                                    RECITALS

     WHEREAS, the parties entered into the Agreement in order to govern the
relationship of the parties with respect to credit card settlement transactions
and sponsorship; and

     WHEREAS, the parties wish to amend Section 3.1 to add a new Section 3.1(h)
and to Amend Sections 8.1 and 8.2 of the Agreement;

     WHEREAS, the parties wish that the remaining terms of the Agreement remain
the same.

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual
covenants herein contained, the parties agree to amend the Agreement as follows:

1.   Article III, Section 3.1(c) is hereby amended to read in its entirety as
     follows:

     "(c) [****]

[****] Represents material which has been redacted and filed separately with
the Commission pursuant to a request for confidential treatment pursuant to
Rule 406 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
<PAGE>
2.   Article III, Section 3.1 is hereby amended by adding the following section
as a new Section 3.1(h):

     "(h) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, so long as all of the
     following are true with respect to Merchant or Merchant Account, Bank
     agrees that, except as required by the Rules, Bank shall neither terminate
     nor make any change with respect to the discount or reserve of said
     Merchant or Merchant Account that will have an adverse effect on the
     Merchant or Merchant Account without the prior written consent of
     IPAYMENT:

          "(i) The Merchant Account is not in an Association monitoring program;

          "(ii) The Merchant Account is not engaged in, or aiding and abetting,
     any illegal activity or fraud;

          "(iii) The Merchant Account is not processing Transactions where
     products are delivered or services rendered more than ninety (90) days (on
     the average, based upon Transactions of the immediately preceding three (3)
     months) following the date of the Transaction; and

          "(iv) Either (A) the Merchant Account is processing under $[****] per
     month (based upon an average of the immediately prior six months'
     Transactions), or (B) with respect to Merchant Accounts with an average
     processing of $[****] or more per month, in Bank's sole judgment the
     Merchant Account is neither experiencing significant financial
     deterioration nor is there any severe macroeconomic event causing an
     instability within merchant processing of a specific merchant or category
     of merchants in which the Merchant Account is included.

          "In the event Bank decides to terminate or make any such adverse
     change with respect to a Merchant Account with an average processing of
     $[****] or more per month solely because, in Bank's judgment, the
     conditions set forth in subparagraph (iv)(B) above are inapplicable, Bank
     shall first give IPAYMENT written notice of Bank's decision and IPAYMENT
     may, within three (3) business days of receipt of such notice, deposit into
     the IPAYMENT Reserve Account an amount equal to not less than [****]
     percent [****] of the then approved monthly processing limit for that
     specific Merchant Account, in which case Bank agrees to take no further
     action with respect to that Merchant Account solely for the reasons set
     forth in subparagraph (iv)(B) above.

[****] Represents material which has been redacted and filed separately with
the Commission pursuant to a request for confidential treatment pursuant to
Rule 406 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

          "Notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary herein, Bank
     covenants and agrees that until the termination of this Agreement, Bank
     will continue to operate its business and to maintain its relationship with
     IPAYMENT in significantly the same manner it has been operating its
     business as of the date of this Amendment, and that Bank will not
     significantly change any of its existing underwriting guidelines, policies
     or procedures without IPAYMENT's prior consent, which consent shall not be
     unreasonably withheld or delayed, including, but not limited to (1) changes
     in policies relating to the closing of Merchant Accounts, (2) increasing
     IPAYMENT's reserve requirements currently in place, (3) increasing any fees
     or amounts currently being paid by IPAYMENT to Bank for sponsorship and
     processing (except as such fees or amounts are imposed on Bank by a third
     party and passed through to IPAYMENT pursuant to this Agreement), (4)
     changes in criteria for withholding IPAYMENT's funds, (5) amending the
     existing underwriting guidelines or underwriting procedures, or (6) taking
     any other actions or failing to take any actions which are not consistent
     with the way Bank and IPAYMENT conduct their business as of the date of
     this Amendment. Each party agrees that it will in good faith seek to
     resolve any differences that may arise between the parties under this
     Agreement to the extent the same are not expressly covered by this
     Agreement, including this Amendment. Bank acknowledges that IPAYMENT has
     relied on this statement in entering into this Amendment and that Bank's
     material breach of this covenant may cause material harm to the business of

     follows:

     "8.2. Termination. Notwithstanding Section 8.1 the parties will have the
     following rights and obligations:

     "(a) Ability to Perform. If Visa or MCI prohibits IPAYMENT from providing,
     or prohibits Bank from allowing IPAYMENT to provide, the services set forth
     in this Agreement, or if Bank becomes insolvent or is no longer an
     Acquiring Member of Visa or MCI, this Agreement will automatically and
     immediately terminate. In addition, Bank may terminate this Agreement upon
     ninety (90) days' written notice to IPAYMENT in the event Bank becomes
     subject to any change in a statute, law, rule, regulation, policy or other
     official pronouncement of any state or federal government entity regulatory
     agency or of VISA or MCI which would prohibit Bank from continuing the
     business described in this Agreement.

     "(b) Obligations Upon Expiration or Termination. Immediately following the

     Acquiring Member at no expense to IPAYMENT other than the actual cost of
     copying, shipping, supplies, and any related Association, Network and
     Processor fees. Pending such assignment, the rights and

<PAGE>
     obligations of the parties (including, without limitation, the rights and
