Additional supplementary agreements may need to be entered into between the Client and AlphaPay for the opening of new Accounts.

4.4. The Client hereby confirms its understanding that funds held in the Account are not a deposit. Therefore, AlphaPay is not obliged, in any circumstances, to pay any interest for the funds held in the Account and does not provide any other benefits associated with the time period the funds are stored.

The amount of funds to be transferred is chosen by the Client. AlphaPay initiates the Client’s fund transfer to another account specified by the Client.

4.6. When transferring funds out of the Account, the Client pays the usual Commission Fee which depends on the Payment Transaction carried out by the Client.

4.7. AlphaPay may offer currency exchange services to the Client. In such a case, the Client may exchange funds held in the Account into other currencies offered by AlphaPay.

Under a separate agreement between the Client and AlphaPay, the Payment Transaction may be authorised (i.e. such Consent of the Client may be given) after execution of the Payment Transaction. Generally, the Consent of the Client may be given by submitting a Payment Order through the Representative:

5.1.1. through the System when logged in to the Profile;

5.1.2. through verification by e-mail, or mobile device;

5.1.3. through the Recipient or a payment initiation service provider;

5.1.4. in any other manner determined by AlphaPay or agreed upon with the Client;

5.1.5. in all cases specified hereabove, the Consent shall be deemed duly approved by the Client, having the same legal validity as a paper document (the Consent) signed by the Client, and is permissible as a mean of proof in resolving disputes between AlphaPay and the Client in courts and other institutions. The Client shall not be entitled to contest the Payment Transaction executed by AlphaPay, if the Payment Transaction has been approved by the Consent provided in the manner set out in this Clause.

5.2. To execute the Payment Transaction, AlphaPay has the right to determine the mandatory information that shall be submitted to AlphaPay. The Payment Order shall comply with the requirements established by AlphaPay, the agreements concluded between AlphaPay and the Client and the legal requirements for the submission of the Payment Order and (or) its content. The Client’s Payment Order shall be executable, worded clearly, unambiguously, and it shall clearly express the will of the Client. AlphaPay is not liable for any errors, inconsistencies, repetitions and (or) contradictions contained in the Client’s Payment Order, including, but not limited to, the accuracy of the Recipient’s details.

5.3. The Payment Order is deemed received at AlphaPay on the day it is received, and if the day of the receipt of the Payment Order is not a Business Day, it shall be presumed that the Payment Order has been received on the next Business Day. The Payment Order received by AlphaPay on the Business Day after 4:00 p.m. (Lithuanian time) is deemed to have been received on the next Business Day. Payment Order for Instant Credit Transfer is deemed received at AlphaPay at the moment of the actual receipt.

5.4. The Payment Order cannot be cancelled after AlphaPay has received it, except for the cases provided in the Agreement or applicable legal acts.

5.5. If the Payment Transaction has been initiated by the Recipient or via the Recipient or by a payment initiation service provider, the Payer cannot cancel the Payment Order after the Payment Order has been submitted for execution, the Payer has granted the payment initiation service provider the Consent to initiate the Payment Transaction or the Payer has granted the Recipient the Consent to perform the Payment Transaction.

5.6. Upon expiry of the term stipulated in Clauses 5.3-5.5 of the Agreement, the Payment Order may be cancelled only in case the Client (Payer) and AlphaPay agree on this. In the cases stipulated in Clause 5.5 of the Agreement, the Consent of the Recipient is also necessary.

5.7. When the Payment Transaction is initiated by the Recipient or through the Recipient, and when the exact amount of the Payment Transaction is unknown at the time when the Payer gives the Consent to execute the Payment Transaction, AlphaPay may reserve the funds in the Payer’s Account only provided if the Payer gives the Consent to reserve a specific amount. Upon receipt of the information on the exact amount of the Payment Transaction, AlphaPay shall immediately, and not later than immediately upon receipt of the Payment Order, remove the reservation from the Payer’s Account.

5.8. The Client shall pay all Commission Fees in EUR and undertakes to maintain a sufficient balance in its Account(s) for this purpose. The Client agrees that AlphaPay shall have the right to unilaterally deduct any outstanding Commission Fees from any Account. If the EUR balance is insufficient, AlphaPay shall have the right, but not the obligation, to deduct the outstanding Commission Fees from funds held in other currencies, converting them into EUR at the then-current exchange rate applied by AlphaPay to the Client. Where funds are held in multiple currencies, AlphaPay may convert them into EUR in the alphabetical order of the international currency abbreviations.

5.9. If the Client delays payment of the unpaid Commission Fees referred to in Clause 5.8 or fails to maintain sufficient funds in the Accounts for AlphaPay to deduct unilaterally, and does not remedy this within 3 (three) Business Days of receiving notice from AlphaPay, the Client shall be required to pay default interest at the rate of 0.06 percent of the outstanding amount for each day of delay. The Client acknowledges and agrees that AlphaPay may recover the outstanding Commission Fees and deduct the applicable default interest from any funds in any Account under this Agreement without the Client’s separate consent or prior notice.

5.10. AlphaPay may block the Payment Instrument for objectively justified reasons related to the security of the Payment Instrument, i.e. in case of the suspicion of unauthorised or fraudulent use of the Payment Instrument. AlphaPay undertakes, where possible, to inform the Client of the blocking of the Payment Instrument and the reasons for it in the manner set forth in Clauses 9.1 and 9.3 before the Payment Instrument is blocked or at the latest immediately thereafter, unless giving such information would compromise security measures or is prohibited by legislation. AlphaPay shall unblock the Payment Instrument or replace it with a new Payment Instrument once the reasons for blocking cease to exist.

5.11. If at the time such a service is offered by AlphaPay, the Client may place a Standing Order within the System. The Standing Order must indicate the Recipient, the sum of funds and the recurring date on which the Standing Order shall be executed. Initial Consent when placing the Standing Order shall be held as the Consent for all recurring Standing Orders.

5.12. When the due date of the Standing Order is not a Business Day, the Standing Order shall be executed on the following Business Day. The Standing Order for Instant Credit Transfers shall be executed on the day and at the time indicated in such Standing Order.

5.13. The Standing Order shall only be executed if there are sufficient funds in the Account from which the Standing Order is placed. If there are sufficient funds for the Standing Order but not enough for the payment of the adjacent Commission Fees, the Standing Order shall not be executed until enough funds to pay the Commission Fees are transferred to the Account.

5.14. The Client shall specify the currency of the Standing Order. If the Account from which the Standing Order is placed does not have sufficient funds in the currency of the Standing Order but has funds in different currencies, AlphaPay shall not convert such funds to the currency of the Standing Order and shall not execute the Standing Order.

5.15. If more than one Standing Order from the Account shall be executed on the same date, they shall be executed in chronological order following the date of the initial placing of such Standing Orders. Standing Orders shall be executed in the same manner as other Payment Orders as indicated in Section 6.

5.16. The Client may revoke the Standing Order until the end of the last Business Day before the date of such Standing Order.

5.17. AlphaPay may require to conclude an additional agreement setting out specific terms and fees for the provision of Standing Orders.

6. Execution of Payment Transactions

6.1. Prior to the execution of the Payment Transaction initiated by the Client, upon request of the Client, AlphaPay shall provide the Client with information on the maximum execution time for the Payment Transaction, payable Commission Fee and indicate how the Commission Fee is distributed.

6.2. Before executing the Payment Order submitted by the Client, AlphaPay has the right to require the Client to provide documents proving the lawfulness of the origin of funds related to the Payment Order and (or) the circumstances related to the basis of such Payment Transaction. In case the Client fails to submit such documents, AlphaPay has the right to refuse to execute the Payment Transaction. If a Payment Order is rejected by AlphaPay due to objectively justified reasons (such reasons for refusal as specified in the Agreement), a fee for such Payment Order shall be applied as if the Payment Order had been executed.

6.3. The obligation to provide information and documents referred to in Clause 6.2 shall also apply to any other parties involved in the transaction, i.e. the Representative, Recipient or other related persons.

6.4. AlphaPay has the right to involve third parties in executing the Payment Order of the Client partially or in full if the Client’s interests and (or) the essence of the Payment Order requires so. In cases where the Payment Order of the Client requires sending and executing the Payment Order further through another financial institution, but this institution suspends the Payment Order of the Client, AlphaPay is not responsible for such actions of the financial institution but makes attempts to find out the reasons for the suspension of the Payment Order. AlphaPay has the right to provide such another financial institution documents received from the Client under Clause 6.2.

6.5. AlphaPay and the Client may agree on a limit on the Payment Transactions, which shall also be indicated on the Profile. AlphaPay also has the right to unilaterally, without the Client’s consent, impose the limits on the Account, Payment Transactions and other Payment Services provided by AlphaPay. The Client may check applicable limits and request a change of the limits by a written free-form request through the System or by e-mail. A change of limits may be subject to the provision of additional documents requested by AlphaPay.

6.6. AlphaPay has the right to refuse to execute (or suspend execution of) the Payment Transaction in accordance with the Payment Order and to start the investigation if AlphaPay has any reasonable suspicions that the Payment Order and (or) the Payment Transaction may violate this Agreement, any other agreement between the Client and AlphaPay and (or) legal acts, or there are suspicions that the Payment Order was not submitted by the Client or legal representative of the Client, illegal funds may be used for execution of the Payment Transaction, there are insufficient data or other deficiencies in the Payment Order, as well as in the case of failure of interbank and (or) other financial systems, other unusual market conditions, important technical or other grounds, or the risk associated with the execution of the Payment Transaction is too high and unacceptable for AlphaPay. AlphaPay does not undertake the responsibility for losses which may arise due to refusal to execute a submitted Payment Order. The Payment Order may not be executed, or execution may be delayed if AlphaPay has reasonable doubts if the Payment Order was submitted by the Client or if it has reasonable doubts regarding the legality or content of the Payment Order.

6.7. Except as indicated in Clause 6.9, when the Payment Transaction is conducted in EUR in Lithuania or to other Member States, AlphaPay undertakes to ensure that, upon receipt of the Payment Order, the Payment Transaction is executed on the same Business Day (when the Payer’s and Recipient’s accounts are both opened within AlphaPay) or at the latest by the end of the next Business Day (when the Recipient’s account is opened at another financial institution) following the verification procedure of suspicious Payment Transactions and Client’s compliance with legal requirements.

6.8. When the Payment Transaction is conducted in a currency other than EUR in Lithuania or to other Member States, AlphaPay undertakes to ensure that, upon receipt of the Payment Order, the Payment Transaction is executed within a maximum term of 4 (four) Business Days following the verification procedure of suspicious Payment Transactions and Client’s compliance with legal requirements. When the account of the Recipient of the Payment Transaction is held under a jurisdiction other than of a Member State, it shall be executed within 5 (five) Business Days starting from the next day the Payment Order is made.

6.9. When the Payment Transaction is conducted in EUR in Lithuania, AlphaPay undertakes to ensure that, upon receipt of the Payment Order, the Payment Transaction is executed on the same Business Day, if the Payment Order is received before 12 p.m. on the same Business Day following the verification procedure of suspicious Payment Transactions and Client’s compliance with legal requirements. When the Payment Order is received after 12 p.m., AlphaPay undertakes to ensure that, upon receipt of the Payment Order, the Payment Transaction is executed at the latest by the end of the next Business Day following the verification procedure of suspicious Payment Transactions and Client’s compliance with legal requirements.

6.10. AlphaPay has the right to record and store Payment Orders submitted by the Client and to record and store information about all Payment Transactions executed in accordance with the Payment Orders submitted by the Client. AlphaPay may provide the records referred to in this Clause to the Client and (or) those persons who have a statutory basis to gain access to such data as evidence of the submitted Payment Orders and (or) executed Payment Transactions.

6.11. When initiating Payment Orders for Payment Transactions in EUR, the Client shall have the ability to choose between regular transfers, which shall be executed as indicated in Clauses 6.7 and 6.9 or Instant Credit Transfers, which shall be executed immediately. This Clause shall apply only when the Client initiates Payment Orders in EUR and where the payment service provider of the Recipient is situated in a Member State of the European Union.

6.12. The Client acknowledges that AlphaPay may engage in automatic currency conversion when the Client initiates a Payment Transaction in a currency not accepted by the payment service provider of the Payee. In such a case AlphaPay shall apply the currency exchange rates indicated in Clause 4.7.

6.13. AlphaPay grants the possibility for the Client to use the funds received in the Account as soon as this amount is credited to an account held by AlphaPay in a financial institution and AlphaPay receives all the information necessary for it, provided that the funds are received before the latest time for crediting funds, if any is provided in the Agreement or other documents. In any case, the Client shall be granted the possibility to use received funds no later than allowed by applicable legal acts.

6.14. The Client shall check the information on the Profile about Payment Transactions executed on a daily basis and inform AlphaPay in writing about any unauthorised or inappropriately executed Payment Transactions via e-mail (compliance@alphapay.lt) or the System. The Client’s notification shall be submitted promptly, but not later than within 1 (one) Business Day from the day AlphaPay has executed the Payment Transaction which is indicated by the Client as unauthorised or improperly executed. In such case, AlphaPay shall return all funds debited as a result of the unauthorised or inappropriately executed Payment Transaction to the Client. If the Client does not submit any such notifications by the specified time, the Client shall be deemed to have unconditionally agreed with the Payment Transactions executed.

6.15. AlphaPay, having received the Client’s notification about an unauthorised Payment Transaction and convinced that such transaction does not arise from intentional acts, gross negligence or dishonesty of the Client, shall immediately at the latest by the end of the next Business Day after becoming aware or notified of the unauthorised Payment Transaction return the amount of the unauthorised Payment Transaction to the Client and restore the balance on the Account from which this amount was subtracted, should the unauthorised Payment Transaction would not have been performed, except in cases stipulated in this Agreement, where the Client has the responsibility for the unauthorised Payment Transaction.

6.16.

6.32. All information on the funds and Payment Transactions, their data, terms of execution, fees, etc. is available to the Client at any time by logging into the System on the Client’s Profile. By logging into the System, the Client may also receive the Account statement with this information.
