MasterCard will use commercially efforts to forward to Customer any complaints it may receive from Customer’s Cardholders, and Customer shall be responsible for responding to any such complaints. Customer, however, acknowledges that MasterCard will not have a formal Cardholder complaint process established under this Agreement. MasterCard shall cooperate and respond to reasonable requests by Customer for additional information related to any such complaints.

PROJECT PLAN and Change Control Process

A. | The Project Plan shall be mutually agreed upon by the parties and incorporated herein by reference.

B. | Change Control Process

The Project Plan will be the roadmap for MasterCard to deliver the Processing Services. The Project Plan will be based on the high level requirements document. This document will be agreed to by all parties and published by MasterCard. Changes to the Project Plan will be accomplished in accordance with the Change Control Procedures as described below.
MasterCard will keep the Project Plan current based on agreed upon changes. Customer or MasterCard may submit updates and changes to the Project Plan per the Change Control process.
Each party will identify its requirement needs from the other party in the Project Plan, and will otherwise provide the other party with commercially reasonable notice(s) of its need for data, information, and input. Each party as commercially reasonable, will promptly provide data, information, resources, and input to the other party as required.
Each party shall obtain for the other party all necessary file layouts, associated confidentiality protections and other information necessary for the Processing Services. The foregoing file layouts, associated confidentiality protections and all other associated necessary information must be provided per the date(s) required in the Project Plan in order for MasterCard and Customer to achieve the Project Plan milestones.
Change Control Procedures
In order to deliver the Processing Services in accordance with the dates in the Project Plan, Customer and MasterCard will jointly develop and mutually agree on a Project Plan. The Project Plan will be a living document, and will likely change throughout its operational period. The Project Plan will be changed through the use of a Change Control Procedure (CCP). The goals of the CCP are:

• | Minor Changes can be quickly assessed and presented for decision at the lowest appropriate level

• | Previously unknown or not included requirements can be captured and actioned

• | Major (Material) Changes can be quickly identified and routed for formal approval

Customer and MasterCard will comply with the CCP, as described, to help ensure that changes identified during the conversion period are properly and completely identified, categorized, and managed through its ultimate disposition:

1) | The parties will initiate a Change Control Form ("Form") should there be a need to deviate from the requirements of the Project Plan.

2) | The Form may be completed by personnel of either party. The requirements for submitting the Form will be mutually agreed to. Each party shall appoint someone to be the single point of coordination (POC) and control point for change control who will be their person responsible for managing the CCP and coordinating with the other’s POC.

3) | All Forms (both approved and rejected) exchanged between the parties will be retained and further logged by MasterCard.

4) | The parties will determine the procedures, estimated timing including potential impact to Project Plan dates, pricing (if applicable) and process to be used to implement approved changes as part of their review and approval process.

a. | If the requested change is reviewed and determined to be Major/Material, the request will be elevated to appropriate senior management of each organization for approval. For purposes of this section, a change to the Project Plan milestones is deemed to be Major/Material. If the request is approved, the change will be recorded as such, and will be added to the requirements, and the Project Plan will be changed as agreed.

b. | If the requested change is reviewed and determined to be minor, the Project Plan will be changed as agreed.

Confidential

c. | If a change request is not approved by one party, and the party desirous of the change still wishes for the change to be accepted, the parties agree to work to find an acceptable alternative, and further agree to use a management escalation approach to ultimately resolve the issue.

d. | The parties' approval of the change shall be signified by each party’s signature of the applicable Form. Email approval is deemed acceptable. No change shall be effective unless such Change Control Form is approved by both parties.
