Rules & Regulations

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF YOUR DEPOSIT ACCOUNT

We are a healthy, growing, locally-owned, independent bank working to improve our community of Atlantic, Iowa.

 

Dear Depositor:

This brochure contains the rules which govern, where appropriate, your deposit account with us. Please read this brochure carefully; continued use of your account with us after receipt of this brochure means you agree to these rules, you agree to pay the fees listed and you give us the right to collect the fees, as earned, directly from the account balance. If you have any questions, please call us.

Much of our relationship with our deposit customers is regulated by state and federal law, especially the law relating to negotiable instruments, the law regulating the methods of transferring property upon death and the rights of surviving spouses and dependents, the law pertaining to estate and other succession taxes, the law regarding electronic funds transfer, and the law regarding the availability of deposited funds.

We may permit some variations from this standard agreement, but any such variations must be agreed to in writing either on our signature card for the account or in some other written form.

As used in this brochure, the word “we” means the financial institution and the word “you” means the account holder.

DEPOSITS & WITHDRAWALS

Any customer may make deposits in the account at any time. If the account is a joint account, any one of the customers may withdraw the entire balance and we are not required to make any inquiry or determination as to the use of the money so withdrawn. If the account is a common account, we may permit customer to withdraw funds by the number and identity of the customer. We are not required to make any inquiry or determination as to the use of the money so withdrawn. If the account is a payable on death or trust account, only the customer indicated may make withdrawals during his lifetime. Thereafter, the designated beneficiary may withdraw any money left in the account. If the account is any other type of account, customer may withdraw funds by the number and identity of the customer(s).

Withdrawals may be made by check or other forms furnished by us. If the account is a savings, certificate of deposit, HiFi or NOW account, we reserve the right to require 14 days notice of any withdrawal. If it is a Super Now account, we reserve the right to require 7 days notice of withdrawal. If it is another type of account, we reserve the right to require such notice of withdrawal as may be required by regulation or law.

Deposits, other than in cash, will be handled as follows. We are the customer’s agent as to all such deposits and are required only to act with due care as to them. We may give credit for such deposits when they are made or may withhold credit until the deposit is actually paid to us. If we give credit when the deposit is made, we may withdraw or revoke such credit at any time before it is actually paid to us. We may forward such deposits to other banks, including the Federal Reserve Bank, and will not be liable for any failure by such bank to exercise due care or make payment to us. We may handle any such deposit in accordance with Federal Reserve requirements.

We may, at any time, apply all or any part of the balance in the account to the payment of any amount owed to us by any customer entitled to make withdrawals from the account.

The account may be subject to service charges or other fees assessed by us from time to time. Such service charges or fees, if any, will be assessed by us uniformly on all accounts of this type.

We will furnish customer with a statement of the account from time to time. Such statements and any other notices may be given to any customer.

TRUST AND PAY-ON-DEATH ACCOUNTS

Except as such an account may be varied by a separate agreement: (1) the person opening a Trust or Pay-on-Death account (called the “settlor”) may withdraw all or any portion of the account balance during his lifetime; (2) any named beneficiary who does not sign the signature card acquires the right to withdraw from the account only if and when he survives the settlor; and (3) if more than one beneficiary is named and survives, the interest of such surviving beneficiaries shall be in equal shares and without survivorship between them.

JOINT ACCOUNT – WITH SURVIVORSHIP

If such an account is indicated on our signature card, each joint tenant intends and agrees that the account balance upon his death shall be the property of the surviving joint tenant, and if more than one survives, they shall remain as joint tenants with right of survivorship between them.

AMENDMENTS AND TERMINATION

We may amend any term of this agreement, from time to time hereafter, upon giving reasonable notice to you. Reasonable notice may consist of posting notice of such changes in our building for a reasonable period of time, enclosing notice in the statement of this account, or separate notice by mail. We may also close this account at any time upon reasonable notice to you and tender of the account balance personally or by mail. Notice from us to any one of you is notice to all of you.

DIRECT DEPOSITS

If, in connection with a direct deposit plan, we deposit any amount in this account which should have been returned to the Federal Government for any reason, you authorize us to deduct the amount of our liability to the Federal Government from this account or from any other account you have with us, without prior notice and at any time, except as prohibited by law. We may also use any other legal remedy to recover the amount of our liability.

ELECTRONIC FUND TRANSFERS

Your Rights and Responsibilities

The Electronic Fund Transfers we are capable of handling for consumers are indicated below, some or all of which may apply to your account. Please read this disclosure carefully because it tells you your rights and obligations for these transactions. You should keep this notice for future reference.

1. TYPES AND LIMITATIONS OF TRANSFERS

Terminal Transfers -Terminals are equipped to handle:

• Cash withdrawals from checking accounts.

• Cash withdrawals from savings accounts.

• Deposits to checking accounts.

• Deposits to savings accounts.

• Transfers of funds between checking and savings accounts upon request.

Some of the services may not be available at all terminals.

Prearranged Transfers – We are equipped to:

• Accept certain direct deposits to your checking account.

• Accept certain direct deposits to your savings account.

• Pay certain recurring bills from your checking account.

• Pay certain recurring bills from your savings account.

Electronic Fund Transfers Initiated By Third Parties. You may authorize a third party to initiate electronic fund transfers between your account and the third party’s account. These transfers to make or receive payment may be one-time occurrences or may recur as directed by you. These transfers may use the Automated Clearinghouse (ACH) or other payments network. Your authorization to the third party to make these transfers can occur in a number of ways. In some cases, your authorization can occur when the merchant posts a sign informing you of their policy. In all cases, the transaction will require you to provide the third party with your account number and bank information. This information can be found on your check as well as on a deposit or withdrawal slip. Thus, you should only provide your bank and account information (whether over the phone, the Internet, or via some other method) to trusted third parties whom you have authorized to initiate these electronic fund transfers.

Examples of these transfers include, but are not limited to:

• Electronic check conversion. You may provide your check to a merchant or service provider who will scan the check for the encoded bank and account information. The merchant or service provider will then use this information to convert the transaction into an electronic fund transfer. This may occur at the point of purchase, or when you provide your check by other means such as by mail or drop box.

• Electronic returned check charge. Some merchants or service providers will initiate an electronic fund transfer to collect a charge in the event a check is returned for insufficient funds.

Limitations on savings accounts

No more than six electronic transfers and withdrawals, or a combination of such transfers and withdrawals, per calendar month or statement cycle (or similar period) of at least four weeks, to another account (including a transaction account) of the depositor at the same institution or to a third party by means of a preauthorized or automatic transfer, or telephonic (including data transmission) agreement, order or instruction, or by draft, debit card, or similar order made by the depositor and payable to third parties. (12 CFR 204.2(d)(2))

YOUR ABILITY TO WITHDRAW FUNDS

Our policy is to make funds from your deposits to transaction accounts available to you on the first business day after the day we receive your deposit. At that time, you can withdraw the funds in cash and we will use the funds to pay checks that you have written.

For determining the availability of your deposits, every day is a business day, except Saturdays, Sundays, and federal holidays. If you make a deposit before 3:00 P.M. on a business day that we are open, we will consider that day to be the day of your deposit. However, if you make a deposit after 3:00 P.M. or on a day we are not open, we will consider that the deposit was made on the next business day we are open.

LONGER DELAYS MAY APPLY

In some cases, we will not make all of the funds that you deposit by check available to you on the first business day after the day of your deposit.  However, Cash and Electronic Deposits will be available the first business day after we receive your deposit for withdrawal and to pay checks that you have written.  For other deposits, depending on the type of check that you deposit, funds may not be available until the second business day. In this case, the first $225 of your deposit will be available on the first business day.

If we are not going to make all of the funds from your deposit available on the first business day, we will notify you at the time you make your deposit. We will also tell you when the funds will be available. If your deposit is not made directly to one of our employees, or if we decide to take this action after you left the premises, we will mail you the notice by the day after we receive your deposit.

If you will need the funds from a deposit right away, you should ask us when the funds will be available.

In addition, funds you deposit by check may be delayed for a longer period under the following circumstances:

We believe a check you deposit will not be paid.

You deposit checks totaling more than $5,525 on any one day.

You redeposit a check that has been returned unpaid.

You have overdrawn your account repeatedly in the last six months.

An emergency, such as failure of communications or computer equipment has occurred.

We will notify you if we delay your ability to withdraw funds for any of these reasons, and we will tell you when the funds will be available. They will generally be available no later than the 7th business day after the day of your deposit.

For deposits into new accounts (less than 30 days old), cash, electronic deposits and the first $5,525 of any U.S. Postal Service money orders, Federal Reserve Bank Checks, State or General Local Government Checks, Cashiers, Certified or Teller Checks and “On Us” checks will be available the first business day after the deposit.

OVERDRAFT CHECKING

CUSTOMER OVERDRAFT POLICY

An Insufficient balance could result in several ways, such as: a) the payment of checks, electronic funds transfers, or other withdrawal requests; b) payments authorized by you; c) the return of unpaid items deposited by you; d) the assessment of bank service charges; or e) the deposit of items which, according to the bank’s Funds Availability Policy, are treated as not yet available or finally paid. We are not obligated to pay any item presented for payment if your account does not contain sufficient funds. Rather than automatically returning, unpaid, any non-sufficient funds items that you have, if your eligible account is in good standing, which includes at least: a) you are not in default on any loan obligation to First Whitney Bank & Trust, b) you bring your account to a positive balance (not overdrawn) at least once every fifteen (15) calendar days, and c) your account is not the subject of any legal or administrative order or levy, we will consider – as a discretionary courtesy or service and not a right of yours nor an obligation on our part-approving your reasonable overdrafts. As an alternative, you may initiate an automatic transfer authorization to have funds transferred from another account at the Bank to cover an overdraft. Normally, we will not approve an overdraft for you in excess of your limit including any overdraft handling charge(s). We may refuse to pay an overdraft for you at any time, even though we may have previously paid overdrafts for you. You will be notified by mail of any non-sufficient funds items paid or returned that you have; however, we have no obligation to notify you before we pay or return any item. The amount of any overdraft plus our overdraft or non-sufficient funds charge(s) of $20.00 each time an item is presented that you owe us shall be due and payable upon demand. If there is an overdraft paid by us on an account with more than one (1) owner on a signature card, each owner, and agent if applicable, drawing/creating the item creating the overdraft, shall be jointly and severally liable for such overdraft, plus our overdraft or non-sufficient funds handling charge(s) of $20.00 per each time an item is presented. You may be able to access your overdraft checking limit through a teller, ATM, ACH, check or debit card purchase.

LIMITATIONS: Available to accounts in good standing. If the overdraft checking service is suspended on three occasions in a 12-month period, the overdraft checking service will be revoked for a period of at least six months. The fees charged for the items paid into overdraft or returned, as well as the amount of the overdraft item(s), will be subtracted from the disclosed overdraft protection dollar limit. The order in which transactions are received and processed can affect the total amount of overdraft fees incurred by a customer. First Whitney Bank & Trust reserves the right to limit participation to one account per customer and to discontinue this product at any time with prior notice. Please advise a Customer Service Representative if you do not wish to have this service available on your account.

AUTOMATIC TRANSFER SERVICE

You simply authorize us in advance in writing to automatically transfer funds from one of your other accounts to cover any overdrafts.

• Avoid the embarrassment of a returned check

This savings account will mature in 18 months from the date of the first deposit.
