    *APY is annual percentage yield. Rates quoted are in effect 2/1/2023 and are subject to change. Any early withdrawal penalty may reduce earnings on certificates.

    Compounding Frequency. For all term share certificates offered, the dividends will be compounded and credited to your account every quarter and at maturity. Alternatively, you may choose to have dividends paid to you or to another account quarterly and at maturity rather than credited to this account.

    Daily Balance Computation Method. Dividends are calculated by the daily balance method, which applies a daily periodic rate to your balance each day.

    Withdrawal of Dividends Prior to Maturity. The annual percentage yield is based on an assumption that dividends will remain in the account until maturity. A withdrawal may reduce earnings.

    Marketwatcher option allows you to increase your rate during the term one time to the current rate by notifying us and adding $100 to your youth certificate. Your maturity date will remain the same and you will earn the higher rate for the remaining certificate term.

    You will have a grace period of ten calendar days after maturity to withdrawal the fund without being charged an early withdrawal penalty.
