2. Object

The lender establishes a straightforward credit line for the customer, extending up to the specified credit limit. It is explicitly agreed that any fees, commissions, or charges incurred by the customer are not encompassed within the line of credit.

The lender retains the option to utilize the line of credit on one or multiple occasions during its duration, up to the maximum term stipulated. This involves subscribing to and accepting the corresponding promissory note, duly recorded or supporting the issuance of the award. Upon meeting the criteria outlined herein, the lender will credit the designated amount to the customer's account.

Both parties mutually acknowledge and consent that, in the case of customer withdrawals at or below the Credit Limit, the customer explicitly and irrevocably instructs and authorizes the lender to execute withdrawals through electronic transfer, bank deposit, or inter-bank transfer instructions.

3. Contract Acceptance

The parties mutually affirm that the acceptance of this Contract entails an external manifestation of the Contract concerning the Lender. This necessitates the Lender's introduction of a PIN code through the application before certification. The Lender's acceptance is intricately tied to the availability of the credit line.

4. Utilization

The parties jointly establish that the credit amount may be utilized for any purpose as freely determined by the lender. The customer explicitly asserts that the usage of the credit line adheres to legal standards.

5. Utilization Instructions

Both parties concur that the utilization of the Credit Amount will be executed in alignment with the instructions outlined in the Withdrawal Instruction provided by the Client. Following the implementation of instructions governing the utilization of the credit amount, the Client is obligated to remit the entire credit amount to the Lender.

6. Collection Service Fee

In the event of the Customer's failure to make timely and proper payment of the Total Credit Amount, a collection fee becomes payable to the Lender under the following conditions: (i) commencing from the first day of the delay through the sixth day, a daily collection fee, as specified in the relevant Annex for this circumstance, is payable for each day of delay by the Lender; (ii) from the seventh day of the delay onwards, the amount specified in the corresponding Annex applies, and in the event that the Lender initiates legal or extrajudicial action against the Customer, the Customer may be liable to cover this amount.

7. Service Commission Charge

The Client commits to remit a service fee to the Lender. This service fee is computed based on the credit amount indicated on the title page and is to be paid by the Lender along with the credit amount within the designated payment term. The Lender will communicate to the Client, through the Application, the amount of the Service Fee applicable to each new withdrawal. The Client is obliged to settle this fee within the Payment Term.

8. Payment Obligations

The customer commits to remit the entire credit amount to the lender and any applicable collection charges. To fulfill its contractual obligations, the customer is required to make payments through the following methods before the designated payment deadline.

The customer explicitly affirms a comprehensive understanding that the account designated for the total credit payment must be under the name of the lender. Consequently, the customer is prohibited from making payments to any account where the lender is not the beneficiary. In instances where the payment is not reflected in the Lender's accounting records, the Lender will provide certification through the corresponding transfer receipt, deposit slip, or note.

Both parties mutually consent that all payments mandated by the Customer to the Lender, as outlined in this Agreement, shall not be subject to deductions or withholdings for any reason. Payments are required to be made no later than the specified payment deadline indicated on the cover sheet.

Any payments made by the Customer under the terms of the Contract shall be allocated by the Lender in the following order: (i) taxes, (ii) collection fees, (iii) service charges, and (iv) payment of the Line of Credit. The crediting of payments will be carried out as follows: (i) for cash payments, on the same day as the customer's payment, and (ii) for electronic transfers, on the day the transfer is executed.

9. Cancellation

The customer holds the right to cancel the contract within one day from the contract signing date, exempt from any liability or commission, provided they have not withdrawn the credit amount.

10. Term of this agreement

This Agreement remains valid for the term specified on the Cover Page, starting from the execution date. Regardless, the PARTIES mutually agree that it continues in force until all outstanding debts owed by the customer are settled.

11. Forms of authentication

To provide consent, the Customer must utilize electronic verification means: (i) relying on the Customer's personal information, which reasonably assures the Customer's identity. (ii) entering an electronically expressed PIN. Before accepting the credit line, the Lender furnishes the Customer with a Personal Identification Number (PIN) through their cell phone number, enabling them to confirm consent for any electronically conducted transaction. This PIN is personal, non-transferable, and the Customer's sole responsibility for custody, confidentiality, and usage. Following the established mechanism, the PIN may be modified at the Client's request. (iii) receiving a verification code (PIN) via any authorized communication medium chosen by the Customer, which must be printed or provided electronically. The Lender may also identify the Customer through alternative means (e.g., photo, audio, geolocation) with the Customer's authorization.

12 Modifications

The Lender reserves the right to make amendments to this Agreement and its Exhibits. Notification of such modifications will be provided to the Customer at least thirty (30) calendar days before their effective date. The Lender will communicate and disseminate modifications through its application, outlining the address and telephone number, a summary of the changes, associated fees, and interest rates, the effective date of the modifications, and the right to terminate this instrument without incurring any liability. In the event the Client disagrees with the proposed changes, they may request an early termination of this Agreement within 30 days from the notice date mentioned in this clause, without any liability. The Client must first settle all debts arising from the agreement with the Lender up to that point, according to the initially agreed-upon terms. The Client is considered to have accepted the change if the contract amendment period concludes without the Lender indicating earlier termination.

13 Assignment

Without the prior written approval of the lender, the customer is prohibited from assigning any rights or obligations in its favor or at its expense. Any assignment not aligned with the terms stipulated in this Agreement is deemed void and not recognized by the lender. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, the customer explicitly authorizes the lender to endorse, assign, transfer, negotiate, influence, and/or pledge, at any time and respectively pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any rights arising in favor of the lender in the future. The provisions of this paragraph also extend to any subsequent lender or assignee.

14 Termination

The contract will be terminated upon the full payment of the total credit amount. Consequently, the Lender will proceed to issue non-debt letters in favor of the Client. This electronic delivery will occur through the application, or the email address provided by the Client in the application, within 30 business days from the business day when the Lender receives the corresponding request from the Client. After the completion of this delivery, as outlined in this paragraph, the relevant report will be submitted to the credit company. In the event the Customer fails to pay the total credit amount, either in full or in part, the Lender reserves the right to request a deposit against the credit amount.

15 Applicable Laws

This contract is governed by the provisions outlined in its Clauses. In the absence thereof, it is additionally governed by the General Law of Credit Instruments and Operations, the Code of Commerce, and the Federal Civil Code of the India.
