“Authorized Signer” means an Account Owner, a convenience signer, or any other person authorized to make deposits or withdrawals or execute any other transaction on this account.

You understand that you should read these terms, together with the other disclosures and documents constituting this Agreement carefully. Please review this Agreement and retain it in a safe place should you need to refer to it in the future.

2. SCOPE OF AGREEMENT AND CONFLICT: This Agreement and Bank’s schedule of fees and service charges as outlined in the Truth in Savings Disclosure and Fee Schedule may be supplemented by additional service agreements that you enter into with the Bank, such as agreements regarding online banking, mobile banking, remote deposits or other services. Wherever possible, both this Agreement and the additional service agreement shall govern. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and a service agreement, the terms and conditions of the service agreement shall govern with respect to the subject matter of the service agreement, but only to the extent there is a conflict. Account types for which services are only provided electronically do not allow for cashing of checks, cash deposits, or in person visits to branch offices.

3. VERIFICATION OF IDENTITY: 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 license or other identifying documents.

We may require any person seeking to conduct a banking transaction to present such identifying documentation and information as is acceptable to the Bank in its sole discretion before conducting the transaction. For example, and not by way of limitation, we may require a person to present a driver’s license or passport, provide a username and password, provide a token, provide answers to questions regarding the Customer or his or her accounts, or pass a biometric identification process, such as providing a fingerprint, fingerprint scan, photo for facial recognition, or other biometric test. We can secure further identification by other in accordance with applicable law or technological means. If the person does not provide or permit such identification, we can decline to cash the item and you will not claim that we wrongfully dishonored it.

4. FEES AND SERVICE CHARGES: You agree to pay, and this Account is subject to, various fees and service charges, including without limitation, fees listed on the Bank’s
Truth in Savings Disclosure and Fee Schedule. We may update the Fee Schedule from time to time at our discretion and will provide notice of changes to you. Subject to federal laws regarding overdraft fees, you agree that all ATM, debit card, and other electronic transactions are subject to all published fees, service charges and interest charges including those that result from insufficient funds transactions, overdrafts and advances against uncollected funds.

In the event a garnishment, attachment, levy, administrative order, subpoena, summons, or other legal or administrative process is initiated relating in any way to this Account, the Bank may take any action necessary to review and respond to such legal or administrative process. The Bank may charge reasonable fees for reviewing, investigating, and responding to any such legal or administrative process. Fees may include, but are not limited to, research charges, copying or electronic reproduction charges, attorney’s fees, and other costs which may be allowed by law. Unless prohibited by law, all expenses incurred by the Bank as a result of any legal, regulatory or administrative proceeding in any way affecting this Account, including but not limited to court costs, any arbitration costs and fees, and reasonable attorney’s fees, may be charged to this Account or billed directly to you.

All of the fees and service charges described herein may be deducted from and/or charged to this Account and the Bank shall not be liable for dishonoring checks, drafts, notes, acceptances, withdrawal and/or transfer documents, and/or other instruments or items, or for the failure to make automatic debits to this Account because of insufficient available funds in this Account resulting from (i) the charging of any service charges, fees or interest, (ii) any administrative hold due to a direct debit, withdrawal, or authorization, or (iii) any withdrawal or administrative hold due to any electronic or wire transfer, the receipt of any notice of return, or for any other reasonable cause.

5. MODIFICATION OF TERMS: Subject to state and federal law, the Bank may unilaterally amend this Agreement by sending written notice to you 30 days prior to the effective date of the amendment. The Bank may likewise amend the Truth in Savings Disclosure and Fee Schedule. For purposes of fees applicable to this Account, the effective date of a change to the Fee Schedule will be 30 days after the Bank sends you written notice of the change.

If you or your agent requests that the Bank hold notices or statements that would otherwise be sent to you, you and each Authorized Signer agree that any and all notices of amendment are made available to you and are deemed to have been sent to you as of the date when the notice of amendment would have otherwise been sent to you.

6. CONVERSION OF ACCOUNT: We reserve the right to convert the Account to another type of account offered by the Bank pursuant to the modification of terms provisions above.

7. CLASSIFICATION OF CHECKING ACCOUNTS: For regulatory accounting purposes, the Bank may, in its discretion, classify checking accounts as two sub-accounts: a transaction sub-account and a non-transaction sub-account. This classification will have no effect on the balance, the ability to use such account, the amount and rate of interest you receive, the service charges, or the Account statement. The Bank may transfer funds between these sub-accounts. The Bank will record the sub-accounts and transfer between them on the Bank’s internal accounting records only. All other terms, definitions and rules governing this Account remain in effect.

8. RATE INFORMATION: All interest-bearing accounts at the Bank, other than time deposits, accrue interest at a variable rate of interest. Interest rates are established from time to time by the Bank in its sole and absolute discretion and are subject to change without notice to you.

11. CLOSING THE ACCOUNT: Except as expressly limited in this Agreement, either you or the Bank may close this Account without notice at any time for any reason. For savings or interest-bearing checking accounts, the Bank may, in its discretion, require you to give the Bank seven (7) days advance notice prior to closing your savings or interest-bearing checking account or withdrawing all of your funds.

If the Bank closes this Account, the Bank may notify you of the effective date on which this Account will be, or was, closed. The Bank may remit to you any positive collected balance remaining in this Account within a reasonable time of the effective date of the closing of this Account. Prior to remitting any funds from the Account, the Bank may deduct from the Account any amounts you owe to the Bank, including, but not limited to, fees, service charges, accrued interest due and owed, any amount subject to the Bank’s right to setoff and any amount subject to a security interest belonging to the Bank and any amount due and owed for any of your other accounts or loans held by the Bank. If you or the Bank closes your Account before accrued interest has been credited to your account, you will not receive the accrued interest.

If the Bank closes your Account, the Bank may mail a check to you at the address that the Bank currently has associated with you in its records. The Bank may either return deposits, checks and other items that it has received after your Account is closed or, without being liable to you. This provision will survive the termination of this Agreement.

12. COMMUNICATION BETWEEN DEPOSITOR & BANK; THIRD PARTIES & BANK INFORMATION: You and each Authorized Signer authorize the Bank to obtain references and to verify any information regarding you or any Authorized Signer. You and each Authorized Signer further represent and warrant to the Bank that the information provided herein and all of the documents and information you, Authorized Signers, or your representatives have provided to the Bank are true and correct. The Bank may share information as more particularly described in the Bank’s privacy policy, which has been separately provided to you. The Bank may disclose information about Uniform Transfer to Minors Act Accounts to the minor and the minor’s guardian or representative. The custodian agrees to keep the Bank informed of the location of the minor.

12.1 CREDIT REPORTS: You and each authorized signer authorize the Bank to obtain reports about you periodically from organizations such as credit reporting agencies, check reporting services, and other consumer reporting entities. You and each Authorized Signer also authorize the Bank to provide information to consumer reporting agencies regarding your Account and your relationship with the Bank.

12.2 NOTICE OF NEGATIVE INFORMATION: Federal law requires the Bank to provide the following notice to customers 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.” After providing this notice, additional negative information may be submitted without providing another notice.

The Bank 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.

12.3 RECORDING: The Bank may, but is not required to, record your communications with the Bank. You give the Bank permission to record your communications with the Bank. If you authorize someone such as an attorney to do business with the Bank on your behalf, you will be responsible for obtaining their permission to allow the Bank to record their communications with the Bank.

12.4 NOTICES: The Bank may satisfy any obligation to provide notice to you pursuant to this agreement by sending written notice to your last known address or to the last known address or electronic notice to the most recent email address you provided to the Bank through its online banking service (“Online Banking”) or through your communications with customer service. The Bank may also provide you notices and documents by posting a notice to you through Online Banking or by sending a text message or voicemail to your last known phone number. Notice to you is effective the day it is e-mailed to you or otherwise made available to you electronically.

You may provide notice to the Bank by submitting a message to us through the secure message feature of Online Banking, sending an email to support@bankmd.com or mailing written notice to the Bank at:

BankMD, a Division of TransPecos Banks, SSB,
P.O. Box 1437
Westerville, OH 43086

Notice to the Bank is effective when it is received by the Bank. Notice to you is effective when sent as notice to every Account Owner and Authorized Signer. Notice to the Bank using any method other than written notice by mail is effective when the Bank acknowledges such notice in writing.

12.5 CHANGE OF ADDRESS: You agree to notify the Bank promptly of any change in your email or physical address by sending a secure message through Online Banking or by contacting Customer Service at 1-888-534-3509. Any other form or method of notice to the Bank of your change of address is inadequate. BANK IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES OR LIABILITY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THEFT, FRAUD, EMBEZZLEMENT, SERVICE CHARGES OR OTHER FEES, ACCOUNT DORMANCY, OR ESCHEAT CAUSED BY OR ARISING OUT OF YOUR FAILURE TO KEEP BANK APPRISED OF YOUR CURRENT EMAIL OR PHYSICAL ADDRESS.

13. ACCOUNTHOLDER RESPONSIBILITIES: You acknowledge that you have a duty to manage your Account in a responsible manner. Good account management means understanding options and making an informed choice about how to conduct transactions. This includes balancing your checkbook by recording all transactions, reviewing your monthly Account statement, and tracking your Account balance. Keeping a balanced checkbook is the best way to avoid unnecessary fees.

14. YOUR DUTY TO REPORT UNAUTHORIZED SIGNATURES, ALTERATIONS AND FORGERIES: You must examine Account statements with “reasonable promptness.” If you discover (or reasonably should have discovered) any unauthorized signatures or alterations, you must promptly notify the Bank of the relevant facts. As between you and the Bank, if you fail to do either of these duties, you will have to either share the loss with the Bank or bear the loss entirely yourself (depending on whether the Bank used ordinary care and, if not, whether the Bank contributed to the loss). The loss could be not only with respect to items on the statement but other items with unauthorized signatures or alterations by the same wrongdoer. You agree that the time you have to examine your statement and report to the Bank will depend on the circumstances, but will not, in any circumstance, exceed a total of 30 days from when the statement is first sent or made available to you, which you agree is reasonable. You further agree that if you fail to report any unauthorized signatures, alterations or forgeries in your account within 60 days of when we first send or make the statement available, you cannot assert a claim against the Bank on any items in that statement, and as between you and the Bank the loss will be entirely yours. This 60-day limitation is without regard to whether we used ordinary care.

15. YOUR DUTY TO REPORT OTHER ERRORS: In addition to your duty to review your statements for unauthorized signatures, alterations, and forgeries, you agree to examine your statement with reasonable promptness for any other errors such as an encoding error. You agree that the time you have to examine your statement and report to the Bank will depend on the circumstances. However, such time period shall not exceed 60 days. Failure to examine your statement and report any such errors to the Bank within 60 days of when we first send or make the statement available precludes you from asserting a claim against the Bank for any such errors on items identified in that statement, and as between you and the Bank the loss will be entirely yours.

16. RIGHT TO SETOFF AND SECURITY INTEREST: You and Authorized Signers, jointly and severally, grant to the Bank a security interest in, and a right to setoff against, any and all monies, securities or other property of yours and each Authorized Signer now, or hereafter, in the possession of, or on deposit with the Bank. To the extent allowed by law, (i) the security interests and right to setoff granted herein shall secure payment of any and all indebtedness to the Bank of yours and each Authorized Signers, incurred individually or jointly with others, now or hereafter owed to the Bank, (ii) any indebtedness now or hereafter owed to the Bank by you and Authorized Signers may be charged to and setoff against any account at the Bank that is owned jointly or solely by you, in your name, or in the name of any Authorized Signer, and (iii) the security interests and right to setoff granted herein may be exercised by the Bank without any prior demand on, or notice to you or any Authorized Signer.

The setoff rights, liens and/or security interests granted herein do not attach to homestead property as defined in the Texas Constitution and Texas Property Code and may not be exercised in contravention of Article 16 Section 50 of the Texas Constitution regarding liens on homestead property and home equity lending. You and each Authorized Signer agree that the Bank’s right to setoff applies to any item cashed or otherwise paid by the Bank. The Bank’s security interest and right to setoff granted herein do not apply if the debt is created under a consumer credit card plan or if the debt is of an Authorized Signer who is not you.

THE BANK’S LIABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY, IF ANY, FOR EXERCISING ANY RIGHT TO SETOFF OR FOR ANY FORECLOSURE OF ANY SECURITY INTEREST IS EXPRESSLY LIMITED TO REIMBURSEMENT OF THE AMOUNT OF NET FUNDS SETOFF OR ACTUALLY RECEIVED BY THE BANK. THE BANK IS NOT LIABLE FOR DISHONORED ITEMS OR REJECTED TRANSACTIONS, WHERE THE BANK’S EXERCISE OF ITS RIGHT TO SETOFF OR FORECLOSURE OF ITS SECURITY INTEREST CAUSES SUBSEQUENT TRANSACTIONS TO BE DISHONORED OR REJECTED BECAUSE THERE ARE INSUFFICIENT AVAILABLE COLLECTED FUNDS IN THE ACCOUNT.

TRANSACTION PROCESSING

17. TRANSACTION PROCESSING PROCEDURES: The Bank may refuse to perform any requested act, transaction, or process, which it is not expressly obligated to perform under the terms of this Agreement. The Bank has no obligation to accept deposits or to pay or process any checks, drafts, withdrawal or transfer documents, wires, or other items or transfer types. The Bank may provide notice of any such refusal on your Account statement or another method convenient to the Bank. The Bank may modify its internal procedures at any time without notice for any type of transaction that the Bank deems necessary in order to protect the Bank or you. The Bank may process checks or other items drawn on this Account, or any electronic transfers and electronic transactions in any order (largest to smallest, smallest to largest, numerically or otherwise). The Bank’s current method is described in “Order of Payment” in Section 18 of this Agreement. The Bank may change our processing order at any time, even though some processing orders may result in more insufficient funds fees to you than others.

18. ORDER OF PAYMENT: The Bank will generally process transactions in the order in which they are received at the time they are received and processed by the Bank. Debit card transactions are posted in the order in which they are received by the Bank. Wire transactions are posted in the order in which they are received by the Bank. Mobile deposit transactions are accumulated in intervals are and posted in batches at one of four (4) times each Business Day. ACH transactions are processed when they are received. For ACH transactions received simultaneously, credit transactions are processed first, debit transactions are processed second. Debit card merchants, ATM networks, ACH originators and processors, and other persons involved in processing electronic transactions a) may delay processing transactions, b) may be subject to varying processing speeds, and c) may be subject to various payment security controls that the Bank does not control. Processing times may vary from immediate processing to processing over several days or more. We cannot guarantee that your transactions will be processed in the order in which they occur. Before conducting a transaction, you should determine whether your outstanding transactions have been received and processed by the Bank. The order in which transactions are processed can affect the total amount of overdraft or non-sufficient funds fees incurred. The Bank reserves the right to clear and post transactions in any order, to the extent permitted by law.

19. WITHDRAWALS GENERALLY: You, any Authorized Signer, or other person you authorize may withdraw or transfer all or any part of the Account balance at any time. You authorize each other person who signs or has authority to make withdrawals to endorse any item payable to you or your order for deposit to this Account or any other transaction with us. The Bank reserves the right to require not less than 7 days’ notice in writing before each withdrawal from an interest-bearing transaction account or from any other savings account as defined by Regulation D. Withdrawals from a time account prior to maturity or prior to any notice period may be restricted and may be subject to penalty. In the event your Account is a time account, we will provide you with notice of penalty for early withdrawal.

20. TRANSFER LIMITATIONS: For savings and money market accounts you may make up to six transfers or withdrawals during any calendar month or statement cycle of at least four weeks. If you exceed any transfer limits on your account, the Bank may charge your account and may close or transfer your account to another deposit account type selected by us for which you are eligible. The Bank will use the date a transaction is completed by the Bank (as opposed to the day you initiate it) to apply the frequency limitations.

21. HOLDS ON ACCOUNT FUNDS: If the Bank cashes or provides cash equivalents for a check or other item presented by any Authorized Signer or his/her agent or representative drawn on another bank, the Bank is authorized to and may reduce the available funds of this Account by an equal amount. The funds subject to the administrative hold will be available again in this Account after receipt by the Bank of final settlement for such a check or other item.

22. CHECK AND ITEM FORM SPECIFICATIONS: The Bank will not accept cash, checks, or other instruments for deposit in person or by mail. You may deposit checks using the mobile deposit feature of the Bank’s mobile app. You agree that the Bank may refuse to accept for deposit or to process any check, draft, payment order, withdrawal or transfer document, or other item that is presented in a form that the Bank cannot process using equipment that the Bank regularly uses in its normal operations. If the Bank, in its sole and absolute discretion and without any obligation or duty, accepts or pays any item that is not within the Bank’s form specifications, each such transaction is subject to additional fees and service charges as set forth in the BankMD Truth in Savings Disclosure and Fee Schedule. The Bank is expressly authorized to construe as “or” any symbol, mark or word (other than the word “and”) or may imply “or” in the absence of any connective on the payee line of any check or other item containing multiple payees.

23. CHECK STOCK: You agree and stipulate that the check stock offered for purchase from or through the Bank is printed on special paper which contains multiple features and watermarks to prevent and detect check fraud, duplication, and counterfeiting and that the use of non-bank check stock significantly increases the risk of loss that may result from check fraud and duplication. You agree not to use checks or check stock that are not in a format approved by the Bank. You acknowledge that the Bank and other depository banks may not be able to properly take or process checks or check stock that are not approved by the Bank. You further agree that the Bank is not liable for loss resulting from check fraud or duplication on check stock purchased from a source other than the Bank, to the extent such loss is not attributable to the Bank’s failure to exercise ordinary care. Checks are not available for all account types.

24. DUTY TO SAFEGUARD: You and each Authorized Signer have a non-delegable duty to safeguard (i) all checks and other encoded items from being stolen, or otherwise taken, or utilized without authority, (ii) all account numbers, routing number, Personal Identification Numbers and customer authentication information, (iii) all public and private key encryption information, and (iv) all other Account related private information. You agree to protect such items and information with the same care, as you would your most sensitive personal or financial information. In no case will you safeguard such information with less than a reasonable standard of care.

If any checks or other encoded items are stolen, or otherwise taken or utilized without authority, and the Bank has exercised ordinary care, each Authorized Signer agrees that the Bank is relieved of any and all liability for the negotiation, payment, certification or processing of any such checks and/or other encoded items.

If you voluntarily disclose your Account information to another person orally, in writing, electronically, or by some other means, the Bank may treat such disclosure as your authorization to that person to issue items drawn against your Account. Until you notify the Bank that such items are not authorized, the Bank shall not be liable to you for the payment of any such items even though the items are not in accordance with the authorization you may have given to that person.

A withdrawal by a co-owner or other person with an interest in or authority to transact business on your Account is an authorized withdrawal. A withdrawal by a person you have authorized to use your ATM or debit card or the Bank Account Card is not unauthorized even if that person has exceeded the authority you gave.

If you voluntarily give information about your Account (such as our routing number and your Account number) to a party who is seeking to collect a debt or sell you goods or services, and you do not physically deliver a check to the party, any debit to your account initiated by the party to whom you gave the information is deemed authorized by you.

25. BANK’S DUTY OF CARE: Due to the large volume of items the Bank must process and the largely automated nature of such processing, you agree that the Bank will not have failed to exercise ordinary care if the Bank examines only a sampling of items pursuant to a written procedure or that meets certain minimum review and inspection criteria which the Bank may establish from time to time. The Bank may utilize a bulk filing system in the processing of checks and other encoded items, and the use of a bulk filing system in the processing of checks and other encoded items will constitute the exercise of ordinary care by the Bank under this Agreement. You accept this standard of care and acknowledge that the Bank’s use of ordinary care as defined above may not detect some types of counterfeit checks. The Bank’s policies and procedures are solely for its use and do not impose upon the Bank a higher standard of care than is otherwise established by applicable law or regulation.

26. COMPARATIVE NEGLIGENCE: If your failure to exercise ordinary care substantially contributes to the forgery or alteration of an item which is paid against this Account or contributes to a loss due to a mistake in a deposit or charge against the Account, you will be precluded from asserting such forgery or alteration or mistake against the Bank. If the Bank asserts such a preclusion and you establish that the Bank’s failure to exercise ordinary care substantially contributed to the loss resulting from the payment of the forged or altered item(s), or other mistakes, the loss shall be allocated between you and the Bank on a comparative basis. Notwithstanding this comparative negligence standard, the Bank will not be liable if items are forged or altered such that the forgery or alteration could not have been detected by the Bank by exercising ordinary care.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Bank will never be liable for, or responsible in any way for, any percentage of any alleged loss or damages purportedly resulting from an alteration, forgery, counterfeit items, unauthorized signature, or endorsement or any other irregularity on any item or in the Account, unauthorized remotely created item, or electronic debit, which is greater than the percentage of any alleged loss or damages proximately caused by the Bank’s failure to exercise ordinary care, if any, regardless of the percentage of proximate causation attributable to you or an Authorized Signer.

27. CREDITS FOR DEPOSITS: With regard to items received for deposit or collection, the Bank acts only as your collecting agent and assumes no responsibility beyond its exercise of ordinary care. The Bank reserves the right to refuse any item for deposit into your Account. All credits to this Account are only provisional and are subject to final payment and receipt by the Bank at its own offices of proceeds of final payment in cash in United States currency, free from any claims, rights to setoff, or other chargeback rights. The Bank may forward items to correspondents for handling and shall not be liable for any default or negligence of any correspondent. Items and their proceeds may be handled by any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with applicable Federal Reserve Rules, with Regulation CC, and by the Bank or any correspondent in accordance (i) with any general banking usage, (ii) with any accepted industry standard or practice, (iii) with any practice or procedure that a Federal Reserve Bank may use or permit any other bank to use, or (iv) with any other lawful means or practice.

The Bank may charge back against this Account or any other account you hold at the Bank, at any time allowed by law, any item drawn on this the Bank which is returned unpaid or otherwise not good or payable. If a deposited item, check, draft, or automated clearing house entry is returned to the Bank by the bank on which it is drawn, the Bank may accept that return and charge the item back against this Account or any other account you hold at the Bank, without regard to whether the paying bank returned the item before its return deadline. Unless prohibited by applicable law or regulation, the Bank may charge back to this Account, or to any other account belonging to you at the Bank, the amount of any item deposited to this Account or negotiated for cash or cash equivalents, or certified, which item initially was paid by the payor the Bank and which is later returned due to an alleged forgery, unauthorized or missing endorsement, claim of alteration, encoding error or any other alleged problem or irregularity. The Bank may process a copy or other evidence of a returned item in lieu of the original.

An item received after the cut-off time specified in the BankMD Funds Availability Policy shall be deemed received the next business day. The Bank reserves the right to post all deposits not later than midnight of its next business day after their actual receipt of the deposit during regular business hours, or at any later time allowed by law, and the Bank shall not be liable for damages, claims or expenses due to any item presented during any time period allowed herein.

When the Bank accepts deposits and issues receipts, such deposits and receipts are subject to subsequent verification and correction, if necessary. If the Bank discovers or receives satisfactory documentation that an Account entry was made in error or for an erroneous amount or is otherwise incorrect, the Bank may debit this Account for the amount erroneously credited or take such other action as may be required to correct the error, and each Authorized Signer agrees to reimburse the Bank to the extent that the collected available funds in this Account at such time are insufficient to fully correct the error. In the event that any payment does not become final, or is corrected, the originator of the payment will not be deemed to have paid you the amount of the erroneous credit. Each Authorized Signer will be solely responsible for any loss, damage or expense caused by any failure to identify properly the account to which a deposit is made or intended to be made.

We may accept for deposit any item payable to you or your order, even if they are not endorsed by you. We may give cash back to any one of you. We may supply any missing endorsements for any item we accept for deposit or collection, and you warrant that all endorsements are genuine.

28. MULTIPLE SIGNATURES: If this Account purports to require two or more signatures on any item, each Authorized Signer acknowledges that such provision is solely for your personal or internal control purposes and is not binding on the Bank. You acknowledge and agree that the Bank processes checks based on electronic or magnetically coded information on the face of the check or substitute check. the Bank will not be obligated to review signatures prior to processing check transactions or other transactions. The Bank will not be liable for paying any item lacking the required number of signatures if such item bears at least one authorized signature.

29. NON-MANUAL FORM OF SIGNATURE: If any items drawn on this Account are signed, countersigned or endorsed using any facsimile signature, stamp signature, mechanical signature, computer software generated signature or other non-manual form of signature (collectively referred to as “non-manual form of signature”), you acknowledge that the use of such non-manual form of signature is solely for your benefit and convenience. Each Authorized Signer accepts sole responsibility for maintaining security over any device utilized for affixing each authorized signature on this Account.

Any non-manual form of signature reasonably resembling any signature on file with the Bank or affixed to any prior item which was accepted and paid, previously processed without objection, presented for cash or other negotiation, or deposited to this Account will be effective as a genuine authorized signature of an Authorized Signer and the Bank is hereby authorized to debit this Account for payment of any item signed by such non-manual form of signature, regardless of whether the person affixing it was authorized to do so or not, and regardless of when, or by whom or by what means the actual or purported non-manual form of signature may have been made or affixed thereto. The Bank may also conclusively treat as authorized any signature that reasonably resembles the non-manual form of signature you have adopted as your own, whether such non-manual form of signature is affixed by the original or a duplicate of the signature, device, stamp, or program.

30. DEMAND DRAFTS: If you attempt to deposit a demand draft (an unsigned draft or a preauthorized draft) into your account, you warrant and guarantee that the draft is valid as drawn and authorized. We may, in our sole discretion, refuse to accept a demand draft.

31. RETURN OF DEPOSITS: The Bank may, in its sole and absolute discretion and without reason or cause, return or refuse to accept any deposit, transfer or other credit, in whole or in part, to this Account at any time and will not be liable for doing so.

32. INCOMPLETE OR CONDITIONAL ITEMS: If any Authorized Signer issues an item which is incomplete or conditional (such as “Void After 90 Days” or “Not Valid Over $500.00”), each Authorized Signer acknowledges such provision or condition is solely for your convenience or internal control purposes and agrees that the Bank may pay such item, in its sole and absolute discretion, even if it is incomplete or the condition has not been fulfilled.

33. COLLECTION OF FOREIGN ITEMS AND EXCHANGES: The Bank does not accept foreign items or currency for deposit.

34. ENDORSEMENTS: If any endorsement is placed on an item for deposit which is outside of the area extending 1 1/2 inches from the trailing edge of the check, draft or other item, or otherwise causes the endorsement of the first bank of deposit to be obscured in any way, and this causes a delay or error in the collection or return of the item, each Authorized Signer will be responsible, jointly and severally, for any loss or expense the Bank may incur as a result thereof. The trailing edge is defined as the left side of the item as viewed from the front.
Endorsements made on checks which are deposited by mobile application must include the following statement: “for mobile deposit at BankMD only” and your account number.

35. DELAY IN RETURN OF ITEMS: You agree that the Bank will not be liable to you because an item you deposit in this Account is returned after the time set by applicable law if the delay in returning the item is caused by markings on the item in the space reserved for the depository bank’s endorsement that were made by you or a prior endorser. Where the delay in properly returning the item is caused by markings on the item in the space reserved for the depository institution’s endorsement that existed at the time you issued the item, you will also be liable to the Bank for any loss or expense, including without limitation, reasonable attorney fees, the Bank incurs because it is unable to properly return an item drawn on this Account within the time set by applicable law.

37. STOP PAYMENTS: Stop payment requests must be made via Online Banking or by calling Customer Service at 1-888-534-3509. A stop payment request must specify at a minimum, the date of the item, the exact amount of the item, the item number, and the precise account number. The Bank will employ reasonable efforts to comply with a stop payment request within a reasonable time after receipt of the request. A request for stop payment is effective for twelve (12) months. A stop payment request may be renewed by written request to the Bank. The Bank will not be held liable if an item is presented for payment and paid after a stop payment request has expired. The Bank may, but is not required to, honor oral stop payment requests. If you make an oral stop payment request and the Bank accepts such request, you must confirm the stop payment request in writing within a reasonable time, but in no more than 10 days from the oral request. The Bank is not required to honor an unconfirmed oral stop payment request. If your check has been converted to an electronic transaction (ACH), and you wish to stop that transaction, contact a Bank representative promptly. Checks converted to ACH require different stop payment procedures. Stopping the paper check will not stop the electronic transaction.

The deadline for receipt of a stop payment request is one (1) hour after the opening of the next Business day after the Business day on which the Bank received the item. For purposes of this paragraph “Business day” is defined as Monday through Friday, from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm, excluding federal and state holidays or other posted Bank closings. For stop payment orders for recurring electronic transactions, please refer to the Regulation E Disclosure/Electronic Funds Transfer Agreement.

EACH AUTHORIZED SIGNER AGREES TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE BANK FROM ANY AND ALL CLAIMS BY THIRD PARTIES, AND ALL EXPENSES AND COSTS INCURRED BY THE BANK (INCLUDING ITS REASONABLE ATTORNEY’S FEES AND COSTS) AS A RESULT OF REFUSING PAYMENT OF SAID ITEM OR ITEMS. EACH AUTHORIZED SIGNER FURTHER AGREES THAT THE BANK WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR PAYMENT OF AN ITEM SUBJECT TO A STOP PAYMENT REQUEST IF SUCH PAYMENT OCCURS THROUGH INADVERTENCE, ACCIDENT, OR OVERSIGHT, OR IS CREDITED TO, OR AGAINST, ANY CLAIMED INDEBTEDNESS OF ANY AUTHORIZED SIGNER, OR IF BY REASON OF SUCH PAYMENT OTHER ITEMS DRAWN ON THIS ACCOUNT ARE RETURNED DUE TO INSUFFICIENT OR UNCOLLECTED AVAILABLE FUNDS. THE BANK’S LIABILITY, IF ANY, FOR PAYING AN ITEM SUBJECT TO A PROPER, TIMELY AND EFFECTIVE STOP PAYMENT ORDER IS LIMITED TO YOUR ACTUAL ECONOMIC LOSS SUSTAINED, OR TO THE FACE AMOUNT OF THE ITEM, WHICHEVER IS LESS.

38. WAIVER OF PROTEST, DISHONOR, NONPAYMENT: Each Authorized Signer agrees to waive demand, protest and notice of dishonor or nonpayment regarding any items deposited to this Account or presented for cash or negotiation. Any warranty or other liability of any Authorized Signer as an endorser will not be released by the Bank by obtaining verification regarding any presented or deposited item.

39. DELAY IN AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS: If an item or other right to funds is deposited in or credited to this Account where the availability of such funds may be delayed pursuant to applicable state or federal law, then whether or not the Bank has received final settlement, such funds are deemed unavailable to you for the time period prescribed by law or set forth in a notification delivered to you.

40. DETERMINING YOUR ACCOUNT’S AVAILABLE BALANCE: Your available balance is the most recent record we have of the funds available for withdrawal from your Account. The available balance is your current balance plus any pending deposits minus any holds on deposits you have made and pending transactions (such as pending debit card purchases or ATM withdrawals) that the Bank has authorized but that have not yet posted to your Account. It is possible for you to overdraw your Account even though the available balance appears to show there are sufficient funds to cover a transaction that you want to make. This happens because the available balance may not reflect all of your outstanding checks, recurring ACH or debit card payments, or other transactions. Your available balance may also not reflect the most recent deposits to your Account – see the Section 39 titled “Delay in Availability of Funds” in this document. In some cases, a merchant may not submit a one-time debit card transaction for payment within the time period specified in the payment network rules governing your card. In such a case, the available balance will no longer show an authorization hold and will not reflect the transaction until it has been received by us and paid from your Account. Keep a record all of your transactions in a check register. This will help you keep track of your Account balance.

41. ELECTRONIC PRESENTMENT: This Account may be debited on the day an item or requested authorization is presented by electronic or other means or at an earlier time based on notification received by the Bank that an item drawn on this Account has been deposited for collection in another financial institution, or that an item deposited into this Account is being returned. A determination of the Account balance for purposes of making a decision to dishonor an item for insufficiency of collected available funds may be made at any time between the receipt of such presentment or notice and the time of return of the item, and no more than one such determination need be made.

42. LOST CHECKS: When the Bank cashes a check for you or accepts a check for deposit to your Account, the Bank acts as your agent in collecting the check. The Bank is not responsible for checks that are lost or delayed in the collection process. If a check is lost during the collection process, we may charge your Account for the amount of the check. If the financial institution on which the check is drawn gives us a photocopy or electronic image of the check or debit slip representing the check, we may charge your Account for the amount of the check. You agree to recreate the transaction and provide the Bank all information requested regarding such lost item.

A lost check may not be returned to us for some time. Despite any delay, we may charge your Account when we receive either the returned check, a copy of the check, or a notice of return.

43. STALE-DATED ITEMS: The Bank is not required to pay any item presented more than six months after its date. However, the Bank may in its sole discretion pay such item in good faith. You agree that the Bank is acting in good faith if there is not a stop payment order in effect when it pays the item.

44. POST-DATED ITEMS: Each Authorized Signer agrees not to issue post-dated checks or other items. Unless you notify the Bank in writing of a post-dated check or other item within a reasonable time as will afford the Bank an opportunity to act on such notice, the Bank may, in its sole discretion, return the postdated check or other item unpaid or may pay the check or item prior to the date of the check or item. The notice must describe the item by item number, item amount, item date, and account number. You release and will indemnify and hold harmless the Bank from any and all claims, damages and costs, including, but not limited to the Bank’s reasonable attorney’s fees, related to paying, accepting or certifying a postdated check or other item prior to the date set forth on the check or other item, unless you give prior notice to the Bank in accordance with this provision.

45. OVERDRAFTS AND ADVANCES AGAINST UNCOLLECTED FUNDS: The Bank will not be liable for failure to pay or honor any item or withdrawal request unless it is drawn or requested against available funds credited to this Account at the opening of business of the day the item is presented for payment or the request is received. The decision whether to pay any item which will create an overdraft, or which will be an advance against uncollected funds shall be in the sole and absolute discretion of the Bank and any payment of such item on one or more occasion does not obligate the Bank to allow or pay any additional or future overdraft or advance against uncollected funds. Nothing contained herein shall imply the Bank’s allowance, or payment, of one or more overdraft or advances against uncollected funds, nor will it create a revolving line of credit, a continuing obligation on the part of the Bank to overdraw or advance against uncollected funds or any other financing arrangement between you, any Authorized Signer or the Bank. The processing and handling charge for NSF items or items presented against uncollected funds is not a charge for the use, forbearance, or detention of money. Such charge would be made whether or not the Bank pays the item. These service charges and fees are more fully described herein in the Bank’s Truth in Savings Disclosure and Fee Schedule.

46. TRANSACTION RESTRICTIONS: The Bank may, in its sole and absolute discretion, for security reasons place limitations on the amounts of withdrawals and other transactions you make. Please see the Truth in Savings Disclosure and Fee Schedule for current transaction limitations.

47. DIRECT DEPOSIT OF GOVERNMENTAL ITEMS: If, in connection with a direct deposit plan, the Bank deposits any amount in this Account which should have been returned to the Federal Government for any reason, each Authorized Signer authorizes the Bank to deduct the amount of any liability to the Federal Government from this Account or from any other account at the Bank without prior notice and at any time, except as prohibited by law. The Bank may also use any other remedy to recover the amount of the Bank’s liability. You and each Authorized Signer acknowledge that Social Security Benefits directly deposited into this Account have special protections and exemptions, and knowingly agree that any amount of Social Security Benefits directly deposited into this Account are subject to overdraft charges, fees and interest and may be applied to the payment thereof.

48. CHECK 21 – SUBSTITUTE CHECKS AND YOUR RIGHTS: To make check processing faster, federal law permits the Bank to replace original checks with “substitute checks.” These checks are similar in size to the original checks with a slightly reduced image of the front and back of the original check. The front of a substitute check states: “This is a legal copy of your check. You can use it the same way you would use the original check.” You may use a substitute check as proof of payment just like the original check.

Some or all of the checks described in your Account statement may be substitute checks. This notice describes rights you have when you receive substitute checks from us. The rights in this notice do not apply to original checks or electronic debits to your Account. However, you have rights under other laws with respect to those transactions. Details on your rights and how to submit a claim are set forth in the Funds Availability Policy provided to you when you opened your account. If you deposit a substitute check into your Account, you give us the same warranties and indemnities that the Bank, as a reconverting bank, would give under Check 21 regulations.

49. SUBSTITUTE CHECKS AND CHECK IMAGES: In lieu of returning each of your paid checks and other items, the Bank may provide the check number, amount and date of payment in your account statement, electronically or otherwise, together with images of the front of all of your canceled checks and other items displayed in check number order via Online Banking or on your statement. As soon as an item is copied it may be destroyed. Within a reasonable time after the Bank received your request, it will furnish a copy of both front and back of such item within the required retention period. You continue to be responsible for notifying the Bank in writing of any unauthorized signature, lack of signature, alteration or other irregularity within the time periods described herein.

TRANSACTION PROCESSING ELECTRONICALLY:

51. CONVERTING CHECKS TO ELECTRONIC DEBITS: Some businesses use a procedure to convert checks that are drawn on your Account with us into electronic debits. To use this procedure, you sign an authorization that permits the business to convert the check to an electronic debit. The business may process your check through a machine that captures the account routing number, check amount, and other relevant information. An electronic debit for the transaction amount is then sent to the Bank. When the Bank receives the electronic debit, it may charge it to your account at any time, regardless of the balance of your Account. The Bank may receive the electronic debit to your Account immediately after the business enters the transaction. To avoid an overdraft, you must have sufficient funds in your Account to cover the amount of the check at the time you authorize the transaction. Since the check is not sent to the Bank for processing, the Bank will not have a copy of your check. You should retain a copy of the check for your records. Electronic debits are listed on your Account statement.

52. NOTICE OF RECEIPT OF AUTOMATED CLEARING HOUSE (“ACH”) ITEMS: Under the operating rules of the National Automated Clearing House Association which are applicable to ACH transactions involving this Account, the Bank is not required to give you next day notice of the receipt of an ACH item, and the Bank will not do so. However, the Bank will continue to notify you of the receipt of payments in the Account statements the Bank provides to you.

53. PROVISIONAL PAYMENT: Credit given by the Bank to you with respect to an automated clearing house credit entry is provisional until the Bank receives final settlement. If the Bank does not receive final settlement, you are hereby notified and agree that the Bank is entitled to a refund of any or all of the amount credited to you in connection with such entry, and the party making payment to you via such entry (i.e., the originator of the entry) shall not have been deemed to have paid you the amount of such entry.

54. CHOICE OF LAW FOR ACH TRANSACTIONS: The Bank may accept, on your behalf, payments in your account which have been transmitted through one or more Automated Clearing Houses and which are not subject to the Electronic Fund Transfer Act. Your rights and obligations with respect to such payment shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the operating rules of the National Automated Clearing House Association.

55. AUTOMATED CLEARING HOUSE FUNDS TRANSFER AUTHORIZATION AND AGREEMENT: To the extent you or an Authorized Signer utilizes the Bank’s funds transfer services, you direct and authorize the Bank to transfer funds from this Account to specifically designated accounts, whether such accounts are with the Bank or with another financial institution and to further execute funds transfer instructions or payment orders and to receive funds to be deposited in this Account, pursuant to the following terms and conditions:

55.1 PAYMENTS ORDERS AND FUNDS TRANSFERS:

(i) The Bank is authorized to act on any oral or written directions whether delivered or communicated to the Bank in person, by messenger, by telephone, telegraph, facsimile transmission, telex, U.S. mail, approved automated or electronic transmission or in other manner mutually agreed upon in writing by you and the Bank, and the Bank shall be entitled to rely on any writing, letter, telex, teletype message, cablegram, statement, order, instruction, or other written communication, or any telephone or personal conversation believed by the Bank in good faith to have been signed, forwarded, delivered, or communicated by any Authorized Signer or your agent representative.

(ii) The Bank shall be under no obligation to comply with any payment order or to make any funds transfer which would exceed the available collected balance of funds in this Account. The Bank may refuse to accept or give effect to any payment order for any reason.

(iii) You shall have no right to cancel or amend any payment order after it is accepted by the Bank, unless the Bank otherwise agrees in writing.

(iv) In the event of an erroneous or otherwise irregular funds transfer, the Bank may, but shall not be obligated to, on its own initiative or pursuant to your request, ask the receiving bank, the beneficiary’s bank or the beneficiary of the funds transfer, to return the funds previously transferred in error on your behalf.

(v) A payment order is paid at the time the payment order is executed, at the time the transfer is credited to the beneficiary’s account on the books of the Bank, or at the time the advice of credit of such funds transfer is forwarded or otherwise communicated to the beneficiary by the Bank, whichever occurs first.

(vi) The Bank is authorized to record any telephonic or other oral instructions received from you by the Bank regarding funds transfers or receipts, however, the Bank has no duty to record or maintain any record of your oral instructions by audio tape or handwritten notes.

(vii) The Bank may handle or execute payment orders received from you or from other Bank customers in any order selected by the Bank, in its sole and absolute discretion, regardless of time or order of sequence of receipt by the Bank, and the Bank may use any means, methods, or routes which it, in its sole and absolute discretion, may consider suitable for executing each separate payment order.

(viii) The Bank may establish, designate and provide a notice of a cutoff time or opening and closing times for each the Bank or branch location as a “funds transfer business day” for the receipt and processing of payment orders and communications canceling or amending payment orders. Any payment order or communication received after the designated and noticed closing times or on a Saturday, Sunday, or any bank holiday observed by the Bank where the payment order or other communication is delivered, shall be deemed received by the Bank on the next “funds transfer business day”.

(ix) The Bank and any subsequent receiving bank may execute payment orders for the transfer of funds to a beneficiary in the name of the beneficiary or solely by an account number of the beneficiary furnished to the Bank by you or another sender. In the event there is any discrepancy between the name of the designated beneficiary and account number, the payment order may be executed by reference to the account number only.

55.2 SECURITY PROCEDURES: You will be subject to the following security procedures:

(i) The Bank, at its option, may verify that a payment order or communication amending or canceling a payment order is yours by calling you at a telephone number you specify. This telephone number may be changed by your written notice.

(ii) The Bank may require that you identify yourself in connection with each payment order by a method specified by the Bank. The Bank shall not be obligated to execute any transfer unless the authorized representative who places the payment order is able to complete the procedure specified by the Bank. The Bank may change such procedures at any time upon notice to you or any authorized representative. You agree to keep each such security procedures confidential and the Bank shall have no liability for losses occasioned by unauthorized access to or use of security procedures.

(iii) The Bank may, in its sole discretion, elect not to act upon a payment order if the payment order is not initiated in accordance with agreed security procedures. If the Bank is unable to obtain proper verification of such payment order, or is otherwise suspicious regarding payment order, if there is any inconsistency between a payment order and information previously supplied to the Bank. If the Bank acts on a payment order it believes in good faith is authorized by you, it will have no liability for executing a payment order.

(iv) You agree to these security procedures and agree that they are reasonable in light of your Account use and the amount, frequency, and nature of your funds transfer activity.

55.3 REVIEW OF STATEMENTS AND ADVICES: In addition to your other obligations set forth herein, under applicable clearing house association rules, and under applicable law, you agree to promptly review and reconcile your Account statements with the Bank and shall report to Customer Service any discrepancies, errors, inaccuracies, unauthorized requests, or objections of any other type or nature between the Bank’s records and your records within a reasonable time, not to exceed fourteen (14) calendar days from the earlier of the date of the statement or the date the Bank otherwise advises you of the funds transfer. Your failure to notify the Bank of within such specified time period will relieve the Bank of any liability to you for any such discrepancies, errors, or other objections.

55.4 COMPENSATION: Subject to the “Review of Statements And Advices” provision above, compensation, if any, for the loss of interest or use of funds due to you caused solely by the Bank’s error or the Bank’s failure to execute a transfer request no later than one Business day after the date received (if such request was received prior to the Bank’s funds transfer deadline) and when such execution or error was within the Bank’s sole control, will be for a period not exceeding the lesser of sixty (60) days or the period between the date of the request and the date of actual transfer or error correction, and will be in either of the following forms at the option of the Bank: (i) adjusting your Account balance at the Bank to reflect the average balances that would have resulted had no error occurred; or (ii) reimbursing you an amount equal to accrued interest at the average Federal Funds rate of the Dallas Federal Reserve Bank computed on a daily basis for the period and on the amount in question. In any event, the Bank shall not be liable for any claimed damages arising out of or in connection with a payment order or funds transfer after one year from the date of such payment order or funds transfer.

55.5 RESPONSIBILITY OF BANK:

(i) The Bank shall have no responsibility or liability for any inaccuracy, interruption or delay in transmission or for claims occasioned by any circumstances, unless caused by the Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Bank shall have no responsibility or liability for any claims, damages, interruptions, delays or any other circumstances arising out of an act or failure to act by a third person or entity, beyond the Bank’s reasonable control.

(ii) YOU WILL HOLD THE BANK HARMLESS AND INDEMNIFY THE BANK FOR ANY CLAIMS, DEMANDS, EXPENSES (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ATTORNEY’S FEES AND COSTS), LOSS OR DAMAGE OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER ARISING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY FROM ANY PAYMENT ORDER ISSUED BY YOU PURSUANT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, EXCEPT FOR LIABILITY TO YOU CAUSED BY THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF THE BANK. IN NO EVENT, SHALL THE BANK BE LIABLE FOR, AND YOU HEREBY RELEASE THE BANK AND ITS CORRESPONDENTS AND AGENTS FROM LIABILITY FOR, ANY PUNITIVE, MULTIPLE, STATUTORY, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, EVEN IF THE BANK HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

(iii) You will assume full responsibility for all transfers executed by the Bank in good faith, and in accordance with these procedures, you agree that the Bank shall conclusively be deemed to have acted in good faith if it has followed the transfer procedures set forth in this Agreement, and agrees that the Bank assumes no responsibility beyond its duty to exercise ordinary care.

(iv) The Bank’s liability, if any exists, is discharged to the extent of any payment remitted to beneficiary from any source, including you.

56. BANK ACCOUNT CARD: The Bank Account Card includes the Mastercard Debit Card issued to you in connection with your Account. Subject to the Order of Payment provision above, you and each Authorized Signer agree and acknowledge that any use of a Bank Account Card will immediately reduce the available funds in this Account by at least the amount communicated, electronically or otherwise, to the Bank, whether communicated as a withdrawal, transfer to another account, authorized administrative hold, or as any other transaction. The Bank has an absolute right to rely on the information electronically or otherwise communicated to the Bank regarding any use or attempted use of a Bank Account Card. The Bank has no duty or obligation to make any inquiry regarding the authority of the user or the accuracy of any information communicated to the Bank regarding any the Bank Account Card transaction.

When using your Bank Account Card at some merchants, the merchant may place a hold on the account for a predetermined amount unrelated to the transaction. The hold may immediately reduce the available funds balance in your account. The Bank is not responsible for such holds.

When you use your Bank Account Card at a merchant that settles in currency other than U.S. Dollars, the charge will be converted into the U.S. Dollar amount. The currency conversion rate used to determine the transaction amount in U.S. Dollars is either a foreign government mandated rate or the wholesale market rate in effect the day before the processing date, increased by the margin set forth in the Truth In Savings Disclosure and Fee Schedule.

57. INFORMAL RESOLUTION OF CUSTOMER CONCERNS: Most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer’s satisfaction by contacting Customer Service at:

1-888-534-3509

You and the Bank agree to submit to the dispute resolution and arbitration provisions below in the event you and the Bank are not able to reach an informal resolution through customer service. For consumer disputes regarding Electronic Funds Transfers, please refer to the Regulation E/Electronic Funds Transfers Disclosure for other error resolution procedures that may be available to you.

58. VENUE: You agree that the venue for any judicial action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Agreement or the transactions or services provided pursuant to the Agreement shall be in Bexar County in the State of Texas. Only for consumer accounts belonging to persons who reside in the State of Texas at the time this Agreement is executed, venue for any judicial action or proceeding shall be in the county of the consumer’s residence or the county where the Agreement was signed or accepted. Agreements signed or accepted electronically by residents of states other than Texas and transmitted via the internet are deemed to be signed in the State of Texas in Bexar County.

58. BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.

58.1 SENDING NOTICE OF DISPUTE: If either you or the Bank intend to seek judicial action, such party must first send to the other by certified mail, return receipt requested, a written Notice of Dispute. The Notice of Dispute to the Bank should be addressed to:

P.O. Box 1437
Westerville, OH 43086

The Notice of Dispute must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) explain specifically what relief is sought.

58.2 IF THE DISPUTE IS NOT RESOLVED: Upon receipt of a written Notice of Dispute by you or the Bank, you and the Bank agree to negotiate in good faith to resolve your dispute in accordance with this Agreement and applicable by law. You agree to make yourself reasonably available by phone or in person in order to provide information related to the dispute. You agree to provide to us and to law enforcement or other governmental authorities with additional information as may be needed from time to time in order to complete any investigation requested by you, the Bank, or governmental authorities. If you and the Bank do not reach an Agreement to resolve the claim or dispute within ninety (90) days after the Notice of Dispute is received, you or the Bank may commence a judicial proceeding.

59. MISCELLANEOUS

59.1 OTHER CLAIMS AND DISPUTES CONCERNING THE ACCOUNT: If any person or entity makes a claim against any funds in this Account, or if the Bank has reason to believe that there is or may be a dispute over matters such as the ownership of this Account or any or all funds on deposit therein, or regarding the authority to transact any banking business regarding this Account, the Bank may, in its sole and absolute discretion, take one or more of the following actions: (i) continue to rely on and recognize any authority provided in any of the Deposit Account Agreements, entity or corporate resolutions provided by you, or other Account documents; (ii) freeze all or part of the funds in this Account until the dispute is resolved to the Bank’s satisfaction and any and all documents deemed necessary by the Bank to resolve the dispute or protect the Bank are executed and delivered to the Bank, or (iii) interplead the Account funds or any portion thereof into an appropriate court of law or arbitration proceeding for resolution of such claims and distribution of the funds, after deduction of the Bank’s reasonable attorney’s fees and costs, and the exercise of its right to setoff and foreclosure of its security interest.

59.2 TAXES CHARGED: You agree to pay, and this Account is subject to, any tax charged by any governmental entity on any services rendered by the Bank.

59.3 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNMENTS: This Agreement is binding on each of the Authorized Signers and each of their personal representatives, executors, administrators, and heirs, and on each’s successors and assigns, if any. The benefits and responsibilities of the Bank under this Agreement shall also transfer to and shall be binding upon the Bank’s successors and assigns. You may not transfer or assign this Account or any of the rights and obligations of this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Bank.

59.4 POWER OF ATTORNEY: If you wish to designate an attorney in fact, the Bank may request a certification from the attorney in fact to assure its validity. If the Bank recognizes a power of attorney, the Bank may continue to recognize such authority until the Bank receives written notice of revocation, signed by you, whether or not such power of attorney provides other methods of revocation. Notice will be effective after a reasonable time after the Bank has received and acknowledged such notice and has had the opportunity to act upon it.

59.5 DEATH OR INCAPACITY: You agree to notify the Bank promptly if any person with a right to withdraw funds from your Account dies or becomes legally incapacitated. The Bank may continue to honor your checks, items, and instructions until: (1) the Bank knows of your death or incapacity, and (2) the Bank has had a reasonable opportunity to act on that knowledge. Unless ordered to stop payment by someone claiming an interest in the account, the Bank may pay or certify checks drawn on or before the date of death or legal incapacity for up to ten (10) days after it knows of such death or legal incapacity.

59.6 NO ILLEGAL TRANSACTIONS: This Account and any ATM, debit card and/or the Bank Account Card issued by the Bank may be used for legal transactions only.

59.7 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.

59.8 UNLAWFUL INTERNET GAMBLING ENFORCEMENT ACT (UIGEA) OF 2006: The UIGEA, signed into law in 2006, prohibits any person engaged in the business of betting or wagering (as defined in the UIGEA) from knowingly accepting payments in connection with the participation of another person in unlawful internet gambling. You represent and agree that you will comply with the UIGEA and relevant regulations. You are prohibited from processing illegal gambling transactions through your Account or your relationship with the Bank will be terminated.

59.9 IMPRACTICABILITY OF PERFORMANCE: The Bank shall be excused from failing to act or any delay in acting caused by interruption of transmission or communication facilities, act of God, fire, terrorism, flood, equipment failure, war, emergency conditions, any act or failure to act by a third party or entity, or any other circumstances beyond the Bank’s reasonable control.

59.10 GENERAL PROVISIONS: If any section, provision, term or condition of this Agreement is deemed invalid or unenforceable, the enforceability of all remaining provisions shall not be affected.

English is the controlling language of the relationship between you and the Bank. The Bank may translate its forms, disclosures, and advertisements into another language for your convenience. However, if there is a discrepancy between the Bank’s English language materials and the materials provided in another language, the English language version is conclusively deemed to be controlling, unless there is a governing Texas or federal law, rule or regulation that specifically provides for a different result.

59.11 GOVERNING LAW: This Agreement shall be governed and interpreted in accordance with all applicable federal laws and the laws of the State of Texas. In addition, it is subject to applicable clearinghouse rules and regulations. If, any document related to any transaction between the Bank, you or any Authorized Signer, including this Agreement, or any terms or provisions of such document are in conflict with applicable laws, then such document shall be automatically reformed and modified as to comply with applicable law, without the necessity of execution of any amendment or new document. The Bank is under no duty to act on instructions or requests, which the Bank reasonably believes may cause the Bank to be exposed to any civil or criminal liability.

59.12 SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION: The Bank is authorized to accept as valid and correct and to rely on any and all documents and records presented in connection with the opening and closing of or conducting any transaction(s) on this Account and is not obligated to determine if actual authority exists for any person to act on behalf of you.

59.13 RULES OF CONSTRUCTION: Section titles are for convenience only and are not to be construed as part of this Agreement or as a limitation on a particular section to which they refer.

Unless it would be inconsistent to do so, words and phrases used in this Agreement should be construed so that the singular includes the plural and the plural includes the singular. Unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing, the Bank’s relationship with you will be that of debtor and creditor. No fiduciary, quasi-fiduciary or other special relationship exists between you and the Bank.

59.14 NO ORAL REPRESENTATIONS/ENTIRE AGREEMENT:

(a) You expressly represent and warrant that you did not rely on any representation, promise or other statement of the Bank or its agents and employees relating to this Agreement or the subject matter thereof, except as expressly set forth herein, and it is your express intent to fully disclaim and disavow reliance on any such representation, promise or other statement.

(b) This Agreement contains the entire, complete and final agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior written or oral discussions, negotiations, representations, warranties and agreements, if any, between them with respect to the subject matter hereof, except as may be expressly stated herein.

59.17 INDEMNITY: YOU AND EACH AUTHORIZED SIGNER AGREE TO INDEMNIFY THE BANK AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, AGENTS, AND EMPLOYEES (AND THEIR SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, AGENTS, AND EMPLOYEES) (TOGETHER THE “INDEMNIFIED PARTIES”) AGAINST ANY LOSS, LIABILITY, OR EXPENSE, INCLUDING ITS ATTORNEY’S FEES, COSTS AND EXPENSES, RESULTING FROM OR ARISING OUT OF ANY ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF THE BANK AUTHORIZED BY THIS AGREEMENT, ANY BREACH OF ANY OF YOUR OR AUTHORIZED SIGNER’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES SET FORTH HEREIN, OR ANY BREACH OF ANY OTHER OBLIGATION OF ANY OF YOURS OR OF AN AUTHORIZED SIGNER. YOU AND EACH AUTHORIZED SIGNER FURTHER AGREE TO INDEMNIFY THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES AGAINST ANY LOSS, LIABILITY, AND EXPENSE, INCLUDING ATTORNEY’S FEES, COSTS, AND EXPENSES, RESULTING FROM OR ARISING OUT OF ANY CLAIM OF ANY PERSON THAT BANK IS RESPONSIBLE TO, OR FOR ANY ACT OR OMISSION MADE BY YOU OR AN AUTHORIZED SIGNER.

59.18 NO WAIVER: If the Bank fails to exercise any right of the Bank under this Agreement or has failed to require strict compliance with this Agreement or any part thereof, or has failed to declare to breach of this Agreement, the Bank’s prior failures to act are not a waiver of the Bank’s rights or privileges under this Agreement, and the Bank may exercise such right and may insist on strict compliance and full enforcement in the future.

59.19 JURY TRIAL WAIVER: THE ACCOUNT OWNER AND THE BANK, FOR THEMSELVES AND EACH OF THEIR RELATED ENTITIES, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS, HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ALL DISPUTES, CONTROVERSIES AND CLAIMS BY, BETWEEN OR AGAINST EITHER THE ACCOUNT OWNER OR THE BANK THAT ARISE OUT OF OR RELATE TO THIS AGREEMENT.

60.

We will verify your identity and the authenticity of any order request or instruction initiated through Online Banking by the user’s presentation of valid login credentials, which include your User ID and Password. DO NOT GIVE YOUR USER ID OR PASSWORD TO ANOTHER PERSON. You acknowledge and understand that any person presenting valid login credentials as described in this section will be deemed to be you.

25. External Transfers

Sections 25-33 apply only to External Transfers.

You may use our External Transfer service to electronically transfer funds from an eligible checking or savings account at the Bank (an “Eligible Account”) to a checking or savings account that is owned by you at another financial institution (an “External Account”). An “External Financial Institution” is a financial institution other than TransPecos Banks, SSB. Each transfer that the Customer makes to an External Account at another institution is called an “External Transfer.” The services described herein are called the “Service.”

We may change the types of accounts that may be used to make an External Transfer or the types of transfers that can be made using the Service at any time without notice.
26. Authorization and Warranties.
External Transfers may only be made to or from an External Account of which the Customer is an owner and for which Customer has the authority and rights to authorize such transfers. The Customer (a) represents and warrants that the Customer is an owner of any External Account that the Customer enrolls; (b) that the Customer has the authority to make External Transfers to and from the External Account without the joinder of any other party to that account; and (c) the Customer authorizes the Bank to initiate debit and credit transactions on the External Account and on the Customer’s accounts with the Bank based on instructions given to the Bank, including, but not limited to, instructions entered through the Bank’s online banking system. The Customer additionally authorizes the Bank to take any action necessary to correct any External Transfer errors identified by the Bank.
Customer’s authorizations to the Bank regarding any External Account will remain in full force until this Agreement is terminated.
27. Enrollment of an External Account.
The Customer will need to enroll an External Account before the Customer can transfer funds to or from that External Account. To “enroll” an External Account, the Customer must provide the following information regarding that External Account: account number, ABA Routing and Transit number for the external financial institution, the name of the external financial institution, and whether the External Account is a checking or savings account. By enrolling an External Account, the Customer Authorizes the Bank to make a series of small transactions (“Micro-Deposits”) that a user of that External Account must verify. The owner of the External Account must verify the amounts of the Micro-Deposits before the Bank will approve External Transfers activity to or from the External Account. The Bank reserves the right to reject an enrollment request for any reason, including, without limitation, potential fraud or misuse, based on limitations as outlined by the United States Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, or an incomplete enrollment.

Not all types of accounts are eligible for ACH transfers. The Customer may be subject to penalties by the External Financial Institution, or may suffer negative tax consequences, for certain transactions involving retirement (401k, IRA, etc.), savings, money market accounts, certificates of deposit, trusts, loans, custodial, business, corporate and other types of accounts. It is the Customer’s responsibility to verify with the External Account owner and the External Financial Institution any restrictions regarding transfers to any External Account that the Customer enrolls. THE BANK IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, PENALTIES, FEES OR OTHER LIABILITY RESULTING FROM EXTERNAL TRANSFERS THAT ARE NOT PERMITTED BY EXTERNAL FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS OR APPLICABLE LAWS AND REGULATIONS.

All External Transfers are subject to the rules and regulations of the External Financial Institution. The Customer agrees not to transfer any funds to or from an External Account where that transaction would not be allowed under the External Financial Institution’s restrictions, the Customer’s agreements with External Financial Institution, or under any applicable laws or regulations. The Customer agrees to obtain any and all permissions required by the External Financial Institution or External Account owner prior to transferring funds to an External Account.
28. External Account Number Policy.
The Bank may, but has no obligation to, validate any External Account number or routing number that the Customer provides in the enrollment process. It is the Customer’s responsibility to ensure that the Customer enters a valid and correct External Account number and routing number. The Bank may rely entirely on the account numbers the Customer provides for purposes of making External Transfers, even if the name of the owner or name of the financial institution associated with the External Account number does not match the name provided by the Customer. External Transfers sent to invalid or incorrect account numbers may not be recoverable. IF THE CUSTOMER PROVIDES AN INVALID OR INCORRECT EXTERNAL ACCOUNT NUMBER OR ROUTING NUMBER, THE BANK WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR RETURNING FUNDS DUE TO AN UNRECOVERABLE EXTERNAL TRANSFER.
29. Transferring to an External Account.
When the Customer places an order for an External Transfer, the Bank will place a hold on funds in the Customer’s account. The hold will be effective on the scheduled date of the transaction and will be for an amount sufficient to honor the requested transaction. The hold will remain in effect until the funds are sent and the transaction is posted.

The Bank may, but is not required to, honor External Transfer orders in excess of the collected funds in the Customer’s Eligible Account. If the Customer’s Eligible Account has insufficient funds to cover an External Transfer order, the Bank may, at its sole discretion take one or more of the following actions:
● Honor the funds transfer under the terms of any Bank overdraft protection plan the Customer has established with the Bank, if applicable;
● Honor the funds transfer and create an overdraft in the Customer’s Eligible Account;
● Hold balances in the Customer’s other Bank accounts until the overdraft is paid; or
● Refuse to honor the funds transfer.
Fees may apply to any of the above remedies. Please refer to the Customer’s Deposit Account Agreement and Truth in Savings Disclosure and Fee Schedule for additional details. If any External Transfers are returned to the Bank for any reason, the Bank will return the funds, within a reasonable time, to the Customer’s Eligible Account.
30. Transferring from an External Account.
An External Transfer from an External Account is subject to the rules and regulations of the External Financial Institution holding the account. If any External Transfer from an External Account is rejected or returned, the Customer authorizes the Bank to collect from any of the Customer’s accounts with the Bank or from any overdraft protection line of credit sufficient funds to cover the transaction. Overdraft, non-sufficient fund, or other transaction fees will apply as with other return transactions. If funds are not available from any of the Customer’s accounts, the Customer agrees to promptly reimburse the Bank for the amount of the return along with applicable service fees, accrued interest, collection fees, and/or legal fees.
31. Transfer Timing and Settlement.
External Transfers generally take between one and three Business Days to settle. External Transfers requests not submitted prior to 5:00 p.m., CST, on a business day will be deemed to have been received on the following business day.
32. Canceling External Transfers.
The Bank may, but is not obligated to, honor the Customer’s request to cancel an External Transfer. Additionally, the Bank is unable to honor a request to cancel submitted less than one business day prior to the scheduled transaction processing date. Cancellation requests may be submitted through the Bank’s Online Banking system, by calling 1-888-534-3509, emailing support@bankmd.com, or writing to the Bank at the address below.

33. Transfer Limits.
The Bank may refuse to honor any External Transfer, at any time for any or no reason, including but not limited to: written or verbal notice from other apparent owners of the External Account; overdrafts, unrecoverable rejects, or returns from the External Financial Institution; or possible fraud or illegal use. THE BANK IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, PENALTIES, FEES OR OTHER LIABILITY RESULTING FROM THE BANK’S REFUSAL TO HONOR AN EXTERNAL TRANSFER FOR ANY REASON, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE CUSTOMER’S EXCEEDING THE BANK’S EXTERNAL TRANSFER LIMITS.

51. Information Regarding MRDC Transactions.
For the purposes of this section and other provisions relating to the MRDC Service, any capitalized term not otherwise defined herein has the definition ascribed to it under the Check 21 Act. If you have met, in our sole discretion, the conditions we have established for use of MRDC to make deposits via electronic images, we will provide for acceptance for deposit to your account(s) the electronic images of Original Checks for collection as allowed under this Online Banking Agreement and the Deposit Account Agreement.
52. Representations and Warranties.
By depositing electronic images with the Bank via the MRDC Services, you give us the same warranties and indemnities that we, as a reconverting bank, would give under applicable law or regulation. You understand and acknowledge that all of the warranties deemed given by a depositor of a check to a bank under the Uniform Commercial Code, as adopted by the State of Texas (“Texas UCC”), shall also apply to any electronic image of an Original Check the same as if such electronic image or Substitute Check were a paper check within the meaning of the Texas UCC. Accordingly, except to the extent that any warranties deemed given under the Texas UCC are expressly superseded by the Check 21 Act or the Check 21 regulations, you understand that you are deemed to give us all the same warranties you would have given under the Texas UCC for the deposit of an Original Check by transferring to us: (a) any Substitute Check; (b) an IRD or other item purporting to be a Substitute Check; or (c) any electronic image that purports to contain a Sufficient Copy of an Original Check or a Substitute Check.
Such warranties also include the following two (2) specific warranties regarding transfer and presentment:
● You warrant that the electronic image we convert to a Substitute Check meets the requirements described in Check 21 Regulation (found at 12 CFR §229.51(a)(1) – (2) and as amended from time to time) for legal equivalence
● And your warranty given above is deemed given to us and any other person, company or bank to which we transfer, present or return any of the Images included in such electronic file as a Sufficient Image Copy or that purports to be a Sufficient Image Copy created by bank or any subsequent bank receiving a copy of such image.
The Customer represents that it shall permit no third parties to use the MRDC Service to deposit Original Checks to the Customer’s account.

With respect to each and every Personal MRDC deposit initiated by you, you represent and warrant to the Bank and agree that you shall perform your obligations under this Online Banking Agreement in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations, including the sanctions laws administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) and the Bank Secrecy Act.
53. Prohibited Transactions.
The Customer agrees not to use the MRDC Service to deposit or otherwise process: (i) non-cash items; (ii) items drawn on foreign banks or payable in other than U.S. money; (iii) items without pre-printed magnetic ink routing numbers; (iv) items for which Customer is not a holder in due course; (v) Substitute Checks, except those which have been returned to Customer for any reason; (vi) items payable to any person or entity other than Customer (i.e. no third-party deposits); (vii) items containing apparent alterations to any of the information on the front of the check or item, or which you know or suspect (or should know or suspect) are fraudulent or otherwise not authorized by the owner of the account on which the check or item is drawn; (viii) items dated more than six months prior to the date of deposit; (ix) items prohibited by Bank’s current procedures relating to the Mobile Banking Services or which are not acceptable under this Agreement; (x) Original Checks or other items previously converted to a Substitute Check; (xi) checks or items that are Remotely Created Checks (as defined in the Federal Reserve Board’s Regulation CC).
54. Processing of MRDC Deposits.
The Customer shall submit check images to the Bank in such format, and with such associated check information, as the Bank may require periodically, utilizing Accredited Standards Committee X9’s Specifications for Electronic Exchange of Check and Image Data (DSTU X9.37-2003) and in conformance with the requirements of the Bank’s Mobile Banking Services. The Bank reserves the right to reject any single check image or group of check images for any reason, before or after it/they appear on the Bank’s system. All checks submitted through the MRDC Service must be properly endorsed by the Customer prior to transmittal. Items transmitted without being properly endorsed are subject to rejection by the Bank. The Customer warrants the following: (i) the check image is an accurate representation of the information contained in the Original Check, and the check image includes all endorsements from the Original Check; (ii) each check image contains a record of all MICR line information required for a Substitute Check, and the check image satisfies all of the requirements of the Check 21 Act and Regulation CC; (iii) the Original Check, a duplicate check image, or any copy of the Original Check or check image will not be deposited by the Customer with the Bank; and (iv) the Original Check, a duplicate check image, or any copy of the Original Check or check image will not be presented, transferred or returned such that the Bank or any other person will be asked to make a payment based on a check or check image that has already been paid. The Bank has no responsibility or liability for any fees incurred due to the rejection of transmitted items for missing/incomplete endorsements. Unless the Bank notifies Customer otherwise, the Bank provides same day credit to the applicable account for all items transmitted by the Customer and received by the Bank within the timelines established by the Bank.

Should a Drawee Financial Institution return an item to us unpaid, we will charge your respective account for such returned item and may either (i) return the item to you, or (ii) re-present it to the Drawee Financial Institution before returning it to you. Items may be returned as Image Exchange Items, rather than Substitute Checks. Should a Drawee Financial Institution or other third party makes a claim against us or seek re-credit with respect to any electronic image, we may provisionally freeze or hold aside a like amount in your account pending investigation and resolution of the claim.
The Customer shall have no right to cancel or amend any deposit after its receipt by the Bank. However, if such request complies with the security procedures, the Bank may use reasonable efforts to act on a request by the Customer for cancellation of a deposit prior to transmitting it to the Federal Reserve but shall have no liability if such cancellation is not implemented. The Customer shall reimburse the Bank for any expenses, losses, or damages the Bank may incur in implementing or attempting to implement the Customer’s request for the reversal of a deposit.
55. Retention and Security of Original Checks.
The Customer shall retain physical checks that represent the deposit for no longer than (30) days following the date of their transmittal to the Bank and agrees to make the originals available to the Bank within seventy-two (72) hours of the Bank’s request for fraud control purposes. Such checks must be securely stored, to prevent unauthorized access to the items until they are destroyed (locked cabinet, etc.). You understand that in all cases you are solely responsible for safeguarding all items you retain, during the reasonable period of time described above from destruction, alteration or theft. Items are to be securely destroyed in a commercially reasonable manner that renders the items unusable or otherwise unreadable (shredding) on the thirty-first (31st) day following the date of the deposit. Prior to deposit, the Customer shall endorse all MRDC deposit items “for deposit only” in the endorsement area on the reverse side of the item. After depositing an item via MRDC, Customer agrees to write or mark “Mobile Deposit on [Deposit Date]” on the face of the item using the date of the deposit. The Customer understands that in all cases it is solely responsible for safeguarding all such images from destruction, alteration or theft in accordance with the provisions of this Online Banking Agreement. The Customer will use commercially reasonable methods to destroy the Original Checks after the required retention time has expired to render them unusable or otherwise unreadable. The Customer will cooperate with the Bank in providing information and access to Customer records in the event of lost, mistaken, incomplete, or unusable electronic images, or in the event of claims of fraud, alteration, counterfeit or otherwise. The Customer may not perform the MRDC Service for any third party, and any attempt to do so shall automatically terminate the Customer’s right to use MRDC.
56. Your Ability to Withdraw Funds.
These provisions apply only to demand deposit checking accounts where deposits are made via the Bank’s MRDC Services. You agree that electronic images submitted via the Bank’s MRDC Services from your mobile device are not subject to the funds availability requirements of the Federal Reserve Board’s Regulation CC. Our policy is to generally make funds from your personal MRDC Services available to you on the first Business Day after the day we receive your deposit. Funds that are deposited using the Bank’s MRDC Services will not be deemed “received” by us until we have received an electronic image that meets all of the requirements for deposits (including all requirements to create a Substitute Check) stated in this Online Banking Agreement and in any related documentation. Once the funds are available, you can withdraw the funds in cash and we will use the funds to pay items and transactions drawn on your account. For determining the availability of your deposits, every day is a business day, except Saturdays, Sundays, and federal holidays.
57. Longer Delays May Apply.
In some cases, we will not make all of the funds that you deposit via the MRDC Service available to you on the first Business Day after the day of your deposit. Depending on the type of check you deposit, funds may not be available until the second business day after the day of your deposit. The first $200 of your MRDC Service deposits, however, will 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 generally notify you at the time you make your deposit. The Bank will also attempt to tell you when the funds will be available. If you will need the funds from a deposit via the MRDC Services, you should contact us to inquire when the funds will be available.

In addition, funds you deposit via the MRDC Service may be delayed for a longer period for a variety of additional reasons as determined in the Bank’s sole discretion, including, but not limited to:
● We believe a check you deposit will not be paid
● We believe a check you deposit is a duplicate image
● You deposit checks totaling more than any applicable transaction limit or other limitations that the Bank may impose
● 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 exercise our rights to investigate any unusual or suspicious MRDC items as determined in Bank’s sole discretion
58. Customer Representation and Agreements; Indemnity.
With respect to each and every deposit initiated by the Customer, the Customer represents and warrants to Bank and agrees that to the best of the Customer’s knowledge: (a) each deposit is made payable to the Customer (b) any necessary authorization is operative at the time of transmittal or crediting/debiting by the Bank as provided herein, and (c) the Customer shall perform its obligations under this Online Banking Agreement in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations, including the sanctions laws administered by OFAC. In addition to other indemnification under this Online Banking Agreement, Customer also shall indemnify the Bank against any loss, liability, or expense (including attorney’s fees and expenses) resulting from or arising out of any breach of any of the foregoing representations or agreements.
59. Limitation on Liability.
In addition to the provisions contained in the Agreement, liability shall not exceed the sum of the amount of any actual loss suffered by the Customer as a result of a breach of warranties under Regulation CC (12 CFR Part 229) up to the amount of any substitute check, interest and expenses (including costs and reasonable attorney fees and other expenses of presentation) related to the substitute check reduced by any amount the Customer receives and retains as a re-credit. Furthermore, such liability shall be further reduced by the amount of any damages incurred as a result of the negligence or bad faith of the Customer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions, the Bank shall be excused from failing to act or delay in acting if such failure or delay is caused by legal constraints, interruption of transmission of communication facilities, equipment failure, war, emergency conditions, or other circumstances beyond the Bank’s control.

FUNDS AVAILABILITY POLICY

For purposes of this policy, the following terms shall be defined as follows:
● “account” means a deposit account or accounts you open with BankMD.
● “you,” “your,” and “yours,” mean the owner or owners of the account.
● “BankMD”, “the Bank” “we,” “our”, or “us” shall mean BankMD, a Division of TransPecos Banks, SSB.
The terms of this policy are incorporated with and made a part of your Deposit Account Agreement with us. If the terms and conditions of this policy, including any subsequent policies, conflict with the terms and conditions contained in any other agreement between the Bank and you, the terms and conditions of this policy shall be controlling with respect to funds availability matters to the extent of the conflict.

Your Ability to Withdraw Funds

We will generally make funds from your mobile check deposits available to you on the business day after we receive your deposit. Electronic ACH direct deposits will be available on the day we receive deposit instructions. Once the funds are available, you may withdraw the funds in cash, and we may use the funds to pay checks that you have written. We will not accept cash, check, or other deposits by mail. Deposits must be made by mobile deposit capture, direct deposit, ACH transfer, wire transfer, external transfer, peer to peer payment, or other acceptable electronic means. If you attempt to make a deposit by mail, we will return the deposit to you at the address we have on file for you.

Longer Delays May Apply

In some cases, we may not make all of the funds that you deposited available on the first business day after your deposit. Funds may not be available until the second business day after the day of your deposit. The first $200 of your deposits, however, will be available on the first business day after the date of deposit.

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 send you an electronic notice 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.

Exception Holds: Funds you deposit by check may be delayed for up to the 7th business day after the day of your deposit 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.

Holds on Other Funds

If we cash a check for you that is drawn on another financial institution, 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 financial institution, 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.

Deposits at Automated Teller Machines

BankMD does not operate ATMs that accept deposits by cash, check, or other physical instrument. BankMD may accept deposits through the MoneyPass ATM network. Not all MoneyPass ATMs support deposit functions. Deposits at MoneyPass ATMs will generally be made available on the day of deposit or on the first business day after the date of deposit. If you make a deposit on a day that we are not open, we may deem the deposit as received on the next business day we are open. ATM deposits are subject to holds as described above.

Cash Withdrawal Limitation

We place certain limitations on withdrawals in cash. In general, $200 of a deposit is available for withdrawal in cash on the first business day after the day of deposit. Thereafter, any amount of the deposit over $200, up to $400, is available for cash withdrawal on the second business day after the day of the deposit.

For your checking account, point of sale “POS” withdrawals are limited to $1,000.00 per day and ATM withdrawals are limited to 5 per day.

Business Days and Cut-off Times

For determining the availability of your deposits, business days are Monday through Friday, excluding federal holidays. If you make a deposit after 3:00 p.m. CST on a business day, your deposit will be deemed to be received on the following business day.

International Transactions

Checks drawn on financial institutions located outside the U.S. (foreign checks) cannot be processed the same as checks drawn on U.S. financial institutions. Foreign checks are exempt from the policies outlined in this disclosure. Generally, the availability of funds for deposits of foreign checks will be delayed for the time it takes us to collect the funds from the financial institutions upon which it is drawn.

International ACH transactions, international wire transactions, or other international electronic transactions may be identified and designated for review and examination under the Office of Foreign Assets Control Rules (OFAC Rules). You acknowledge that settlement of an international transaction may be indefinitely delayed, suspended, or terminated under applicable OFAC Rules.

We may, in our sole discretion, refuse to receive, issue, or otherwise process foreign checks, international ACH transactions, and international wire transactions.

Substitute Checks and Your Rights-Important Information About Your Checking Account

What Is a Substitute Check?

To make check processing faster, federal law permits financial institutions to replace original checks with “substitute checks.” These checks are similar in size to original checks with a slightly reduced image of the front and back of the original check. The front of a substitute check states: “This is a legal copy of your check. You can use it the same way you would use the original check.” You may use a substitute check as proof of payment just like the original check.

Some or all of the checks that you receive back from us may be substitute checks. This notice describes rights you have when you receive substitute checks from us. The rights in this notice do not apply to original checks or to electronic debits to your account. However, you have rights under other law with respect to those transactions.

What Are My Rights Regarding Substitute Checks?

In certain cases, federal law provides a special procedure that allows you to request a refund for losses you suffer if a substitute check is posted to your account (for example, if you think that we withdrew the wrong amount from your account or that we withdrew money from your account more than once for the same check). The losses you may attempt to recover under this procedure may include the amount that was withdrawn from your account and fees that were charged as a result of the withdrawal (for example, bounced check fees).

The amount of your refund under this procedure is limited to the amount of your loss or the amount of the substitute check, whichever is less. You also are entitled to interest on the amount of your refund if your account is an interest-bearing account. If your loss exceeds the amount of the substitute check, you may be able to recover additional amounts under other law.

If you use this procedure, you may receive up to $2,500 of your refund (plus interest if your account earns interest) within 10 business days after we received your claim and the remainder of your refund (plus interest if your account earns interest) not later than 45 calendar days after we received your claim.

We may reverse the refund (including any interest on the refund) if we later are able to demonstrate that the substitute check was correctly posted to your account.

How Do I Make a Claim for a Refund?

If you believe that you have suffered a loss relating to a substitute check that you received and that was posted to your account, please contact us at P.O. Box 1437, Westerville, OH 43086, 1-888-534-3509. You must contact us within 60 calendar days of the date that we mailed (or otherwise delivered by a means to which you agreed) the substitute check in question or the account statement showing that the substitute check was posted to your account, whichever is later. We will extend this time period if you were not able to make a timely claim because of extraordinary circumstances.

Your claim must include –

• A description of why you have suffered a loss (for example, you think the amount withdrawn was incorrect);
• An estimate of the amount of your loss;
• An explanation of why the substitute check you received is insufficient to confirm that you suffered a loss; and
A copy of the substitute check and the following information to help us identify the substitute check: identifying information, for example the check number, the name of the person to whom you wrote the check, the amount of the check.

Special Rules for Liability for Unauthorized Mastercard Debit Card Transactions

The following limitations may be applicable to your accounts, except as provided by law:

The zero-liability limit described below only applies to Mastercard consumer debit cards or certain Mastercard small business cards that are issued in the United States for transactions processed through a Mastercard network. The zero-liability limit described below may not apply to: (a) other types of Mastercard commercial debit cards that are not Mastercard small business cards; (b) transactions that are not processed through a Mastercard network; and (c) ATM transactions which are not sent over Mastercard networks.

Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your Mastercard debit card has been lost or stolen or if you believe any unauthorized transactions have been made using your Mastercard debit card. Your liability for unauthorized Mastercard debit card transactions that are processed through a Mastercard network may be zero dollars ($0.00), provided you exercise reasonable care in safeguarding your debit card from risk of loss or theft and, upon becoming aware of such loss or theft, promptly report the loss or theft to us.

To notify us of lost or stolen cards, or of unauthorized transactions, call us immediately or call us and then write to us at the telephone number or address set forth in the Liability for Unauthorized Transfers paragraph below. This will help prevent unauthorized access to your account and minimize any inconvenience.

Liability for Unauthorized Transfers.

Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your debit card, PIN, or login information 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. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. You could lose all the money in your account. If you tell us within 2 business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your debit card, PIN, or login information; you can lose no more than $50 if someone used your debit card, PIN, or login information without your permission.

If you do NOT tell us within 2 business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your debit card, PIN, or login information, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your debit card, PIN, or login information 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.

If you believe your debit card, PIN, or login information has been lost or stolen, call: 1-888-534-3509 and then write: BankMD Cardmember Services P.O. Box 1437 Westerville, OH 43086.

You should also call the number and write to the address listed above if you believe a transfer has been made using the information from your check without your permission.

Documentation

Periodic Statement. You will get a monthly account statement from us, unless there are no transactions in a particular month. In any case you will get a statement quarterly. In some cases, we may send you a monthly statement, regardless whether there were transactions in a given month.

Terminal Receipt. You can get a receipt at the time you make a transfer to or from your account using an ATM or a POS terminal. However, receipts for transactions of $15.00 or less may not always be available.

Direct Deposits. If you have arranged to have direct deposits made to your account at least once every sixty (60) days from the same person or company, you can call us at 1-888-534-3509 to find out whether or not the deposit has been made.

Our 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 the money in your account is subject to legal process or other claim restricting such transfer.
● If the ATM 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 transaction, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken.
● There may be other exceptions stated in our agreement with you.
In Case of Errors or Questions About Your Electronic Transfers.

Telephone us at 1-888-534-3509 or email us via Online Banking 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 after we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your account within 10 business days 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.

For errors involving new accounts, point-of-sale, or foreign-initiated transactions, we may take up to 90 days to investigate your complaint or question. For new accounts, we may take up to 20 business days to credit your account for the amount you think is in error.

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.

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’s how:

Call us at 1-888-534-3509, or email us through Online Banking, 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.

Notice of varying amounts. If these regular payments may vary in amount, we 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.

Other Provisions. There may be a delay between the time a deposit is made and when it will be available for withdrawal.

ATM SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Please use common sense and judgment when approaching and using an ATM. The following is a list of safety precautions you should take when visiting and using an ATM machine:
● Conduct your automated banking in a public, well-lit location that is free of shrubbery and decorative partitions or dividers.
● Maintain an awareness of your surroundings throughout the entire transaction. Be aware of:
○ Anyone trying to help you with an ATM transaction.
○ Anyone trying to look over your shoulder as you enter your PIN.
○ Anyone sitting in a parked car nearby.
● For outdoor terminals, be aware of your environmental surroundings and be cautious of complicated weather conditions such as fog, rain, snow, sand or dust storms, or other similar conditions.
● Check the ATM for signs of tampering or the placement of card number skimming devices.
● If you see or become aware of suspicious conditions or persons near the ATM, do not initiate a transaction at the ATM and leave. If you have begun a transaction, cancel the transaction, do not enter your PIN, and take your card and leave.
● Prevent others from seeing you enter your PIN by using your body to shield their view.
● Treat your card like cash. Don’t lend your debit card to anyone. If your card has a chip, keep it in a security envelope or wallet that prevents near field communications readers from reading the information contained in the chip.
● For online transactions, after completing online purchases with your card or card number, you should log out of the site through which the purchase was made and close the browser window.
● Do not give your card number to any person over the phone unless you are conducting a transaction with a reputable merchant with which you are familiar.
● Don’t leave your card at the ATM. Do not leave any receipts or documents at an ATM or night deposit facility.
● Always memorize your PIN; never write it on the back of your card. Do not re-enter your PIN if the ATM eats your card, please contact a Bank representative.
● Never count your cash at the ATM or in public. Wait until you are in your car or another secure place. Refrain from displaying cash in public.
● When using a drive-up ATM, keep your engine running, your doors locked and leave enough room to maneuver between your car and the one ahead of you in the drive-up line.
● Closely monitor your bank statements, as well as your balances, and compare ATM receipts against your monthly statement. Immediately report any problems or discrepancies to a Bank representative.
● If you lose your card or if it is stolen, promptly notify us. You should consult the other disclosures you have received about electronic fund transfers for additional information about what to do if your card is lost or stolen.
Please report any unsafe conditions at an ATM to the operator. Please report any suspicious activity or crimes to both the operator of the facility and the local law enforcement officials immediately.
