AGREEMENT
AND DISCLOSURE FOR ELECTRONIC FUND TRANSFERS
1. Coverage. You have requested that we permit you to access
an electronic funds transfer system and (if applicable) that
we Issue you an automated teller card, debit card, code or other
device ("Card"). By requesting, receiving, signing,
using, authorizing another to use or otherwise accepting the
Card (including any replacement or substitute Card) or the electronic
funds transfer system, you and any authorized users, agree to
be bound by this Agreement. The electronic funds transfer system
and the Card are collectively referred to in this Agreement
as the "EFT System." This Agreement applies to all
persons that are party to the accounts that are accessed through
the EFT system. Every person who owns or is authorized to use
the accounts is responsible for the: use of the EFT System.
In this Agreement, the terms "you" and "your"
refer to each party to the account and to each authorized user,
and the terms "us," "we," and "our"
refer to the Bank. Transactions and accounts governed by this
Agreement are also subject to applicable federal and Wisconsin
laws and regulations and any other rules or agreements governing
or referring to the transactions or accounts, including but
not limited to account agreements, debit card rules, funds availability
rules, depository agreements and the Operating Rules of the
National Automated Clearing House Association. Except as may
be specifically indicated in this Agreement, in cases of inconsistency
or conflict between the other rules or agreements and this Agreement,
this Agreement shall control.
You authorize us to charge your account(s) for all authorized
transactions resulting from the use of the EFT System or resulting
from any other authorized transfers and you assume all responsibility
and liability for all such transactions. All deposits, payments
and transfers made through the use of the EFT System or by any
other authorized transfer are subject to proof and verification
by us. Deposits made after our cutoff time will be credited
the following business day.
2. Authorized Use of Card and PIN. We will issue one or more
personal identification number(s) ("PIN") to you for
use in connection with the EFT System. You agree not to disclose
the PIN to anyone other than authorized users of the EFT System.
If anyone uses your Card or PIN with your permission, you will
be responsible for any charges made to the account. You agree
to safely keep the Card and PIN, not to record the PIN on the
Card or otherwise disclose or make it available to anyone other
than an authorized user, and to use the Card and PIN only at
terminals that accept the Card and as instructed. Never enter
the PIN in any terminal that does not look genuine, has a suspicious
device attached, or is operating in a suspicious manner.
3. Liability Disclosure. Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your
Card or PIN has been lost or stolen or if you believe there
have been unauthorized transfers to or from your account 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 can
lose no more than $50 if someone used your Card and PIN without
your permission to obtain money, property or services through
an automatic teller machine or point of sale terminal, and in
the case of Visa@ or MasterCard@ debit cards, your liability
may be less pursuant to applicable Visa or MasterCard debit
card rules. If there was any other unauthorized electronic funds
transfer or series of transfers using the Card and if you tell
us within two business days after you learn of the loss or theft
of your Card, you can lose no more than $ 0.00 if someone used
your Card without your permission. If you do NOT tell us within
two business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your
Card and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using
your Card without your permission if you had told us, you could
lose as much as $50.00. 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.
4. Address and Telephone Number. If you believe your Card or
PIN has been lost or stolen or that someone has transferred
or may transfer money from your account without your permission,
call (715) 359-4231 or write: INTERCITY STATE BANK P.O BOX 560.
SCHOFIELD WI 54476. You should also call the number or write

5. Business Day Disclosure. For purposes of these disclosures,
our business days are Monday through Friday. The following holidays
are not included as business days: ALL FEDERAL HOLIDAYS.
6. Goods and Services Purchased. If a merchant accepts the Card
in payment of goods or services, and you receive credit from
the merchant for goods returned or adjustments, your account
will be credited. We will not make cash refunds to you on purchases
made with the Card. Unless your use of the Card results in a
loan from us to you, you must raise any claim or defense with
respect to goods or services purchased with your Card directly
with the merchant who honored the Card.

of goods or services which is paid for directly through a terminal;

for your convenience and we are not liable for the availability
or failure to operate of all or any part of a terminal. You
release us from liability for personal injury or property damage
Incurred by you in connection with use of the Card or any terminal
and consequential damages incurred in connection with the use
of a Card or terminal.
9. Termination. We may terminate your privilege of using the
EFT System and we and/or VISA and/or MasterCard as applicable
may withhold approval of any transaction at any time. The privilege
of using the Card by any of you may be terminated by anyone
person who can use the accounts accessible with the Card. The
Card is our property and shall be surrendered by you to us upon
request and regardless of who terminates the Card privileges.
Termination shall not affect the rights and obligations of the
parties for transactions made with the EFT System before the
privileges are terminated.

funds transfers: (a) You may use your Card and PIN, when required,
to accomplish the following transactions (some of these services

for purchases and (ii) pay bills.
11. Limitations on Transfers. (a) Under federal regulations
you may make no more than 6 preauthorized, automatic or telephone
(Including data transmissions) transfers per month from each
of your savings and money market deposit accounts and no more
than three of the transfers and withdrawals may be payments
by check, draft, debit card or similar order to third parties
including a transfer using a Card at a point-of-sale terminal.
If a transfer from your account will cause you to exceed these
limits, we may not execute the transfer. There are no other
limitations on the amount or frequency of preauthorized transfers
to or from your accounts. Transactions conducted with a Card
at an automated teller machine do not count toward these limitations.
Your account is subject to the following limitations, which
may restrict your ability to make electronic funds transfers.

12. Notice Regarding Illegal Transactions. You agree that you
will not use your Card for any illegal gambling or any other
Illegal transaction. We reserve the right to block the use of
your Card for a gambling transaction.
13. Overdrafts/Credit Account. Each withdrawal or transfer from
an account is an order to us to pay from that account at that
time, which we may charge against the account even though the
charge creates an overdraft. The time required to charge or
credit your account after you use your Card will depend on the
location of the terminal and the type of transaction, however
we reserve the right to charge your account immediately upon
your request for the funds transfer. If you overdraw your account
you agree to immediately pay us the overdrawn amount, together
with any applicable fees. If the account is maintained in connection
with an overdraft credit plan, any overdraft will be made in
accordance with the agreement or rules governing that account
rather than this Agreement. If any account is a credit account,
such as a Visa card or MasterCard card account, you should refer
to the agreement provided in connection with that account for
your rights and responsibilities relating to transactions affecting
that account in which the Card is used.
14. Charge for Transfers. We will charge you for electronic
fund transfers the fees, if any, identified in our current fee
schedule accompanying this Agreement, as may be amended from
time to time. When you use a terminal not owned by us, you may
be charged a fee by the terminal/network operator and you may
be charged a fee for a balance inquiry even if you do not complete
a funds transfer. You will be notified of any such fee when
you use the terminal. You may also authorize a payee to electronically
debit from your account a fee because a check you presented
to the payee was returned for insufficient funds.
15. Terminal Transfers. Unless you are transferring $15 or less
to or from your account using an electronic terminal that accepts
your Card, you can get a receipt at the time you make any transfer
to or from your account using an electronic terminal that accepts
your Card.
16. Periodic Statements. Unless the only type of electronic
transfer that you receive is a preauthorized deposit to your
passbook account, you will get a monthly account statement.
If there are no transfers in a particular month, you will get
a statement at least quarterly.
17. Passbook Account Where the Only Possible Electronic Fund
Transfers are Preauthorized Credits. If you bring your passbook
to us, we will record any electronic deposits that were made
to your account since the last time you brought in your passbook.
18. Preauthorized Credits. If you have arranged to have direct
deposits made to your account at least once every 60 days from
the same person or company, you can call us at (715) 359-4231
to find out whether or not the deposit has been made.
19. Preauthorized Withdrawals.
(a) 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 (715)359-4231 or write us at INTERCITY STATE BANK,
P.O BOX 560, SCHOFIELD, WI 54476 in time for us to receive your
request, 3 business days or more before the payment is scheduled
to be made. If you call, we may also require you to put your
request in writing and get it to us within 14 days after you
call. We will charge you for each stop payment order you give
the charge for stopping payment identified in our current fee
schedule accompanying this Agreement as may be amended from
time to time.
(b) Notice of Varying Amounts. If these regular payments may
vary in amount the person you are going to pay will tell you,
10 days before each payment, when it will be made and how much
it will be. You may choose instead to get this notice only when
the payment would differ by more than a certain amount from
the previous payment, or when the amount would fall outside
certain limits that you set.
(c) 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.
20. 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, your account does not contain
enough money to make the transfer.
- if the money in your account is subject to legal process or
other encumbrances restricting the transfer.
- if the transfer would go over the credit limit on your overdraft
credit plan, if any. - if the terminal where you are making
the transfer does not have enough cash.
- if the terminal or transfer system was not working properly
and you knew about the breakdown when you started the transfer.
- if circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood)
prevent the transfer despite reasonable precautions that we
have taken.
- if incomplete or inaccurate information is forwarded by the
U.S. Treasury or through an automated clearing house.
- as otherwise indicated in the Agreement.
21. Account Information Disclosure. We will disclose information
to third parties about your account or the transfers you make:
(a) to third parties where it is necessary for completing or
tracing transfers or resolving errors or claims; or (b) to verify
or disclose the existence, amount or condition of your accounts
for third parties, such as credit bureaus, merchants or other
financial institutions; or (c) pursuant to court orders and
other legal process; or (d) to comply with subpoenas, summonses,
search warrants or requests from government agencies; (e) to
comply with state or federal laws requiring us to provide information
regarding depositors and their accounts to governmental agencies;

out of such disclosure in accordance with our Deposit Account
Rules or privacy policy we provide to you; (g) to others with
your consent; or (h) otherwise in accordance with our privacy
policy we provide to you.
22. Foreign Currency Conversion and International Fees. If you
use your Card or account for a transaction in a foreign country,
the transaction amount will be converted to U.S. currency. Depending
on whether you use a VISA or MasterCard debit card, VISA or
MasterCard may do the conversion. If the transaction is processed
by VISA, VISA will use a currency conversion rate it selects
from the range of rates available in wholesale currency markets
for the day prior to the central processing date of the transaction
or the government-mandated rate in effect for the day prior
to the central processing date. If the transaction is converted
by MasterCard, MasterCard will use either a government-mandated
exchange rate or a wholesale exchange rate. The rate MasterCard
uses for a particular transaction is the rate MasterCard selects
for the applicable currency on the day the transaction is processed.
The rate used to convert a particular transaction may differ
from the rate VISA or MasterCard itself receives and may differ
from the rate applicable on the date the transaction occurred
or was posted to your account. In addition, a currency conversion
assessment equal to a percentage of the transaction amount debited
to your account may be charged and you agree to pay such currency
conversion assessment, if any, identified in the Schedule of
Fees and Charges. You agree to pay charges and accept credits
for the converted transaction in accordance with these terms,
the Schedule of Fees and Charges and the then current applicable
VISA or MasterCard rules. Charges that are based on a percentage
of the amount of the transaction will be calculated on the transaction
amount in U.S. Currency. If a transaction is made in a foreign
country or with a merchant in a foreign country, you may be
charged a fee equal to a percentage of the transaction amount
debited to your account in United States dollars, and you agree
to pay this International transaction fee, if any, identified
in the Schedule of Fees and Charges.
23. Amendment. We may amend this Agreement upon giving you such
notice as may be required by law, effective upon the date indicated
in the notice.
24. Additional Provisions.

or ISB Bill Pay service, you agree to be bound by the terms
and conditions of this Agreement and Disclosure. All current
and future signers are jointly and severally liable. Each of
your accounts at ISB is also governed by the applicable account
disclosure/agreement and Truth-In-Savings disclosure you received
when you opened your account, prior receipt of which you acknowledge.
1. TERMS USED. "We", "our", "us"
and "the Bank" refer to Intercity State Bank. "You"
and "your" refer to a customer of the Bank, account
owner, joint owner, or anyone authorized by the customer to
use the account. "Payee" refers to the merchants or
other parties you are paying with Bill Pay service.

ISB checking account. The Bank reserves the right to refuse

US Postal Service to deliver your payment, the bank requires
1 to 2 business days for processing. (Example: A request made
on Friday after 5:30 pm will not be processed until Tuesday
morning, i.e. 5 days. Then if it takes 7 days for mail delivery,
the total time from the Bill Pay request to delivery is 12 days.)

take into consideration federal holidays when selecting a processing
date for these items.

Agreement will be governed in all respects by Wisconsin State
law. If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest of the
Agreement will remain in effect.
9. UNAUTHORIZED TRANSFERS (SEE ERROR RESOLUTION ABOVE). CONTACT

order or if you give us your written permission.

OCCUR BECAUSE OF ANY FAILURE TO MAKE A TRANSACTION YOU REQUEST
OF THE BANK.

FUNDS AVAILABILITY
POLICY
YOUR ABILITY TO WITHDRAW FUNDS
Our policy is to make funds from your deposits available to
you on the first business day after the day we receive your
deposit. Electronic direct deposits will be available on the
day we receive the deposit. Once the funds are available you
can withdraw them in cash and we will use them to pay checks
you have written.
For determining the availability of your deposits, every day
is a business day, except Saturdays, Sundays, and federal holidays.
If you make a deposit before N/A on a business day that we are
open, we will consider that day to be the day of your deposit.
However, if you make a deposit on a day we are not open, we
will consider that the deposit was made on the next business
day we are open.
If you make a deposit at an ATM that we own or operate on a
business day that we are open, we will consider that day to
be the day of your deposit. However, if you make a deposit at
an ATM that we own or operate on a day we are not open, we will
consider that the deposit was made on the next business day
that we are open.
Longer Delays May Apply
In some cases, we will not make all of the funds you deposit
by check available to you on the first business day after the
day of your deposit. Depending on the type of check that you
deposit, funds may not be available until the fifth business
day after the day of your deposit. The first $100 of your deposits,
however, will be available on the first business day after the
day of your deposit.
If we are not going to make all of the funds from your deposit
available on the first business day after the day of your deposit,
we will notify you at the time you make your deposit. We will
also tell you when the funds will be available. If your deposit
is not made directly to one of our employees, or if we decide
to take this action after you have left the premises, we will
mail you the notice by the day after we receive your deposit.
If you will need the funds from a deposit right away, you should
ask us when the funds will be available.
In addition, funds you deposit by check may be delayed for a
longer period under the following circumstances:
- We believe a check you deposit will not be paid.
- You deposit checks totaling more than $5,000 on anyone 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 communications or
computer equipment.
We will notify you if we delay your ability to withdraw funds
for any of these reasons, and we will tell you when the funds
will be available. They will generally be available no later
than the eleventh business day after the day of your deposit.
Special Rules For New Accounts
If you are a new customer, the following special rules may apply
during the first 30 days your account is open.
Funds from electronic direct deposits to your account will be
available on the day we receive the deposit. Funds from deposits
of cash, wire transfers, and the first $5,000 of a day's total
deposits of cashier's, certified, teller's, traveler's, and
federal, state, and local government checks will be available
on the first business day after the day of your deposit if the
deposit meets certain conditions. For example, the checks must
be payable to you (and you may have to use a special deposit
slip). The excess over $5,000 will be available on the ninth
business day after the day of your deposit. If your deposit
of these checks (other than a U.S. Treasury check) is not made
in person to one of our employees, the first $5,000 will not
be available until the second business day after the day of
your deposit.
Funds from all other check deposits will be available on the
tenth business day after the day of your deposit.

U.S. PATRIOT
ACT NOTICE
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.
DEPOSIT
ACCOUNT RULES
1. Accounts. These Rules apply to all deposit accounts established
by you with us at this time and at any future time, subject
to our right to amend these Rules from time to time. Accounts
subject to these Rules include, but are not limited to, savings
accounts, checking accounts, NOW accounts, certificates of deposit,
and money market deposit accounts and other deposit accounts
we offer. These Rules apply to all depositors establishing such
accounts. In these Rules, the terms "you" and "your"
refer to each depositor, and the terms "us", "we",
and "our" refer to the Bank. Terms not defined in
these Rules have the meanings assigned to them in the Wisconsin
Uniform Commercial Code.
2. Account Designation Cards. When you open your account, you
will sign an account designation card or similar document evidencing
the account by written or electronic means acceptable to us.
This will give us your name, your tax payer identification number
and other information. We will treat this information as correct
until you submit a written change to us.
3. Deposits. Unless otherwise stated in a funds availability
policy, if you deposit funds to your accounts on a non-business
day, after the close of business on any day, or if made to a
night depository, we will treat the deposit as received by us
at the opening of business on our next business day. All deposits,
collections and transactions between us and you shall be governed
by the Wisconsin Uniform Commercial Code, as modified by the
bylaws and rules of any clearinghouse association of which we
are a member and our Funds Availability Policy. We reserve the
right to refuse to accept deposits or specific items for deposit.
We also reserve the right to limit the minimum or maximum balance
that may be maintained in your accounts and the number of deposits
and items deposited. You agree that any item, (including without
limitation a remotely created check) you deposit (and any interest
accrued on that deposit) or for which you receive cash that
is returned to us by the depository institution on which it
was drawn unpaid or paid but subsequently returned may be charged
against any account you have with us regardless whether the
other depository institution returned the item by electronic
or other means before its midnight deadline and even if such
chargeback creates an overdraft. If we receive notice that an
item you deposited will be returned, we may place a hold on
funds in the account to which that item was deposited and apply
such funds against the item to be returned. If there are insufficient
funds in that account for us to place a hold on, we may place
a hold on funds in any of your accounts with us. We may also
place a hold on funds, reverse payment of an item from your
account or reverse credit of a deposit into your account if
we believe that a transaction with which you are involved is
subject to fraudulent or criminal activity. To the extent not
prohibited by applicable law, you agree to pay any reasonable
attorneys' fees that we incur with regard to your fraudulent
or criminal activity. We are not required to give you prior
notice of any action that we take with regard to any item unless
notice is required by applicable law. You waive notice of nonpayment,
dishonor or protest for any item you deposit for credit or collection
or that we pay you in cash unless notice is required by applicable
law.
If you deposit a remotely created check as defined in 12 CFR
229.2(fff), you warrant that the person on whose account the
check is drawn authorized the issuance of the check in the amount
stated and to the named payee.
You agree that we may re-present any item without notice to
you and that we may charge a fee for such re-presentation as
set forth in our schedule of fees.
you agree that any item you deposit that is returned unpaid
due to a missing endorsement may be reprocessed by us at our
discretion and without notice to you if the form of endorsement
required may be supplied by us. You agree to comply with the
endorsement zone restrictions established by us. Until further
modified by us, you may endorse any check for deposit by signing
the back of the check in the area within 1-1/2 inches of the
trailing edge of the check. (The trailing edge is the left side
of the check looking at it from the front.) If you write or
mark anywhere on the back of any check other than within this
area, you will be responsible to us for any losses to us which
are caused by these writings or marks.
You understand that we may convert the information on your check
to electronic format and may present the check electronically
to other financial institutions, a process called check truncation.
We may also convert the electronic information back into paper
format, a process called reconversion. Because we may truncate
and/or reconvert your check, some security features of your
checks may not survive the truncation/reconversion process.
Some check stock may create programming and other errors during
the truncation process. Therefore, we may request that you use
the check stock we provide or that you use checks sold by vendors
approved by us. If we request you to do so, you agree to use
only check stock that we provide to you or from a vendor approved
by us. You also agree to use only black or blue ink when writing
checks if we ask you to do so. If we make either of these requests
and you fail to comply, you will be liable to us for any errors
caused by your failure to use our check stock or check stock
approved by us or black or blue ink.
We reserve the right to handle any item as a collection item.
If we take an item for collection, we act only as your collection
agent. We are not responsible for an item lost while not in
our possession. We are not responsible for any deposit made
using our night depository service or sent to us by mail until
we enter the deposit into our records.
You agree that you will not create and deposit any substitute
checks without our prior written consent unless the substitute
check has been endorsed by another bank. A "substitute
check" is a copy of an original check that is the same
as an original check for all purposes including proving that
you made a payment, if it includes an accurate copy of the front
and back of the original check and contains the words: "This
is a legal copy of your check. You can use it the same way as
you would the original check."
You authorize us to initiate automated clearing house (ACH)
credit entries to the accounts and to initiate, if necessary,
debit entries and adjustments for any credit entries made in
error to the accounts. With respect to such entries as well
as any other ACH debit entries, you agree to be bound by the
rules of the National Automated Clearinghouse Association and
the Wisconsin Automated Clearinghouse Association ("ACH
Rules") in effect at the time of the transaction. Automated
credit entries made to the accounts are provisional under the
ACH Rules until we have received final settlement or otherwise
have received payment. If we do not receive such settlement
or payment, we are entitled to a refund of the amount credited
to any account and the party making payment to you shall not
be deemed to have paid you in the amount of such credit entry.
Under the ACH Rules, we are not required to give next day notice
to you of receipt of an ACH item and we will not do so. However,
we will notify you of the receipt of payments in the periodic
statements we provide to you. Payment of electronic deposits
may be made to a person or account on the basis of the identifying
numbers provided by the sender even if the number identifies
a person(s) different than the person(s) named by the sender.
You acknowledge that you will not initiate ACH entries that
violate the laws of the United States.
4. Withdrawals. When you are making a withdrawal, we may ask
you for identification. If you lose any identification item,
you should tell us immediately. You may withdraw funds by using
forms furnished or approved by us and by any other method permitted
by us. We may accept telephone, electronic or preauthorized
orders from you to withdraw or transfer funds from your accounts
and we may make such withdrawal or transfer pursuant to such
instruction even if the withdrawals or transfers create overdrafts,
as further explained elsewhere in these rules. We may limit
the number of, or refuse to permit these transfers. Federal
law may limit transfers and withdrawals from the accounts and
you agree to follow these restrictions or such other restrictions
as may be imposed by Federal law from time to time. As of the
preprinted date of these Rules, Federal law limits preauthorized
and automatic transfers and withdrawals (including telephone
transfers) from savings and money market accounts to 6 per month.
For money market accounts, no more than 3 of the 6 may be made
by check, draft, debit card or similar order to third parties.
Activity in excess of applicable restrictions may be grounds
for closing an account or removing an account's transaction
and check privileges. We also reserve the right to place additional
limitations on the number of withdrawals or debits to the accounts.
If we have reason to believe that a dispute or uncertainty exists
as to the rights, powers, duties or authority of anyone of you
or any other signer to an account or their successors, we may,
but shall not be required to refuse to permit withdrawals, pay
items or recognize the authority of any signer (including any
agent) until we are satisfied that the dispute or uncertainty
is resolved. We will not be responsible for any damages you
may suffer as a result of our refusal to allow you to make a
withdrawal or pay an item due to the dispute or uncertainty.
We may pay an item drawn on an account which contains any authorized
signature whether or not the form of the signature is the same
as that shown on the account designation card or other account
documents given to us. We may return unpaid any item that does
not contain a signature reflected on the account designation
card you gave us unless you have communicated to us in advance
of the presentation of the item that the item should be paid.
You may request that we pay items drawn on the account which
bear or appear to bear a facsimile of your signature. We may
pay these items, whether or not they are in fact authorized
by you, as long as the facsimile signature they contain resembles
any specimen or sample facsimile signature which you have given
to us. You also agree that we will not be responsible if we
pay any item which has been forged, altered or counterfeited
regardless of by whom, or by what means including electronic
or photostatic copying, in a way that a reasonable person could
not detect. You agree that if we take an item for processing
for collection or payment by automated means, we are not required
to manually examine the item. You agree that we do not fall
to exercise ordinary care in paying an item solely because,
at our discretion, our procedures do not require for sight review
of an item or may provide for sight review on a random basis
or for items over a certain dollar amount.
Except as provided below with respect to postdated checks, our
authority to process or pay any such item will not be limited
or restricted in any way by legends, limitations, restrictions
or other special instructions, such as "void after 6 months,"
written or printed on the item by you. Any such special instruction
is void with respect to us and we will not be liable to you
for processing or paying any item drawn on an account by reason
of any such special instruction. We may, but are not required
to, process or pay any item, other than a certified check, which
is presented to us more than six months after its date.
You agree that we may refuse to cash a check (including but
not limited to a substitute check) drawn on your account that
is presented for payment by a payee or endorsee who is not a
customer of ours. Alternatively, you agree that we may impose
additional identification requirements on a payee or endorsee
who is a non-customer of ours who presents for cashing an item
drawn on your account and/or we may charge a fee to cash such
item. If such person fails or refuses to supply the identifying
information we request you agree that our refusal to cash the
item is not considered wrongful dishonor.
Fees for postdated check notices are included in our fee schedules.
We will not have a duty to act on a postdated check notice until
you have given us both the number and the exact amount of the
item as well as the date it was written and the name of the
payee and we have had a reasonable opportunity to take action
prior to payment of the item. The number and amount must be
exactly correct to enable our computer system to match the item
to your postdated check notice. We may return and not pay postdated
items regardless of when we receive them. All oral notices will
expire after 14 calendar days from the date we receive the notice
unless you confirm the notice in writing to us at our address
within the 14 day period. Written notices will be effective
for six months from the date of the written notice unless you
renew the notice in writing to us at our address for another
six months.
On interest bearing accounts, we may, at any time, require 7
days prior written notice of your intent to withdraw funds from
the accounts.
If we participate in an electronic check presentment program,
we may receive an electronic "presentment notice"
from a bank where a check which you have written was deposited
or cashed. This means that that depository institution will
be forwarding the check to us for payment. When we receive that
depository institution's presentment notice, we may immediately
charge your account for the amount of the check. If we determine
that the check is not properly payable, we will return the check
and credit your account for the amount of the check.
You authorize us to debit your accounts for ACH debit entries
to your accounts, including debit entries that are originated
by payees that convert a check drawn by you on your account
into an ACH debit entry to your account.
5. Overdrafts. If a check you write or any other transfer or
withdrawal request is presented for payment, of if we otherwise
receive notice of such check, transfer, or withdrawal request,
and sufficient funds are not available in your account (due
to insufficient funds, uncollected items, or otherwise) to cover
the check, withdrawal or transfer, we may, at our option, either
(1) make payment in accordance with such check, transfer or
withdrawal request in any order convenient to us or (2) return
the check, transfer or other withdrawal request unpaid, and,
in either case, we will not be liable to you for doing so. If
we choose to pay the check, transfer or withdrawal request,
and we are reimbursed by an automatic advance from a line of
credit or transfer authorization that you may have established
with us, we will impose a fee in the amount disclosed by the
documents evidencing the automatic advance authorization or
line of credit, if any. If we choose to pay the check, transfer
or withdrawal request and we are not reimbursed by an automatic
advance from your line of credit or transfer authorization,
we will impose an overdraft charge for each item in the amount
disclosed in the statement of fees applicable to your account;
in such case, you agree that you will, without demand, immediately
deposit sufficient good funds to eliminate any overdraft and
to pay the overdraft charge, or we may at our option withdraw
funds from another of your accounts or deduct the overdraft
from the next deposit to your accounts, including any deposit
of benefit payments, such as Social Security or Supplemental
Security Income payments, in the amount of the insufficiency
and the overdraft charge or use any collection remedy. You are
responsible for immediately reimbursing us for all overdrawn
items and returned items, regardless of when or why returned,
and for all overdraft charges and returned check charges. Having
honored such checks or other debits in the past does not obligate
us to do so in the future. If there are sufficient funds in
an account to cover some but not all of your check, transfer
or withdrawal requests from the account, we will allow those
checks, transfer or withdrawal requests that can be paid, in
any order convenient to us. We are not required to notify you
if your account does not contain sufficient funds to pay all
items plus applicable fees.
6. Reversal. You may have the right to reverse any debit to
your account sent through the ACH system that was not authorized
by you in accordance with the ACH Rules. For consumer accounts,
if you want to reverse a debit, this means you must give us
a written statement under penalty of perjury within 15 days
after you get information from us that reflects that debit.
In your statement, you must declare and swear under oath that
the debit was not authorized by you. If we receive your statement
within the 15-day period, we will credit your account for the
amount of the payment. This right of reversal is in addition
to any applicable right to stop payment. We may require you
to submit written statements under penalty of perjury to us
under other circumstances in which you want to reverse an ACH
debit entry.
7. Fees and Charges. You agree to pay service, maintenance,
withdrawal, overdraft, check printing, and other fees, charges
and penalties in accordance with the applicable fee schedules
established by us from time to time. The types of transactions
for which a fee may be imposed for overdrafts is contained in
our fee schedules or account-opening disclosures that we provide
to you. You may obtain a schedule of interest, fees, and charges
from our office. Our current schedule of fees and charges has
been given to you in a separate disclosure statement. You also
agree to pay us photocopy costs and hourly fees for complying
with subpoenas or other legal orders or your requests. You authorize
us to deduct these fees, charges, and penalties from your accounts
without notice to you and even if they create an overdraft.
You agree that we may charge a fee to a payee or endorsee on
a check drawn on your account who is not a customer of ours
and request identification satisfactory to us for cashing the
check.
8. Interest. Interest bearing accounts will bear interest at
annual rates which are calculated and compounded by such methods
as we may establish from time to time. This rate may be dependent
upon the balance in the accounts. Current rate information is
available by phone and other means at any of our locations.
Except as required by law, we reserve the right to pay interest
only on collected balances and only from the date of collection,
not to pay interest on accounts open for less than 90 days,
and not to pay interest accrued but not credited at the time
an account closes. We will not pay interest on accounts that
do not meet eligibility requirements established by law.
9. Records. The balance or transaction amount shown on any receipt
you receive may be checked against our records. If there is
an error, it will be corrected and you will be notified. Our
records will prevail if there is a difference between the amounts
shown on your receipt and our records.
10. Statements/Notices. Unless an account is evidenced by a
passbook, we will mail or make available to you a periodic statement
of the accounts. Periodic statements and notices, if any, will
be mailed to anyone of you at the current address in our files,
unless another method of delivery has been agreed to by us.
If no transaction occurs, other than the crediting of interest
or if a statement is undeliverable, we may discontinue providing
statements. Based upon the type of account you select or our
receipt of instructions from you, your checks may be retained
by us or others in the check collection process and not returned
to you with your statements or we may return to you original
or substitute checks. If we or others retain your original or
substitute checks, the original or substitute checks or copies
of optical images of them will be available for a period of
60 days after posting them to your accounts. After 60 days,
we may destroy the original or substitute checks or copies of
optical images and use reasonable care to maintain legible records
for 7 years after receipt of the original or substitute check
or optical image during which time you may examine the records.
Photocopies are available to you for a fee. Our responsibility
for furnishing copies of items is limited to those items which
are legible and available. All statements, notices, cancelled
original or substitute checks and other items must be examined
by you promptly upon receipt. You must notify us of an unauthorized
or missing signature or alteration within 14 days after we send
or make available to you your statement or original or substitute
checks. If you fail to notify us within the time specified,
you are precluded from asserting the unauthorized signature
or alterations against us. Subject to paragraph 6 and other
than an account problem as a result of a check's status as a
"substitute check", you must also notify us of any
other account problem, including an erroneous statement or passbook
entry, unauthorized or missing endorsement or improper charges
within 30 days of the date we mail or make available to you
your statement and checks. These materials shall be deemed given
when mailed by us. If the account problem is as a result of
a check's status as a substitute check, you must notify us in
writing within the time required by applicable law.
If an account is evidenced by a passbook, we will allow transactions
on the account by any account owner, without presentment of
the passbook. The passbook is for record keeping purposes only
and does not constitute evidence of authority to conduct transactions
on the account or a complete record of the account.
11. Individual Account. If you open an individual account, only
you have the right to withdraw. Upon your death, the account
balance will be payable as determined under applicable state
law.
12. Joint Account. If an account is designated as a joint account
on the account records, sums on deposit are payable upon the
request of any one of you or any survivor unless the account
designation card indicates that the signature of more than one
of you is necessary before sums on deposit are paid. The account
designation card may indicate that a joint account requires
the signature of two or more parties to the account before sums
on deposit are paid. Each of you shall notify us of the death
of the other. Unless indicated otherwise on the account designation
card, each of you may make deposits and withdrawals, grant a
security interest in or lien on the account to us and give notices
and instructions concerning the account without the consent
of the other, including but not limited to, instructions to
close the account. However, we may require the consent of a
joint owner for any transaction if we feel it is appropriate.
Subject to an owner's right to close an account, unless otherwise
indicated on the account designation card, no owner acting alone
without our consent may terminate the right of any other joint
owner by retitling the account. If an item is payable to any
of you, we may permit each of you to endorse such item for cash
or deposit to the account. If an item is payable to all of you,
all of you must endorse the item for cash or deposit to the
account. We have no duty to notify one of you of the actions
of the other. A withdrawal by one of you discharges our obligation
to all of you with respect to the amount withdrawn unless the
account designation card indicates that two or more signatures
are required to withdraw funds from your account. If one joint
owner dies, the account becomes the property of the surviving
joint owner(s), subject to our security interest and right of
set-off, and the surviving joint owner(s) is not required to
survive the death by any specified period.
13. Marital Account. If an account is designated as a marital
account on the account records, the account is payable to either
of you during the lifetime of both of you and until we receive
actual written notice of the death of anyone of you from a survivor
or representative or beneficiary of one of you. Upon the death
of either of you, 50% of the sums on deposit belong to the survivor
and 50% of the sums on deposit belong to the estate or other
designated beneficiaries of the decedent, in accordance with
Wisconsin law, subject to our security interest and right of
set-off, and neither of you is required to survive the other
by any specified period. Either of you may initiate transactions
on the account, endorse for cash or deposit to the account any
item payable to either or both of you, or give notice or instructions
concerning the account. A withdrawal by one of you discharges
our obligation to each of you with respect to the amount withdrawn.
Each of you agrees to notify us of the death of the other.
14. Payable on Death Accounts. You may designate your account
to be a "payable on death" ("P.O.D.") account
by naming one or more P.O.D. Beneficiaries and completing the
proper documents. You may also change or revoke the P.O.D. Beneficiary
while you are alive by completing the proper documents. You
have control of the funds in your account while you are alive.
If you have an individual account, upon your death, all of the
funds in your account will go to your P.O.D. Beneficiaries,
subject to our security interest and right of set-off and none
of your P.O.D. Beneficiaries are required to survive the death
by any specified period. If you have a joint account, both of
you may jointly designate P.O.D. Beneficiaries and upon the
death of the last surviving joint owner, the funds in the account
will go to the P.O.D. Beneficiaries named on the account when
the last owner dies, subject to our security interest and right
of set-off and none of the P.O.D. Beneficiaries are required
to survive the death by any specified period. If you have a
marital account, either of you may designate P.O.D. Beneficiaries
to receive your interest in the account when you die in accordance
with paragraph 13. We are not required to notify any beneficiary
of the existence of a POD account or any change or revocation
in a P.O.D. beneficiary designation.
15. Organization Account. We will require a separate authorization
document designating the person(s) authorized to make and conditions
required for withdrawals from any account in the name of a legal
entity such as a partnership, corporation or other organization.
We will honor such authorization according to its terms until
we receive written notice that it is amended or terminated by
the governing body of such organization. Generally, federal
law limits the availability of NOW accounts to individuals,
sole proprietorships, nonprofit organizations operated primarily
for religious, philanthropic, charitable, educational, political
or other similar purposes, governmental units and funds held
in a fiduciary capacity. If you have requested such an account
you represent to us that you satisfy the eligibility requirements,
and that you will not assign the account to any person who does
not satisfy the eligibility requirements.
16. Agent. Subject to compliance with our procedures, all of
you acting jointly may designate one or more agents with such
authority to act with respect to your accounts as is authorized
in the document designating the agent. Any designation of agent
shall be executed in a document approved by us and shall be
deemed an agency relationship governed by Chapter 705, Wis.
Stats. We reserve the right to not recognize the power of an
agent to act for you if the designation of agent is not made
pursuant to a document we approve. We may, on a case-by-case
basis, require an original power of attorney or your or your
agent's signature to be notarized. We may also, on a case-by-case
basis, place additional limits on your agent's authority to
transact business on your account. We accept no responsibility
or obligation to supervise or review the use of accounts by
agents.
17. Stop Payment Orders. When placing a stop payment order,
you agree to indemnify us and hold us harmless for all expenses,
costs, and attorneys' fees incurred by us due to our refusal
to pay the item. Fees for stopping payment are included in our
fee schedules. Under the law, there are some situations where
a check can be enforced against you even though you ordered
us to stop payment. We will not have a duty to stop payment
until you have given us both the number and the exact amount
of the item as well as the date it was written and the name
of the payee and we have had a reasonable opportunity to take
action prior to the earlier of our payment of it or one hour
after the opening of the next business day after the business
day we receive it. Except as provided below for verbal orders,
an order is effective for six months, unless you renew the notice,
in writing within that time, for another six months. At our
option we may continue stop payment orders beyond these time
periods unless cancelled by you. A verbal order is effective
for 14 days, unless confirmed in writing within that time. Stop
payment orders received after regular banking hours or on a
Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday shall be deemed received
at the opening of business on the next business day (Monday
through Friday, exclusive of federal holidays). The number and
amount must be exactly correct to enable our computer system
to match the item to your stop payment order. Stop payment orders
must be received at our location where the account is held.
If you have preauthorized us to make payments out of an account,
stop payment orders must be received by us at least 3 business
days before the payment is scheduled to be made. If you have
authorized a series of charges to your account by a particular
company and wish to cancel that authorization, you must notify
the company in writing that you are cancelling the authorization.
If we pay the check or debit despite your timely stop payment
order, the payment will stand unless you show us the check or
debit was unenforceable. If we credit your account after paying
a check or debit over a valid and timely stop payment order,
you agree to sign a statement describing the dispute with the
payee, to transfer to us all of your rights against the payee
or other holder of the check, and to assist us in legal action
taken against that person. A stop payment order will be released
only upon written request from the account owner who authorized
the stop payment order to be placed.
18. Official Bank Checks. If you ask us to stop payment on a
lost, destroyed or stolen cashier's check, teller's check or
certified check on which you are the remitter or the payee or
the drawer, we will require you to provide a written declaration
of loss describing the item with reasonable certainty. We must
be given a reasonable time to act on the declaration before
the item is paid. Your claim is not enforceable until the 90th
day after we issued or certified the check and until that time
we will pay the check to any person entitled to enforce it.
Our payment of a check to a person entitled to enforce it discharges
us of all liability with respect to the check. Such person may
have a claim against you after the 90th day and after we have
paid you.
19. Substitute Check Expedited Recrediting Process. If you believe
that you have lost money because you received a substitute check,
you may have the right to file a claim for an expedited refund.
If you have the right to file a claim, we will investigate your
claim and will notify you whether we have refunded to your account
the amount of your claim. The claim must be in writing and must
contain certain information required by applicable law to help
us investigate your claim. If you call us with a substitute
check expedited recredit claim within forty days of the date
we mailed your substitute check or the account statement showing
that the substitute check was posted to your account, whichever
is later, you must notify us in writing of your claim for an
expedited recredit within ten business days after the banking
day on which we received your timely oral claim.
20. Cutoff Hour For Checks. Any knowledge, notice, stop payment
order or legal process comes too late to modify our right or
duty to pay a check or charge your account for the check if
received by us after one hour after the opening of the next
business day after the business day on which we received the
check, or prior to that time if we do not have a reasonable
time to act upon the knowledge, notice, stop payment order or
legal process.
21. Inactive Accounts. If no deposits or withdrawals are made
or if you do not write to us indicating an interest in an account
for 5 consecutive years, the account may be presumed abandoned
and paid to the State as required by law.
22. Lost Checks or Access Device. You agree to notify us promptly,

withdrawals. Interest paid prior to receipt of your certified
TIN will be subject to back-up withholding under IRS regulations.

with or without cause, at any time. You are responsible for
any fees, charges or penalties and for the amount of any checks

notice and have had a reasonable opportunity to act on it. We

given to you at the time of account opening before or after
the change, at our option and subject to applicable law. Your
continued use of your account after the effective date of any
amendments or changes to the rules governing your account is
deemed to show your acceptance of such amendments or changes.
A change in our interest rates, fees or service charges does
not constitute an amendment of these Rules.

by signing the account designation card, agrees to be governed

rules you may have received from us prior to this date. Each

concerning the account. Each of you agrees to be jointly and
severally liable for fees, charges, overdrafts and any other
debts relating to the account and any account deficit resulting
from fees and charges, overdrafts and any other debts relating
to the account whether caused by you, another person authorized
to withdraw from the account, or a third party claiming an interest
in the account, together with the costs we incur to collect
the deficit including, to the extent not prohibited by law,
our reasonable attorneys' fees, regardless of whether you benefited
from the transaction or initiated the transaction.
35. Liability. We are not liable to you for any claims, damages
or expenses in connection with these Rules if such claims, damages
or expenses result from causes beyond our control. Examples
of such causes are computer and equipment failures, outages
or downtime and delays in processing items, credits or debits
due to causes other than our negligence. We are not liable to
you for any consequential damages you incur except for wrongful
dishonor or as otherwise provided by applicable law.
36. Waiver. Each of the rights, remedies and benefits provided
by these Rules are cumulative and do not exclude any rights,
remedies and benefits allowed by law. We do not give up any
rights under these Rules by delaying or failing to exercise
them. In the event a court of law finds any of these Rules are
unenforceable, the remaining Rules will remain in effect.
37. Other Provisions. There are no other provisions.
