Legal Proceedings
In April 2021, ACH files associated with one of the Company's mortgage servicing customers were inadvertently transmitted into the ACH network during a test of the Company's payment processing system. The Company took immediate corrective action and issued reversing ACH files, restoring affected accounts.

The Company was named as a defendant in seven class action lawsuits filed in various federal courts purportedly on behalf of consumers whose mortgage accounts were affected by the inadvertent ACH file transmission. The Company entered into an agreement, which is subject to final court approval and other conditions, to settle these lawsuits for the Company's establishment of a $5.0 million fund out of which payments would be made to class members and the Company's payment of attorneys’ fees and administrative costs, plus additional funds totaling $1.5 million that could be required to be established under certain circumstances. There can be no assurance that the conditions to settlement will be satisfied, in which event the class action litigation could proceed.

The inadvertent ACH file transmission also gave rise to investigations by the U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the "CFPB") and state attorneys general in 49 states, the District of Columbia, and certain U.S. territories as well as money transmission regulators in 46 states, the District of Columbia, and certain U.S. territories. A lead group of attorneys general and regulatory representatives of nine states have led the state investigations of the matter. The Company has cooperated with the CFPB and state authorities, including furnishing documents and information to them. There can be no assurance that the matters will be resolved without litigation, and the matters could result in the impositions of material penalties and damages as well as burdensome and costly remedies.

The Company has asserted claims for insurance coverage with respect to potential losses associated with the inadvertent ACH file transmission. There is no assurance as to the amount of insurance that may be available or its effect on the availability or cost of insurance in the future.

The Company is from time to time subject to other claims, litigation and investigations. While we believe that none of the currently pending matters is reasonably likely to have material adverse effect on us, there can be no assurance with respect thereto or future matters.
