Let us know if you have questions. Please do not hesitate to call us – we are here to serve you!

Please refer to our separate Schedule of Fees for fees applicable to each particular account. Fees or other conditions could reduce the earnings on your account.

Your savings are federally insured to $250,000 by NCUA (National Credit Union Administration). (NCUSIF) Your IRA accounts are federally insured separately for $250,000 by NCUA.

Except as specifically described, the following disclosures apply to all of the accounts:

1. Rate Information. The Dividend Rate and Annual Percentage Yield on your accounts are set forth above. For all accounts except certificates, the Dividend Rate and Annual Percentage Yield may change monthly as determined by the Board of Directors. The Money Fund, High Yield, and IRA accounts are Tiered Rate Accounts. The Dividend Rate for a particular tier will apply to the entire account balance if the account balance is within the balance range for that tier. The Dividend Rates and Annual Percentage Yields are the prospective rates as of the effective date shown above. For Certificate Accounts, the Dividend Rate and Annual Percentage Yield are fixed and will be in effect for the term of the account. For Certificate accounts, the Annual Percentage Yield is based on an assumption that dividends will remain on deposit until maturity. A withdrawal of dividends will reduce earnings.

2. Nature of Dividends. Dividends are paid from current income and available earnings after required transfers to reserves at the end of a dividend period. The Dividend Rate and Annual Percentage Yield set forth above are the rates and yields for the last dividend period as set forth above.

3. Compounding and Crediting. Dividends will be compounded and credited as set forth above. For dividend bearing accounts, the Dividend Period begins on the first calendar day of the period and ends on the last calendar day of the period.

4. Accrual of Dividends. Dividends will begin to accrue on noncash deposits (e.g., checks) on the business day you make the deposit to your account. If you close your account before accrued dividends are credited, accrued dividends will not be paid.

5. Balance Information. The minimum balance required to open each account and earn the stated Annual Percentage Yield is set forth above. If you do not maintain the minimum balance, you will not earn the stated Annual Percentage Yield. For all dividend bearing accounts, dividends are calculated by using a Daily Balance method, applying a periodic rate to the balance in the account each day.

6. Account Limitations. For all accounts except checking accounts, no more than six preauthorized, automatic, or telephone transfers my be made from these accounts to another account of yours or to a third party in any month, and no more than three of these six transfers may be made by check, draft, or debit card to a third party. If you exceed these limitations, your account may be subject to a fee or be closed. For a Christmas Club account, the entire balance will be paid to you by check or transferred to another account of yours on or after November 1 and the account will remain open. If any withdrawal is made from this account before the end of the club term, then the account will be closed and a $15 penalty will be assessed.

7. Certificate Account Features.

a. Account Limitations. After your account is opened, you may not make additional deposits to a Certificate account.

b. Maturity. Your Certificate account will mature on the maturity date set forth on your Account Receipt or Renewal Notice.

c. Early Withdrawal Penalty. We may impose a penalty if you withdraw any of the principal of your Certificate or IRA account before the maturity date.

(1) Amount of Penalty. For 90 or 180 day Certificate accounts, the amount of the early withdrawal penalty is 30 days dividends calculated on the balance at the time of withdrawal. For other Certificate accounts, the amount of the early withdrawal penalty is 90 days dividends calculated on the balance of the time of withdrawal.

(2) How the Penalty Works. The penalty is calculated as a forfeiture of part of the interest that has been or would be earned at the nominal interest rate on the account. It applies whether or not the interest has been earned. In other words, if the account has not yet earned enough interest or if the interest has already been paid, the penalty will be deducted from the principal.

(3) Exceptions to Early Withdrawal Penalties. At our option, we may pay the account before maturity without imposing an early withdrawal penalty under the following circumstances: when an account owner dies or is determined legally incompetent by a court or other body of competent jurisdiction.

d. Renewal Policy. Certificate accounts are automatically renewable accounts. Automatically renewable accounts will renew for another term upon maturity. You have a grace period of seven days after maturity in which to withdraw funds in the account without being charged an early withdrawal penalty.

e. Nontransferable/Nonnegotiable. Your account is nontransferable and nonnegotiable. The funds in your account may not be pledged to secure any obligation of an owner, except obligations with the Credit Union.
