I. Terms and Conditions for Both Consumer and Non-Consumers

A. Introduction

This Internet Banking Service Agreement ("Agreement") governs the use of the Golden Valley Bank’s Online Banking System ("Services"). The Services allows you to perform a number of banking functions through the use of a personal computer and the Internet. This Agreement establishes the terms and conditions for electronic access to the internet banking system ("System"). When you use any of the Internet Banking Services described in this Agreement, you agree to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

For purposes of this Agreement, the words "we," "our," "us," "Bank" and other similar terms mean Golden Valley Bank. “You," "your," "User," "Customer," "Company" and other similar terms refer to the account holder named below and anyone else authorized by that account holder to exercise control over account holder's funds through the System. "Account" or "accounts" means your accounts at Golden Valley Bank. "Electronic funds transfers" means ATM withdrawals, preauthorized transactions, point of sale transactions and transfers to and from your Bank accounts (including Bill Payment) using the System.

For purposes of this Agreement, all cut-off times noted within the agreement are Pacific Time (“PT” or “PST”). A “Business Day” is defined as all weekdays (M-F) with the exception of Federal holidays.

If you are an individual, then you agree to use our Services for consumer transactions only. If you are not an individual, including, but not limited to, a sole proprietor, corporation, partnership, Limited Liability Company, unincorporated business entity or association, then you agree to use our Services for non-consumer transactions only. A “consumer transaction” means the use of our Services to electronically transfer funds to or from a consumer account. A “consumer account” is an account of yours that is established primarily for personal, family or household purposes. If you use the Services for a consumer transaction, then the terms and conditions in Section III of this Agreement will not apply.

A “non-consumer transaction” means the use of the Services for any purpose that is not a consumer transaction (for example, to transfer funds to or from a business account or any account that is not a consumer account) and in addition includes (to the extent allowed by law): (i) any transfer of funds through Fed wire or a similar wire transfer system; (ii) any transfer of funds the primary purpose of which is the purchase or sale of a security or commodity; and any other use of the Services if the use is not covered by the Electronic Fund Transfer Act and its implementing Regulation E. If you use the Services for a non-consumer transaction, then the terms and conditions in Section II of this Agreement will not apply.

B. Other Agreements

The terms and conditions of the deposit agreements and disclosures for each of your Bank accounts as well as your other agreements with the Bank such as loans continue to apply notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement.

C. Using Online Banking

To use System, you must have at least one checking account at Bank, acquire the computer hardware and software required to access System, World Wide Web access via a secure Internet Service Provider (ISP), an Internet browser that meets current encryption standards , anti-virus software, and a valid e-mail address. Your online acceptance of these terms and conditions represents acceptance of all the requirements outlined herein.

D. Enrollment and Usage

Enrollment access is based upon the type of custodial account arrangement you have with the Bank:

Complete online enrollment and accept this Agreement for your individual account(s). Persons with individual accounts may also access joint accounts for which they are an owner.
For joint accounts, both account holders may enroll separately and each will have his or her own separate "Agreement" and user credentials to include User ID and Password. Each such joint account holder is subject to separate fees as applicable. You are liable for all transactions that you, or any other user that you provide your User ID and Password, in addition to other User IDs and Passwords issued to joint account holders, even if the person(s) you authorize exceeds your authority.

System can be used to access only the Bank accounts that you have designated for use in this Agreement. You may request to add or delete any of your Bank accounts from this Agreement by contacting us.

E. Your Responsibility When the User ID and Password are Used

In your electronic communications with us, you must use your User ID and Password to initiate a secure System session with us. You may then use the tools provided by us within System.

When we commence your ability to access the System, we will establish access for you using a temporary Password. You will be required to change your Password upon your first login and periodically thereafter. You agree that you will not under any circumstances disclose your Password to anyone, including anyone claiming to represent Bank.

Your Password must be at least 8 to 17 characters in length and consist of both alpha and numeric characters and both upper and lower case characters for purposes of security. Your Password should not be associated with any commonly known personal identification, such as social security numbers, address, date of birth, names of children, information easily obtained via social media and should be memorized rather than written down.

We are entitled to act upon instructions we receive with respect to any Service under your User ID and Password. You are liable for all transactions made or authorized with the use of your Password. We have no responsibility for establishing the identity of any person who uses your Password. You agree that if you give your Password to anyone or fail to safeguard its secrecy, you do so at your own risk since anyone with your Password will have access to your accounts.

You agree to indemnify and release Bank from any and all liability, and agree not to make any claim against Bank or bring any action against Bank, relating to its honoring or allowing any actions or transactions that were conducted under your Password or acting upon messages or authorizations provided to us using your Password.

You agree that we shall not be responsible for any loss, property damage or bodily injury arising out of or resulting from the failure of any person to provide you with access to System, whether caused by the equipment, software, the Bank, Internet service providers, Internet browsers, or the parties providing communication services to or from us to you. We are not liable for war, acts of government that may restrict or impair use of System services, hurricanes, floods or other disasters, nor shall we be responsible for any direct, indirect, special or consequential, economic or other damages relating in any way to the foregoing.

By directing us, through the use of System, any Services initiated with your User ID and Password, you authorize Bank to complete the transaction. Any requests or instructions we receive from you through the System using your User ID and Password shall constitute writings with your signature as provided under all applicable law, and shall have the same force and effect as a writing signed by you. This includes, but is not limited to, requests with respect to funds in your account; transferring money, stop payment orders, changes to accounts or services or any other communication you provide us through the System using your User ID and Password.

Your access to System will be blocked in the event your User ID and Password is entered incorrectly on 3 consecutive attempts. If this happens, please call us at (530) 894-1000.

F. Data Protection

You understand the importance of your role in preventing misuse of your accounts through System and you agree to promptly examine your statement for each of your Bank accounts as soon as you receive it. You agree to protect the confidentiality of your account and account number, and your personal identification information, such as your driver's license number and social security number. You understand that personal identification information by itself, or together with information related to your account, may allow unauthorized access to your account. Your User ID and Password are intended to provide security against unauthorized entry and access to your accounts. Data transferred via System is encrypted in an effort to provide transmission security and System utilizes identification technology to verify that the sender and receiver of System transmissions can be appropriately identified by each other. Notwithstanding our efforts to insure that the System is secure, you acknowledge that the Internet is inherently insecure and that all data transfers, including electronic mail, occur openly on the Internet and potentially can be monitored and read by others. We cannot and do not warrant that all data transfers utilizing Bank System, or e-mail transmitted to and from us, will not be monitored or read by others.

G. Services

You can use System to perform these Services:

View balances and transactions on all of your accounts

Some of the Services may appear on your screen that have not been approved for you and, therefore, will not be available to you. Also, the Bank may, from time to time, introduce new Services.

G-1: eAlerts

You may sign up for eAlerts through Golden Valley Bank’s Internet Banking service. Once you have logged in to Internet Banking, you may choose which eAlerts you would like to receive, the account(s) to which the eAlerts will relate, and the electronic addresses to which the eAlerts will be sent. You agree to notify us of any change to your electronic addresses in order to ensure continued delivery of your eAlerts. You must be an Internet Banking customer to receive eAlerts. You may also delete or change the status of your eAlerts through Internet Banking. eAlerts may be discontinued by deleting the eAlert. Deleted Alerts will not be maintained on your list of eAlerts.

You may elect to receive eAlerts relating to specific transactions on your designated accounts including but not limited to; notifications regarding deposit account transactions based on a specified amount, notifications that payments or credits have posted to your account, or notifications when your account balance exceeds an amount that you have specified.

eAlerts are not encrypted, therefore, we will never include your pass code or full account number. However, eAlerts may include your name and some information about your accounts such as your account balance. Anyone with access to your email will be able to view the contents of the eAlerts.

eAlerts will be sent each day, at various times, when transactions occur that meet your specified criteria. You understand and agree that eAlerts will not be sent on a “real time” basis, but will rather be sent at the next scheduled delivery time after the specified transaction event occurs. We reserve the right to change the frequency or timing of eAlerts, at any time and from time to time.

eAlerts are not intended to replace your account statements or any other communications we may provide to you regarding your account(s).

You understand and agree that receipt of each eAlert may be delayed, or prevented by factors affecting your Internet service provider(s), phone operator(s), and such other relevant entities ("Third Party Service Providers"). All matters concerning Third Party Service Providers are solely between you and the Third Party Service Provider. We make no representations or warranties whatsoever with regard to Third Party Service Providers' products and services. Golden Valley Bank and its affiliates neither guarantee the delivery nor the accuracy of the contents of any eAlert. Golden Valley Bank and its affiliates will not be liable for losses or damages arising from (a) non-delivery, delayed delivery, or mis-delivery of an eAlert; (b) inaccurate content in an eAlert; or (c) your use or reliance on the contents of any eAlert for any purchases or any other reason.

You are responsible for and must provide all telephone and other equipment, software, and services necessary to receive eAlerts from the Service. While Golden Valley Bank does not charge for the delivery of the eAlerts, please be advised that text or data charges or rates may be imposed by your carrier. Golden Valley Bank reserves the right to modify this Agreement at any time. We may add new eAlerts from time to time or cancel old eAlerts. Any modifications shall be effective when they are posted on the Service. You will be notified as soon as possible when any changes are made that materially affect your rights.

If a party elects arbitration, that party will initiate such arbitration through Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services ("JAMS"), the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), or an established alternative dispute resolution (ADR) administrator mutually agreed upon by the parties.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, all other terms of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. Unless our account agreement with you states otherwise, you agree that any claim or dispute you may have against us (other than those which are arbitrated under Section 35 (Arbitration) above) must be resolved by a court located in the county in which you reside.

In addition, if applicable to you, you waive California Civil Code §1542, which states that a general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if not known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.

39. No Waiver. We shall not be deemed to have waived any rights or remedies hereunder unless such waiver is in writing and signed by one of our authorized representatives. No delay or omission on our part in exercising any rights or remedies shall operate as a waiver of such rights or remedies or any other rights or remedies.

Sections 4, 12, 13, 21, 22, 27 and 32- 42 of the Agreement, as well as any other terms which by their nature should survive, will survive the termination of this Agreement.

I. Stop Payment

You may initiate stop-payment requests online via the System only for paper checks you have written (non-electronic) on your Bank accounts. The System allows you to place a stop payment order request of up to six (6) months in duration. If you use the Services stop payment feature, then you must follow the procedures and specification described in this Agreement.

You must provide the Bank with complete and accurate information in a timely manner on: the account number, the date of the item or check; the item or check number; the EXACT amount of the item or check (dollars and cents); the payee name and the reason for the stop payment. If any information is incomplete or incorrect, the Bank will not be responsible for failing to stop payment on the item or check. Bank shall have no responsibility to determine the accuracy of such information. Stop payment requests which cover a range of checks or items that are missing or stolen will be processed without regard to the dollar amount. Bank is not responsible for stop payment requests received for items or checks that have already cleared or been paid from your account. Bank may provide you notice of the actual stop payment of a check by making such information accessible to you online via the System. Stop payment orders are effective for only six months unless renewed by you prior to expiration of the original order. From time to time, Services may be inoperable. If that occurs, your request can be communicated to the Bank by telephone instructions.

You agree to indemnify Bank against any loss for the amount of said check and all expenses, costs and consequential damages, if any, incurred by Bank because of refusing payment pursuant to your stop payment order. You agree not to hold Bank liable on account of payment contrary to your stop payment order if same occurs through inadvertence, accident or oversight, or if by reason of such payment other items drawn by you are returned insufficient. You agree that any stop payment placed on any check issued on your accounts designated on the Internet Banking Enrollment Form may be relied upon by Bank to have been placed by an agent of you duly authorized to place the stop payment, and Bank shall have no duty or obligation to verify either the authenticity of the stop payment order request or the authority of the person placing it.

We currently impose a stop payment fee for each stop payment request on a check or item. Please refer to your service fee schedule for applicable fees. This fee will be deducted from the account which the check or item was initiated or drawn on. Stop payment order on a Bill Payment will depend on the payment method and whether or not a check has cleared. To stop payment on a Bill Payment see "Bill Payment" below.

J. Bill Payment

You agree to be bound by the CheckFree Terms of Service , our third party bill payment service provider as defined in the terms and conditions outlined when you sign up for Bill Pay service.

K. Overdrafts (Order of Payments, Transfers, and other Withdrawals)

If your account has insufficient funds to perform all electronic fund transfers you have requested for a given business day, then:

Electronic funds transfers involving currency disbursements, such as ATM withdrawals, will have priority;
Electronic fund transfers initiated through System which would result in an overdraft of your account may, at our discretion, be cancelled;
In the event the electronic fund transfers initiated through System which would result in an overdraft of your account are not cancelled, overdraft charges may be assessed pursuant to the terms of the deposit agreement for that account.

L. Business Days

For purposes of this Agreement, our business days are Monday through Friday, excluding Federal holidays.

M. Contact in Event of Unauthorized Transfers

N. Limitations on Transfers

In addition to the limitations elsewhere described, there are frequency limits that apply when transferring funds from a savings or a money market account. Federal regulations limit the number of preauthorized electronic fund transfers and telephone transfers - including transfers you request using the Service - from money market deposit and savings accounts. You may make a maximum of 6 preauthorized, automatic or telephone transfers per monthly cycle on a savings or money market account. No more than 3 of the 6 may be made by check, draft or debit to third parties, including point of sale ("POS") transactions. If you exceed these limits, we may close the account, impose a fee and/or change the account to a non-interest bearing demand deposit account. Each transfer or payment you request through the Services from your money market deposit or savings account is counted as one of the six or three limited transfers you're permitted each monthly cycle. However, payments to your loans at the Bank are not counted toward this limit. Transfers and withdrawals made in person, by messenger, by mail or at an ATM are unlimited. If a hold has been placed on deposits made to an account from which you wish to transfer funds, you cannot transfer the portion of the funds being held until the hold expires.

O. Confidentiality

We will disclose information to third parties about your account or the transfers you that make:

Where it is necessary for completing transfers, or
In order to verify the existence and condition of your account for a third party, such as a credit bureau or merchant, or
In order to comply with government agency or court orders, or
If you give us written permission.
P. Additional Disclosures
In addition to the above paragraph regarding confidentiality, you understand information about your accounts or the transfers you make may automatically be disclosed to others. For example, tax laws require disclosure to the government of the amount of interest you earn, and some transactions, such as large currency and foreign transactions, must be reported to the government. We may also provide information about your accounts to persons or companies we believe would use the information for reasonable purposes, such as when a prospective creditor seeks to verify information you may have given in a credit application or a merchant calls to verify a check you have written. In addition, we routinely inform credit bureaus when accounts are closed because they were not handled properly. We may also seek information about you from others, such as the credit bureau, in connection with the opening or maintaining of your account or in connection with approving your access to System. You agree and hereby authorize all of these transfers of information.

Examples of when we may cancel this Agreement and the use of the Online Banking service without prior notice include, but are not limited to:

If you breach this or any other agreement we may have with you.

If you request us to do so.
If you do not access the System for a period of 90 days or longer.
If you have insufficient funds in any one of your Bank accounts.
If you do not designate a new Primary Account immediately after you or we close your Primary Account.
You may cancel your System at any time by fax, e-mail, calling us at (530) 894-1000, or by writing us at 190 Cohasset Road, Chico, CA 95926. Your access to System will be suspended within three business days of our receipt of your instructions to cancel the System. Termination will not affect your liability or obligations under this Agreement for transactions that have been processed on your behalf. You will remain responsible for all outstanding fees and charges incurred prior to the date of termination. Termination will apply only to the System and does not terminate your other relationships with us.

CC. Governing Law

This Agreement is governed by applicable federal laws and the laws of the State of California (except to the extent this Agreement can and does vary such rules or laws).

II. Terms and Conditions for Consumers Only

This Section II applies only to Consumer and Consumer Transactions.

A. Liability for Unauthorized Use

Tell us AT ONCE if you believe that your User ID and Password has been lost or stolen. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. You could lose all the money in your account (plus your maximum overdraft line of credit if you have one).

If you tell us within two business days, you can lose no more $50.00 if someone used your User ID and Password without your permission. If you do NOT tell us within two business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your User ID and Password, and we can prove that we could have stopped someone from using the User ID and Password without your permission if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.00.

Also, if your statement shows transfers 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 stopped someone from taking the money if you had told us in time.

If delay in notification is due to a bona fide reason (such as a long trip or extended hospital stay) the Bank reserves the right to extend the notification period at our sole discretion.

B. Error Resolution

Telephone us at (530) 894-1000 or write us at 190 Cohasset Road, Chico, CA 95926, 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 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 10 business days.

We will determine whether an error occurred within 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 45 days to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your account within 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 10 business days, we may not credit your account.

For errors involving new accounts, point-of-sale, or foreign-initiated transactions, we may take up to 90 days to investigate your complaint or question. For new accounts, we may take up to 20 business days to credit your account for the amount you think is in error.

We will tell you the results within three 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.

C. Preauthorized Payments

Right to stop payment and the procedure for doing so: If you have told us in advance to make regular preauthorized payments out of your account, you can stop any of these preauthorized payments. Here’s how: Call us at (530) 894-1000 or write us at 190 Cohasset Road, Chico, CA 95926, in time for us to receive your request three business days or more before the payment is scheduled to be made. If you call, we may also require you to put your request in writing and get it to us within 14 days after you call. We will charge you a fee for each stop payment order you give.

Liability for failure to stop payments of preauthorized transfers: If you order us to stop one of these payments 1 day or more before the transfer is scheduled, and we do not do so, we will be liable for your losses or damages proximately caused by us.

Periodic statements: You will get a monthly account statement (unless there are no transfers in a particular month). In any case you will get a statement at least quarterly.

D. Financial Institution's Liability

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 losses or damages proximately caused by us. 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.
If the transfer would go over the credit limit on your overdraft line (if any).
If the System wasn’t working properly, and you knew about the breakdown when you started the transfer.
If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood) prevent the transfer, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken.
If there are other exceptions stated in our agreement with you.

E. Fees and Charges

You agree to pay the fees and charges for your use of System as we have established and may amend from time to time. These fees and charges will be in addition to any charges associated with the account you maintain with the Bank. Our schedule of fees for System is set forth in the Bank’s Schedule of Fees. You agree that all such fees and charges will be deducted from the Bank checking account designated in this Agreement. If you close your account, you must contact us immediately to designate another account. You agree to pay any additional reasonable charges for services you request, which are not covered by this Agreement. You are also responsible for telephone and Internet service fees you incur in connection with your use of System.

Mobile Deposit Terms and Conditions provide the general rules that apply to Customer's use of Golden Valley Bank's MyGVB Mobile Deposit for remote deposit capture services.

Mobile Deposit Description

The remote deposit capture service ("Mobile Deposit" or "Service") is designed to allow you to make deposits to your checking, money market checking or savings accounts from your camera-enabled mobile device capable of capturing check images and information and electronically delivering the items and associated deposit information to the Bank or the Bank's designated processor. The device must capture an image of the front and back of each check to be deposited in accordance with the Procedures; must read and capture the magnetic ink character recognition ("MICR") line on each check; and must read and capture all such other data and information as is required by this Agreement or Federal Reserve regulations for the processing of these checks for payment.

Customer agrees that the remote deposit capture services using Mobile Deposit shall be governed by these terms and conditions and other relevant terms of the agreement(s) governing the deposit account into which checks are deposited ((including, but not limited to, Golden Valley Bank's Mobile Banking Agreement & Disclosure, Deposit Account Terms and Conditions, Electronic Funds Transfer Disclosure, Fee Schedule, Funds Availability, and Truth in Savings disclosures, (Account Disclosures) as applicable)), and that Bank may change the terms and conditions for Mobile Deposit at any time.

Mobile Deposit Funds Availability

Golden Valley Bank will generally apply the Bank’s Funds Availability Policy and Schedule to all items received through Mobile Deposit as if we had received the original check. However, in addition to the exceptions specified in the Funds Availability Policy, we may delay availability of funds from any deposit you make through Mobile Deposit at any time, in our sole discretion, including due to any concern we may have regarding our ability to collect based upon our review of any imaged item presented for deposit. If a check hold is determined to be warranted after your mobile deposit has been reviewed, Bank staff will place a hold on the funds and mail you a notice of delayed availability no later than the following business day after the deposit was initially credited.

Mobile Deposit Conditions and Requirements

In order to enroll in the Service, you must be designated as an authorized signer or owner of a Golden Valley Bank Account (the "Account") that is eligible for this Service, and be enrolled in MyGVB Mobile. As conditions to Bank's provision of the Service, you shall (a) maintain the Account in good standing and (b) comply with such restrictions on the Service as we may communicate to you from time to time.

Customer shall at all times maintain an account with Golden Valley Bank. As part of Mobile Deposit, the Bank reserves the right to periodically audit Customer's remote deposit capture, security, and information technology processes, and to require Customer to implement reasonable and necessary controls, subject to the Bank's sole discretion.

Hardware and Software requirements for Mobile Deposit

You must have a Mobile Device that is acceptable to us and a wireless plan from a compatible mobile wireless provider. You must also use the operating system(s) and software that satisfies all technical specifications and other requirements that we and/or our service provider(s) establish and specify. We and/or our service provider(s) may change these specifications and/or requirements from time to time. The Bank is not responsible for any third party software you may need to use the Services. You agree that you will perform, or cause to be performed by properly trained personnel, all vendor recommended maintenance, repairs, upgrades and replacements. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, you are solely responsible, at your own expense, for purchasing, installing, operating, testing and maintaining all hardware and software necessary to use the Service. You must install and test your Mobile Device, your system, and any other required hardware and software before you make your first deposit through the Service. You accept any such software "as is" and subject to the terms and conditions of the software agreement that you enter into directly with the third party software provider at the time of download and installation. We are not responsible for, and you release us from, any and all claims or damages resulting from, or related to, any computer virus or related problems that may be associated with using the Service, e-mail or the Internet. You agree that all images and files transmitted to us through the Service will contain no viruses or any other disabling features that may have an adverse impact on our network, data, or related systems.

Deposit Limits

The Bank reserves the right to establish and assign to you deposit limits for the Service (including limits on the dollar amount and/or number of Checks that you may transmit through the Service each day) and to modify such limits from time to time in the Bank's sole discretion, and you agree to comply with all such limits.

Deposit Processing

Customer shall upload the Electronic Deposit transmission to Golden Valley Bank prior to the daily 5:00 PM PST cut-off time established for the receipt of Electronic Deposits. Any Electronic Deposit transmission received by the Bank after its daily 5:00 PM PST cut-off time shall be deemed to have been received at the opening of the next banking day. Performance of the Electronic Deposit Services may be affected by external factors such as communication networks latency. Customer is responsible for the transmission of the Electronic Deposit until the Remote Deposit Capture System reports a successful acknowledgment of receipt of the transmission.

Golden Valley Bank shall not be liable to Customer for failure to process an Electronic Deposit, or any error that results in processing or collecting an Electronic Deposit: (i) for which Customer has not provided the Bank with full and correct MICR Data and dollar amount from the original paper check; (ii) for which Customer has not provided an accurate and legible image of the original paper check, (iii) for which Customer has failed to comply with formatting standards or other guidelines required by the Bank; or (iv) which would violate this Agreement or any other agreement between Customer and Golden Valley Bank.

Fees and Charges for Mobile Deposit

The Bank offers the benefits and convenience of the Services to you free. The Bank reserves the right to charge fees for the Services in the future.

Eligible Deposit Items

Only a draft, payable on demand, and drawn on or payable through or at an office of a bank, is eligible for deposit as a Check Image. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the following items are not eligible for deposit as Check Images under Mobile Deposit, and Customer must deposit these original paper checks with Golden Valley Bank for collection: (i) U.S. Treasury Checks, (ii) checks, including travelers checks, that are drawn on banks located outside of the United States, (iii) checks payable in a medium other than U.S. dollars, (iv) non-cash items (as defined under Section 229.2(u) of Federal Reserve's Regulation CC), (v) promissory notes and similar obligations, such as savings bonds, (vi) third party checks, (vii) Substitute Checks, (viii) items drawn off of the Customer's Golden Valley Bank account, and (ix) any other class of checks or drafts as identified by the Bank to Customer from time to time.

Endorsements and Procedures

You agree to restrictively endorse any item transmitted through the Services as "FOR MOBILE DEPOSIT ONLY, (bank name) account # " or as otherwise instructed by the Bank. You agree to follow any and all other procedures and instructions for use of the Services as the Bank may establish from time to time. Endorsements must be made on the back of the check. Any loss we incur from a delay or processing error resulting from an irregular endorsement or other markings by you will be your responsibility. For a check payable to you and any joint owner(s) of your Bank account, the check must be endorsed by all such payees and you may only use Mobile Deposit to deposit such check into a Bank account jointly owned by all such payees. If the check is payable to you or your joint owner, either of you can endorse it. If the check is made payable to you and any non-joint owner, you may not deposit the check into your Bank account using the Services.

Check requirements (including image quality)

The image of an item transmitted to the Bank using the Services must be legible and contain images of the front and back of the Check. The image quality of the items 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 regulatory agency, clearing house or association. These requirements include, but are not limited to, ensuring the following information can clearly be read and understood by sight review of the Check image: the amount of the Check (both written and numeric); the payee; the signature of the drawer (maker); the date; the Check number; the information identifying the drawer and the paying financial institution that is preprinted on the Check including the MICR line; and all other information placed on the Check prior to the time of an image of the Check is captured (such as any required identification written on the front of the Check and any endorsements applied to the back of the Check). Customer acknowledges that current image technology may not capture all security features (e.g. watermarks) contained in the original paper checks, and agrees to assume any and all losses resulting from claims based on security features that do not survive the image process.

Collection of Check Images

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Bank may in its sole discretion determine the manner in which the Bank will seek to collect a Check Image deposited by Customer. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Bank may, at its option: (i) present or transfer the Check Image to the paying bank, a Federal Reserve Bank, image share/exchange network, or other collecting bank; (ii) create a Substitute Check from the Check Image and collect the Substitute Check; or (iii) request that Customer provide to the Bank the original paper check from which the Check Image was created and then collect the original paper check.

Rejection of deposits

After we receive Check images and all other required deposit information from you through the Service, we shall provisionally credit your designated account for the total amount of such Checks. The provisional credit is subject to final payment of the Checks and is also subject to your Account Agreement. You agree that all deposits received by us are subject to verification and final inspection and may be rejected by us in our sole discretion, and you shall be liable to the Bank for any errors, inaccuracies, breach of warranties and any other loss sustained by, or claim made against the Bank relating to such deposits. The Bank is not liable for any service or late charges that may be imposed against you due to the Bank's rejection of any Check that you transmit for deposit through the Service. In all cases, you are responsible for any loss or overdraft plus any applicable fees to your account due to a Check being returned. You acknowledge and agree that, while we normally provide notice of rejected deposits, we may reject any Check transmitted through the Service in our sole discretion without notice to you, and we will not be liable for any such rejection or failure to notify you of such rejection. If we reject a Check for remote deposit, you must physically deposit the original Check.

Golden Valley Bank reserves the right to reject any deposit (as an Electronic Deposit or otherwise) for any reason. Golden Valley Bank will notify the Customer of the rejection of any deposit.

Returns

Customer agrees that the Bank may charge the account of Customer for any and all returned items, including a returned Check Image.

Re-presentment of Returns

In the event Golden Valley Bank, in its sole discretion, determines that it requires the original paper check for re-presentment in order to collect a returned Check Image, Customer shall be responsible for providing to the Bank the original paper check, or if the original paper check has been destroyed, for obtaining a replacement check.

Unpaid checks

You are solely responsible for verifying that Checks that you deposit by using the Service have been received and accepted for deposit by the Bank. The Bank will provide you with notice of any deposits that it is unable to process because Checks were returned unpaid by the payor financial institution. You agree to accept such notices at your e-mail address on file with us, but we may choose any reasonable method for providing such notices to you. In the event that the Bank credits your account for a Check that is subsequently dishonored and returned, you authorize the Bank to debit the amount of such Check plus any associated fees from the account. To the extent that funds in your account are insufficient to cover such amount, we shall debit the deficiency amount from any of your other account(s) with the Bank in our sole discretion. Our right to charge your account(s) will apply without regard to whether the Check was timely returned or whether there is any other claim or defense that the Check was improperly returned. You understand and agree, that since the original Check is your property, it will not be returned and the Bank may charge back an image of the Check, an ACH debit, or other electronic or paper debit, as applicable, to your account. You further agree that any image that we charge back may be in the form of an electronic or paper reproduction of the original Check or a substitute check. You may not use the Service to deposit a substitute check and you may not deposit the original Check through the Service or in any other manner if you receive a dishonored Check. You agree to comply with any additional instructions we may provide to you in connection with returned Checks.

Availability of Service/Contingency

In the event you are unable to capture, balance, process, produce or transmit a file to the Bank, or otherwise comply with the terms or the Procedures for any reason, including but not limited to, communications, equipment or software outages, interruptions or failures, you will transport or mail the originals of all checks to the Bank. The deposit of original checks at the Bank shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the Deposit Account Agreement and not by the terms of this Agreement.

Storage, security and destruction/disposal deposited checks

The bank will not notify you once a deposit has been accepted. It is your responsibility to verify your deposit has been accepted by reviewing your account history through any available channel (mobile banking, online banking, etc.) After you verify your deposit has been accepted, you must securely store the original Check for 14 days after transmission to us and make the original Check accessible to us at our request. Upon our request from time to time, you will deliver to us within two Business Days, at your expense, the requested original Check in your possession. If not provided in a timely manner, such amount will be reversed from your account. To mitigate against potential fraud or the presentment of duplicate items, Customer agrees to clearly mark on the original paper check that the item has been deposited electronically, after successfully capturing the Check Image and receiving confirmation that the item was received and accepted for deposit by the Bank. Promptly after the 14-day retention period expires, you must destroy the original Check by first marking it "VOID" and then destroying it by cross-cut shredding or another commercially acceptable means of destruction. After destruction of the original Check, the image will be the sole evidence of the original Check. You agree that you will never re- present the original Check. You understand that you are responsible if anyone is asked to make a payment based on an original check that has already been paid.

Presenting checks more than once

Once you have used the Service to deposit a Check you agree not to present, or allow anyone else to present, that original Check or a substitute check of that original Check again for deposit through the Service or by any other means. If you or anyone else present a Check or substitute check for deposit more than once, in violation of this Agreement, you agree to indemnify, defend and hold the Bank harmless from and against all liability and damages that may result from any claims, suits or demands from third parties with respect to such Check or substitute check. You agree that we may debit from your Bank account the aggregate amount of any Checks that are deposited more than once. To the extent that funds in your account are insufficient to cover such amount, we shall debit the deficiency amount from any other of your account(s) with the Bank in our sole discretion. Presentment of checks more than once will result in a termination of your mobile deposit access and MyGVB Mobile

Representations and Warranties for Deposited Checks

In addition Customer is deemed to make to the Bank any representation or warranty that the Bank makes, under applicable law, clearinghouse rule, Federal Reserve Operating Circular, bi-lateral agreement or otherwise, to any person (including without limitation a collecting Golden Valley Bank, a Federal Reserve Bank, a Receiving Depository Financial Institution, a paying bank, a returning bank, the drawee, the drawer, any endorser, or any other transferee) when the Bank transfers, presents or originates the Electronic Deposit or Check Image, or a Substitute Check created from that Check Image.
