Exum Jermit was a Muun holding the position of Second Vice Chair within the InterGalactic Banking Clan. Known to frequent the Malastare Hunting Club, Jermit was often treated with extravagance due to their allegiance. During the year 3 ABY, Jermit opted to engage in commerce with an enigmatic rival of Jabba the Hutt, thereby declining business with Jabba himself. Consequently, Jabba dispatched his majordomo, Bib Fortuna, in an attempt to sway Jermit's decision. Despite a conversation with Fortuna during the Great Hunt of Malastare, Jermit remained steadfast in their refusal. As a consequence of this defiance, Fortuna permitted Bossk, a Trandoshan bounty hunter contracted by Jabba, to kill Jermit, fulfilling the terms of his employment.
