Business Account notifies the Lead Agency that it has not received the ordered cards, the Lead Agency will ship a
replacement order. If the Business Account subsequently receives the cards reported as missing,the Business
Account is responsible for returning them to the Lead Agency.
5.3 Storage and Risk of Loss. The Business Account is responsible for the storage, distribution and use of the
ORCA Business Cards issued to it. The Business Account bears the sole risk of any loss, damage, theft or
unauthorized use of one of its cards, whether such card is held in its inventory or has been distributed for use. The
Business Account is responsible for the cost of any use of its Business Cards until the effective date of a Card Block
that may be initiated as provided below.
5.4 Distance Based Transit Fare. The Business Account is responsible for communicating to Cardholders that
"distance based fares"are charged on some systems such as: Link light rail, and Sounder commuter rail systems. On
distance based fare modes, when the Cardholder"taps on,"the ORCA system will record the trip to the last stop on the
line. When the Cardholder"taps off'at the end of the ride, ORCA will record the actual ride.The Business Account
then will be charged the correct fare for the actual ride taken. If the Cardholder fails to"tap off', then ORCA will record
a ride to the end of the line.The result of not"tapping off' is that the Business Account will be charged the largest fare
for the ride even if a shorter ride was taken.
5.5 Distribution of ORCA Business Cards. The Business Account is responsible for distributing its Business
Cards for use by its Eligible Business Cardholders.The Business Account remains the owner of all Business Cards it
distributes but a cardholder may also purchase and load individual ORCA products on a Business Card and individually
register the card. To enable Cardholders to register Business Cards as provided in Section 6 below,the Business
Account may not register, or allow anyone other than the Cardholder to register, the Business Cards that are issued
under this Agreement.
The Business Account shall require that the Cardholder, as a condition of receiving a Business Card, is informed of the
Cardholder Rules of Use, incorporated in this Agreement as Attachment 4 ORCA Business Cardholder Rules of
Use, through your business' standard means of communicating policies.
The Business Account understands and agrees that it is solely responsible for implementation and enforcement of the
Cardholder Rules of Use.
5.6 Proof of payment. The Business Account is responsible for notifying Cardholders that proof of payment must
be made by tapping the ORCA Card on the card reader in the manner required by each Agency; otherwise,the
Cardholder may be subject to a fine if the ORCA Card is not tapped, and the Cardholder will be personally responsible
for any fines that may be imposed.
5.7 Business Account Access to Personally Identifying Information. If an individual Cardholder opts to register
one of the Business Cards issued to the Business Account, any personally identifying information provided to the
ORCA System (e.g. name, address, telephone number, and credit card number)will not be accessible by the Business
Account. If the Business Account collects any personally identifying information about individuals to whom it has
distributed Business Cards, the Business Account is solely responsible for its collection, use, storage and disclosure of
such information.
5.8 Card Blocks. In the event a Business Card is determined to be lost or stolen or if a Cardholder is determined
by the Business Account to be no longer eligible to use the card,the Business Account may initiate a Card Block via
the Business Account Website to invalidate the subject Business Card. The Lead Agency may also initiate a Card
Block or a Product Block as to any of the Business Account's Business Cards at the request of the Business Account,
or at the sole discretion of the Lead Agency in accordance with Section 4.4, or if it is suspected that a card has been
altered, duplicated, counterfeited,stolen or used by an ineligible Cardholder. Once initiated, a Card Block must be
processed in the ORCA system and downloaded to all reader devices throughout the region. Until that occurs, there is

the potential that the Business Passport Product and any E-purse value or other ORCA Products on the subject card
will continue to be used. The Business Account, not the Agencies, remains responsible for all transactions, and any
loss or costs arising there from,for forty-eight(48) hours after the Card Block was initiated.
5.9 Restoration of Value After Card Block. Following a Card Block,the Business Account may request the Lead
Agency to restore value on a replacement of the blocked Business Card. An E-purse on a blocked card will be restored
on the replacement card in approximately ten (10)calendar days after the replacement card is issued. The E-purse
amount that remained on the lost or stolen card, forty-eight(48) hours after the Card Block was initiated in the ORCA
system,will be restored to the replacement card via a remote revalue function. An E-purse on a blocked card will be
restored on the replacement card on the eighth day after the card has been issued. The card must then be tapped to
activate the E-purse value.
5.10 Card Replacement.The Business Account is responsible for ordering and paying for any new cards needed
to replace Business Cards that for any reason cease to be available or suitable for use by the Cardholders under the
program of the Business Account, including but not limited to, if the unavailability or unsuitability is caused by damage,
abuse, loss,theft, Card Block, and end of useful life. Provided, however, and notwithstanding the exclusion of
warranties in Section 14, if a Business Card malfunctions within twelve(12) months after it was delivered to the
Business Account, it shall be replaced by the Lead Agency without additional charge to the Business Account if the
malfunction was caused by a defect in design, material or workmanship and was not caused by misuse, an intentional
act, negligence or damage, reasonable wear and tear excepted.The Business Account understands and agrees that to
avoid the disruption and inconvenience caused by sporadic failures as its cards are used, it must plan for replacement
of its Business Cards on a regular basis.As a condition of continuing under the Business Passport program,the
Business Account agrees that: (a) it will retire all of its ORCA Business Cards at sometime within four years after they
are issued by the Lead Agency to the Business Account; and (b) purchase replacement Business Cards at the
then-applicable rate.
6.0 CARDHOLDER USE OF ORCA BUSINESS CARDS
Cardholder Privileges. The Business Account understands and agrees that, although it remains the owner of ORCA
Business Cards after distribution,the Cardholder has the following privileges in connection with the use of an ORCA
Business Card.
6.1 The Cardholder may present an ORCA Business Card, loaded with a valid,applicable Business Passport or
Business Choice Product, to an ORCA fare transaction processor as proof of payment of all or a portion of a required
fare on a regular transportation service operated by one or more of the Agencies. (Provided, however, an ORCA
Product that is not sufficient to fully pay a fare will not be accepted as partial payment by the Washington State
Ferries.) In all cases, a Cardholder will be required to make other payment to the extent a fare is not covered by an
ORCA Product.
6.2 The Cardholder may individually purchase ORCA Products and load them on the Business Card in addition to
any ORCA Product loaded by the Business Account. Individual ORCA Products may be used to pay all or a portion of
a required fare on a transportation service not covered by a Business Passport Product or Business Choice Product.
(Provided, however, an ORCA Product that is not sufficient to fully pay a fare will not be accepted as partial payment
by the Washington State Ferries.) In all cases, a Cardholder will be required to make other payment to the extent a fare
is not covered by an ORCA Product.
6.3 The Cardholder may register his/her name and other contact information with the ORCA System and link such
personal information to the serial number of the Business Card provided to him/her. Such registration does not give the
Cardholder any ownership rights in the card but does give the Cardholder the right to access the ORCA Cardholder
Website to view the card's transaction history and current stored value, to modify travel zone preferences, and to add
retail products.

Except as otherwise provided herein or in Section 13.2, the Business Account understands and agrees that its
purchases of Business Cards, and Business Passport Products and Business Choice Products purchased for such
cards, are final and it is not entitled to any refunds. Provided, however, the Business Account may request a refund of
the E-purse value remaining on a Business Card if the card is surrendered by the Business Account to the Lead
Agency. Upon surrender of the subject Business Card, the Lead Agency shall initiate a Card Block and the refund
processed approximately ten (10)calendar days after the Card Block was initiated. The E-purse amount refunded will
be that which remained on the surrendered card forty-eight(48) hours after the Card Block was initiated in the ORCA
system.A processing fee of ten dollars($10) may be payable by the Business Account to the Lead Agency for each
refund that is processed, regardless of E-purse value or number of cards refunded. The Business Account, not the
Lead Agency, is responsible for the refunding of such E-purse value, if any, to the individual Cardholder to whom the
Business Card had been distributed.
8.0 BUSINESS ACCOUNT WEBSITE
8.1 The Business Account Website is the primary means by which the Business Account shall purchase ORCA

about the use of said cards.As a condition of participation in the Business Passport program,the Business Account

password to the Business Account's Primary Contact, as specified in Attachment 2, to enable user access to the

solely responsible for complying with the security standards specified in Attachment 5, ORCA Business Account
Security Standards, which is incorporated in this Agreement by this reference.
9.0 INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE AGENCIES AND THE ORCA SYSTEM

construed as a transfer or grant of any copyright or other property interest in such data, reports or information. The
Agencies hereby grant to the Business Account a non-exclusive license to use any data, reports or information
provided by the Agencies, via the Business Account Website or otherwise, for any lawful purpose related to the
administration of the transportation benefits program of the Business Account.
9.2 The ORCA System will record data each time an ORCA Business Card is presented to an ORCA device for fare

DocuSign Envelope ID:F636013C-49C6-4E49-B7EF-BA48757DCE5F
For the purpose of preventing fraud,the Primary Contact Person of the Business Account may submit a written request
to the Lead Agency for transaction data related to a specific card number or for a card number linked to a specific
transaction. Fraud is defined as intentional deception or misrepresentation by a person with knowledge that it will result
in an unauthorized benefit to him, her, or some other person. The submittal is not intended to be used to request data
for multiple cards or all cards managed by the Business Account.
The written request shall include the following:
9.2.1 Card number or the date,time and other known details about the specific transaction for which a card
serial number is being requested;
9.2.2 Detailed statement as to why the information is germane to the prevention of fraud; and
9.2.3 The signature of the Primary Contact Person.
If the Lead Agency determines that the subject transaction(s) is linked to a Business Card issued to the Business
Account, the Lead Agency will provide the Business Account with the card serial number linked to the requested
transaction(s). The Business Account agrees that it will use such card serial number information only for purposes of
enforcing the Rules of Use, as provided to the Cardholder. The Business Account must maintain its own records if it
wishes to identify the card serial number issued to an individual.
10.0 PUBLIC RECORDS
The Business Account understands and agrees that all records related to its participation in the ORCA System are

be made available for public inspection and copying upon request, unless the Lead Agency determines they are
exempt from disclosure.
11.0 INDIVIDUAL USE OF BUSINESS CARD AFTER LEAVING A BUSINESS ACCOUNT
The Business Account is encouraged to collect Business Cards from Cardholders who are no longer eligible for the
Business Account's transportation benefits program. In any case,the Business Account is solely responsible for
initiating a Card Block or Product Block in accordance with this Agreement to prevent any continued use of, and
financial liability for, a card that had been distributed to a person who is no longer eligible.
12.0 ORCA SERVICES SUBJECT TO CHANGE
The Agencies seek to continually improve and enhance the ORCA Services.With thousands of employers, schools,
and other entities entering into business account agreements at varying dates in the year, the Agencies are unable to
guarantee to each business account that the ORCA Services will not change during the term of its agreement.The
Business Account understands and agrees that one or more ORCA Services may be changed, suspended or
terminated from time to time without prior notice to, or agreement by, the Business Account, including but not limited to
changes in the look,feel, content and functions of the Business Account Website. If the Business Account is

ORCA BUSINESS CARDHOLDER RULES OF USE
As a Business Account Cardholder, I agree to the following:
1. I understand that the ORCA Business Card is owned by the employer that provided it to me and it has been
provided to me for my personal use only. I agree that I will not sell or transfer my assigned ORCA Card to another
person. If I violate these terms of use, my ORCA Card may be blocked from further use.
2. I will keep my assigned ORCA Business Card secure and in good condition, and I will immediately report a lost,
stolen, or damaged ORCA Business Card to my company's Transportation Coordinator. I understand an ORCA
Business Card will be replaced at the fee charged by my company.
3. I will return my assigned ORCA Business Card upon request or when I leave my employment or otherwise do not
meet the eligibility requirements of my company. If I do not return my ORCA Business
Card, I understand that it may be blocked for further use.
4. I understand that my ORCA Business Card is valid for the following provided by the listed transportation Agencies.
a. 100% of fares on regularly scheduled transportation service on Community Transit, Everett Transit, Kitsap
Transit and Kitsap Ferries, King County Water Taxi, Metro Transit, Pierce Transit, Sound Transit, and Seattle
Streetcar.
b. 100% of vanpool and vanshare fares on vanpool services provided by Community Transit, Kitsap Transit,
- Metro Transit, and Pierce Transit.
5. I understand and will comply with policies of my employer or other institution that provided my ORCA Business
Card.
6. I understand that the ORCA Business Card is not valid for fare payment on transportation services not specified in
Section 4 and I am responsible for paying any additional fares required for services not covered, or not fully covered,
by my assigned ORCA Business Card.
7. I understand that any additional ORCA Products I load onto my assigned ORCA Card will become the property of
the company that owns my ORCA Business Card and the refund, if any, of such products will be made by the company

responsible for any fares required during the replacement period.

Agencies and is accessible to the company that owns my ORCA Business Card.
10. I understand that the ORCA Card must be"tapped"on a card reader to show proof of fare payment or issuance of
a valid fare. Merely showing the ORCA Card on a bus, train, ferry or light rail vehicle does not constitute proof of fare
payment or issuance of a valid fare. I will be subject to a fine if the ORCA Card is not"tapped,"and I understand I will
be personally responsible for any fines that may be imposed.
