Overdraft coverage differs from other overdraft services we offer, such as linking your account to another

EXPLANATION OF OVERDRAFT COVERAGE
Overview of Coverage
We currently provide overdraft coverage for your account. This means that if you attempt to spend or
withdraw more money than you have in your account, we may decide to pay the overdrawn amount.
Having overdraft coverage does not guarantee that we will pay your overdrafts. If we do, we will charge
you fees. This coverage differs from other overdraft services we offer, such as linking your account to
another account with us or an overdraft line of credit.
Your Right to Opt Out of Overdraft Coverage
You may tell us not to pay overdrafts for ATM withdrawals and debit card purchases you make at
a store, online, or by telephone. [If you do, we will decline these transactions if you do not have
enough money in your account to cover them.] As a result, you may pay fewer overdraft fees.
Your decision to opt out will not affect whether we pay overdrafts for other types of transactions,
including checks. We may still cover these transactions and charge you a fee. See below for more
information about your overdraft coverage, including how to contact us to opt out.
