*Banking regulations require that customers "opt-in" to this additional coverage before we can cover overdrafts for ATM and debit card transactions.

**Link an eligible checking or savings account to cover overdrafts. An account is considered eligible if held by the same ownership. Each time a transaction is presented against insufficient funds, your linked account will transfer the money necessary to bring your balance to zero. There is a $10 Overdraft Protection Transfer fee associated for each transfer that occurs. This coverage will not authorize everyday debit card transactions and ATM withdrawals.

***The Annual Percentage Rate (APR) will be fixed at 17.00%. You will be charged interest from the transaction date. We will use a method called "average daily balance including current transactions" to compute the finance charge. The minimum monthly payment required is 3% of the outstanding balance including finance charges, or $25, whichever is greater, but not more than the outstanding balance.
