This Amendment shall be effective as of the date last signed below (the “Effective Date”).

CSG and Customer agree as follows as of the Effective Date:

The Check Recovery Service also receives files of unsuccessfully recovered ACH returns and paper check returns from Vendor and updates CCS accordingly.  CSG acknowledges and agrees that it will not initiate communication with Connected Subscribers to perform the service of Check Recovery Vendor’s re-presentment and recovery of ACH returns and paper check returns without Customer’s permission.  The foregoing shall not prevent CSG from having the Check Recovery Vendor perform the services provided herein.

	
 
	
2.
	
Requirements. CSG will provide integration to the Check Recovery Vendor’s platform enabling the Check Recovery Service.  Select ACH returns and paper check returns will be sent to Vendor for recovery processing.

Applicable Customer determined fees, not to exceed state regulations, will be assessed by the Check Recovery Vendor to the bank accounts of Customer’s customers as part of the Check Recovery Service.

CSG MASTER SUBSCRIBER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AGREEMENT

BETWEEN

CSG SYSTEMS, INC.

AND

DISH NETWORK L.L.C.

 

This FIFTY-THIRD AMENDMENT (this “53rd Amendment”) is made by and between CSG Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CSG”), and DISH Network L.L.C., a Colorado limited liability company (“Customer”).  This 53rd Amendment shall be effective as of the date last signed below (the “Effective Date”).  CSG and Customer entered into a certain CSG Master Subscriber Management System Agreement (Document #2301656) effective as of January 1, 2010, (together with all previous amendments thereto, the “Agreement”), and now desire to further amend the Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this 53rd Amendment.  If the terms and conditions set forth in this 53rd Amendment shall be in conflict with the Agreement, the terms and conditions of this 53rd Amendment shall control.  Any terms in initial capital letters or all capital letters used as a defined term but not defined in this 53rd Amendment shall have the meaning set forth in the Agreement.  Upon execution of this 53rd Amendment by the parties, any subsequent reference to the Agreement between the parties shall mean the Agreement as amended by this 53rd Amendment.  Except as amended by this 53rd Amendment, the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect according to their terms.

CSG has developed a new payment gateway service with less dependency on such third party services and Customer desires to discontinue its use of the CSG Payment Gateway Service to instead use the new payment gateway service described in this 53rd Amendment (the “New Payment Gateway Service”).  

 

THEREFORE, CSG and Customer agree as follows as of the Effective Date:

 

	
 
	
1.
	
   Customer desires to use, commencing on the Effective Date and expiring with the Agreement unless otherwise terminated as provided in the Agreement or this 53rd Amendment (the “Payment Gateway Term”), and CSG shall provide to Customer, during the Payment Gateway Term, the New Payment Gateway Service as described herein.  As a result, SCHEDULE A, “Services” of the Agreement is hereby AMENDED to add “New Payment Gateway Service” to the list of Services and to add EXHIBIT A-4(i), “New Payment Gateway Service,” attached hereto.  CSG and Customer acknowledge that CSG will migrate Customer from the CSG Payment Gateway Service to the New Payment Gateway Service in phases.  CSG and Customer agree that until Full Migration (as defined below), the terms of the 29th Amendment shall be applicable to Customer’s use of the CSG Payment Gateway Service and the terms of this 53rd Amendment shall be applicable to Customer’s use of the New Payment Gateway Service.  

 

	
 
	
2.

In the event the parties are unable to agree, CSG shall no longer be obligated to provide and Customer shall no longer be obligated to use the New Payment Gateway Service.

Note 7: Following commencement of the provision of the New Payment Gateway Service, CSG shall continue to provide and Customer shall continue to pay for the New Payment Gateway Service until the earlier of (a) termination or expiration of the Agreement (and any applicable Termination Assistance as provided in the Agreement) or (b) termination of the New Payment Gateway Service by either party in accordance with the terms of the Agreement or this 53rd Amendment.

EXHIBIT A-4(i)

 

New Payment Gateway Service

 

1. New Payment Gateway Service.  The New Payment Gateway Service facilitates the routing of credit card transactions (Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express) and debit card transactions (Visa and MasterCard),   to select third party processors.  The New Payment Gateway Service supports one-time and recurring credit card and debit card payments.  The New Payment Gateway Service is an additional feature beyond currently supported Credit Card Processing and Electronic Payment services and processes. Customer will have access to an online portal, or similar means, to process credits and refunds, perform transaction research and download reports.

 

2.  Requirements. Allowable payment types for the New Payment Gateway Service are MasterCard, VISA, American Express and Discover.  Customer is responsible for selecting a card processing merchant and establishing a merchant agreement with a CSG-approved (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld by CSG) card processor (each, a “Card Processor”).  The Card Processor will assign all applicable merchant ID numbers.  Customer must communicate their merchant ID information to CSG prior to using the New Payment Gateway Service.  Customer is responsible for all credit card and debit card related fees passed through or assessed by merchant banks, card processors, acquirers, issuers, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, or any other entity involved in the processing of associated transactions.  Fees may include, but are not limited to, interchange fees, assessment fees, per transaction fees, network security fees, switch fees, and administrative fees.
