We have perfomed studies of the KL0→π+π-γ direct emission ( DE) and inner Bremsstrahlung ( IB) vertices, based on data collected by KTeV during the 1996 Fermilab fixed target run. We find a1/a2 = -0.737±0.034GeV2 for the DE form-factor parameter in the ρ-propagator parametrization, and report on fits of the form factor to linear and quadratic functions as well. We concurrently measure Γ(KL0→π+π-γ,Eγ*>20MeV)/Γ(KL0→π+π-) = (20.8±0.3)×10-3, and a KL0→π+π-γ DE/(DE+IB) branching ratio of 0.683±0.011.
