Disclosures

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
OF YOUR ACCOUNT
AGREEMENT - This document, along with any
other documents we give you pertaining to your account(s), is a contract that establishes
rules which control your account(s) with us. Please read this carefully. If you
sign the signature card or open or continue to have your account with us, you agree
to these rules. You will receive a separate schedule of rates, qualifying balances,
and fees if they are not included in this document. If you have any questions, please
call us.
This agreement is subject to applicable
federal laws and the laws of the state of Missouri (except to the extent that this
agreement can and does vary such rules or laws). The body of state and federal law
that governs our relationship with you, however, is too large and complex to be
reproduced here. The purpose of this document is to:
- summarize some laws that apply to common
transactions;
- establish rules to cover transactions
or events which the law does not regulate;
- establish rules for certain transactions
or events which the law regulates but permits variation by agreement; and
- give you disclosures of some of
our policies to which you may be entitled or in which you may be interested.
If any provision of this document is found
to be unenforceable according to its terms, all remaining provisions will continue
in full force and effect. We may permit some variations from our standard agreement,
but we must agree to any variation in writing either on the signature card for your
account or in some other document.
As used in this document the words
"we," "our," and "us" mean the financial institution and the words "you" and "your"
mean the account holder(s) and anyone else with the authority to deposit, withdraw,
or exercise control over the funds in the account. The headings in this document
are for convenience or reference only and will not govern the interpretation of
the provisions. Unless it would be inconsistent to do so, words and phrases used
in this document should be construed so the singular includes the plural and the
plural includes the singular.
BYLAWS - Our bylaws, which we
may amend from time to time, establish basic rules about our credit union policies
and operations which affect your account and membership. You may obtain a copy of
the bylaws on request. Our right to require you to give us notice of your intention
to withdraw funds from your account is described in the bylaws. Unless we have agreed
otherwise, you are not entitled to receive any original item after it is paid, although
you may request that we send you an item(s) or a copy of an item(s). Dividends are
based on current earnings and available earnings of the credit union, after providing
for required reserves.
LIABILITY - You agree, for yourself
(and the person or entity 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 the account balance as accrued. You will pay any additional
reasonable charges for services you request which are not covered by this agreement.
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 liable 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.
DEPOSITS - We will give only
provisional credit until collection is final for any items, other than cash, we
accept for deposit (including items drawn "on us"). Before settlement of any item
becomes final, we act only as your agent, regardless of the form of indorsement
or lack of indorsement on the item and even though we may provide you provisional
credit for the item. We may reverse any provisional credit for items that are lost,
stolen, or returned. Actual credit for deposits of, or payable in, foreign currency
will be at the exchange rate in effect on final collection in U.S. dollars. We are
not responsible for transactions by mail or outside depository until we actually
record them. We will treat and record all transactions received after our "daily
cutoff time" on a business day we are open, or received on a day we are not open
for business, as if initiated on the next following business day that we are open.
At our option, we may take an item for collection rather than for deposit. If we
accept a third-party check for deposit, we may require any third-party indorsers
to verify or guarantee their indorsements, or indorse in our presence.
WITHDRAWALS -
Generally - Unless clearly indicated
otherwise on the account records, any of you, acting alone, who signs in the space
designated for signatures on the signature card may withdraw or transfer all or
any part of the account balance at any time. Each of you (until we receive written
notice to the contrary) authorizes each other person signing the signature card
to indorse any item payable to you or your order for deposit to this account or
any other transaction with us.
Postdated checks - A postdated
check is one which bears a date later than the date on which the check is written.
We may properly pay and charge your account for a postdated
check even though payment was made before the date of the check, unless we have
received written notice of the postdating in time to have a reasonable opportunity
to act.
Checks and withdrawal rules - If you do
not purchase your check blanks from us, you must be certain that we approve the
check blanks you purchase. We may refuse any withdrawal or transfer request which
you attempt on forms not approved by us or by any method we do not specifically
permit. We may refuse any withdrawal or transfer request which is greater in number
than the frequency permitted, or which is for an amount greater or less than any
withdrawal limitations. We will use the date the transaction is completed by us
(as opposed to the date you initiate it) to apply the frequency limitations. See
the funds availability policy disclosure for information about when you can withdraw
funds you deposit. For those accounts to which our funds availability policy disclosure
does not apply, you can ask us when you make a deposit when those funds will be
available for withdrawal.
Waivers - Even if we honor a
nonconforming request, we are not required to do so later. We may treat continued
abuse of the stated limitations (if any) as your act of closing the account, or
we may at our option reclassify your account as a transaction account. If we reclassify
your account, your account will be subject to the fees and earnings rules of the
new account classification. The fact that we may honor withdrawal requests that
overdraw the account balance does not obligate us to do so later.
OWNERSHIP OF ACCOUNT AND BENEFICIARY
DESIGNATION - These rules apply to this account depending on the form of ownership
and beneficiary designation, if any, specified on the account records. We reserve
the right to refuse some forms of ownership on any or all of our accounts. We make
no representations as to the appropriateness or effect of the ownership and beneficiary
designations, except as they determine to whom we pay the account funds.
Individual Account - is an account
in the name of one person.
Joint Account - With Survivorship
(And Not As A Tenancy By The Entirety Or As Tenants In Common) - is an account
in the name of two or more persons. Each of you intend that when you die the balance
in the account (subject to any previous pledge to which we have agreed) will belong
to the survivor(s). If two or more of you survive, you will own the balance in the
account as joint tenants with survivorship and not as tenants in common.
Joint Account - As Tenants In Common
Without Survivorship (And Not As A Tenancy By The Entirety) - is owned by two
or more persons, but none of you intend (merely by opening this account) to create
any right of survivorship in any other person. We encourage you to agree and tell
us in writing of the percentage of the deposit contributed by each of you. This
information will not, however, affect the "number of signatures" necessary for withdrawal.
Revocable Trust Account (not subject
to the Nonprobate Transfers Law of Missouri) - If two or more of you create
such an account, you own the account jointly with survivorship. Beneficiaries cannot
withdraw unless: (1) all persons creating the account die, and (2) the beneficiary
is then living. If two or more beneficiaries are named and survive the death of
all persons creating the account, such beneficiaries will own this account in equal
shares, without right of survivorship. The person(s) creating this account type
reserves the right to: (1) change beneficiaries, (2) change account types, and (3)
withdraw all or part of the account funds at any time.
Registration in Beneficiary Form
- LDPS means a class of unnamed persons who are the lineal descendants per stirpes
of a beneficiary and who are to take upon surviving, in place of and with the same
priority as the named individual for whom they are indicated as substitutes.
BUSINESS ACCOUNTS - Earnings
in the form of interest, dividends, or credits will be paid only on collected funds,
unless otherwise provided by law or our policy. We may require the governing body
of the legal entity opening the account to give us a separate authorization telling
us who is authorized to act on its behalf. We will honor the authorization until
we actually receive written notice of a change from the governing body of the legal
entity.
STOP PAYMENTS - Unless otherwise
provided, the rules in this section cover stopping payment of items such as checks
and drafts. Rules for stopping payment of other types of transfers of funds, such
as consumer electronic fund transfers, may be established by law or our policy.
If we have not disclosed these rules to you elsewhere, you may ask us about those
rules.
We may accept an order to stop payment
on any item from any one of you. You must make any stop-payment order in the manner
required by law and we must receive it in time to give us a reasonable opportunity
to act on it before our stop-payment cutoff time. Because stop-payment orders are
handled by computers, to be effective, your stop-payment order must precisely identify
the number, date, and amount of the item, and the payee.
You may stop payment on any item drawn
on your account whether you sign the item or not, if you have an equal or greater
right to withdraw from this account than the person who signed the item. Generally,
if your stop-payment order is given to us in writing it is effective for six months.
Your order will lapse after that time if you do not renew the order in writing before
the end of the six-month period. If the original stop-payment order was verbal your
stop-payment order will lapse after 14 calendar days if you do not confirm your
order in writing within that time period. We are not obligated to notify you when
a stop-payment order expires. A release of the stop-payment request may be made
only by the person who initiated the stop-payment order.
If
you stop payment on an item and we incur any damages or expenses because of the
stop payment, you agree to indemnify us for those damages or expenses, including
attorneys' fees. You assign to us all rights against the payee or any other holder
of the item. You agree to cooperate with us in any legal actions that we may take
against such persons. You should be aware that anyone holding the item may be entitled
to enforce payment against you despite the stop-payment order.
TELEPHONE TRANSFERS - A telephone transfer
of funds from this account to another account with us, if otherwise arranged for
or permitted, may be made by the same persons and under the same conditions generally
applicable to withdrawals made in writing. Unless a different limitation is disclosed
in writing, we restrict the number of transfers from a savings account to another
account or to third parties, to a maximum of six per month (less the number of "preauthorized
transfers" during the month). Other account transfer restrictions may be described
elsewhere.
TRANSFER LIMITATIONS - For savings
accounts you may make up to six transfers or withdrawals by means of a preauthorized,
automatic, or telephonic transfer to another account of yours or to a third party
during any calendar month (or statement cycle of at least four weeks). Of these
six, you may make no more than three transfers to a third party by check, debit
card, or similar order. A preauthorized transfer includes any arrangement with us
to pay a third party from your account at (i) a predetermined time; (ii) on a fixed
schedule or (iii) upon oral or written orders including orders received through
the automated clearing house (ACH). If the transfer or withdrawal is initiated in
person, by mail, or at an ATM then there is no limit on the number of payments that
may be made directly to you, directly to us for amounts you owe us, or transfers
to other accounts you have with us. Withdrawals by phone are also unlimited if you
are requesting that a check be mailed to you.
AMENDMENTS AND TERMINATION - We may change our bylaws and any term of this agreement. Rules governing changes
in rates are provided separately in the Truth-in-Savings disclosure or in another
document. For other changes we will give you reasonable notice in writing or by
any other method permitted by law. We may close this account if your membership
in the credit union terminates, or by giving reasonable notice to you and tender
of the account balance personally or by mail. Items presented for payment after
the account is closed may be dishonored. When you close your account, you are responsible
for leaving enough money in the account to cover any outstanding items and charges
to be paid from the account. Reasonable notice depends on the circumstances, and
in some cases it might be reasonable for us to give you notice after the change
or account closure becomes effective. For instance, if we suspect fraudulent activity
with respect to your account, we might immediately freeze or close your account
and then give you notice. At our option, we may suspend your rights to member services
if you violate the terms of this agreement. You must keep us informed of your current
address at all times. Notice from us to any one of you is notice to all of you.
If we have notified you of a change in any term of your account and you continue
to have your account after the effective date of the change, you have agreed to
the new term(s).
STATEMENTS - Statements are
a valuable tool to help prevent fraudulent or mistaken transfers. Your statement
will show the transactions that occurred in connection with your account during
the statement period. Your statement will provide sufficient information for you
to reasonably identify the items paid (item number, amount, and date of payment).
You should keep a record of each transaction as it is made so that when we give
you the information in the statement, you will have a complete understanding of
each transaction listed.
You have some responsibilities in connection
with your statement. You must examine your statement with "reasonable promptness."
Also, if you discover (or reasonably should have discovered) any unauthorized signatures
or alterations, you must promptly notify us of the relevant facts. As between you
and us, if you fail to do either of these duties, you must bear the loss entirely
yourself or share the loss with us (we may have to share some of the loss if we
failed to use ordinary care and if we substantially contributed to the loss). The
loss you might bear, in whole or part, could be not only with respect to items listed
on the statement, but also other items with unauthorized signatures or alterations
by the same wrongdoer. Of course, an attempt can be made to recover the loss from
the thief, but this is often unsuccessful.
You agree that the time you have to
examine your statement and report to us will depend on the circumstances, but you
will not, in any circumstance, have a total of more than 30 days from when we first
send or make the statement available to you.
You further agree that if you fail
to report any unauthorized signatures, alterations, or any other errors in your
account within 60 days of when we first send or make the statement available, you
cannot assert a claim against us on any items in that statement, and as between
you and us the loss will be entirely yours. This 60-day limitation is without regard
to whether we exercised ordinary care. The limitation in this paragraph is in addition
to those contained in the second paragraph of this section.
Contact us if you do not receive your
regular statement. If this is a business account, you agree that you will have at
least two people review your statements, notices, and returned checks, or in the
alternative, the person who reviews these will be someone who does not have authority
to transact business on the account.
ACCOUNT TRANSFER - This account
may not be transferred or assigned without our prior written consent.
DIRECT DEPOSITS - If, in connection
with a direct deposit plan, we deposit any amount in an 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 the 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.
TEMPORARY ACCOUNT AGREEMENT - If this option
is selected, this is a temporary account agreement. This means that all account
owners have not yet signed the signature card, or that some other account opening
requirement has not been completed. We may give you a duplicate signature card so
that you can obtain all of the necessary signatures and return it to us. Each person
who signs in the space designated for signatures on the signature card (except as
indicated to the contrary) may transact business on this account. However, we may
at some time in the future restrict or prohibit further use of this account if you
fail to comply with the requirements we have imposed within a reasonable time.
RIGHT TO REPAYMENT OF INDEBTEDNESS
- You each agree that we may (without prior notice and when permitted by law)
charge against and deduct from this account any due and payable debt owed to us
now or in the future, by any of you having the right of withdrawal, to the extent
of such persons' or legal entity's right to withdraw. If the debt arises from a
note, "any due and payable debt" includes the total amount of which we are entitled
to demand payment under the terms of the note at the time we charge the account,
including any balance the due date for which we properly accelerate under the note.
In addition to these contract rights,
we may also have rights under a "statutory lien." A "lien" on property is a creditor's
right to obtain ownership of the property in the event a debtor defaults on a debt.
A "statutory lien" is one created by federal or state statute. If federal or state
law provides us with a statutory lien, then we are authorized to apply, without
prior notice, your shares and dividends to any debt you owe us, in accord with the
statutory lien.
Neither our contract rights nor rights
under a statutory lien apply to this account if: (a) it is an Individual Retirement
Account or other tax-deferred retirement account, or (b) the debt is created by
a consumer credit transaction under a credit card plan (but this does not affect
our rights under any consensual security interest), or (c) the debtor's right of
withdrawal arises only in a representative capacity. We will not be liable for the
dishonor of any check or draft when the dishonor occurs because we charge and deduct
an amount you owe us from your account. You agree to hold us harmless from any claim
arising as a result of our exercise of our right to repayment.
AUTHORIZED SIGNER (Individual Accounts
only) - A single individual is the owner. The authorized signer is merely designated
to conduct transactions on the owner's behalf. The owner does not give up any rights
to act on the account, and the authorized signer may not in any manner affect the
rights of the owner or beneficiaries, if any. The owner is responsible for any transactions
of the authorized signer. We undertake no obligation to monitor transactions to
determine that they are on the owner's behalf.
The owner may terminate the authorization
at any time, and the authorization is automatically terminated by the death of the
owner. However, we may continue to honor the transactions of the authorized signer
until: (a) we have received written notice or have actual knowledge of the termination
of authority, and (b) we have a reasonable opportunity to act on that notice or
knowledge. We may refuse to accept an authorized signer.
RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS - The automated
processing of the large volume of checks we receive prevents us from inspecting
or looking for special instructions or "restrictive legends" on every check. Examples
of restrictive legends placed on checks are "must be presented within 90 days" or
"not valid for more than $1,000.00." For this reason, we are not required to honor
any restrictive legend placed on checks you write unless we have agreed in writing
to the restriction. We are not responsible for any losses, claims, damages, or expenses
that result from your placement of these or other special instructions on your checks.
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 according
to the dollar amount. We pay the smallest items first. 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. Our payment policy minimizes the number of items that
may result in an overdraft or NSF fee. 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. 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.
PLEDGES - Unless we agree otherwise
in writing, each owner of this account may pledge all or any part of the funds in
it for any purpose to which we agree. Any pledge of this account must first be satisfied
before the rights of any surviving account owner or account beneficiary become effective.
ACH AND WIRE TRANSFERS - This
agreement is subject to Article 4A of the Uniform Commercial Code - Fund Transfers
as adopted in the state in which you have your account with us. If you originate
a fund transfer for which Fedwire is used, and you identify by name and number a
beneficiary financial institution, an intermediary financial institution or a beneficiary,
we and every receiving or beneficiary financial institution may rely on the identifying
number to make payment. We may rely on the number even if
it identifies a financial institution, person or account other than the one named.
You agree to be bound by automated clearing house association rules. These rules
provide, among other things, that payments made to you, or originated by you, are
provisional until final settlement is made through a Federal Reserve Bank or payment
is otherwise made as provided in Article 4A-403(a) of the Uniform Commercial Code.
If we do not receive such payment, we are entitled to a refund from you in the amount
credited to your account and the party originating such payment will not be considered
to have paid the amount so credited. If we receive a credit to an account you have
with us by wire or ACH, we are not required to give you any notice of the payment
order or credit.
FACSIMILE SIGNATURES - Unless you make
advance arrangements with us, we have no obligation to honor facsimile signatures
on your checks or other orders. If we do agree to honor items containing facsimile
signatures, you authorize us, at any time, to charge you for all checks, drafts,
or other orders, for the payment of money, that are drawn on us. You give us this
authority regardless of by whom or by what means the facsimile signature(s) may
have been affixed so long as they resemble the facsimile signature specimen filed
with us, and contain the required number of signatures for this purpose. You must
notify us at once if you suspect that your facsimile signature is being or has been
misused.
POWER OF ATTORNEY - You may
wish to appoint an agent to conduct transactions on your behalf. (We, however, have
no duty or agreement whatsoever to monitor or insure that the acts of the agent
are for your benefit.) This may be done by allowing your agent to sign in that capacity
on the signature card or by separate form, such as a power of attorney. A power
of attorney continues until your death or the death of the person given the power.
If the power of attorney is not "durable," it is revoked when you become incompetent.
We may continue to honor the transactions of the agent until: (a) we have received
written notice or have actual knowledge of the termination of the authority or the
death of an owner, and (b) we have had a reasonable opportunity to act on that notice
or knowledge. You agree not to hold us responsible for any loss or damage you may
incur as a result of our following instructions given by an agent acting under a
valid power of attorney.
STALE-DATED CHECKS - We are
not obligated to, but may at our option, pay a check, other than a certified check,
presented for payment more than six months after its date. If you do not want us
to pay a stale-dated check, you must place a stop-payment order on the check in
the manner we have described elsewhere.
NCUA INSURANCE - Funds in your account(s)
with us are insured by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) and backed
by the full faith and credit of the United States. The amount of insurance coverage
you have depends on the number of accounts you have with us that are of different
"ownership." An individual account is one unique form of "ownership"; a joint account,
a pay-on-death account, and a self directed qualified retirement account (e.g.,
an IRA) are examples of some of the others. Share insurance for a person's self
directed qualified retirement account is up to $250,000. (An IRA is a self directed
qualified retirement account as is any account where the owner decides where and
how to invest the balance.) Share insurance for the other ownerships is at least
$100,000 per interest of the owner. If you want a more detailed explanation or additional
information, you may ask us or contact the NCUA. You can also visit the NCUA website
at www.ncua.gov and click on the Share Insurance link. The link includes detailed
contact information as well as a share insurance estimator.
INDORSEMENTS - We may accept for deposit
any item payable to you or your order, even if they are not indorsed by you. We
may give cash back to any one of you. We may supply any missing indorsement(s) for
any item we accept for deposit or collection, and you warrant that all indorsements
are genuine.
UNCLAIMED PROPERTY - The law
establishes procedures under which unclaimed property must be surrendered to the
state. (We may have our own rules regarding dormant accounts, and if we charge a
fee for dormant accounts it will be disclosed to you elsewhere.) Generally, the
funds in your account are considered unclaimed if you have not had any activity
or communication with us regarding your account over a period of years. Ask us if
you want further information about the period of time or type of activity that will
prevent your account from being unclaimed. If your funds are surrendered to the
state, you may be able to reclaim them, but your claim must be presented to the
state. Once your funds are surrendered, we no longer have any liability or responsibility
with respect to the funds.
DEATH OR INCOMPETENCE - You
agree to notify us promptly if any person with a right to withdraw funds from your
account(s) dies or becomes legally incompetent. We may continue to honor your checks,
items, and instructions until: (a) we know of your death or incompetence, and (b)
we have had a reasonable opportunity to act on that knowledge. You agree that we
may pay or certify checks drawn on or before the date of death or legal incompetence
for up to ten (10) days after your death or legal incompetence unless ordered to
stop payment by someone claiming an interest in the account.
UTMA ACCOUNTS - Under the Uniform
Transfers to Minors Act, the funds in the account are owned by the child who has
unconditional use of the account when he or she reaches the age of majority. Before
that time, the account may be accessed only by the custodian (or successor custodian),
and the funds must be used for the benefit of the child. We, however, have no duty
or agreement whatsoever to monitor or insure that the acts of the custodian (or
successor custodian) are for the child's benefit. For this type of account, the
child's SSN/TIN is used for the Backup Withholding Certification.
FIDUCIARY ACCOUNTS - Accounts
may be opened by a person acting in a fiduciary capacity. This account may be opened
and maintained by a person or persons named as a trustee under a written trust agreement,
or as executors, administrators, or conservators under
court orders. You understand that by merely opening such an account, we are not
acting in the capacity of a trustee in connection with the trust nor do we undertake
any obligation to monitor or enforce the terms of the trust or letters.
CASH TRANSACTION REPORTING - To help law
enforcement agencies detect illegal activities, the law requires all financial institutions
to gather and report information on some types of cash transactions. If the information
we need to complete the report is not provided, we are required to refuse to handle
the transaction. If you have any questions regarding these rules, please contact
your local Internal Revenue Service office.
BACKUP WITHHOLDING/TIN CERTIFICATION
- Federal tax law requires us to report interest payments we make to you of
$10 or more in a year, and to include your taxpayer identification number (TIN)
on the report (the taxpayer identification number is your social security number
if you are an individual). Interest includes dividends, interest and bonus payments
for purposes of this rule. Therefore, we require you to provide us with your TIN
and to certify that it is correct. In some circumstances, federal law requires us
to withhold and pay to the IRS a percentage of the interest that is earned on funds
in your accounts. This is known as backup withholding. We will not have to withhold
interest payments when you open your account if you certify your TIN and certify
that you are not subject to backup withholding due to underreporting of interest.
(There are special rules if you do not have a TIN but have applied for one, if you
are a foreign person, or if you are exempt from the reporting requirements.) We
may subsequently be required to begin backup withholding if the IRS informs us that
you supplied an incorrect TIN or that you underreported your interest income.
CREDIT VERIFICATION - You agree
that we may verify credit and employment history by any necessary means, including
preparation of a credit report by a credit reporting agency.
TRANSACTIONS BY MAIL - You may
deposit checks by mail. You should indorse the check being sent through the mail
with the words "For Deposit Only" and should include your correct account number
underneath to ensure the check is credited to the correct account. You should use
the pre-encoded checking deposit slips found behind your checks in your checkbook.
If you do not use your deposit slip or provide us with instructions indicating how
or where the check should be credited, we may apply it to any account or any loan
balance you have with us or we may return the check to you. Receipts for such transactions
will be mailed to you only if a self-addressed stamped envelope is provided. Following
your deposit, examine your statement carefully or call us to ensure that we received
the item. Do not send cash through the mail for deposit.
LEGAL ACTIONS AFFECTING YOUR ACCOUNT
- If we are served with a subpoena, restraining order, writ of attachment or
execution, levy, garnishment, search warrant, or similar order relating to your
account (termed "legal action" in this section), we will comply with that legal
action. In these cases, we will not have any liability to you if there are insufficient
funds to pay your items because we have withdrawn funds from your account or in
any way restricted access to your funds in accordance with the legal action. Any
fees or expenses we incur in responding to any legal action (including, without
limitation, attorneys' fees and our internal expenses) may be charged against your
account. The list of fees applicable to your account(s) provided elsewhere may specify
additional fees that we may charge for certain legal actions.
CHECK PROCESSING - We may process
items mechanically by relying on the information encoded along the bottom of the
items. This means that we do not individually examine all of your items to determine
if the item is properly completed, signed and indorsed. We may accept, pay, certify
or charge items in any order. We may determine the amount of available funds in
your account for the purpose of deciding whether to return an item for insufficient
funds at any time between the time we receive the item and when we return the item
or send a notice in lieu of return. We need only make one determination, but if
we choose to make a subsequent determination, the account balance at the subsequent
time will determine whether there are insufficient available funds.
CHECK STORAGE AND COPIES - You
agree that you will not receive your canceled checks. We will store your canceled
checks or copies of them for a reasonable retention period. You may request copies
from us in the manner we require.
SECURITY - It is your responsibility
to protect the account numbers and electronic access devices (e.g., an ATM card)
we provide you for your account(s). Do not discuss, compare, or share information
about your account number(s) with anyone unless you are willing to give them full
use of your money. An account number can be used by thieves to encode your number
on a false demand draft which looks like and functions like an authorized check.
If you furnish your access device and grant actual authority to make transfers to
another person (a family member or coworker, for example) who then exceeds that
authority, you are liable for the transfers unless we have been notified that transfers
by that person are no longer authorized.
Your account number can also be used
to electronically remove money from your account. If you provide your account number
in response to a telephone solicitation for the purpose of making a transfer (to
purchase a service or merchandise, for example), payment can be made from your account
even though you did not contact us directly and order the payment.
You must also take precaution in safeguarding
your blank checks. Notify us at once if you believe your checks have been lost or
stolen. As between you and us, if you are negligent in safeguarding your checks,
you must bear the loss entirely yourself or share the loss with us (we may have
to share some of the loss if we failed to use ordinary care and if we substantially
contributed to the loss).
REMOTELY CREATED CHECKS - Like
any standard check or draft, a remotely created check (sometimes called a telecheck,
preauthorized draft or demand draft) is a check or
draft that can be used to withdraw money from an account. Unlike a typical check
or draft, however, a remotely created check is not issued by the paying bank and
does not contain the signature of the account owner (or a signature purported to
be the signature of the account owner). In place of a signature, the check usually
has a statement that the owner authorized the check or has the owner's name typed
or printed on the signature line. For example, if a person provides an account number
in response to a telephone solicitation, the telephone solicitor can use the account
number to issue a remotely created check to withdraw money from that account.
You warrant and agree to the following for every
remotely created check we receive from you for deposit or collection: (1) you have
received express and verifiable authorization to create the check in the amount
and to the payee that appears on the check; (2) you will maintain proof of the authorization
for at least 2 years from the date of the authorization, and supply us the proof
if we ask; and (3) if a check is returned you owe us the amount of the check, regardless
of when the check is returned. We may take funds from your account to pay the amount
you owe us, and if there are insufficient funds in your account, you still owe us
the remaining balance.
CLAIM OF LOSS - If you claim a credit
or refund because of a forgery, alteration, or any other unauthorized withdrawal,
you agree to cooperate with us in the investigation of the loss, including giving
us an affidavit containing whatever reasonable information we require concerning
your account, the transaction, and the circumstances surrounding the loss. You will
notify law enforcement authorities of any criminal act related to the claim of lost,
missing, or stolen checks or unauthorized withdrawals. We will have a reasonable
period of time to investigate the facts and circumstances surrounding any claim
of loss. Unless we have acted in bad faith, we will not be liable for special or
consequential damages, including loss of profits or opportunity, or for attorneys'
fees incurred by you.
You agree that you will not waive any
rights you have to recover your loss against anyone who is obligated to repay, insure,
or otherwise reimburse you for your loss. You will pursue your rights or, at our
option, assign them to us so that we may pursue them. Our liability will be reduced
by the amount you recover or are entitled to recover from these other sources.
EARLY WITHDRAWAL PENALTIES (and
involuntary withdrawals) - We may impose early withdrawal penalties on a withdrawal
from a time account even if you don't initiate the withdrawal. For instance, the
early withdrawal penalty may be imposed if the withdrawal is caused by our setoff
against funds in the account or as a result of an attachment or other legal process.
We may close your account and impose the early withdrawal penalty on the entire
account balance in the event of a partial early withdrawal. See your notice of penalty
for early withdrawals for additional information.
ADDRESS OR NAME CHANGES - You
are responsible for notifying us of any change in your address or your name. Unless
we agree otherwise, change of address or name must be made in writing by at least
one of the account holders. Informing us of your address or name change on a check
reorder form is not sufficient. We will attempt to communicate with you only by
use of the most recent address you have provided to us. If provided elsewhere, we
may impose a service fee if we attempt to locate you.
MEMBERSHIP ELIGIBILITY - You
may be eligible to join this Credit Union if you live or work in Audrain or Callaway
County in Missouri at the time you join the credit union, you are a family member
of a current member, and you are a U.S. citizen or resident alien. Written proof
of residency and a current photo I.D. are required.
In addition, you must purchase and
maintain at least one share as required by the credit union's bylaws. A joint tenant
on any account offered by this credit union cannot vote, borrow money, or hold office,
unless the joint tenant is within the field of membership of this credit union and
is also a qualified member
RESOLVING ACCOUNT DISPUTES -
We may place an administrative hold on the funds in your account (refuse payment
or withdrawal of the funds) if it becomes subject to a claim adverse to (1) your
own interest; (2) others claiming an interest as survivors or beneficiaries of your
account; or (3) a claim arising by operation of law. The hold may be placed for
such period of time as we believe reasonably necessary to allow a legal proceeding
to determine the merits of the claim or until we receive evidence satisfactory to
us that the dispute has been resolved. We will not be liable for any items that
are dishonored as a consequence of placing a hold on funds in your account for these
reasons.
--------------------------
NOTICE OF NEGATIVE INFORMATION
Federal law requires us to provide the following
notice to members before any "negative information" may be furnished to a nationwide
consumer reporting agency. "Negative information" includes information concerning
delinquencies, overdrafts or any form of default. This notice does not mean that
we will be reporting such information about you, only that we may report such information
about members that have not done what they are required to do under our agreement.
After providing this notice, additional
negative information may be submitted without providing another notice.
We may report information about
your account to credit bureaus. Late payments, missed payments or other defaults
on your account may be reflected in your credit report.
--------------------------
ELECTRONIC FUND TRANSFERS
YOUR RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Indicated below are types of Electronic Fund Transfers
we are capable of handling, some of which may not apply to your account. Please
read this disclosure carefully because it tells you your rights and obligations
for the transactions listed. You should keep this notice for future reference.
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 Clearing House (ACH) or other payments network. Your authorization
to the third party to make these transfers can occur in a number of ways. For example,
your authorization to convert a check or draft to an electronic fund transfer or
to electronically pay a returned check or draft charge can occur when a merchant
provides you with notice and you go forward with the transaction (typically, at
the point of purchase, a merchant will post a sign and print the notice on a receipt).
In all cases, these third party transfers will require you to provide the third
party with your account number and credit union information. This information can
be found on your check or draft as well as on a deposit or withdrawal slip. Thus,
you should only provide your credit union 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:
- Preauthorized credits. You may
make arrangements for certain direct deposits to be accepted into your share draft
or share savings account(s).
- Preauthorized payments. You may make arrangements to pay certain recurring bills from your share draft or
share savings account(s).
- Electronic check or
draft conversion. You may authorize a merchant or other payee to make a one-time
electronic payment from your checking or share draft account using information from
your check or draft to pay for purchases or pay bills.
- Electronic returned
check or draft charge. You may authorize a merchant or other payee to initiate
an electronic funds transfer to collect a charge in the event a check or draft is
returned for insufficient funds.
Automated Teller Telephone Transfers -
types of transfers - You may access your account by telephone 24 hours a day
at 573-581-3582 or 1-866-575-3582 using your personal identification number, a touch
tone phone, and your account numbers, to:

your ATM card and personal identification number or VISA Debit Card and personal
identification number, to:

Some of these services may not be available
at all terminals.
Types of ATM Card Point-of-Sale
Transactions - You may access your share draft account(s) to purchase goods
(in person), pay for services (in person), and get cash from a merchant, if the
merchant permits, or from a participating financial institution.
Point-of-Sale Transactions - dollar
limitations - Using your card:
- you may not exceed the available
funds in the account
Types of VISA Debit Card
Point-of-Sale Transactions - You may access your share draft account(s) to purchase
goods (in person, online, or by phone), pay for services (in person, online, or
by phone), get cash from a merchant, if the merchant permits, or from a participating
financial institution, and do anything that a participating merchant will accept.
Point-of-Sale Transactions - dollar limitations
- Using your card:
- you may not exceed the available
funds in the account
Currency Conversion. When you
use your VISA Debit Card at a merchant that settles in currency other than US dollars,
the charge will be converted into the US dollar amount. The currency conversion
rate used to determine the transaction amount in US dollars is either a rate selected
by Visa from the range of rates available in wholesale currency markets for the
applicable central processing date, which rate may vary from the rate Visa itself
receives, or the government-mandated rate in effect for the applicable central processing
date, plus 1%. The conversion rate in effect on the processing date may differ from
the rate in effect on the transaction date or posting date.
Advisory Against Illegal Use. You agree
not to use your card(s) for illegal gambling or other illegal purpose. Display of
a payment card logo by, for example, an online merchant does not necessarily mean
that transactions are lawful in all jurisdictions in which the cardholder may be
located.

not complete a fund transfer).
DOCUMENTATION
- Terminal transfers. You can get a receipt at the time you make a transfer to or from your account
using an automated teller machine or point-of-sale terminal. However, you may not
get a receipt if the amount of the transfer is $15 or less.
- Preauthorized credits. If you

us for your share draft accounts.
You will get a monthly account statement

PREAUTHORIZED PAYMENTS
- Right to stop payment and procedure
for doing so. If you have told us in advance to make regular payments out of
your account, you can stop any of these payments. Here is how:
Call or write us at the telephone number or
address listed in this brochure in time for us to receive your request 3 business
days or more before the payment is scheduled to be made. If you call, we may also
require you to put your request in writing and get it to us within 14 days after
you call.
We will charge you $10.00 for each
stop-payment order you give.
- Notice of varying amounts. If
these regular payments may vary in amount, the person you are going to pay will
tell you, 10 days before each payment, when it will be made and how much it will
be. (You may choose instead to get this notice only when the payment would differ
by more than a certain amount from the previous payment, or when the amount would
fall outside certain limits that you set.)
- Liability for failure to
stop payment of preauthorized transfer. If you order us to stop one of these
payments 3 business days or more before the transfer is scheduled, and we do not
do so, we will be liable for your losses or damages.
FINANCIAL
INSTITUTION'S LIABILITY
Liability for failure to make transfers. If we do not complete a transfer to or from your account on time or in the correct
amount according to our agreement with you, we will be liable for your losses or
damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for instance:
- If, through no fault of ours, you do not
have enough money in your account to make the transfer.
- If you have an overdraft line and
the transfer would go over the credit limit.
- If the automated teller machine
where you are making the transfer does not have enough cash.
- If the terminal or system was not
working properly and you knew about the breakdown when you started the transfer.
- If circumstances beyond our control
(such as fire or flood) prevent the transfer, despite reasonable precautions that
we have taken.
- There may be other exceptions stated
in our agreement with you.
CONFIDENTIALITY
We will disclose information to third parties
about your account or the transfers you make:
- where it is necessary for completing transfers;
or
- in order to verify the existence
and condition of your account for a third party, such as a credit bureau or merchant;
or
- in order to comply with government
agency or court orders; or
- as explained in the separate Privacy
Disclosure.
UNAUTHORIZED TRANSFERS
(a) Consumer liability.
Generally. Tell us AT
ONCE if you believe your card and/or code has been lost or stolen, or if you believe
that an electronic fund transfer has been made without your permission using information
from your check or draft. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses
down. You could lose all the money in your account (plus your maximum overdraft
line of credit). If you tell us within 2 business days after you learn of the loss
or theft of your card and/or code, you can lose no more than $50 if someone used
your card and/or code without your permission.
If you do NOT tell us within 2 business
days after you learn of the loss or theft of your card and/or code, and we can prove
we could have stopped someone from using your card and/or code without your permission
if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.
Also, if your statement shows transfers
that you did not make, including those made by card, code or other means, tell us
at once. If you do not tell us within 60 days after the statement was mailed to
you, you may not get back any money you lost after the 60 days if we can prove that
we could have stopped someone from taking the money if you had told us in time.
If a good reason (such as a long trip
or a hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we will extend the time periods.
Additional Limit on Liability
for VISA Debit Card. Unless you have been grossly negligent or have engaged
in fraud, you will not be liable for any unauthorized transactions using your lost
or stolen VISA Debit Card. This additional limit on liability does not apply to
ATM transactions or to transactions using your Personal Identification Number which
are not processed by VISA®.
(b) Contact in event of unauthorized
transfer. If you believe your card and/or code has been lost or stolen, call
or write us at the telephone number or address listed in this brochure. You should
also call the number or write to the address listed in this brochure if you believe
a transfer has been made using the information from your check or draft without
your permission.
ERROR RESOLUTION NOTICE
In Case of Errors or Questions About Your
Electronic Transfers, Call or Write us at the telephone number or address listed
in this brochure, as soon as you can, if you think your statement or receipt is
wrong or if you need more information about a transfer listed on the statement or
receipt. We must hear from you no later than 60 days after we sent the FIRST statement
on which the problem or error appeared.
- Tell us your name and account number (if
any).
- Describe the error or the transfer
you are unsure about, and explain as clearly as you can why you believe it is an
error or why you need more information.
- Tell us the dollar amount of the
suspected error.
If you tell us orally, we may require that
you send us your complaint or question in writing within 10 business days.
We will determine whether an error
occurred within 10 business days (5 business days for VISA Debit Card point-of-sale
transactions and 20 business days if the transfer involved a new account) after
we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however,
we may take up to 45 days (90 days if the transfer involved a new account, a point-of-sale
transaction, or a foreign-initiated transfer) to investigate your complaint or question.
If we decide to do this, we will credit your account within 10 business days (5
business days for VISA Debit Card point-of-sale transactions and 20 business days
if the transfer involved a new account) for the amount
you think is in error, so that you will have the use of the money during the time
it takes us to complete our investigation. If we ask you to put your complaint or
question in writing and we do not receive it within 10 business days, we may not
credit your account. Your account is considered a new account for the first 30 days
after the first deposit is made, unless each of you already has an established account
with us before this account is opened.
We will tell you the results within three business
days after completing our investigation. If we decide that there was no error, we
will send you a written explanation.
You may ask for copies of the documents
that we used in our investigation.

YOUR ABILITY TO WITHDRAW FUNDS
This policy statement applies to "transaction"
accounts. Transaction accounts, in general, are accounts which permit an unlimited
number of payments to third persons and an unlimited number of telephone and preauthorized
transfers to other accounts of yours with us. Share draft accounts are the most
common transaction accounts. Feel free to ask us whether any of your other accounts
might also be under this policy.
Our policy is to make funds from your
cash and check deposits available to you on the first business day after the day
we receive your deposit. Electronic direct deposits will be available on the day
we receive the deposit. Once the funds are available, you can withdraw them in cash
and we will use the funds to pay checks that you have written and point-of-sale
transactions you have authorized.
Please remember that even after we
have made funds available to you, and you have withdrawn the funds, you are still
responsible for checks you deposit that are returned to us unpaid and for any other
problems involving your deposit.
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 closing 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 closing or on a day we are not open, we will consider that the deposit
was made on the next business day we are open.
If we cash a check for you that is
drawn on another bank, 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 if you had deposited
it.
If we accept for deposit a check that
is drawn on another bank, 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 that you deposited.
LONGER DELAYS MAY APPLY
Case-by-case delays. 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. Depending on the type of check
that you deposit, funds may not be available until the fifth business day after
the day of your deposit. The first $100 of your deposits, however, may 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 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.
Safeguard exceptions. 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
$5,000 on any one 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.
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 eleventh business
day after the day of your deposit.
DEPOSITS AT AUTOMATED TELLER MACHINES
Funds from any deposits (cash or checks) made
at automated teller machines (ATMs) we do not own or operate will not be available
until the next business day after the day your deposit is posted from the machines.
This rule does not apply at ATMs that we own or operate.
