Preferred Share Accounts

RATE AND FEE SCHEDULE

TRUTH-IN-SAVINGS ACCOUNT DISCLOSURES

Except as specifically described, the following disclosures apply to all of the accounts. All accounts described in this Rate and Fee Schedule are share accounts.

1. Rate Information. The Annual Percentage Yield is a percentage rate that reflects the total amount of dividends to be paid on an account based on the dividend rate and frequency of compounding for an annual period. For Preferred Share accounts, the Dividend Rate and Annual Percentage Yield are fixed and will be in effect for the term of the account. The Annual Percentage Yield is based on an assumption that dividends will remain on deposit until maturity. A withdrawal of dividends will reduce earnings.

2. Nature of Dividends. Dividends are paid from current income and available earnings after required transfers to reserves at the end of the period.

3. Dividends Compounding and Crediting. The compounding and crediting of dividends applicable to each account is set forth in the Rate Schedule. The Dividend Period begins on the first calendar day of the Dividend Period and ends on the last calendar day of the Dividend Period.

4. Balance Information. The minimum balance requirements applicable to each account are set forth in the Rate Schedule. For Preferred Share accounts, dividends are calculated by the Daily Balance method which applies a daily periodic rate to the principal in each account each day. * For Preferred Share accounts, if payroll deduction, the minimum opening balance can be $50.00.

5. Accrual of Dividends. For Preferred Share accounts, dividends will begin to accrue on non-cash deposits (e.g. checks) on the business day you make the deposit to your account. For Preferred Share accounts, if you close your account before accrued dividends are credited, accrued dividends will not be paid.

6. Transaction Limitations. After your account is opened, your ability to make additional deposits to your account or withdrawals of dividends and any limitations on such transactions are set forth in the Rate Schedule.

7. Maturity. Your account will mature as indicated on this Rate and Fee Schedule or on your Account Receipt or Renewal Notice.

Early Withdrawal Penalty.
We may impose a penalty if you withdraw any of the principal before the maturity date.

Amount of Penalty.
For Preferred Share accounts, the amount of the early withdrawal penaltyfor your account is 75% of the dividends credited.

How the Penalty Works.
The penalty is calculated as as forfeiture of part of the dividends that have been or would be earned on the account. It applies whether or not the dividends have been earned. In other words, if the account has not yet earned enough dividends or if the dividend has already been paid, the penalty will be deducted from the principal.

Exceptions to Early Withdrawal Penalties.
At our option, we may pay the acccount before maturity without imposing an early withdrawal penalty under the following circumstances:

1. When an account owner dies or is determined legally incompetent by a court or other body of competent jurisdiction.
   
   
2. Where the account is an Individual Retirement Account (IRA) and any portion is paid within seven (7) days after establishment; or where the account is a Keogh Plan (Keogh) provided that the depositor forfeits an amount of at least equal to the simple dividends earned in the amount withdrawn; or where the account is an IRA or Keogh and and the owner attains age 59 1/2 or becomes disabled.

Renewal Policy.
The renewal policies for your accounts is indicated on the reverse side. For Preferred Share accounts, your account will automatically renew for another term upon maturity. For Preferred Share accounts, you have a grace period of ten (10) days after maturity in which to withdraw funds in the account without being charged an early withdrawal penalty.

Nontransferable/Nonnegotiable.
Your account is nontransferable and nonnegotiable. The funds in your account may not be pledged to secure any obligation of an owner, except obligations with the Credit Union.
