6 ROTH INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT CUSTODIAL ACCOUNT AGREEMENT Form 5305-RA under Section 408A of the Internal Revenue Code FORM (REV. MARCH 2002) The Depositor named on the Application is establishing a Roth Individual Retirement Account under section 408A to provide for his or her retirement and for the support of his or her beneficiaries after death. The Custodian named on the Application has given the Depositor the disclosure statement required by Regulations section The Depositor has assigned the custodial account the sum indicated on the Application. The Depositor and the Custodian make the following agreement: ARTICLE I Except in the case of a rollover contribution described in section 408A(e), a recharacterized contribution described in section 408A(d)(6), or an IRA Conversion Contribution, the Custodian will accept only cash contributions up to $3,000 per year for tax years 2002 through That contribution limit is increased to $4,000 for tax years 2005 through 2007 and $5,000 for 2008 and thereafter. For individuals who have reached the age of 50 before the close of the tax year, the contribution limit is increased to $3,500 per year for tax years 2002 through 2004, $4,500 for 2005, $5,000 for 2006 and 2007, and $6,000 for 2008 and thereafter. For tax years after 2008, the above limits will be increased to reflect a cost-of-living adjustment, if any. ARTICLE II 1. The annual contribution limit described in Article I is gradually reduced to $0 for higher income levels. For a single Depositor, the annual contribution is phased out between adjusted gross income (AGI) of $95,000 and $110,000; for a married Depositor filing jointly, between AGI of $150,000 and $160,000; and for a married Depositor filing separately, between AGI of $0 and $10,000. In the case of a conversion, the Custodian will not accept IRA Conversion Contributions in a tax year if the Depositor s AGI for the tax year the funds were distributed from the other IRA exceeds $100,000 or if the Depositor is married and files a separate return. Adjusted gross income is defined in section 408A(c)(3) and does not include IRA Conversion Contributions. 2. In the case of a joint return, the AGI limits in the preceding paragraph apply to the combined AGI of the Depositor and his or her spouse. ARTICLE III The Depositor s interest in the balance in the custodial account is nonforfeitable. ARTICLE IV 1. No part of the custodial account funds may be invested in life insurance contracts, nor may the assets of the custodial account be commingled with other property except in a common trust fund or common investment fund (within the meaning of section 408(a)(5)). 2. No part of the custodial account funds may be invested in collectibles (within the meaning of section 408(m)) except as otherwise permitted by section 408(m)(3), which provides an exception for certain gold, silver, and platinum coins, coins issued under the laws of any state, and certain bullion. ARTICLE V 1. If the Depositor dies before his or her entire interest is distributed to him or her and the Depositor s surviving spouse is not the designated beneficiary, the remaining interest will be distributed in accordance with (a) below or, if elected or there is no designated beneficiary, in accordance with (b) below: (a) The remaining interest will be distributed, starting by the end of the calendar year following the year of the Depositor s death, over the designated beneficiary s remaining life expectancy as determined in the year following the death of the Depositor. (b) The remaining interest will be distributed by the end of the calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of the Depositor s death. 2. The minimum amount that must be distributed each year under paragraph 1(a) above is the account value at the close of business on December 31 of the preceding year divided by the life expectancy (in the single life table in Regulations section 1.401(a)(9)-9) of the designated beneficiary using the attained age of the beneficiary in the year following the year of the Depositor s death and subtracting 1 from the divisor for each subsequent year. 3. If the Depositor s surviving spouse is the designated beneficiary, such spouse will then be treated as the Depositor. ARTICLE VI 1. The Depositor agrees to provide the Custodian with all information necessary to prepare any reports required by sections 408(i) and 408A(d)(3)(E), Regulations sections and , or other guidance published by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). 2.

After your death, your beneficiary(ies) shall have the right to direct the investment of your Roth IRA assets, subject to the same conditions that applied to you during your lifetime under this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 9.03 of this article). We shall have no discretion to direct any investment in your Roth IRA. We assume no responsibility for rendering investment advice with respect to your Roth IRA, nor will we offer any opinion or judgment to you on matters concerning the value or suitability of any investment or proposed investment for your Roth IRA.

We will not exercise the voting rights and other shareholder rights with respect to investments in your Roth IRA unless you provide timely written directions acceptable to us. You will select the type of investment for your Roth IRA assets, provided, however, that your selection of investments shall be limited to those types of investments that we are authorized by our charter, articles of incorporation, or bylaws to offer and do in fact offer for investment in Roth IRAs Beneficiary(ies): If you die before you receive all of the amounts in your Roth IRA, payments from your Roth IRA will be made to your beneficiary(ies). You may designate one or more persons or entities as beneficiary of your Roth IRA. This designation can only be made on a form provided by or acceptable to us, and it will only be effective when it is filed with us during your lifetime. Unless otherwise specified, each beneficiary designation you file with us will cancel all previous ones. The consent of a beneficiary(ies) shall not be required for you to revoke a beneficiary designation. If you have designated both primary and contingent beneficiaries and no primary beneficiary(ies) survives you, the contingent beneficiary(ies) shall acquire the designated share of your Roth IRA. If you do not designate a beneficiary, or if all of your primary and contingent beneficiary(ies) predecease you, your estate will be the beneficiary. If your surviving spouse is the designated beneficiary, your spouse may elect to treat your Roth IRA as his or her own Roth IRA, and would not be subject to the required minimum distribution rules. Your surviving spouse will also be entitled to such additional beneficiary payment options as are granted under the Code or applicable Regulations. We may allow, if permitted by state law, an original Roth IRA beneficiary(ies) (the beneficiary(ies) who is entitled to receive distribution(s) from an inherited Roth IRA at the time of your death) to name a successor beneficiary(ies) for the inherited Roth IRA. This designation can only be made on a form provided by or acceptable to us, and it will only be effective when it is filed with us during the original Roth IRA beneficiary s(ies ) lifetime.

The consent of a successor beneficiary(ies) shall not be required for the original Roth IRA beneficiary(ies) to revoke a successor beneficiary(ies) designation. If the original Roth IRA beneficiary(ies) does not designate a successor beneficiary(ies), his or her estate will be the successor beneficiary.

We can resign as Custodian at any time effective 30 days after we mail written notice of our resignation to you. Upon receipt of that notice, you must make arrangements to transfer your Roth IRA to another financial organization. If you do not complete a transfer of your Roth IRA within 30 days from the date we mail the notice to you, we have the right to transfer your Roth IRA assets to a successor Roth IRA custodian or trustee that we choose in our sole discretion, or we may pay your Roth IRA to you in a single sum. We shall not be liable for any actions or failures to act on the part of any successor custodian or trustee, nor for any tax consequences you may incur that result from the transfer or distribution of your assets pursuant to this section. If this Agreement is terminated, we may charge to your Roth IRA a reasonable amount of money that we believe is necessary to cover any associated costs, including but not limited to, one or more of the following: any fees, expenses or taxes chargeable against your Roth IRA; any penalties or surrender charges associated with the early withdrawal of any savings instrument or other investment in your Roth IRA. If we are required to comply with Regulations section (e), and we fail to do so, or we are not keeping the records, making the returns or sending the statements as are required by forms or Regulations, the IRS may, after notifying you, require you to substitute another trustee or custodian. We may establish a policy requiring distribution of the entire balance of your Roth IRA to you in cash or property if the balance of your Roth IRA drops below the minimum balance required under the applicable investment or policy established Successor Custodian: If our organization changes its name, reorganizes, merges with another organization (or comes under the control of any federal or state agency), or if our entire organization (or any portion which includes your Roth IRA) is bought by another organization, that organization (or agency) shall automatically become the trustee or custodian of your Roth IRA, but only if it is the type of organization authorized to serve as a Roth IRA trustee or custodian Amendments: We have the right to amend this Agreement at any time. Any amendment we make to comply with the Code and related Regulations does not require your consent. You will be deemed to have consented to any other amendment unless, within 30 days from the date we mail the amendment, you notify us in writing that you do not consent Withdrawals or Transfers: All requests for withdrawal or transfer shall be in writing on a form provided by or acceptable to us. The method of distribution must be specified in writing. The tax identification number of the recipient must be provided to us before we are obligated to make a distribution. Withdrawals shall be subject to all applicable tax and other laws and regulations, including possible early withdrawal penalties or surrender charges and withholding requirements. You are not required to take a distribution from your Roth IRA at age At your death, however, your beneficiary(ies) must begin taking distributions in accordance with Article V and Section 9.06 of this Agreement. We will make no distributions to you from your Roth IRA until you provide us with a written request for a distribution on a form provided by or acceptable to us Transfers from Other Plans: We can receive amounts transferred to this Roth IRA from the custodian or trustee of another Roth IRA as permitted by the Code. We reserve the right not to accept any transfer Liquidation of Assets: We have the right to liquidate assets in your Roth IRA if necessary to make distributions or to pay fees, expenses, taxes, penalties or surrender charges properly chargeable against your Roth IRA.

8 General Instructions Section references are to the Internal Revenue Code unless otherwise noted. Purpose of Form Form 5305-RA is a model custodial account agreement that meets the requirements of section 408A and has been pre-approved by the IRS. A Roth Individual Retirement Account (Roth IRA) is established after the form is fully executed by both the individual (Depositor) and the Custodian. This account must be created in the United States for the exclusive benefit of the Depositor and his or her beneficiaries. Do not file Form 5305-RA with the IRS. Instead, keep it with your records. Unlike contributions to Traditional individual retirement arrangements, contributions to a Roth IRA are not deductible from the Depositor s gross income; and distributions after 5 years that are made when the Depositor is years of age or older or on account of death, disability, or the purchase of a home by a first-time homebuyer (limited to $10,000), are not includible in gross income. For more information on Roth IRAs, including the required disclosures the Custodian must give the Depositor, see Pub. 590, Individual Retirement Arrangements (IRAs). Definitions IRA Conversion Contributions. IRA Conversion Contributions are amounts rolled over, transferred, or considered transferred from a nonroth IRA to a Roth IRA. A nonroth IRA is an individual retirement account or annuity described in section 408(a) or 408(b), other than a Roth IRA. Custodian. The custodian must be a bank or savings and loan association, as defined in section 408(n), or any person who has the approval of the IRS to act as custodian. Depositor. The depositor is the person who establishes the custodial account. Specific Instructions Article I. The Depositor may be subject to a 6% tax on excess contributions if (1) contributions to other individual retirement arrangements of the Depositor have been made for the same tax year, (2) the Depositor s adjusted gross income exceeds the applicable limits in Article II for the tax year, or (3) the Depositor s and spouse s compensation is less than the amount contributed by or on behalf of them for the tax year. The Depositor should see the Disclosure Statement or Pub. 590 for more information. Article V. This article describes how distributions will be made from the Roth IRA after the Depositor s death. Elections made pursuant to this article should be reviewed periodically to ensure they correspond to the Depositor s intent. Under paragraph 3 of Article V, the Depositor s spouse is treated as the owner of the Roth IRA upon the death of the Depositor, rather than as the beneficiary. If the spouse is to be treated as the beneficiary, and not the owner, an overriding provision should be added to Article IX. Article IX. Article IX and any that follow it may incorporate additional provisions that are agreed to by the Depositor and Custodian to complete the agreement. They may include, for example, definitions, investment powers, voting rights, exculpatory provisions, amendment and termination, removal of the Custodian, Custodian s fees, state law requirements, beginning date of distributions, accepting only cash, treatment of excess contributions, prohibited transactions with the Depositor, etc. Attach additional pages if necessary.

10 DISCLOSURE STATEMENT RIGHT TO REVOKE YOUR ROTH IRA You have the right to revoke your Roth IRA within seven (7) days of the receipt of the Disclosure Statement. If revoked, you are entitled to a full return of the contribution you made to your Roth IRA. The amount returned to you would not include an adjustment for such items as sales commissions, administrative expenses, or fluctuation in market value. You may make this revocation only by mailing or delivering a written notice to the Custodian at the address listed on the Application. If you send your notice by first class mail, your revocation will be deemed mailed as of the postmark date. If you have any questions about the procedure for revoking your Roth IRA, please call the Custodian at the telephone number listed on the Application. REQUIREMENTS OF A ROTH IRA A. CASH CONTRIBUTIONS Your contribution must be in cash, unless it is a rollover or conversion contribution. B. MAXIMUM CONTRIBUTION The total amount you may contribute to a Roth IRA for any taxable year cannot exceed the lesser of 100 percent of your compensation or $3,000 for years , $4,000 for years , and $5,000 for 2008, with possible cost-of-living adjustments in years 2009 and thereafter. If you also maintain a Traditional IRA (i.e., an IRA subject to the limits of Internal Revenue Code (Code) sections 408(a) or 408(b)), the maximum contribution to your Roth IRAs is reduced by any contributions you make to your Traditional IRA. Your total annual contribution to all Traditional IRAs and Roth IRAs cannot exceed the lesser of the dollar amounts described above or 100 percent of your compensation. Your Roth IRA contribution is further limited if your modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) equals or exceeds $150,000 if you are a married individual filing a joint income tax return, or equals or exceeds $95,000 if you are a single individual. Married individuals filing a joint income tax return with MAGI equaling or exceeding $160,000 may not fund a Roth IRA. Single individuals with MAGI equaling or exceeding $110,000 may not fund a Roth IRA. Married individuals filing a separate income tax return with MAGI equaling or exceeding $10,000 may not fund a Roth IRA. The MAGI limits described above are subject to cost-of-living increases for tax years beginning after If you are married filing a joint income tax return and your MAGI is between the applicable MAGI phaseout range for the year, your maximum Roth IRA contribution is determined as follows: (1) Begin with the appropriate MAGI phase-out maximum for the applicable year and subtract your MAGI from it; (2) divide the result by the difference between the phase-out range maximum and minimum; and (3) multiply this number by the maximum allowable contribution for the year, including catch-up contributions if you are age 50 or older. For example, if you are age 30 and your MAGI is $155,000, your maximum Roth IRA contribution for 2002 is $1,500. This amount is determined as follows: [($160,000 minus $155,000) divided by $10,000] multiplied by $3,000. If you are single and your MAGI is between the applicable MAGI phaseout for the year, your maximum Roth IRA contribution is determined as follows: (1) Begin with the appropriate MAGI phase-out maximum for the applicable year and subtract your MAGI from it; (2) divide the result by the difference between the phase-out range maximum and minimum; and (3) multiply this number by the maximum allowable contribution for the year, including catch-up contributions if you are age 50 or older. For example, if you are age 30 and your MAGI is $98,000, your maximum Roth IRA contribution for 2002 is $2,400. This amount is determined as follows: [($110,000 minus $98,000) divided by $15,000] multiplied by $3,000. C. CONTRIBUTION ELIGIBILITY You are eligible to make a regular contribution to your Roth IRA, regardless of your age, if you have compensation and your MAGI is below the maximum threshold. Your Roth IRA contribution is not limited by your participation in a retirement plan, other than a Traditional IRA. D. CATCH-UP CONTRIBUTION If you are age 50 or older by the close of the taxable year, you may make an additional contribution to your Roth IRA. The maximum additional contribution is $500 for years and $1,000 for years 2006 and beyond. E. CATCH-UP CONTRIBUTIONS ALLOWED IN CERTAIN EMPLOYER BANKRUPTCIES You may be eligible to contribute an additional catch-up contribution of up to $3,000 each year in 2006 through To be eligible, the following conditions must be met: 1) you were a participant in a 401(k) plan in which the employer matched at least 50% of your contributions to the plan with employer stock, 2) the employer must have been a debtor in a bankruptcy case in an earlier year and must have been indicted or convicted as a result of the events leading up to the bankruptcy, and 3) you must have been a participant in the 401(k) plan at least six months before the bankruptcy case was filed. If you choose to make these special catch-up contributions, you will not be eligible for the normal catch-up contribution for individuals age 50 and older. FIN230-5 (5/2009) F. NONFORFEITABILITY Your interest in your Roth IRA is nonforfeitable. G. ELIGIBLE CUSTODIANS The Custodian of your Roth IRA must be a bank, savings and loan association, credit union, or a person or entity approved by the Secretary of the Treasury. H. COMMINGLING ASSETS The assets of your Roth IRA cannot be commingled with other property except in a common trust fund or common investment fund. I. LIFE INSURANCE No portion of your Roth IRA may be invested in life insurance contracts. J. COLLECTIBLES You may not invest the assets of your Roth IRA in collectibles (within the meaning of Code section 408(m)). A collectible is defined as any work of art, rug or antique, metal or gem, stamp or coin, alcoholic beverage, or other tangible personal property specified by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). However, specially minted United States gold and silver coins, and certain stateissued coins are permissible investments. Platinum coins and certain gold, silver, platinum or palladium bullion (as described in Code section 408(m)(3)) are also permitted as Roth IRA investments. K. BENEFICIARY PAYOUTS Your designated beneficiary is determined based on the beneficiary(ies) designated as of the date of your death who remains your beneficiary(ies) as of September 30 of the year following the year of your death. The entire amount remaining in your account will, at the election of your beneficiary(ies), either 1. be distributed by December 31 of the year containing the fifth anniversary of your death, or 2. be distributed over the remaining life expectancy of your designated beneficiary(ies). If your spouse is your sole designated beneficiary, he or she must elect either option (1) or (2) by the earlier of December 31 of the year containing the fifth anniversary of your death, or December 31 of the year you would have attained age Your designated beneficiary(ies), other than a spouse who is the sole designated beneficiary, must elect either option (1) or (2) by December 31 of the year following the year of your death. If no election is made, distribution will be calculated in accordance with option (2). In the case of distributions under option (2), distributions must commence by December 31 of the year following the year of your death. Generally if your spouse is the designated beneficiary, distributions need not commence until December 31 of the year you would have attained age , if later. If a beneficiary(ies) other than an individual or qualified trust as defined in the Regulations is named, you will be treated as having no designated beneficiary(ies) of your Roth IRA for purposes of determining the distribution period. If there is no designated beneficiary of your Roth IRA, the entire Roth IRA must be distributed by December 31 of the year containing the fifth anniversary of your death. A spouse who is the sole designated beneficiary of your entire Roth IRA will be deemed to elect to treat your Roth IRA as his or her own by either (1) making contributions to your Roth IRA or (2) failing to timely remove a required minimum distribution from your Roth IRA. Regardless of whether or not the spouse is the sole designated beneficiary of your Roth IRA, a spouse beneficiary may roll over his or her share of the assets to his or her own Roth IRA. L. WAIVER OF 2009 BENEFICIARY PAYMENT No beneficiary life expectancy payments are required from an inherited Roth IRA for calendar year If the five year rule applies to a Roth IRA with respect to any decedent, the five year period is determined without regard to calendar year For example, if a Roth IRA owner died in 2007, the beneficiary s five year period ends in 2013 instead of INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF ESTABLISHING A ROTH IRA A. CONTRIBUTIONS NOT DEDUCTED No deduction is allowed for Roth IRA contributions, including transfers, rollovers and conversion contributions. B. CONTRIBUTION DEADLINE The deadline for making a Roth IRA contribution is your tax return due date (not including extensions). You may designate a contribution as a contribution for the preceding taxable year in a manner acceptable to us. For example, if you are a calendar year taxpayer, and you make your Roth IRA contribution on or before April 15, your contribution is considered to have been made for the previous tax year if you designate it as such. C. TAX CREDIT FOR CONTRIBUTIONS You may be eligible to receive a tax credit for your Roth IRA contributions. This credit may not exceed $1,000 in a given year. You may be eligible for this tax credit if you are age 18 or older as of the close of the taxable year, not a dependent of another taxpayer, and not a full-time student Ascensus, Inc., Brainerd, MN
11 The credit is based upon your income (see chart below), and will range from 0 to 50 percent of eligible contributions. In order to determine the amount of your contributions, add all of the contributions made to your Roth IRA and reduce these contributions by any distributions that you have taken during the testing period. The testing period begins two years prior to the year for which the credit is sought and ends on the tax return due date (including extensions) for the year for which the credit is sought. In order to determine your tax credit, multiply the applicable percentage from the chart below by the amount of your contributions that do not exceed $2,000.

AGI limits are subject to cost-of-living adjustments for tax years beginning after D. TAX-DEFERRED EARNINGS The investment earnings of your Roth IRA are not subject to federal income tax as they accumulate in your Roth IRA. In addition, distributions of your Roth IRA earnings will be free from federal income tax if you take a qualified distribution, as described below. E. TAXATION OF DISTRIBUTIONS The taxation of Roth IRA distributions depends on whether the distribution is a qualified distribution or a nonqualified distribution. 1. Qualified Distributions Qualified distributions from your Roth IRA (both the contributions and earnings) are not included in your income. A qualified distribution is a distribution which is made after the expiration of the five-year period beginning January 1 of the first year for which you made a contribution to any Roth IRA (including a conversion from a Traditional IRA), and is made on account of one of the following events: attainment of age , disability, the purchase of a first home, or death. For example, if you made a contribution to your Roth IRA for 1998, the fiveyear period for determining whether a distribution is a qualified distribution is satisfied as of January 1, Nonqualified Distributions If you do not meet the requirements for a qualified distribution, any earnings you withdraw from your Roth IRA will be included in your gross income and, if you are under age , may be subject to an early distribution penalty. However, when you take a distribution, the amounts you contributed annually to any Roth IRA account and any military death gratuity or Servicemembers Group Life Insurance (SGLI) payments that you rolled over to a Roth IRA, will be deemed to be removed first, followed by conversion contributions made to any Roth IRA on a first-in, firstout basis. Therefore, your nonqualified distributions will not be taxable to you until your withdrawals exceed the amount of your annual contributions, military death gratuity or SGLI payments, and your conversions. F. REQUIRED MINIMUM DISTRIBUTIONS You are not required to take distributions from your Roth IRA at age (as required for Traditional and SIMPLE IRAs). However, your beneficiary(ies) is generally required to take distributions from your Roth IRA after your death. See the section titled Beneficiary Payouts in this Disclosure Statement regarding beneficiary s(ies ) required minimum distributions. G. ROLLOVERS AND CONVERSIONS Your Roth IRA may be rolled over to another Roth IRA of yours, may receive rollover contributions, or may receive conversion contributions provided that all of the applicable rollover or conversion rules are followed. Rollover is a term used to describe a tax-free movement of cash or other property to your Roth IRA from another Roth IRA. Conversion is a term used to describe the movement of Traditional IRA or SIMPLE IRA assets to a Roth IRA. A conversion is generally a taxable event. The rollover and conversion rules are generally summarized below. These transactions are often complex. If you have any questions regarding a rollover or conversion, please see a competent tax advisor. 1. Roth IRA to Roth IRA Rollovers Funds distributed from your Roth IRA may be rolled over to a Roth IRA of yours if the requirements of Code section 408(d)(3) are met. A proper Roth IRA to Roth IRA rollover is completed if all or part of the distribution is rolled over not later than 60 days after the distribution is received. You may not have completed another Roth IRA to Roth IRA rollover from the distributing Roth IRA during the 12 months preceding the date you receive the distribution. Further, you may roll over the same dollars or assets only once every 12 months. Roth IRA assets may not be rolled over to other types of IRAs (e.g., Traditional IRA, SIMPLE IRA). FIN230-5 (5/2009) 2. Traditional IRA to Roth IRA Conversions If your MAGI is not more than $100,000 and you are not married filing a separate income tax return, you are eligible to convert all or any portion of your existing Traditional IRA(s) into your Roth IRA(s). Beginning in 2010, the $100,000 MAGI limit and the married filing separate tax filing restriction will be eliminated for conversion eligibility. If you are age or older you must remove your required minimum distribution prior to converting your Traditional IRA. The amount of the conversion from your Traditional IRA to your Roth IRA shall be treated as a distribution for income tax purposes, and is includible in your gross income (except for any nondeductible contributions). Although the conversion amount is generally included in income, the 10 percent early distribution penalty shall not apply to conversions from a Traditional IRA to a Roth IRA, regardless of whether you qualify for any exceptions to the 10 percent penalty. 3. SIMPLE IRA to Roth IRA Conversions If your MAGI is not more than $100,000 and you are not married filing a separate income tax return, you are eligible to convert all or any portion of your existing savings incentive match plan for employees of small employers (SIMPLE) IRA(s) into your Roth IRA(s), provided two years have passed since you first participated in a SIMPLE IRA plan sponsored by your employer. Beginning in 2010, the $100,000 MAGI limit and the married filing separate tax filing restriction will be eliminated for conversion eligibility. If you are age or older you must remove your required minimum distribution prior to converting your SIMPLE IRA. The amount of the conversion from your SIMPLE IRA to your Roth IRA shall be treated as a distribution for income tax purposes and is includible in your gross income. Although the conversion amount is generally included in income, the 10 percent early distribution penalty shall not apply to conversions from a SIMPLE IRA to a Roth IRA, regardless of whether you qualify for any exceptions to the 10 percent penalty. 4. Rollovers of Roth Elective Deferrals Roth elective deferrals distributed from a 401(k) cash or deferred arrangement or 403(b) tax-sheltered annuity may be rolled into your Roth IRA. 5. Rollovers from Employer-Sponsored Retirement Plans Distributions taken from your qualified retirement plan, 403(a) annuity, 403(b) tax-sheltered annuity, or 457(b) governmental deferred compensation plan after December 31, 2007 may be rolled over to your Roth IRA. If you are a spouse, nonspouse, or qualified trust beneficiary who has inherited a qualified retirement plan, 403(a) annuity, 403(b) tax-sheltered annuity, or 457(b) governmental deferred compensation plan, you may be eligible to directly roll over the assets to an inherited Roth IRA. The inherited Roth IRA is subject to the beneficiary distribution requirements. Roth IRA conversion rules, as described above, will apply to rollovers by beneficiaries or plan participants, including the requirement to include the taxable portion in income in the year distributed. 6. Beneficiary Rollovers from 401(k) or 403(b) Plans Containing Roth Elective Deferrals If you are a spouse, nonspouse, or qualified trust beneficiary of a deceased 401(k) or 403(b) plan participant who had made Roth elective deferrals to the plan, you may directly roll over the Roth elective deferrals, and their earnings, to an inherited Roth IRA. The Roth IRA must be maintained as an inherited Roth IRA, subject to the beneficiary distribution requirements. 7. Rollover of Military Death Benefits If you receive or have received a military death gratuity or a payment from the Servicemembers Group Life Insurance (SGLI) program, you may be able to roll over the proceeds to your Roth IRA. The rollover contribution amount is limited to the sum of the death benefits or SGLI payment received, less any such amount that was rolled over to a Coverdell education savings account. Proceeds must be rolled over within one year of receipt of the gratuity or SGLI payment for deaths occurring on or after June 17, For deaths occurring between October 7, 2001 and June 17, 2008, proceeds may be rolled over no later than one year from June 17, Any amount that is rolled over under this provision is considered nontaxable basis in your Roth IRA. 8. Qualified HSA Funding Distribution If you are eligible to contribute to a health savings account (HSA), you may be eligible to take a one-time tax-free HSA funding distribution from your Roth IRA and directly deposit it to your HSA. The amount of the qualified HSA funding distribution may not exceed the maximum HSA contribution limit in effect for the type of high deductible health plan coverage (i.e., single or family coverage) that you have at the time of the deposit, and counts toward your HSA contribution limit for that year. For further detailed information, you may wish to obtain IRS Publication 969, Health Savings Accounts and Other Tax-Favored Health Plans. 9. Rollovers of Settlement Payments from Bankrupt Airlines If you are a qualified airline employee who has received an airline settlement payment from a commercial airline carrier under the approval of an order of a Federal bankruptcy court in a case filed after September 11, 2001, and before January 1, 2007, you are allowed to roll over any portion of the proceeds into your Roth IRA by the later of 180 days after receipt of such amount, or June 21, To obtain more information on this type of rollover, you may wish to visit the IRS website at Ascensus, Inc., Brainerd, MN
12 10. Rollover of Exxon Valdez Settlement Payments If you receive a qualified settlement payment from Exxon Valdez litigation, you may roll over the amount of the settlement, up to $100,000, reduced by the amount of any qualified Exxon Valdez settlement income previously contributed to a Traditional or Roth IRA or eligible retirement plan in prior taxable years. You will have until your tax return due date (not including tax extensions) for the year in which the qualified settlement income is received to make the rollover contribution. To obtain more information on this type of rollover, you may wish to visit the IRS website at Written Election At the time you make a proper rollover or conversion to a Roth IRA, you must designate in writing to us, your election to treat that contribution as a rollover or conversion. Once made, the election is irrevocable. H. TRANSFER DUE TO DIVORCE If all or any part of your Roth IRA is awarded to your spouse or former spouse in a divorce or legal separation proceeding, the amount so awarded will be treated as the spouse s Roth IRA (and may be transferred pursuant to a court-approved divorce decree or written legal separation agreement to another Roth IRA of your spouse), and will not be considered a taxable distribution to you. A transfer is a tax-free direct movement of cash and/or property from one Roth IRA to another. I. RECHARACTERIZATIONS If you make a contribution to a Traditional IRA and later recharacterize either all or a portion of the original contribution to a Roth IRA along with net income attributable, you may elect to treat the original contribution as having been made to the Roth IRA. The same methodology applies when recharacterizing a contribution from a Roth IRA to a Traditional IRA. If you have converted from a Traditional IRA to a Roth IRA you may recharacterize the conversion along with net income attributable back to the Traditional IRA. The deadline for completing a recharacterization is your tax filing deadline (including any extensions), for the year for which the original contribution was made or conversion completed. LIMITATIONS AND RESTRICTIONS A. SPOUSAL ROTH IRA If you are married and have compensation, you may contribute to a Roth IRA established for the benefit of your spouse, regardless of whether or not your spouse has compensation. You must file a joint income tax return for the year for which the contribution is made. Your contribution may be further limited if your MAGI falls within the minimum and maximum thresholds. The amount you may contribute to your Roth IRA and your spouse s Roth IRA is the lesser of 100 percent of your combined compensation or $6,000 for , $8,000 for and $10,000 for This amount may be increased with cost-of-living adjustments in 2009 and beyond. However, you may not contribute more than the individual contribution limit to each Roth IRA. Your contribution may be further limited if your MAGI falls within the minimum and maximum thresholds. If your spouse is age 50 or older by the close of the taxable year, and is otherwise eligible, you may make an additional contribution to your spouse s Roth IRA. The maximum additional contribution is $500 for years , and $1,000 for years 2006 and beyond. B. GIFT TAX Transfers of your Roth IRA assets to a beneficiary made during your life and at your request may be subject to federal gift tax under Code section C. SPECIAL TAX TREATMENT Capital gains treatment and 10-year forward income averaging authorized by Code section 402 do not apply to Roth IRA distributions. D. INCOME TAX TREATMENT Any nonqualified withdrawal of earnings from your Roth IRA may be subject to federal income tax withholding. You may, however, elect not to have withholding apply to your Roth IRA withdrawal. If withholding is applied to your withdrawal, not less than 10 percent of the amount withdrawn must be withheld. E. PROHIBITED TRANSACTIONS If you or your beneficiary engage in a prohibited transaction with your Roth IRA, as described in Code section 4975, your Roth IRA will lose its tax-deferred or tax-exempt status, and you must generally include the value of the earnings in your account in your gross income for the taxable year you engage in the prohibited transaction. The following transactions are examples of prohibited transactions with your Roth IRA: (1) taking a loan from your Roth IRA; (2) buying property for personal use (present or future) with Roth IRA funds; or (3) receiving certain bonuses or premiums because of your Roth IRA. F. PLEDGING If you pledge any portion of your Roth IRA as collateral for a loan, the amount so pledged will be treated as a distribution, and may be included in your gross income for the taxable year in which you pledge the assets to the extent it represents earnings. FEDERAL TAX PENALTIES A. EARLY DISTRIBUTION PENALTY If you are under age and receive a nonqualified Roth IRA distribution, an additional tax of 10 percent will generally apply to the amount includible in income in the year of the distribution. If you are under age and receive a distribution of conversion amounts within the fiveyear period beginning with the year in which the conversion occurred, an additional tax of 10 percent will generally apply to the amount of the distribution. The additional tax of 10 percent will generally not apply if a distribution is made on account of 1) death, 2) disability, 3) a qualifying rollover, 4) the timely withdrawal of an excess contribution, 5) a series of substantially equal periodic payments (at least annual payments) made over your life expectancy or the joint life expectancy of you and your beneficiary, 6) medical expenses which exceed 7.5 percent of your adjusted gross income, 7) health insurance payments if you are separated from employment and have received unemployment compensation under a federal or state program for at least 12 weeks, 8) certain qualified education expenses, 9) first-home purchases (up to a life-time maximum of $10,000), 10) a levy issued by the IRS, or 11) active military duty (see Qualified Reservist Distributions, below). B. EXCESS CONTRIBUTION PENALTY An additional tax of six percent is imposed upon any excess contribution you make to your Roth IRA. This additional tax will apply each year in which an excess remains in your Roth IRA. An excess contribution is any amount that is contributed to your Roth IRA that exceeds the amount that you are eligible to contribute. C. EXCESS ACCUMULATION PENALTY As previously described, your beneficiary(ies) is generally required to take certain required minimum distributions after your death. An additional tax of 50 percent is imposed on the amount of the required minimum distribution which should have been taken but was not. D.

16 Rules And Conditions Applicable To Rollovers GENERAL INFORMATION A rollover is a way to move money or property from one Roth IRA or eligible retirement plan to another Roth IRA. The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) limits how many distributions may be rolled over, how quickly they must be completed and how the Trustee or Custodian must report them. By properly completing this form you are certifying to the Trustee or Custodian that you have satisfied the rules and conditions applicable to a rollover and that you are making an irrevocable election to treat the transaction as a rollover. ROTH IRA TO ROTH IRA ROLLOVER REQUIREMENTS (Option One) 1. TIMELINESS The funds you receive from the distributing Roth IRA must be deposited into another Roth IRA within 60 days after you receive them. However, this period is 120 days for certain rollovers relating to first-home purchases. When counting the 60 (or 120) days include weekends and holidays. Receipt generally means the day you actually have the funds in hand. For example, the 60 days would begin on the day following the day you pick up the check from the Trustee or Custodian or you receive the check in the mail. The IRS has the authority to grant extensions to the 60 (or 120) day rule in cases where a hardship would be related (e.g., casualty, disaster, etc.). Generally, in order to receive this relief you must apply for a Private Letter Ruling accompanied by the applicable user fee. An automatic waiver (no application to the IRS) is available if all the following are true: (1) the financial institution receives the funds prior to the expiration of the 60-day rollover period, (2) you follow all procedures required for depositing the funds into an eligible Roth IRA within the 60-day period, (3) the funds are not deposited due to financial institution error, (4) the funds are deposited into a Roth IRA within one year from the beginning of the 60-day rollover period, and (5) if the financial institution had deposited the funds as instructed, it would have been a valid rollover. 2. TWELVE MONTH RESTRICTION You are entitled to one distribution per year per Roth IRA which may be rolled over. Twelve (12) months must pass after receipt of one distribution which you roll over before you may take another distribution from the same Roth IRA to roll over. A Roth IRA is created by executing a plan agreement, not by depositing a contribution into a separate investment within an existing Roth IRA. You are entitled to roll over the same assets only once in a twelve (12) month period. Twelve (12) months must elapse between the time you receive a distribution of the assets to be rolled over until the time you receive another distribution of those same assets for rollover purposes. ELIGIBLE RETIREMENT PLAN TO ROTH IRA ROLLOVER REQUIREMENTS (Option Two) 1. ELIGIBLE PERSON Only an eligible person may roll funds from a 401(a), 403(b), or 457(b) Plan, into a Roth IRA. You will only be an eligible person if you were or are a participant in the distributing plan, the surviving spouse beneficiary of a deceased participant, or the alternate payee identified in a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO). A QDRO is a domestic relations order issued in a divorce proceeding which meets certain conditions and grants to an alternate payee (e.g., exspouse) the right to receive all or a portion of a participant s benefits under a QRP. If the alternate payee is a spouse or former spouse, the alternate payee may be able to roll over all or a portion of the amount received to a Roth IRA. In order to roll over retirement plan assets, other than designated Roth 401(k) or 403(b) contributions, you must meet the following eligibility requirements. If your modified adjusted gross income is not more than $100,000, and you are not married filing a separate income tax return, you are eligible to roll over the retirement plan assets to a Roth IRA. Beginning in 2010, these eligibility requirements will be eliminated. A nonspouse beneficiary may only roll over to an inherited Roth IRA. A rollover to an inherited Roth IRA must be done as a direct rollover from an eligible retirement plan. 2. ELIGIBLE PLAN A distribution will not be eligible to be rolled over unless that distribution is made from an eligible retirement plan. An eligible retirement plan is a plan that is qualified under IRC Section 401(a), 403(b), or 457(b). 3. ELIGIBLE ROLLOVER DEPOSIT Only certain types of eligible retirement plan distributions, called eligible rollover distributions, may be deposited into a Roth IRA. Eligible rollover distributions include most distributions from eligible plans except the following: Required Minimum Distributions Distributions which represent required minimum distributions paid during a participant s first distribution calendar year or later may not be rolled over. Substantially Equal Periodic Payments For purposes of determining an eligible rollover distribution, substantially equal periodic payments are defined as a series of substantially equal distributions made not less frequently than annually and calculated 1) over the life (or life expectancy) of the individual or the joint lives (or life expectancies) of the individual and the individual s beneficiary or, 2) for a specified period of 10 years or more. P.S. 58 Costs If you received distribution of a life insurance policy from a plan, the amounts attributable to the cost of life insurance purchased by the plan which have been previously taxed to the participant may not be rolled over. Property Distributions If property other than cash is distributed, only the same property or the proceeds from its sale may be rolled over. If you receive property but wish to roll over cash, you must actually sell the property and roll over the proceeds. Hardship Distributions Distributions taken on account of financial hardship are not eligible to be rolled over. Roth 401(k) or 403(b) Amounts Distributions of elective deferrals from a Roth 401(k) or 403(b) plan are eligible to be rolled over to a Roth IRA without tax consequences. 4. TIMELINESS If the check is payable to you, the funds you receive from the distributing plan must be deposited in a Roth IRA within 60 days after you receive them. When counting the 60 days include weekends and holidays. Receipt generally means the day you actually have the funds in hand. The IRS has the authority to grant extensions to the 60 day rule in cases where a hardship occurs (e.g. casualty, disaster, etc.). Generally, in order to receive this relief you must apply for a Private Letter Ruling accompanied by the applicable user fee. An automatic waiver (no application to the IRS) is available if all the following are true: (1) the financial institution receives the funds prior to the expiration of the 60-day rollover period, (2) you follow all procedures required for depositing the funds into an eligible Roth IRA within the 60-day period, (3) the funds are not deposited due to financial institution error, (4) the funds are deposited into a Roth IRA within one year from the beginning of the 60-day rollover period, and (5) if the financial institution had deposited the funds as instructed, it would have been a valid rollover. MILITARY DEATH GRATUITY AND SGLI PAYMENT ROLLOVER REQUIREMENTS (Option Three) AMOUNT AND TIMELINESS If you have received a military death gratuity or a payment from the Servicemembers Group Life Insurance program, you may be able to roll over the proceeds to a Roth IRA. The rollover contribution amount is limited to the sum of the death benefits received, less any such amount that was rolled over to a Coverdell education savings account. Proceeds must be rolled over within one year of receipt of the gratuity or SGLI payment for deaths occurring on or after June 17, For deaths occurring between October 7, 2001 and June 17, 2008, proceeds may be rolled over no later than one year from June 17, FIN234-5 (5/2009) Page 2 of Ascensus, Inc., Brainerd, MN

18 ALLSTATE BANK DEPOSIT ACCOUNT AGREEMENT AND DISCLOSURE as of March, 2010 FIN791-4
19 Table of Contents Section Page Number Introduction 4 U. S. A. PATRIOT Act 11 Funds Availability Policy 11 Truth In Savings 13 Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act 16 Electronic Funds Transfer Agreement and Disclosure 16 Allstate Bank Privacy Policy 24 Schedule of Fees 26 DEPOSIT ACCOUNT AGREEMENT AND DISCLOSURE (As of March, 2010) INTRODUCTION. This Deposit Account Agreement and Disclosure (the "Deposit Agreement") contains the terms and conditions governing checking, savings and time and other deposit accounts (collectively "Accounts and individually Account ) opened at Allstate Bank (the "Bank"). As used in this Agreement, the terms "you" or "your" refer to each and all of the persons having an ownership interest in and the right to withdraw funds from an Account, as reflected on the Bank's records. The terms "we," "our" or "us" refer to the Bank. As used in this Deposit Agreement, the term "Agreement" means this Deposit Agreement, your account application, your current signature card, our Funds Availability Policy Disclosure, our Truth in Savings Disclosure, our Fee Schedule, and our Electronic Funds Transfer Agreement and Disclosure and, if you have an overdraft line of credit, our Overdraft Account Agreement and Disclosure. Each person signing a signature card for an Account acknowledges receipt of this Agreement, and agrees to its terms, as amended from time to time. DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS. From time to time, you may open a variety of Accounts. Each Account we offer is subject to these general terms and conditions and any specific terms and conditions relating to that type of account that may be set forth in this Agreement or established by the Bank. If you open more than one Account, this Agreement will cover all your Accounts with us. You must be age 18 or older to open an Account. FDIC INSURANCE COVERAGE. Deposit accounts at the Bank are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") as provided by law. Please talk to a Customer Care Representative if you need more information about FDIC insurance. INCOMPLETE ACCOUNT APPLICATIONS. If you submit an incomplete application for an Account, we cannot process the application or open the Account until we have received all of the necessary information to complete the application. Any funds received for deposit will be held without being credited to an Account or being credited interest until the application is completed and approved. If the application is not approved, the funds will be returned to you without interest. FORMS OF OWNERSHIP. We offer several forms of Account ownership: individual accounts, joint accounts with right of survivorship, payable on death, fiduciary, sole proprietor and organization accounts. The form of ownership for your Account is shown on the Account application. The terms that apply to each form of ownership are as follows: (a) Individual Accounts. An Individual Account is an account in the name of only one owner. Only that person, the person's duly appointed agent (if a power of attorney that we have approved is on file with us), or the person's duly appointed legal representative (if we have received proper evidence of appointment), may write checks against the Account or authorize withdrawals from the Account. (b) Joint Accounts. A Joint Account is an Account with two owners in which each owner, acting alone, has the current right to withdraw, whether or not any other owner is living. All Joint Accounts will be considered held by the parties as joint tenants with right of survivorship. Upon the death of one of the Joint Account owners, that person's ownership interest in the Account will immediately pass to the other Joint Account owner. Each of you will be jointly and severally liable to us for any debit balance in your Account, including, without limitation, overdrafts and Account charges. Each Joint Account owner, without the consent or joinder of the other Joint Account owner, and whether the other Joint Account owner is living or not, is authorized to transact any business with reference to the Account. This includes, for example, the right to (1) withdraw all or any part of the Account funds, (2) pledge the Account as collateral for any obligation, whether that of one or more Joint Account owners or of a third party, (3) endorse and deposit checks and other items payable to any Joint Account owner, (4) give stop payment orders on any check or item, whether drawn by that Joint Account owner or not, (5) ask us to change the address for the Joint Account owner on our records, and (6) close the Account, with the disbursement of Account proceeds as instructed by the Joint Account owner. Each Joint Account owner is authorized to act for the other Joint Account owner. If we believe there is a dispute between Joint Account owners or if we receive inconsistent instructions from Account owners, we may suspend or close the Account, require a court order to act, and/or require that both Joint Account owners agree in writing to any transaction concerning the Account. The obligations of Joint Account owners under the Agreement are joint and several. This means that each Joint Account owner is fully and personally obligated under the terms of the Agreement, including liability for overdrafts and debit balances as set forth above, irrespective of which Joint Account owner authorized the transaction or whether any Account owner benefited from the withdrawal. If we permit you to establish a Joint Account without the signature of the other Joint Account owner, you agree to hold us harmless for our reliance upon your designation of the other Joint Account owner listed on our records, and you agree to obtain the signature of the other Joint Account owner on documents we require within a reasonable time. A Joint Account is subject to the right of setoff for the debts of any Joint Account owner, as set forth below. 3 (c) Payable on Death Accounts. A Statutory Trust or Payable on Death Account is an Account that shall be held in the name of the person or persons as Trustee(s) payable on the death of the last surviving Trustee to the person or persons(s) designated on the Deposit Account Application Addendum of the Bank (the Beneficiary (ies) ). Any Trustee may change any Beneficiary without the knowledge or consent of any other Trustee or any Beneficiary (ies) by a written instrument accepted by the Bank. Any Trustee may make additional deposits to the Account and withdraw any part or all of the funds on deposit in the Account at any time without the knowledge or consent of any other Trustee or any Beneficiary (ies) subject to the rules of the Account and the Bank. All withdrawals shall constitute a revocation of the agreement as to the amount withdrawn and the Bank shall not be obligated to see to the application of any amounts withdrawn from the Account. Upon the death of the last surviving Trustee of the Account, the balance of the Account shall be paid to the Beneficiary, who is then living. If there are two or more Beneficiaries living at the time of the death of the last surviving Trustee, the balance of the Account shall be paid to the Beneficiaries in equal shares. If no Beneficiary is living at the time of the death of the last surviving Trustee, the 4
20 balance of the Account shall vest in the estate of the last surviving Trustee, and shall be payable to the representative of the Trustee s estate. This type of account is established pursuant to and incorporates by reference the Illinois Trust and Payable on Death Accounts Act as now existing or hereafter amended. (d) Fiduciary Accounts. In a Fiduciary Account one or more persons or institutions will own the Account as a fiduciary such as a guardian, executor or administrator for the benefit of another person or persons. The Bank may, when the Account is opened and from time to time thereafter, require evidence satisfactory to it of the fiduciary s authority to act as a fiduciary. (e) Sole Proprietor Accounts. If the Account is held as a sole proprietor, you agree that your estate shall indemnify and hold the Bank harmless from any claim or demand of any kind concerning any withdrawal or payment made from the Account at the direction of any authorized signer or person on the Account. You represent and warrant to the Bank that if you are doing business under an assumed name, that you have properly filed all assumed name certificates or any other documents or information required by the laws of your state. You agree to notify us promptly of any change in your form of ownership. In the event of the death of the sole proprietor, the balance of the Account shall be payable to the personal representative of the person s estate. (f) Organizational Accounts. Organizational accounts are those accounts that are owned and held by corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies, not-for-profit corporations, governmental units and unincorporated associations (the Organization ). The classification and form of ownership shall be designated on the application or Signature Card and Certification for the Account. You agree to notify us promptly of any change in your form of ownership. You agree that the Account is only payable to or on the order of the Organization and not to any individual director, shareholder, member, partner, manager or official thereof except as they may be a payee on a check or other item drawn on the Account. You represent and warrant to the Bank that the Organization has taken all action necessary to open and maintain the Account and that any resolutions, certifications, authorizations or other documents submitted to the Bank in connection with the Account are true, accurate, completed and will be kept up to date. You, and each person who signs the Signature Card and Certification or other documents for the Account, also represent and warrant to the Bank that each person whose name is listed on the Signature Card and Certification is duly authorized to bind the Organization in all transactions involving the Account. For any transaction involving the Account, we may act on the instructions of any persons we believe are authorized to act on behalf of the Organization. All withdrawals need to be submitted in writing. NOTICE TO CUSTOMERS OF RESTRICTED TRANSACTIONS Transactions that are restricted by the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006 are prohibited from being processed through the account or account relationship. CHECKING ACCOUNTS. We offer three different checking accounts. Our Checking Plus Interest Account is an interest-bearing checking account. Our Regular Checking account does not pay interest. We also offer a Basic Checking account (Senior Value Checking) to persons age 65 and over. You can pick the account that's right for you. Checking Accounts may be opened only by a natural person (not available to organizations). Our Truth in Savings Disclosure contains detailed information on the specific types of Accounts offered, our policies relating to the payment of interest on deposited funds, and any minimum balance requirement that applies to your Account. Our Fee Schedule contains detailed information on the fees and charges applicable to Accounts. SAVINGS ACCOUNTS. We offer three different types of savings accounts. Our Regular Savings Account and Organization Savings is a convenient tool for managing funds and meeting longer-term savings goals. Our Insured Money Market Account (not available to Organizations) offers attractive rates with higher rates paid as your account balance grows. The following terms apply to your Savings Accounts and Insured Money Market Accounts: (a) Transfers and Withdrawals. Per Federal law, you are permitted to make no more than six transfers, withdrawals, or a combination of such transfers and withdrawals, per calendar month, to another account with us or to a third party by means of a preauthorized or automatic transfer, or telephonic (including data transmission) agreement, order or instruction, such transfers may be made by check, draft, debit card, point of sale (POS) or similar order made by you and payable to third parties. A preauthorized transfer includes any arrangement by the Bank to pay a third party from your account upon written or oral instruction (including an order received through an automated clearing house (ACH)) or any arrangement by the Bank to pay a third party from your account at a predetermined time or on a fixed schedule. You may make unlimited withdrawals from the account when such transfers or withdrawals are made by mail, messenger, automated teller machine, or in person or when such withdrawals are made by telephone (via check mailed to the depositor). If you exceed these restrictions federal law requires us to close or convert your account to a checking account for repeated violations. We will use the date the transaction is completed by us (as opposed to the date you initiate it) to apply the frequency limitations. If we honor a nonconforming request, we are not required to do so later. (b) Excess Transactions. In accordance with federal law, if you have more than the allowable preauthorized transfers or checks (for money market accounts) in any calendar month, your Account may be subject to closure by us and the funds placed in another account that you are eligible to maintain, or we may take away the transfer and draft capabilities of the Account. We may also impose a fee on each transaction in excess of legal limits, as stated in the Fee Schedule. TIME DEPOSITS. Time Deposits opened at the Bank are certificates of deposits that are issued in bookentry form. We do not issue a formal certificate. For Time Deposits, you have agreed to keep the funds on deposit until the maturity of your Account. Additional funds may not be added to the Account (other than accrued interest) before the next maturity date. If your Account has not matured, you must obtain 5 our consent to any early withdrawal, and any withdrawal of all or part of the funds from your Account (other than the payment of credited interest, if you have chosen to receive interest and not to allow it to remain in the Account) may result in an early withdrawal penalty. Withdrawal requests to redeem your Organization Time Deposit Account must be in writing. Withdrawal requests received via facsimile will not be accepted without the consent of the Bank. (a) Penalty. The early withdrawal penalty is calculated as a forfeiture of part of the accrued interest that has or would be earned on the Account. If your Account has not yet earned enough interest so that the penalty can be deducted from earned interest, or if the interest already has been paid, the difference will be deducted from the principal amount of your Account. The penalty will be as stated in the Truth in Savings Disclosure. (b) Exceptions. We will let you withdraw money from your Account before the maturity date without the stated early withdrawal penalty: (1) when one or more of the owners dies or is determined legally incompetent by a court or other administrative body of competent jurisdiction; or (2) within an applicable grace period as stated in the Truth in Savings Disclosure, but in that event the deposit will not earn interest after the maturity date. FEES AND CHARGES. Subject to applicable law, you agree to pay us the fees and charges shown in the Fee Schedule that is applicable to your Account and for other services performed by us. You agree that we may change the fees and charges from time to time, and you authorize us to charge your Account for their payment, whether or not any charge results in an overdraft of your Account. Existing and future charges may be based upon the overall costs of providing account services, and may or may not be based upon the direct cost or expense associated with providing the particular service involved. The charges may be based on consideration of profit, competitive position, and deterrence of misuse of account privileges by some customers, and the safety and soundness of the financial institution. We will notify you of the changes as required by law. DEPOSIT RULES. The following terms apply to deposits made to your Account. (a) Endorsements. You authorize us to accept checks and other items for deposit to your Account if they are made payable to, or to the order of, any one or more of you, whether or not they are endorsed by you. You authorize us to supply missing endorsements, and you warrant that all endorsements are genuine. All checks and other items deposited to your Account should be endorsed payable to the order of the Bank for deposit only, followed by your signature and Account number. All endorsements must appear on the back of the check or other item within the first inches from the left side of the item when looking at it from the front. While we may accept nonconforming endorsements, you will be responsible for any loss incurred by us due to the delay in processing the item for payment or in returning it. (b) Final Payment. All non-cash items (for example, checks) deposited to your Account are posted subject to our receipt of final payment by the payor bank. If final payment is not received or if any item deposited to your Account or which you cash is charged back to us for any reason, you authorize us to charge any of your Accounts, without prior notice and at any time, for the amount of the returned item, our returned item fee, any interest paid on that item, and any other fee we pay or incur. We reserve the right to refuse any item for deposit into your Account. (c) Direct Deposits. If we provide direct deposit services for automatic preauthorized deposits to your Account (e.g., payroll or Social Security) or automatic transfers from your other accounts with us, you must notify us at least thirty (30) days prior to the next scheduled direct deposit or preauthorized transfer if you wish to cancel the direct deposit or transfer service. If any amount deposited must be returned to the government for any reason, you authorize us to deduct the amount from your Account as provided in (b) above. (d) Availability of Deposits. Our Funds Availability Policy Disclosure reflects our policies relating to the availability of funds deposited to your checking or savings accounts. (e) Third Party Checks. The Bank does not accept third party checks (i.e., checks initially made payable to another person and endorsed to you). In the event that the Bank receives a third party check, you understand that the Bank will not deposit the check into your account at the Bank. Third party checks will be returned to you via U.S. mail. You agree that the Bank will not be liable to you for failing to deposit a third party check, or for any loss or damages if other items you have issued are not paid as a result of our refusing to deposit or collect third party items. In returning such checks to you, the Bank will not be liable for any checks that may be lost in the mail. (f) Cash Deposits. Please do not mail us cash deposits, (but you may deposit cash at ATMs where available). In the event that cash deposits are received by the Bank, you agree that the Bank's determination of the amount of the deposit will be conclusive. The Bank is not liable for any deposits, including cash, lost in the mail. WITHDRAWAL RULES. The following terms apply to withdrawals from your Account: (a) Manner of Withdrawal. You may make withdrawals from your Account in any manner that is permitted by us for the type of Account that you have opened. Withdrawals by mail will be posted to your Account as of the day the transaction is processed by us. If you do not obtain your checks from us or from a vendor approved by us, you must use a check printer that meets our requirements for check specifications and print quality. If you do not, we may refuse to handle the item. Withdrawals and transfers from your Account may be restricted as provided in the Agreement, or in the Fee Schedule, or by applicable law. (b) Withdrawal Restrictions and Overdrafts. If you do not have sufficient available funds on deposit in the Account, we do not have to allow you to make a withdrawal from your Account and we do 6
21 not have to pay an item drawn on your Account, subject to the terms of any Overdraft Account agreement you have established with us. If there are available funds to cover some, but not all, of the withdrawals or other debits (such as charges) to your Account, we may post those withdrawals or other debits for which there are sufficient available funds in any order we choose at our sole discretion. If there are insufficient available funds to cover some of the withdrawals or debits presented against your Account, such items will be handled in accordance with our overdraft procedures or in accordance with any other agreement you may have with us (such as an Overdraft Account Agreement). If we choose to pay one or more overdrafts, we are not obligated to cover any future overdrafts. We may determine the balance of your Account in connection with determining whether payment of an item will create an overdraft at any time between the time we receive the item and the deadline for us to take action on the item. We are not required to determine your account balance more than one (1) time during this period. A service charge as stated in our Fee Schedule may be assessed on any item or other debit that will overdraw the available account balance, regardless of whether we pay or dishonor (return) the item, unless the item is covered by your overdraft agreement. You agree, immediately upon notice from us, to deposit funds sufficient to cover any overdraft plus any service charges. We will not be liable for the dishonor of any item when the dishonor occurs because we set off a debt against your Account. We also may refuse to allow a withdrawal if there is a dispute about the Account (unless a court has ordered us to allow the withdrawal), the Account is garnished or attached, the Account has been pledged (with our consent) as collateral for a debt, the availability of the funds on deposit cannot be verified, any required documentation has not been presented, or you have failed to repay an obligation to us on time. (c) Notice Requirements. Federal regulations require us to retain the right to require you to give us at least seven (7) days notice in writing prior to any intended withdrawal from an interest bearing checking account, savings account or money market account. Although we usually pay withdrawals or checks without notice on these accounts, doing so does not mean that we give up the right to require the notice. (d) Postdated Items. You agree that when you write a check, you will not date the check in the future. If you do, and the check is presented for payment before the date of the check, we may pay it or return it unpaid. You agree that if we pay the check, the check will be posted to your Account on the date we pay the check, even though the posting date is prior to the date of the check. You further agree that we are not responsible for any loss to you in doing so. However, we won't pay a postdated check before the date on it if you give us advance notice in enough time and in a manner that affords us reasonable opportunity to act. The notice must be in writing and must specify the amount and number of the check, the date you placed on it, and the name of the payee. Notices are effective for the time periods stated under subsection (k) of this section, Stop Payment Orders, and are subject to the same fees. You agree that we may return a postdated check to the presenter. (e) Stale Checks. We reserve the right to pay or dishonor a check more than six (6) months old without prior notice to you. You agree that we are acting in good faith in paying such an item as long as there is not a stop payment request in effect when we pay the item. (f) Power of Attorney. A person executing a power of attorney is called the "principal" and the person acting for the principal is called the "agent." If you or your agent furnishes us with a copy of a power of attorney that includes authority over your Accounts or other assets held at the Bank, you will be deemed to be exercising that power in Illinois, and be subject to the provisions of Illinois law governing such agencies. We may refuse to comply with a power of attorney for reasonable cause, and we may require an affidavit from the agent stating that the power of attorney presented to us is a true copy and that, to the best of the agent's knowledge, the principal is alive and that the relevant powers of the agent have not been altered or terminated. We may presume, in the absence of actual knowledge to the contrary, that the agency was validly executed, that the principal was competent at the time of execution, and that, at the time of reliance, the principal is alive, the agency and the relevant powers of the agent have not terminated or been amended, and that the acts of the agent conform to the standard required by law. (g) Signatures. You authorize us to store and use account application and signature card information in any reasonable form we deem necessary, including any digitized signature capture process. If you use a facsimile signature or other form of signature, you agree that you shall have the sole responsibility for maintaining security of the facsimile signature or device by which it is affixed, and you shall bear the entire risk for unauthorized use thereof whether or not you are negligent. You agree that no facsimile signature we have been authorized to honor may be considered a forgery or an unauthorized signature, but that such facsimile signature shall be effective as your signature or endorsement, whether or not you have been negligent. You further agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from and against any and all loss, costs, damage, liability, or exposure (including reasonable attorney's fees) we or you may suffer or incur as a result of the unlawful use, unauthorized use, or misuse by any person of any such facsimile signature or the device by which it is affixed. If you use any form of facsimile signature device, you agree to deliver a sample signature to us if we request it. (h) Preauthorized drafts. If you voluntarily give information about your Account (such as our routing and transit number and your account number) to a person who is seeking to sell you goods or services over the telephone, collect a debt or otherwise electronically access your Account, we may consider any debit to your account initiated by the person to whom you gave the information as authorized by you, whether or not you in fact authorized the debit or physically delivered a check to the person. (i) Check Legends. We may disregard information on any check or item other than the signature of the drawer, the identification of the drawee financial institution and payee, the amount, the endorsements, and any other information that appears in the MICR line. In addition, we are not responsible to take action on, or for failure to notify you of restrictive language placed on checks or other items, including but not limited to terms such as "Void after 90 Days," "Paid in Full," "Two Signatures Required," "Void Over $100" or similar statements. We will agree to adhere to extraneous legends if you notify us in advance of such legends and we have specifically agreed in writing other than this Agreement to honor such legends. 7 (j) Check Examination Standards. In accordance with reasonable banking standards, most checks and other items are processed through automated processing and, except in limited circumstances and in our discretion, most items are not individually examined. You agree that we act within reasonable banking standards by processing most checks and other items through automated processing systems. (k) Stop Payment Orders. Subject to certain limitations, you may order us to stop payment on any check or other item payable from your Account, whether drawn by you or any other authorized signer. The stop payment request will be effective if we receive the order at such time and in such manner as to afford us a reasonable opportunity to act upon it. The stop payment order is effective for six (6) months, but it lapses after fourteen (14) calendar days if the original order was oral and was not confirmed in writing within that period. A stop payment order sent via a secured electronic message will be considered as having been given in writing. A stop payment order may be renewed for additional six (6) month periods if renewed during the effective time period. We will require you to provide the date, the amount, the number of the check, and the name of the payee. If you give us incorrect information, we will not be liable for failing to stop payment on the item. Our acceptance of a stop payment order will not constitute a representation that the item has not already been paid or that we have a reasonable opportunity to act upon the order. You may not stop payment on an official, certified, cashier's, or teller's check issued by us, or request us to stop payment if we have otherwise become accountable for the item. In addition, you may not stop payment on checks governed by separate agreement, such as a check guaranty agreement. Further, you may not stop payment on an item after acceptance of the item by us. ASSIGNABILITY. Any Account established under this Agreement is not assignable or transferable except with our prior written consent. We must approve any pledge of the Account, and any such pledge remains subject to any rights we have under the Agreement and applicable law, including our right of setoff. If ownership of an Account is proposed to be transferred, we may require the Account be closed and a new account opened in the name of the transferee or pledgee. FINANCIAL INSTITUTION LIABILITY. You agree that if we do not properly complete a transaction according to this Agreement, we will not be liable in any event for losses or damages in excess of the amount of the transaction, and we will not be liable if circumstances beyond our control prevent the transaction, or if the funds in your Account are or may be subject to legal process or other claim. In no event will we be liable for consequential damages. In receiving items for withdrawal or deposit, we act only as your agent. You are responsible for the condition of a check or item when you issue it. If a check or item is returned or payment is delayed as a result of any writing or marking that you or a prior endorser placed on the front or back of the check or item, you will be responsible for any cost and liabilities associated with such return or delay. We reserve the right to refuse any item for deposit or to reverse credit for any deposited items or to charge your Account for items should they become lost in the collection process. RIGHT OF SETOFF. Subject to applicable law, we may exercise our right of setoff against any and all of your Accounts without notice, for any liability or debt of any of you, whether joint or individual, whether direct or contingent, whether now or hereafter existing, and whether arising from overdrafts, endorsements, guarantees, loans, attachments, garnishments, levies, attorneys' fees, or other obligations. If the Account is a joint Account, each joint Account owner authorizes us to exercise our right of setoff against any and all Accounts of each Account owner. DORMANT ACCOUNTS. If you have not made a withdrawal from, or a deposit to your Account for an extended period of time and we have been unable to contact you, your Account may be classified by us as dormant. Checking, savings, money market, secure access money market, charter money market and senior value checking accounts are considered dormant after one (1) year from the date of the last transaction. Subject to applicable law, a dormant account fee will be charged on the Account, and the Account will be presumed to be abandoned. Time deposits are considered dormant one (1) year after the first renewal date or last date of contact, whichever is later. IRA s use the same rule however, the customer must be for an account to be considered dormant. There will be no dormant account fee charged for IRA or Time deposit dormant accounts. In accordance with law, funds in abandoned accounts will be remitted to the custody of the applicable state agency, and we will have no further liability to you for such funds. We reserve the right not to send statements on accounts we consider dormant, subject to applicable law. ACCOUNT STATEMENTS. Each month, we will provide you with an account statement showing all activity on your checking or money market Accounts. For savings Accounts, we also send statements monthly. However, if there is no activity in your Account for at least three (3) months, we reserve the right to send your statements quarterly instead of monthly. For certificate of deposit accounts, we will provide you with an account statement at least quarterly. For IRA Accounts, we will provide you with an account statement at least semi-annually. You should review your Account statement promptly to protect your rights, including your right to dispute transactions that you believe are unauthorized. You are responsible for promptly examining your Account statement and reporting any irregularities to us. The Account statement will be considered correct for all purposes and we will not be liable for any payment made and charged to your Account unless you notify us in writing within a reasonable period of time not exceeding sixty (60) calendar days after the periodic statement is sent or made available to you. However, if your Account is charged for multiple unauthorized signatures or alterations by the same wrongdoer, we will not be liable if you do not notify us in writing a reasonable period of time not exceeding thirty (30) calendar days after information about the first such irregularity was made available to you. If you do not notify us within the applicable time period, then you cannot recover any amount from us with respect to any forged, altered or otherwise unauthorized item.

Interest earned during one term that is not withdrawn at maturity or within the 14- day grace period immediately after that term is added to principal for the renewal term. The interest rate and annual percentage yield for each renewal term of a Time Deposit Account will be determined by us on or just before the maturity date. You may call us on the maturity date and we can tell you what the interest rate will be for the next renewal term. IRA TIME DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS Traditional and Roth Opening Balance Requirement. You must deposit at least $1, to open an account. Rate Information. Rates will vary based on the term requested. IRA Time Deposit Accounts are offered in the following terms: 1, 2, 3, and 5 years. The interest rate, annual percentage yield and initial maturity date for your Time Deposit Account are shown on the Deposit Confirmation you receive when you open the account. The interest rate and annual percentage yield on a Time Deposit Account are determined on the day we process and approve your application, unless you fund the account later than 14 calendar days after you open the account, in which case the interest rate and annual percentage yield will be determined on the date the account is funded.. The Annual Percentage Yield that we disclose to you assumes that interest remains on deposit until maturity. A withdrawal of interest will reduce earnings. You must maintain the entire balance in the account until maturity to obtain the disclosed Annual Percentage Yield. We use the daily balance method to calculate the interest on a Time Deposit Account. This method applies a daily periodic rate to the principal in the account each day. Interest begins to accrue on the business day you deposit non-cash items (for example, checks). Interest is compounded daily and credited to your account monthly when the amount is equal or greater than $.01. Early Withdrawal Penalty. Withdrawals from an IRA Time Deposit Account without penalty will only be allowed at maturity. For accounts with a term of 1 year, we will impose a penalty of 90 days interest on the amount of principal withdrawn before the maturity date. For accounts with a term of 2, 3, and 5 years, we will impose a penalty of 180 days of interest on the amount of principal withdrawn before the maturity date. Under certain circumstances penalties from an IRA Time Deposit Account will be waived: 1. Customer is deceased. 2. The IRA owner is deceased and was taking mandatory distributions, the person who inherits the IRA continues taking the mandatory distribution no matter what their age. 3. Customer becomes disabled (as per IRS definition). Distributions for Traditional IRAs past age would have the penalties waived except for: Direct Trustee Transfer or Internal Transfer to upgrade interest rate. Roth s would not have any penalties waived unless 1, 2, or 3 above apply. Maturity Options. Our IRA Time Deposit Accounts renew automatically unless you redeem your account on the maturity date or within 14 calendar days after that date. If you withdraw your funds during the 14-day grace period, you do not earn interest after maturity. During that 14-day grace period, you may make additional deposits or withdraw the funds without penalty. Each renewal term will be the same as this original one. Interest earned during one term that is not withdrawn at maturity or within the 14-day grace period immediately after that term is added to principal for the renewal term. The interest rate and annual percentage yield for each renewal term of a Time Deposit Account will be determined by us on or just before the maturity date. You may call us on the maturity date and we can tell you what the interest rate will be for the next renewal term. Fees. Fees applicable to our Time Deposit Accounts are shown in the Fee Schedule on SCHEDULE OF FEES. The fees listed in the Schedule of Fees apply to all Checking, Savings, Money Market and Certificate of Deposit Accounts at Allstate Bank.

If you use your MasterCard Debit Card in a point-of-sale transaction, for example, to purchase merchandise in a store or to shop online, your liability for unauthorized transactions is $0. There are some limitations on this policy. Your account must be in good standing. Also, you must notify us within a reasonable time of the loss or theft of your Card or its unauthorized use. A "reasonable time" is determined in our discretion based on all the facts and the circumstances. The "Zero Liability" policy does not apply to your use of a Card at an ATM, or to electronic fund transfers on an account that do not involve use of a Card. A transaction is considered "unauthorized" if it is initiated by someone other than you without your actual or apparent authority, and you receive no benefit from the transaction. For example, if you furnish the Card, Card number or other identifying information to another person and expressly or implicitly give that individual authority to perform one or more transactions, and the person exceeds that authority, those transactions are not 20
28 considered "unauthorized." In order to have the benefit of this policy, you must provide a written statement or affidavit in support of the claim within a reasonable time. If we have a strong basis for believing the facts and circumstances are not as you have claimed, you have made more that two claims of unauthorized use in the past 12 months, or you have been grossly negligent, we may deny your claim under this "Zero Liability" policy, and your rights are determined by the next section. Our liability under this "Zero Liability" policy is limited to reimbursing you for the face amount of any unauthorized transaction, and we will not be liable for any claims of special, indirect or consequential damages. Consumer Liability for other Unauthorized Transactions. If the above section does not fit your claim, or we deny the application of the "Zero Liability" policy to your claim, your liability for unauthorized transactions is determined under this section. Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your Card or other Access Device has been lost or stolen or if you think that your PIN or Password is no longer secure or confidential. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. You could lose all the money in your account (including any overdraft line of credit). If you tell us within two business days, you can lose no more than $50 if someone used your Card or other Access Device without your permission. If you do NOT tell us within two business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your Card or Access Device, and we can prove that we could have stopped someone from using your Card or Access Device without your permission if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500. Also, if your statement shows transactions that you did not make, 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 prevented the transaction 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 that you re Card or Access Device has been lost or stolen or that someone has transferred or may transfer money from your Account without your permission, call BANK (2265), or send an to us through our secure service.

You must provide us with the name of the originator and either the originator ID or dollar amount of the preauthorized electronic fund transfer. If you call, we may also require you to put your request in writing and get it to us within fourteen (14) days after you call. We will charge you a fee for each stop payment order you give, as reflected in our Fee Schedule. Notice of Varying Amounts. If these regular payments vary in amount, the person you are going to pay will tell you, ten (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 Transfers. If you order us to stop one of these payments three (3) business days or more before the transfer is scheduled, and we do not do so, we will be liable for your proximately caused losses or damages (but not for consequential damages). FOREIGN TRANSACTIONS. If you use your Card to obtain cash or to purchase goods or services in another country, the amount of the charge in foreign currency will be converted to a U.S. dollar equivalent by the applicable network (e.g. MasterCard ). In making this conversion, the network will use the procedures set forth in its operating regulations. Conversion to U.S. dollars may occur on a date other than the date of the transaction; therefore, the currency conversion rate may be different from the conversion rate in effect on the transaction date. You understand that we do not determine the currency conversion rate used, and we do not receive any portion of the currency conversion rate. PREAUTHORIZATION HOLDS. When you use your Card at a point of sale location or when you use the MasterCard network enhancement feature of the Card to obtain goods or services or to obtain cash, the merchant may attempt to obtain preauthorization from us for the transaction. We 21 place up to a five (5)-business day hold on your Account for the amount of the preauthorization request (which may vary in some cases from the amount of the actual purchase, depending on the merchant's request). If the preauthorization request varies from the amount of the actual transaction, payment of the transaction may not remove the hold, which could remain on the account until five (5) business days have expired. This hold may affect the availability of funds from your Checking Account to pay checks or for other electronic funds transfers. We will not be responsible for damages for wrongful dishonor if any item is not paid because of the hold. 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 proximately caused losses or damages (but not for consequential 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. The money in your account is subject to legal process or other claim restricting the transfer. The transfer would go over the credit limit on any overdraft line you have with us. The terminal or system was not working properly and you knew about the breakdown when you started the transfer. 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 BANK (2265), or send an to us through our secure service, or write the Bank at P.O. Box, 3000 Northbrook, Illinois, , 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 sixty (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 ten (10) business days. We will determine whether an error occurred within ten (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 forty-five (45) days to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will provisionally credit your account within ten (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 ten (10) business days, we may not provisionally credit your account. We will tell you the results within three (3) 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. If a notice of error involves an electronic fund transfer that occurred within thirty (30) days after the first deposit to the account was made, the applicable time period for providing provisional credit shall be twenty (20) business days in place of ten (10) business days. If a notice of error involves an electronic fund transfer that was initiated in a foreign country, or is a point of sale debit card transaction, or that occurred within thirty (30) days after the first deposit to the account was made, the applicable time period for completing our investigation shall be ninety (90) calendar days in place of forty-five (45) calendar days. If a notice of error involves unauthorized use of your point of sale MasterCard Debit card when it is used as a debit card, we will provide provisional credit within five (5) business days after you notify us instead of within ten (10) or twenty (20) business days. We may withhold providing this accelerated provisional credit, to the extent allowed under applicable law, if the circumstances or account history warrant the delay. BUSINESS DAYS. For purposes of this EFT Agreement, our business days are Monday through Friday. Holidays are not included. CONFIDENTIALITY. We will disclose information to third parties about your account or the transfers you make: Where it is necessary to complete the transfer; To verify the existence and condition of your account upon the request of a third party, such as a credit bureau or merchant; or To comply with government agency or court orders; If you give us your written permission. As otherwise provided in the Allstate Bank Privacy Statement. PERSONAL IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (PIN) AND PASSWORD. The PIN and Password are issued to you for security purposes. The numbers are confidential and should not be disclosed to third parties or recorded on your Card or computer terminal. You are responsible for safekeeping your Card and PIN. You agree not to disclose or otherwise make your PIN or Password available to anyone not authorized to sign on your Account. NOTICES. All notices from us will be effective when we have mailed them or delivered them to your last known address on our records. Notices from you will be effective when received by us at the telephone number or the address specified in this EFT Agreement. 22
29 ENFORCEMENT. In the event we bring a legal action to enforce this Agreement or collect amounts owing as a result of any Account transaction, we shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, including fees on any appeal, subject to any limits under applicable law. TERMINATION OF EFT SERVICES. We may terminate this Agreement and your use of the EFT Services, without advance notice to you, if: You or any authorized user of your Card or Access Device breach this or any other agreement with us; We have reason to believe that there has been an unauthorized use of your Card, PIN, Password or Access Device; or You abuse your account privileges, or you make a deposit at an ATM and we subsequently determine that there was no actual deposit or the deposit is substantially different from what you claimed when you entered the transaction. We may also terminate this Agreement in whole or in part if we decide not to offer the Service in that form any longer. If we terminate your use of the EFT Services, we will use reasonable efforts to notify you that we have cancelled or will cancel this Agreement. You may terminate this Agreement by notifying us in writing. Termination of service will be effective the first business day following receipt of your written notice. Termination of this Agreement will not affect the rights and responsibilities of the parties under this Agreement for transactions initiated before termination. If you or we cancel this EFT Agreement, you must surrender or destroy your Card or any other Access Device issued to you. OTHER PROVISIONS. Use of the EFT Services is subject to the Deposit Agreement governing your Account, and any future changes to the Deposit Agreement. There may be a delay between the time a deposit is made and when it will be available for withdrawal. You should review our Funds Availability Policy Disclosure to determine the availability of the funds deposited. We reserve the right to refuse any transaction, which would draw upon insufficient funds or exceed a credit limit. AMENDMENT. We reserve the right to change the terms and conditions upon which the EFT Services are offered. We will mail notice to you at least twenty-one (21) days before the effective date of any change, as required by law. If we notify you of a change to this EFT Agreement and you do not agree to the change or amendment, you must notify us prior to the effective date of the change or amendment and cancel your EFT Services and surrender or destroy your Access Devices. ATM SAFETY TIPS As issuers of Automated Teller Machine (ATM) access devices, we have provided for your information a list of safety precautions regarding the use of automated teller machines. Please read the following safety tips: Be aware of your surroundings when using an automated teller machine, particularly during the hours of darkness. Consider having someone accompany you when using the automated teller machine after dark. It is appropriate to politely ask someone who is uncomfortably close to you to step back before you complete your transaction. Refrain from displaying your cash. Pocket it as soon as your transaction is completed. Count the cash later in the safety of your car or home. Consider using another automated teller machine or coming back later if you notice anything suspicious. If you are in the middle of a transaction and you notice something suspicious, cancel the transaction, pocket your ATM card and leave. Go to the nearest public area where people are located if you are followed after making a transaction. Report all crimes to law enforcement officials and to the operator of the automated teller machine immediately.
