Rate Information
The annual percentage yield is a percentage rate that reflects the total amount of dividends to be paid on an account based on the dividend rate and frequency of compounding for an annual period. For all accounts, the dividend rate and annual percentage yield may change at any time as determined by the Credit Union's Board of Directors. The dividend rates and annual percentage yields are the rates and yields as of the last dividend declaration date that is set forth in the Rate Schedule. Money Market Investment accounts are tiered rate accounts. The balance ranges and corresponding dividend rates and annual percentage yields applicable to each tier are disclosed in the Rate Schedule. For Money Market Investment accounts, once a particular range is met, the dividend rate and annual percentage yield for that balance range will apply to the full balance of your account.
Rewards Accounts
For all Rewards accounts, you may qualify for monthly rewards if you meet the applicable minimum qualification requirements for each monthly qualification cycle. The monthly qualification cycle for all Rewards accounts is defined as the period beginning on the first calendar day of the month and ending on the last calendar day of the month. To meet the minimum qualification requirements, you must: 1) make 12 debit card purchases that post and settle to your account; 2) access Online Banking at least one time per month; 3) be enrolled in and receive eStatements.
Greater Kentucky Credit Union reserves the right to determine if a Rewards account is being maintained for a purpose other than day-to-day, primary checking account usage. Accountholders who persist in making debit card transactions in a calculated and limited fashion to meet monthly qualifications may have their accounts converted to a different checking account or closed. We also reserve the right to convert the account to a different checking account if account does not have consistent active use over three (3) consecutive monthly cycles. For High Yield Checking and Cash Back Checking, if you have met your qualifications for the specified qualification period, we will reimburse you for ATM fees up to $10.00 per calendar month. ATM-processed transactions do not qualify as debit card transactions. For any ATM fees of $5.00 or greater you will need to present a receipt to receive refund.
High Yield Savings
The High Yield Savings account is a tiered rate account and is available only to holders of a High Yield Checking or Cash Back Checking account. If you meet the minimum qualification requirements for your High Yield Checking or High Yield Checking Back account during the monthly qualification cycle, you will earn the first dividend rate and annual percentage yield listed for this account in the Rate Schedule on balances of $100,000.00 or less. You will also earn the second dividend rate and range of annual percentage yields listed for this account on balances over $100,000.00. If you do not meet all of the minimum qualification requirements during the monthly qualification cycle for the High Yield Checking or Cash Back Checking account, the third dividend rate and annual percentage yield as listed in the Rate Schedule will apply to the entire balance in your High Yield Savings account.

Certificate Disclosures
Rate Information
The annual percentage yield is a percentage rate that reflects the total amount of dividends to be paid on an account based on the dividend rate and frequency of compounding for an annual period. For all accounts, the dividend rate and annual percentage yield are fixed and will be in effect for the initial term of the account. During the term of a Two Year Flexible Traditional IRA Share Certificate, Two Year Flexible Roth IRA Share Certificate, or Two Year Flexible Coverdell Share Certificate accounts, you may increase the rate one time to the rate currently in effect for accounts of this type with the same term. For Jumbo Certificate accounts, the dividend rate and annual percentage yields are fixed and will be in effect for the initial term of your account unless your balance falls below $50,000.00. In that event, the dividend rate for your account will be reduced for the remainder of the term to the prevailing rate on Share Certificate accounts at the time you opened your Jumbo Certificate, with the same term. For all other accounts subject to dividend compounding, the annual percentage yield is based on an assumption that dividends will remain on deposit until maturity. A withdrawal of dividends will reduce earnings.
Dividend Period
For each account, the dividend period is the account’s term. The dividend period begins on the first day of the term and ends on the maturity date.
Dividend Compounding and Crediting
The compounding and crediting frequency of dividends are stated in the Rate Schedule. *At your option, you may choose to have dividends credited to your certificate account paid to your account. If you elect to have dividends paid to your account, compounding will not apply.
Balance Information
To open any account, you must deposit or already have on deposit the minimum required share(s) in any account. Some accounts may have additional minimum opening deposit requirements. The minimum balance requirements applicable to each account are set forth in the Rate Schedule. For all accounts, dividends are calculated by the daily balance method which applies a daily periodic rate to the principal in the account each day.
Accrual of Dividends
For all accounts, dividends will begin to accrue on noncash deposits (e.g. checks) on the business day you make the deposit to your account.
Transaction Limits
For all accounts, your ability to make deposits to your account and any limitations on such transactions are stated in the Rate Schedule. After your account is opened, you may make withdrawals subject to the early withdrawal penalties stated below and your account will be closed. For all Certificate accounts, excluding the Jumbo Certificate, partial withdrawals are not allowed.
Maturity
Your account will mature as stated on this Truth-in-Savings Disclosure or on your Account Receipt or Renewal Notice.
Early Withdrawal Penalty
We may impose a penalty if you withdraw funds from your account before the maturity date.
Amount of Penalty
For 90 Day Super Saver Share Certificate, 90 Day Super Saver Traditional IRA Share Certificate, 90 Day Super Saver Roth IRA Certificate, and 90 Day Coverdell Share Certificate accounts, the amount of the early withdrawal penalty for your account is all accrued uncredited dividends.

How the Penalty Works
The penalty is calculated as a forfeiture of part of the dividends that have been or would be earned on the account. It applies whether or not the dividends have been earned. In other words, if the account has not yet earned enough dividends or if the dividends have already been paid, the penalty will be deducted from the principal.
Exceptions to Early Withdrawal Penalties
At our option, we may pay the account before maturity without imposing an early withdrawal penalty under the following circumstances:
- When an account owner dies or is determined legally incompetent by a court or other body of competent jurisdiction.
- Where the account is an Individual Retirement Account (IRA) and any portion is paid within seven (7) days after the establishment of the account; or where the account is a Keogh Plan (Keogh), provided that the depositor forfeits an amount at least equal to the simple dividends earned in the amount withdrawn; or where the account is an IRA or Keogh and the owner attains age 59½ or becomes disabled.

The renewal policy for your accounts is stated in the Rate Schedule. For 90 Day Super Saver Share Certificate, 90 Day Super Saver Traditional IRA Share Certificate, 90 Day Super Saver Roth IRA Share Certificate, and 90 Day Coverdell Share Certificate accounts that automatically renew for another term, you have a grace period of five (5) days after maturity in which to withdraw funds in the account without being charged an early withdrawal penalty.
