elements of
such policies in performing the Services.  

(f) Confidentiality of this Agreement.  Fiserv and
Client agree to keep confidential the prices, terms and conditions of this
Agreement, without disclosure to third parties.

7.Regulatory Agencies, Regulations and Legal
Requirements.  (a) Client Files.  Records maintained and produced for
Client ("Client Files") may be subject to examination by such Federal, State, or
other governmental regulatory agencies as may have jurisdiction over Client's
business to the same extent as such records would be subject if maintained by
Client on its own premises.  Client agrees that Fiserv is authorized to give all
reports, summaries, or information contained in or derived from the data or
information in Fiserv's possession relating to Client when formally requested to
do so by an authorized regulatory or government agency, subject, however, to the
following:  Fiserv shall give notice to Client within 10 days of receiving
requests by federal and/or state authorities to examine Fiserv's records

agrees to comply with applicable regulatory and legal requirements.

respects, the specifications and performance standards and service level

accurately in reliance upon  Client supplying accurate data and information and
materially complying with the procedures described in all Fiserv documentation,
notices, and advices; (C) Fiserv personnel will exercise due care in provision
of Services and Fiserv shall perform the Services in a professional manner; (D)
the Fiserv System will comply in all material respects with all applicable
Federal and State regulations governing Services; and (E) the Fiserv System is
Year 2000 compliant.  In the event of an error or other default caused by Fiserv
personnel, systems, or equipment, Fiserv shall promptly correct the data or
information and/or reprocess the affected item or report at no additional cost
to Client and in compliance with the performance standards and service level
requirements set forth in the exhibits.  Client agrees to supply Fiserv with a
written request for correction of the error within 7 days, after Client's
receipt of the work containing the error.  Work reprocessed due to errors in
data supplied by Client, on Client's behalf by a third party, or by Client's
failure to materially comply with the procedures set forth by Fiserv shall be
billed to Client at Fiserv's time and material rates, the applicable schedule
for which shall be provided to Client on an annual basis; 

(ii) it owns or has a license to furnish all equipment or
software comprising the Fiserv System.  Fiserv shall indemnify Client and its
representatives, successors, and permitted assigns, and hold Client and its
representatives, successors and permitted assigns harmless from and against any
and all claims made or threatened by a third party and all related losses,
expenses, damages, costs and liabilities, including royalties and license fees
and reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses incurred in investigation or defense
("Damages") to the extent that such Damages arise out of an allegation
that use of the Fiserv System infringes a United States patent, copyright, or
other proprietary right of a third party.  Client agrees to notify Fiserv
promptly of any such claim and grants Fiserv the sole right to control the
defense and disposition of all such claims suits or proceedings.   Client shall
provide Fiserv with reasonable cooperation and assistance in the defense of any
such claim; and

(iii) If the Fiserv System becomes, or in Fiserv's reasonable
opinion is likely to become, the subject of any claim, suit or proceeding
arising from or alleging infringement of, or in the event of any adjudication
that the Fiserv System infringes on, any United States patent, copyright, or
other proprietary right of a third party, Fiserv, at its own expense shall take
the following actions in the listed order of preference: (a) secure for itself
the right to continue using the Fiserv System; or (b) if commercially reasonable
efforts are unavailing, replace or modify the Fiserv System to make it non-
infringing; provided, however, that such modification or replacement shall not
degrade the operation or performance of the Services. 

(b) Client Warranties and Indemnities.  Client
represents and warrants that: (A) no contractual obligations exist that would
prevent Client from entering into this Agreement; (B) it has complied with all
applicable regulatory requirements; and (C) Client has requisite authority to
execute, deliver, and perform this Agreement.  Client shall indemnify and hold
harmless Fiserv, its officers, directors, employees, and affiliates against any
claims or actions arising out of (X) the use by Client of the Fiserv System in a
manner materially different than that provided in this Agreement; and (Y) any
and all claims by customers of Client arising out of the performance or non-
performance of Fiserv Services by Fiserv ("Customer Claims"),
provided that the indemnity listed in clause (Y) hereof shall not
preclude Client's recovery of damages (including Client's payment of damages as
a result of Customer Claims)  pursuant to the terms and subject to the
limitations of this Agreement.

THE WARRANTIES CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE LIMITED
WARRANTIES AND ARE THE ONLY WARRANTIES MADE BY THE PARTIES.  NEITHER PARTY
MAKES, AND THE OTHER PARTY HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES, ALL OTHER WARRANTIES,
INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

9.Limitation of Liability.  (a)
General.  IN NO EVENT SHALL FISERV BE LIABLE FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL, OR FOR
SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING FROM CLIENT'S
USE OF FISERV SERVICES, OR FISERV'S SUPPLY OF EQUIPMENT OR SOFTWARE, REGARDLESS
OF WHETHER SUCH CLAIM ARISES IN TORT OR IN CONTRACT.  FISERV'S AGGREGATE
LIABILITY FOR ANY AND ALL CAUSES OF ACTION RELATING TO THE SERVICES SHALL BE
LIMITED TO THE TOTAL FEES PAID BY CLIENT TO FISERV FOR SERVICES RESULTING IN
SUCH LIABILITY IN THE THREE (3) MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THE DATE THE CLAIM
ACCRUED.  FISERV'S AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR A DEFAULT RELATED TO THIRD PARTY
EQUIPMENT OR THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE WHICH MAY BE SUPPLIED BY FISERV PURSUANT TO
THE ADDITION TO THIS AGREEMENT OF EXHIBIT L "MATERIAL PURCHASED THROUGH
FISERV", SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT PAID BY CLIENT FOR SUCH EQUIPMENT
OR SOFTWARE.  NEITHER PARTY MAY ASSERT ANY CLAIM AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY MORE
THAN 3 YEARS AFTER SUCH CLAIM ACCRUED.

(b) Lost Records.  If Client's records or other
data submitted for processing are lost or damaged as a result of any failure by
Fiserv, its employees, or agents to exercise reasonable care to prevent such
loss or damage, Fiserv's liability on account of such loss or damages shall not
exceed the reasonable cost of reproducing such records or data from exact
duplicates thereof in Client's possession.

10.Business Continuity Plans.  (a)
General.  Fiserv agrees to establish, maintain and comply with a disaster
recovery plan for each Service (collectively, the "Business Continuity
Plan").  The Business Continuity Plan shall include contingency plans in
the event of a Disaster, which is defined as any unplanned interruption of the
operations of or inaccessibility to Fiserv's service center which requires, in
Fiserv's reasonable judgment, relocation of processing to a recovery location.
Upon Client's written request, Fiserv shall make the Business Continuity Plan
available for Client's review at Fiserv's data center and shall update the
Business Continuity Plan, subject again to Client's right to review as set forth
herein.  Fiserv shall notify Client as soon as possible after Fiserv deems a
service outage to be a Disaster.  If other repairs and restoration alternatives
have been exhausted as contemplated under the Business Continuity Plan, Fiserv
shall move the processing of Client's standard services to a recovery location
as expeditiously as possible and shall coordinate the cut-over to back-up
telecommunication facilities with the appropriate carriers.  Client shall
maintain adequate records of all transactions during the period of service
interruption and shall have personnel available to assist Fiserv in implementing
the switchover to the recovery location.  During a Disaster, optional or on-
request services shall be provided by Fiserv only to the extent adequate
capacity exists at the recovery location and only after stabilizing the
provision of base services.

(b) Communications.  The Business Continuity Plan
shall also include a plan for alternative communications in the event of a
Disaster.

(c) Business Continuity Testing.  Fiserv shall
test the Business Continuity Plan at least annually upon at least 90 days prior
written notice to Client unless such amount of notice is not practicable.
Fiserv shall allow Client an opportunity to participate in and assist Fiserv
with such testing.  Fiserv shall provide the test results to Client's
management, and shall make the test results available to Client's regulators,
auditors, and insurance underwriters, as requested.

(d) Client Plans.  Fiserv agrees to release
information necessary to allow Client's development of its own business
continuity plan that operates in concert with the Business Continuity Plan. 

(e) Compliance with Applicable Performance Standards
During a Disaster.  Client understands and agrees that the Business
Continuity Plan is designed to minimize, but not eliminate, risks associated
with a Disaster affecting Fiserv's service center(s).  Fiserv does not warrant
that Fiserv Services will be uninterrupted or error-free in the event of a
Disaster, but in the event of a Disaster will use commercially reasonable
efforts to comply with the applicable performance standards set forth in the
Exhibits.  Client shall adopt a disaster recovery plan relating to disasters
affecting Client's facilities. 

11.Termination.  (a) Material Breach.
Except as provided elsewhere in this Agreement, either party may terminate this
Agreement in the event of a material breach by the other party not cured within
sixty (60) days following written notice stating, with particularity and in
reasonable detail, the nature of the claimed breach.  

(b) Failure to Pay.  In the event any invoice
remains unpaid by Client 30 days after due, Fiserv, at its sole option, may
terminate this Agreement and/or Client's access to and use of Fiserv Services.
Any invoice submitted by Fiserv shall be deemed correct unless Client provides
written notice to Fiserv within 30 days of the invoice date specifying the
nature of the disagreement.

(c) Remedies.  Remedies contained in this Section
11 are cumulative and are in addition to the other rights and remedies available
to Fiserv under this Agreement, by law or otherwise.

(d) Defaults.  If Client defaults in the payment
of any sum of money due as set forth in Section 11(b); or if either party
breaches this Agreement in any material respect or otherwise defaults in any
material respect in the performance of any of its obligations and fails to cure
such breach as set forth in Section 11(a), or commits an act of bankruptcy or
becomes the subject of any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or becomes
insolvent or if any substantial part of the party's property becomes subject to
any levy, seizure, assignment, application, or sale for or by any creditor or
governmental agency; then, in any such event, the other party may, upon written
notice, terminate this Agreement. In addition, where Fiserv is the terminating
party, Fiserv shall be entitled to recover from Client as liquidated damages an
amount equal to the termination fee calculated pursuant to Section 11(e) below.
Client party agrees to reimburse Fiserv for any expenses Fiserv may incur,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, in taking any of the foregoing
actions.

(e) Convenience.  Client may terminate this
Agreement by paying a termination fee based on the remaining unused term of this
Agreement, the amount to be determined by multiplying Client's largest monthly
invoice for each Fiserv Service received by Client during the term (or if no
monthly invoice has been received, the sum of the estimated monthly billing for
each Fiserv Service to be received hereunder) by 80% times the remaining months
of the term, plus any unamortized conversion fees or third party costs existing
on Fiserv's books on the date of termination.  Client understands and agrees
that Fiserv losses incurred as a result of early termination of the Agreement
would be difficult or impossible to calculate as of the effective date of
termination since they will vary based on, among other things, the number of
clients using the Fiserv System on the date the Agreement terminates.
Accordingly, the amount set forth in the first sentence of this subsection
represents Client's agreement to pay and Fiserv's agreement to accept as
liquidated damages (and not as a penalty) such amount for any such Client
termination.

(f) Transition Services.  Upon termination of this
Agreement for any reason, Fiserv agrees to continue to provide the Services to
Client for up to 180 days, if so requested by Client, subject to the following:

(i) Client shall provide written notice to Fiserv at least 60
days in advance of its need for such Services.

(ii) Client shall pay for the Services at the then-current
fees under the Exhibits plus 30%, unless Client is terminating this Agreement
pursuant to Section 11(d), in which event such 30% increase shall not apply.

(iii) If Fiserv is terminating this Agreement pursuant to
Section 11(b), Client shall pre-pay Fiserv for all Services requested.   

Fiserv further agrees to otherwise cooperate and provide
reasonable and customary assistance to Client to enable Client to deconvert from
the Fiserv System as it transitions to a new provider of the Services. 

(g) Return of Data Files.  Upon expiration or
termination of this Agreement, Fiserv shall furnish to Client such copies of
Client Files as Client may request in a Fiserv format, provided,
however, that Client consents and agrees and authorizes Fiserv to retain
Client Files until (i) Fiserv is paid in full for (A) all Services provided
through the date such Client Files are returned to Client, unless such payments
are in dispute in accordance with Section 3(d); and (B) any and all other
amounts that are due or will become due under this Agreement, unless such
payments are in dispute in accordance with Section 3(d); (ii) Fiserv is paid its
then standard rates for the services necessary to return such Client Files;
(iii) if this Agreement is being terminated, Fiserv is paid any applicable
termination fee pursuant to subsection (d) or (e) above; and (iv) Client has
returned to Fiserv all Fiserv Information.  Unless directed by Client in writing
to the contrary, Fiserv shall be permitted to destroy Client Files any time
after 90 days from the final use of Client Files for processing.

(h) Miscellaneous.  Client understands and agrees
that Client is responsible for the deinstallation and return shipping of any
Fiserv-owned equipment located on Client's premises.

12.Dispute Resolution.  (a) General.
Except with respect to disputes arising from a misappropriation or misuse of
either party's proprietary rights, any dispute or controversy arising out of
this Agreement, or its interpretation, shall be submitted to and resolved
exclusively by arbitration under the rules then prevailing of the American
Arbitration Association, upon written notice of demand for arbitration by the
party seeking arbitration, setting forth the specifics of the matter in
controversy or the claim being made.  The arbitration shall be heard before an
arbitrator mutually agreeable to the parties; provided, that if the parties
cannot agree on the choice of arbitrator within 10 days after the first party
seeking arbitration has given written notice, then the arbitration shall be
heard by 3 arbitrators, 1 chosen by each party, and the third chosen by those 2
arbitrators.  The arbitrators will be selected from a panel of persons having
experience with and knowledge of information technology and at least 1 of the
arbitrators selected will be an attorney.  A hearing on the merits of all claims
for which arbitration is sought by either party shall be commenced not later
than 60 days from the date demand for arbitration is made by the first party
seeking arbitration.  The arbitrator(s) must render a decision within 10 days
after the conclusion of such hearing.  Any award in such arbitration shall be
final and binding upon the parties and the judgment thereon may be entered in
any court of competent jurisdiction.

 (b) Applicable Law.  The arbitration shall be
governed by the United States Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. 1-16.  The arbitrators
shall apply the substantive law of the State of California, without reference to
provisions relating to conflict of laws.  The arbitrators shall not have the
power to alter, modify, amend, add to, or subtract from any term or provision of
this Agreement, nor to rule upon or grant any extension, renewal, or continuance
of this Agreement.  The arbitrators shall have the authority to grant any legal
remedy available had the parties submitted the dispute to a judicial
proceeding.

(c) Situs.  If arbitration is required to resolve
any disputes between the parties, the proceedings to resolve the first such
dispute shall be held in Santa Clara County, California or at another situs if
the parties so mutually agree, the proceedings to resolve the second such
dispute shall be held in Santa Clara County, CA, and the proceedings to resolve
any subsequent disputes shall alternate between Milwaukee, Wisconsin and Santa
Clara County, CA.

13.Insurance.  Fiserv shall at its own expense
secure and maintain, and provide to Client evidence of such coverage if Client
so requests, the following types of insurance policies:

(i) Comprehensive General Liability in an amount not less
than $1 million per occurrence for claims arising out of bodily injury and/or
death and property damage and/or personal injury;

(ii) Commercial Crime covering employee dishonesty in an
amount not less than $5 million;

(iii) All-risk property coverage including Extra Expense and
Business Income coverage; and

(iv) Workers Compensation as mandated or allowed by the laws
of the state in which Services are being performed, including $500,000 coverage
for Employer's Liability.

14.Audit.  Fiserv shall employ an internal
auditor responsible for ensuring the integrity of its processing environments
and internal controls.  In addition, as may be required by law or regulation,
Fiserv shall have, at its sole cost and expense, periodic independent audits of
its operations performed at least annually.  Fiserv shall provide Client with a
copy of the audit of the Fiserv service center providing Services within a
reasonable time after its completion and shall charge each client a fee based on
the pro rata cost of such audit.  Fiserv shall also provide a copy of such audit
to the appropriate regulatory agencies, if any, having jurisdiction over
Fiserv's provision of Services. 

15.General.  (a) Binding Agreement.
This Agreement is binding upon the parties and their respective successors and
permitted assigns.  Neither this Agreement nor any interest may be sold,
assigned, transferred, pledged, or otherwise disposed of by either party,
whether pursuant to change of control or otherwise, without the other party's
prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided,
however, that Client may assign this Agreement to its successor upon a change of
control, subject to the following:  (i) Such exception shall not be applicable
in the event Client has licensed Products from Fiserv under this Agreement; (ii)
the successor assignee shall be financially viable and of proven ability to meet
the requirements of this Agreement; (iii) the successor assignee shall remain
liable for then existing and future obligations, acts, and omissions under this
Agreement;  and (iv) Client shall give Fiserv at least 30 days prior written
notice of such assignment.  Fiserv may subcontract any Services to be performed
hereunder, provided, however, Fiserv provides to Client the list of its
subcontractors prior to the execution of this Agreement, and upon Client's
request thereafter.  Any such subcontractors shall be required to comply with
all applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without
limitation Sections 6, 10, and 13.

(b) Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, including
its Exhibits, which are expressly incorporated herein by reference, constitutes
the complete and exclusive statement of the agreement between the parties as to
the subject matter hereof and supersedes all previous agreements with respect
thereto.  Modifications of this Agreement must be in writing and signed by duly
authorized representatives of the parties.  Each party hereby acknowledges that
it has not entered into this Agreement in reliance upon any representation made
by the other party not embodied herein.  In the event any of the provisions of
any Exhibit are in conflict with any of the provisions of this Agreement, the
terms and provisions of this Agreement shall control unless the Exhibit in
question expressly provides that its terms and provisions shall control.

(c) Severability.  If any provision of this
Agreement is held to be unenforceable or invalid, the other provisions shall
continue in full force and effect.

(d) Governing Law.  This Agreement will be
governed by the substantive laws of the State of California, without reference
to provisions relating to conflict of laws.  The United Nations Convention of
Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall not apply to this
Agreement.

(e) Force Majeure.  Neither party shall be liable
for failure to perform under this Agreement if its failure to perform is caused
by any of the following conditions: acts of God, war or civil disorder, fire,
flood, sabotage, changes in government codes, laws and regulations, or other
causes beyond the commercially reasonable control of the affected party,
provided, however, that Fiserv shall not rely on this force majeure provision as
an excuse or delay in its performance before first deploying the applicable
elements of the Business Continuity Plan.

  

(f) Notices.  Any written notice required or
permitted to be given hereunder shall be given by: (i) Registered or Certified
Mail, Return Receipt Requested, postage prepaid; (ii) confirmed facsimile; or
(iii) nationally recognized courier service to the other party at the addresses
listed on the cover page or to such other address or person as a party may
designate in writing.  All such notices shall be effective upon receipt.

(g) No Waiver.  The failure of either party to
insist on strict performance of any of the provisions hereunder shall not be
construed as the waiver of any subsequent default of a similar nature.

(h) Financial Statements.  Fiserv shall provide
Client and the appropriate regulatory agencies so requiring a copy of Fiserv,
Inc.'s audited consolidated financial statements.

(i) Prevailing Party.  The prevailing party in any
arbitration, suit, or action brought against the other party to enforce the
terms of this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder, shall be
entitled to receive its reasonable costs, expenses, and attorneys' fees of
bringing such arbitration, suit, or action.

(j) Survival.  All rights and obligations of the
parties under this Agreement that, by their nature, do not terminate with the
expiration or termination of this Agreement shall survive the expiration or
termination of this Agreement.

(k) Exclusivity.  Client agrees that Fiserv shall
be the sole and exclusive provider of the services that are the subject matter
of this Agreement.  For purposes of the foregoing, the term "Client" shall
include Client affiliates.  Client agrees not to enter into an agreement with
any other entity to provide these services (or similar services) during the term
of this Agreement without Fiserv's prior written consent.  If Client is acquired
by another entity, the exclusivity provided to Fiserv hereunder shall apply with
respect to the level or volume of these services provided immediately prior to
the signing of the definitive acquisition agreement relating to such acquisition
and shall continue with respect to the level or volume of these services until
any termination or expiration of this Agreement.  If Client acquires another
entity, the exclusivity provided to Fiserv hereunder shall take effect with such
acquired entity as soon as practicable after termination of such acquired
entity's previously existing arrangement for these services.  If Client acquires
a Fiserv client receiving the same services as the Services from the same Fiserv
business unit providing such Services (the "Acquired Entity"), and
Client moves all of the Acquired Entity's processing under this Agreement,
Fiserv will allow termination of the Acquired Entity's Fiserv processing
agreement without payment of a termination fee under such agreement, provided
that the Services under this Agreement (including the additional processing for
the Acquired Entity) continue for at least the remainder of the then-current
term of the Acquired Entity's Fiserv processing agreement (the "Minimum
Term").  If the Services do not continue for the Minimum Term, Client shall
pay to Fiserv the termination fee under the Acquired Entity's Fiserv processing
agreement for the remainder of the Minimum Term.

(l) Recruitment of Employees.  Client agrees not
to hire Fiserv's employees during the term of this Agreement and for a period of
6 months after any termination or expiration thereof, except with Fiserv's prior
written consent.

(m) Publicity.  The parties shall mutually agree
on a press release relating to the execution of this Agreement.  Each party
shall mutually agree with the other regarding any media release, public
announcement, or similar disclosure relating to this Agreement or its subject
matter and shall give the other party a reasonable opportunity to review and
comment on the content of such release, announcement, or disclosure prior to its
release.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Fiserv shall have the right to make
general references to Client and the type of services being provided by Fiserv
to Client under this Agreement in Fiserv's oral and visual presentations to
Fiserv clients, prospective Fiserv clients, and financial analysts, provided
that such reference shall be consistent with any such mutually agreed press
release.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this
Agreement to be executed by their duly authorized representatives as of the date
indicated below.

Account Processing Services

Client agrees with Fiserv as follows:

1.Services.  Fiserv, through its affiliate,
Information Technology, Inc., will provide Client the Account Processing
Services ("Account Processing Services") specified in Exhibit A-1.

2.Fees. Client shall pay Fiserv the fees and
other charges for the Account Processing Services specified in Exhibit A-1.  The
fees listed in Exhibit A-2 are valid for the account processing services Client
contracts for as of the date of the Agreement.  If Client seeks additional
services from Fiserv during the term of the Agreement, Fiserv's fees therefore
will be quoted to Client upon request.  Fiserv agrees to give at least 30 days
written notice to Client of any changes in the rules and procedures established
for processing, unless such changes are caused by changes made by the Federal
Reserve System or otherwise beyond the control of Fiserv, not permitting Fiserv
to give such notice.  Fiserv also agrees to give Client at least 30 days written
notice of changes to the Exhibits as may be necessary to cover any increases in
Federal Reserve System costs and charges.  The fees listed in Exhibit A-2 may be
changed annually effective on the first anniversary date of the Effective Date
of this agreement and each succeeding Effective Date anniversary upon sixty (60)
days advance notice to Client.  Each change shall be limited to the change in
the U.S. Department of Labor, Consumer Price Index ("CPI") for All
Urban Households in San Jose Metropolitan Area for the most recent 12-month
period for which such information is available or three percent, whichever is
greater. Fiserv will provide Client with 60 days prior written notification of
the fee change.

3.Responsibility for Accounts.  Client shall
be responsible for balancing its accounts each business day and notifying Fiserv
promptly of any errors or discrepancies.  Provided that Client notifies Fiserv
promptly of any discrepancy in Client's accounts, Fiserv shall, at its expense,
promptly re-compute accounts affected by discrepancies solely caused by the
Fiserv Systems or provide for another mutually agreeable resolution.  Fiserv
will use its best efforts to correct errors attributable to Client or Client's
other third party providers.  Reconstruction of error conditions attributable to
Client or to third parties acting on Client's behalf will be done at prevailing
rates as set forth in Exhibit A-2.

4.Annual Histories.  Fiserv currently
maintains annual histories, where applicable, for its clients.  These histories
can be used to reconstruct Client Files in an emergency.  However, in order to
permit prompt and accurate reconstruction of accounts, Client agrees to retain
at all times and make available to Fiserv upon request the most recent data
printout(s) received from Fiserv, together with copies or other accurate and
retrievable records of all transactions to be reflected on the next consecutive
printout(s).

5.Hours of Operation.  Account Processing
Services will be available for use by Client during standard Fiserv business
hours, excluding holidays, as specified in Exhibit A-3.  Account Processing
Services may be available additional hours, during which time Client may use
Services at its option and subject to additional charges, pricing for which
shall be provided to Client on an annual basis upon Client's request.

6.Performance Standards.   Fiserv shall
perform the Services in compliance with the performance standards for the
Account Processing Services ("Performance Standards") set forth in
Exhibit A-4.  Fiserv shall not be liable for any damages or losses to Client if
the Account Processing Services are performed in accordance with the Performance
Standards and the terms of this Agreement.

7.Protection of Data.  (a) For the purpose of
compliance with applicable government regulations, Fiserv has an operations
backup center, for which Client shall be charged no additional fees as of the
Effective Date; provided that Client may be charged a fair, prorated fee to the
extent substantial changes are required by law or regulation.  Copies of
transaction files are maintained by Fiserv off premises in secured vaults.

(b) Upon Client providing access to Client Files through
Client's customers' personal computers or voice response system, Client agrees
to indemnify and hold harmless Fiserv, its officers, directors, employees, and
affiliates against any claims or actions arising out of such access to Client
Files or any Fiserv files (including the files of other Fiserv clients) or the
Fiserv System or other Fiserv systems.

8.Processing Priority.  Fiserv does not
subscribe to any processing priority; all users receive equal processing
consideration.

9.Forms and Supplies.  Client assumes and will
pay the charges for all customized forms, supplies, and delivery charges.
Custom forms ordered through Fiserv will be subject to a 15% administrative fee
for warehousing and inventory control.  Forms ordered by Client and warehoused
at Fiserv will be subject to the administrative fee set forth in Exhibit A - 2.

10.Regulatory Supervision.  By entering into this
Agreement, Fiserv agrees that regulatory agencies having authority over Client's
operations shall have the authority and responsibility provided to the
regulatory agencies pursuant to the Bank Service Corporation Act, 12 U.S.C.
1867(C) relating to services performed by contract or otherwise.

Account Processing Performance Standards

Client and Fiserv agree as follows:

1.Measurement Period.   The measurement period
applicable to these performance standards shall be one month (the
"Measurement Period") and settlement quarterly based on published
quarterly reports by Fiserv Los Angeles.

2.On-Line Availability 

a.   Fiserv's standard of performance shall be on-line
availability of the Fiserv System (exclusive of failures of telecommunications
and terminals) 99% of the time that it is scheduled to be so available over the
Measurement Period.  Actual on-line performance will be calculated monthly by
comparing the number of hours that the Fiserv System was scheduled to be
operational on an on-line basis exclusive of preventive maintenance and
scheduled maintenance with the number of hours, or a portion thereof, it was
actually operational on an on-line basis, as further defined below.  Preventive
maintenance will not be scheduled during normal online processing hours.
Preventive maintenance will be performed on only mission critical equipment
during on-line processing hours.  Downtime caused by reasons beyond Fiserv's
control will not be considered in the statistics.

b.  Fiserv agrees to apply credits to Client's account for
Fiserv's failure to achieve the on-line availability standard of 99% in any
given month in accordance with the schedule set forth below:

Item Processing Description of Services

	Proof:  On each business day (excluding Saturdays,
Sundays, and holidays), Client will deliver to the Fiserv Processing Center,
checks and other items deposited to accounts with Client. Client will provide
extra deliveries in support of proof operations for peak day processing.  Peak
day processing is defined as any day when Client's volume is expected to exceed
20% of daily average volume of the previous months volume divided by the number
of business days in the previous month.

	Client will contract with and pay for a courier, to pick
up and deliver all work between Client and Fiserv.  Both parties will mutually
agree upon the times of pick-up and delivery.  If Fiserv has not received the
items from Client locations by the agreed upon delivery times, Fiserv may, in
its sole discretion and without liability, delay the processing of such items
until the next business day.  Fiserv will contact Client's after-hours contact
and apprise said contact of the situation.  Client agrees to provide an after-
hours contact and update that contact should there be any change in Client
personnel.

	Client agrees to MICR encode documents to meet Fiserv
requirements (ABA and Account Numbers and Tran-codes)

	Client is responsible for microfilming all items
submitted to Fiserv.

	Client agrees that all transactional entries, involving
tellers' cash tickets, general ledger entries, or loan entries shall be in
balance, and that Fiserv may return to Client, unprocessed, any transactional
entries that are not in balance.

	Client agrees to segregate all over-the-counter items
into batches not to exceed 3" in depth and to identify each such batch with an
appropriate batch header, which batch header shall meet written requirements
provided by Fiserv. Client further agrees to segregate all items by type (i.e.,
single deposit items will be batched separately from multiple deposit items),
and to provide a total for each single batch.

	Client agrees to include a batch manifest for each bag of
work submitted to Fiserv.

	From the items submitted to Fiserv, Fiserv shall retrieve
such "on-us" information as may be necessary for the proper accounting of the
items and shall transmit this information, through telephone lines or by such
other means as Fiserv may, from time to time, deem appropriate to Client's data
processor for data processing.

	Client authorizes Fiserv to create ledger holdover
entries, deposit corrections, or such other entries to balance transactions,
except for those transactions outlined in subsection 1.d. above, as may be
necessary to the efficient processing of the items.

	After Fiserv has completed the process of retrieving and
transmitting to Client's data processor the information necessary for data
processing, all over-the-counter items not drawn against Client shall be
forwarded for collection to such correspondent banks as Client may designate
from time to time in writing to Fiserv.

	All items drawn against Client and those items internally
generated shall be returned to Client or held by Fiserv in accordance with
Client's written instructions.

2.Encoding:  Fiserv will encode the dollar amount
on all items needing encoding and presented to Fiserv as part of the Proof
function described above.  Fiserv may encode additional fields, such as account
numbers, deposit ticket totals, or other items as specified by Client.  Any such
encoding will be according to terms agreed to by Fiserv.  In no
event will Fiserv be liable for losses to Client due to encoding errors if
Client has not materially satisfied all of its obligations set forth in Section
1 above.  Should Fiserv's encoding services fail to meet the performance
standard for proof of deposit set forth in Exhibit B-3, and Client incurs a
potential loss due to an encoding error, Client shall use its best efforts to
collect the amount in question from its customer prior to submitting a claim for
damages to Fiserv.

3.Exception Item Processing: Fiserv will either
reject or pay items listed on the appropriate report, in accordance with written
instructions, by Client's authorized officer or employee. The name of Client's
officer or employee giving such instruction shall be noted on the item or on
such other record as Fiserv may establish, together with the nature of the
instruction. If Client has not instructed Fiserv regarding the disposition of
any exception item drawn against Client by the agreed upon time each day, then
Fiserv shall return it through the presentment chain to the depository bank or
institution. Instructions to Fiserv on disposition of items that are received
after the agreed upon deadline or are changed can result in a late charge as
specified in this Exhibit. Should Fiserv's exception item processing fail to
meet the performance standard for exception item processing set forth in Exhibit
B-3, and Client incurs a potential loss due to an error, Client shall use its
best efforts to collect the amount in question from its customer prior to
submitting a claim for damages to Fiserv.

 4.Statement Fine Sorting: [All checks,
drafts, and other orders for the payment of money drawn against accounts at
Client that are to be stored by Fiserv, will be retained by Fiserv until the end
of each Client's checking account cycle. The items will be sorted and made
available for Client pick-up by 12:00 p.m. on day of cycle.  The checks will be
sorting in account order based on the account number of the checks sorted.
Rejects will be made available to Client for the sort.  Any paid items from that
day's return processing will be made available the next day for Client.  

5.Inclearings:  Client authorizes Fiserv to
receive its inclearing items daily from the Federal Reserve Bank. Fiserv will
balance the inclearing items to their cash letters, capture the items on
magnetic media, microfilm or image scan and transmit the account information to
Client's data processor. Fiserv will also pull out for further handling the
appropriate items for exception handling or scrutinizing, and deliver the items
to bulk file storage or to Client for further processing.

6.Courier Service: The parties hereto acknowledge
that it will be necessary to make arrangements for the transport of items,
records, and other data from Client to Fiserv and from the Federal Reserve or
Correspondent bank to Fiserv. After Fiserv has provided the Item Processing
Services, selected items, records, and data must be transported from Fiserv to
Client and the Federal Reserve. The parties further acknowledge that the cost of
such transportation shall be Client's sole responsibility.

	Client has the right to make provision for its own
courier service to provide the needed transportation as set forth in subsection
1.a. above.  Should Client not make provision for such courier service, or
should Client request that Fiserv make arrangements for such courier service,
then Fiserv, for Client benefit, shall make arrangements for such a courier
service. Client must notify Fiserv to provide such courier service no less than
30 days prior to the date that Fiserv is to begin providing Item Processing
Services.

	Client shall pay Fiserv for any and all charges,
expenses, or costs incurred by Fiserv in contracting for said courier
service.

	Client understands and agrees that Fiserv shall not have
or assume any liability or responsibility for such items, records, or data until
they reach Fiserv premises and that Fiserv shall have no further responsibility
or liability for them after they leave Fiserv premises.

	The courier service shall at all times be deemed Client's
independent contractor, and shall not, at any time or under any circumstances,
be deemed Fiserv's agent or employee, regardless of whether said courier
service, at any pertinent time herein, is affiliated with or employed by Fiserv.

	Fiserv will monitor and track deliveries for Client.
Should a delivery be missing, Fiserv will notify Client promptly through
appropriate channels.  In the event of a dispute as to the proper delivery of
any records, Fiserv's records of delivery will be accepted as the undisputed
record of delivery.

7.Conversion Services:  Fiserv will provide
conversion services based on the information provided by Client during the due
diligence process.  Following Client's initial conversion to Fiserv Services,
any additional requests will be submitted to Fiserv at least 90 days prior to
the required implementation date.  An estimate for the additional conversion
services will be provided.  The implementation time for the conversion will be
delayed if Client requires more than 3 days to approve or decline the conversion
estimate. Client also acknowledges that Fiserv must approve any changes to the
MICR line and/or Account Number structure for Client prior to proceeding with a
conversion.  Fiserv will make best efforts to attempt to convert new MICR line
and/or Account Number structures.  Client agrees to eliminate any non-standard
MICR line and/or Account number structure as identified during the due diligence
process from its daily capture service within 120 days after the initial
conversion date.  Client acknowledges that Fiserv may elect to charge a fee as
specified on this Exhibit, such as the Special Statements Fee listed in Exhibit
B-2, for all non-standard items processed in the service.  Consistent with the
terms of the performance standards stated in this Exhibit, Client acknowledges
that Fiserv may not be able to achieve the stated performance standards on
accounts, transactions, or services involving non-standard MICR lines and/or
Account Number structures. In the event that the Account Number appearing on the
statement does not equal the Account Number on the MICR line, Fiserv will not be
responsible for any performance standards relating to statement preparation and
rendition. 

Initial Client conversion is based on the IP Business
Assumptions List obtained during the due diligence process.  This work includes
an inclearings, POD and bulk file sort pattern.  In addition, it includes a
single extraction program to support the transmission of a daily inclearings and
POD file to a host site for processing.  Sort specifications will be developed
in support of statement rendition services.  Standard reporting will be provided
to Client to include a daily transaction report sorted in transaction and
account order, recaps of transmissions and cash letters, and a daily cash report
if required.

	Research Services: Fiserv will provide research
and photocopy services upon request by Client.  Upon receipt from Client of a
request for subpoena work or other significant or voluminous research work,
Fiserv will attempt to provide Client with an estimate of the time required and
corresponding cost to complete the request prior to commencing the research
services.  Client must have selected an archival storage service with Fiserv to
provide Research Services.

	Data Transmission: Client and Fiserv acknowledge
and agree that Client has separately contracted with Client's data processor to
provide data processing services for Client and that Fiserv shall have no
responsibility for the timeliness or quality of the service provided by Client's
data processor, unless such data processor is Fiserv. Client's data processor
shall deliver directly to Client all reports generated from the data transmitted
by Fiserv.  Fiserv shall have no responsibility for the timeliness of such

silo, average response time for these for a single query is two minutes or less.
Long Term Archive response time for items are available the next day.

11.Image Signature Verification:  All designated
inclearing items drawn against accounts at Client, which are to be captured by
Fiserv will be processed through the Automated Signature Verification Technology
to provide Client with a scoring of the paid item signature as compared to the
reference signatures.  It is the client's responsibility to maintain correct
reference signatures and account rules on the technology.  Client acknowledges
