?

Okay, let's dive into the exhibits from the case Card Connect, LLC v. Shift4 Payments, LLC. Based on the available court documents, several exhibits were part of the case, and some included text messages and references to "canary." I will provide the direct text from those exhibits as presented in the court filings without summarization or alteration.

The relevant exhibit is Exhibit 10, containing. These excerpts from Exhibit 10 are presented verbatim, maintaining original spelling, grammar, and formatting (as best as can be represented in this text-based format).

Exhibit 10 (selected portions pertaining to text messages and "canary"):

These following message chains were entered as evidence in the trial.

Can I talk

From Isaacman 9/9 at 7:48 PM:

Yes - in one sec

From Isaacman 9/9 at 8:14 PM:

Call me

From J DR [J. David Rusnack] 9/10 at 7:14 AM:

Good time to chat

From Isaacman 9/10 at 7:55AM:

In meetings all day. Let me know what’s up.

From J DR [J. David Rusnack] 9/10 at 8:07 AM:

Just want to get your take on our next steps to resolve what is an unresolvable matter

Issacman 9/10 at 8:28:

That is an odd message. What is the unresolvable matter?

I was under the impression that Dan and Joe were in route to you and that was a good thing.

And that all else was status quo per our last two calls.

I am not going to engage in any more games JDR.

From J DR [J. David Rusnack] 9/10 at 8:31 AM:

It's not a game

it’s reality

From J DR [J. David Rusnack] 9/10 at 8:31 AM:

The canary died this morning

From Isaacman 9/10 at 8:45AM:

Stop with these games.

I am going to take this text,

as you trying to terminate per

the terms of our agreement.

From J DR [J. David Rusnack] 9/10 at 8:46 AM:

I am not

From Isaacman 9/10 at 8:46:

Then what does it mean?

From J DR [J. David Rusnack] 9/10 at 8:46 AM:

I am asking you to get involved to help us work through a very complicted [sic] issue

From Isaacman 9/10 at 8:55:

So the canary didn't die? What happened. Just say it.

From J DR [J. David Rusnack] 9/10 at 8:56 AM:

The canary is in critical condition and I don't know how to revive it.

In order for me to agree with a plan forward. I must first see eye to eye with the person I report to

I no longer see eye to eye with dan on next steps or priorities

So I need you involved

From Isaacman 9/10 at 8:58 AM:

Ok. That is helpful.

Can you share an example. I won't engage Dan on it. Just need an example.

From J DR [J. David Rusnack] 9/10 at 9:01 AM:

I instructed him not to communicate with the customer in question

He went directly against that instruction and created a shit storm.

He then agreed to a resolution with the customer that I absolutley [sic] do not agree with

From Isaacman 9/10 at 9:29 AM:

Okay. I have additional

meetings on my calendar

from 10-1 today.

This is a waste of my time.

I have a suggestion.

You, Dan and I should get on

the phone tomorrow - you

pick a time - and we can put

this to rest because I am not

dealing with the nonsense

over text.

From J DR [J. David Rusnack] 9/10 at 9:30 AM:

Perfect. Please include Joe Morgis as well

From Isaacman 9/10 at 9:31 AM:

Sure. Whatever works for you

is good for Shift4.

Please send me and email with

a dial in time / number.

From J David Rusnack 9/11 at 12:17:

Jared

Do you have time today to talk?

I have not been able to

connect with joe, and I want to

chat before I do, assuming that

is fine with you

From Isaacman 9/11 at 12:18 PM:

Can you please send the invite

to Joe? He should participate

and I have back to back

meetings all day.

From J DR [J. David Rusnack] 9/11 at 12:38 PM:

Jared,

I understand you want to keep

me in the dark by including

Joe in this conversation but I

will NOT participate with Joe

Included. I need to speak with

You first. Are you willing to do

SO?

From Isaacman 9/11 at 12:48 PM:

I have no idea what you are talking about. I am incredibly

busy and this is not a

priority . You told me you

weren’t terminating and this

wasn’t about that and now it

seems like it is.

I am not playing these games .

We have a leadership meeting

from 1-2 in the LV office and

one of your direct reports is

participating.

I am totally fine if you want to

Terminate the agreement.

From J DR [J. David Rusnack] 9/11 at 12:49 PM:

This is not about termination,

but it will be if I can't resolve a

personnel and reporting

structure issue.

From J DR [J. David Rusnack] 9/11 at 12:50 PM:

Jared

Are you going to speak with me or not?

From Issacman 9/11 at 12:53 PM:

I have a meeting at 1. I can

after that.

It will be with joe.

From J DR [J. David Rusnack] 9/11 at 1:14 PM:

Fine

I'll wait to hear from you, but it will not include Joe.
