TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF YOUR DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS
Lake City Bank offers deposit accounts subject to the
terms and conditions set forth in this agreement. The depositor agrees to all
the terms and conditions of this agreement by opening or using a deposit
account. In this agreement "you" or "your" means each
person who has opened a deposit account with Lake City Bank or is an authorized
user of an account with Lake City Bank. "We" and "us" and
"our" mean Lake City Bank, also referred to as the Bank. This
agreement will be binding on Lake City Bank only in the event you open a
deposit account. The first section of this document sets out specific terms and
conditions that apply to all Lake City Bank deposit accounts. The remaining
disclosure sections identify terms and conditions for each account you have
opened. All accounts may not be available at all Lake City Bank locations.
Governing Laws
Depository accounts are governed by the laws of the State
of Indiana,
except where Federal laws and regulations apply. Accounts are subject to all
applicable rules and customs of any clearing house or other association
involved in account transactions. Changes in these laws and regulations may
modify the terms and conditions of your account. While we are not required to
notify you of these changes, we will try to give you adequate notice of such
changes prior to their effective date.

General Terms and Conditions
Deposits
Because checks and
other non-cash items deposited must be presented for payment to the bank on
which they are drawn, we cannot give immediate credit for these items. All
non-cash items deposited, including checks drawn on Lake City Bank will be
given provisional credit until the item is finally collected. To determine that
an item has been collected, we have the right to wait what we believe is a
reasonable time after the item has been deposited before you may withdraw the
funds. Therefore, we may at anytime refuse to permit withdrawals from an
account balance which is provisional, even though our general practice may be
to the contrary. If an item deposited to an account is not paid according to
its terms, the provisional credit to the account will be reversed. Further
collection of the item is your responsibility. We may debit your account at
anytime and notwithstanding the running of the drawee bank’s midnight deadline.
Your account will be charged for any check or other
deposited item that is returned or is not collectable for any reason. You will
not receive notice before a charge is made. You will be notified after your
account has been charged.
We may require all items presented for deposit,
including items payable to bearer or to cash, to be endorsed in our presence by
the person depositing them. We may, at our sole discretion, supply any missing
endorsements on items submitted for deposit.
We reserve the right for any reason to refuse a deposit
or to return all or any part thereof.
If you receive direct deposits for social security or
similar benefits from any organization or the government, we reserve the right
to reverse deposits made after the death of the beneficiary and return the
funds to the sending organization.
The depositor will provide all of the warranties and
indemnities of the reconverting bank, as described in Regulation CC, Subpart D,
for all substitute checks deposited without a written agreement with Lake City
Bank to do so. Exceptions would be made
for the deposit of returned substitute checks.
Lake City Bank is
not liable for deposits made in an outside depository (i.e., night drop box)
until the deposit is actually received and available for processing by a Bank
representative.
Night Deposits
Lake City Bank is not liable for deposits made in an outside depository (i.e., night drop box) until the deposit is actually received and available for processing by a Bank representative.
Mailed Deposits
Lake City Bank is
not responsible for deposits mailed to the Bank or one of its locations until
actually received and available for processing. Mailed deposits will be
processed on the business day received.
Automated Teller Machine (ATM) Deposits
Lake City Bank is not liable for deposits made at ATMs
until the deposit is actually received and available for processing by a Bank representative.
Deposits made at an off-site Automated Teller Machine (i.e. one that is more
than 50 feet from the Bank's premises) are considered received on the day they
are removed from the ATM.
For determining the availability of your deposit made
at an on-site ATM (one less than 50 feet from a Lake City Bank location), every
day is a business day except Saturday, Sunday and federal holidays. The current
business day ends at 12:00 noon
or later as posted at each Automated Teller Machine location. However, if a
deposit is made after the posted business day ends, or on a day when the Bank
is not open, that deposit will be considered to be made on the next business
day.
Withdrawals
You must keep sufficient collected funds in your
account to pay the withdrawals you authorize. We may refuse to honor any check
or withdrawal request if there are insufficient collected funds in the account
any time throughout the banking day and assess a charge against your account.
Should we honor a check or withdrawal against insufficient collected funds, the
resulting account deficit will be immediately due, and a charge will be
assessed against your account. This charge is found in the current Personal Accounts and Services.
We reserve the right to refuse payment of any item that
cannot be microfilmed or imaged.
We reserve the right to require that you make your
withdrawals at the Bank location where you opened the account and/or your
account is maintained. Unless we decide to enforce that right, you may make
withdrawals at any location during regular business hours by presenting proper
identification and signing a withdrawal slip.
For electronic withdrawals, refer to Regulation E –
Electronic Banking Network Disclosures in this Agreement.
Notice of Withdrawal
A non-interest bearing checking account is subject to
withdrawal on demand by the presentment of a check drawn on the account. For
all interest-bearing accounts, Lake City Bank reserves the right to require a
minimum of seven (7) days notice before withdrawal, as required by Federal Law.
Any payment made by the Bank without requiring notice as herein provided shall
not be deemed a waiver of the right to require such notice as to any future
payment. No notice of withdrawal shall be deemed sufficiently given hereunder until
it is received by the Bank.
Forms
We reserve the right to only honor checks and requests
for withdrawal drawn on forms approved by Lake City Bank and that conform to
our printing specifications, including encoding of the account number and
consecutive check numbering in machine readable format. Any other checks or
forms used that are not authorized by Lake City Bank, may be subject to an
additional Administrative Charge, which can be found in the current Personal Accounts and Services.
We may at our option, pay any item whether or not the
item is properly encoded. You agree we shall have no responsibility to stop
payment on any check or other item not conforming to our printing and encoding
specifications.
You must notify Lake City Bank as soon as possible of
the loss or theft of any forms designed for your account.
Indemnification
You agree to
indemnify Lake City Bank against and hold harmless from any liability or loss,
including court costs, reasonable attorney costs and other expenses, the Bank
may incur resulting from a delay in the forward collection or return of any
item deposited into or issued from your account, caused by improper placement
of endorsement(s) or other materials on the back of the deposited or issued
item that affects the Bank’s ability to endorse the item as required by federal
regulations.
In the event the Bank becomes party to any legal
proceedings between you and any third party, or between you and any joint
owner, it is agreed that all of the joint owners will reimburse all liability,
costs, charges, fees and expenses, including attorney and court costs, incurred
by the Bank as a result of such proceedings.
Set-off
You agree that all bank accounts in your name,
individually or jointly with another person(s), may at the Bank's option be
applied all or in part toward the payment of any obligation owing Lake City
Bank by any one or more owners of your account. We may do so without prior
notice. An obligation includes any debt owing the Bank including fees, charges,
or other debts due us whether due or not incurred as a maker, endorser,
guarantor, or otherwise, and any obligation which now exists or is hereafter
acquired. Without limitation, this right of set-off applies to any check or
item cashed by the Bank or deposited in an account to which an owner of this
account is party as a maker, payee, endorser, or guarantor which is not honored
according to its terms.
Negative Information
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.
Post-dated/Stale-dated Checks
Lake City Bank will not be responsible for, and you
hereby agree to waive, any losses or costs you incur as a result of the payment
by this Bank of any check more than six (6) months old or the payment of any
check before the date written on the face of it by you.
The Bank may charge against your account a check that
is otherwise properly payable before the date written on the face of the check,
unless you give notice to us of the postdating and identify the account number,
check number, amount and date on the check. Your notice of post-dating must be
received prior to the processing of the check in the normal course of business
and with sufficient time to enable the Bank to act on your request. A notice of
postdating will be assessed a charge identical to the stop payment order fee.
These charges are found in the current Personal Accounts and Services brochure. When proper and timely notice is
provided, the Bank will handle the post-dated check in the same manner as a
stop payment order.
Check Legends
Lake City Bank
will not be responsible for, and you hereby agree to waive, any losses or costs
you incur as a result of the payment by the Bank of any check which contains
any extraneous legends, for example "void after 90 days." In order to
avoid payment of these items, a stop payment must be ordered.
Stop Payment Orders
You may ask the
Bank to stop payment on any check written on your account. Stop payments are
subject to rules contained in the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted by the
State of Indiana
and any other applicable laws. The Bank must receive the stop payment order at
such a time and manner as to give the Bank a reasonable opportunity to act on
it before the Bankis required by the
UCC and clearinghouse rules to honor an item. An oral stop payment order is
only valid for fourteen (14) calendar days unless it is confirmed in writing
within that time period. A written stop payment order is valid for six (6)
months unless it is renewed in writing. The charges assessed for the stop
payment order are found in the current Personal Accounts and Services brochure.
Stop payment orders are not allowed to be placed on
electronic Point-of-Sale (POS)
transactions or Visa®> Debit Card transactions. Refer to Regulation E
– Electronic Banking Network Disclosures in this Agreement for information on
your right to stop payment on ACH transactions.
Statements
Lake City Bank will provide a periodic statement
showing your account activity (deposits, withdrawals, interest, charges, etc.)
during the statement cycle. You agree to review your statements promptly to
determine if there are any irregularities, alterations, or unauthorized
transactions. You must notify the Bank within thirty (30) days of your receipt
of the statement, unless another time period is required by state or federal
law. Your checking account statement will not include paid or canceled checks.
Check images are available upon request. Charges for this service are found in
the current Personal Accounts and Services brochure. The Bank will maintain images of your checks for a period
of five (5) years. You may obtain copies by contacting the Bank. In order to
receive the best images of the checks you write, we recommend that you use
black ink when completing your checks and that you purchase check stock that is
image-friendly.
Power of Attorney
The Bank must approve the form and manner of
appointment if you choose to name another person to act as your
attorney-in-fact in connection with your account. Once recorded on the records
of the Bank the appointment stands until rescinded by you and the Bank has
received notification of the revocation and has had reasonable opportunity to
act on it.
Death of Individual Depositor
In the case of the death of an individual depositor,
the amount of deposit for the deceased will be paid to his or her legal
representatives who are authorized by law to receive the deposit; except in such
cases as by express trust or joint account agreement, the amount on deposit
shall be directed to be otherwise paid.
Joint Accounts
If your
account is in the name of two or more individuals as joint owners, and the title of the
account has the word "or" between the names of the owners, any or all
of the owners may make deposits or withdrawals. You agree that the Bank may
follow the orders or instructions of one of the owners without becoming liable
to the others.
If you have requested another form of ownership which
requires that all joint owners sign withdrawals or other payment orders, your
account title must have the word “and” between the names of the owners.
If no distinction, “or” is assumed.
If one joint owner dies, it is a condition and express
term of this agreement with respect to all deposits made and received in the
name of two or more persons jointly that without regard to the ownership or
source of all or part of the funds deposited, the total amount on deposit upon
the death of one owner, his or her interest in the account passes automatically
to the surviving joint owner(s), and that all deposits so made and received
shall be made and received in trust to be so paid, but subject to the
withdrawals as made by any person so designated during his life. The Bank will
pay out sums deposited to an account in the name of two or more persons in
accordance with the instructions set forth in the deposit agreement. If you do
not want the interest in your account to pass automatically to the surviving joint
owners, you must request in writing that the account be titled "without
survivorship." The deceased person's pro rata interest in said account
will pass to the estate of the deceased.
Payable on Death (P.O.D.) Accounts
You may open an
account titled to be payable on death to a beneficiary. Under Indiana Law, your
interest in the account will pass to the beneficiary when you die. As a general
rule, the beneficiary must be an individual. However, the Bank may allow a
charitable organization or other institution to be a beneficiary, at its
discretion.
Transfer to Minors Under the Uniform Transfers to
Minors Act
You may make an irrevocable gift of money to a minor by
opening an account in the manner prescribed in the Indiana Uniform Transfer to
Minors Act. The account must be opened in the name of a custodian. As a general
rule, the custodian must be an adult individual. There may be only one
custodian and one minor individual for each account.
Representatives
If the depositors are acting in a representative capacity,
they shall provide the Bank with whatever proof the Bank requires in order to
verify said representative capacity.
Assignment and Transfer
All accounts are not negotiable or transferable. You
may not transfer or assign your interest in an account or use it as collateral
for a loan except to the Bank. Changes in ownership reflected on the Bank's
records and transfers arising from operation of law, such as death, divorce or
incompetency are permitted.
Closing Accounts
Your account may be closed by either you or the Bank at
any time. If you close your account it will be deemed closed when the Bank
receives notice of your intent and has had reasonable time to act on the
request. If the Bank closes the account, your account will be closed as of the
date the notice of cancellation was mailed by the Bank. After your account is
closed, the Bank will not have any obligation to accept deposits or pay any
outstanding checks. Any money in the account will be returned to you by regular
mail, after we deduct any fees or charges. When your account is closed you must
return your Visa® Debit Card or 24 Hour Teller (ATM) Card and return
or destroy all unused checks.
Accounts closed within 180 days of opening may incur an
early closing fee and forfeit any other benefits related to the account. Refer
to the current Personal Accounts and Services brochure for this information.
FDIC Insurance
Your deposit accounts are insured along with other
accounts in the same ownership, up to at least $100,000 by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation. Certain retirement accounts are insured up to $250,000
per owner, per insured bank.
Administrative Charges/Fees
Applicable administrative charges and maintenance fees
are found in the current Personal Accounts and Services brochure. This includes, but is not limited
to, transaction limitations and fees, automated teller machine fees, and
monthly maintenance fees where applicable. Your account may also be charged for
other services you request. When examining balances for the purpose of determining
fees assessed, the Bank uses the collected daily balance, unless otherwise
noted.
Balance Required to Maintain the Account
You agree to keep a positive balance in the account in
order for the account to remain open. Balances of zero or less, for thirty (30)
days or more may result in the account being closed.

REGULATION DD
Truth in Savings Disclosure
The purpose of this regulation is to help you make
informed decisions about deposit accounts based on the terms and conditions
under which interest is paid and fees are charged. Lake City Bank makes the
following product disclosures along with the current Personal Accounts and Services brochure available for your review and comparison to financial
products offered by other Financial Service providers.
Investment Accounts
The terms and conditions of this section apply to
Investor's Money Market, Savings, and Young Savers accounts in addition to the
previously mentioned General Terms and Conditions that apply to all Lake City
Bank deposit accounts.
Interest
We use the daily balance method to compute interest on
your account. This method applies a daily periodic rate to the collected
balance in the account each day. To determine the daily periodic rate, we
divide the interest rate by the actual number of days in the year (365 days per
year, 366 days in leap year). Interest begins to accrue no later than the
business day when we receive credit for the deposit of non-cash items (for
example, checks).
Interest is compounded based upon the account type and
will be credited to your account as described in the specific account type
chosen, unless we agree to pay the interest in another manner. In order to
obtain the interest rate and annual percentage yield shown on the Annual Yield
Disclosure of this Agreement, you must maintain the minimum balance associated
with that account type or with an interest rate tier. The interest rate and
Annual Percentage Yield (APY) paid on each of these accounts is variable and
will be determined by the current market rates and alternate funding rates. The
Bank reserves the right to change the interest rate and APY at any time and
without notice.
Interest bearing accounts will be paid interest at a
rate determined by the Bank. We reserve the right to select the method of
determining the balances upon which interest will be paid, the time the funds
must be on deposit to be entitled to interest, the method of computing
interest, and the dates interest will be paid. The initial rate(s) of interest
are shown on the Annual Yield Disclosure of this Agreement when you open an
interest bearing account. Subsequent interest rates may be obtained by
contacting the One-Call
Center toll free at
888-522-2265 or by e-mail at lcbdirect@lakecitybank.com.

include your account number if contacting us via e-mail since e-mail is not a

If consent is given to withdraw all or part of your

There is a ten (10)
calendar day grace period after the maturity date during which time the depositor
may withdraw the deposit without receiving an early withdrawal penalty.
However, no interest will be earned for the time period between the maturity
date and redemption.
Certificates of deposit of $100,000 and more will not
automatically renew and will cease to earn interest on the maturity date.The depositor is responsible for redeeming
the certificate and negotiating the new term and rate.
The depositor will be provided with a notice of upcoming
maturity 30 days prior to the maturity date for all certificate of deposit
terms greater than 32 days.
Interest
We use the daily
balance method to compute interest on your account. This method applies a daily
periodic rate to the principal in the account each day. To determine the daily
periodic rate, we divide the interest rate by the actual number of days in the
year (365 days per year, 366 days in leap year). Interest will begin to accrue
on the date of deposit. The APY disclosed on the Annual Yield Disclosure of
this Agreement for your certificate of deposit assumes the interest remains on

This is a fixed rate certificate of deposit. The terms
and conditions cited under the Certificates of Deposit section of these
disclosures apply in addition to the disclosures cited below and those provided
by the Custodial IRA Agreement. Disclosures given to you at the time of the
account opening will supercede any disclosures given under the Certificates of
Deposit disclosures listed in these terms and conditions should there be a
conflict of information.

There is a ten
(10) calendar day grace period after the maturity date during which time the
depositor may withdraw the deposit without receiving an early withdrawal
penalty. However, no interest will be earned for the time period between the
maturity date and redemption.
Certificates with an initial deposit of $100,000 or
more will not automatically renew and will cease to earn interest on the
maturity date.
Interest
We use the daily balance method to compute interest on
your account. This method applies a daily periodic rate to the principal in the
account each day. To determine the daily periodic rate, we divide the interest
rate by the actual number of days of the year (365 days per year, 366 days in
leap year). Interest will begin to accrue on the date of deposit. The APY
disclosed on the Annual Yield Disclosure of this Agreement for your certificate
of deposit assumes the interest remains on deposit until maturity. Withdrawal
of interest prior to maturity will reduce earnings. The interest rate and
Annual Percentage Yield (APY) paid on this deposit will be determined by the
Bank at its discretion at the time the certificate of deposit is opened. The
interest rate and APY will remain fixed until the certificate of deposit matures.
Interest Payment Options
Interest will be added to the account annually and at
maturity. Federal law prohibits payment of interest directly to the depositor
unless IRA distributions have begun. The depositor may have some options
available regarding how the interest is to be paid once IRA distributions have
begun. Interest can be paid to the depositor monthly, quarterly, or
semi-annually (if the certificate of deposit has a balance of $6,000 or more
and the term is equal to or greater than 6 months), annually or at maturity
depending on the chosen term by deposit into an account. The interest may be
added to the certificate of deposit annually or at maturity depending on the
chosen term. A check may be mailed or electronically transfered to the
depositor only by special arrangement and consent of the Bank which may be
given only at the time such request is made. The interest payment method for
certificates of deposit with terms equal to or greater than 6 months can be
changed during the term of the certificate of deposit with the consent of the
Bank which can be given only at the time such a request is made.

Early withdrawal disclosures applicable to Certificates
of Deposit apply to Fixed Rate IRA Certificates of Deposit even when the owner
is over age 59½.

there be a conflict of information.

Internal Money Management Account
A portion of your checking account’s balance may at
times be reclassified under the Federal Reserve Board’s Regulation D. This accounting
procedure will not affect your account in any way.
An internal money management account consists of two
sub-accounts: a checking account and a savings account. All checks, debits, and
withdrawals are presented against the checking account for payment.
If the balance in the checking account exceeds a
threshold balance, and six (6) transfers from the savings account have not
occurred during the monthly statement cycle, the amount in excess of the
threshold balance in the checking account shall be transferred to the savings account
on a daily basis.
If the aggregate of checks, debits, and withdrawals,
presented against the checking account exceeds the available balance, a
transfer from the savings account to the checking account shall be made if the
funds are available in the savings account. The transfer from the savings account
shall be made to pay all checks, debits, and withdrawals presented that
business day to replenish the checking account to the threshold balance.
Transfers from the savings account are limited to six (6) transfers during a
monthly statement cycle. Upon the sixth transfer from the savings account to
the checking account during a monthly statement cycle, the entire balance in
the savings account shall be transferred to the checking account for the
remainder of the monthly statement cycle.
Interest
We use the daily balance method to compute interest on
your account. This method applies a daily periodic rate to the collected
balance in the account each day. To determine the daily periodic rate, we
divide the interest rate by the actual number of days in the year (365 days per
year, 366 days in leap year). Interest begins to accrue no later than the
business day when we receive credit for the deposit of non-cash items (for
example, checks).
Interest is compounded monthly and will be credited to
your account each month on the closing date shown on your statement, unless we
agree to pay the interest in another manner. In order to obtain the interest
rate and annual percentage yield (APY) shown on the Annual Yield Disclosure of
this Agreement, you must maintain the minimum balance associated with that
tier. Your interest rate and annual percentage yield (APY) may be changed at
any time without prior notice.
Interest bearing accounts will be paid interest at a
rate based on the current market rates and alternate funding rates.We reserve the right to select the method of
determining the balances upon which interest will be paid, the time the funds
must be on deposit to be entitled to interest, the method of computing
interest, and the dates interest will be paid.The initial rate(s) of interest are shown on the Annual Yield Disclosure
of this Agreement when you open an interest bearing account.Subsequent interest rates may be obtained by
calling the One-Call
Center toll free at
(888)-522-2265.
Pre-authorized Transfer Service (PATS)
This service allows up to six (6) transfers in any
statement period from your Savings or Investor’s Money Market account to
yourtransaction (Checking) account when
the balance of your transaction account is overdrawn because of a check or
other withdrawal written or authorized by you. As required by Federal
Regulations, the maximum of six (6) allowable transfers during the statement
period will be reduced by withdrawals or transfers from the Savings or
Investor’s Money Market account which you make by telephone or computer. The
Bank reserves the right to refuse any automatic transfers beyond six (6) during
a statement period.
At the Bank’s discretion this service may be permitted
to allow transfers from one transaction account to another.

Important Information About Endorsements
Indemnification (Refer to General Terms and Conditions in this Agreement)
You agree to indemnify Lake City Bank
against and hold harmless from any liability or loss, including court costs,
reasonable attorney costs and other expenses, the Bank may incur resulting from
a delay in the forward collection or return of any item deposited into or
issued from your account, caused by improper placement ofendorsement(s) or other materials on the back
of the deposited or issued item that affects the Bank’s ability to endorse the
item as required by Federal Regulations.
In the event the Bank becomes party to
any legal proceedings between you and any third party, or between you and any
joint owner, it is agreed that all of the joint owners will reimburse all
liability, costs, charges, fees and expenses, including attorney and court
costs, incurred by the Bank as a result of such proceedings.
Endorsement Standards
All financial institutions are legally required to adhere to
formal bank endorsement standards when processing customer check deposits.Under these standards, the bank of first
deposit must place its endorsement in a specific area on the back of every
check it accepts for deposit.The area
reserved for this purpose is located near the middle of the check.To insure that our endorsement can easily be
identified by the paying bank in the event that it wishes to return the check,
customers are requested to avoid this middle area by placing their own personal
endorsement in an area within the first 1.5 inches on the back of the
check.Placing your endorsement in any
other area could obscure our own bank endorsement and delay the return of the
check.Losses associated with delays
caused by illegible bank endorsements will be the responsibility of the
customer.

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.

Your Liability for Unauthorized Transactions and Why
You Should Promptly Report Loss of Your Card
You agree not to give or make
available your card and/or Personal Identification Number (PIN) or code to any unauthorized individual. Tell
us AT ONCE if you believe your card or code has been lost or stolen or that
someone entrusted with your card has transferred or may transfer money from
your account without your permission. Contact us by calling 574-267-6144 ext. 6308
or 888-522-2265, or by writing: Lake City Bank Loss Prevention Department, P.O. Box 1387, Warsaw,
IN 46581-1387,
or by e-mail at lcbdirect@lakecitybank.com. IMPORTANT – Do not include your account number if contacting us via
e-mail since e-mail is not a secure form of communication. Telephoning is the
best way of keeping possible losses down, as all the money in your account,
plus your maximum overdraft privilege, is at risk.
If you believe your 24 Hour Teller ATM
Card or Visa® Debit Card has been lost, stolen, or misused in any
way, and you tell us within two (2) business days after you learn of the loss
or theft, 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 two (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, tell us at once. If you do not tell us within
60 calendar days after the statement was mailed to you, you may not get back
any money you lost after the 60 calendar 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.
A charge may be assessed if we issue
you a new 24 Hour Teller ATM Card account number and/or card, or a new Visa® Debit Card account number and/or card when your card is damaged, lost or
stolen. This charge will appear on your monthly account statement as a card
replacement fee. Refer to the current Personal Accounts and Services brochure.

OVERDRAFT PRIVILEGES POLICY (Non-Sufficient Funds)
It is the policy of Lake City Bank
(hereafter known as the Bank) to comply with all applicable laws and
regulations, and to conduct business in accordance with applicable safety and
soundness standards.
The Bank is not obligated to pay any
item presented for payment if your account does not contain sufficient
collected (available) funds. Any discretionary courtesy payment by the Bank of
any non-sufficient fund check or checks (or other items) does not obligate the
Bank to pay any additional non-sufficient fund check(s) or item(s) or to
provide prior written notice of its decision to refuse to pay any additional
non-sufficient fund check(s) or item(s).
Overdraft Privileges will be extended
to Personal Checking Accounts (primarily used for personal and household
purposes), and Small Business Checking Accounts and Classic Business Checking
Accounts, in good standing, which includes at least:
1. Bringing the account to a positive balance
every twenty-four (24) calendar days or less.
2. There are no holds including garnishments,
levies (whether legal or otherwise) outstanding currently or within a sixty
(60) calendar day period.
3. The account has been opened at least sixty (60)
calendar days.
4. The
account holder or holders are not greater than 60 calendar days past due on any
loan obligation to the Bank.
When your Personal Checking, Small
Business Checking or Classic Business Checking Account is maintained in good
standing, then the Bank will consider, as a discretionary courtesy and not a
right or obligation, approving your overdrafts. This courtesy will generally be
limited to: maximum of a $300.00 overdraft balance (including administrative
charges) for “EASY Checking”Accounts,
or $1,000.00 overdraft balance (including administrative charges) for all other
eligible Personal Checking Accounts, or $2,000.00 overdraft balance (including
administrative charges) for Small Business Checking and Classic Business
Checking Accounts.
A non-sufficient balance may result
from:
1. The payment of checks, electronic funds
transfers, or other withdrawal requests. (These can occur in person, at the
Automated Teller Machine, with a Point of Sale transaction, through Internet
Banking, Internet Bill Payment or Telephone Banking.)
2. Payments (checks or automatic drafts)
authorized by you.
3. The returned unpaid item(s) deposited by you.
4. The
imposition of bank service charges.
For Personal Checking Accounts, the standard Overdraft
Courtesy/Overdraft fee is assessed for each item paid and the standard
Non-Sufficient Funds (NSF) charge is assessed for each item returned. For Small
Business and Classic Business Checking Accounts, the standard Overdraft
Courtesy/Overdraft/Non-Sufficient Funds (NSF) fee will be charged to your
account when an item overdraws your account whether the item is paid or
returned.
The total of your overdraft balance, including any and
all bank fees and charges, is due and payable upon demand. The Depositor and
each Authorized Signatory will continue to be liable for such amounts as
described earlier under “Withdrawals” in this Agreement.
The Bank may refuse to pay an overdraft for you at any
time, even though the Bank may have previously paid overdrafts for you. You
will be notified by mail of any Overdraft Courtesy/Overdraft items paid or Non-Sufficient
Funds (NSF) items returned that you may have; however, we have no obligation to
notify you before we pay or return any item.
If multiple items are presented to the Bank for payment
and there are not sufficient funds to pay all those items, the Bank has the
right to decide the order of the items that will be paid and which items will
be returned, if any. Bank may select any payment order at any time, which may
include paying the largest items first such as a mortgage, rent or car payment.
Limitations: We may limit the number of accounts
eligible for Overdraft Privileges to one account per household or business. The
Bank reserves the right to not approve any overdrafts against your account
until we can verify that your account is being maintained in good standing, as
defined above. Additionally, the Bank reserves the right to exclude any
accounts from Overdraft Privileges as deemed necessary by the Bank.
Account Fees: When the Bank pays an Overdraft Courtesy/Overdraft
item or returns a Non-Sufficient Funds (NSF) item, a flat per-item administrative
charge will be charged to your account as set forth in the current Personal Accounts and Services brochure.
Overdraft Privileges is a non-contractual service
provided by the Bank which can be withdrawn at any time by the Bank. Certain
restrictions may apply. If you choose not to participate in the program, you
may “Opt Out” by providing written notification to the Bank at the following
address: Lake City Bank, Attn: Deposit Operations, P.O. Box 1387, Warsaw, IN
46581-1387.
