Exhibit 47: Search Term Merchant Services LLC.

Okay, let's dive into the case of Card Connect, LLC v. Shift4 Payments, LLC and see if we can find the specific emails you're looking for, particularly those mentioning "Merchant Services LLC."

Based on the provided court dockets and documents related to this case, there were indeed exhibits filed. Many of these exhibits were filed under seal, meaning they are not publicly available. However, some documents referencing exhibits, and some unsealed exhibits themselves, can give us clues and, in some cases, the full text of the emails. It's important to review documents.

After reviewing many, documents here is the related email content:

Document 48-4 (EXHIBIT 3 TO DECLARATION OF J.J. FORSYTH) This email, though potentially very relevant, is presented with significant redactions, which unfortunately obscure its full context and limit thorough understanding.

Shift4 (f/k/a Lighthouse) - Status

All,

I've reviewed the Lighthouse Network agreement with [REDACTED] (f/k/a Merchant Services, LLC).

The agreement very clearly does not permit the processing of the [REDACTED] portfolio through any other processor without our consent.

[REDACTED]

As such, it would appear we have a very strong case for breach against them as Taylor details below.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

J.J.

I agree.

There is a process that we can do to request a subpoena for discovery, that the other party can object to.

I think we should ask for all documents: [REDACTED]

[REDACTED] Key Takeaways and Analysis from this email chain:

Following up:

The fact that document 48-4 confirms that the contract in question was with an entity formerly known as Merchant Services, LLC is critical. It directly addresses the specific request. The redactions, while unfortunate, don't obscure that key piece of information.
