Remote Deposit Capture Service Terms and Conditions

1. The Remote Deposit Capture Service (“Remote Deposit “) is a Related Service and provides you the ability to access and make deposits to your designated eligible accounts using Mobile Banking. Remote Deposit is designed to take advantage of The Check Clearing for the 21st Century Act and its regulations (collectively “Check 21”). Remote Deposit enables you to use a compatible handheld device to scan an image of original paper checks (“Original Checks”) that are drawn on or payable through United States financial institutions (each a “Check Image”) and to electronically submit the Check Image and associated deposit information to the Bank from your home or other remote locations using Mobile Banking for deposit into a designated eligible account for collection thereafter by the Bank. A Check Image submitted to the Bank electronically for deposit is not deemed received until the Bank accepts and confirms receipt of your Check Image deposit.
2. Your use of the Remote Deposit is subject to the following requirements:
   • To access the Remote Deposit you must have or acquire and maintain a compatible handheld device and a wireless plan from a compatible wireless carrier.
   • Enroll in both Online Banking and Mobile Banking, and download the application that is compatible with your wireless device.
   • You must meet any requirements the Bank, at its sole discretion, may set from time to time with respect to maintaining your eligible account(s) in good standing as a prerequisite for being approved for Remote Deposit. Such requirements may include, but not be limited to, length of time opened, minimum deposit thresholds, consideration NSF or Overdraft activity, or history of check losses.
   • You may scan and submit Check Images for deposit to the Bank within the dollar limits (“Deposit Limits”) established for you by the Bank. The Bank reserves the right to limit the frequency and dollar amount of deposits submitted through Remote Deposit. If you exceed the Deposit Limits established for you, the Bank may in its sole discretion accept or refuse the Check Image deposit. If at any time the Bank accepts a Check Image deposit that exceeds your Deposit Limits, the Bank will have no obligation to do so in the future. The Bank may at any time at its sole discretion raise or lower your Deposit Limits.
   • By accessing Remote Deposit, you authorize the Bank to provide you with access to all of the eligible accounts you designate to participate in Remote Deposit. The following account types are currently eligible for Remote Deposit: checking (excluding Rebound Checking), savings, and money market accounts.
   • Endorse the check and add “For Bank Deposit Only” below your signature. All deposits are subject to inspection and can be adjusted upon review.
3. Scanning and submitting Check Image deposits does not constitute receipt of the deposit by the Bank. Generally, Check Image deposits received and accepted prior to 4:45 p.m., Eastern Standard Time are processed on the Business Day of receipt. Any Check Image deposit received and accepted after this time or on Saturdays, Sundays, and federal holidays or when the Bank is otherwise closed will be processed on the Bank’s next Business Day. Acknowledgment that your Check Image deposit has been received by the Bank does not mean that the Check Image deposit was received error free.
4. You may verify receipt and the amount of your Check Image deposit credited to your account by reviewing your statement or transactions online or by calling the Bank Customer Service Center at (812) 876-2229.
5. You agree that you will use Remote Deposit to scan only Original Checks payable to you and properly endorsed by you, drawn on financial institutions in the United States with a valid ABA/Routing Number and denominated in U.S. Dollars, and intended for deposit by you to your designated account with the Bank. Items not meeting the above requirements may be eligible for deposit by alternate methods such as in-person or by mail using an account deposit slip.
6. You understand that the Bank is not obligated to accept for deposit any Check Image that the Bank in its sole discretion determines to be ineligible for Remote Deposit. Ineligible items include: Check Images of items drawn on banks located outside the United States, Check Images that are illegible, images of checks previously converted to Substitute Checks (as defined by Check 21), and Check Images with unreadable magnetic ink character recognition (“MICR”) information. The quality of any Check Image must comply with the requirements established from time to time by the American National Standards Institute (“ANSI”), the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve Board, or any other controlling regulatory agency, clearing house or association. You acknowledge and agree that even if the Bank does not identify a Check Image as ineligible, the Check Image may be returned to the Bank because, among other reasons, the Check Image or any Substitute Check created from the Check Image is deemed ineligible by the financial institution upon which it is drawn or any intermediate collecting financial institution. The Bank’s failure to identify a Check Image you transmit to the Bank as ineligible shall not preclude or limit your obligations.
7. You shall fully destroy each Original Check in your Check Image deposit thirty (30) days following receipt and crediting of your Check Image deposit or as the Bank may otherwise instruct. Prior to destruction you shall maintain each Original Check in a secure location. You understand each Original Check must be fully destroyed following any retention period and that a paper shredder is one such method to assure destruction. You are responsible if an Original Check is misused following submission by Check Image deposit and prior to its full destruction.
8. You make the following representations and warranties:
   • You shall not alter any Original Check or Check Image and shall review the Check Image to ensure that it accurately represents all of the information on the front and the back of the Original Check at the time you scanned the Check Image.
   • You shall submit to the Bank only Check Images that are suitable for processing, including, but not limited to, Check Images that are legible and contain machine-readable OCR or MICR data.
   • You shall destroy the Original Checks as stated above.
   • You shall not submit to the Bank or to any other person or entity for deposit or credit any Original Check if a Check Image of the Original Check has already been submitted using Remote Deposit and accepted for deposit into your account with the Bank, or any Original Check that was previously submitted by you to and was accepted by any other person or entity for deposit.
   • You shall not deposit into your Account with the Bank or any other deposit taking institution, or otherwise negotiate or transfer to anyone, any Original Check that you submitted as a Check Image deposit to the Bank, unless following receipt of your submission, the Bank notifies you that the Check Image is ineligible and not accepted for deposit or that the Check Image or any Substitute Check created from the Image is refused by the financial institution upon which it is drawn.
   • You shall indemnify, defend, and hold the Bank and its agents harmless from and against all liability, damage and loss arising from any claims, suits, or demands, brought by third parties with respect to any Check Image, Substitute Check, or Original Check processed through Remote Deposit as described above.
   • You shall use Remote Deposit only for your own personal/consumer use in accordance with these terms and conditions, and you shall not make Remote Deposit available or transfer your rights to use Remote Deposit for the benefit of any third party.
   • You agree to notify the bank of any suspected errors regarding items deposited through the service immediately, and in no event later than 30 days after we sent you the account statement on which the error appeared.
9. The Bank will acknowledge receipt of your Check Image deposit submitted through Remote Deposit and notify you if a Check Image is not eligible for deposit. The Bank’s ability to provide Remote Deposit is conditioned upon the availability of the wireless or computer services and systems used in transmitting your requests and the Bank’s response. The Bank shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage incurred due to the failure or interruption of Remote Deposit, wireless or computer services, or systems, resulting from the act or omission of any third party or other causes not reasonably within the Bank’s control.
