Agenda Item No. 5.
Total Portfolio Composition
The portfolio comprises available cash balances from over 100 separate funds. The balances are tracked in the City’sfinancial records individually, but combined for the purpose of investing cash to maximize investment returns. The City’s investment manager invests funds not needed in the near future into securities with maturities of less than five years. The City also utilizes the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), an investment pool operated by the State of California and used by most cities in California to manage the City’s short-term cash flow requirements. Wells Fargo’s“Cash Sweep Program” is the City’sthird investment tool, and it allows the City to earn a return on uninvested cash balances in our General Checking Account by automatically "sweeping" cash balances into a Sweep investment vehicle until such balances are otherwise needed to satisfy obligations arising in the account. The Cash Sweep Program exclusively targets high-quality, short-term, U.S. dollar-denominated money market instruments that consist of U.S. Government obligations and repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government obligations. This complies with our Investment Policy and the California Government Code Section 53607.
Investment Portfolio Performance
As of June 30, 2025, the City’stotal market value (including accrued interest) of operating funds and liquidity investments totaled $154,634,663.87. The book value, or what the City actually paid for the investments, totaled $150,913,261.27. The fair market value of the City’s portfolio, less accrued interest, totaled $153,376,376.64. The value of fixed-income securities may fluctuate with changes in interest rates. As interest rates go up, the market value of the securities may go down, and the reverse is true; when interest rates go down, the market value of the securities may go up. The difference between the book and fair market value is considered an unrealized gain or loss. The unrealized gain for this reporting period is $2,463,115.37. It is important to note that a loss or gain is realized when an investment is redeemed or sold before its maturity date. City’sinvestments are generally retained until the maturity date. Nonetheless, the City may elect to sell an investment before its maturity and record a capital gain or loss to manage the portfolio's quality, liquidity, or yield in response to market conditions or the City’s risk preferences. The portfolio’s total market value (including accrued interest) increased by $2,032,169.57 from the previous quarter’send due to the decline in interest rates and higher investment income.
As of June 30, 2025, the yield to maturity on the portfolio increased to 4.31% from 4.17% on March 31, 2025, due to the proceeds from maturing securities being reinvested at higher interest rates. During the fourth quarter of FY 2024/25, US Treasury yields declined, driven by slowing economic growth and higher inflation expectations. The 2-year US Treasury Note yield decreased to 3.72% from 3.89%, while the 5-year Treasury decreased to 3.80% from 3.95% over the reporting period. Recent economic data suggest slower growth in 2025 and greater market uncertainty as the effects of fiscal policy unfold. This caused continued volatility in the market during the quarter. Some components of inflation have remained sticky, as core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) levels remain above the Federal Reserve’s(Fed) 2% inflation target. Since the Fed began its “quantitativetightening”activity by reducing the US Treasury and Agency Mortgage-Backed Securities on its balance sheet in June 2022, the Fed’s balance sheet reduction program has reduced securities held outright by $2.2 trillion. The portfolio’smarket value benefited from the sector diversification and remains stable due to the high-quality assets contained within the portfolio.
Portfolio Duration
The investment portfolio had an average duration of 1.80 years as of June 30, 2025. The portfolio duration remains within an acceptable range. The City continues to implement a disciplined, conservative approach to its portfolio in this time of financial market volatility.

ECONOMIC UPDATE

▪
▪
▪
Recent economic data suggest slower growth in 2025 and greater market uncertainty as the effects of fiscal policy unfold. Inflationary trends have subsided, but some components remain sticky, and core levels remain above the Fed’s target. The labor market reflects improved balance between supply and demand for workers. While job creation has been robust, continuing jobless claims remain elevated.
Given the economic outlook, we expect gradual normalization of monetary policy and a steepening yield curve.
As broadly anticipated, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) left the Federal Funds Rate unchanged at the range of 4.25 - 4.50% at the June meeting. Fed Chair Powell continued to emphasize the Committee’s “waitand see” approach amidst economic uncertainty that remains elevated but diminished. Federal Reserve officials continued to pencil in two rate cuts in 2025.
US Treasury yields declined in June. The 2-year Treasury yield fell 18 basis points to 3.72%, the 5-year Treasury dropped 17 basis points to
3.80%, and the 10-year Treasury yield also declined 17 basis points to 4.23%. The spread between the 2-year and 10-year Treasury yield points on the curve edged up to +51 basis points at June month-end versus +50 basis points at May month-end. The spread between the 2- year Treasury and 10-year Treasury yield one year ago was -36 basis points. The spread between the 3-month and 10-year Treasury yield points on the curve was -7 basis points in June, versus -6 basis points in May.

The U.S. economy added 147,000 jobs in June, exceeding consensus expectations, and the last two months were revised up by 16,000.
Gains were primarily driven by state and local government education, while job growth in service sectors languished. The three-month moving average and six-month moving average payrolls totaled 150,000 and 130,000 respectively. The unemployment rate declined to
4.1% in June from 4.2% in May, due to a shrinking labor force. The labor participation rate dipped to 62.3%, remaining below the pre- pandemic level of 63.3%. The U-6 underemployment rate, which includes those who are marginally attached to the labor force and employed part time for economic reasons dropped to 7.7% in June. Average hourly earnings fell slightly, marking a 3.7% year-over-year increase.

Advance Retail Sales were down 0.9% month-over-monthin May, further slowing from a downwardly revised -0.1%in April. Declines were led by auto sales, building materials, garden equipment and supplies, and spending at restaurants and bars fell by the most since early 2023. Control group sales, which feed into GDP, were the only bright spot in the report, with a 0.4% increase. On a year-over-year basis, Retail Sales grew 3.3% in May following a 5.0% increase in April. The Conference Board’s Consumer Confidence Index droppedto 93.0 in June from 98.4 in May, as consumers’ assessment of both the current situation and future expectations for income and labor markets soured. While the consumer has been resilient, elevated inflation expectations, concerns about trade policies and tariffs, and general economic and policy uncertainty could pose potential risks to future spending. 0 20

The Conference Board’s Leading Economic Index (LEI) fell by 0.1% in May, following a downwardly revised 1.4% decline in April. The LEI decreased by 4.0% year-over-year. The rebound in the stock market was the primary positive contributor, offset by consumer pessimism, weak new orders in manufacturing, the second consecutive month of rising initial unemployment claims, and a drop in housing permits.
The Chicago Fed National Activity Index (CFNAI) improved to -0.28 in May from a downwardly revised -0.36 in April. The three-month moving average dropped to -0.16 in May from 0.06 in April, indicating slightly below trend growth.

Homebuilder confidence is shaky due to elevated mortgage rates, affordability constraints, and a weakening economic outlook. The Freddie Mac 30-year fixed rate mortgage averaged approximately 6.8% in June. According to the Case-Shiller 20-City Home Price Index, housing prices rose 3.4% year-over-year in April, compared to 4.1% in March. Limited inventory, elevated mortgage rates, and lack of affordability continue to weigh on the housing market.

Inventories and production improved as companies worked through backlogs, while employment and new orders contracted. The ISM Services index increased to 50.8 in June from 49.9 in May, as new orders improved. However, ongoing concerns about the impact of tariffs remain. A reading over 50 indicates expansion, while a reading under 50 indicates contraction.

This marks the first negative quarter since 2022.
The primary driver of the downward revision was weaker personal consumption expenditures. Net exports remained the primary drag on growth, as imports rose sharply in anticipation of higher tariffs. Gross investment contributed positively, powered by business decisions to get ahead of possible cost increases. The consensus projection calls for 2.1% growth for the second quarter and 1.5% for the full year 2025.

In the Summaryof Economic Projections (SEP), Federal Reserve officials continued to pencil in two rate cuts in 2025, while downgrading estimates for economic growth and raising forecasts for both unemployment and inflation this year. The statement indicated that uncertainty about the economic outlook remained elevatedbut had diminished. The monthly redemption capon Treasuries will remain at $5 billion, while the cap on agencies and mortgage-backed securities will be maintained at $35 billion. Since the Fed began its Quantitative Tightening campaign in June 2022, securities holdings have declined by about $2.2 trillion to approximately $6.7 trillion.

IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES
2025 Chandler Asset Management, Inc, An Independent Registered Investment Adviser.
Information contained herein is confidential. Prices are provided by ICE Data Services Inc (“IDS”), an independent pricing source. In the event IDS does not provide a price or if the price provided is not reflective of fair market value, Chandler will obtain pricing from an alternative approved third party pricing source in accordance with our written valuation policy and procedures. Our valuation procedures are also disclosed in Item 5 of our Form ADV Part 2A.
Performance results are presented gross-of-advisory fees and represent the client’s Total Return. The deduction of advisory fees lowers performance results. These results include the reinvestment of dividends and other earnings. Past performance may not be indicative of future results. Therefore, clients should not assume that future performance of any specific investment or investment strategy will be profitable or equal to past performance levels. All investment strategies have the potential for profit or loss. Economic factors, market conditions or changes in investment strategies, contributions or withdrawals may materially alter the performance and results of your portfolio.
Index returns assume reinvestment of all distributions. Historical performance results for investment indexes generally do not reflect the deduction of transaction and/or custodial charges or the deduction of an investment management fee, the incurrence of which would have the effect of decreasing historical performance results. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

Fixed income investments are subject to interest, credit and market risk. Interest rate risk: the value of fixed income investments will decline as interest rates rise. Credit risk: the possibility that the borrower may not be able to repay interest and principal. Low rated bonds generally have to pay higher interest rates to attract investors willing to take on greater risk. Market risk: the bond market in general could decline due to economic conditions, especially during periods of rising interest rates.
Ratings information have been provided by Moody’s, s&P and Fitch through data feeds we believe to be reliable as of the date of this statement, however we cannot guarantee its accuracy.
Security level ratings for U.S. Agency issued mortgage-backed securities “MBS” reflect the issuer rating because the securities themselves are not rated. The issuing U.S. Agency guarantees the full and timely payment of both principal and interest. 39 178

Agenda Item No. 6.
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Diego Chavez, Administrative Services Director
PREPARED BY: Michelle Tamez, Human Resources Analyst
SUBJECT:
Amending and Restating the Comprehensive Pay Schedule Fiscal Year 2025/26
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Resolution No. 25-4880 entitled: A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Murrieta, California, Amending and Restating the Comprehensive Pay Schedule for Fiscal Year 2025/26.
PRIOR ACTION/VOTE
On June 17, 2025, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 25-4844, approving the Comprehensive Pay Schedule for Fiscal Year 2025/26 (Vote: 5-0).
CITY COUNCIL GOAL
Maintain a high performing organization that values fiscal sustainability, transparency, accountability and organizational efficiency.
DISCUSSION
The City of Murrieta (City) maintains a Comprehensive Pay Schedule (Pay Schedule) that is regularly presented to the City Council for review and consideration. Employees of the City receive a rate of pay within the established pay range for their job classification. The Pay Schedule is maintained in compliance with State regulations and is intended to ensure transparency and consistency when reporting compensation for City employees to the California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS).
The Pay Schedule is also intended to satisfy the requirements of the Public Employees Retirement Law and California Code of Regulations (CCR) at 2 CCR 570.5 that public agencies contracting with CalPERS adopt a “PubliclyAvailable Pay Schedule”for purposes of determining an employee’s“compensationearnable,”which is used to calculate retirement benefits.
The positions listed in the Pay Schedule may not necessarily be budgeted or funded in any given fiscal year.
The City Council authorizes and funds specific positions during the adoption of the biennial budget and CITY OF MURRIETA Printed on 8/14/2025Page 1 of 2

Agenda Item No. 6.
ongoing budget updates.
According to the City’sPersonnel Rules (Resolution No. 91-64), the City Manager recommends adjustments to the Pay Schedule as salaries are adjusted and negotiated, and job classifications are created or revised. The proposed Resolution No. 25-4880 (Attachment 1) amends and restates the Pay Schedule for Fiscal Year 2025/26 previously adopted under Resolution No. 25-4844. The changes to the Pay Schedule are described in more detail below.
If the proposed resolution is adopted, a compensation range will be added for the new classification of Capital Projects Program Manager, as recommended by the City Manager in conjunction with the formation of the newly established Municipal Services Department. This new classification will replace the previously authorized Senior Program Manager position, so no additional funding is required. The salary range for this position would be effective August 19, 2025. A revised Schedule of Authorized Positions for Fiscal Year 2025/26, reflecting this change, will be brought back to the City Council as part of the Fiscal Year 2025/26 Q1 Budget Report.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with amending the Pay Schedule. All required funding was included in the Operating Budget for Fiscal Year 2025/26.

Agenda Item No. 8.
DISCUSSION
The United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) administers the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program, which provides annual federal funding to local jurisdictions to support community development activities. The goal of the CDBG Program is to create viable urban communities by providing decent housing, a suitable living environment, and expanded economic opportunities, primarily benefiting low and moderate-income individuals.
Local jurisdictions can use CDBG funds for a wide range of eligible activities. These funds are often used to supplement General Fund expenditures for programs that meet HUD’s objectives and eligibility criteria. A portion of the City of Murrieta's (City) annual allocation is designated for “public service” activities, typically carried out by nonprofit organizations.
Participation in the CDBG Program requires the City to comply with extensive federal administrative and reporting requirements. Although the City has partnered with Riverside County to complete certain components of the program’sadministration, the City remains responsible for several key functions. These include selecting and contracting with nonprofit subrecipients, monitoring program activities, processing reimbursement requests, maintaining program records, and ensuring compliance with HUD regulations.
To support these efforts, the City entered into a professional services agreement with GRC Associates, Inc. (GRC) on March 1, 2023. GRC provides as-needed technical assistance with managing the City’sCDBG Program, including coordination with Riverside County, oversight of public service subrecipients, closing out outstanding reimbursement requests from previous years, and records management.
Since March 2023, GRC has provided services totaling $60,000. This includes an initial agreement for $30,000 and a second agreement for an additional $30,000 for Fiscal Year 2023/24. To continue services, the first amendment to the agreement extended the term through August 31, 2025, and authorized another $30,000 for FY 2024/25, with no change to the scope of services. All expenditures are fully reimbursable through the City’s CDBG administrative allocation from HUD.
A second amendment will extend the agreement through August 31, 2027, and authorize two (2) additional annual allocations of $30,000 for FY 2025/26 and 2026/27. There is no change to the scope of services. As with previous years, the costs incurred through this agreement are eligible for full reimbursement through HUD and will not impact the City’s General Fund.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funding for services was budgeted in FY 2025/26 in account 34100010-60480 in the amount of $30,000.
Future fiscal year allocations will also be included in the regular budgetary process.

FROM: Scott Agajanian, Economic Development Director
PREPARED BY: Martha Coleman, Management Analyst
SUBJECT:
Approve a Deposit/Reimbursement Agreement with Murrieta Hot Springs Resort for On-Call Historical Preservation Consulting Services related to the Mills Act
RECOMMENDATION
Approve the Deposit/Reimbursement Agreement between the City of Murrieta and Murrieta Hot Springs Resort LP in connection with the agreements with Applied EarthWorks, Stantec, and SWCA for on-call historic preservation services required to undertake Mills Act obligations in connection with the Murrieta Hot Springs Resort;
Authorize the Mayor to execute the agreement; and
Upon agreement approval, all costs associated with these services will be funded by Murrieta Hot Springs Resort.
PRIOR ACTION/VOTE
None.
CITY COUNCIL GOAL
Aggressively pursue economic development.
DISCUSSION
The Murrieta Hot Springs Resort LP (MHSR) has inquired with the City of Murrieta (City) about pursuing a Mills Act designation for certain buildings within their property. The Mills Act is a body of California state law, specifically, California Government Code Sections 50280-50290, that encourages the preservation of qualified historic structures by reducing property taxes for owners who agree to rehabilitate and maintain their properties to their historic integrity.
Chapter 16.26 of the Murrieta Municipal Code (MMC) addresses cultural resource preservation, including criteria for designating historic preservation and a process. However, this section of the MMC needs to be CITY OF MURRIETA Printed on 8/14/2025Page 1 of 2

Agenda Item No. 10.
updated, as it has not been revisited since 2001 and some aspects are no longer relevant.
Based on the specialized technical expertise required to assist Murrieta Hot Springs Resort LP with its pursuit of a Mills Act designation, on March 24, 2025, staff issued a Request for Proposals for on-call historic preservation consulting services. The solicitation period closed on April 24, 2025. Nine proposals were received; five were deemed responsive, while four did not meet the minimum required criteria and were disqualified.
Following a thorough evaluation process, three firms were selected to be on-call consultants for historic preservation services based on their qualifications, experience, and overall responsiveness to the scope of work: Stantec Consulting Services, Inc., Applied EarthWorks, Inc., and SWCA Environmental Consultants.
These firms will provide as-needed historic preservation services to support the City’sobligations under the Mills Act and related programs. The value of each of these agreements is less than $75,000 and therefore within the City Manager’s signature authority.
The attached Deposit/Reimbursement Agreement will require MHSR to make and replenish, as needed, a deposit for costs the City will incur with any of these historic preservation consultants as MHSR pursues a Mills Act designation.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no direct fiscal impact on the City’sGeneral Fund. A deposit in the amount of $15,000 has been requested from MHSR to fund the historic preservation consulting services. All costs associated with the services provided by Stantec Consulting Services, Inc., Applied EarthWorks, Inc., and SWCA Environmental Consultants and any other allowable expenses will be paid from this account, in accordance with the terms of the Deposit/Reimbursement Agreement. Additional funds may be required if costs for their services exceed the initial deposit amount.

It TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Bernard Molloy, Fire Chief
PREPARED BY: Bernard Molloy, Fire Chief
SUBJECT:
Cooperative Agreement for Hazardous Material Services between Murrieta Fire & Rescue and Corona Fire Department
RECOMMENDATION
Approve a Cooperative Agreement with the City of Corona for Hazardous Materials Responses; and Authorize the City Manager to execute the Cooperative Agreement.
PRIOR ACTION/VOTE
In 2002, Murrieta Fire joined the County of Riverside Fire Mutual Aid Plan. This document provides an outline of shared responses in Riverside County.
On June 6, 2023, the Murrieta City Council approved an automatic aid agreement with Riverside County Fire (5-0).
CITY COUNCIL GOAL
Provide a high level of innovative public safety.
DISCUSSION
Murrieta Fire & Rescue (MFR) is dedicated to providing comprehensive emergency services but currently does not maintain its own Hazardous Materials (Hazmat) Response Team. To ensure robust capabilities for specialized incidents, MFR relies on and actively seeks inter-agency cooperation.
Emergency response in California operates under the California Emergency Services Act and the Master Mutual Aid Agreement, which establishes a tiered system where local jurisdictions first utilize their own resources, then those within their Operational Area (County), and finally State resources like CAL FIRE.
Riverside County also has a Fire Mutual Aid Plan, which allows the Riverside County Fire Department to provide Hazmat resources; these are typically dispatched as "Assistance-by-Hire" (ABH), meaning the requesting agency is immediately responsible for associated costs.
To enhance Murrieta's Hazardous Materials response capabilities and provide an additional, more agile option, MFR has developed a Cooperative Agreement with the City of Corona Fire Department. The City of Corona CITY OF MURRIETA Printed on 8/14/2025Page 1 of 2

Agenda Item No. 11.
MFR has developed a Cooperative Agreement with the City of Corona Fire Department. The City of Corona maintains a Type II State Certified Hazardous Materials Response Team. This agreement allows Murrieta to access Corona's specialized Hazardous Materials team for incidents within MFR’s jurisdiction.
This Cooperative Agreement with Corona Fire Department is a strategic enhancement that augments Murrieta's existing emergency response framework; it does not replace the vital role of CAL FIRE or the broader mutual aid system. Instead, it provides Murrieta with another pre-arranged option for hazardous materials responses. While Corona's response is voluntary and contingent on their availability, the agreement outlines that no payment is required for the first six hours of assistance, after which it reverts to an Assistance- by-Hire model. This arrangement offers a cost-effective and specialized initial response, complementing the larger-scale support available through the state mutual aid system for more extensive or prolonged incidents.
This proactive measure ensures Murrieta has diversified and specialized resources readily available. This Cooperative Agreement is a proactive measure to enhance public safety by ensuring access to specialized hazardous materials response, complementing existing mutual aid frameworks, and formalizing the terms of such critical assistance.
FISCAL IMPACT
Acceptance of this Cooperative Agreement has a potential fiscal impact only in the event that the Corona Fire Department's Hazmat Team responds to an incident within Murrieta's jurisdiction for a duration exceeding six hours. In such cases, the City of Murrieta would be responsible for "Assistance-by-Hire" costs from the time of initial dispatch at Corona Fire Department's adopted hourly rate, plus the cost of disposable supplies and materials.

Agenda Item No. 12.
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Javier Carcamo, Finance Director
PREPARED BY: Cynthia Rockwell, Purchasing and Contracts Coordinator SUBJECT:
Agreement with J.P. Morgan for General Banking and Procurement Card Services
RECOMMENDATION
Approve a five year agreement for general banking and procurement card services provided by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., with the option of two (2) one-year extensions; and Authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement and all other necessary documents to implement banking products and services.
PRIOR ACTION/VOTE
On September 6, 2016, the City Council approved Resolution No. 16-3615, approving a five-year agreement with Wells Fargo (Vote: 5-0).
CITY COUNCIL GOAL
Maintain a high performing organization that values fiscal sustainability, transparency, accountability and organizational efficiency.
BACKGROUND
On October 28, 2015, staff issued a formal Request for Proposal for banking services and received two (2) proposals. After evaluating those proposals, Wells Fargo was chosen as the most qualified firm to handle the City of Murrieta’s (City) general banking needs.
On September 6, 2016, the City Council approved Resolution No. 16-3615, approving a five year agreement with Wells Fargo. Two (2) amendments extended the term of the Wells Fargo agreement. The first amendment extended the term period from 2021 through 2023. The second amendment extended the term period from 2023 through 2025, which is set to terminate on September 5, 2025.
On February 4, 2025, a formal Request for Proposal (RFP) was published by the City’sFinance Department for a General Banking, Merchant Services, and Purchasing Card Program. The City received six proposals in CITY OF MURRIETA Printed on 8/14/2025Page 1 of 3

Agenda Item No. 12.
for a General Banking, Merchant Services, and Purchasing Card Program. The City received six proposals in response to the RFP. The six firms that responded are listed below, in alphabetical order:
1. HCN
2. JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., (J.P. Morgan)
3. Pacific Premier Bank
4. PNC
5. US Bank
6. Wells Fargo
The proposals were evaluated by a selection committee, comprised of the City’sDirector of Finance, Finance Manager, Accounting Supervisor, and Purchasing and Contracts Coordinator. The proposals were evaluated based on the following criteria, and scored as follows:
· Proper submission and completeness of proposal;
· Demonstrated understanding of the requested services; · Overall capabilities to perform the required services; · Demonstrated experience;
· Cost-effectiveness of the fees charged; and
· Favorable reference checks.
In-person and virtual demonstrations were conducted with the four highest-ranking firms. As part of the evaluation process, following proposal submission, demonstrations, and initial evaluations, the selection committee requested the top three firms to submit their best and final offers. These focused on key areas such as the purchasing card program, account analysis (armored services inclusion), pricing, sweep account interest rate, and other products aimed at enhancing service quality and cost efficiency.
After a comprehensive evaluation of the proposals, demonstrations, and final and best offer, J.P. Morgan was identified as the most responsive and most qualified firm to provide banking services to the City. J.P. Morgan is one of the world’slargest providers of cash management services, serving over 2,100 public sector agencies.
The online banking services, reporting capabilities, and procurement card program provided by J.P. Morgan will be a substantial upgrade to the City’scurrent processes and services, creating increased efficiency and continuity. In addition to these solutions, J.P. Morgan has demonstrated their commitment to delivering a high level of customer service and further innovation in the City’s banking and cash management operations.
While J.P. Morgan did not submit the lowest-priced proposal, it scored the highest during evaluations conducted by the selection committee. Staff recognizes J.P. Morgan as possessing the most robust and beneficial services and platforms that best align with the City’s primary objectives of fiscal sustainability, efficiency, and transparency.
Purchasing Card Program
All proposals were evaluated with a focus on the purchasing card program and its supporting platform. The City uses a purchasing card program for small-dollar purchases. The current process is hybrid, with limited online capabilities and a manual process. Currently, two financial institutions issue credit cards to City employees and virtual cards for utility payments.
Following completion of the general banking services transition, the Finance Department plans to consolidate these programs into a single commercial card solution and platform to strengthen financial controls and reduce administrative workload. J.P. Morgan’s purchasing card solution offers a significant improvement by automating the approval and reconciliation of credit card transactions through its online platform. Employees can upload receipts and assign expense account codes electronically using either a desktop interface or CITY OF MURRIETA Printed on 8/14/2025Page 2 of 3

can upload receipts and assign expense account codes electronically using either a desktop interface or mobile app.
Merchant Services
All proposals were evaluated based on the Merchant Services they offered. Staff felt that Wells Fargo's services met the City’s needs and provided staff from multiple departments with the highest level of functionality from their equipment and back-end support. Staff is working with Wells Fargo to maintain those services under a new or amended agreement. As such, Merchant Services are not included in the J.P. Morgan agreement.
The term of the Wells Fargo Agreement will expire prior to the implementation of the new banking services.
Staff intends to work with Wells Fargo to enter into a short-term agreement for continued banking services or pay on a monthly basis until we complete the implementation.
Staff is proposing a five year agreement with J.P. Morgan, with the option of two (2) one-year extensions, for general banking and procurement card services.
FISCAL IMPACT
The banking services outlined in this RFP are projected to cost approximately $8,400 annually, totaling around $42,000 over five years. As part of J.P. Morgan’sfinal and best offer, their proposal includes a $8,000 fee waiver, reducing the net five year cost to approximately $34,000. Additionally, the proposal includes transition and implementation credits of $6,000 and $1,000, respectively, helping to offset any one-time costs.
The City currently pays approximately $18,500 annually for general banking services with Wells Fargo. By using J.P. Morgan for these services, the City will be saving approximately $10,100 annually. Funding is available in the Fiscal Year 2025/26 and Fiscal Year 2026/27 operating budgets for general banking services, and a budget request will be included in future biennial budgets for the remaining years of the agreement.

Cynthia Rockwell
Purchasing & Contracts Coordinator
1 Town Square
Murrieta, CA 92562
Dear Cynthia:
On behalf of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., (J.P. Morgan), thank you for the opportunity to present our response to the City of Murrieta’s (the City’s) Request for Proposal (RFP) for Banking and Merchant Services on March 10,2025. It has been our distinct privilege and pleasure to engage in conversation with the City over the last several months to refine our proposal in a Best and Final Offer (BAFO) process.
We offer the following as clarifications/updates to the original terms of our proposal dated 3/10/25:
1) Purchase card rebates in alignment with the grid on p. 268 of RFP response. Additional rebate can be earned by either paying faster (up to +14 bps additional) and/or implementing JPMorgan’s virtual card solution. Our virtual card solution is a leader in the market and on average, we grow program spend of +189% versus other banks. In short, we would be happy to help the City drive spend adoption resulting in increased rebate revenue.
2) Ability for armored car fees to be included in account analysis. 3) Adjustment of the contract term from 3 years with 2, 1-year extensions, to 5 years with 2, 1-year extensions
4) Expansion of the account analysis fee waiver from 9 months or $6,000 (whichever comes first) to 12 months valued at $8,000 (whichever comes first)
5) Revision of the Hybrid DDA interest offered to the City to:
a. 3.85% on balances of $110M or greater
b. 3.75% on balances over $75M
c. 3.50% on balances below $75M
As discussed, our goal would be to maintain a dialogue so that we are aligned with the City’s plans in terms of liquidity management. Similarly, the bank manages its rates actively and the above rate offerings are subject to adjustment based on market conditions. While consistency is our goal, our approach is to assess trends over time and adjust accordingly in the context of an open dialogue with the City.
6) In addition to the City’s Banking Services Bid Form included in Exhibit A of our RFP response, we had included a Pricing Proforma in Appendix 3 which included pricing for some elements that could not be included in the Bid Form. We have attached an updated proforma that excludes the cost to insure the balances (“Balance Based Charges” on page 3 of the proforma in the amount of $11,753.42). The City

still will be paying this pass-through cost to insure deposits, however this cost (approximately 13 basis points) was already deducted from the Earnings Credit Rate (ECR) we originally offered of 2.92%. In other words, our ECR offering is essentially 3.05% but is 2.92% minus that cost. Hopefully this should make it easier to compare total monthly banking fees across bank proposals. JPMorgan’s estimated monthly banking fees based on volumes provided are approximately $700.
We stand ready to answer any questions or provide any additional clarifying information needed. Please do not hesitate to contact me should the need arise.
Sincerely,

PN: 3177711 DOC ID: 1 Page 2 of 9
of the Service. Upon receipt of an Instruction, the Bank will use the security procedures to verify that the Instruction is effective as that of the Customer. A security procedure may require the use of algorithms or other codes, identifying words or numbers, encryption, call back procedures or similar security devices. It is understood that the purpose of the security procedure is to verify the authenticity of, and not to detect errors in, Instructions. The Customer shall safeguard the security procedure and make it available only to persons that it has authorized. Any Instruction, the authenticity of which has been verified through such security procedure, shall be effective as that of the Customer, whether or not authorized.
Security Procedure for Verbal or Written Instructions. Unless the Customer and the Bank have agreed in writing to an alternate security procedure, the Bank may verify the authenticity of verbal or written (including those transmitted by facsimile) funds transfer Instructions by telephonic call-back to an Authorized Person. The Customer agrees that this security procedure is commercially reasonable for such Instructions.
Security Procedure for Instructions Received through Electronic Channels. If the Bank receives an Instruction in the name of the Customer by means of any of Bank’s electronic channels , the Customer’s SWIFT BIC codes , or other electronic channels through which the Bank has notified Customer that it will accept Instructions, then Bank may rely on authentication procedures established by such electronic channels as the security procedure. Any such Instruction shall be deemed to have been given by an Authorized Person and shall be effective as that of the Customer, whether or not authorized. By using an electronic channel to provide Instructions to the Bank, the Customer agrees that this security procedure is commercially reasonable for such Instructions.
Security Procedure for Third Party Instructions. The security procedures applicable to Instructions from any Third Party shall be those security procedures established by the Bank with the Third Party. Any Instruction that the Bank receives from the Third Party, the aut henticity of which has been verified through such security procedure, shall be effective as that of the Cus tomer, whether or not authorized, and shall be deemed an Instruction given on behalf of the Customer for all purposes of these Account Terms. The Bank is authorized to act upon any Instructions received via any of the SWIFT BIC codes specified in an Access Request whether or not such SWIFT BIC codes are associated with the Customer or the Third Party.
2.2 Confirmations. If the Customer, other than with respect to security procedures, chooses to confirm an Instruction, any confirmation must be clearly marked as a confirmation, and, if there is any discrepancy between an Instruction and a confirmation, the terms of the Instruction shall prevail. Subject to Section 2.1 (Security Procedure for Verbal or Written Instructions), the Bank may, at its option, confirm or clarify any request or Instruction using any means, even if a security procedure appears to have been followed. If the Bank is not satisfied with any confirmation or clarification, it may decline to honor the Instruction.
3. Deposits.
3.1 Processing Incoming Items. All Items deposited or cashed are received for collection only and are subject to receipt of final payment.

The Bank chooses the method of collecting Items and may use other banks in the process. The Bank will present Items in accordance with the custom and market practice of the jurisdictions in which the Items are handled for collection. The Bank is not responsible for actions or omissions of other banks, nor for the loss or destruction of any Item in the possession of other banks or in transit. The Customer shall use reasonable efforts to assist the Bank in locating or obtaining replacements of Items lost while in the Bank ’s possession. For purposes of determining when an Item is sent to the Customer, the provision of an image of the Item or information identifying the Item (e.g., Item number, amount, date of Item) is a sufficient substitute for the actual Item.
3.2 Availability of Funds; Credits Not Received. Credits and deposits to an Account will be available in accordance with the Bank ’s availability policy and applicable law. If the Bank credits an Account: (i) in contemplation of receiving funds for the Customer ’s credit and those funds are not actually received by the Bank; or (ii) in reliance on a transaction which is subsequently returned, reversed, set aside or revoked, or if the Bank does not receive funds for the Customer’s credit for value on the date advised by or on behalf of the Customer, or if final settlement is not received by the Bank for any reason, then the Bank shall be entitled to debit any Account of the Customer with the amount previously credited and/or with any other charges incurred, even if doing so creates or increases an overdraft.

The Customer may reverse, amend, cancel or revoke any Instructions only with the consent of the Bank and, if applicable, the beneficiary’s bank. The Bank will debit the Account for the amount of each funds transfer Instruction accepted by the Bank, and the Customer authorizes the Bank to debit the Account for , or deduct from the amount of the funds transfer, all associated fees , including debit and credit processing charges.

The Bank may generate additional profit or loss in connection with the Bank’s execution of a foreign exchange transaction or management of its risk related thereto in addition to the applicable spread.

If a holder who is not a deposit customer of the Bank presents an Item drawn on the Account for cash, the Bank may refuse to cash the Item, or may charge the holder a fee for cashing the Item.
4.6 Signatures. If the Customer establishes an Account which purports to: (i) require two or more signatures on Items drawn on the Account, or (ii) limits the amount for which an Item can be issued, the Customer acknowledges that any such requirements are solely for the Customer’s own internal control purposes. The Customer agrees that, provided that the Bank follows its usual and customary procedures for pr ocessing and paying Items, the Bank will not be liable for paying any Item (a) lacking the required number of signatures, or (b) in an amount exceeding the applicable limit.
4.7 Fraudulent Items. The Bank provides Services to which the Customer may subscribe, such as Positive Pay and Reverse Positive Pay, which are reasonably designed to prevent payment of unauthorized or altered Items. Customer agrees that failure to use such Services wi ll constitute Customer negligence contributing to the making of an unauthorized signature or the alteration of an Item, and the Customer will assume the risk that Items paid against its Account may be unauthorized or altered. In that event, the Cus tomer will be precluded from asserting any claims against the Bank for paying any unauthorized, altered, counterfeit or other fraudulent Items The Bank shall not be required to re-credit Customer’s Account or otherwise have any liability for paying such Items to the extent such Services would likely have prevented such loss.
4.8 Obscured Endorsements. The Customer assumes responsibility for losses that the Customer or the Bank may incur as the result of processing delays caused by the Customer’s: (i) issuance of an Item in such a manner that information, marks or bands on the back of the Item obscure endorsements; or (ii) placement of an endorsement on the back of the Item which obscures other endorsements.
4.9 Negotiation Outside of U.S. If an Item is transferred or negotiated outside of the U.S. and is subsequently sent to the Bank for deposit, collection or payment in the U.S., the Customer shall be deemed to make, to the Bank, the transfer and presentment warranties under the Rules & Regulations, as if such Item were negotiated or otherwise transferred in the U.S.

A stop payment Instruction from the Customer will be effective with respect to an Item if: (i) the Bank has a reasonable opportunity to act on such Instruction prior to its payment or encashment, which shall be at least one (1) full Business Day following the Business Day on which the Bank received the Instruction; and (ii) the Instruction is in the form required by the Bank, the information is complete and is delivered to the location designated by the Bank. For purposes of this Section, “Business Day” means a day on which the Bank is generally open for business in the jurisdiction where the Account is maintained. Stop payment Instructions, unless otherwise provided, will be valid for one (1) year and will automatically renew up to six (6) additional years unless the Bank receives Customer’s revocation of a stop payment Instruction. The Customer may request, through the Bank’s call center or other authorized representative, a non-renewable stop payment, which will be effective for a period of time agreed to by the Bank. The Bank shall not be liable for any Item properly paid or cashed prior to the effective time of a stop payment request. The Customer acknowledges that a stop payment instruction does not limit or vary its obligation to pay the s ubject Item and, notwithstanding a stop payment instruction, the Bank may properly pay such an item to a person entitled to enforce it.
4.11 Standard of Care. Any Item issued by the Customer drawn on its Account shall be deemed to be endorsed in the name of the payee if: the Item is endorsed or deposited into an account in a name that is substantially similar to that of the payee; the payee is a fictitious person; the Customer was wrongfully or erroneously induced to issue the Item payable to the stated payee; the deposit of the item was accomplished by an employee entrusted with responsibility for the Item or person working in concert with such an employee; or the Customer or payee failed to act with ordinary care with respect to the Item. The Bank shall not be liable for any loss caused by the alteration or unauthorized signature or endorsement on any Item issued by the Customer, unless the Customer establishes that the Bank failed to handle the Item with ordinary care, and that such failure substantially contributed to the loss. If the Bank’s failure to act with ordinary care substantially contributed to the loss on the item, the loss shall be allocated between the Customer and the Bank based upon the extent to which their respective failures to exercise ordinary care contributed to the loss. The Bank may process any Item by electronic means and is not required to inspect the Item payed by automated payment processing.
4.12 Non-Standard Items. The Customer assumes responsibility for losses that the Customer or the Bank may incur as the result of Customer issuing Items that do not meet industry standards for Items (including, without limitation, any Item printed without magnetic ink character recognition (MICR), any Item which has a MICR line in a location unacceptable to Bank, or any Item which may be printed on various printi ng devices that allow size or font to vary).

Section 5 of the Account Terms (Funds Transfer Instructions) is amended by adding the following provisions:
5.4 Foreign Exchange.
(d) If the Bank accepts a funds transfer Instruction issued in the Customer’s name for payment from its Account in the Account Currency to a beneficiary account the Bank determines is a Non Account Currency account, the Bank is authorized in its discretion to enter into a foreign exchange transaction to convert the Account Currency funds into an amount of the relevant Non-Account Currency of such beneficiary account and complete the funds transfer as provided in Section 5.4(a) above.
5.6 Funds Transfer by Check. If the Customer, through the Bank’s funds transfer services, requests that payment be made by check, the Customer authorizes the Bank to debit the Customer’s Account on receipt of the Instruction and to issue a check as agent for the Customer in accordance with the Instruction. If the Customer requests the Bank to place a stop payment on the check before the check has been presented for payment, such request must be clearly identified as a stop payment request, including the reference number given for the transaction, and it must be received by the Bank at a time and in a manner designated by the Bank from time to time.

5.7 Credit Entries Received Through Automated Clearing House (ACH) System. Credit given by the Bank to the Customer for an ACH credit entry shall be provisional, until the Bank receives final payment. If the Bank does not receive final payment, the Bank may revoke the provisional credit and charge back the amount of the entry to the Account, or obtain a refund from the Customer, in which case the originator of the credit entry shall not be deemed to have paid the Customer the amount of such entry. The Bank shall not be obligated to notify the Customer of the receipt of a payment order or ACH entry for credit or debit to an Account.
5.8 Same Day Amend and Cancel. The Customer may subscribe to a service to enable same day amendment and cancellation of payment orders.
All cancellation or amendment messages sent to the Bank shall be in the format specified by the Bank and must be received by the Bank no later than such time as may be established by the Bank upon notice to the Customer.
5.9 Priority/Timed. The Bank will determine the order in which it processes payment orders. If the Customer’s payment order bears the codeword “PRIORITY” in such field as the Bank specifies, the Bank will use reasonable efforts to execute such payment order in advance of the Customer’s standard payment orders. If the Customer’s payment order bears the codeword “TIMED” in such field as the Bank specifies, the Bank will endeavor, but will have no obligation, to process the payment order by the time requested by the Customer within the payment order. For “TIMED” payment orders, funds in the Customer’s Account are reserved by the Bank on the payment value date until processed. For the avoidance of doubt, all payment orders are subject to the Bank’s acceptance, and the Bank will have no liability for failure to process payments by the time requested by the Customer.
5.10 Real Time Payments. Payments received through the Real Time Payment System operated by The Clearing House Payments Company LLC ("RTP System") will be processed pursuant to the RTP Operating Rules and any other applicable Rules & Regulations, to which t he Customer agrees to be bound.

6.4 Earnings Credit Account Analysis.
(1) The Customer may instruct the Bank to calculate and apply the Earnings Credit Account Analysis service (the “ECR Service”) on eligible Accounts. The Bank will calculate a credit (the “Earnings Credit”) by applying an earnings credit rate (the “ECR”) to all or a portion of the balances held in the eligible Account (the “ECR Balance”).
(2) The Bank will apply the Earnings Credit calculated for each billing period as an offset (an “ECR Application”) against fees and charges actually incurred by the Customer during the same billing period for the use of the Bank’s products or services, including, fees and charges related to certain products or services of the Bank and/or its affiliates (the “Charges”). The Bank shall determine the manner and sequence of the ECR Application in its sole discretion .

T he Customer remains responsible for paying all remaining Charges after the ECR Application.
(3) The Customer hereby acknowledges and agrees that: (i) Earnings Credit is not interest for tax purposes and, unlike interest from a tax perspective, is not and will not be paid by the Bank to the Customer and has no equivalent cash value, (ii) Earnings Credit earned by the Customer may be utilized in an ECR Application against Charges owed by a different affiliate, subsidiary or related entity that agreed to participate in this ECR structure by executing the required terms; and (iii) various branches, subsidiaries and certain affiliates of the Bank may transfer to any other branch, subsidiary or affiliate of the Bank (a) any Earnings Credit earned by the Customer or any o f its subsidiaries, affiliates or related entities and/or (b) their respective rights to receive payment in relation to Charges in curred by the Customer or its affiliates, subsidiaries, or related entities who are participating in the ECR Service.

no representation as to how the ECR Service or the Earnings Credit will be interpreted or treated for legal, tax, accounting or any other purpose.
(5) The Bank, in its sole discretion, may terminate the ECR Service for any reason immediately. The Customer may terminate the ECR Service at any time upon notice to the Bank, provided, however that t he Bank shall have a reasonable opportunity to act upon any termination request.
Section 7 of the Account Terms (Account Statements) is amended by adding the following provisions:
7.2 Images Sufficient. The Customer acknowledges that Account Statements and images of paid Items are available to it and are sufficient to allow it to make all examinations and reports of Account activity including errors, as required in this Section.

The Customer must notify the Bank in writing of any unauthorized, improper, or missing endorsements within six (6) months after the date of the Account Statement on which the Item was reported to have been paid. The Customer must provide the Bank with all information necessary for the Bank to investigate any claim based upon an endorsement or Error and must provide all supporting evidence that the Bank requests. Failure to comply with the time frames set forth above shall be deemed conclusive proof that the Customer failed to exercise reasonable care and promptness in examining Account Statements and paid Items or identifying Errors and that such failure may cause subsequent loss to the Bank. If the Customer fails to comply with the notice requirements set forth above, the Bank is not required to reimburse the Customer for the Customer’s claimed loss and the Customer shall be barred from bringing any action against the Bank.
7.4 Inactive Accounts. If an Account has no activity other than charges assessed or interest credited by the Bank for a period of six (6) or more months, the Bank is not required to provide an Account statement until additional activity occurs in the Account.

The Customer agrees to comply at all times with such restrictions. Exceeding these withdrawal limits may result in the Bank converting the savings account into a non-interest bearing demand deposit account, with any attendant changes in pricing and account terms and conditions. Further, the Bank is required by U.S. law to reserve the right to require at least seven (7) days’ notice prior to a withdrawal from a savings account (including a savings sub-account) or an interest-bearing negotiable order of withdrawal account (“NOW Account”).
15.6 NOW Accounts. The Customer, if eligible, may open a NOW Account. There is no limit on the number of withdrawals that the Customer may make from the demand deposit or NOW sub-account.
15.7 Administrative Subaccounts. The Bank is authorized, for regulatory reporting and internal accounting purposes, to divide an Account: (i) in the case of a demand deposit checking Account, into a non-interest bearing demand deposit sub-account and a non-interest bearing savings sub- account; (ii) in the case of a NOW Account, into an interest bearing NOW sub-account and an interest bearing savings sub-account, and, in both cases, to transfer funds on a daily basis between these sub- accounts in accordance with U.S. law at no cost to the Customer. The Bank will record the sub-accounts and any transfers between them on the Bank’s books and records only. The sub-accounts and any transfers between them will not affect the Account number, balance requirement or use of the Account, except as described herein.
15.8 Savings Subaccounts. The Bank will establish a target balance for the Customer’s demand deposit or NOW sub-account, which it may change at any time. To the extent funds in the demand deposit or NOW sub- account exceed the target balance, the excess will be transferred to the Customer’s savings sub-account, unless the maximum number of transfers from the savings sub-account for that calendar month or statement cycle have already occurred. If withdrawals from the demand deposit or NOW sub-account exceed the available balance in the demand deposit or NOW sub-account, funds from the Customer’s savings sub-account will be transferred to the demand deposit or NOW sub-account up to the 281
PN: 3177711 DOC ID: 2 Page 5 of 8
entire balance of available funds in the savings sub- account to cover the shortfall and to replenish any target balance that the Bank has established for the demand deposit or NOW sub-account. If a sixth transfer is needed during a calendar month or statement cycle, it will be for the entire balance in the Customer’s savings sub- account, and such funds will remain in the demand deposit or NOW sub- account for the remainder of the calendar month or statement cycle.
15.9 Branch Designation. The Bank, for its administrative purposes may designate a branch of the Bank as the branch of record of an Account which may be different from the branch at which the Account is opened.

15.10 No Fiduciary Relationship . Bank’s relationship with Customer concerning the Accounts is that of a debtor and creditor. No fiduciary, quasi - fiduciary or other special relationship exists between Bank and Customer or any third parties regarding the Accounts.

Each of the Customer and the Bank irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any State or Federal court sitting in the City of New York, New York over any action, suit, proceeding, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to the Account Terms which includes this Addendum. The rights and remedies of the Bank under this Addendum, the Account Terms, the Account Documentation, the Service Terms, and any other agreement by the Customer in favor of the Bank are in addition to the rights and remedies of the Bank under applicable law (as provided above in this Section), are cumulative and may be exercised successively or concurrently, and are retained by the Bank.

17.16 Beneficial Ownership.

17.21 FDIC Part 370 Disclosure. If the Customer’s Account is eligible for “pass through” deposit insurance from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) as set forth in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and 12 CFR § 330, then the Customer acknowledges and agrees that if the Bank becomes insolvent or enters into receivership (hereinafter a “Bank Receivership”), the Customer will: (a) cooperate fully with the Bank and the FDIC in connection with determining the insured status of funds in each Account, and (b) provide the FDIC with the information that identifies each beneficial owner and its interest in the funds in each such Account within 24 hours of the Bank Receivership, unless it falls within one of the enumerated exceptions in 12 CFR 370.5(b). The information described in (b) must be sent to the Bank in the format specified by the FDIC (see: www.fdic.gov/regulations/resources/recordkeeping/index.html). The Bank shall provide the Customer an opportunity to validate its capability to deliver the information described in (b) in the format specified by the FDIC so that a timely calculation of deposit insurance coverage for the Account can be completed.
The Customer further acknowledges and agrees that following a Bank Receivership: (i) a hold will be placed on each Account on ce a receiver of the Bank is appointed so that the FDIC can conduct the deposit insurance determination and such hold will not be r eleased until the FDIC obtains the necessary data to enable the FDIC to calculate the deposit insurance coverage for each Account; (ii) its failure to provide the necessary data to the FDIC may result in a delay in receipt of insured funds and legal claims against the Customer from the beneficial owners of the funds in the applicable Account; and (iii) failure to provide the data the FDIC requires may result in the applicable Account being frozen until the information is received, delaying receipt of FDIC insurance proceeds.
Notwithstanding other provisions in this Agreement, this section survives after the FDIC is appointed as the Bank’s receiver, and the FDIC is considered a third party beneficiary of this section.

AVAILABILITY POLICY - FOR ACCOUNTS MAINTAINED IN THE U.S.
The Bank’s policy is to make funds available to the Customer on the same, next or second business day after the day of deposit depending on the type of deposit and when the deposit is made as described below. If the Customer will need the funds from a deposit immediately, the Customer should ask the Bank when the funds will be available.
A. Determining the Day of a Deposit. If a deposit is made to an account on a business day before the Bank’s cutoff time established for that location (which will be no earlier than 2 p.m. local time), then the Bank will consider that day to be the day of deposit. H owever, if a deposit is made after the cutoff time or on a day that is not a business day, then the Bank will consider the deposit to have been made no later than the next business day. For determining the availability of deposits, every day is a business day, except Saturdays, Sundays, and federal holidays.
Availability with respect to any deposit will be determined by the location of the banking center or other facility where the deposit was received.
For deposits made at the Bank’s automated teller machines (ATMs) the cutoff time is 11 p.m. Eastern Time unless otherwise noted on the ATM screen.
B. Same Day Availability. Funds from the following deposits made at a banking center or at an ATM that do not require deposit envelopes will be available on the business day the Bank determines the deposit is made:
• Cash;
• Wire transfers; and
• Electronic direct deposits to an account.
C. Next Day Availability. Funds from the following deposits are available on the first business day after the business day the Bank determines the deposit is made:
• U.S. Treasury checks that are payable to the Customer; • Checks drawn on a Bank affiliate that holds the applicable account (excluding a Controlled Disbursement site); and • At least, the first $275 from a day’s total deposits.
If the deposit is made in person to a Bank employee, funds from the following deposits are also available on the first business day after the business day the Bank determines the deposit is made:
• State and local government checks that are payable to the Customer, if a special deposit slip, available upon request at any Bank banking center is used;
• Cashier’s, certified, and teller’s checks that are payable to the Customer, if a special deposit slip, available upon request at any Bank banking center, is used; and
• Federal Reserve Bank checks, Federal Home Loan Bank checks, and postal money orders, if these items are payable to the Customer.
If a special deposit slip is not used, availability of funds from these deposits will follow the schedule identified in the A vailability of Other Check Deposits section below.
D. Availability of Other Check Deposits. Generally, funds from all other deposits of checks drawn on banks (as defined in Federal Reserve Regulation CC) will be available no later than the second business day after the day of deposit. Checks that require special handling may receive delayed availability. The amount of funds available to the Customer will be reduced by the amount of any deposited check that is returned unpaid. If the Bank reprocesses the check, the funds will become available no later than the second business day after the business day in which the check is reprocessed.
E. Longer Delays May Apply. In some cases the Bank may not make all of the funds that are deposited by check available. Depending on the type of check deposited, funds may not be available as set forth above. However, the first $275 of the aggregate deposit will be available on the first business day after the day of deposit.
If the Bank is not going to make all of the funds from a deposit available at the times shown above, it will notify the Customer and specify when the funds will be available. If a deposit is not made directly to a Bank employee, or if the Bank decides to take this action after the Customer has left the premises, the Bank will mail or otherwise send the notice to the Customer by the business day after the day of deposit.
Funds deposited by check may be delayed for a longer period under the following circumstances:
• The Bank believes a deposited check will not be paid; • Deposited checks for all of the Customer’s accounts total more than $6,725 in any one day; • The Customer redeposited a check that has been returned unpaid; • The Customer has overdrawn one or more of its accounts repeatedly in the last six months; or • There is an emergency, such as failure of communications or computer equipment.
In such circumstances, funds will generally be available no later than the seventh business day after the day of deposit. Inc lement weather or transportation problems may lead to additional delays under certain availability schedules. Customer may have specific availability schedules related to a banking service.
284
PN: 3177711 DOC ID: 2 Page 8 of 8
F. Special Rules for New Accounts. If the account is a new account, the following special rules may apply during the first thirty days the account is open:
• Funds from deposits of the first $ 6,725 of that day’s total deposits of cashier’s, certified, teller’s, traveler’s and federal, state and local government checks payable to the Customer will be available on the first business day after the day of deposit. The excess over $6,725 will be available no later than the ninth business day after the day of deposit. If the deposit of checks (other than U.S. Treasury checks) is not made in person to one of the Bank’s employees, the first $6,725 may not be made available until the second business day after the day of deposit; and
• Funds from all other check deposits will be made available no later than the fifteenth business day after the day of deposit.
G. Large Dollar Deposits. The U.S. Federal Reserve Banks will not forward process any Item over $99,999,999.99 and considers such Items as “non-cash items.” Such Items should not be deposited in the Account. If Customer does deposit such an Item, the Bank may refuse to process such Item or handle it as a collection Item. If handled as a collection Item, Customer credit and availability will be deferred accordingly.

SERVICE TERMS – CONSOLIDATED SERVICE TERMS BOOKLET
The services described herein (each a “Service”) are subject to the Bank’s Account Terms (as may be amended from time to time), which are hereby incorporated by reference into each Service Terms. By using any of the Services described hereunder, the Customer acknowledges that it has received and agreed to the Account Terms, as supplemented by these Service Terms. Capitalized terms in the Service Terms, unless otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings set forth in the Account Terms
ACH ORIGINATION SERVICE TERMS V2.2_10_28_22
The origination of ACH Entries and the transmission and issuance of other transactions and information will be pursuant to these Service Terms and the Operating Rules and Guidelines (collectively the "Rules") of the National Automated Clearing House Association. Capitalized terms used in these ACH Service Terms, unless otherwise defined in the account documentation or these Service Terms, shall have the same meanings as set forth in the Rules.
Customer and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Bank) agree to comply with and be bound by the Rules as in effect from time to time.
1. Service. Bank provides automated clearing house (“ACH”) origination services that will enable Customer to do one or more of the following:
• originate ACH Debit Entries;
• originate ACH Credit Entries; and
• instruct the Bank to issue or transmit prenotifications, reversals, requests for return, notifications of change or other information pertaining to the Entries.
Origination of ACH Credit Entries and origination of ACH Debit Entries are two separate services and approval or set up for one ACH service does not automatically create the ability to utilize the other. Further, the Customer’s origination of WEB, TEL and IAT Entries r equires additional pre- approval by the Bank; if the Customer attempts to originate such Entries without first obtaining such approval, the Entries m ay be suspended, delayed or rejected pending completion by the Bank of product due diligence, know-your-customer and/or other review as the Bank determines to be necessary in its discretion. The Rules and these Service Terms shall apply to all Entries, whether or not transmitted through an ACH Operator.
It is Customer’s responsibility to provide Entries and instructions to Bank with all the necessary information to complete Customer’s requested transactions. Customer agrees to transmit Entries to Bank in the manner, at the times and in accordance with approved media, content and format as agreed by Bank and Customer. Bank may reject or delay processing transactions or information if instructions are not complete or are inaccurate, contain an inactive Company ID or otherwise do not meet the criteria Bank s pecifies for acceptance. All requests to Bank must be received by Bank before Bank’s established cut-off time in order for processing to commence on that ACH processing day. Any request that is incomplete or that Bank finishes receiving after the relevant cut -off time will be processed by Bank on the next day Bank processes ACH transactions. All transactions are subject to acceptance by Bank. Bank will notify Customer of any transactions or other transmissions that are rejected or returned.
If Customer wants Bank to re-process those transactions or transmissions, Customer must correct them and re-submit them. Customer agrees to furnish Bank with copies of any authorizations or notifications, if requested, as well as any other information reasonably requested by Bank relating to Entries originated by the Customer. Customer shall provide Bank’s auditors and other personnel with reasonable access at all reasonable times to the Customer’s facilities, data and records relating to the initiation of Entries for the purpose of auditing Customer’s compliance with these Service Terms and the Rules.
2. Security and Data Protection Procedures. All instructions received by Bank in Customer’s name are subject to verification pursuant to mutually agreed security procedures. If Bank follows those procedures, Bank may process and transmit transactions or information in Customer’s name. Unless Customer and Bank both otherwise agree, transmissions to Bank will be authenticated and/or encrypted using commerciall y reasonable security technologies meeting standards acceptable to Bank. If Customer uses a security procedure other than as described above, Customer acknowledges that Customer refused Bank’s security procedure and chose another and Customer agrees to be bound by any transaction, whether or not authorized, issued in Customer’s name and accepted by Bank in compliance with the security procedure Customer chose. If Customer elects not to utilize recommended message authentication and/or encryption technology, Customer assumes all responsibility for unauthorized disclosure or unauthorized access to Customer’ s data that occurs during transmission or while such data is in storage. Customer shall not disclose any Receiver’s account number or routing number to any third party for such third party’s use, directly or indirectly, in initiating a separate Debit.
3. Settlement and Exposure Limits. On the settlement date, Bank will credit Customer’s account with Bank that Customer specifies for the total of:
• Customer’s Debit Entries that Bank processed for settlement that day; • RCCs issued for deposit to Customer’s account on that day; and • any returned or reversed Credit Entries.
Bank may delay the availability of funds deposited into Customer’s account by Debit Entry or RCC until those transactions cannot be reversed in accordance with the Rules or applicable law.
Bank will debit Customer’s account with Bank that Customer specifies for the total of C redit Entries processed in Customer’s name and for any returned Debit Entries and RCCs. Bank may require Customer to pay Bank the amount of any Credit Entries on the date of transmission to Bank or otherwise prior to the settlement date. Bank also may require Customer to maintain collateral with Bank in an amount Bank specifies. 288
PN: 3177711 DOC ID: 3 Page 4 of 29
Bank may from time to time establish or revise maximum dollar limits for the total value of all outstanding files of Credit Entries and/or Debit Entries and RCCs that Bank will release on Customer’s behalf. Bank may change or cancel the limits at any time without prior notice to Customer; although Bank will try to notify Customer before Bank does that.
4. Warranties; Indemnity. Except as specified below, Customer will be deemed to make the same warranties to Bank as Bank makes pursuant to the Rules. In the case of an Entry to another account with Bank, warranties will be deemed to be given as of the time Bank first processes the Entry. Customer will not be deemed to warrant the power of the Bank under applicable law to comply with the requirements of the Rules or the conformity of Entries and other data Bank transmits to the file specifications contained in the Rules. The Customer further represents, warrants and covenants that (a) each Entry and RCC it originates will comply with all applicable U.S. laws and regulations and acknowl edges that Entries may not be initiated that violate the laws of the United States, (b) unless Customer has identified itself to Bank as a Third Party Sender (as defined in Section 7) and obtained Bank’s express consent to originate Entries as a Third Party Sender, Customer will not originate any Entries, or use any of its Company IDs to originate Entries, on behalf of third parties (including, without limitation, any affiliate of Customer), and (c) Customer will not permit a third party to originate Entries using a Customer account as the offset account unless Customer obtains Bank’s express consent to do so.
Customer agrees to indemnify Bank and Bank’s employees, officers, directors and agents, and hold all of them harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, liabilities or expenses (including attorneys' fees and costs) resulting directly or indirectly from (a) Customer’s breach of any warranty made under these Service Terms and (b) compliance by Bank and the RDFI with any request Customer makes for a cancellation, stop payment, reversal or recall of any Entry or any RCC created by Bank under Section 1 hereof.
Bank shall have no responsibility for any delay by any ACH Operator or RDFI in processing any Entry the Bank transmits to the ACH Operator or failure to process or credit or debit any such Entry.
5. Stop Payments; Reversals and Recalls; Rejections. Customer’s instruction to cancel, stop payment of, reverse or recall one or more Entries must be received by Bank in such time and manner as Bank specifies. Bank will process these transactions in acc ordance with Bank’s procedures advised to Customer. Any reversal or recall initiated by Bank is subject to acceptance by the RDFI. Instructions to reverse or recall an ACH Credit Entry that are not initiated by Customer in time to meet the prescribed NACHA deadline for reversals may be originated by Bank as a Debit Entry; Customer shall obtain authorization from the Receiver in accordance with the Rules for any such Debit Entry and all other terms of these Service Terms applicable to Debit Entries shall apply. Entries or other instructions may not be amended or modified.
If Customer originates Debit Entries to an account or accounts at a financial institution that is not a Participating Depository Financial Institution in the ACH system (such account hereafter called a “Non-ACH Eligible Account”), all such Debit Entries will be rejected unless Customer subscribes to a service, subject to Bank’s prior consent, pursuant to which Bank will process each such Debit Entry to a Non-ACH Eligible Account by preparing a remotely created check, as such term is defined in Federal Reser ve Regulation CC (an “RCC”), on the Customer’s behalf. The RCC will be drawn in the amount and on the Non- Eligible ACH Account of the individual or entity specified as the receiver in the Customer’s instructions and will be deposited to the Customer’s designated account with Bank, Such RCC will thereafter be processed through the check clearing system. If the Customer is using such service, the Customer hereby authorizes the Bank to create each RCC as described herein and the Customer warrants to the Bank, with respect to each RCC, that the person on whose account the RCC is drawn authorized the issuance of such RCC in the amount and to the payee stated in the RCC. The Customer authorizes the Bank to debit the Customer’s account for any claim or return bas ed upon an unauthorized RCC. All other terms herein related to Entries shall also apply to RCCs created under this Section. The Bank s hall not create or process RCCs or other paper drafts in lieu of ACH Debits under any circumstances other than for Non -ACH Eligible Accounts and only when the Bank has consented to provide such service, even if the Customer includes an instruction in its file for the Bank to otherwis e originate an RCC or paper draft.
6. Third Party Service Providers. Customer may choose to use a third party service provider or service bureau to issue Entries or other instructions, handle returned Entries or perform other functions for and on Customer’s behalf. If Bank accepts such Entries or other instructions, Customer will be bound by them. Customer is responsible for all actions taken or not taken by Customer’s provider and Customer is responsible for all costs and expenses of Customer’s provider.
7. Notification to Bank if Customer is or Becomes a Third Party Sender. Customer will not initiate Entries as a Third Party Sender or otherwise originate Debit Entries or Credit Entries on behalf or for the benefit of other persons or entities without prior notification to, and approval of, the Bank. Accordingly, Customer wil l notify Bank if Customer at any time intends to become a Third Party Sender and will not commence and will not commence such activity unless and until Bank approval is obtained.
8. IAT Entries. If Customer is originating Entries that are required to be formatted under the Rules as IAT Entries, Customer will comply wit h all applicable Rules relating thereto, and Customer will originate such Entries only through one of Bank’s ACH origination channels that support IAT origination. Some of Bank’s ACH origination channels do not accommodate IAT Entries; upon request, the Bank will advise Customer as to which of Bank’s ACH origination channels can be used for IAT origination.
If a foreign currency conversion is performed by Bank in connection with an IAT Entry, Customer acknowledges that the foreign currency exchange rates fluctuate, and accepts the risk of such fluctuation, including fluctuations in rate between the time Customer submits the Entry Data Instructions and the time the transaction is executed and/or reversed, returned or recalled. Any payment returns and/or reversals will be credited to Customer’s account in the currency in which Customer’s account is denominated, and Customer is responsible for any rate fluctuations.
In the event of an erroneous or duplicate IAT Entry originated for payment to a receiving bank outside the United States, the rights of Bank and Customer with respect to reversal or recall of such Entry are subject to the laws, regulations and payment system rules of the receiving bank’s jurisdiction.
Customer acknowledges and agrees that IAT Entries may be delayed in processing or posting due to the Bank’s or RDFI’s review of such Entries for OFAC compliance. Further, Customer understands and acknowledges that unlike PPD Credit Entries, there is no requirement under the Rules that IAT Credit Entries that are made available to an RDFI by its ACH operator by 5:00 pm on the banking day prior to the Settlement Date be made 289
PN: 3177711 DOC ID: 3 Page 5 of 29
available to the Receiver at the opening of business on the Settlement date; cleared IAT Credit Entries must be made availabl e no later than the Settlement Date of the Entry, but funds are not required to be available at opening of business on the Settlement Date.
9. Same Day Entries. The terms set forth in this Section 9 apply to any Same Day Entry, as such term is defined in the Rules, originated by the Customer. From and after the effective date specified under the Rules for Same Day Credit Entries and Same Day Debit Entries (or such other dates as may be communicated to the Customer by the Bank), subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 9, any Credit Entry or Debit Entry submitted to the Bank that meets the criteria set forth in the Rules for a Same Day Entry (“Same Day Criteria”) may be processed and released by the Bank in such time and manner as to enable same day processing and settlement by the applicable ACH Operator and RDFI.
The Bank may, in its sole discretion, provide the Same Day ACH Service to its customer segments on either an opt-out basis or an opt-in basis. If the Service is provided to the Customer on an opt-out basis, any Credit Entry or Debit Entry transmitted to the Bank in the name of the Customer that meets the Same Day Criteria may be processed as a Same Day Entry (from and after the Respective Implementation Date), and the Customer will be charged applicable fees for such processing. The Customer may elect to exclude transactions from Same Day ACH processing by notifying the Bank in writing (or by such other means as the Bank may specify) of specified Company IDs that the Customer wants to excl ude from Same Day ACH processing even if the Same Day Criteria ar e met. In such case, the Bank will exclude files/Entries with such Company IDs from the Service. If the Service is provided to the Customer on an opt-in basis, the Customer may request that its originated Entries meeting the Same Day Criteria be processed on a same day basis; otherwise, such Entries will not be processed on a same day basis. As a result of the implementation of the Same Day ACH processing, there may be changes to the posting times for Entries; Same Day ACH Entries as well as Entries originated to accounts of Receivers at the Bank may be posted to Receivers’ accounts earlier than posting was occurring prior to implementation of Same Day ACH processing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in these Service Terms, certain Bank transmission channels will not provide capability for origination of Same Day ACH Entries or will provide such capability at a later time than other channels
10. Incorporation of Account Documentation; Termination. The provisions of the account documentation, including terms and conditions governing the operation of business accounts and services, are incorporated into these Service Terms by reference. By acknowledging or signing the applicable account documentation or by using or continuing to use the ACH Origination Services, Customer agrees to these Service Terms. In addition to Bank’s termination rights under the aforementioned documentation, Bank shall have the right to terminate or suspend these Service Terms and the Services upon notice to Customer in the event of the Customer’s breach of the Rules.

Customer must supply the Bank, through the designated us er interface, with the applicable ACH Company ID of the Originator as it appears on the Company/Batch Header Record. The Company ID will be the sole criterion for blocking debit and credit entries (unless Customer has also set maximum dollar l imits) and Bank will have no obligation to take any other steps to determine the identity of the Originator
Customer understands that Company IDs are not unique and that a Company ID may identify more than one Originator, and one Originator may have multiple Company IDs. Customer understands that Company IDs are not a perfect filter and that transactions from O riginators may be blocked or allowed if the Originator uses a Company ID other than the one Customer identifies. Bank will not be responsible for transactions blocked or allowed in accordance with the instructions Customer provides for the Company ID.
2. ACH Transaction Blocking with Positive Pay
(a) Service. Bank also provides a service that allows Customers who are currently setup on ACH Transaction Blocking to elect an optional feature which provides notification to Customers prior to posting or return of any ACH debit entries and/or credit entries identified as unauthorized and/or authorized, regardless of established ACH Transaction blocking parameters set by Customer.
(b) Bank will provide such notification to Customer by a method prescribed by Bank, and Customer shall have an opportunity to provide instructions to Bank prior to a designated cut -off time (“Cut-Off Time”)s, and in a manner and form acceptable to the Bank, to either (a) allow the debit Entries and/or credit Entries to post rather than returning them (where the Customer’s Block Profile rule spe cifies return of such Entry), or (b) return the debit Entries and/or credit Entries instead of allowing them to be proc essed (where the Customer’s Block Profile rule specifies processing of such transactions). If the Customer does not provide such instructions prior to such designated cut-off time or if an Entry with a same day effective date is received after such designated cut -off time, Bank will disposition such Entries in accordance with the Customer’s established ACH Transaction Block Profile rules
(c) Additionally, Customer may provide instructions to Bank prior to a designated Entry cut -off time, and in a manner and form acceptable to the Bank to add allowable or non-allowable IDs to their ACH Transaction Blocking profile rule directly from transactions details presented for decisioning.
(d) Settlement and availability of funds may be delayed as a result of an ACH transaction held until the Cut-Off Time.
3. ACH Transaction Review
(a) Service. Bank provides a service that allows Customer to review ACH debit and credit entries originated and posted to Customer’s account with Bank and to instruct Bank to return some or all of these transactions. Customer shall use filter criteria available through the service to select the types or categories of incoming ACH debit and/or credit transactions it wishes to review or Customer may elect to review all incoming ACH transactions subject to Section 3(d) below.
(b) Review and Return Process. Based upon the filter criteria selected by the Customer, ACH transactions meeting that criteria will be made available for Customer to review not later than a designated time on the banking day following the day on which the transactions are posted to the Customer’s account. The details provided by Bank for each entry will include account number, dollar amount, company ID, receiver’s name, standard entry class code and settlement date.
(c) Customer shall advise Bank by means of an agreed upon transmission method not later than Bank’s designated cut -off time on the same day as transaction information is made available for those transactions, if any, that are unauthorized and that Customer wis hes to return.
Bank is entitled to rely on any instructions which it receives and which it reasonably believes to be genuine. Bank shall re turn all such transactions and make corresponding adjustments to the Customer’s account to which the transactions had been posted. All transactions reported to Customer as to which Bank does not receive a timely return instruction from Customer will remain posted or be returned based on the Transaction Review profile default decision setting established by the Customer.
(d) Certain Reviewed Transactions Maybe Returned/Posted Despite Instructions. Certain transactions reviewed and approved by the Customer may nevertheless be returned by the Bank. This will happen if (i) there are insufficient funds in the Customer’s account to cover the amount of an ACH debit or other charge, (ii) a stop payment was previously placed on the transaction, or (iii) the Bank determines the transaction must be returned for legal or regulatory reasons. Certain transactions that the Customer advises should be returned may nevertheless be posted by the Bank; these include ACH debits or credits to the Customer’s account that the Bank posts pursuant to its internal procedures in order to comply with applicable law, regulations or payment system rules or guidance.

The Items below the Threshold Amount will be handled according to the standard Account Documentation governing the Customer’s Account; however, Customer will not be liable for such Items if the discrepancy would have otherwise been detected under this Service. With regard to Payee Verification, the Bank will compare the payee name provided in the Issuance Information to the payee lines contained in the name/address block identified on the Item (presented as provided for in the Bank’s set-up requirements) and will otherwise be limited to those parameters specifically agreed to by the Customer and Bank. Customer understands that Bank will not be liable to Customer (i) for any discrepancy in the payee name if the discrepancy was not detected due to the check stock or the print format of the Item not passing the Bank’s testing (including, without limitation, with respect to the payee name placement) or (ii) for any discrepancy in the payee name if the payee name was handwritten on the Item.
5. Voided Items and Stop Payments.
For any Item listed on Customer’s Issuance Information which Customer decides it no longer wishes to pay: (a) if the Item is physically in the Customer’s possession, Customer may place a void notice in the Issuance Information for such Item, or (b) if the Item is no longer physically in its possession, the Customer must place a stop payment request with the Bank in accordance with the Bank’s requirements and the A ccount Documentation. If the Customer does not place a stop payment request for an Item not phy sically in Customer’s possession as set forth in (b) 298
PN: 3177711 DOC ID: 3 Page 14 of 29
above and instead places a void notice, Customer agrees (i) that Bank may debit the Customer’s account for the payment of such Item and (ii) that Customer will be liable to Bank for any damages Bank may suffer as a result of the Customer’s failure to place a stop payment on such Item.
6. Item Payment.
The Bank is not obligated to maintain signature cards for the Account and whether or not the Bank does maintain such signature cards, in no event shall the Bank be obligated to inspect any Item for the presence or authenticity of any signature or to determine whether any signature is authorized.
The Customer acknowledges that the Bank’s adherence to these procedures in these terms, in lieu of signature examination, wil l constitute the exercise of good faith and ordinary care by the Bank in handling Items presented for payment against the Account.
7. Over the Counter Presentment and Encashment.
The Bank may, without liability to the Customer, refuse to pay any Item presented for encashment at any of the Bank’s branch locations. If an Item is presented for encashment or deposit at one of the Bank’s branch locations at the teller line and the account is under the Positive Pay or Payee Verification Service, the Customer authorizes the Bank to pay such Item at the teller line based upon the Issuance Information. If an Item is presented for encashment at one of the Bank’s branch locations at the teller line and the account is under the Reverse Positive Pay Service, (i) the Customer authorizes the Bank to pay such Item pursuant to the Bank’s policies and procedures for encashment, (ii) Customer assumes the risk of any loss that would have been prevented through the use of Positive Pay or Payee Verification services; and (iii) Customer agrees to unconditionally release, indemnify and hold harmless the Bank against any and all liability loss or claim relating to an Item being cashed or returned over-the- counter. The Bank may charge a person who cashes an Item drawn on the Customer’s Account a fee at the time of encashment.
8. Non-Standard Items.
The Service(s) shall not apply to any Item that does not meet the Bank’s set -up requirements for Items to be eligible for the Services (including, without limitation, any Item printed without magnetic ink character recognition (MICR), any Item which has a MICR line in a location unacceptable to Bank, or any Item which may be printed on various printing devices that allow size or font to vary) (“Non- Standard Items”). Customer acknowledges that (i) the use of Non- Standard Items may increase the likelihood of fraud, such Non- Standard Items may not be accepted for deposit at financial institutions, and the use of Non- Standard Items may lead to processing delays in the failure of such Non- Standard Items to systemically be matched to the Issuance Information at the time they are presented to the Bank for payment, and (ii) the use of Non-Standard Items may result in the Bank’s fraud protection services not being able to operate as designed such that Non- Standard Items may not be able to be returned within the legal timeframe. Customer acknowledges that Non-Standard Items may be treated as non-cash items for purposes of Regulation CC.
Customer agrees that the Bank may, without liability to Customer, refuse to deposit any Non- Standard Item, including, without limitation, refusing to accept the deposit at any of the Bank’s branch locations. Customer agrees that Customer’s decision to use Non-Standard Items which result in the inability to meet the formatting standards required by the Bank’s Service(s) to operate as designed (systemic matching of the Issuance Information to the Item at the time it is presented for payment) constitutes negligence contributing to the making of an unauthorized signature and/or a material alteration of the Item (collectively “Unauthorized Item”) in situations where a Non-Standard Item is paid against the Customer’s account that the Customer claims is an Unauthorized Item, (a) Customer assumes the risk of loss to the extent that such Service(s) would have detected the Unauthorized Item if it had used check stock that met the Bank’s formatting requirements, (b) Customer shall not claim against the Bank, and the Bank shall have no obligation or liability to Customer to recredit any such account for any such loss, and (c) the Bank will hav e exercised ordinary care if it pays an Item drawn on any Customer account based upon industry standards without any further inspec tion of any such Item, even if it is an Unauthorized Item.
9. Incomplete Activations and Service Suspensions.
Customer agrees that the Bank shall have no obligation or liability to Customer in accordance with these Service Terms (i) in the event the Services are suspended by Bank in accordance with the Account Documentation; or (ii) prior to Customer taking all required steps to fully implement the Services (including, without limitation, Customer’s final activation of the Service [i.e., actioning “pending positive pay”] on the applicable Bank electronic channel). Customer also understands that it may be billed for the Services notwithstanding that it has not taken all required steps to fully implement the Services.

REMOTE CAPTURE SERVICE TERMS V1.4_07_21_23
Remote Capture is a remote scanning service that processes remittances and promotes Customers’ efficiency in their businesses. Through this service, the Customer’s remittance deposits can be imaged and transferred to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Bank”) via a Bank supplied data platform for further processing and posting to the Customer’s deposit account.
1. Service
The Bank, which may include designated agents of the Bank, will provide Customer with Remote Capture services solely for domestic transactions (the “Service”) in accordance with the provisions set forth in this document (the “Service Terms”). The Service allows Customer to electronically transmit deposits of eligible checks and items (eligible checks and items are limited to personal checks, money orders, business checks, cashier’s checks, traveler’s checks, if the scan of the check or item (i) originated within U.S. borders, (ii) is payable in U.S. Dollars, and (iii) is drawn on U.S. banks or U.S. Postal Service Money Orders, payabl e to the Customer) by using a capture device, including a desktop scanner or mobile device (hereinafter referred to as a “Scanner”), to create an electronic image of an original paper check or item and other paper source documents (collectively, “Item”) and transmitting the image of the Item (“Item Image”) and related data within the U.S. to Bank. The provisions of the Lockbox Service Terms, Account Terms, J.P. Morgan Treasury Services Electronic Channels Service Terms (“the “Channels Terms”) , and any other applicable Service Terms as may be amended from time to time (collectively, the "Account Documentation") are incorporated int o these Service Terms by reference. By signing the applicable Account Documentation or by using or continuing to use the Ser vice, Customer agrees to these Service Terms. If and to the extent there is a conflict between the Account Documentation and these Service Terms, the provisions of these Service Terms will prevail.
a. Customer agrees that after the Item Image has been created and transmitted to the Bank for deposit, Customer shall not otherw ise transfer or negotiate the original Item, substitute check or any other image of the Item. Customer further agrees that Customer shall be solely responsible for the original Items, including storage, retrieval and destruction. Customer must have in place policies and procedures for the secure storage and destruction of the original Items.
b. Customer agrees that a copy made from the Item Image or substitute check of the Item, as defined by federal law, will become the legal representation of the Item for all purposes, including return item processing.
c. Subpart B of Federal Regulation CC (availability of funds) does not apply when electronic images of Items are transmitted to Bank. Funds from deposits made via this Service will be available in accordance with the availability schedule for the Service. H owever, Bank may apply additional delays on the availability of funds based on any other factors as determined in the Bank’s sole discretion.
2. Processing
Customer shall provide through Bank approved devices, including a desktop scanner or mobile device, the Item Images in the format and specifications and in accordance with the procedures required by the Bank. The Bank may process the Items as substitute checks, electronic images or photos-in-lieu, as may be applicable for further clearing through another financial institution, clearinghouse or the Federal Reserve Bank.
Customer assumes sole responsibility for the creation of these images and their subsequent provision to the Bank. If any Item Image does not meet the Bank’s or any transferee’s standard processing requirements, in processing such Items, Customer assumes all risk of loss or delay and authorizes the Bank to either (a) return the Item to the Cust omer without further processing, (b) process the Item as sent from the Customer, (c) process the Items as photos--in-lieu of the originals, or (d) repair or attempt to repair the items for further processing. Access to the Item Images and the use of a mobile device in conjunction with the Service are governed by the Channels Terms , as may be amended from time to time.
3. Deposit Time
Item Images are deemed received by the Bank when the Item Images have been transferred onto the Bank’s system and validated b y the Bank.
Based upon the size of the batch of items, there may be a significant delay between the time Customer begins to send the items and the completion of the transfer as stated above. If Bank receives and validates the submitted deposit transmission no later than the Bank’s designated cut off time (the “Cutoff Time”) on a day that the Bank is generally open for business, i.e. , Monday through Friday excluding weekends and state or federal holidays (“Business Day”), Bank will consider that Business Day to be the day of deposit ( i.e., the date deposit is credited). If Bank receives and validates the submitted deposit transmission after the Cutoff Time or on a non-Business Day, the deposit will be considered to be made on the next Business Day. Whether the Cutoff Time has been met wil l be determined by the time displayed on the Bank’s internal system clocks which may not necessarily be synchronized with the internal clock displayed on Customer’s computer or device. For this reason, Bank suggests that Customer submit its deposit transmissions to Bank sufficiently in advance of the Cutoff Time to avoid the possibility of missing the Cutoff Time.
4. Foreign Items
The Service only accepts and processes Items drawn on U.S. chartered banks, whose image originates within U.S. borders.
5. Warranties.
5.1 Customer represents and warrants to Bank that:
• Customer will capture and transmit all Item Images using Bank approved hardware and software applicable to the Service’s function; • Any image Bank receives accurately and legibly represents all of the information on the front and back of the Item as of the time the Item was truncated;
• The information Customer transmits to Bank corresponding to an Item contains a record of all applicable MICR-line information required for a substitute check and the accurate amount of the Item; • The Item Image conforms to the technical standards for an electronic Item set forth in Regulation J or Federal Reserve Bank Operating Circular 3, and for a substitute check set forth in Regulation CC; 307
PN: 3177711 DOC ID: 3 Page 23 of 29
• No person will receive a transfer, presentment, or return of, or otherwise be charged for, the Item (either the original Item, or a paper or electronic representation of the original Item) such that the person will be asked to make payment based on an Item it has already paid; • Customer will not redeposit through this Service any Item previously deposited and returned to Customer; • Customer will employ commercially reasonable security measures, including firewalls, sufficient to protect against unauthorized access or duplicate presentment;
• Customer will only transmit Items that originated as paper checks; • Customer will comply with all applicable laws and regulations; • Customer will not originate any use of the Service for any purpose outside the U.S. borders. Such origination includes, but is not limited to, the capture and transmission of check images from outside of the U.S. • Customer will not use the Service for any purpose prohibited by foreign exchange regulations, postal regulations or any other treaty, statute, regulation or authority; and
• If the Customer is depositing Items on behalf of third parties, the Customer also represents and warrants to the Bank that with respect to each Item deposited through the Service, the owner of the Item has authorized the electronic transmittal of the Item and guarantees all prior endorsements; Customer has established an anti -money laundering program in compliance with anti -money laundering laws and regulations applicable to it and such anti-money laundering program includes policies, procedures and controls designed to detect and prevent money laundering, including “know -your-customer” policies and procedures, monitoring of transactions for suspicious activities and reporting of suspicious activities, which Customer believes effectively prevents the use of Customer’s operations, personnel or facilities for money laundering purposes.
6. New Features. Bank may, from time to time, introduce new features to the Service or modify or delete existing features in its sole discretion.
Bank shall notify Customer of any of these changes to features if Bank is legally required to do so. By using any new or modi fied features when they become available, Customer agrees to be bound by the rules concerning these features.

Customer agrees to indemnify and hold the Bank harmless for any loss or expense (including attorney’s fees and expenses of litigation) resulting from: breach of any of the warranties made by Customer pursuant to these Service Terms or the Lockbox Service T erms; any claim pertaining to any warranty or indemnity that Bank makes with respect to an Item under the Check Clearing for the 21st Century Act, Federal Reserve Board Regulations CC and J and all other laws, regulations and industry and clearing house rules applicable to Items as either the bank of first deposit, truncating or reconverting bank.
9. Customer Liability.
Customer shall be solely responsible if any item for which Customer has been given provisional credit is returned or reversed , and neither Bank nor its subcontractors shall be liable or responsible for same. Customer acknowledges that all credits received for deposit are provisional, subject to verification, final settlement, warranty claims or return.

Customer agrees that Bank shall have no liability for the content of payment -related information as received from the Customer. Customer shall be solely responsible for the original Items, including storage, retrieval and destruction.

If Customer is unable to provide the original or legible copy, Customer shall be liable for any associated loss or claim involving the Item.
10. Suspension/Cancellation of Service.
Bank reserves the right to suspend or terminate the Service, in whole or in part if Bank believes Customer is in breach of these Service Terms or is otherwise using or accessing the Service in a manner inconsistent with the rules and regulations relating to the Service being provided and such breach, use or access is not cured within three business days after notice to Customer. Further, this Service will automatically terminate if the Customer’s account with the Bank is closed for any reason.

Audits. Customer agrees that the Bank shall have the right to audit Customer’s books, records, processes and procedures for managing and maintaining the security and safety of the scanners, transmissions and original Items, including the right to audit Customer’s and Customer’s agents, if any, physical locations where Customer scans original Items and processes electronic check images and data related to the Service.

Security features (including, without limitation, encrypted messages, additional authentication requirements or features designed to prevent a document fro m being reassigned to another individual for signature) are included on the Platform for the benefit of the Customer (including, without limitation, to mitigate against fraud). By choosing not to use (or, in the case of encryption, not having the capability to use) any one or more security features, the Customer accepts the risks associated with not using such security measures.

The Customer has separately provided the Bank with documentation (i) showing or certifying the authority of its Authorized Signers to sign documents on behalf of the Customer and (ii) containing the correct name, business email address, and telephone numbers (“Personal Data”) for each Authorized Signer (“Authority Documents”).

The Bank is authorized to rely on the information set forth in the Authority Documents until it receives and has had a reasonable time to act on such notice. In instances where the Bank initiates the signing event, the Bank will share Personal Data with the Platform for the sole purpose of facilitating the e-Signing process, and the Customer and Authorized Signer hereby, and by executing an E -Signed Document, consent to the sharing of such information and waives (to the extent permissible) any restrictions on sharing such information under applicable law , including banking secrecy, if applicable .
Personal Data will be kept by the Platform for the duration of the e-Signing process and will be deleted after a period of two years.

The Customer acknowledges that the Bank has relied on the foregoing representations and warranties when accepting E-Signed Documents.

Receivables solutions
Remote Deposit Capture
A check deposit solution powered by Receivables Online via J.P. Morgan Access, allows the City to scan checks and full-page documents from their desktop or mobile device and electronically send the images to the bank for deposit.
Desktop: San checks and remittance documents using an approved high-speed check or check + document scanner.
Mobile (U.S. Only): Take pictures of checks and remittance documents with a supported iOS or Android smartphone device.
Lockbox
Scannable lockbox allows the City to direct consumer payments to one of our local processing centers where coupon based payments are automatically collected, processed and deposited into your J.P. Morgan bank account. You can report, enrich and reconcile your lockbox payments alongside other payment channels with Receivables Online.
Image Cash Letter
We have invested well over $100 million to enhance our image infrastructure and capabilities in depository services to make certain we are an industry leader in depository services. Therefore, we would encourage the City to take advantage of our Image Cash Letter (ICL) or Remote Deposit Capture (RDC) product offerings.
If you process your own checks, rely on a third-party or electronically consolidate deposits from multiple locations, you face growing costs, risks and inefficiency. Our Image Cash Letter solution allows you to image your paper items and transmit them to us electronically for clearing. As part of this process, our solution reviews your check images and accompanying data to determine the optimum clearing method:
• Automated Clearing House (ACH)
• Check Image Clearing
In addition, because we process a significant number of transactions as on-us items, we are able to process yours the same way, helping you keep clearing costs down.
ACH debit origination
Use our banking portal or secure file transfer protocol (SFTP) transmission to originate ACH debits from your constituents.
The banking portal provides a fully integrated, browser-based service with easy-to-use applications for all your information, compliance and portfolio management needs.
Many large originators find it convenient to originate large volume via batch and create occasional manual entries online when necessary.

Customers benefit from modern payment methods that allow them to view and pay their bills easily and efficiently. With the Digital Bill Payment solution, the City is poised to deliver innovative solutions to your customers by providing them with the ability to pay obligations owed to you in person or online, in many convenient ways.

Account structure
The Hybrid DDA allows you to earn interest on excess funds without moving them to an investment account.
Optimize your cash management in comparison to managing a sweep option or direct investment because the funds remain in one cash account and are available for use as needed. Moreover, 100% of the funds in this account are collateralized per California State requirements with Treasuries, enabling the City to feel secure entrusting J.P. Morgan with its public funds.
The power of DDA with earnings credit and interest-bearing DDA together:
● Increase operational efficiency and flexibility in your cash management. ● Hybrid DDA account earns an earnings credit rate (ECR) up to your controlled peg balance. ● Funds in excess of the peg balance earn hard dollar interest. ● Benefit of full liquidity throughout the business day with no restrictions on withdrawals.
The Result: Funds are housed in a single account earning both a competitive ECR and interest rate.
Conclusion
We offer industry-leading financial solutions and thought leadership that foster greater financial and operational outcomes. Based on the objectives stated in the RFP and our understanding of your goals, we are confident that we are specifically qualified to meet the City’s objectives. Our team will work with you to further identify opportunities for improvement and collaborate with leadership to deploy a cohesive strategy. We hope you will allow us to demonstrate our attention to detail, service, project management, organization and overall platform by choosing us to be your go-forward banking provider.

Experience
Describe the bank's direct experience in servicing public sector clients, primarily mid-size cities such as the City of Murrieta. Please include the following: the number of public agency clients, the dollar amount of public funds on deposit, and the bank's knowledge of and adherence to the California Government Code, including collateralization requirements, and other applicable federal and state laws.
Will the bank be able to comply with transaction or account balance confirmations and respond to other requests for data as needed from the City's auditors? What role does technology play in the delivery of service?
We currently hold several billion dollars in public deposits and we pledge collateral to secure such public deposits through our National Collateral Management Group (NCMG) to numerous government clients in the State of California (including several cities in California) and throughout the country. The Bank has been designated a depository for funds of Customer in the manner required by applicable law. See ‘California General Collateral Information (Mandatory Local Agency Pool)’ herein.
California General Collateral Information (Mandatory Local Agency Pool) JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the Bank), through its National Collateral Management Group (NCMG), employs a Bank developed Corporate Collateral Management System (CCM), which provides daily monitoring of deposit balances and security value for collateralization purposes.
CCM is reviewed each Federal Reserve banking day by dedicated Collateral Managers for compliance with collateral requirements. Collateral requirements are based upon the end-of-day ledger balances in deposit accounts (demand and time deposits) (plus accrued interest if any), less applicable FDIC coverage if coverage for insured balances is appropriately waived, plus applicable margin (10%). The end-of-day deposit balances are uploaded into CCM the following Federal Reserve banking day morning from the Bank's deposit system. NCMG monitors the market value of collateral pledged to our customers and compares the market value to the collateral requirements. In the event a market value reduction or increase in deposit level creates an under-collateralized position, additional collateral will be pledged promptly.
Collateral is pooled for all Local Agency Government Customers and State Agency Customers The Bank follows the collateralization process (California Pool) established by California law and procedures of the Local Agency Security Program (LASP) Administrator. In addition, the Bank follows the collateralization process established by California law for State Agency customers. The State’s own deposits are directly collateralized.
Types of Collateral Pledged
The Bank is currently pledging U.S. Treasury securities to secure Local Agency deposits and State Agency deposits. The amount and types of collateral pledged are subject to change but will be in accordance with the California Government Code (for Local Agency deposits, Government Code §§ 53651, 53651.2, 53651.6 and rules established by the LASP Administrator; and for State Agency Deposits, Government Code § 16522). 341
Section B - Bank Services to Public Sector | 24 |
Custodian for the Collateral Securities
The Bank currently employs The Bank of New York Mellon as third-party custodian to hold collateral for the LASP; and the Federal Reserve Bank, which account is controlled by the State Treasurer for the State Agency accounts.
Collateral Priced/Marked to Market
The Bank uses an independent, third-party pricing agent for collateral valuation. Dependent upon the types of securities pledged, the Bank will update security prices (marked to market) daily, weekly and monthly, as provided by the pricing agent. The Bank of New York Mellon also prices pledged securities daily, weekly and monthly, dependent upon the types of securities pledged as collateral.
Departments Responsible for Tracking Collateral and Reporting to the State The Bank has two groups for tracking collateral and reporting: Firmwide Regulatory Reporting and Analysis (FRRA), which conducts all reporting to the LASP Administrator, and NCMG, which conducts security pledging (and other collateral transactions) with the LASP Administrator.
Collateral Reporting
The Bank is required to provide reporting to the LASP Administrator in such frequency and in such format as described in California law and LASP rules. The Bank is unable to provide collateral reporting for LASP pool program customers because the collateral pledged covers all California Pool participants and is not segregated to a specific customer. Request of proof of collateralization for LASP pool program customers can be submitted to:

Customer Service
Describe how the bank handles issue resolution, customer service, day-to-day contact, and ongoing maintenance for governmental agencies. Identify metrics for how the bank measures quality and customer service, and how often the City will be provided with the results of these evaluations.
Does the bank provide a toll-free number for Customer Service? Please identify the hours of operations for the customer service unit.
The City benefits from our coordinated approach to distinctive, industry-leading client support. CSAs answer your day-to-day questions about our banking services and interact with our operations areas on your behalf to solve your inquiries or requests. When your primary CSA is not available, your designated back up CSA assists you.
Additionally, our Commercial Banking Service Center is staffed with CSAs who help with routine requests from 5:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. PT, Monday through Friday.
Ongoing support
In addition to your CSA, our Payments Solution Center Access Support team supports routine transactional and technical issues and provides you with consistent, reliable access to service consultants who understand your business. Our service centers are open to support your business requirements during and after normal business hours, and they are staffed with bilingual product experts. ● The Access Support team provides a general help desk as the first level of support, accessed via toll-free client support line. If your call needs to be escalated, senior specialists provide the second level of support, and the manager provides the third level.
● In addition, Access Support specialists have the authority to escalate, as appropriate, any client issue to provide timely and accurate resolution.
● The Access Support team hours of operation are 5:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. PT, Monday through Friday.
Access Transaction Services is our Internet-based self-service tool, to search for payments, inquiries and ACH requests and create inquiries for wire and ACH payments in accounts to which you are entitled. You may also initiate requests for deletions, reversals, reclaiming funds, returns and notifications of change (NOC) for ACH payments in accounts to which you are entitled.
Additionally, we provide merchant-specific support through Merchant Services senior-level consultants and specialists, Account and Support teams. Merchant Services Technical, Operations and point-of-sale Help Desks are staffed 24/7/365.
Measuring quality and customer service
Client Service and Implementations use web-based surveys, IVR options and in-depth and in-person interviews to measure satisfaction with clients. We understand that metrics for how the bank measures quality 348
Section B - Bank Services to Public Sector | 31 |
and customer service are of utmost importance to the City. We are dedicated to delivering these metrics to you as often as preferred, whether that be after each interaction or as incorporated into a regular schedule of relationship reviews which can be provided on a quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis.
Surveys are delivered via email to a sampling of clients who have recently implemented new Treasury Service products and/or had servicing interaction with their CSA. ● New Business Set-Up satisfaction is measured by the client’s satisfaction with the overall implementation experience and their likelihood to recommend the bank to others. We always ask for open-ended feedback.
Clients may also receive a call by a manager during an implementation to check on their satisfaction in process. Issues identified during or after an implementation are reviewed internally during daily calls and in post-implementation internal reviews to identify best practices and future changes that may improve client's overall satisfaction.
● Client Service satisfaction is based on overall satisfaction ratings with Commercial Banking Client Service and any open-ended feedback provided.
● Survey results are reviewed daily, and outbound calls are made by a manager to any survey participant who submitted a low score rating to resolve outstanding issues and understand all feedback in real-time. ● The Payments Solution Center Access Support team is also evaluated for customer satisfaction. For the Access Support team, a survey is sent via an email to clients for a random sample of cases created from inbound client calls.
The survey evaluates overall satisfaction with the interaction and provides an opportunity to include free form feedback.
Survey results are published daily and used to track both departmental and individual agent performance. Outbound client calls are made by a manager to any survey participants who rated the overall service less than excellent of very good, or provided negative feedback.
These factors help us better identify the strengths and opportunities that drive the client’s overall satisfaction of the service we provide.
We would be happy to work with you to develop these metrics and collaborate to provide these evaluations based on your needs.

Section C – Demand Deposit Accounts | 34 |
Section C – Demand Deposit Accounts
The City currently uses one (1) general demand deposit account (DDA). One (1) account (Payroll) is a Zero Balance Account (ZBA), with the general deposit account serving as the Parent ZBA. Checks are issued using the General Checking Account and Payroll Accounts.
1. What types of demand deposit accounts (DDAs) do you offer, and how do they differ in terms of fees, services, and features?
We offer both Commercial Checking and Commercial Checking with Interest accounts, also known as a demand deposit account (DDA). The Commercial Checking DDA provides the option of paying an earnings credit rate (ECR), a “soft dollar” interest on balances which are applied against bank fees. The Commercial Checking with Interest DDA pays a “hard dollar” interest. Both accounts are fully liquid with no restrictions on withdrawals.
We also offer a Hybrid DDA which offers both soft and hard dollar interest. Soft dollar interest is applied against bank fees up to a pre-determined level of balances and hard dollar interest is applied to the balance over that predetermined level. Please refer to the Hybrid DDA section for more information.
The offered rates—on the standalone interest-bearing DDA and Hybrid DDA—are bank managed rates which are reviewed and updated periodically by us after considering a range of factors, including the market rate environment. Using a managed rate helps to maintain pricing flexibility while helping to protect you from the short-term rate volatility that could result from using an indexed rate.
The earnings credit rate is a bank managed rate which is reviewed and updated periodically by us after considering a range of factors, including the market rate environment. Using a managed rate helps to maintain pricing flexibility while helping to protect you from the short-term rate volatility that could result from using an indexed rate.
Hybrid DDA
Recent central bank actions have resulted in an evolving rate environment, making an optimized, flexible account structure a key component of a successful business strategy.
Our Hybrid DDA combines the power of a DDA with earnings credit and an interest-bearing DDA, allowing you to earn both a competitive earnings credit rate (ECR) and interest from a single account.
This innovative solution opens the door to a simplified account structure, allows for balances to offset service fees and minimizes time spent managing investments. 352
Section C – Demand Deposit Accounts | 35 |
How it works
The Hybrid DDA offers a solution similar to the functionality of an overnight sweep service. In the Hybrid DDA solution, balances earn an earnings credit allowance up to a predetermined threshold to offset bank service fees with balances above the threshold earning hard dollar interest. Thus, instead of sweeping to a separate account each night, your excess balance remains in the DDA and earns interest. Additionally, the Hybrid DDA does not have an investment cap like an end-of-day money market fund (MMF) sweep solution. And, unlike an overnight sweep, 100% of the funds in this account are collateralized per California State requirements with Treasuries, enabling the City to feel secure entrusting J.P. Morgan with its public funds.
Balances up to a predetermined threshold (“the peg balance”) earn an earnings credit allowance at the proposed earnings credit rate of 2.92%. Funds up to the peg balance are used to offset bank service fees.
Balances above the peg balance threshold earn hard dollar interest at a proposed rate of 3.75%. Interest accrues daily and is paid monthly. The below illustrates how the Hybrid DDA works.
Hybrid DDA structure
Figure 2
353
Section C – Demand Deposit Accounts | 36 |
The peg balance can be changed at any time prior to the next billing cycle (and applied on a go forward basis) to adjust for unplanned changes in service fees (e.g., significant volume changes, service additions/deletions, to compensate for periods in which minimum balance levels fall below the peg balance amount).
Calculation of ECR and interest
The earnings credit rate and interest rate are bank managed rates that are reviewed and updated periodically by us after considering a range of factors, including the market rate environment. Using a managed rate helps maintain pricing flexibility while also helping protect you from the short-term rate volatility that could result from using an indexed rate.
The earnings credit allowance is calculated and applied on a monthly basis on the balances up to the peg balance threshold.
Monthly earnings credit allowance calculation
(Average monthly investable balance x ECR x actual number of days in month) Actual number of days in year
Hard dollar interest accrues on a daily basis on the closing daily balance above the ECR peg and is paid on a monthly basis.
Daily interest accrual calculation
(Daily positive collected balance above the peg x account interest rate) Actual number of days in year

Section C – Demand Deposit Accounts | 37 |
Money Market Deposit Accounts
For balances that are not immediately needed to cover operating cash needs and/or are of a reserve nature, we offer a Money Market Deposit Account (MMDA) that earns a premium rate above other overnight deposit alternatives.
Use this product when you have reserve cash with long-term characteristics that must be invested in an overnight instrument either due to investment policy guidelines or to effectively manage maximum weighted average maturity (WAM) requirements of your overall cash portfolio.
You can monitor account activity and view reports on an MMDA using our banking portal.
MMDA balances earn a competitive rate of interest, which accrues daily and is posted to the account on the last business day of each month. MMDAs provide greater flexibility than fixed term products as they are not subject to breakage costs. In addition, monthly maintenance or service fees are waived if certain minimum required balances are maintained. There are no fees to open an MMDA.
MMDAs allow up to six electronic withdrawals per calendar month, in accordance with Federal Reserve Regulation D. There are no limits to the number of deposits that can be made into the account.
MMDAs are backed by the full faith and credit of J.P. Morgan. As interest-bearing bank obligations, they are FDIC-insured up to $250,000 per depositor.
Certificates of deposit
A certificate of deposit (CD) is an interest-bearing bank deposit offering a fixed-term and a fixed rate of interest. Funds can be invested in CDs with a variety of maturity options typically greater than 90 days. CDs are backed by the full faith and credit of J.P. Morgan. As U.S. bank deposits; they have no foreign country risk and are FDIC insured up to $250,000 per depositor. Rates are based on market conditions at the time of investment.
Liquidity Management Account
The Liquidity Management Account (LMA) is an interest-bearing account that pays interest based on the stability of the account balance over time. You can potentially earn an enhanced yield on operating cash balances, depending on the duration that balances remain in the account. The longer stable operating balances remain here, the higher the payout tier the balances can achieve.
Balances are categorized into overnight, one-month, three-month and six-month tranches. Each progressive tranche automatically earns incremental value without locking balances to term or actively investing. Interest accrues daily and posts monthly to the LMA.

LMA offers daily liquidity where the City has unrestricted access to deposit balances throughout the business day. Accounts can be more operationally efficient for optimizing cash than managing a sweep or direct investment.
The standard FDIC deposit insurance coverage applies, up to applicable regulatory limits.

Section D – Collateralization of Deposits | 45 |
Section D – Collateralization of Deposits
The bank is required to collateralize public funds deposits under the California Government Code, Sections 53651 and 53652. Copies of the reports filed with the State of California shall be made available to the City upon request. Please detail the bank’s procedures for collateralizing public funds deposits.
1. What types of securities are used as collateral? Can the City select the type of collateral used? The Bank is currently pledging U.S. Treasury securities to secure Local Agency deposits and State Agency deposits. The amount and types of collateral pledged are subject to change, but will be in accordance with the California Government Code (for Local Agency deposits, Government Code §§ 53651, 53651.2, 53651.6 and rules established by the LASP Administrator; and for State Agency Deposits, Government Code § 16522).
2. Which bank department is responsible for tracking deposits and monitoring collateral? The Bank has two groups for tracking collateral and reporting: Firmwide Regulatory Reporting and Analysis (FRRA), which conducts all reporting to the LASP Administrator, and NCMG, which conducts security pledging (and other collateral transactions) with the LASP Administrator.
3. Will the City receive regular updates or notifications regarding the status of the collateral? The Bank is required to provide reporting to the LASP Administrator in such frequency and in such format as described in California law and LASP rules. The Bank is unable to provide collateral reporting for LASP pool program customers because the collateral pledged covers all California Pool participants and is not segregated to a specific customer. Request of proof of collateralization for LASP pool program customers can be submitted to:

Types of Collateral Pledged
The Bank is currently pledging U.S. Treasury securities to secure Local Agency deposits and State Agency deposits. The amount and types of collateral pledged are subject to change, but will be in accordance with the California Government Code (for Local Agency deposits, Government Code §§ 53651, 53651.2, 53651.6 and rules established by the LASP Administrator; and for State Agency Deposits, Government Code § 16522).
5. What is the frequency of reporting to the State Treasurer’s Office? Please see our response to question 3 above.
6. How does your bank ensure compliance with the state and federal regulations regarding the collateralization of government deposits?
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the Bank), through its National Collateral Management Group (NCMG), employs a Bank developed Corporate Collateral Management System (CCM), which provides daily monitoring of deposit balances and security value for collateralization purposes.
CCM is reviewed each Federal Reserve banking day by dedicated Collateral Managers for compliance with collateral requirements. The Bank provides required reporting to the State of California Local Agency Security Pool (LASP) administrator. The Entity may contact the LASP administrator directly with questions regarding the Bank’s compliance with the LASP program.

Section E – Bank Compensation | 47 |
Section E – Bank Compensation
The City has historically paid for bank services with a combination of hard-dollar fees and compensating balances. Please indicate the following in this section:
1. Can the City compensate the bank for services with fees, balances, or a combination of the two at its own election? Please describe any differences in related costs to the City with either option.
Yes. We accept compensation based on fees and/or balances, with no difference in unit prices. ● Fee Compensation: If you choose a fee compensation plan, balances are not used to offset any service charges. Total service charges are debited from a designated account, generally monthly. ● Balance Compensation: If you choose a balance compensation plan, eligible balances are used to calculate an earnings credit allowance to offset service charges. If eligible balances are sufficient, the earnings credit allowance offsets the service charge. If the level of eligible balances does not fully cover the fees, remaining service charges are debited from a designated account, usually monthly.
2. Can the City choose between paying for analysis deficiencies by check, auto debit, or ACH? Yes. Our standard method of payment is direct debit. We also accept ACH, wire or check for payment of fees as an exception. Payment is due within 30 days of the invoice date. As part of the exception agreement to process payments outside of direct debit, we reserve the right to direct debit for past due fees beyond 60 days.
3. What is the bank’s Earning Credit Rate (ECR) based on, and how is the credit calculated, and how is it applied to offset fees?
The earnings credit rate is a bank managed rate that we review and update periodically after considering a range of factors, including the market rate environment. Using a managed rate helps to maintain pricing flexibility while helping to protect you from the short-term rate volatility that could result from using an indexed rate.
The earnings credit allowance is calculated based on the average daily positive collected balances in the non-interest-bearing accounts less the reserve requirement (currently 0%) using the following calculation:
Monthly earnings credit allowance calculation
(Average monthly investable balance x ECR x actual number of days in month) Actual number of days in year
Offset certain banking service fees with an earnings credit and realize greater value for your cash compared to other short-term investment alternatives.

JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., has the financial strength organizations look for in a global operating services provider with a fortress balance sheet and short-term rating* of A-1+/P-1 by Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s, respectively.
* Credit ratings are provided for information purposes only. Credit ratings are solely the opinions of the rating agencies. We do not endorse, and accept no responsibility for, the credit ratings issued by the rating agencies. Credit ratings may be changed, superseded or withdrawn by the rating agencies at any time.
Earnings credit—How it works
Using earnings credit to reduce bank fees for services is a practice widely used by companies and financial institutions in the U.S.
Operating balances held overnight in non-interest-bearing DDAs receive earnings credit. End-of-day account balances are averaged for the billing month, and an earning credit rate is applied to calculate the earnings credit allowance (ECA).
At month end, the ECA is automatically applied as an offsetting credit to eligible banking service fees. The earnings credit rate can be applied either on standalone accounts or across a billing group.
Monthly service fees are reduced up to the amount of earnings credit gained on balances. If the ECA is equal to or greater than total banking service fees, offset all fees incurred that month. If the ECA is less than the total banking service fees, you pay the differential between the earnings credit offset and total banking service fees for the month.
4. List the bank’s actual ECR for each of the last six months (July – December, 2024).
Please see our ECR rates from July – December 2024 in the below table.
ECR rates
July 2024 3.72% October 2024 3.32%
August 2024 3.72% November 2024 3.12%
September 2024 3.72% December 2024 3.12%
366
Section E – Bank Compensation | 49 |
5. Using the ECR for the month of December 2024, please calculate the level of compensating balances (after float and reserves) needed to offset one dollar of the bank services. ($1 in services = $ in compensating balances.)
The City will need $389.96 in compensating balances to offset $1.00 of fees.
6. Please explain in detail, how and when the FDIC assessment is computed and charged.
We charge a balance-based charge (BBC), which is a monthly administrative fee assessed to address various regulatory and other charges affecting the bank. The rate is set by the bank and subject to periodic review and adjustment.
We use the following formula to calculate the BBC:
Balance-based charge calculation (monthly)
Average positive ledger balance x charge rate x number of calendar days in the month Actual number of days in the year
Since January 2, 2010, our BBC rate has been 0.13%.
As with other eligible fees, the monthly BBC may be offset by earnings credit provided by us. This charge is included in monthly account analysis statements.
7. What is the bank’s settlement period for account analysis and billing purposes – monthly, quarterly, semiannually, or annually? How long can any excess balances be carried forward to apply to charges in future billing periods?
As the standard option, we offer monthly settlement with fees debited on the 15th calendar day of the month following the close of the billing period. Alternative schedules may be quarterly, semiannual or annual and are subject to negotiation.
Account analysis statements are generated monthly, regardless of settlement period.
Earnings credit is calculated and applied within the billing cycle it is earned.
You may carry forward excess credit amounts to the next billing cycle on an exception basis.
8. How long will the bank’s pricing, as indicated in this proposal and the Banking Services Bid Form, be fixed?
If we are awarded the contract, all pricing and fees included in this proposal shall remain fixed for a 3-year period from the start of the contract. Any extension period shall be subject to negotiation of mutually agreeable terms, pricing and fees.

Section E – Bank Compensation | 50 |
9. Please detail which types of items and services can be applied against the account analysis in addition to the standard bank services, such as merchant bankcard processing, supplies, custody services, etc. Is there a markup for any of the items? If so, how much? Account analysis can be effectively utilized to offset a variety of items including, but not limited to:
● Supplies: This encompasses a range of necessary banking supplies, including check scanners and deposit supplies. There is no markup applied to these items. We are committed to providing transparent and cost-effective solutions to our clients.
A customized pricing pro forma is provided in Appendix 3.
10. How does the bank charge for overdrafts? Does the bank charge for the use of uncollected funds? If so, how is the charge calculated?
All of your accounts are netted together for tracking intraday liquidity usage. Real-time balance and transaction information is available via our online portal.
Daylight overdrafts are referenced in the context of either intraday credit line (IDL) or intraday liquidity (Fed daylight overdraft) usage. The bank does not charge for intraday or daylight overdrafts.
We charge for the use of end-of-day (EOD) uncollected funds by applying a daily variable overdraft (OD) rate to individual DDAs for each day an overdraft occurs. There may also be a fee per occurrence. Offset Interest and overdraft fees are eligible for offset with earnings credit allowance generated through positive investable balances associated with related stand-alone or group billing relationships.
The negative collected balance fee is calculated daily, as follows:
Negative collected balance fee calculation
(negat ive collected balance x overdraft rate)
360 days
There is also a per occurrence fee for each day an account maintains an EOD negative collected balance.
Our policy is that collected balances be maintained in the account(s) at all times in order to cover daily cash disbursements. Credit arrangements or netting/pooling arrangements that may be required would be determined and discussed in advance with the City’s relationship manager.

Section E – Bank Compensation | 51 |
11. Please state the negative collected balance charge that the City will pay and, in detail, explain how this charge is computed. Is the rate quoted in this proposal good for the term of the contract? The formula for EOD negative collected balance fee is as follows:
Negative collected balance fee calculation
(Negative collected balance x OD rate* x number of days overdrawn) 360 days
*OD rate = J.P. Morgan’s Prime +3%
12. Are Account Analysis Reports available online? If so, specify the cost.
Yes. The City receives an account analysis statement via our online portal each month identifying all services provided, product volumes and the resulting service charge incurred. As per the pricing proforma, there is no charge for account analysis statements online.
Please note that mail postage fees for J.P. Morgan Access Check Print service are not charged through account analysis. You receive a direct debit to your account for these separate fees.
Account analysis statements—How it works
Each month, you receive a detailed account analysis statement for your account. If you have multiple accounts, you receive a summary account analysis statement for your entire billing relationship in addition to a detailed account analysis statement for each individual account. The statement includes:
● Balance/Compensation analysis: Provides a summarized view of the balances, service charges and earnings allowance applied to your account.
● Service/Activity analysis: Details the services used in the statement month by product category.
You can retrieve your electronic account analysis statements on the sixth business day after the close of the billing period. View, print and export all sections of your account analysis statement through the online portal.
Analysis statements are available in PDF, Excel and CSV formats. Additionally, EDI 822 format is available through direct transmission or secure email. We also offer CAMT.086 ISO formatted billing files, the newest industry standard electronic statement, for both U.S. and non-U.S. accounts. 369
Section E – Bank Compensation | 52 |
You can group specific accounts and billing relationships together for online analysis purposes and create user profiles giving access to specific accounts or billing relationships, as required.
We do not charge a fee to provide account analysis statements online.
13. What procedure is used to make any adjustments to the Account Analysis statements, how long does it take for adjustments to take effect, and is there a fee to make the changes? No, there is no fee for adjustments. Details of adjustments to prior periods are provided in separate sections of the current analysis statement and labeled as such in the Financial Recap section.
The City should notify us in writing of any errors or not receiving an account analysis statement within 60 calendar days after the statement is made available.
Errors are researched thoroughly so appropriate adjustments can be applied to the account.
Should there be a billing error and adjustments not completed prior to the direct debit, we will post the difference between the original and corrected service charge as a separate transaction. 370

Section F – Deposit Activity
The City utilizes a variety of methods to process daily deposits. The City is currently under contract for an armored carrier service to perform weekly cash deposit pick-ups at four (4) locations in Murrieta. These locations include Murrieta City Hall, Community Center, Library, and Youth Center.
Total monthly deposits may consist of checks, coins, and currency. Deposited items should be automatically re-cleared once. Checks that are returned are mailed to the City. The City requires the ability to use the local branch to make branch deposits, get change, allow vendors to cash checks, allow employees to cash payroll checks, and for other miscellaneous activities.

2. Please describe the bank’s deposit requirements. How should the coin and currency deposits be prepared? How should un-encoded check deposits be prepared? The City receives materials, including detailed deposit preparation procedures during the initial implementation meeting. Instructions for deposit preparation are summarized below.
Deposit bag requirements
● Must be a clear, tamper-evident, dual-pouch, “cash and check” plastic security bag ● The pouch designated for deposit tickets, checks and money orders should have a resealable closure
● The pouch designated for cash should have a tamper-evident closure 371
Section F – Deposit Activity | 54 |
● The two pouches must be clearly separate from each other, so that there’s no access from one pouch to the other
● One side of the bag must be clear to verify the contents ● The bag number must be barcoded on the outside of the bag Type of bag required for coin deposits greater than $10 We require disposable, heavy-duty, plastic coin bags for coin deposits greater than $10. Coin deposits greater than $10 may be verified on a delayed basis. Coin deposits greater than $10 should be directed to a vault for processing.
Our advanced deposit processing equipment provides the City with timely and accurate posting of your deposits. Once received, our Vault Management System tracks all deposits individually from the point of delivery through verification and posting of the deposit.
Check preparation
First, endorse your checks. The endorsement stamp is a seven-line endorsement legend that conforms to the specifications set forth in Federal Regulation CC. Place the stamp within the first 1.5 inches of the trailing edge of the back of the check.
Next, prepare your check deposits:
● Stack all checks face-up in the same direction.
● Attach a list, such as a calculator tape, computer list or handwritten list showing the sum of the checks in the deposit.
● List checks in the same order as they are in the stack. ● Include a maximum of 100 checks per deposit
Standard currency and coin preparation
For deposits with currency and small amounts of coin, sort currency by denomination. Enclose only one deposit per deposit bag.
Preparing Fed-Ready deposits
To prepare a Fed-Ready deposit, place the appropriate strap per 100 notes of the same denomination as follows:
372
Section F – Deposit Activity | 55 |
Strap Color Strap amount
Hundreds Gold $10,000
Fifties Brown $5,000
Twenties Purple $2,000
Tens Yellow $1,000
Fives Red $500
Twos Green $200
Ones Blue $100
If you do not have enough notes for a standard strap, combine the denominations under one reversed strap, sorted from the smallest to the largest denomination. Place the strap around the currency with the strap reversed (the color/printed side down). Write the total dollar amount on the strap.
The person preparing the straps (all straps, including Fed-Standard and partial) writes legibly or stamps on each strap:
● Location name
● Location number (if applicable)
● Current date
● Preparer's initials
Unfit currency (i.e., badly soiled, dirty, defaced, disintegrated or torn) should be sent in full straps for credit.
Mutilated currency that has been damaged by fire, flooding, chemicals, explosions, animals or insects should be sent to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. For further information please visit the following web site:
https://www.bep.gov/services/mutilated-currency-redemption.
Preparing coin deposits
Small amounts of coin
Place small amounts of coin under $10.00 in an envelope. Write or stamp the depositor’s name, current date, preparer’s initials and the total amount on the envelope. Place all of the loose coin inside the envelope and seal the envelope. Place the envelope in the deposit bag with the currency.
373
Section F – Deposit Activity | 56 |
Large amounts of coin

If you have multiple bags for a single deposit, number the bags (e.g., #1 of 3, #2 of 3, #3 of 3). Do not wrap coin. Each bag must be individually labeled with amount, client name, location number, deposit date and preparer’s initials.
Bulk coin deposit tickets must be sent separately to the vault in an envelope or tamper-evident bag. Do not enclose the deposit ticket in the bag of coin. List the bag numbers on the deposit ticket. We do not accept bulk coin deposits at the branch.
