Special Terms Regarding Share Draft Accounts
Deposits Generally. Once you have established your Share Draft Account (at some Credit Unions, these are called checking accounts), you may make additional deposits into those accounts at any time and in any amount subject to the terms of this Agreement. The above terms regarding "deposits generally" also apply to Share Draft Accounts, except as they may be modified by this section. All drafts drawn on your Share Draft Account may be returned by us unpaid for any reason that drafts are normally returned, such as, for example, insufficient funds, uncollected funds, or litigation.
Share Draft Account Minimum Balance. There is no minimum amount required to open or maintain a Share Draft Account.
Share Draft (Checking) Account. Share drafts must generally be ordered through the Credit Union. If share drafts are not ordered through the Credit Union, the Credit Union will assess a fee whenever problems in clearing such drafts in an automated fashion arise. \fvhen you order share drafts through the Credit Union, the Credit Union will charge your account for the costs of sald share drafts, which costs vary depending on the style of drafts ordered. You may select drafts from the current styles available.
CHECKS PRESENTED FOR PAYMENT IN PERSON. We may refuse to accept any check or draft drawn on your account that is presented for payment in person. Such refusal shall not constitute a wrongful dishonor of the check or draft and we shall have no liability for refusing payment. If we agree to pay a check or draft that is presented for payment in person, we may require the presenter to pay a fee. Any applicable check cashing fees are stated in the Member Fee Schedule.
REMOTELY CREATED CHECKS. For purposes of this paragraph, "account" means a transaction account, credit account, and any other account on which checks (share drafts) may be drawn. A remotely created check is a check created by someone other than the person on whose account the check Is drawn. A remotely created check is generally created by a third party payee as authorized by the owner of the account on which the check is drawn. Authorization is usually made over the telephone or through on-line communication. The owner of the account does not sign a remotely created check. In place of the owner's signature, the remotely created check usually bears a statement that the owner authorized the check or bears the owner's printed or typed name. If you authorize a third party to draw a remotely created check against your account, you may not later revoke your authorization. It is your responsibility to resolve any authorization issues directly with the third party. We are not required to credit your account and may charge against your account any remotely created check for which the third party has proof of your authorization.
Transaction Limitations. Except as otherwise stated in this Agreement, or in any applicable federal or state law or regulation, there are no transaction limitations on this account.
Dividends. Refer to our Truth in Savings Disclosure.
Funds Availability. Funds from deposits you make into your Share Draft Account may not always be immediately available. Refer to our Funds Availability disclosure for more details.
The use of the Share Draft Account is subject to other terms, conditions and requirements as the Credit Union may establish from time to time.
Fees. As with all other accounts, your Share Draft account may be subject to service charges in accordance with the fee schedule adopted by the Credit Union from time to time. You should refer to the Member Fee Schedule for a list of fees. These fees may be changed at our discretion.
Overdraft(s). The Credit Union is under no obligation to pay a share draft you have written, or notify you if it would result in the Share Draft Account being overdrawn (a draft written against your Share Draft Account when insufficient available funds are on deposit in the account Is known as an NSF Share Draft), however, you agree to reimburse the Credit Union for funds advanced if the Credit Union does pay a share draft or other authorized transaction from your account(s), including any fee applicable for such an overdrawn account. You agree for yourself and the person or enlity you represent if you sign as a representative of another, to the terms of this account and the schedule of charges. You authorize us to deduct these charges directly from your share draft account balance as accrued. You will pay any additional reasonable charges for services you request which are not covered by this agreement.
If this Is a Joint account (that is, if two or more people are parties to this account), all of the joint owners are jointly and severally liable to repay the Credit Union the amount of any overdraft and service charges, regardless which of the parties writes the draft that creates an overdraft and regardless of which party benefits from the overdraft. Each of you also agrees to be jointly and severally (individually) liable for any account shortage resulting from charges or overdrafts, whether caused by you or another with access to this account. This liability is due immediately, and can be deducted directly from the account balance whenever sufficient funds are available. You have no right to defer payment of this liability, and you are Hable regardless of whether you signed the item or benefited from the charge or overdraft. This includes liability for our costs to collect the deficit including, to the extent permitted by law, our reasonable attorneys' fees.
Standard Overdraft Protection. If we offer standard Overdraft Protection, you must separately apply and be approved for Overdraft Protection. Overdraft protection Is a revolving line of credit that can be attached to your checking account. To the extent authorized by law, you hereby authorize us to transfer funds from other accounts you maintain at this credit union, to any account upon which you issue a share draft when there are not sufficient funds in the account upon which that draft is issued. If you have a line of credit with this credit union, transfers will be made either from your credit line up to the available credit limit or from your Regular Share Account, if there are sufficient funds in the Regular Share Account. You may elect your preference as to which account funds may be transferred from for this purpose. Any overdraft transfers resulting from this procedure may result in a fee being assessed to your Regular share account. You agree to hold the credit union harmless for any and all liability that may otherwise exist if a transfer does not occur.
Courtesy Pay Overdraft Disclosures. If we offer Courtesy Pay Overdraft Protection, you must separately apply and be approved for Courtesy Pay. These Courtesy Pay Overdraft Disclosures describe the circumstances when we (the credit union) will pay overdrafts in your checking account and charge you a Courtesy Pay fee. "overdraft" means there Is not enough "available balance" In your checking account or any other account funds can be transferred from to pay for a transaction at the time it is presented to us for payment ("posts" to your account). If we pay for an overdraft, we will charge a Courtesy Pay fee. The fee is described in our Fee Schedule, which is updated periodically.
Please note that for ATM and one-time debit card transactions, you must affirmatively consent to this coverage on a separate disclosure. Without your consent, we may not authorize and pay an ATM or one-time debit card transaction that will result in negative available balance in your account.
The following is important information regarding your account balance, how transactions are posted to your account, and when an overdraft fee will be charged. You should read these disclosures carefully. If you have questions, please see a branch representative or give us a call.
Your Checking Account Balance. Your checking account has two kinds of balances: the "actual" balance and the "available" balance. Both can be checked when you review your account online, by phone, or at a branch. It is important to understand how the two balances work so that you know how much money Is In your account at any given time. This section explains actual and available balances and how they work.
Your actual balance is the full amount of all deposits made into your account less payment transactions that have actually "posted" to your account. While the term "actual" may sound as though the number you see is an up-to-date display of what is in your account that you can spend, that is not always the case. It does not reflect checks you have written or payments you have authorized, or holds on deposits that have not yet posted.
For example, if you have a $50.00 actual balance, but you just wrote a check for $40.00, then your actual balance is $50.00 but it does not reflect the pending check transaction. So at that point, you actually have $50, but you have already spent $40. Also, the actual balance does not include holds that may be placed on checks you deposit. Thus, if you deposit a $1,000 check, your actua balance will increase by $1,000 but only $275 may be available for you to spend because there may be a hold on $725 for a period of time.
Your available balance is the amount of money in your account that is available to you to use without incurring an overdraft fee The available balance takes Into account things like holds placed on deposits and pending transactions (such as pending debit card purchases) that the Credit Union has authorized but that have not yet posted to your account. For example, assume you have an actual balance of $50 and an available balance of $50. If you were to use your debit card at a restaurant to buy lunch for $20, then that merchant could ask us to pre-authorize the payment. In that case, we will put a "hold" on your account for $20. Your actual balance would still be $50.00 because this transaction has not yet posted, but your available balance would be $30 because you have committed to pay the restaurant $20. When the restaurant submits its bill for payment (which could be a few days later), we will post the transaction to your account and your actual balance will be reduced by $20. Available balance at the time a transaction posts to your account is used to determine when your account is overdrawn.
It is very Important to understand that you may still overdraw your account even though the available balance appears to show there are sufficient funds to cover a transaction that you want to make. This is because your available balance may not reflect all the outstanding checks and automatic bill payments that you have authorized, or other outstanding transactions that have not been paid from your account. In addition, your available balance may not reflect all of your debit card transactions. For example, if a merchant obtains our prior authorization but does not submit a one-time debit card transaction for payment within three (3) business days of authorization (or for up to thirty (30) business days for certain types of debit card transactions), we must release the authorization hold on the transaction. The available balance will not reflect this transaction once the hold has been released until the transaction has been received by us and paid from your account.
The best way to know how much money you have and avoid paying overdraft fees Is to record and track all of your transactions closely.
IF YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND THIS AGREEMENT OR HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CONTACT us:
Overdraft and Non-Sufficient Funds Fees (NSF). We will charge you a fee each time a payment is made on this account and that payment is returned for Non-Sufficient Funds, and each time that same payment is presented for payment with non-sufficient funds available to cover the payment, regardless of who initiates the re-presentment. The payment could be initiated by us or by you, or by the financial institution on whom the payment is Initiated. So, you could be charged multiple times a Non-Sufficient Funds Fee for the same check or payment, or that same item is re-negotiated with Insufficient funds available to cover that check or payment. You should refer to our Fee Schedule for a list of fees.
Suspension of Services. The Credit Union reserves the right to suspend the benefit of any Credit Union service at any time for reasonable cause. We also have the right to pay any check presented for payment from your account after your account is closed or suspended and we may proceed to collect any such amount paid from you.

Your monthly statement will itemize your canceled drafts by number, date of clearing and the amount of the draft. Any objection respecting any item shown on a periodic statement is waived unless made in writing to the Credit Union before the end of sixty (60) days after the statement is mailed. A copy of any share draft will be available to you as required by law. There may be a small fee to obtain a copy of a draft (see the Member Fee Schedule for a list of fees).

To be binding, an order must be dated, signed, and describe the account and draft number and the exact amount. The stop payment will be effective if the Credit Union receives the order in lime for the Credit Union to act upon the order and you state the number of the account, number of the draft, and its exact amount. You understand that the exact information is necessary for the Credit Union's computer to identify the share draft. If you give us incorrect or Incomplete information, we will not be responsible for falling to stop payment on the draft. If the stop payment order is not received In time for us to act upon the order, we will not be Hable to you or to any other party for payment of the draft. If we re-credit your account after paying a draft over a valid and timely stop payment order, you agree to sign a statement describing the dispute with the payee, to transfer to us all of your rights against the payee or other holders of the draft, and to assist us in any legal action.

An oral stop payment order ceases to be binding after 14 days if I fail to provide this written confirmation of the stop payment order.
Duration of Order. If this stop payment order is for a check/draft, it will expire after 6 months unless renewed in writing. Preauthorized EFTs will never expire, unless I request a withdrawal of the request.
Postdated & Stale Share Drafts. You understand that postdating a share draft will have no effect on whether or not it is honored prior to or after the date of any such share draft.

Share Drafts & Other Access Devises. We may reject any share draft or other Account access device which does not meet Our standards for acceptance by Us, whether such standards are established by law, regulation or our own policy.
Payment Order Of Items. The law permits us to pay items (such as checks or drafts) drawn on your account in any order. To assist you In handling your account with us, we are providing you with the following information regarding how we process the items that you write. When processing items drawn on your account, our policy is to pay them in the order that they are received. The order In which items are paid is important if there is not enough money in your account to pay all of the items that are presented. There is no policy that is favorable to every instance. If the smallest items are paid first, you may have fewer NSF or overdraft fees, but the largest, and perhaps more important items (such as rent or mortgage payments) might not be paid. If an item is presented without sufficient funds in your account to pay it, we may, at our discretion, pay the item (creating an overdraft) or return the item (NSF). The amounts of the overdraft and NSF fees are disclosed elsewhere. By paying items in the order that we receive them, we think our policy attains a reasonable balance between minimizing additional cost to you and paying your more important items. We encourage you to make careful records and practice good account management. This will help you to avoid writing checks or drafts without sufficient funds and Incurring the resulting fees.
Military Lending Act Compliance. Federal law provides important protections to members of the Armed Forces and their dependents relating to extensions of consumer credit. In general, the cost of consumer credit to a member of the Armed Forces and his or her dependent may not exceed an annual percentage rate of 36 percent. This rate must include, as applicable to the credit transaction or account: The costs associated with credit insurance premiums; fees for ancillary products sold In connection with the credit transaction; any application fee charged (other than certain application fees for specified credit transactions or accounts); and any participation fee charged (other than certain participation fees for a credit card account).
Non-Milltary Lending Act Lien & Right of Offset/Enforcement. Unless you are subject to the protections of the Military Lending Act, if you owe us money as a borrower, guarantor, endorser or otherwise, you acknowledge that we have a statutory lien and consensual lien on the account funds in any account in which you have an ownership Interest, regardless of their source, unless prohibited by law. We may apply these funds in any order to pay off your indebtedness. By not enforcing a lien, we do not waive our right to enforce it later. In addition, you grant the Credit Union a consensual security interest in your accounts and we may use the funds from your accounts to pay any debt or amount now or hereafter owed the Credit Union, or for any loss, cost or expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees, we incur as a result of your failure to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement or that we may take to enforce this Agreement or any other Agreement you may enter into with us. This security interest is not applicable to obligations secured by your residence, or unless otherwise may prohibited by appilcable law. We will notify you if we have exercised our right of offset. All accounts are nonassignable and nontransferable to third parties.
If you are or become subject to the provisions of the Military Lending Act, we do not have a statutory or consensual lien on your funds, even if you owe the Credit Union money and even if the loan is in default.
Pledges. Unless Military Lending Act protections apply to a member, while the Credit Union has a priority lien in any deposits, each owner of an account may pledge all or any part of the funds in it for any purpose to which we agree. Unless Military Lending Act protections apply to a member, the Credit Union's lien on any deposit and any pledge of an account must first be satisfied before the rights of any surviving account owner or account beneficiary become effective.
Notice of Receipt of ACH Items. Under the operating rules of the National Automated Clearing House Association which are applicable to ACH transactions Involving your account and as permitted by law, We are not required to give You next day notice of receipt of an ACH item, and We will not do so. We will continue to notify You of the receipt of payments in the periodic statements We provide to You.
Provisional Payment (ACH Origination). Credits given by any Receiving Depository Financial Institution to the receiver with respect to any automated clearing house credit entries subject to Article 4A of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC-4A), are provisional until the Receiving Depository Financial Institution has received final settlement through a Federal Reserve Bank, or has otherwise received payment as provided in §4A-403(a) of UCC-4A. If the Receiving Depository Financial Institution does not receive such final settlement or payment, then they shall be entitled to a refund from the receiver of the amount so credited, and We shall not be deemed to have paid the receiver the amount of such entry.
Provisional Payment (ACH Receipt). Credit given by us to you with respect to any automated clearinghouse credit entry is provisional until we receive final settlement for such entry through a Federal Reserve Bank. If we do not receive final settlement, you are hereby notified and agree that we are entitled to a refund of the amount credited to you in connection with such entry, and the party making payment to you via such entry (i.e., the originator of the entry) shall not be deemed to have paid you the amount of such entry.
USA PATRIOT ACT

WIRE TRANSFER NOTIFICATION
(Uniform Commercial Code Article 4A)
The following rules shall apply to all wire transfer services provided by the Credit Union.
Unite Credit Union may accept, on your behalf, payments to your account that have been submitted by Fedwire. Your rights and obligations with respect to such transfers shall be governed and construed in accordance with Regulation J, Subpart B-Funds Transfers Through Fedwire. These regulations and state law are applicable to funds transfers involving your account.
If you give us a payment order that identifies a beneficiary (the person to whom you are wiring funds) by name and account or some other identifying number (such as a Social Security, Taxpayer I.D. or driver's license number), we may pay the beneficiary on the basis of the number provided to us by you and consider that number to be proper identification. This will be true even if the number you provided to us identifies a person different from the named beneficiary, unless otherwise provided by law or regulation.
If you give us a payment order that identifies the beneficiary's financial institution in the funds transfer by name and Routing and Transit ("R/T") or other identifying number, we, as well as the receiving financial institution, may rely on the number provided to us by you as the proper identification. This will be true even if the number provided identifies a financial institution that is different from the named financial institution, unless otherwise provided by law or regulation. Therefore, it is in your best interest lo contact the receiving institution to acquire the appropriate wire transfer instructions so that you may feel confident that your money will arrive safely. You, the member, are ultimately responsible for providing accurate information regarding funds transfers and are consequently liable for any losses or expenses should an error occur.
You may not be provided with separate notification each time we receive a wire transfer into your account. We will provide you with notification of an incoming wire transfer as part of your periodic statement. In the event we accept payments to your account through one or more Automated Clearing Houses ("ACH"), the operating rules of the National Automated Clearing House Association ("NACHA") will be applicable to ACH transactions involving your account. These rules do not require that we provide you with next day notice of receipt of an ACH item. Therefore, we will provide you with notification of the receipt of these items as part of your periodic statement.
In addition, if we are ever obligated to pay interest on the amount of the transfer, you will be paid interest on a daily basis equal to the current dividend rate that is otherwise applicable to the account from which the funds transfer should have occurred. In the event we are ever liable to you for damages due to a transfer, your damages will be limited to actual damages only. We will not be responsible for incidental or consequential damages, court costs or attorney's fees, unless otherwise provided by law or regulation.
We may accept, on your behalf, payments to your account which have been transmitted through one or more Automated Clearing Houses and that are not subject to the Electronic Funds Transfer Act ("Regulation E"). Your rights and obligations with respect to such payments shall be governed and construed In accordance with the applicable Federal Reserve Bank Operating Circular. Whenever an ACH is used as part of a transaction, its rules will govern that part of the transaction. Where none of the above stated rules apply, the transactions contemplated by this agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Iowa, including Article 4A of the Iowa Uniform Commercial Code.
Credit given by us to you with respect to an ACH entry is provisional until we receive final settlement for the credit entry through a Federal Reserve Bank. If we do not receive final settlement, you are hereby notified that we are entitled to a refund of the amount credited to you in connection with the credit entry. Moreover, you are hereby notified that the party making payment to you (originator) shall not be deemed to have paid you the amount of the credit entry.

FUNDS AVAILABILITY POLICY DISCLOSURE
The following Information describes Unite Credit Union's policy of making funds deposited in a Share Account (also known as a "transaction account") available to you for withdrawal immediately. This Is what is called a Funds Availability Policy. Generally, transaction accounts are accounts, which would permit an unlimited number of payments by check or other order to third persons, and also an unlimited number of telephone and preauthorized transfers to third persons, or other accounts you may have with us.
Determining Availability of Deposits. For determining the availability of your deposits, every day is a business day, except Saturdays, Sundays, and Federal holidays. If you make a deposit on a business day that we are open, we will consider that to be the day of your deposit. However, if you make a deposit after our business hours or on a day we are not open, we will consider that the deposit was made on the next business day we are open. Our hours of operation and closing times are available from the credit union and posted in the credit union lobby.
Your Ability to Withdraw Funds. Our policy is to delay availability of funds to you from deposits of personal checks, third-party checks and certain other instruments. During the delay, deposited funds will not be available for cash withdrawals or used to pay your checks drawn on the account. The hold period(s} on checks are generally two (2) business days. Electronic direct deposits will be available on the day we receive the deposit and you can withdraw the funds in cash and we will use the funds to pay checks that you have written.
Please be aware, however, that all deposits are subject to proof and verification and If you deposit a check, draft or other non-cash item, which Is returned for non-payment for any reason, you authorize us to charge your account for the amount of those funds and we may charge your account without providing prior notice.
Other Check Deposits Availability - Delayed Availability. There may be delayed availability of funds from some checks that are deposited into your accounts. Your deposits may be made available immediately by the Credit Union, however, in some cases, we will not make all of the funds that you deposit by check available to you on the same business day that we receive your deposit. Funds may not be available until the second business day after the date of your deposit. Nonetheless, if all of your deposit is not made available on the same business day of the deposit, the first $275.00 of your deposit will be available on the same day of your deposit. If we are not going to make all of the funds from your deposit available on the same business day, we will notify you at the time you make your deposit. We will also let you know 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 have left the premises, we will mail you the notice by the next business 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. During any delay, you may not withdraw the funds in cash and Unite Credit Union will not use the funds to pay checks that you have written. The length of delay is counted in business days from the day of your deposit, including every day except Saturdays, Sundays and Credit Union observed holidays. A deposit is considered received when it is accepted at one of our branch offices with all appropriate endorsements. A deposit accepted while our data processing system is not online will be considered received when the transaction ls posted in the Unite Credit Union records.
Longer Delays May Apply. If we are not going to make all of the funds from your depsit available on the first business day after the deposit, 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 have 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 d (e.g., missing or altered information, invalid endorsements, or notice from the paying Financial Institution).
- You deposit checks totaling more than $6,725.00 on any one (1) Calendar Day.
- You redeposit a check that has been returned unpaid.
- You have overdrawn your account repeatedly in the last six months.
- There is an emergency, such as failure of computer or communications equipment interrupting business operations.
- Your deposits are drawn on foreign financial Institutions or foreign entities.
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. We reserve the right to refuse any item for deposit.
Deposits at Automated Teller Machines (ATMs). Deposits by cash or check made at Automated Teller Machines will generally be posted to your account within two (2) business days after you submit the deposit, however, in some cases, it may take up to five (5) business days. Any funds subject to hold under our normal hold policy will not be available for withdrawal until the second business day after the day of deposit.
Deposits in Non-transaction Accounts. Regulation CC does not apply to non-transaction or savings deposits; therefore, there is no maximum time frame within which the proceeds of savings deposits must be made available for withdrawal. Our general policy for check holds on non-transaction accounts is to follow the same guidelines used for transaction accounts, although we reserve the right to impose longer holds if deemed necessary. We will notify you if we delay your ability to withdraw funds for any reason, and we will tell you when the funds will be available.
Holds on Other Funds (Check Cashing). If we cash a check for you that is drawn on another financial institution, we may withhold the availability of a corresponding amount of funds that are already in your account. Those funds will be available at the time funds from the check we cashed would have been available had you deposited it
Holds on Other Funds (Other Account). If we accept for deposit a check that is drawn on another financial institution, we may make funds from the deposit available for withdrawal immediately but delay your availability to withdraw a corresponding amount of funds that you have on deposit in another account with us. The funds in the other account would then not be available for withdrawal until the time periods that are described elsewhere in this disclosure for the type of check
Check Endorsements. Federal law requires a proper endorsement on checks to be placed on the back left side of the check within a 1 & ½ inch area. If you fail to properly endorse a check, further delays in processing will be incurred or, the check may be rejected for deposit.
Special Rules for New Accounts. If you are a new member, the following special rules will apply during the first 30 days your account is open. Funds from an electronic direct deposit to your account will be available on the day we receive the deposit. Funds from deposits of cash, wire transfers and the first $6,725.00 of a day's total deposits of cashier's, certified, teller's, traveler's, and federal, state, and local government checks will be available on the first Business Day after the day of deposit If the deposit meets certain conditions. For example, the checks must be payable to you. The amount of the deposit ln excess of $6,725.00 shall be available for withdrawal not later than the ninth business day following the banking day on which funds are deposited. Further delays may apply to checks drawn on foreign entities.
Large Deposits. The availability of funds provisions in this disclosure do not apply to the aggregate amount of deposits by one or more checks to the extent that the aggregate amount is in excess of $6,725.00 on any one business day. For members that have multiple accounts at the credit union, the credit union may apply this exception to the aggregate deposits to all accounts held by the member, even if the member is not the sole holder of the accounts and not all of the holders of the accounts are the same.
