Deposit Account Disclosure and General Rules

DEPOSIT ACCOUNT AGREEMENT

General Agreement. The terms "you" and "your" refer to the depositor (whether joint or individual) and the terms "we," "us" and "our" refer to Somerset Regal Bank. The acronym "NOW" means Negotiable Order of Withdrawal. You understand the following Account Agreement ("Agreement") governs your account with us. Your account is also governed by other applicable documents, such as the Truth In Savings Account Disclosure and Privacy Policy, and where applicable, the Funds Availability Policy and Electronic Fund Transfer Agreement ("Disclosures"), which are incorporated by reference.

General Rules. The following rules apply to all types of accounts:

Deposits. Deposits may be made in person or by mail. We are not responsible for transactions mailed until we actually receive and record them. We may, at our sole discretion, refuse to accept particular instruments as deposits. Cash deposits are credited to your account according to this Agreement. Other items you deposit are handled by us according to our usual collection practices. If an item you deposit is returned unpaid, we will debit your account and adjust any interest earned. You are liable to us for the amount of any check you deposit to your account that is returned unpaid. In addition, you are liable to us for all costs and expenses related to the collection of any or all of that amount from you. Funds deposited to your account are available in accordance with the Disclosures.

Collection of Deposited Items. In receiving items for deposit or collection, we act only as your agent and assume no responsibility beyond the exercise of ordinary care. All items are credited subject to final settlement in cash or credits. We shall have the right to forward items to correspondents including all Federal Reserve Banks, and we shall not be liable for default or neglect of said correspondents for loss in transit, nor shall any correspondent be liable except for its own negligence. You specifically authorize us or our correspondents to utilize Federal Reserve Banks to handle such items in accordance with provisions of Regulation J (12CFRPart210), as revised or amended from time to time by the Federal Reserve Board. In the event we are subject to local clearinghouse rules, you specifically authorize us to handle such items in accordance with the rules and regulations of the clearinghouse. If we permit you to withdraw funds from your account before final settlement has been made for any deposited item, and final settlement is not made, we have the right to charge your account or obtain a refund from you. In addition, we may chargeback any deposited item at anytime before final settlement for whatever reason. We shall not be liable for any damages resulting from the exercise of these rights. Except as may be attributable to our lack of good faith or failure to exercise ordinary care, we will not be liable for dishonor resulting from any reversal of credit, return of deposited items or for any damages resulting from any of those actions.

Set-offs. We may set-off funds in your account and any other accounts held by you, jointly or individually, to pay any debt you may owe us; this includes any item(s) that we have cashed for you that are returned to us unpaid. If the account is a joint account, we may offset funds for the debt of any one of the owners.

Claims. In response to any garnishment, attachment, restraining order, injunction, levy, citation to discover assets, judgment, reclamation, other order of court or other legal process ("Claim(s)"), we have the right to place a hold on, remove from your account(s) and/or remit to the designated third-party (ies) any amount on deposit in your account as set forth in and required by such Claim(s). If the account(s) is/are held jointly, we may place the hold, remove from the account(s) and/or remit the amounts from the account(s) arising from any Claim(s) relating to any one or more of the account holders. In addition, we may charge against your account(s) any fee authorized by law in connection with the Claim(s) or as otherwise set forth in the Disclosures.

Expenses. You agree to be liable to us for any loss, costs or expenses that we incur as a result of any dispute involving your account, including reasonable attorneys' fees to the extent permitted by law, and you authorize us to deduct such loss, costs or expenses from your account without prior notice to you.

Dormant Accounts. You understand that if your account is dormant, you may be charged the fee specified in the Disclosures and we may stop paying interest to the extent permitted by law. You understand that your account balance may be escheated (that is, turned over to the state) in accordance with state law.

Release of Funds upon Death. Upon the death of any person named on the account, funds will be subject to the procedures set forth in New Jersey's estate tax statutes.

Multiple-Party Accounts. If your account is designated as a multiple-party account, trust account, or P.O.D. account, it will be subject to the provisions of the Multiple Party Deposit Account Act, N.J.S.A. 17:16I-1 et seq. (P.L. 1979, c.491). We will not have any liability for any payments made pursuant to the Act.

Joint Account. If this account is noted as a joint account, ownership of this account cannot be changed by will. Each party to this account has a present right to payment from this account. Each party owns his/her net contribution to the account. In the absence of proof of net contribution, and unless the parties have specifically otherwise agreed, each party will own an equal share of this account. We may make payment from this account, including payment of the entire account balance, (i) pursuant to any statutory or common law right of setoff, levy, attachment or other valid legal process or court order, relating to the interest of anyone or more of the parties; and (ii) on request to a trustee in bankruptcy, receiver in any state or Federal insolvency proceeding, or other duly authorized insolvency representative of anyone or more of the parties. We are not required to determine net contributions. Upon the death of a party to this account: (a) Where there is only one surviving party, the entire account will belong to the survivor; (b) Where there are two or more surviving parties each party will continue to own his/her proportionate share. The portion of the account owned by the deceased party will be shared equally by the survivors. Any person named on the account is liable for the amount of any overdraft regardless of whether he or she signed the item or benefited from the proceeds of the item. Upon receiving written notice from any person named on the account, we may freeze the account. The account may be frozen until we receive written notice, signed by all parties named in the account, as to the disposition of funds.

In Trust For or Payable on Death Account. If this account is noted as an In Trust For or Payable on Death account, the trustee(s) may change the named beneficiary (ies) at anytime by a written direction to us. The trustee(s) reserves the right to withdraw all or part of the deposit at anytime. Such payment or withdrawal shall constitute a revocation of the trust agreement as to the amount withdrawn. The beneficiary (ies) acquires the right to withdraw only if: (i) all of the trustees die, and (ii) the beneficiary is then living. The beneficiary (ies) is only entitled to the amount that is in the trust after the entire trustee's(s') outstanding checks and debits have been paid. If all of the beneficiaries predecease the trustee(s), the named beneficiary's (ies') death shall terminate the trust and title to the money that is credited to the trust shall vest in the trustee(s). If two or more beneficiaries are named and survive the death of all of the trustees, such beneficiaries will own this account in equal shares without right of survivorship.

Custodial Account. A custodial account is subject to applicable law as adopted by the state in which the account is opened. The documents that authorize the custodianship may be required for the account. An account opened under the Uniform Transfers/Gifts to Minors Act must be opened in the name of a custodian "as custodian for (name of minor) under the Uniform Transfer to Minors Act". There may be only one custodian and one minor as beneficiary for each minor account.

Change in Form of Account. If this is a multiple-party account, you may only change the form of this account by a written notice or order given to us by a person named on the account which orders us to change the form of the account or to stop or vary payment under the terms of the account. The order or request must be signed by a person named on the account, received by us during that person's lifetime, and not countermanded by other written order of the same person during his or her life time. We may require that the person giving the notice provide us with a current address for every other party affected by the notice.

Power of Attorney. If you wish to name another person to act as your attorney in fact or agent in connection with your account, we must approve the form of appointment.

Fees, Service Charges and Balance Requirements. You agree you are responsible for any fees, charges, balance, or deposit requirements as stated in the Disclosures.

Non-Sufficient Funds. If your account lacks sufficient available funds to pay a check, preauthorized transfer, or other debit activity presented for payment, we may return such item for non-sufficient funds and may charge you a fee as provided in the Disclosures, subject to our Overdraft Policy, if any. We may process checks and any other debit activity in any order, including from highest dollar amount to lowest dollar amount.

Amendments and Alterations. You agree that the terms and conditions governing your account may be amended by us from time to time. We will notify you of amendments as required by applicable law. Your continued use of the account evidences your agreement to any amendments. Notices will be sent to the most recent address shown on the account records. Only one notice will be given in the case of joint accountholders.

Notices. You are responsible for notifying us of any address or name changes, the death of an accountholder or other information affecting your account. Notices must be in a form and manner acceptable to us with enough information to allow us to identify the account. Notice sent by you to us is not effective until we have received it and have a reasonable opportunity to act on it. Written notice sent by us to you is effective when mailed to the last address supplied.

Closing Account. We may close the account at any time, with or without cause, by sending you notice and a check for the balance in our possession to which you are entitled. At our discretion, we have the authority to pay an otherwise properly payable check, which is presented after the closing of your account.

Transfers and Assignments. You cannot assign or transfer any interest in your account unless we agree in writing.

Applicable Laws and Regulations. You understand that this Agreement is governed by the laws of the state in which the account is opened unless federal law controls. Changes in these laws may change the terms and conditions of your account. We will notify you of any changes as required by law.

ACH and Wire Transfers. This Agreement is subject to Article4A of the Uniform Commercial Code-Funds Transfers as adopted by the state in which the account is opened. If you send or receive a wire transfer, you agree that Fedwire® Funds Service may be used. Federal Reserve Board Regulation J is the law that covers transactions made over Fedwire® Funds Service. When you originate a funds transfer for which Fedwire® Funds Service is used, and you identify by name and number a beneficiary financial institution, an intermediary financial institution or a beneficiary, we and every receiving or beneficiary institution may rely on the identifying number to make payment. We may rely on the number even if it identifies a financial institution, person or account other than the one named. If you are a party to an Automated Clearing House ("ACH") entry, you agree to be bound by the rules and regulations of the National Automated Clearing House Association ("NACHA") Operating Rules, the Rules of any local ACH, and the Rules of any other system through which the entry is made. Provisional Payment. Credit we give you with respect to an ACH credit entry is provisional until we receive final settlement for that entry through a Federal Reserve Bank. If we do not receive final settlement, you agree that we are entitled to a refund of the amount credited to you in connection with the entry, and the party making payment to you via such entry (i.e., the originator of the entry) shall not be deemed to have paid you in the amount of such entry. International ACH Transactions. If your transaction originates from a financial agency that is outside of the territorial jurisdiction of the United States, it may be subject to additional review for compliance with the rules of the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC).If additional review is required, the International ACH transaction will not be available to you until it passes final verification. Notice of Receipt. Under the operating rules of NACHA, which are applicable to ACH transactions involving your account, we are not required to give next day notice to you of receipt of an ACH item and we will not do so. However, we will continue to notify you of the receipt of payments in the periodic statements we provide to you. Choice of Law. We may accept on your behalf payments to your account which have been transmitted through one or more ACH transactions that are not subject to the Electronic Fund Transfer Act and your rights and obligations with respect to such payments shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the state where this account is opened as provided by the operating rules of NACHA, which are applicable to ACH transactions involving your account.

Payment of Interest. If this is an interest bearing account, the interest is calculated and paid in accordance with the Disclosures.

Stop Payments. If you request us to stop payment on a check you have written or on a preauthorized transfer, you will give written or other confirmation as allowed by us within 14 days of making the request. If you fail to confirm an oral stop payment request within the 14 days, we reserve the right to cancel the request. Requests to stop all future payments on a preauthorized transfer may require additional documentation to be supplied to us. Your stop payment request must describe the item or account with reasonable certainty and we must receive the request in a time and way that gives us a reasonable opportunity to act on it. A stop payment on a check you have written will remain in effect for 6 months or until we receive written revocation of the stop payment, which ever occurs first. A stop payment on a preauthorized transfer will remain in effect until we receive a withdrawal of the stop payment request or the return of the debit entry (ies), whichever occurs first. You may be charged a fee every time you request a stop payment, even if it is a continuation of a previous stop payment request. You understand that we may accept the stop payment request from any of the joint owners of the account regardless of who signed the check or authorized the transfer. Our acceptance of a stop payment request does not constitute a representation by us that the item has not already been paid or that we have had a reasonable opportunity to act on the request.

Checks. All negotiable paper ("checks") presented for deposit must be in a format that can be processed and we may refuse to accept any check that does not meet this requirement. All endorsements on the reverse side of any check deposited into your account, or on any check issued by you, must be placed on the left side of the check when looking at it from the front, and must be placed so as to not go beyond an area located 1-1/2 inches from the left edge of the check when looking at it from the front. It is your responsibility to ensure that this requirement is met. You are responsible for any loss incurred by us for failure of an endorsement to meet this requirement.

Substitute Checks. To make check processing faster, federal law permits financial institutions to replace original checks with "substitute checks." These checks are similar in size to original checks with a slightly reduced image of the front and back of the original check. The front of a substitute check states: "This is a legal copy of your check. You can use it the same way you would use the original check. "You may use a substitute check as proof of payment just like the original check. Some or all of the checks that you receive back from us may be substitute check(s).

Stale or Postdated Checks. We reserve the right to pay or dishonor a check more than 6 months old without prior notice to you. If you can write checks on your account, you agree not to postdate any check drawn on the account. If you do and the check is presented for payment before the date of the check, we may pay it or return it unpaid. We are not liable for paying any stale or postdated check. Any damages you incur that we may be liable for are limited to actual damages not to exceed the amount of the check.
Check Safekeeping. If you can write checks on your account and utilize check safekeeping or any other system offered by us for the retention of your checks, you understand that the canceled checks will be retained by us and destroyed after a reasonable time period or as required by law. If for any reason we cannot provide you with a copy of a check, our liability will be limited to the lesser of the face amount of the check or the actual damages sustained by you. When you request a copy of a check it may be subject to a fee as defined in the Disclosures.
Statements. If your account is a Checking, NOW, Money Market, or Statement Savings account, we will provide you with a periodic statement showing the account activity. The accountholder who receives this statement is the agent for his/her co-accountholder(s) for purposes of receiving the statement and items. You must notify us within 30 days after we mail or otherwise make the statement available to you of any discrepancies. If you fail to notify us, you will have no claim against us. However, if the discrepancy is the result of an electronic fund transfer, the provisions of our Disclosures will control its resolution. If you do not receive a statement from us because you have failed to claim it, or have supplied us with an incorrect address, we may stop sending your statements until you specifically make written request that we resume sending your statements and you supply us with a proper address.

Facsimile Signatures. You authorize us, at anytime, to charge you for all checks, drafts, or other orders for the payment of money, that are drawn on us regardless of by whom or by what means the facsimile signature(s) may have been affixed so long as they resemble the facsimile signature specimen in our files and contain the required number of signatures for this purpose. If your items are signed using any facsimile signature or non-manual form of signature, you acknowledge that it is solely for your benefit and convenience. You accept sole responsibility for maintaining security over any device affixing the signature as such signature will be effective regardless of whether the person affixing it was authorized to do so.

Restrictive Legends. We are not required to honor any restrictive legend on checks you write unless we have agreed to the restriction in a writing signed by an officer of the financial institution. Examples of restrictive legends are "must be presented within 90 days" or "not valid for more than $1,000.00."

No Waiver. You understand and agree that no delay or failure on our part to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege available to us under this Agreement shall affect or preclude our future exercise of that right, remedy, power or privilege.
