You may request issuance of one or more Cards for use by Authorized Users, and may cancel any Card upon written notice actually received by us.

Each Authorized User must sign their signature on the reverse side of the Card delivered to you. If you are not operating a business as a sole proprietorship, you agree to give us certified copies of resolutions from your Board of Directors or other governing body, or other certificate or other evidence of authority satisfactory to us, which specifically authorizes you and each Authorized User with authority to use a Card or make any EFT Transaction on your account. Such evidence of authority must set forth the name and title of each Authorized user, and must be in form and substance satisfactory to us. You must tell us immediately by calling and confirm in writing of any change in the status of an Authorized User. We may ask you to give us additional documentation. You shall give us a reasonable time to process your notice and you shall take all necessary and appropriate action to obtain and return all Cards in the possession of such Authorized User. You must destroy such Cards. Until properly notified in writing of any change in such authorization, we may process and approve all EFT Transactions to or from your account, without inquiry and without regard to the application of the proceeds thereof or the authority of the Authorized user. Business Use. You and each Authorized User agree that all accounts linked to your Card are business accounts. You and each Authorized User agree and warrant to us that they will (i) not use, or permit the use of, the accounts, and any Service under this Agreement, or commingle funds in an account for any personal, family, or household purpose and (ii) not link any personal account or unrelated business account to the Card. Liability for Unauthorized Transactions. Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your Card or any PIN has been lost or stolen. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down.

We will provide you an account statement for each account cycle in which a fee is imposed, when there is any other activity in your Account or as otherwise required by applicable law. You can receive transaction information for your account by calling customer service at the number listed below. If you request a paper copy of an account statement, it will be sent to your current mailing address on file. Zero Liability Rule. The following limitations may be applicable to your accounts, except as provided by law: The zero liability limit described below only applies to debit cards that are United States issued VISA Consumer Cards or VISA Business Cards for transactions processed through a VISA network or, for ATM transactions, a Plus network. The zero liability limit described below does not apply to: other types of VISA commercial debit cards that are not VISA Business Cards; transactions using your personal identification number that are not processed through a VISA network; and ATM transactions which are not sent over VISA or Plus networks. Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your VISA debit card has been lost or stolen or if you believe any unauthorized transactions have been made using your VISA debit card. Your liability for unauthorized VISA debit card transactions that are processed through a VISA or Plus network, as applicable, will be zero dollars ($0.00). However, to the extent allowed under applicable law, we may hold you liable for the entire amount of an unauthorized transaction if we find, based on substantial evidence, that you have been grossly negligent or fraudulent in the handling of your deposit account or VISA debit card. For VISA Business Cards: in order for an unauthorized transaction to be covered by the zero liability limit described above you must notify

3 us within sixty (60) calendar days of the mailing of the first statement showing the unauthorized transaction; and an unauthorized transaction does not include any transaction allegedly conducted by (i) a business co-owner, (ii) the cardholder or person authorized by the cardholder, or (iii) any other person with an interest in or authority to transact business on the account. To notify us of lost or stolen cards, or of unauthorized transactions, call or write to us at the telephone number or address set forth below. This will help prevent unauthorized access to your account and minimize any inconvenience. We may require you to provide a written statement regarding an unauthorized VISA debit card transaction in order for the zero liability limit described above to apply. Cardholder Disclosure on Non-VISA Debit Transaction on Visa Branded Cards Your Visa debit card allows you to conduct transactions on the PULSE and SHAZAM debit networks, which generally requires you to enter your PIN. However, Citizens State Bank has enabled non-visa debit transaction processing that does not require a PIN number to be authenticated. These transactions are commonly referred to as Pinless debit bill payment and provide our customers with additional payment options. Please note that any provisions of our cardholder agreement relating to VISA transactions are not applicable to non- VISA debit transaction. VISA is a registered trademark of VISA in the United States and other countries. Illegal Transactions. You may not use your ATM, POS, or Debit Card, or other access device for any illegal or unlawful transaction, and we may decline to authorize any transaction that we believe poses an undue risk of illegality or unlawfulness. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may collect on any debt arising out of any illegal or unlawful transaction. CUSTOMER SERVICE If you believe your Card has been stolen or that someone has transferred or may transfer money from your account without your permission call or write Citizens State Bank, PO Box C, and New Castle, IN NOTE: In order to minimize the risk of losses from lost or stolen cards or PINS, we suggest that you call us immediately and then confirm in writing. IDENTIFICATION OF TERMINALS AVAILABLE TO CARDHOLDERS. For purpose of this Agreement, a terminal includes automated teller machines ( ATM ) and point of sale ( POS ) terminals (special store terminals at which payment for purchases may be made). An ATM terminal can be used without the assistance of another person and the use of a PIN is required to complete a transaction. There are two types of point of sale transactions. The first type utilizes special store terminals at which payment for purchases can be made ( POS/PIN ). POS/PIN terminals are used with the assistance of a retail store clerk or other operator and require the use of a PIN. All such persons are agents of the merchant and not of the Bank. The second type of point of sale transaction ( POS ) does not require the use of a PIN. The POS transaction is made by presenting your Citizens State Bank Business Debit Card at the time of purchase to merchants who have agreed to accept Card purchase transactions. A signature is required to authorize this type of transaction. TYPES OF AVAILABLE TRANSACTIONS AND LIMITS ON TRANSACTIONS INITIATED USING YOUR CARD Account Access. Your card will permit you to make such financial transactions as we may authorize from time to time on Checking Accounts as defined in your Deposit Account Agreement and Funds Availability Policy. You may also conduct other transactions as we add services and features to the automated bank system. Limits on Dollar Amount of Card Transactions. Separate withdrawal and purchase limits apply. Total withdrawals or purchases in any one day may not exceed the separate Daily Limits for a single Card number, regardless of the number of accounts that a single Card may access. You will be allowed to make transactions up to the available balance in your account plus any available line of credit balance or up to the maximum Daily Limit, whichever is less. The Daily Limits are as follows: ATM Daily POS/PIN Purchase Limits: Standard Card - $ Debit Daily POS/PIN Purchase Limits: Standard Card - $ At some types of ATMs, the withdrawal amount may be limited to machine constraints, and multiple transactions may be necessary to obtain the total amount desired.
