TRUTH-IN-SAVINGS ACCOUNT DISCLOSURE
Except as specifically described, the following disclosures apply to all of the above accounts.

•Rate Information. The Dividend Rate and Annual Percentage Yield on your accounts as of the last Dividend Declaration Date are set forth above. The Annual Percentage Yield is a percentage rate that reflects the total amount of dividends to be paid on an account based on the dividend rate and frequency of compounding for a 365-day period. The Dividend Rate and Annual Percentage Yield may change monthly as determined by the Credit Union’s Board of Directors. On Share Certificates and Share Certificate IRA’s the Annual Percentage Yield is based on an assumption, the dividends will remain on deposit until maturity. A withdrawal will reduce earnings.

•Nature of Dividends. Dividends are paid from current income and available earnings after required transfers to reserves at the end of a dividend period.

•Compounding and Crediting. Dividends will be compounded and credited as set forth in the Rate and Fee Schedule. The Dividend Period begins on the first calendar day of each month and ends on the last calendar day of each month.

•Accrual of Dividends. Dividends will begin to accrue on cash deposits on the business day you make the deposit to your account. Dividends will begin to accrue on non-cash deposits (e.g., checks) on the business day you make the deposit to your account.

•Balance Information. The Rate and Fee Schedule outlines the minimum balance required to open each account. Minimum balances are calculated using the Average daily balance method. Dividends are also calculated using the Average Daily Balance method. The Average Daily Balance method is determined by adding the full amount of principal in the account for each day of the period and dividing that figure by the number of days in that dividend period.

•Account Limitations. Limitations for each account are outlined in the Rate and Fee Schedule. For a Share Savings Account or Money Market Account in which transfer limitations apply, no more than six (6) preauthorized, automatic, telephone transfers or transfers made by check, draft, or debit card may be made from these accounts to another account of your or to a third party in any month. If you exceed these limitations, your account may be subject to a fee or be closed. On Share Certificates and Share Certificate IRA’s after your account is opened, you may make withdrawals of dividends only without penalty.

•Maturity. On Share Certificates and Share Certificate IRA your account will mature within the term set forth above or the maturity date set forth on your Certificate or Maturity Notice. The Credit Union will give the owner at least 30 days notice prior to maturity.
