Terms and Conditions of Your Deposit Account
Dear Member:
The following contains the rules, which govern, where appropriate, your deposit account with us. Please read this brochure carefully; continued use of your account with us after receipt of this brochure means you agree to these rules, you agree to pay the fees listed, and you give us the right to collect the fees, as earned, directly from the account balance. If you have any questions, please contact us. State and federal law regulate much of our relationship with our members.

Important information about procedures for opening a new account: To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. What this means for you: When you open an account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your driver's licenses or other identifying documents.

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

Liability: Each of you agrees, 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 that may be imposed. You authorize us to deduct these charges as accrued directly from the account balance. You also agree to pay additional reasonable charges we may impose for services you request which are not contemplated by this agreement. Direct deposit including government benefits may be used to cover overdrawn accounts. Each of you also agrees to be jointly and severally liable for any account deficit resulting from charges or overdrafts, whether caused by you or another authorized to withdraw from this account, and the costs we incur to collect the deficit including, to the extent permitted by law, our reasonable attorneys' fees.

Deposits: Any items, other than cash, accepted for deposit (including items drawn "on Us") will be given provisional credit only until collection is final (and 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 initiated by mail or outside depository until we actually record them. All transactions received on a business day we are not open for business, will be treated and recorded as if initiated on the next following business day that we are open. Your endorsement and the endorsement of any prior endorser must appear on the back of the check within the first 1.5 inches of the trailing edge of the check. The trailing edge of the check is the left side of the check when looking at it from the front. You agree to be responsible for any losses and any associated legal fees when these endorsement standards are not satisfied.

Withdrawals: Unless otherwise clearly indicated to the contrary, any one of you who signs in the space designated for signatures on the signature card, including authorized signers, may withdraw or transfer all or any part of the account balance at any time on forms approved by us. We are not responsible for losses from the unauthorized use of facsimile signatures. The fact we may honor withdrawal requests that overdraw the finally collected account balance does not obligate us to do so, unless required by law. Withdrawals will be first made from collected funds, and we may refuse any withdrawal request against uncollected funds, even if our general practice is to the contrary. We reserve the right to refuse any withdrawal or transfer request that is attempted by any method not specifically permitted, which is for an amount less than any minimum withdrawal requirement, or which exceeds any frequency limitation. Even if we honor a non-conforming request, repeated abuse of the stated limitations may eventually force us to close this account. We will use the date the transaction is completed by us to apply the frequency limitations.

Membership Requirements: If a member's Regular Savings balance ever falls below $5, DHCU Community Credit Union will transfer the deficiency balance from any other available savings balance or add the deficiency to any outstanding loan so that the Regular Savings balance is maintained at no less than the statutory minimum of $5. A member must maintain $5 in his/her Regular Savings in order to be a member in good standing. If this minimum is not maintained, you may lose the rights to receive the services of the credit union.

Ownership of Accounts & Beneficiary Designation

Individual Account: Only the individual member whose name appears on the membership agreement will have the right to withdraw funds from the account.

Joint Account: All joint owners have equal rights under this agreement. All parties may withdraw funds from the account at any time without the consent of the other party. When a joint account has been established, any one of the joint owners may make payments into the account, withdraw funds from the account or pledge funds as security for a loan. All joint accounts are Joint - With Right of Survivorship and not as Tenants In Common. Each owner of this account is jointly and severally liable for any transaction or item which would overdraw or adversely affect this account, including fees assessed.

Uniform Transfer to Minors Account (UTMA): This is a custodial account set up to receive a monetary gift made to a minor. Only the custodian may transact business. The minor may not withdraw from the account. The UTMA gift is irrevocable and neither the donor nor the custodian has the right to recover and/or make use of the funds other than for the benefit of the minor. For this purpose a minor is an individual under age 21.

Revocable Trust or Payable-On-Death Account: If two or more of you create such an account, you own the account jointly with survivorship. Beneficiaries acquire the right to withdraw only if: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 equally, without right of survivorship. The person(s) creating either of these account types reserves the right to: 1) change beneficiaries, 2) change account types, and 3) withdraw all or part of the deposit at any time.

Corporate, Partnership, and other Organizational Accounts: We will usually require a separate authorization form designating the person permitted and conditions required for withdrawals from any account in the name of a legal entity such as a partnership, corporation, or other organization. We will honor such authorization according to its terms until it is amended or terminated in writing by the governing body of such organization.

Amendments and Termination: From time to time we may amend any item of this agreement upon giving you reasonable notice in writing or by any other method permitted by law, including, in appropriate circumstances, posting notice in our building. We may also close this account at any time upon reasonable notice to you and tender the account balance personally or by mail. Notice from us to any one of you is notice to all of you.

Insurance: Member accounts are insured to $250,000 by the National Credit Union Administration, a U.S. Government agency. Individual Retirement Accounts(IRA) are insured to $250,000 by the National Credit Union Administration. Ask for further explanation on how accounts may be structured to obtain additional NCUA insurance coverage.

HomeBranch BillPay Service: Note: All references within this document to the terms "Payment Service" and/or "the Service" reflect HomeBranch BillPay Service offered by DHCU Community Credit Union.

Electronic Disclosure of the Terms and Conditions Agreement for the HomeBranch BillPay Service

I acknowledge electronic receipt of the Terms and Conditions Agreement ("Agreement") associated with DHCU Community Credit Union's (DHCU) HomeBranch BillPay Service and agree that I have read and will abide by this Agreement. I also agree that DHCU does not need to provide me with an additional, paper (non-electronic) copy of this Agreement unless specifically requested. Further, I understand that a copy of this Agreement can be printed by using my browser's print command and a printer.

Use of a Third-Party Bill Pay Service Provider
ORCC (Service) is the third-party bill pay service provider who DHCU has contracted with to provide bill pay service to its members. ORCC will be processing bill payments and answering questions directly related to these member-initiated bill payments. Accordingly, the term "ORCC Customer Care" represents the customer service provided by ORCC to DHCU's bill pay subscribers on DHCU's behalf. DHCU, at its sole discretion, reserves the right to change HomeBranch BillPay service providers.

Enrollment Request for the HomeBranch BillPay Service
DHCU reserves the right to refuse enrollment in the HomeBranch BillPay service to any member who does not meet the HomeBranch BillPay service criteria which has been established by the credit union and/or ORCC. Included in this criteria is a requirement that subscribers to this service must live within the United States or its possessions/territories (i.e., American Samoa, Guam, Marshall Islands, Micronesia, N. Mariana Islands, Palau, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands) or be receiving mail at an FPO or APO address (APO - Abroad, APO - America or APO - Pacific).

HomeBranch BillPay Service
As used in this Agreement, the term "Payee" means the vendor, biller, person or entity to whom you wish a bill payment to be directed; "Payment Instructions" means the information provided by you to the Service for a bill payment to be made to your Payee (e.g., Payee name, account number, payment amount, payment date, etc.); "Payment Account" means your Checking Account and, in the instance of non-sufficient funds and/or an overdrawn account, any applicable share account or available balance on line of credit accounts (e.g., credit card accounts) at DHCU, from which all bill payments may be made and/or such funds collected; "Business Day" means Monday through Friday, excluding Federal holidays; "Scheduled Payment Date" means the Business Day of your choice upon which your bill payment will be made and your Payment Account will be debited; and "Cutoff Time" means 11:00 a.m., Central Time on any Business Day, and is the time by which you must transmit instructions to have them considered entered on that particular Business Day.

By providing the Payment Service with the names and account information of those entities and/or persons to whom you wish to direct payment, you authorize the Service to follow the Payment Instructions that it receives from you or your authorized user through the HomeBranch BillPay service. When the Service receives a payment instruction, you authorize it to debit your Payment Account and remit funds on your behalf so that the funds arrive as close to the Business Day designated by you as reasonably possible.

While it is anticipated that most transactions will be processed four (4) Business Days before your selected Scheduled Payment Date, it is understood that due to circumstances beyond the control of the Service, particularly delays in handling and posting payments by slow responding companies or financial institutions (Payees), some transactions may take a day or even a few days longer to be credited by your Payee to your account with them.

For this reason, it is necessary that all Scheduled Payment Dates selected by you be no less than five Business Days before the actual due date, not the late date and/or a date in the grace period. (For example, the payment should be entered no later than Monday before 11:00 a.m., Central Time, for a payment to arrive on Friday.) Payment Instructions entered after the Cutoff Time or on a non-Business Day will be considered entered in the Service on the next Business Day. If you properly follow the procedures described herein, and the Service fails to send a payment according to the Payment Instructions received, the Service will bear responsibility for all late charges. In any other event, including but not limited to choosing a Scheduled Payment Date which is not five Business Days before the due date or on or past the due date stated on your invoice or bill, the risk of incurring and the responsibility for paying any and all late charges or penalties shall be borne by you.

A bill payment is "In Process," starting at the Cutoff Time on the fourth (4th) Business Day prior to the Scheduled Payment Date and continuing up to the Scheduled Payment Date. A bill payment is a "Pending Payment," starting from the time you enter Payment Instructions until the payment is "In Process." A bill payment is considered "Completed" on the Business Day you selected as the Scheduled Payment Date. You may cancel or edit any Pending Payment (including recurring bill pay payments) by following the directions provided on the HomeBranch BillPay system Online Help. There is no charge for canceling or editing a Pending Payment.

Please note: we may not have a reasonable opportunity to act on any stop payment or cancellation order given after a payment is "In Process" and it is not possible to stop or cancel a payment which is "Completed." If you desire to cancel or stop any payment which is "In Process" you must call ORCC Customer Care toll free at 1-800-235-825. Although we will make every effort to accommodate your request, we will have no liability for failing to do so. Stop payment requests sent to us via electronic mail or in any other manner will not reach us in time for us to act on your request. Stop payment requests will be accepted only if we have a reasonable opportunity to act on such a stop payment order. If you call, we may also require you to present your request in writing within fourteen (14) days after you call. The charge for each stop payment order will be the then current charge for such service as disclosed in DHCU's Schedule of Fees and Charges. The Service will use its best efforts to make all your payments properly. However, the Service shall incur no liability if it is unable to complete any payments initiated by you through the Service because of the existence of any one or more of the following circumstances:

1. If, through no fault of ours, your Checking Account does not contain sufficient funds to complete the payment or transfer, if applicable DHCU may, at its option, pay a scheduled bill payment which exceeds the share balance in the Checking Account by transferring the amount of the resulting overdraft from the share savings account, VISA Safedraft Overdraft Protection, or Courtesy Pay Overdraft Protection indicated on the Checking Application and Agreement. Per Federal regulation, preauthorized telephone, Internet or automatic transfers from Money Markets to cover Checking overdrafts cannot exceed six in number per calendar month;
2. The bill payment processing center is not working properly and you know or have been advised by the Service about the malfunction before you execute the transaction;
3. The Payee mishandles or delays a payment sent by the Service;
4. You have not provided the Service with the correct names, phone numbers, or account information for those persons or entities to whom you wish to direct payment;
5. Circumstances beyond the Service's control (such as, but not limited to, fire, flood, or interference from an outside force) prevent the proper execution of the transaction and the Service has taken reasonable precautions to avoid those circumstances.

Provided none of the foregoing five (5) exceptions to the Service performance obligations are applicable, if the Service causes an incorrect amount of funds to be removed from your Payment Account or causes funds from your Payment Account to be directed to a person or entity which does not comply with your Payment Instructions, the Service shall be responsible for returning the improperly transferred funds to your Payment Account and for directing to the proper recipient any previously misdirected payments or transfers.

Payment will be made to your Payee either electronically via the Automated Clearing House (ACH) or by check or laser draft. The method of payment depends upon the processing method that can be accommodated by the Payee or ORCC (e.g., some Payees are unable to accept electronic payments).

The payment may be deducted from your Payment Account by two methods depending upon the amount of the payment and your credit history. The two methods are: 1.) via an electronic debit through the Automated Clearing House Association (ACH) or 2.) via a draft drawn on your account and processed through the Federal Reserve System (as if you had written a Checking drawn on your Checking Account.) All bill payments debited from your account will appear on your monthly Statement of Account and under the "All Transaction Activity" section of the Checking Account Detail on the DHCU HomeBranch Online Account Access system. ACH debits will reflect the name of the Payee (e.g., XYZ Utility Company) as well as the date and amount; however, laser drafts will be reflected on your statement with simply a date and check number. All payments can be viewed with the Payee's name, payment amount and payment date by reviewing your recent payment history under the electronic Payment List option provided to you as part of the HomeBranch BillPay service.

Prohibited Payments
The following payment types are prohibited through the Service:
1. Tax Payments
2. Court Ordered Payments
3. Payments to Payees outside of the United States or its possessions/territories as detailed in the Payee Limitations section of this Agreement.

If your monthly statement or your online account detail reflect any transfers or payments that you did not make, tell us at once. If you do not tell us within sixty (60) days after the first statement which reflected an unauthorized transfer(s) or payment(s) was mailed to you, you may not get back any money you lost after the 60 days, provided that we can prove that we could have stopped someone from taking the money if you had told us in time.

Once they are available, you can withdraw the funds in cash and we will use the funds to pay checks you have written.

For determining the availability of your deposits, every day is a business day except Saturdays, Sundays and Federal Holidays. If you make a deposit before 5:00pm 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 5:00pm or on a day we are not open, we will consider that the deposit was made on the next business day we are open.

Longer Delays May Apply:  In some cases, we will not make all of the funds that you deposit by check available to you on the day of your deposit.

However, the first $100 of your deposits will be available on the first business day after we receive your deposit.

Funds from deposits of cash, wire transfers and the first $5,000 of cashier's checks, certified, teller's, traveler's, and federal, state and local government checks will be available on the first business day after the day of your deposit if the deposit meets certain conditions. For example, the checks must be payable to you. The excess over $5,000 will be available on the ninth business day after the day of your deposit.

Truth In Savings Disclosure
We offer these deposit accounts for members. We reserve the right to require business transactions to be conducted through a commercial transaction account. Please refer to Appendix A for a complete listing of all fees charged by DHCU Community Credit Union. To obtain current rate and annual percentage yield please call 309-796-7500 or 1-800-323-5109.

Regular Savings Account

Rate Information  The dividend rate and annual percentage yield are disclosed on the separate insert or on the last column of this brochure. This is a variable rate account. The rate and the annual percentage yield may change at any time as determined by the Board of Directors. This is a Tiered-Rate Account. An average daily balance of $10,000 or more will earn the higher dividend rate and annual percentage yield disclosed. An average daily balance of $100, but less than $10,000, will earn the lesser dividend rate and annual percentage yield disclosed. Average daily balances of less that $100 will not earn dividend.

Balance Computation Method:  We use the average daily balance method to calculate dividends on your account. This method applies a periodic rate to the average daily balance in the account for the dividend period. The average daily balance is calculated by adding the balance in the account for each day of the dividend period and dividing that figure by the number of days in the dividend period. You must maintain a minimum average daily balance of $100 in your account to obtain the disclosed annual percentage yield.

Compounding and Crediting:  Dividends will be compounded monthly and credited monthly. If, however, the account is closed on or before the last day of the month, any dividends accrued will be forfeited. For this account, the dividend period is monthly. For example, the beginning date of the first dividend period for the calendar year is January 1st and the ending date of such dividend period is January 31st. All other dividend periods follow the same pattern of dates. The dividend declaration date follows the ending date of a dividend period which for the example, is January 31st.

Balance Information:  The minimum balance to open the regular savings account is $5 and is payable upon application for membership or in payroll deduction installments of at least $5 per week. We use the average daily balance method to calculate dividends on your account. This method applies a periodic rate to the average daily balance in the account for the dividend period. The average daily balance is calculated by adding the balance in the account for each day of the dividend period and dividing that figure by the number of days in the dividend period. This is a Tiered-Rate Account. An average daily balance of $10,000 or more will earn the highest dividend rate and annual percentage yield disclosed. An average daily balance of $100, but less than $10,000, will earn the lessor dividend rate and annual percentage yield disclosed. Average daily balance of less than $100 will not earn dividend. Dividends will begin to accrue on the business day you deposit noncash items (e.g.checks) to your account.

A member who fails to complete the minimum balance of $5 within 2 months of his/her application for membership may be terminated from membership. Or a member who reduces his savings balance (after 2 month grace period) below the minimum savings requirement and does not increase the balance to at least the minimum savings requirement within 30 days, may be imposed a monthly fee and/or his membership may be terminated. See Appendix A for a complete fee schedule.

Advance Notice of Withdrawal:  This account is subject to the Credit Union's right to require a 7 day advance notice of withdrawal as provided in its bylaws.

Fees:   A monthly account maintenance fee may be assessed if there has been no activity to any of your accounts for 12 months and the total balance in all accounts is below $100 and the account owner is 24 years of age and older. A fee for a non-sufficient funds transfer is assessed for transfers from another share and/or Visa. If you are approved based on your deposit and credit report, you may obtain an Automated Teller Machine (ATM)/DHCU CheckCard. With an ATM/DHCU CheckCard, you can make cash withdrawals from ATMs (DHCU or network owned) up to the daily limit of $500 (members with DHCU checking accounts) or $300 (members without DHCU checking accounts.

Automatic Transfer:  The Credit Union will automatically transfer funds from the member's savings accounts.

Courtesy Pay Overdraft Protection: An additional overdraft protection program available to all Checking Account members. There is a 60 day waiting period before Courtesy Pay is available on all new and re-opened checking accounts. You’ll enjoy an added layer of protection that may save you money. With Courtesy Pay you’ll eliminate the worry of returned checks when you overdraw your checking account. Courtesy Pay automatically covers checks and electronic payments that overdraw your checking account. Each time Courtesy pay is activated to cover a check or other item, the items are paid instead of returned and your account goes negative. The merchant never knows that you were overdrawn savings you embarrassment and additional fees that may be assessed by the merchant when a check is returned.

An insufficient balance could result in several ways, such as (a) the payment of checks, electronic funds transfer, ATM withdrawal, point-of-sale, or other withdrawal requests: (b) payments authorized by you; (c) the return of unpaid items deposited by you; (d) the imposition of credit union service charges; or (e) the deposit of items which, according to the credit union's Funds Availability Policy, are treated as not yet available or finally paid. We are not obligated to pay any item presented for payment if your account does not contain sufficient funds. However, if you maintain your account in good standing, defined as making regular deposits to bring your account to positive balance at least once every 30 days, and there are not legal orders outstanding, we may approve your reasonable overdrafts as a non-contractual courtesy. Normally we will not approve an overdraft for you in excess of your limit plus our overdraft charge. We may refuse to pay an overdraft for you at any time, although we may have previously paid overdrafts for you. You will be notified by mail of any non-sufficient funds items paid or returned that you may have; however, we have no obligation to notify you before we pay or return any item. The amount of any overdraft plus our Insufficient Funds handling fee charge(s) and any daily overdraft fee(s) that you owe us shall be due and payable upon demand. If there is an overdraft paid by us on an account with more than one (1) member on the signature card, each member, and agent if applicable, drawing/presenting the item creating the overdraft, shall be jointly and severally liable for such overdraft, plus our Insufficient Funds handling fee charge(s). A fee may be imposed for covering overdrafts "created by check, in-person withdrawals, ATM withdrawals, or other electronic means," as applicable. See Appendix A for a complete listing of fees charged by DHCU Community Credit Union. More than one overdraft fee may be charged against the account per day, depending on the number of checks presented and other withdrawals made from, the members account. See Appendix A for a complete listing of fees charged by DHCU Community Credit Union Transactions may not process in the order in which they occurred. Checks clear your account largest dollar amount to smallest dollar amount.

Balance Information:  The minimum balance to open this certificate account is $1,000. Youth accounts, 0 to 23 years of age, may open a new certificate with a minimum balance of $250. Dividends are calculated on the daily balance method which applies a daily periodic rate to the balance in the account at the end of each day. Dividends begin to accrue on the business day you deposit any non-cash items (e.g., checks). The Board of Directors determines rates for certificate accounts.

Withdrawals of Dividends:  The annual percentage yield assumes that dividends remain in the account until maturity. A withdrawal will reduce earnings.

Early Withdrawal Penalty:  If this certificate account is withdrawn prior to maturity, you will be charged a penalty of up to 90 days accrued dividend on the entire amount in the account. No penalty will be imposed if the withdrawal is due to death of the member or if the member is judged legally incompetent.

Renewal Policy and Grace Period:  This account will automatically renew at maturity for the same term at the dividend rate in effect on the maturity date. A seven day grace period follows the maturity of this account if all the funds are re-invested in a certificate. If all funds are not re-invested within seven business days, no interest will be paid on the matured funds.

DHCU Community Credit Union is a not-for-profit member owned, cooperative. Your credit union is managed by a full-time professional staff for the exclusive benefit of its members. There are no outside stockholders. Instead, a volunteer Board of Directors is elected each year by the membership. After paying operating expenses and reserves, all remaining income is returned to the members in the form of higher dividends on savings, lower rates on loans, reduced fees and enhanced services. As a member, each time you look to DHCU Community Credit Union for financial services, you're helping yourself by making an investment back into the institution you own.

As a cooperative, our philosophy is that each member receives his or her fair share. Fees are paid by the member as he or she uses a service. We strive to keep all costs and fees at a minimum, without sacrificing service or quality. We regularly monitor other area financial institutions making certain we are near the lowest. Unfortunately, fees are a reality. We believe our fee philosophy is the most equitable for all members.
