1 APY = Annual Percentage Yield. This rate schedule states rates applicable to specified accounts. Dividends are compounded daily and credited every month. This schedule is incorporated as a part of your account agreement with your credit union. Minimum balance requirements apply to average daily balance (amount of principal in account each day). All savings rates are variable, which means the dividend rate and annual percentage yield may change at any time as determined by the Board of Directors. Please see Truth in Savings section of the Membership Disclosure for more information.

2 You may “‘bump-up’” your dividend rate once to the current market rate during the term of your certificate; by doing so, the term and maturity of the certificate will not change. You also have the option of depositing money to your certificate once during the term. Deposit funds must be brought from an external source. You may exercise each of these options once during each term of a certificate. You may exercise one or both of these options; if exercising both, they may be done at the same time, or at different times, during the term. If you exercise one or both of these options, the maturity date of your certificate will remain the same as originally scheduled. These options will be at no cost to you and are only available on the 24- and 30-month term share certificates. PLEASE NOTE: THE BUMP-UP OPTION IS NOT AVAILABLE ON ANY PROMOTIONAL RATE CERTIFICATES. Rates subject to change.
