TRUTH-IN-SAVINGS ACCOUNT DISCLOSURES

Except as specifically described, the following disclosures apply to all of the accounts. All accounts described in this Truth-In-Savings disclosure are share accounts.

  1. Rate Information. The Annual Percentage Yield is a percentage rate that reflects the total amount of dividends to be paid on an account based the dividend rate and frequency of compounding for an annual period. For all accounts, the Dividend Rate and Annual Percentage Yield are fixed and will be in effect indefinitely. The Credit Union will notify you at least thirty (30) days in advance of any decrease. The Dividend Period begins on the first calendar day of the period and ends on the last calendar day of the period. The dividend Rates and Annual Percentage Yields are the prospective rates and yields that the Credit Union anticipates paying for the applicable dividend period.
  2. Nature of Dividends. Dividends are paid from current income and available earnings after required transfers to reserves at the end of the dividend period.
  3. Dividend Compounding and Crediting. The compounding and crediting of dividends and dividend period applicable to each account are set forth in the Rate Schedule. The Dividend period is the period of time at the end of which an account earns dividend credit.
  4. Accrual of Dividends. For all accounts, dividends will begin to accrue on non-cash deposits (e.g. checks) on the business day you make the deposit to your account. For all accounts, if you close your account before accrued dividends are credited; accrued dividends will not be paid. However, for Christmas Club accounts, any accrued dividends will be paid if you close the account within seven (7) days of the date you open it.
  5. Balance Information. To open any account, you must deposit or already have on deposit at least the par value of one full share in any account. The par value amount is stated in the Fee Schedule. Some accounts may have additional minimum opening deposit requirements. The minimum balance requirements applicable to each account are set forth in the Rate Schedule. For Regular Share accounts, there is a minimum average daily balance requirement to obtain the Annual Percentage Yield for the dividend period. If the minimum average daily balance is not met, you will not earn the stated Annual Percentage Yield. For all accounts using an Average Daily Balance method, dividends are calculated by applying a periodic rate to the average daily balance in the account for the period. The average daily balance is determined by adding the full amount of principle in the account for each day of the period and dividing that figure by the number of days in the period.
  6. Account Limitations. 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 you withdraw any account balance at any time, we will close your account and pay you the full account balance. You may make transfers or withdrawals in the first seven (7) days after the account is opened without restriction. For regular Share accounts, two (2) withdrawals per month are allowed after which a fee will be imposed. Minimum withdrawal amount is 25.00 from regular accounts.
  7. Fees for Overdrawing Accounts. Fees may be imposed on each check, draft, item ATM card withdrawal, debit card point of purchase, preauthorized automatic debit, telephone initiated withdrawal or any other electronic withdrawal or transfer transaction this is drawn on an insufficient available account balance. The entire balance in your account may not be available for withdrawal, transfer or paying a check, draft item. You may consult the Funds Availability Policy for information regarding the availability of funds in your account. Fee for overdrawing your account may be imposed for each overdraft, regardless of whether we pay or return the draft, item or transaction. If we have approved an overdraft protection limit for your account, such fees may reduce your approved limit. Please refer to the Fee Schedule for current fee information.
