You may use the Online Service to make one-time or repeating payments to companies,
merchants, individuals or Chase Loans or Credit Accounts, or to transfer funds between your
eligible accounts held by us or between an eligible account held by us and an External

Service to send instructions to us to make payments or transfers through the Online Service
you agree to the following terms and conditions set forth in this Addendum. You agree that

Online Service may be subject to terms and conditions in agreements separate from this
Addendum that apply to such other services including, but not limited to, the online wire

Note: Any transfer made from any of your savings accounts by using the Online Service is a
restricted transfer subject to certain limitations. Please refer to our Deposit Account
Agreement or other terms and conditions governing your account for full details. Additionally,
External Transfers made from any line of credit account will be treated as an advance on such
line of credit, and in addition to accruing interest under the terms of your line of credit

Notwithstanding the foregoing, for Investment Accounts, Sections 1.2(B)(iv) and 1.2(C)(iv) also
apply.
D. Service Fees
Unless otherwise noted in your account agreement, we do not charge a monthly service fee

Instructions that overdraws your account or exceeds your Chase credit card limit, we may
assess a fee or charge interest in accordance with the terms of your Deposit Account
Agreement, Cardmember agreement, or other applicable agreement. We are not responsible
for any payment or transfer request if there isn’t enough money in the designated Pay From
or From Account or if the payment request exceeds your credit card limit.

Recurring payments and transfers that are for the same fixed amount each month will be
sent on the specified calendar day, or on the following Business Day if the regular Send On

Transfer date falls on a non-Business Day (for transfers). Repeating payments and transfers
will be deducted from your Pay From account or From Account, or charged to your Chase
credit card, on the Send On date or Transfer date, as applicable. In order to authorize a
Recurring payment or transfer, you agree to have means to print a copy of your authorization
for your records. If you do not have a printer, you agree to continue to authorize a Recurring
transaction on a transaction-by- transaction basis until you have means of printing a copy of
your authorization for your records.
If you wish to cancel a Recurring payment or transfer, you should cancel your transaction
online. Future Dated or Recurring Internal Transfers may be Cancelled before 11:59 p.m. ET
the Business Day before the Send On date or Transfer date. Future dated Payments to Chase
Loan or Credit Accounts may be Cancelled until the Cutoff Time on the Payment date. If you
order us to stop a Recurring payment or transfer three (3) Business Days or more before the
Send On date or Transfer date, and we do not do so, we will be liable to you for those losses
or damages as provided by law. If for any reason you cannot access the Online Service, you
may also call or write online customer service at the phone number or address set forth in
the paragraph entitled "Your Liability for Unauthorized Transfers or Payments". If you call, we
may also require you to present your request in writing within fourteen (14) days after you
call. Repeating transfers are not available for Investment transfers.
Some Chase Loan and Credit Accounts will allow you to set up automatic payments.
Automatic payments differ from Recurring payments in that automatic payments are
triggered based on the associated billing date and the payment amount may vary each
month. Terms and conditions for automatic payments to Chase Loan and Credit Accounts will
be presented to you at the time you set up the payments.

1.2 Transfers
A. General Terms Applicable to Transfers
You authorize us to charge your designated From Account for all transfers of funds that you
initiate and you agree to have sufficient funds or available credit in your From Account on the
Transfer date for each such transfer you schedule. Except with regard to certain Transfers to
and from Investment Accounts, if there are insufficient available funds, including funds in any
linked account used for Overdraft Protection, (or available credit) to cover a Current Day
transfer, we will not retry the transaction and the transfer will be immediately rejected.
In the case of Future Dated transfers (excluding Autosave Transfers), if sufficient funds are
not in your account (inclusive of any funds in a linked account used for Overdraft Protection)
on the Transfer date, we will automatically try to debit your account up to two (2) more times
on each of the three (3) succeeding Business Days. For these attempts, a status of “Funds
Needed” will appear online. After the final attempt, the transfer request will be Cancelled. A
status of “Funding Failed” will appear online. We will send a message advising you of each
failed attempt to transfer from your From Account.
For Investment Accounts, you can set a future Transfer date even if there are insufficient
funds in the Investment Account. On the Transfer date, any available funds will be
transferred,even if the amount is below the requested Transfer, which will mean that the
cash balance in the Investment Account will be zero ($0). You will be notified if your available
cash balance is below your Transfer amount. If your account has a zero ($0) balance as of the
Transfer date, the Transfer will be rejected.
B. Internal Transfers
Internal Transfers can be used to transfer funds between your eligible accounts held by us, or
to make a payment from an eligible account held by us to a Chase Loan or Credit Account. To
make Internal Transfers, you must have at least two eligible accounts with us between which
you may transfer money. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the eligible accounts from which a
payment can be made to a Chase Loan or Credit Account do not include a Chase home equity
line of credit or other line of credit account. We reserve the right to determine eligibility and
to restrict categories of recipients to whom Internal Transfers may be made in our sole
discretion.
Transfer Limits: To protect your account, we place a daily dollar limit on Internal
Transfers sent to or from your eligible Chase accounts, even if your available balance is
higher than the daily limit. However, we may allow transactions that exceed your limits
or temporarily reduce your limits without notice, for security purposes. We may refuse
to process any transaction that exceeds the applicable limits or to protect the security of
your account or the transfer system. You may make Internal Transfers up to (A) your
available balance plus any amount in your overdraft protection account; or (B) your
credit limit, to the extent applicable. If you have selected a home equity line of credit
secured by Texas homestead property as your From Account, the minimum allowed
through Transfers is $4,000.00, to the extent eligible. Current Day Internal Transfer
Instructions begin to process immediately and cannot be Cancelled. If your From
Account is a Chase home equity line of credit, to the extent eligible, you may make
Internal Transfers up to a maximum amount of (A) $200,000 daily; or (B) $500,000 daily,
if you are a Private Banking customer.

paid on the same calendar day of each transfer period, or on the next Business Day if

Repeating transfer(s) from deposit or prepaid accounts held by us) will be deducted
from your From Account on the Transfer date.

Autosave Feature: You can set up automatic transfers from your checking account to
your savings account, investment account, or to other types of accounts that we may
specify from time to time.We may offer certain Autosave features which, if used by you,
give us discretion, within limits set by you, to make periodic transfers based on factors
such as your account balance and spending patterns, and you agree to regularly
monitor such transfers closely and change or cancel them as you determine necessary.
Use the Chase Mobile app or chase.com to set up, review, change or cancel your
transfers. Except as specifically set forth herein or where the law requires a different
standard, we are not liable for any errors, losses or damages in connection with any
transfer of funds or failure to transfer funds under any Autosave feature that you select,
for any reason, including system outages or defects. In particular, we will not be liable
for any interest, gains or dividends you might have earned or not earned in any account
as a result of your use of Autosave.

recipients to whom External Transfers may be made in our sole discretion.
Transfer Limits: To protect your account, we place a daily dollar limit on External
Transfers sent to or from your eligible Chase accounts, even if your available balance is
higher than the daily limit. However, we may allow transactions that exceed your limits

Accounts, Transfers to or from External Accounts may be made in amounts of up to the
daily maximum noted in the chart below for your applicable account segment in the

the day they post and are viewable in the External Account. When Instructions are
received after the Cutoff Time, funds will be posted to, and viewable in, the bank
account as of 5:01 PM ET that day. The funds will be available in the External
Account at or about 11:59 PM ET on the day they post and are viewable in the
External Account. Regardless of whether Instructions are received at or
before/after the Cutoff Time, the Investment Account cash balance will be
immediately reduced by the amount of the Transfer and no longer be
available for withdrawal or trading.
2.
4.
Transfer instructions relating to External Accounts and the transmission and issuance of
data related to such instructions shall be received pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement and the rules of the National Automated Clearing House Association
("NACHA") and the applicable automated clearing house ("Regional ACH") (collectively,
the "Rules") and you and we agree to be bound by such Rules as in effect from time to
time. In accordance with such Rules, any credit to your deposit or prepaid account held
by us, or your External Account shall be provisional until such credit has been finally
settled by us or the third party institution which holds your External Account, as the
case may be. You acknowledge that you have received notice of this requirement and of
the fact that if we do not receive final settlement for a transfer for any reason, we shall
charge back the amount of such transfer to the Transfer To or From Account (as
applicable) or any other of your accounts or claim a refund from you.We reserve the
right at any time to delay the availability of funds transferred into your deposit account
via a debit from another account pending settlement or until such time as those
transactions cannot be reversed in accordance with the Rules or applicable law.

1.3 Payment Services
A. General Terms Applicable to Payments
Your responsibilities: You authorize us to remove funds from your designated Pay From
account for all payments that you initiate and you agree to have sufficient available
funds on the Send On date or Payment date for each such payment you schedule.
Please note that if you have Chase Overdraft Protection for your Pay From account,
available funds in the account that you use for overdraft protection are included in the
determination of available funds for the Service. If there are insufficient available funds
to cover a Current Day payment, we will not retry the payment and it will be
immediately rejected. If sufficient funds are not in your account to cover a Current Day
payment, we will not retry the transaction and the payment will be immediately
rejected. In the case of Future Dated payment, if sufficient funds are not in your account
on the Send On or Payment date we may reject the request, or accept the request and
process the payment for delivery (even if such payment processing causes you to
exceed your credit limit or overdraw your account). In the alternative, if sufficient
available credit or funds are not in your account on the Send On date or Payment date,
we will automatically try to debit your account up to two (2) more times on each of the
three (3) succeeding Business Days. For these attempts, a status of "Funds Needed" will
appear online. After the final attempt, the payment request will be Cancelled. A status of
"Funding Failed" will appear. We will provide updates on the status of your transaction
in real time in the Payment Activity page on Chase online or the Chase mobile
application. You agree that we may, at our option, follow your Instructions to make
payments to a Payee, even though a charge to or a debit from your Pay From account
may cause you to exceed your credit limit, or bring about or increase an overdraft. In
the event of an overdraft to your Pay From account, we may charge any other of your
accounts for the amount of the overdraft.
1.
WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY CHARGES IMPOSED, OR ANY OTHER ACTION, BY A
PAYEE RESULTING FROM A LATE PAYMENT, INCLUDING ANY APPLICABLE FINANCE
CHARGES AND/OR LATE FEES UNLESS WE CAUSE PROCESSING DELAYS THAT CAUSE
YOUR PAYMENT TO BE LATE.
2.
Further, for Bill Payments to certain eligible healthcare providers only, you authorize us
to charge your Chase credit card for any eligible Bill Payments to certain healthcare
providers that you initiate using your Chase credit card and you agree to have sufficient
available credit balance on the Send On date or Bill Payment date for each such Bill
Payment you schedule. If your Chase credit card payment is rejected for any reason, we
will not retry the Bill Payment and you will be notified of the failed attempt to charge
your Chase credit card. You agree that we may, at our option, follow your Instructions to
make Bill Payments to a named Payee, even though a charge to your Chase credit card
may cause you to exceed your credit limit. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY OVER-
THE-CREDIT-LIMIT FEE, OR CHARGES IMPOSED OR ANY OTHER ACTION BY A PAYEE
RESULTING FROM A LATE BILLPAYMENT, INCLUDING ANY APPLICABLE FINANCE
CHARGES AND/OR LATE FEES; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT IF WE CAUSE PROCESSING
DELAYS THAT CAUSE YOUR BILL PAYMENT TO BE LATE, WE WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR
ANY LATE FEES ONLY, IN ACCORDANCE WITH OUR BILL PAY GUARANTEE.
3.
B. Bill Payments
Bill Payment can be used to make one-time or Recurring payments to companies, merchants
or individuals you have designated as a Payee to pay bills such as rent, utilities, or car
payments (sometimes referred to as the "Bill Payment" or other trade name or trademark as
determined by us from time to time). This can include us for payments to Chase Loan or
Credit Accounts. You must have an eligible checking account, AMA, or investment account (or
Chase credit card for certain healthcare payments as provided above) with us in order to
make bill payments. The eligible accounts from which a Bill Payment can be made do not
include a Chase home equity line of credit or other line of credit account, except for Chase
credit cards. We reserve the right to determine eligibility and to restrict categories of
recipients to whom Bill Payments may be made in our sole discretion.
Description of Services: To make Bill Payments, you must maintain an eligible checking
account, AMA or investment account (or Chase credit card for certain healthcare
payments as provided above) with us and designate one of your eligible accounts with
us as your Pay From account. You may select Payees located within the United States to
pay using Bill Payment, subject to our and the Payee's approval with the following
exceptions: you agree not to use Bill Payment to pay Payees to whom you are
obligated for tax payments, payments made pursuant to court orders (including
court-ordered amounts for alimony or child support), fines, payments to loan
sharks, gambling debts or payments otherwise prohibited by law. The minimum Bill
Payment allowed is normally $.01. The default maximum total dollar amount of all
payments is $100,000.00 in the aggregate attributable to any Business Day. We may
modify this limit in our sole discretion at your request, and you acknowledge that a
modified limit may not be reflected in these Terms. To use Bill Payments you must
provide sufficient information online to us to properly identify your Payees, direct your
payment and permit the Payee to identify you as the payment source upon receipt of a
payment. You must complete all required fields with accurate information, as directed
by screen messages. By providing us with the names and account information of those
Payees to whom you wish us to direct payment, you authorize us to follow the
Instructions that we receive through Bill Payments. You further authorize us to update
or change any of your Payee information (including but not limited to changes to
account information, Payee name and mailing address) as requested or provided by
your Payee, the U.S. Post Office or pursuant to any updates or changes through other
tools and resources we may use from time to time to effectuate the Bill Payment. When
we receive a payment Instruction (for the current or a future date), we will send funds to
the Payee on your behalf, from the funds in your Pay From account or charged to your
Chase credit card. You authorize us to charge your designated Pay From account or
Chase credit card, for all payments that you authorize through the Bill Payments. We
and any agent used by us in connection with the Bill Payment Service is authorized to
prepare Drafts drawn on your Pay From account, charge your Chase credit card, and/or
electronically debit your Pay From account for the purpose of making payments. We are
authorized to accept any Draft drawn on the Pay From account on presentment and
charge the Pay From account even though it does not bear your signature where such
Draft has been issued as part of Bill Payments. Such Drafts may originate from us or any
financial institution in the United States used by us or any of our agents.
1.
Because your payment Instructions are transmitted to us on your computer or mobile
device, the payment will not be sent to your Payee with the Payee's payment stub.
2.
Payments received without the payment stub are sometimes processed at a different
location. Some Payees may take longer to post the payment to your account if the
payment stub is not included with the payment, although federal regulations may limit
certain creditors (such as credit card issuers) to a period of up to five (5) days. For this
reason, we recommend that you contact your Payees to ensure that you have the right
address and that you schedule payments in sufficient time to allow for your payment to
be sent to your Payee and the payment to be posted.
Delivery Method (excluding Chase credit card Bill Payments): We remit two types of
payments on your behalf to your Payees - electronic funds transfer and paper check,
depending on your Payees determined method of receiving payments. The Delivery
Method and lead time expected for each type of payment your Payee will ordinarily
receive will be indicated on screen when your payment is scheduled.
The Delivery Method for a Payee is subject to change. If a Payee no longer accepts
electronic payments, payments to that Payee will be delivered by paper check and the
Send On Date will be changed to five (5) Business Days before the Deliver By date for all
subsequent payments and if the Payee provides us with sufficient notice, for the most
current payment. If a Payee begins accepting electronic payments, payments to that
Payee will be processed electronically and the Send On date will be changed accordingly
for all subsequent payments. In case of payment delivery errors, we will modify the
payment delivery method accordingly, i.e.,, if an electronic payment is undeliverable or
Payee cannot accept an electronic payment due to a temporary issue, the payment may
be resubmitted by check. We will notify you via e-mail if the Delivery Method indicated
for your scheduled payments changes to a slower Delivery Method, i.e., one that
increases the delivery time of your payment; otherwise, you will not be notified of
Delivery Method changes. Once an electronic payment is indicated on screen as
“Processed”, we no longer control or receive updates on the payment status and you will
need to contact your Payee for further information. Please note that, in some situations,
if a payment is scheduled to be sent electronically to a Payee who can no longer process
payments using the Delivery Method in which it was sent, then that payment may be
late and we will not be responsible for any associated late charges that might be
incurred as a result. Late payments arising from changes in your Payee's Delivery
Method are explicitly excluded from coverage of our Guarantee as we have no control
over your Payee's acceptance of or changes to a particular Delivery Method.
While it is anticipated that most transactions will be delivered by the Deliver By date, it is
understood that due to circumstances beyond our control, particularly delays due to
internal fraud review, or in handling and posting payments by slow responding
companies or financial institutions, some transactions may take a few days longer to be
credited by your Payee to your Payee account. FOR THIS REASON, YOU NEED TO SELECT
A DELIVER BY DATE WHICH IS SUFFICIENTLY IN ADVANCE OF THE ACTUAL DUE DATE
(NOT THE LATE DATE) OF YOUR PAYMENT OBLIGATION TO ENSURE THAT YOUR
PAYMENT ARRIVES ON OR BEFORE YOUR DUE DATE AND NOT AFTER THE DUE DATE OR
DURING THE GRACE PERIOD.
3.
Additional Terms Applicable to Only Variable Automatic Bill Payments: You may also set
up variable automatic bill payments for select Payees participating in the e-Bills Service.
4.
Variable automatic bill payments differ from Recurring payments in that variable
automatic payments are triggered based on the associated billing date and/or the bill
due date, as set up by you, and the payment amount may vary each month. While it is
anticipated that most variable automatic bill payments will be delivered by the Deliver
By date you set, it is understood that due to circumstances beyond our control,
particularly when your Payee is late in providing the e-Bill and/or we receive the e-Bill
too close to, on, or after the bill’s due date, WE MAY BE UNABLE TO PAY THAT BILL AND
YOU WILL HAVE TO MAKE ALTERNATIVE PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS DIRECTLY WITH THE
PAYEE. These terms apply in addition to the other terms applicable to Recurring
payments in this Section 1.3(B), and additional terms for variable automatic bill
payments may be presented to you at the time you set up the variable automatic bill
payment.
Canceling Bill Payments: You may cancel any Pending or Funded bill payment if you do
so no later than the Cutoff Time, on the Send On Date. Funds will be returned to your
Pay From account by the following Business Day. You may not stop a bill payment after
the Cutoff Time has passed.
For Chase credit card Bill Payments only, the Cutoff Times do not apply and you may
cancel the payment any time before it is sent.
5.
C. Payments to Chase Loans or Credit Accounts
Payments to Chase Mortgage or Auto Loan or Lease Accounts:
Only Business Days may be chosen as Payment dates for Chase Loan or Credit Accounts
and Instructions must be received by us by the Cutoff Time to receive credit on that
same Business Day; Instructions received on any non-Business Day or after the Cutoff
Time on any Business Day will be processed on the next Business Day.
i.
Payments to Chase Home Equity or Personal Loan or Line of Credit Accounts:
Same day payments using a Chase deposit account made before the Cutoff Time as
stated above on any day will be credited with the date the payment is submitted. Only
Business Days may be chosen as Payment dates for Future Dated payments or
payments made using a non-Chase checking account and Instructions must be received
by us by the Cutoff Time as stated above to receive credit on that same Business Day;
Instructions received on any non-Business Day or after the Cutoff Time on any Business
Day will be processed on the next Business Day.
Payments to a Chase Loan or Credit Account from an account held by us may be made
in amounts of up to the available balance in your Pay From account (plus any available
balance in any associated overdraft protection account) per day.
ii.
Note: Payments to Chase credit card or student loan accounts have separate terms that will
be provided at the time Instructions are provided by you.
D. Bill Payments to Certain Healthcare Providers
Provided that you maintain an eligible checking account, AMA or investment account
with us and designate one of your eligible accounts with us as your Pay From account,
you may also have the option to use one of your Chase credit cards to pay certain
healthcare providers listed in our Bill Pay directory. Your Chase credit card will be shown
as one of the payment options if a healthcare provider you are trying to pay is eligible to
receive Chase credit card payments. You may be able to schedule a one-time, future-
dated, or recurring Bill Payment using a Chase credit card for certain healthcare
providers and may cancel any such payment at any time before it is sent. Sent Chase
credit card payments will be authorized immediately so you will not be able to cancel
any payment after it has been sent. These terms apply in addition to and, in the event of
conflict shall supersede, the other terms applicable to the Bill Payment Service.
For Business Accounts: Even if the dual control function has been turned on for the Bill
Payment Service, payments to healthcare providers using a Chase credit card will not be
submitted for approval.
E. Duplicate Payments
If you submit a duplicate Bill Payment request, an error message may be displayed on
our website but you may choose to bypass the message and schedule the payment. If
you submit a duplicate payment to Chase Loan or Credit Account, an error message
may be displayed and such duplicate payments may not be permitted. No error
message will be displayed for duplicate payments made through different methods and
the payments will be processed as normal.
F. Stale Dated Payments
Paper checks which may be issued to your Payees are not negotiable after the
designated period noted on the check, usually 90 days. Occasionally, paper check
payments are not cashed by your Payee within the negotiable period. When this
happens, we will notify you and credit your Pay From account. We have no liability to
you, your Payee or any other party for refusing payment on any check that remains
outstanding after the end of the negotiable period.
G. Merchant or Payee Limitation
We reserve the right to refuse to pay any Payee whom you may designate for a
payment. We will notify you promptly if we decide to refuse to pay a Payee designated
by you. This notification is not required if you attempt to pay tax or court related
payments or payments to Payees located outside the United States, each of which is
prohibited under this Agreement.
H. Terms Applicable to your use of the e-Bills Service for both Consumer and Business
Account
e-Bills is a feature of the Bill Payment Service that enables you to receive bills electronically
from participating Payees.
Electronic Communications/Payee Terms. By activating e-Bills, you agree to abide by
the terms and conditions stated in this Section to get e-Bills, and to get other related
communications electronically. By activating e-Bills, you will be required to agree to each
Payee's terms and conditions, which will also include the requirement to not to receive
paper bills. For avoidance of doubt, you understand and agree that enrollment into
eBills will terminate the provision of paper statements to you by the Payee, including
any reformatted paper statements, i.e. Braille or enlarged font, that you were receiving
from the Payee, and any accommodations or exceptions will be agreed upon and made
between you and the Payee and not Chase.
1.
Limitations. You must enroll each Payee individually in e-Bills. You also acknowledge
and agree that the right to activate and receive e-Bills for each Payee is limited to one
financial institution. If you activate e-Bills for a particular Payee through us, you will no
longer receive e-Bills for that Payee through the financial institution through which
you're currently receiving such e-Bills. Conversely, if you activate e-Bills for a particular
Payee through another financial institution, your action will effectively terminate the e-
Bills service for that Payee and you will no longer receive such e-Bills through us.
2.
Approval of e-Bills.Participating Payees establish their own criteria for reviewing
requests to receive e-Bills and have sole discretion to accept or decline your request. We
do not participate in this decision. Participating Payees generally take up to five (5)
Business Days to approve an e-Bill set-up request. By requesting that bills, statements,
or other related communications be sent to you electronically, you warrant that you
have the right, power, and authority to receive them.
3.
Individual and Joint Responsibility. Any individual borrower, account holder or
authorized user on your loan, line of credit, or account can enroll in and use e-Bills.
Regardless of the individual who enrolls in e-Bills, the terms of this Section apply to all
borrowers/account holders/authorized users, individually and jointly.
4.
Timely Delivery of e-Bills. We take no responsibility if a Payee does not provide the
necessary data to forward an e-Bill in a timely manner. If you do not receive a bill, it is
your responsibility to contact the Payee directly. We are not responsible for any late
charges or other adverse consequences. Any questions regarding your bill details
should be directed to your Payee.
5.
Cancel e-Bills. All parties have the right to cancel the service at any time. We may also
elect to discontinue delivering e-Bills for certain Payees or customers. We will notify you
if Chase or a Payee discontinues/stops e-Bills. If you request that an e-Bill be
discontinued, we generally require at least seven (7) Business Days for the Payee to
receive and process the request. Therefore, you may not receive a paper statement
from the Payee, and/or you may not receive an e-Bill through the new financial
institution through which you have activated the e-Bill service for the Payee, but
continue to receive e-Bills from us instead for one or two cycles. We also reserve the
right to terminate a Payee's participation in e-Bills at any time.
6.
Privacy. When you request e-Bills from a participating Payee you will provide certain
information such as required username and password, and you authorize us and our
third party service provider to collect and forward such information onto the Payee on
your behalf, and you appoint us and our third party service provider as your agent for
7.
the limited purpose of completing your enrollment. If you have concerns about the
future use of this information by the Payee you should contact your Payee directly.
Fees, Charges or Other Terms. Unless otherwise noted in your account agreement, we
do not charge any fees for using e-Bills. We reserve the right to change the charges,
fees, or terms for e-Bills. If we make a change, we'll provide notice to you in accordance
with terms of this Addendum. We also reserve the option, in our business judgment, to
waive, reduce, or reserve charges or fees in individual situations.
8.
Acknowledgements and Agreements.
You understand and agree that e-Bills are provided for your convenience, and
payments due continue to be your responsibility.
You also understand and agree that the e-Bills service and therefore the e-Bills
(and any content contained therein) may only be available in English, and not in a
foreign language, including Spanish, regardless of whether you currently receive a
Payee's bill in a foreign language, depending on the Payee. By using this service,
you agree to receive the e-Bills in English, even if you use or access Chase's
website, mobile application or Chase's other products and services in a foreign
language. You agree that Chase is not responsible for delivering the e-Bills to you
in a foreign language, and any questions regarding this issue will be directed to
your Payee.
You also understand and agree that the eBill summary (and any content contained
therein) is accessible via screen reader software and other Assistive Technology
(AT) as presented on any Chase digital platform. The eBill summary may include
the statement date, due date, amounts due and/or other information, and is
different from the eBill.
You also understand and agree that the e-Bills service and therefore the e-Bills
(and any content contained therein) may not be presented in a way which is
accessible to screen reader software or AT which are conformant to web content
accessibility guidelines (WCAG), regardless of whether you currently can access
Payee's bill online or via digital application using screen reader software or other
AT, depending on the Payee. By using this Service, you agree to receive the e-Bills
as provided, which may include an inaccessible format, even if you use or access
Chase's website, mobile application or Chase's other products and services by
using screen reader software or other AT. You agree that Chase is not responsible
for delivering the e-Bills to you in a digitally accessible format which conforms to
WCAG, and any questions regarding this issue will be directed to your Payee.
9.
Accuracy or Completeness. An e-Bill may or may not have all the same information as
the paper version, depending on the Payee. Chase presents the e-Bills as provided by
the Payee. Chase is not responsible for any information or communications related to
them, or for the acts or omissions of any Payee.
10.
Chase Is Not Responsible for Third Parties. We are not responsible for any aspect of
your relationships with the Payees, or for the performance or non-performance of these
third parties. We do not act as a service provider of the Payees. Transactions between
you and a Payee are governed by the Payee's terms and conditions. We do not endorse
or assume any liability for any Payee you use, and we do not have any liability for
payments, returns, refunds, chargebacks, loyalty and rewards related offers and
benefits or any disputes between you and a Payee or other third parties.
11.
2. ADDITIONAL TERMS APPLICABLE ONLY TO PAYMENTS
AND TRANSFERS FOR CONSUMER ACCOUNTS
A consumer account is one that is used primarily for personal, family or household purposes.
If you perform transactions from a home equity line of credit or other credit account, please
see your home equity line of credit or other credit documents for information about your
liability for unauthorized charges or other errors or questions relative to those accounts.
Except for online transfers covered by this Section 2, concerns about other transactions in
your Investment Account or errors on your confirmations and statements from J.P. Morgan
Securities LLC must be reported in accordance with the terms of your Brokerage Account
Agreement.
If we tell you the Delivery Method for your payment is paper check and make the payment by
paper check, the terms in this Section 2 do not apply to the payment. For information on your
rights and obligations involving erroneous paper checks (including paper checks you did not
authorize), see Section V of our Deposit Account Agreement. If we make the payment
electronically, this Section 2 will apply to the payment even if we told you the Delivery Method
for your payment is a paper check.
2.1 Your Liability for Unauthorized Transfers or Payments
If you permit other persons to use Payments and Transfers or your Password, you are
responsible for any transactions they authorize from your accounts. If you believe that your
Password has been lost or stolen or that someone has made payments, transferred or
may transfer money from your account without your permission, notify us AT ONCE, by
calling 1-877-242-7372 or writing us at Online Customer Service, P. O. Box 2558,
Houston, TX 77252-9968.
Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your Password has been lost or stolen or that an unauthorized
online transfer or payment has been made from any of your deposit or prepaid accounts.
Telephoning us is the best and fastest way of keeping your possible losses to a minimum. If
you do not do so, you could lose all the money in each of the accounts, as well as all of the
available funds in any overdraft protection account or any other credit line included among
your accounts. If you tell us within two (2) Business Days after you discover the loss or theft,
you are completely covered if someone makes a transfer or payment without your
authorization.
If you do not tell us within two (2) Business Days after you discover the loss or theft of your
Password or that an unauthorized online transfer or payment has been made from any of
your deposit or prepaid accounts, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from
making a transfer or payment without your authorization if you had told us, you could lose as
much as $500. Furthermore, if any account statement shows online transfers or payments
that you did not make, tell us AT ONCE. If you do not tell us within sixty (60) days after a
statement showing such a transfer or payment was transmitted to you, you may not get back
any money you lost after the sixty (60) days if we can prove that we could have stopped
someone from taking the money if you had told us in time.
If a good reason, such as a long trip or hospital stay, kept you from telling us, we will extend
the time periods.
2.2 Our Liability for Failure to Complete Payments and Transfers
If we do not complete a transfer or payment to or from a consumer account in the correct
amount or according to our agreement with you, we will be liable for those damages as the
law imposes in such cases. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for
example:
If, through no fault of ours, your account does not contain sufficient funds to make the
transfer or payment and the transfer or payment would exceed any credit line or any
overdraft for such account.
A.
Your operating system or software was not functioning properly at the time you
attempted to initiate such transfer or payment and it was evident to you at the time you
began the transfer or payment.
B.
Circumstances beyond our control, such as fires, floods, acts of God, power outages and
the like.
C.
The Payee or, for Payments and Transfers from an External Account, the third party
financial institution holding your account, mishandles or delays processing or posting a
payment or transfer sent by Payments and Transfers.
D.
If you have not provided us with complete and correct payment or transfer information,
including without limitation the financial institution name, address, account number,
transfer amount for a transfer or payment amount for the Payee on a payment.
E.
The list of examples set out in this paragraph is meant to illustrate circumstances under
which we would not be liable for failing to make a transfer or payment and is not intended to
list all of the circumstances where we would not be liable.
2.3 Errors and Questions about Payments and Transfers
If you think your statement is wrong, or if you need more information about a transaction
listed on it, call or write us at the telephone number or address at the end of this Addendum.
For personal accounts only, the following procedures apply: We must hear from you NO
LATER than 60 days after we sent you the FIRST statement on which the error appeared.
Please provide us with the following:
Your name and account number;
A description of the error or the transaction you are unsure about, and why you think it
is an error or want more information; and
The amount of the suspected error.
We will determine whether an error occurred within 10 Business Days after we hear from you
and will correct any error promptly. However, if we need more time, we may take up to 45
days to investigate your complaint or question. If we do this, we will credit your balance
within 10 Business Days for the amount you think is in error, so that you will have the use of
the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation. If you opened your
account less than 30 days before the date of the suspected error, the 10-Business-Day period
is extended to 20 Business Days. If you opened your account less than 30 days before the
date of the suspected error or the transaction occurred at a point-of- sale location or outside
the U.S., the 45-day period is extended to 90 days.
If you call us, we may require that you send us your complaint or question in writing within 10
Business Days. If we do not receive it within 10 Business Days, we may not credit your
balance. We will tell you the results within three business days after completing our
investigation. If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation.
You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.
In case of errors or questions about your electronic transfers that appear on your External
Account statements, please contact the financial institution that provided such statement to
you in accordance with the terms and conditions of your External Account.

About the Real-Time Payments Service
The Real-Time Payments Service enables you to send payments to and receive payments
from Persons that bank with Service Participants, which includes the ability to send payments
to your accounts with other Service Participants. In addition, if enabled by us, you can use
the Real-Time Payments Service to receive requests for payment from Persons that bank with

Participants.
Sending Funds
You may initiate a Service Transfer by submitting a request (a “Service Transfer Request”)
through Chase Online, Chase Mobile®, Chase Business Online, J.P. Morgan Online, J.P.
Morgan Mobile, or such other Digital Platforms as we may make available from time to time.
When you submit a Service Transfer Request, you will be required to provide Receiver
Addressing Information for the Receiver and the Service Transfer Amount. By submitting a
Service Transfer Request, you represent and warrant that the Service Transfer complies with
these Terms.
By submitting a Service Transfer Request, you irrevocably and unconditionally authorize us to
deduct the Payment Amount from your account. We may deduct this amount immediately
upon receipt of your submission of the Service Transfer Request.
The Real-Time Payments Service is typically available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including
weekends and state and federal holidays. However, the Real-Time Payments Service may be
unavailable from time to time, including due to scheduled or unscheduled maintenance.
You may not send through the Real-Time Payments Service more than: (i) $5,000.00 in a
single transaction, $10,000.00 in one day, or $50,000.00 in one month from a Consumer

Risks Associated with the Real-Time Payments Service
There are risks associated with using the Real-Time Payments Service. Service Transfers are
irrevocable and cannot be reversed. You should only use the Real-Time Payments Service to
make payments to Persons that you know. If you receive a request for payment through the
Real-Time Payments Service, you should verify that the request relates to a payment you
were expecting to make to the Person who requested payment. If a request for payment that
you receive through the Real-Time Payments Service does not relate to a payment you were
expecting to make to the Person who requested payment, please notify us at 877-242-7372
(J.P. Morgan Online clients only, call 877-840-0723). If a Person contacts you outside of the
Real-Time Payments Service and asks for payment, you should verify the identity, legitimacy
and contact information of the requestor and the amount of the payment prior to submitting
a Service Transfer Request. If you send payment to a Person that you do not know, or
you do not verify the identity and legitimacy of Persons who contact you and ask for
payment, you may lose the full amount of your payment.
We do not provide buyer protection with respect to Service Transfers. That means that you
cannot reverse or dispute a Service Transfer on the basis that you are dissatisfied with the
goods or services provided by the Receiver; because the Receiver has failed to deliver goods
or perform services, whether at all or in a timely manner; or because you wish to return
purchased goods or cancel a pre-paid service.
The Real-Time Payments Service does enable you to request that a Receiver return funds to
you, but the Receiver is not obligated to return the funds. This includes circumstances in
which the incorrect amount of funds was transferred because you entered the incorrect
Service Transfer Amount or funds were sent to someone other than your intended Receiver
because you incorrectly entered the Receiver Addressing Information or the Receiver
Addressing Information you entered was associated with someone other than your intended
Receiver. If you wish to request that a Receiver return funds that you sent through the Real-
Time Payments Service (a “Return Request”), please notify us at 877-242-7372 (J.P. Morgan
Online clients only, call 877-840-0723). Our sole obligation is to transmit the Return Request
to the Receiving Financial Institution through the Real-Time Payments Service. We cannot
guarantee that funds will be returned in whole or in part and shall have no obligation to make
any effort to recover such funds beyond the transmission of the Return Request.
Any dispute between you and a Receiver must be resolved directly between you and the
Receiver.We have no responsibility for, and shall not be liable to you in connection
with, any dispute between you and a Receiver.
By submitting a Service Transfer Request, you irrevocably and unconditionally authorize us to
initiate a payment using the Receiver Addressing Information. Based on information
available to us, we will provide you the Receiver name associated with the Receiver
Addressing Information.HOWEVER, WE MAKE NO REPRESENTATION THAT THE
INFORMATION AVAILABLE TO US IS CORRECT, AND YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR
VERIFYING THAT THE RECEIVER ADDRESSING INFORMATION IS ACCURATE AND
COMPLETE, THAT SUCH INFORMATION IS ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR INTENDED RECEIVER,
AND THAT THE AMOUNT OF THE PAYMENT IS CORRECT PRIOR TO SUBMITTING A SERVICE
TRANSFER REQUEST. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT WE HAVE NO OBLIGATION
TO VERIFY THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE RECEIVER ADDRESSING
INFORMATION OR THAT THE RECEIVER ADDRESSING INFORMATION IS ASSOCIATED WITH
YOUR INTENDED RECEIVER. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY STATE OR FEDERAL
LAW, OUR SOLE OBLIGATION SHALL BE TO INITIATE A PAYMENT THROUGH THE REAL-
TIME PAYMENTS SERVICE IN THE SERVICE TRANSFER AMOUNT INDICATED BY YOU USING
THE RECEIVER ADDRESSING INFORMATION PROVIDED BY YOU. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE
REQUIRED BY STATE OR FEDERAL LAW, WE SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY TO YOU WITH
RESPECT TO ANY LOSS THAT YOU EXPERIENCE DUE TO THE INACCURACY OR
INCOMPLETENESS OF SUCH RECEIVER ADDRESSING INFORMATION, THE FAILURE OF
SUCH INFORMATION TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR INTENDED RECEIVER, OR YOUR
FAILURE TO CORRECTLY ENTER THE RECEIVER ADDRESSING INFORMATION OR THE
SERVICE TRANSFER AMOUNT.

System;

to review by the Sending Institution or Receiving Institution for fraud, regulatory or
compliance purposes. Service Transfer Requests are typically completed within 15 seconds of
transmission of the Service Transfer Request by the Sender, unless the Service Transfer fails
or is delayed as described above.
If you are the Sender, we will notify you if a Service Transfer fails. If you are the Receiver, we
will not communicate to you that the Service Transfer has failed. If you have not received a
Service Transfer that you were expecting, you must contact the Sender.

appear to violate any local, state, or federal law or regulation; (ii) payments to accounts
domiciled outside the United States; (iii) payments transmitted solely for the purpose of

to determine the validity of Receiver Addressing Information provided to you by a Receiver
that wishes to receive a payment from you; or (iv) any other payment that violates this
Agreement.
You acknowledge that you are permitted to use the Real-Time Payments Service solely for the
purpose of making or receiving payments: (i) on your own behalf; or (ii) on behalf of Persons
that are resident of or domiciled in the United States of America. If you make or receive

Foreign Assets control. You acknowledge that any payment that violates the foregoing
restrictions is a Prohibited Payment.
Transaction Errors; Unauthorized Transactions; Lost or Stolen Passwords
If you permit other persons to use the Real-Time Payments Services, or use or access your
Password, you are responsible for any transactions they authorize from your accounts. If you
believe that your Password has been lost or stolen or that someone has or may initiate
a Service Transfer from your account without your permission, notify us AT ONCE, by
calling 1-877-242-7372 (J.P. Morgan Online clients only, call 877- 840-0723) or writing us
at Online Customer Service, P. O. Box 2558, Houston, TX 77252-9968.
You must tell us immediately if you believe your Password has been lost or stolen or that an
unauthorized Service Transfer has been made from any of your deposit or prepaid accounts.
Telephoning us is the best and fastest way of keeping your possible losses to a minimum. If
you do not do so, you could lose all the money in each of the accounts, as well as all of the
available funds in any overdraft protection account or any other credit line included among
your accounts.
If you do not tell us within two (2) Business Days after you discover the loss or theft of your
Password, you may not be reimbursed if someone makes a Service Transfer without your
authorization. If you do not tell us within two (2) Business Days after you discover the loss or
theft of your Password or that an unauthorized Service Transfer has been made from any of
your deposit or prepaid accounts, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from
making a Service Transfer without your authorization if you had told us, you could lose as
much as $500.
Furthermore, if any account statement shows Service Transfers that you did not make, tell us
AT ONCE. If you do not tell us within sixty (60) days after a statement showing such a Service
Transfer was transmitted to you, you may not be reimbursed the money you lost after the
sixty (60) days if we can prove that we could have stopped someone from taking the money if
you had told us in time.

the time periods.
