A primary member is allowed to open one (1) 10-Month Anniversary Tiered Term Certificate under the same member name and related tax identification number.

The 10-Month Anniversary Tiered Term Certificate is a tiered step-down rate structure. Dividend rates and APYs vary based on the account balance, the period of time funds remain on deposit, and whether qualification requirements are met. The Dividend Rate and APY for this certificate are not fixed and may change during the term based on qualification status.

To earn the disclosed introductory Promotional Period APYs, qualification requirements must be met during each qualification period, as described below. If qualification requirements are not met for any qualification period during the term of the certificate, the Dividend Rate and APY will be reduced to the Fallback APY for that qualification period.

Introductory Promotional Period (First 90 days) APYs:

• 7.50% APY on the first $3,000
• 4.00% APY on balances above $3,000

Remaining Term (Days 91days – to Maturity):

• 2.50% APY on the full balance until date of maturity

Fallback APY:

• 2.50% APY

The Fallback APY is equal to the APY applicable during the remaining term of the certificate following the introductory Promotional Period.

Qualification Requirement:

• To earn the introductory Promotional Period APYs during the first 90 days of the term, you must complete at least one qualifying checking account transaction within first 30 days of open date of the term certificate.
•  Qualifying checking account transactions include, but are not limited to, cash/check deposit or withdrawals, mobile deposits, direct deposits, debit card purchases, ATM transactions, bill payments, or check clearing transactions.

If the qualification requirement is not met within the 30-day period, the APY will be reduced to 2.50% for the Certificate’s term.

At maturity, the Term Certificate will automatically convert to a one-year Term Certificate at the prevailing rate.
