Hopewell Valley Community Bank Terms and Conditions

Online Information Sheet, Disclosures, and Access Agreement

Welcome to HVCB Online SM!
This Online Cash Management Agreement and Disclosure (the "Agreement") discusses how you can use HVCB Online SM (the "Service") to obtain information about your accounts, to transfer funds between your accounts, and to request certain other bank services. It also contains the terms and conditions governing the Service.

If you previously registered for HVCB Online, this version of the Agreement replaces the agreement that you had with us. If you continue to use the Service, you are bound by these terms.

Under this updated Agreement, corporate customers can use the Service to transfer funds between their Hopewell Valley Community Bank accounts. (Commercial customers can use the Service to transfer funds between their accounts if they have the appropriate agreement on file. See Registration -- Business Accounts, below.) IF YOU ARE A CORPORATE CUSTOMER AND DO NOT WISH TO HAVE THE ABILITY TO TRANSFER FUNDS BETWEEN ACCOUNTS USING HVCB ONLINE, PLEASE CALL US AT 1-609-466-2900, AND WE WILL REMOVE THAT FUNCTION FROM YOUR SERVICE.

If you use HVCB Online, you thereby indicate your consent to these terms. You may print a copy of this Agreement for your records now, or you can refer to this document in the Online Help section later at your convenience.

HVCB ONLINE E-MAIL COMMUNICATIONS
Electronic messages sent and received via the "Contact Us" option in HVCB Online (i.e., once your Access ID and Password have been accepted by Hopewell Valley Community Bank and your browser shows that a secure connection has been established) are secure. Communications sent over the public Internet are not necessarily secure. Therefore, we will not send, and we strongly suggest that you do not send, any confidential account information unless using the electronic communication options provided in our Customer Service section. You agree that we may take a reasonable time to act on any e-mail. Correspondence that requires expeditious handling -- for example, if you need to report an unauthorized transaction from one of your accounts, or if you need to immediately stop payment on a check you have issued, should be made by calling the Bank at 1-609-466-2900. You agree that Hopewell Valley Community Bank may send you electronic messages about other products or services we offer.

REGISTRATION
Business Accounts. Hopewell Valley Community Bank business account customers must first contact the Bank and enroll in HVCB Online Cash Management Services. For more information, see the Access ID Agreement and Disclosure that you will obtain when you receive your Access Identifier Enrollment Form. If your business has previously received an Access ID, your representative may enter it to register for HVCB Online.

Accounts you want to link to an Access ID, and what activity level each account linked to your Access ID will have. There are some limits on the accounts that can be linked to your Access ID. The person you appoint as your Access ID Administrator will decide which of your accounts to link to each Access ID and what activity level is appropriate for each account linked to the Access ID.

Activity Levels for Accounts Linked to Your Access ID. There are different activity levels that can be assigned to an Access ID. All available accounts will have at least the Account Summary level. Only checking, savings, money market deposit accounts, and loan accounts may also have the second activity level. At the present time, the activity levels are:

(1) Account Inquiry: This activity level will allow you to obtain current account balance and transaction information for the previous 60 days. This activity level does not include transferring funds.

(2) Transferring Funds: This activity level allows you to obtain account information, to transfer funds between accounts linked to the Access ID, and to obtain certain other banking services. Each checking, savings, money market, and loan account linked to your Access ID will have this activity level, unless you choose otherwise.

(3) Bill Payment: This activity level will include the right to make payments to third parties through our Online Cash Management Service.

FUNDS TRANSFER SERVICE 
If you are a consumer, and you have an Access ID and Password from us, you will be able to transfer funds between your Hopewell Valley Community Bank accounts, as well as between your Hopewell Valley Community Bank accounts and accounts outside of Hopewell Valley Community Bank. If you do not want to have the ability to funds transfer between accounts using HVCB Online, or if you want to restrict the accounts from which you can transfer funds using your Access ID and Password, call us at 1-609-466-2900, and we will make the necessary adjustments to this service for you.

Commercial customers must have an Access ID linked to an account with at least a Funds Transfer activity level to be able to transfer funds between accounts.

The terms that apply to the Funds Transfer Service are set forth more fully below.

ONLINE CASH MANAGEMENT FUNDS TRANSFER PROVISIONS
As a HVCB Online customer, you can make immediate transfers between your Hopewell Valley Community Bank deposit accounts over the Internet. All such transfers are subject to the terms of these Online Cash Management Funds Transfer Provisions (the "Transfer Provisions").

You can also use HVCB Online to transfer funds between certain line of credit accounts and your deposit accounts. Transfers are not permitted from one line of credit account to another line of credit account.

By using the Funds Transfer Service (the "Service"), you agree to these Transfer Provisions.

1. General Information.

a. Meaning Of Terms. As used in the Transfer Provisions, the following words have the meanings given below.
“You” and “your(s)” refer to each person (including any business) who applies to use the Service, and each person who uses the Service with the permission of an applicant.
“Business” means any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, sole proprietorship, or any other type of entity maintaining a deposit account for commercial purposes.
“We,” “us,” “our(s),” “Hopewell Valley Community Bank,” or “Bank” refer to the Hopewell Valley Community Bank depository institution that holds an account that is accessed by the Service.
“Business Day” means Monday through Friday, except banking holidays.

b. Which Sections of These Provisions Apply to Consumer and Business Customers.
Exclusion. When using the Service in connection with accounts established primarily for personal, family, or household purposes (“consumer” or “personal” accounts), Sections 1, 2, and 3, (but not Section 4) of these Transfer Provisions apply to you. When using the Service in connection with accounts established primarily for business purposes, Sections 1, 2, and 4 of these Transfer Provisions (but not Section 3) apply to you.

c. Authorization To Charge Accounts. You are responsible for all transfers you or your authorized representative make using the Service. You authorize us to debit your designated account(s) for any transactions accomplished through the use of the Service (including the transfer of funds from another deposit account or overdraft line of credit that provides overdraft protection, if you have one of those services in effect). You agree that we may comply with transfer instructions entered by any one person using an authorized Access ID and Password, notwithstanding any provision that may be contained in other account documentation purporting to require more than one signature to withdraw funds from the account.

If you permit another person to use HVCB Online or give them your Access ID or Password, you are responsible for transfers, payments or advances that person makes from the deposit and credit accounts linked to your Service registration even if that person exceeds your authorization.

d. Schedule of Fees For the Funds Transfer Service. Fees applicable to the funds transfer service are disclosed under Charges and Fees below.

2. Online Cash Management Funds Transfer Service Particulars.

a. Types of Transfers; Posting. You can transfer funds between your Checking, Savings, and Money Market accounts using HVCB Online. All such transfers are effective when you complete the transaction online.

You can also transfer funds between your deposit accounts and certain line of credit accounts using HVCB Online. Transfers to a line of credit account will not be reflected in your line of credit account until the business day following the day on which you complete the transaction. You cannot transfer funds between line of credit accounts using the Service.

b. Limits On Transactions. There is a maximum dollar limit on any transfer equal to the available balance in your account plus the available balance or credit balance in any other account or line of credit attached to the deposit account to provide overdraft protection.

c. Availability. Funds must be available in the account from which you wish to transfer funds on the date you enter the transaction.

d. Restrictions on Transfers from Savings and Money Market Accounts. Under Federal Reserve Board Regulation D, you may make an unlimited number of deposits or transfers into a savings or money market account; however, you may make no more than six transfers or withdrawals out of such an account per monthly statement cycle (not counting transactions made at ATMs or at banking centers). Transfers made by telephone, personal computer, or funds automatically transferred from a savings or money market account to another deposit account for overdraft protection are counted toward the six total permitted monthly transfers or withdrawals. If your transactions exceed the legal limit, we will charge you a fee for each such transaction in excess of the legal limit. If you exceed the restrictions more than three times during a 12-month period, we will close the savings or money market account and transfer the funds to a checking account. On Regular Savings accounts, we charge a fee for each withdrawal or transfer in excess of three per month (in excess of one for Custom Savings and Military Banking customers). The amount of these fees and the minimum balances necessary to avoid these fees, where applicable, are set forth in the Schedule of Fees at the end of this Agreement.

e. Insufficient Funds to Complete Transfer. If your account does not have sufficient funds to complete a transfer as of the date the transfer is scheduled to be made, the transfer may not be completed, but if we do complete the transfer as an accommodation to you, you are responsible for any overdraft created.

f. Correcting or Canceling Your Transfer. You cannot cancel your transfer after it has been entered in HVCB Online and the information transmitted to us. You can correct information about a transfer before you send us the information, and you can use HVCB Online to reverse a transaction after it has been entered.

g. Documentation and Verification of Transfers. The date and amount of transfers made through HVCB Online will be shown on the Transaction History screen of HVCB Online, and will also be shown on your printed statements for the accounts from which and to which the transfer is made.

h. Address and Telephone Number For Notification Of Unauthorized Use. If you believe your Access ID or password has become known by an unauthorized person, or that someone has transferred money without your permission, call Hopewell Valley Community Bank immediately at: 1-(877) 777-2075, or write to: Hopewell Valley Community Bank, Post Office Box 999, Pennington, New Jersey 08534. If you suggest that an unauthorized transfer may have occurred, we may require you to sign an affidavit.

Also contact us with any other questions or problems that you may have regarding the Service, including:

* You have a problem with a transfer you authorized, or your statement reflects a transfer you think is in error.
* You need to obtain documentation concerning a transfer previously issued from your account. (There may be a fee for these requests, as disclosed in the Schedule of Fees at the end of this Agreement).

i. Disclosure of Account Information. We may disclose information to third parties about your account or the payments or transfers you make:
* When necessary for verifying or completing payments or transfers, or to resolve a problem related to a payment or transfer;
* To verify the existence and status of your account for a third party such as a credit bureau or merchant;
* At the Bank's discretion, to any of our subsidiaries or affiliates;
* If you give us your written (including electronic message) permission; or
* As otherwise permitted or required in the Bank's Deposit Agreement and Disclosures or other applicable agreements, or by law or government regulations.

3. Additional Provisions Applicable Only to Business Accounts.
When you transfer funds using HVCB Online in connection with business accounts, the information in this Section 4 applies to you.

a. Enrollment Form and Certification of Authority. Before using the Service, you must execute and deliver to us an Access Identifier Enrollment Form, which includes a Certification of Authority. This enrollment form is incorporated by reference as part of this Agreement. Only a person whose Access ID has a "Financial Transaction" or "Bill Payment" activity level may sign up for the HVCB Online SM Funds Transfer Service.

b. Protecting Your Access ID and Password. You agree that we may send confidential mailings, including Access ID and Password confirmations, to the current address shown in our records for your primary checking account, whether or not that address includes a designation for delivery to the attention of any particular individual; and you further agree that Hopewell Valley Community Bank will not be responsible or liable to you in any way in the event that such properly addressed information is intercepted by an unauthorized person, either in transit or at your place of business.

You agree to: (1) keep your Access ID and Password secure and strictly confidential, providing them only to authorized signers on your account(s) or other trusted employees, agents, etc. who you want to act as your representative to access your account(s); (2) instruct each person to whom you give your Access ID and Password that he or she is not to disclose them to any unauthorized person; and (3) immediately notify us and select a new Access ID and Password if you believe your confidential codes may have become known to an unauthorized person.

The Bank shall have no liability to you for any unauthorized payment or transfer made using your Access ID and Password that occurs before you have notified us of possible unauthorized use and we have had a reasonable opportunity to act on that notice. We reserve the right to suspend or cancel your Access ID and password, even without receiving such notice from you, if we suspect they are being used in an unauthorized or fraudulent manner.

c. Your Obligation to Examine Records And Report Discrepancies. The Bank provides no separate written confirmation of individual payments or transfers. Confirmation is provided through online information available from the Service and through your periodic mailed account statements. You agree to examine your statement promptly and to notify us immediately of any discrepancy between the statement and your other account records. You also agree to notify us immediately of any discrepancy you may find in reviewing online information. In no event shall the Bank be liable for interest compensation as described below, unless we are notified of a discrepancy within 30 days from the date of your first statement reflecting the discrepancy.

d. Acknowledgment of Commercially Reasonable Security Procedures. By using the Service, you acknowledge and agree that this Agreement sets forth security procedures for electronic banking transactions which are commercially reasonable. You agree to be bound by any instructions, whether authorized or unauthorized, which we implement in compliance with these procedures, unless you have given us prior notice of possible unauthorized use as described above (and we have had a reasonable opportunity to act on such notice).

e. Limitation of Bank's Liability. If we fail or delay in making a payment or transfer pursuant to your instructions, or if we make a payment or transfer in an erroneous amount which is less than the amount per your instructions, unless otherwise required by law, our liability shall be limited to interest on the amount which we failed to timely pay or transfer, calculated from the date on which the payment or transfer was to be made until the date it was actually made or you canceled the instructions. We may pay such interest either to you or the intended recipient of the payment or transfer, but in no event shall we be liable to both parties, and our payment to either party shall fully discharge any obligation to the other. If we make a payment or transfer in an erroneous amount which exceeds the amount per your instructions, or if we permit an unauthorized payment or transfer after we have had a reasonable time to act on a notice from you of possible unauthorized use as described above, unless otherwise required by law, our liability shall be limited to a refund of the amount erroneously paid or transferred, plus interest thereon from the date of the payment or transfer to the date of the refund, but in no event to exceed 60 days' interest. If we become liable to you for interest compensation under this Agreement or applicable law, such interest shall be calculated based on the average federal funds rate at the Federal Reserve Bank in the district where the Bank is headquartered for each day interest is due, computed on the basis of a 360-day year.

Unless otherwise required by law, in no event will the Bank be liable to you for special, indirect, or consequential damages including, without limitation, lost profits or attorneys' fees, even if we are advised in advance of the possibility of such damages.
