GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
The following terms and conditions apply to all Services offered through eBanking.

Computer Equipment and Internet Use
You are solely responsible for the maintenance, installation and operation of your computer and any Device, and for the hardware and software used in accessing eBanking. First Bank shall not be responsible for any errors, deletions, or failures that occur as a result of any malfunction of your computer, Device or software, nor will First Bank be responsible for any virus or malware that affects your computer, Device or software while using eBanking. By your use of eBanking, you acknowledge that the Internet is not a secure means for transmitting confidential information and understand and acknowledge that any information you provide, receive or request via the Internet can be intercepted and/or viewed by unknown third parties. First Bank does not guarantee that downloads from its website or eBanking will not contain a virus or other destructive device. It is your responsibility to protect your information and to maintain your computer and any Device with updated protection against viruses, malware, and spyware as provided in this Agreement. Additionally, you must have an Internet service provider with at least a 128-bit compliant web browser to utilize eBanking. It will be your responsibility to establish these. Any costs or fees to obtain these services or software are solely your responsibility.

Security
First Bank is committed to protecting the security and confidentiality of your Account information. We use multifactor authentication, which means that we may confirm your identity through multiple identifying methods, including, for example, a Username, Password (or Biometric ID or Mobile Passcode for Mobile Banking), or a verification code (collectively, “Access Controls”). You must have a valid Username and Password, or Bank approved security and authentication controls, to log in to eBanking. There are alternative log-in methods for logging into Mobile Banking, as described in the section of the Agreement titled “Mobile Banking”. We may require additional Access Controls, such as a verification code, for certain transactions or certain eBanking Services. 

The security measures provided herein are collectively referred to as the “Security Procedures.” Your use of eBanking and any eBanking Service constitutes your agreement that the Security Procedures for eBanking and that eBanking Service are commercially reasonable. We may change our Security Procedures at any time and may notify you in advance of any such change if advance notice is required. You agree to promptly implement the change upon receipt of our notice. Use of eBanking and any eBanking Service after we provide notice of a change constitutes your acceptance of the changed Security Procedures and that the Security Procedures, as changed, are commercially reasonable. We may deny you access to eBanking or any of the Services if you do not accept an updated Security Procedure or execute a proper waiver of the additionally-offered security procedures. We may also set limits for a particular Service.  

In addition to the use of multifactor authentication, we may, but shall not be required to, use the following methods of protecting your information:

  • You can only access eBanking with a web browser that uses at least a 128-bit encryption.
  • We may take additional steps to confirm your identity, including, but not limited to, the use of a one-time verification code, when we believe additional authentication is warranted.
  • We may temporarily suspend access to eBanking for any reason, including inactivity.
  • If you do not take action for a period of time while you are in an eBanking session, you will be automatically logged off.

You agree to the following:

  • You will never leave your computer or Device unattended while using eBanking.
  • ​​​​You will never leave your Account information displayed where it may be viewed by others.
  • You will always exit eBanking by logging out.
  • You will check your Account balances and activity daily and notify the First Bank Service Center at 1-800-760-BANK (2265) immediately if you suspect unauthorized access to your eBanking profile or Account has occurred.
  • You will read and stay aware of the best practices for eBanking security, as they may be updated from time to time.
  • You will read any best practices materials, updates, notices, or warnings from us and follow the guidance contained therein.

The purpose of the Security Procedures is to verify the authenticity of your transaction instructions delivered to us and are not implemented for the purpose of detecting errors in your transaction instructions or in their transmission, even if First Bank may take certain actions from time to time to do so.

You agree to be bound by any transaction facilitated through eBanking that we receive and verify following our Security Procedures, even if you did not authorize the transaction.  Further, except to the extent prohibited by applicable law or regulation, you will be deemed to have expressly authorized and agree to be bound by any transaction facilitated through eBanking:

  • Initiated by you, at your direction, with your Access Controls, or with your consent (whether express or implied);
  • Initiated by an agent or authorized representative with respect to any Account which you may access through eBanking;
  • Initiated by a member of your household, whether or not related to you;
  • Initiated by any person (or that person’s agent) who is the owner or co-owner of any Account which you may access through eBanking;
  • Which results in the transfer of funds between Accounts you may access through eBanking, even if subsequent transfers out of the Accounts benefits someone else;
  • Which is to or for your benefit (for example, the payment of a debt for which you are partially or fully liable); or
  • Which you contend is unauthorized, unless you cooperate fully with us in our investigation of the transaction, assign to us your right of recovery against the wrongdoer if we credit your Account, and cooperate fully with us in the recovery of any loss we sustain and the prosecution of any wrongdoer.

You accept responsibility for any unauthorized access to, and action (including transactions) taken through, eBanking using valid Access Controls, whether such access or action is taken by you, your authorized eBanking user, persons with access to your records, persons who have obtained access to your Access Controls through your failure to maintain adequate control over your Access Controls, computer, or Devices or persons to whom you have provided your Access Controls including persons who may have deceived or tricked you into providing such information or eBanking access. You will be solely responsible for any loss or damage suffered by you or a third party resulting directly or indirectly from your failure to comply with the required Security Procedures. In addition, you shall indemnify and hold First Bank harmless from and against any loss suffered or liability incurred by, or arising from, the execution of instructions in good faith and received and verified by First Bank in compliance with such Security Procedures.

You understand and acknowledge that neither First Bank nor any person acting on behalf of First Bank will request that you disclose your Access Controls, and you agree that you will not disclose any Access Controls or Security Procedures; provided that, if you contact us for log-in assistance, we may ask you if you know your Username to confirm your Username with you. You understand that this is the only context in which we will ask for your Username.

You hereby confirm that you have instituted proper controls over your computers, Devices, terminals, and equipment and procedures to protect your financial information and all Access Controls, as well as any other Security Procedures we may require from time to time. Unless otherwise provided by any applicable law, rule, or regulation, you are strictly responsible for establishing and maintaining procedures to safeguard against unauthorized access to eBanking Services including, if reasonably required, updates to such procedures and monitoring compliance with such procedures.

If you at any time have reason to believe or suspect that any such information or instructions have been disclosed to or accessed by any unauthorized person or used in a manner not authorized by you, you agree to notify us as soon as practicable, followed by written confirmation as provided under the “Notices and Communications between You and First Bank” section elsewhere in this Agreement. The occurrence of unauthorized access will not affect any transactions executed in good faith by us prior to receipt of such notification and after we have had a reasonable time to act on such notification.

You have sole responsibility for ensuring that your computers, Devices or other electronic equipment used to access and make use of eBanking and the Services are within your custody and control, secure and free from all types of electronic viruses and malware that may compromise their security or the security of the Access Controls. You acknowledge and understand that eBanking is accessed through the Internet, which is a public system over which we have no control. Accordingly, you should only use a computer, Device or other electronic device to enter any request under the Services that is in a secured location and that is used only by your authorized representatives and that your network and network hardware is secure. You further agree that it is your responsibility to set up, maintain, and review your security arrangements, and to update, maintain, and properly use industry standard security products that are appropriate for you, including firewalls, anti-virus protection, anti-spyware protection and patches that apply to a known exploitable vulnerability. You agree that no individual will be allowed to access or make use of the Services without proper supervision and strict security controls. You acknowledge that we are permitted to and will process any instructions submitted by using your Access Controls regardless of whether you submitted or authorized such instructions.

For Non-Consumer Accounts: You warrant that no individual will be allowed access to eBanking in the absence of proper supervision and safeguards and you agree to maintain the confidentiality of the Security Procedures and Access Controls and related instructions provided by us in connection with the applicable Security Procedures. You agree to train such persons with respect to the proper use and implementation of the Security Procedures and Access Controls and to provide ongoing and regular oversight and monitoring of those procedures and any individual who is allowed access to eBanking. You agree to establish and maintain your own internal security procedures and controls to ensure and promote the protection and confidentiality of the Security Procedures and the Access Controls.

For Consumer Accounts: Consumers should also see the "Your Liability for Unauthorized Electronic Fund Transfers and Error Resolution - Applicable to Consumer Accounts" section elsewhere in this Agreement. If there is a conflict between this paragraph and that section, the latter shall govern in the case of Consumer Accounts.

Account and Other Eligibility Requirements
To register for eBanking, you must maintain at least one of the following types of Accounts at First Bank:
Checking, Savings, Money Market, Certificate of Deposit (CD), Individual Retirement Account (IRA), Credit Card, or Loan Account.

By entering into this Agreement and using eBanking, you agree to maintain your Accounts properly, observe and comply with all rules applicable to them, and pay all fees associated with such Accounts.

If you are an individual, you agree to use eBanking for consumer or personal transactions; for example, this means using eBanking to electronically transfer funds to or from a Consumer Account. 

If you are not an individual, including, but not limited to, a sole proprietor, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, unincorporated business entity, or association, then you agree to use eBanking only for business purposes, and not for personal, family or household purposes and you are not a “consumer” under the Electronic Funds Transfer Act and its implementing Regulation E. If you are using eBanking for non-consumer transactions, you also agree to execute a resolution authorizing use of eBanking Services.

eBanking is offered only to residents of the United States who can form legally binding contracts under applicable law. Not every Account is eligible for every Service, and not every Service is available in both eBanking and Mobile Banking. Certain Services are available for Consumer Accounts only. Certain Services may be available only for Accounts owned by individuals who are age eighteen (18) or older, for example, Pay People, External Transfer and Bill Payment should not be used by individuals under the age of eighteen (18). If you are enrolled in such Services you acknowledge and represent that you are age eighteen (18) or older or that you are the legal guardian of any user under the age of eighteen (18) and that you shall be held responsible for any and all actions in connection with the Services.  Additional terms and conditions regarding any Account owned by an individual under the age of eighteen (18) may be provided in your Deposit Account Agreement. 

Linked Accounts and Joint Accounts
When you first enroll in eBanking, we will link all of your eligible Accounts to your Username (each a “Linked Account”).

Access to an eligible Account is based upon the type of account relationship you have with the Bank:

Individual Accounts:  Persons with individual Accounts may access individual Accounts of which they are an owner and may also access joint Accounts for which they are an owner.

Joint Accounts:  Persons will only be able to access joint Accounts for which they are designated as an owner. Each joint Account holder must enroll separately, and each enrolled joint Account holder is jointly and severally liable for all transactions performed by an enrolled joint Account holder.

If you designated an eligible Account to require more than one signature for the withdrawal or transfer of funds, you agree that we may act upon any instruction that is accompanied by Access Controls designated by you or your agent for that eligible Account and the Service in question. (Note: This may mean that we may act upon the instruction of only ONE person, even though the signature card for the Account in question requires two or more signatures on Checks). If an instruction pertaining to a particular Service is accompanied by the designated Access Controls, the transaction will be deemed authorized by you or your agent, as applicable. The terms of this Agreement will override any Other Agreement as to this issue.

Non-Consumer Accounts:  You agree that any individual who has access to your Account information in order to enroll in eBanking is authorized by you to access eBanking and utilize the Services.  

Username and Password
Except as otherwise provided herein for other means to access Mobile Banking, your Username and Password identify and authenticate you to First Bank when you use eBanking. You will be required to establish a Username and Password during your first online session through our online registration process after you have entered one of your existing Account numbers with First Bank that meets the Account requirements above. You determine what Password you will use, and your Password is not communicated to us. By establishing a Username and Password, you agree that you will (and for Non-Consumer Accounts, you agree to ensure that authorized eBanking users will):

  • Not disclose your Username and Password or otherwise make them available to anyone else, including other joint owners on the Account;
  • Be liable for your Username and Password and for their authorized and unauthorized use as described in this Agreement;
  • Know the codes that are a part of your Access Controls;
  • Create complex Passwords;
  • Change your Password regularly (and whenever we require a change); and
  • Notify the First Bank Service Center at 1-800-760-BANK (2265) immediately of any loss or theft of your Username or Password.

For security purposes, you must create a Username and Password that complies with our length and character guidelines, as may be revised from time to time. You will be provided with the Username and Password guidelines within eBanking when you are creating your Username and Password. Your Password should not be associated with information commonly known about or associated with you, such as your social security number, address, date of birth, children’s names, or pet’s names, and Passwords should be memorized rather than written down.

You acknowledge that we are entitled to rely on the use of your Username and Password as your authorization for any transaction initiated through eBanking. You are responsible for all transactions initiated or authorized using eBanking with the use of your Username and Password. If you permit any other person to use your eBanking Username and Password or share your eBanking Username and Password with any other person, you will have authorized that person to access your Accounts, and you are responsible for any transaction that person initiates or authorizes from your Accounts, even if that person has deceived or tricked you into providing your eBanking Username and Password. For example, if you screen share or allow another person to take control of your computer or Device, you are responsible for any transactions that are initiated.  We undertake no obligation to monitor transactions through eBanking to determine that they are made on behalf of the accountholder.

See the section of this Agreement titled “Mobile Banking” for alternative methods to log in to Mobile Banking; the above terms related to Username and Password apply if eBanking Services are authorized using a Biometric ID or a Mobile Passcode. You acknowledge that we are entitled to rely on the user of your Biometric ID or Mobile Passcode as your authorization for any transaction initiated through eBanking and you are responsible for all transactions initiated or authorized using eBanking with the use of your Biometric ID or Mobile Passcode.

For Consumer Accounts: If you suspect unauthorized use of your Username or Password, please see "Your Liability for Unauthorized Electronic Fund Transfers and Error Resolution - Applicable Only to Consumer Accounts" section of this Agreement.

eBanking Services
After you successfully register for eBanking, you will have access to your eligible Accounts, and you will be able to perform any actions which are available for your Accounts at the time you register (as displayed on the menu/dashboard within eBanking), such as viewing your balance information and transaction history, searching for transactions, sending us secure messages regarding your Accounts, conducting transfers between your eligible Accounts at the Bank; stopping payment on a Check, ordering Checks, managing your debit card, and importing certain Account information into financial accounting software such as Intuit Quicken. Other Services, such as Alerts, Bill Payment, External Transfer, and Pay People may be available as well. The Bank may, from time to time, introduce new eBanking Services, and the Bank may discontinue any eBanking Service at any time. When eBanking Services are added or modified, we will update the eBanking menu/dashboard. Certain additional terms and conditions apply to some of the Services described above. Please review this Agreement carefully to understand such additional terms and conditions.   

All instructions or requests provided to First Bank via eBanking will be deemed to be written instructions, with the same effect as written instructions provided to First Bank on paper and signed by you. For example, if you ask us to make periodic transfers or payments at regular intervals, that request will have the same effect as written instructions to us signed by you.

eBanking Availability
You may access your Account information through eBanking 24 hours a day, seven days a week, except for interruptions due to maintenance or matters beyond First Bank's reasonable control. In addition, access to the Services may be slower at times due to high Internet traffic or other factors beyond our control.  WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DELAYS OR DIFFICULTIES YOU MAY HAVE IN ACCESSING THE SERVICES OR CERTAIN FEATURES. WE DO NOT GUARANTEE THAT DATA SUBMITTED THROUGH THE INTERNET WILL BE SECURE FROM UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS OR WILL BE FREE OF ERRORS OR OMISSIONS DUE TO INTERNET TRANSMISSION.

Daily Processing Deadlines
eBanking transactions that occur before our daily cutoff times on a Business Day may appear immediately as a pending transaction and will generally post to the Account on the same Business Day. eBanking transactions that occur after our daily cutoff times on a Business Day or on a non-Business Day (Saturday, Sunday, Federal holidays and days that banks are legally closed) may appear immediately as a pending transaction and will generally post to the Account on the next Business Day. Transactions that have occurred and that are not yet reflected in your Account history may affect your Available Balance (as that term is defined in your Deposit Account Agreement). You should closely review your Deposit Account Agreement to understand how pending transactions may affect your Available Balance and how we generally post transactions.  

Transaction cutoff times are as follows:

Bill Payment 3:00 p.m. CT
External Transfers 3:00 p.m. CT
Internal Transfers 10:00 p.m. CT
Pay People 3:00 p.m. CT
Mobile Deposit 8:00 p.m. CT









The above daily cutoff times are subject to change from time-to-time in our discretion. 

Our Right to Delay or Reject Transactions
Even though you may request a transaction, it may be delayed or First Bank may reject the transaction without liability, if: (1) the request is untimely, incomplete, inaccurate or ambiguous in any respect, (2) the requested transaction exceeds the sum of the Available Balance of the designated Account (including, when applicable, the unused credit limit on a Preferred Credit Loan Account and/or the Overdraft Privilege Limit associated with the Account; (3) the requested transaction is either not authenticated to First Bank’s sole satisfaction, or First Bank believes the request may not have been authorized by you; (4) a Payee, transferee, or its financial institution mishandles or delays handling funds properly sent by us for any reason; (5) your computer, Device, software, communication line, modem, or internet service provider (“ISP”) was not working properly, and you knew or should have known about the malfunction when you started the transaction; (6) your Account(s) is closed or restricted by us; (7) the transaction request involves funds subject to hold, dispute, restriction, or is subject to a legal process we believe restricts, delays, or prevents their withdrawal; (8) the requested transaction would cause First Bank to violate a law, regulation or government guideline or program; (9) the requested transaction is not in accordance with any other requirement stated in this Agreement, or is objectionable to First Bank for any other reason, in our sole discretion; (10) First Bank’s eBanking was not working properly and you knew about the breakdown when you started to submit the transaction; (11) circumstances beyond our reasonable control (such as fire, flood, mechanical or electrical failure) prevent completion of the transaction, despite reasonable precautions we have taken; or (12) First Bank reasonably believes completing such transaction would result in Bank’s exposure to liability or risk beyond that contemplated by this Agreement (including, without limitation, First Bank suspects the transaction may be fraudulent or involve unlawful activity) in which case First Bank may treat such requested transaction as though it had not been received. In the event a transaction is rejected by Bank, for any reason, it shall be your responsibility to resubmit the transaction.

Fees/Charges
Many of the eBanking Services are provided free of charge. Some Services requested through eBanking may require payment of a fee. Refer to the Schedule of Fees for your Consumer or Non-Consumer Account for a complete listing of standard fees. Fees will be charged to the Account for which the Service has been provided, unless otherwise stated. Fees and the Services to which they apply are subject to change from time to time at First Bank’s discretion.

Stop Payment on Checks
In eBanking, the self-service function of “Stop Checks” provides you with the ability to stop payment on certain Checks that you have written (or initiated in Bill Payment as a paper Check) or pre-authorized electronic drafts that are deducted from your Account. You agree to hold First Bank harmless for the amount of the stop payment as well as for all expenses and costs incurred by First Bank as a result of refusing payment of the Check or preauthorized electronic draft on which a stop payment order has been placed. You further agree to hold First Bank free of all liability should payment be made contrary to this request, if such payments occur through inadvertence or accident.

Initiating a Stop Payment Order
If your stop payment request is urgent, we recommend that you contact us via telephone at 1-800-760-BANK (2265) or in person at one of our branches.

The stop payment feature within eBanking may NOT be used to place a stop payment order on an electronic fund transfer. You may cancel a payment initiated in Bill Payment only if the payment has been scheduled, but has not been processed. Once a payment initiated in Bill Payment as an electronic payment has been debited from your Account, you cannot cancel or stop the payment. However, you may be able to use the stop payment feature within eBanking to place a stop payment order on a payment initiated in Bill Payment as a paper Check payment if you know the Check number.

For a stop payment order to be effective, we must receive the request in time to give us reasonable opportunity to act on it. To place a stop payment order via eBanking, the account number and Check number are required. To request a stop payment without this required information, contact us at 1-800-760-BANK (2265). Unless your request is complete and accurate, we may be unable to identify the item subject to your request and thus will not be able to process your request. The charge for each stop payment order will be the current charge for such service as set out in the applicable Schedule of Fees.

Timeframes for Stop Payment Orders
A stop payment order may be made and will be honored when made by the maker of the Check or any other Account owner who has withdrawal rights at least equal to the rights of the maker of the Check. A verbal stop payment order we receive via the telephone will be effective for 14 calendar days, and may not be extended unless a signed, written stop payment order is received. Stop payment orders placed using eBanking are considered signed, written stop payment orders. We reserve the right to require an actual, physically-signed written stop payment order at any time. Signed, written stop payment orders are effective for six months and may be renewed in writing for an additional six months only by one of the methods that follow:

  • Use “Messages” in eBanking to request that we extend the stop payment period for an additional six months. The request must include the Check number and the account number on which the Check was written.
  • Send us a letter requesting that we extend the stop payment period for an additional six months. The request must include the Check number and the account number on which the Check was written. The letter must be sent to:

First Bank Service Center
1 First Missouri Center
St. Louis, MO 63141


Canceling a Stop Payment Order
A stop payment order placed using eBanking may only be cancelled by one of the following methods:

  • Send us a notice using “Messages” in eBanking and include the account number on which the Check was written, the Check number, and the following, if known: Check amount, date Check written and Payee name.

  • Send us a letter including the account number on which the Check was written, the Check number, and the following, if known: Check amount, date Check written and Payee name. The letter should be sent to:

First Bank Service Center
1 First Missouri Center
St. Louis, MO 63141

  • Visit a First Bank branch.

You should print or save a copy of all documents and disclosures delivered electronically. You may request paper copies of documents and disclosures such as this Agreement, and additional fees may apply.

Account Alerts
An Account Alert (“Alert”) is a notification relating to specific activity in, or the status of, your Account, such as a notification that a transaction has occurred, or that your balance is under a specified amount. Alerts may vary based on the type of Account for which the Alert is requested. You may choose which Alerts you would like to receive, the Account(s) for which you’d like an Alert, and whether you would like to receive the Alert by SMS text, push notification, or email notification. You agree to notify us of any change to your contact information to ensure continued delivery of your Alerts (see the section of this Agreement titled “Notices and Communications Between You and First Bank”). Message and data rates may apply, and the Alert frequency will depend on the Alerts you select. 

Alerts will be sent at various times on any day that transactions or the Account status meeting your specified criteria occur. You understand and agree that Alerts may not be sent on a “real-time” basis and may be sent at the next scheduled delivery time after the specified transaction or Account status occurs. We reserve the right to change the frequency or timing of Alerts.

Alerts are for informational purposes only and are not intended to replace your Account statements or any other communications we may provide you regarding your Account. Some Alerts may be automatically suppressed if we receive notice that you have filed for bankruptcy or if you have otherwise instructed us to cease communication with you in relation to collection efforts on your Accounts.

You acknowledge and agree that your receipt of any Alert may be delayed or prevented by factor(s) outside of our control, including factors affecting your wireless service provider and coverage in your area.  We do not guarantee the delivery, timeliness or accuracy of the contents of each Alert.  The Alerts Service is subject to transmission limitations and service interruptions. You will promptly notify us if you are unable, for any reason, to receive text, or push alerts. You agree to indemnify, defend and hold us and our directors, officers, employees and agents and Service Providers free and harmless from any and all losses or damages, including attorneys' fees, lost profits, and indirect or special damages, including, but not limited to, to those relating to bank secrecy or financial privacy laws or regulations, that may arise, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, from: a non-delivery, delayed delivery, or the misdirected delivery of an Alert; inaccurate or incomplete content in an Alert; your reliance on or use of the information provided in an Alert for any purpose; or any third party, whether authorized or not, obtaining information regarding your account disclosed in the Alerts.

Internal Transfers
You may transfer funds between your Checking, Savings and Money Market Accounts you maintain with us. You may also transfer funds to a loan or credit Account you have with us using eBanking. You will be able to make funds transfers that are effective when you complete the transfer online, schedule future-dated transfers, and establish recurring transfers. The Available Balance of the Account from which funds are transferred (FROM Account) and the Available Balance of the Account to which funds are transferred (TO Account) will be updated as soon as the transfer is complete. If the transfer is made to a loan or credit Account, the principal balance of the loan or credit account will be updated as soon as the transfer is complete.  Transfers made to pay off a loan or credit Account in full may take longer to process. Generally, the maximum dollar limit on any transfer is equal to the Available Balance in your FROM Account and may also include the unused credit limit of a Preferred Credit Loan account associated with the Account (if applicable) and the Overdraft Privilege Limit associated with the Account (if applicable), at the time the transfer is completed by us.

It is your responsibility to ensure that sufficient funds are available for a requested transfer at the time it is to occur and to confirm that transfers have been completed.

Loan Advances
If you are a consumer eBanking client, you may use eBanking to request a loan advance on certain qualified line of credit accounts. All transfers from a qualified line of credit account will be subject to the terms and conditions of that line of credit account. You will be charged interest on the outstanding loan balance based on the loan terms. A loan advance shall be credited to the account you select.

Electronic Periodic Statements (eStatements)
When you enroll in eBanking, you will have access to electronic versions of your Account statements (“eStatements”). Most Checking, Savings, Money Market, Certificate of Deposit (CD), and Loan Accounts are eligible for eStatements. Some exclusions may apply, and we reserve the right to determine which accounts are eligible for eStatements. Your periodic statements for all eligible Accounts will be viewable electronically in a format that you can view online, save or print at your convenience. Any legal notices that normally accompany your mailed statement may continue to be mailed under separate cover or may be delivered to you electronically. We may also make other account documents available to you in electronic form. We may add to, modify or delete any feature within eBanking related to eStatements at our sole discretion. Your eStatements and any other electronic documents will be available to you within eBanking regardless of whether you have chosen to receive paper Account statements. We will also provide paper statements to you through the U.S. Mail only if you have elected to receive paper copies of your Account statements. Please refer to the Schedule of Fees applicable to your Account for fees related to mailed paper statements.

Accessing Your eStatement
Your eStatements, legal notices or disclosures will be available to you in eBanking or Mobile Banking. Generally, your eStatement will be available online 1-3 calendar days after it is generated.

You will be able to accumulate up to 24 cycles of eStatements. eStatements prior to enrollment in eBanking may not be available online.  

You have the option to include images of your Checks on each periodic eStatement. Additional fees may apply for eStatements that include Check images. Check images are viewable within your eBanking transaction history for up to 90 calendar days.

If you close an eligible Account, you will no longer be able to view the Account eStatements in eBanking. Before closing your eligible Account, print or electronically save copies of your eStatements for your records. You may also request that a copy of your current or previous statement be mailed to you at your address of record for the eligible Account. Please refer to the Schedule of Fees for applicable charges.

Paperless Settings
Upon enrollment in eBanking, the statement settings applicable to each Account at the time of enrollment will appear on the Paperless Settings screen. If at any time, you would like to discontinue receiving a paper statement in the U.S. Mail or to start receiving a paper statement in the U.S. Mail, within eBanking, complete one of the following:

  1. Select the “Paperless Settings”’ menu/dashboard option.  For each Account, you may choose Paper On (Paper + eStatement) or you can choose to Go Paperless (which means that a paper statement will no longer be mailed in the U.S. Mail, and you will be opted in to eStatement Only)
  2. Contact us at 1-800-760-BANK (2265) to modify your Paperless Settings.
  3. Visit one of our branch locations during normal business hours to modify your Paperless Settings.

Fees may apply if you elect to receive a paper copy of your statement in the U.S. Mail. You have the option to include images of your Checks on each periodic statement. Additional fees may apply for statements that include Check images. To request adding Check images to your periodic statement or to remove Check images from your periodic statement, please contact First Bank Service Center at 1-800-760-BANK (2265) or visit one of our branch locations during normal business hours. Please refer to the Schedule of Fees for applicable charges.

Description of eStatement Alert
You will receive an Alert informing you when your eStatement is available for viewing within eBanking or Mobile Banking. An eStatement Alert will always be sent by email, and this type of Alert cannot be turned off; however, you may also elect to have the eStatement Alert sent via text message to a mobile phone. It is your responsibility and you agree to promptly notify us of any change in your primary email address and/or mobile phone number in order to ensure continued delivery of your Alerts. You may update your email or mobile number within the “Profile” menu area of eBanking. The Alerts options may be modified through the “Manage Alerts” menu item in eBanking. 

You understand and agree that Alerts will not be sent immediately as events occur. Alerts will be sent at scheduled delivery times after your statement cycle is complete. We reserve the right to change the frequency or timing of Alerts at any time. Alerts are not intended to replace your eStatements or any other communications we may provide to you regarding your Eligible accounts.

Discrepancies on eStatements
First Bank will include any transfers or payments you authorize through eBanking on your deposit Account statement. Each deposit Account will receive a periodic eStatement in accordance with the statement cycle code assigned to the account (in addition, a client may also elect to receive periodic paper Account statements through the U.S. Mail). You agree that the date your eStatement is delivered to you in eBanking is the date your periodic Account statement was delivered to you for all legal and regulatory purposes. Once you receive your eStatement, you should promptly notify First Bank of any discrepancies, including but not limited to, any errors or inaccuracies related to data transmitted by any eBanking Service. Unless provided otherwise by law, if you do not notify us of any errors within a reasonable period of time (not to exceed 14 calendar days), after we send or make available to you your eStatement, you cannot assert the unauthorized signature or alteration defenses against us even if we are unable to show a loss due to your failure. Also, you cannot assert any unauthorized signatures or alterations by the same wrongdoer on items paid by us after the reasonable time mentioned above elapses and before we receive your notice. We lose these protections if we fail to exercise ordinary care in paying an item with an unauthorized signature or alteration. However, if you do not notify us of the problem within 60 calendar days of when we send or make available to you the eStatement, you absolutely forfeit any right(s) to assert a claim against us. You must report any other Account problem (e.g., erroneous statement or transaction, missing signature, unauthorized endorsement, etc.) within a 60-calendar day period or lose your right to assert a claim against us.

Changes to Contact Information
It is solely your responsibility to ensure that the contact information in your eBanking user profile is current and accurate. This includes, but is not limited to, name, address, phone numbers and email addresses. Changes to your email address and phone number can be made either by using eBanking or by contacting the First Bank Service Center at 1-800-760-BANK (2265). Our First Bank Service Center shall have a reasonable time to act on such changes. First Bank is not responsible for any payment processing errors or fees incurred if you do not provide accurate contact information. Changing your email address and phone numbers in eBanking also changes your records outside of eBanking. You must contact First Bank Service Center to change your mailing address:

Your Liability for Unauthorized Electronic Fund Transfers and Error Resolution - Applicable Only to Consumer Accounts
For consumer eBanking users and Consumer Accounts, please refer to your Deposit Account Agreement, under the sections entitled "Your Liability for Unauthorized Electronic Fund Transfers (Consumers Only)" and "In Case of Errors or Questions About Your Electronic Transfers (Consumers Only)". Requirements for consumers to report unauthorized electronic fund transfers are based on the delivery date of your eStatement in eBanking.

Changes to Agreement
We may, in our sole discretion, change eBanking, eBanking Services, and the terms, including fees, set forth in this Agreement at any time. For example, we may add, delete or amend terms or Services, add or change fees, or change or limit the types of Accounts accessible by eBanking. You will be notified of any such change as required by applicable law, either by mail, email or by messaging in eBanking. If this Agreement is changed, we may, but are not obligated to, require you to open and agree to the Agreement at your first login after the effective date of the changes. Further, we may, from time to time, revise or update eBanking and/or related materials, which may render all such prior versions obsolete. Consequently, we reserve the right to terminate this Agreement as to all such prior versions of eBanking and/or related materials and limit access to only eBanking’s more recent revisions and updates. You understand that by your continued use of eBanking after a change becomes effective, you have agreed to the change(s).

Service Providers
Certain Services may be offered through or with the assistance of one or more Service Providers. You agree that we have the right under this Agreement to delegate to Service Providers all of the rights and performance obligations that we have under this Agreement and that the Service Providers will be intended third party beneficiaries of this Agreement and will be entitled to all the rights and protections that this Agreement provides to us.

Electronic Mail (email) and Messaging
Although you may currently have email capabilities, it is important to remember that normal Internet email transmissions may not be secure. You agree to contact us electronically only through “Messages” within eBanking if your correspondence contains confidential information, such as an Account number or social security number. You also agree to receive communications regarding your Account electronically and will not attempt to circumvent receiving any messages. It is your responsibility to notify us immediately if your email address changes. You are deemed to have received any electronic messages at the time we send them to you.

Notices and Communications Between You and First Bank
Any notices to us, unless otherwise stated in this Agreement, may be required in writing and shall be deemed to have been given or made on the date of delivery, in the case of hand delivery, or five (5) business days after deposit in the U.S. Mail, postage prepaid and addressed as required in this Agreement. Notices sent through “Messages” in eBanking may be considered signed and written notices in certain situations.

If you (i) believe that any error has been made with respect to eBanking; (ii) dispute any transfer, payment, charge or other transaction involving eBanking; or (iii) believe any security problem exists (including the fact or possibility that any unauthorized person has access to your Access Controls, then you must promptly notify us by telephone by calling 1-800-760-BANK (2265) or sending us electronic mail through “Messages” in eBanking. Depending on the error, dispute, or security problem, we may ask you to confirm such communication by written notice or we may require other forms of written documentation. In some cases, we shall not be deemed to have received notice until we have been given written notice as provided herein and have had a reasonable opportunity to act, but telephonic notice or messaging through “Messages” in eBanking may enable us to act to prevent or limit loss to you that may otherwise occur.

Unless this Agreement provides otherwise, you can communicate with us in one of the following ways:

  • Messaging: Use the “Messages” feature in eBanking.
  • Telephone: Contact us by telephone at 1-800-760-BANK (2265).

YOU AGREE YOUR USE OF EBANKING, THE EBANKING SERVICES AND ALL INFORMATION AND CONTENT (INCLUDING THAT OF THIRD PARTIES AND SERVICE PROVIDERS) IS AT YOUR RISK AND IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS. WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND AS TO THE USE OF EBANKING AND THE EBANKING SERVICES WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT. WE MAKE NO WARRANTY THAT EBANKING OR THE EBANKING SERVICES (i) WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, (ii) WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, (iii) THE RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM EBANKING WILL BE ACCURATE OR RELIABLE, (iv) THAT TRANSMISSIONS WILL BE SECURE, (v) THE SERVERS THAT MAKE EBANKING AVAILABLE WILL BE AVAILABLE, ARE FREE OF VIRUSES, OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS, AND (vi) ANY ERRORS IN EBANKING OR TECHNOLOGY WILL BE CORRECTED.

Governing Law
This Agreement will be governed by the law of the state in which your account is located.  If you opened your account in person, it is deemed to be located in the state in which you opened it.  If you opened your account online or by telephone and you reside in a state in which we maintain a branch at that time (or reside within 50 miles of a branch), it is deemed to be located in the state in which the branch is located.  If you reside anywhere else, then your Account is deemed to be located in Missouri. 

Waiver of Jury Trial
WHERE PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE PARTIES HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION BROUGHT BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY AGREEMENT CONTEMPLATED TO BE EXECUTED IN CONJUNCTION HEREWITH, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS OR ACTIONS OF THE PARTIES. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE PARTIES ENTERING THIS AGREEMENT.

Dispute Resolution; Jurisdiction
You agree that any disputes between you and us or that relate to or arise from this Agreement or eBanking will be resolved exclusively in the State or Federal court in the County of St. Louis, Missouri. The parties agree that such court is the most convenient venue or forum for the resolution of such disputes and such court has jurisdiction over the respective parties.

Waiver of Class Action
If either party elects to arbitrate a claim, neither you nor we will have the right to participate in a class action, private attorney general action, or other representative action, either as a member or a representative, nor to act in the interest of the general public, nor to join or consolidate a claim with the claim of any other person, nor seek an award or remedy against or on behalf of anyone who is not a named party to the arbitration. If this Class Action Waiver is found to be legally unenforceable or limited for any reason with respect to a claim for which a party seeks class, private attorney general or representative relief, then this Agreement to arbitrate will be inapplicable with respect to that claim, and the claim will instead be handled through courts of competent jurisdiction or judicial reference, rather than by arbitration, and you and we agree this section will be read as if the provisions regarding arbitration were not present. The parties acknowledge that this Waiver of Class Action is material and essential to the arbitration of any claim and, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, is not severable from the Agreement to arbitrate claims.

Release
If you have a dispute with one or more users of eBanking or External Transfer, you release us and our Affiliates and Service Providers and the employees and contractors of each of these, from any and all claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature arising out of or in any way connected with such dispute. In addition, you waive and release any and all provisions, rights and benefits conferred either (i) by § 1542 of the California Civil Code, which reads: "Section 1542. General release; extent. A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor;" or (ii) by any law of any state or territory of the United States, or principle of common law, which is similar, comparable or equivalent to § 1542 of the California Civil Code.

Recording and Use of Communications
You and First Bank agree that all telephone conversations and data transmissions between you and First Bank or any of our Service Providers made in connection with this Agreement may be electronically recorded and retained by either party by use of any reasonable means and for any lawful purpose. All recordings, discs, magnetic tapes, security reports and related media and records used by First Bank for transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall remain the Bank's property.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO SPECIFIC SERVICES
The following terms and conditions regarding the eBanking Services are in addition to the General Terms and Conditions provided above.

BILL PAYMENT SERVICE
Description of Bill Payment Service (“Bill Payment” or “Bill Pay”)
Bill Payment allows you to make one-time or recurring payments to Payees from your Account using Bill Payment contained within eBanking. The following terms and conditions apply to your use of Bill Payment. This Agreement does not alter the liability or obligations that currently exist between you and your Payees. A Payee may be a person or entity to which you wish a payment to be directed or is the person or entity from which you receive electronic bills (eBills). 

Service Providers
You may be required to review and accept any Terms and Conditions provided by our Service Providers before scheduling a payment in Bill Payment. If you do not agree to these Terms and Conditions, you may choose not to use Bill Payment. 

Eligible Accounts
In order to use Bill Payment, you must have an established Checking or Money Market Account with First Bank. Other deposit Accounts, such as Savings, CD and IRA Accounts are not eligible for Bill Payment.

Payment Methods and Debit to Pay From Account
First Bank reserves the right to select the method by which to remit payment to your Payee. Payment methods may include, but may not be limited to, an electronic payment or a paper Check payment. If the payment method is an electronic payment, the payment amount will be debited from your Pay From Account on the Send Date. If the payment method is a paper Check, the payment amount will be debited from your Pay From Account when the paper Check is presented to First Bank for payment which is outside of our control.

Payment Scheduling
The earliest possible Est. Delivery Date for each Payee will be indicated in Bill Payment when you are scheduling a payment, and it is dependent on the payment method available for the Payee, an electronic payment or a paper Check payment. You must select an Est. Delivery Date that is no earlier than the earliest possible Est. Delivery Date. If your desired delivery date falls on a non-Business Day, you must select an Est. Delivery Date that is at least one Business Day before such date. Conversely, you may select a Send Date first, and the Est. Delivery Date will be indicated in Bill Payment based on the payment method available for the Payee.

For a Payee that has been established in Bill Pay, once you select an Est. Delivery Date, Bill Payment will provide the Send Date. If the Payee may receive an electronic payment, the Send Date will be one (1) Business Day before the Est. Delivery Date. If the Payee must receive a paper Check payment, the Send Date will be five (5) Business Days before the Est. Delivery Date.

You may schedule payments to recur in the same amount at regular intervals.

The cut-off time for Bill Payment is 3:00 p.m. CT on each Business Day. If the eBanking session during which you schedule a payment occurs after 3:00 p.m. CT on a Business Day or on a non-Business Day, the Payment Instruction will be considered received from you on the following Business Day.

New Payees
When you create a new Payee in Bill Payment, it may take up to two (2) Business Days to set up the Payee to receive payments. As a precaution, you should schedule a payment to a new Payee at least fourteen (14) Business Days before any payment Due Date, to allow Bill Payment time to set up the Payee and verify information about your account with the Payee.

Expedited Payments (“Quick Pay”)
Quick Pay payments are delivered faster than standard Check payments. All Payees may not qualify for Quick Pay payments. Qualifying Payees will be identified at the time the expedited payment is initiated. A Quick Pay payment represents a paper Check sent via a two (2) Business Day delivery. There is a fee associated with Quick Pay payments which will be disclosed at the time you initiate the payment. The Quick Pay payment will be processed immediately upon being scheduled and cannot be updated or cancelled.

Payment Authorization and Payment Remittance
By providing First Bank with the names and account information of Payees, you authorize First Bank to follow the Payment Instructions that it receives through Bill Payment. To process payments more efficiently and effectively, First Bank may edit or alter payment data or data formats to meet Payee requirements for proper credit.

When Bill Pay receives a Payment Instruction, you authorize Bill Payment to debit your Pay From Account and remit funds on your behalf so that the funds arrive as close as reasonably possible to the Est. Delivery Date designated by you. When any payment or other online Service generates items to be charged to your Pay From Account, you agree that Bill Payment may debit your Pay From Account without requiring your signature on the item and without prior notice to you.

You also authorize Bill Payment to credit your Pay From Account for payments returned to us by the United States Postal Service or Payee, or payments remitted to you on behalf of another user of Bill Payment.

Sufficient Available Balance
You are responsible for ensuring a sufficient Available Balance is in the Pay From Account when we withdraw the payment amount from your Account. If the requested electronic payment exceeds the sum of the Available Balance of the Pay From Account (plus Overdraft Protection Services, if applicable), you understand that First Bank may not act on your Payment Instructions, and the payment may not be sent to the Payee. If the requested paper Check payment exceeds the sum of the Available Balance of the Pay From Account (plus Overdraft Protection Services, if applicable) on the day it is presented to us for payment, the paper Check payment is subject to return, and the account may be subject to an NSF Return Item Fee (as disclosed on the Schedule of Fees).

An Overdraft Fee may be assessed to your Pay From Account if we overdraw it to pay a Bill Payment item. If we decline to overdraw your Pay From Account that participates in the Overdraft Privilege Service, you understand that First Bank will not act on your Payment Instructions. If you participate in one of our Overdraft Protection Services, the terms, conditions and fees associated with those Overdraft Protection Services also apply. 

If a payment is not made because of insufficient funds, it will be your responsibility to reschedule the payment. It is your responsibility to verify that payment has been made. First Bank will not be responsible for late fees, finance charges, penalties or contractual defaults assessed by a Payee. 

You agree to notify us promptly if you receive notice from a Payee that a payment you made using Bill Payment has not been completed or remains unpaid.

You agree to verify your Payee applies the payment issued through Bill Payment properly.

Overdraft Protection Services
For payments scheduled in Bill Payment, certain Overdraft Protection Services may include the unused credit limit on a Preferred Credit Loan Account linked to the Pay From Account and/or the Overdraft Privilege Limit associated with the Overdraft Privilege Service available on the Pay From Account. See the Deposit Account Agreement for full details of these Overdraft Protection Services and our Schedule of Fees for applicable fees.

Payment Cancellation Requests
You may cancel or edit any Scheduled Payment (including recurring payments) that has not yet been processed by following the directions within Bill Payment. There is no charge for canceling or editing a Scheduled Payment. Once Bill Payment has begun processing a payment, it cannot be cancelled or edited, therefore, a stop payment request must be submitted.

Stop Payment Orders
If you want to attempt to stop any payment initiated in Bill Payment that has already been processed, you should contact the First Bank Service Center at 1-800-760-BANK (2265) or you may use the stop payment feature within eBanking “Stop Checks”. First Bank requires a reasonable opportunity to act on any stop payment request after an electronic payment has been processed. First Bank's ability to process a stop payment request will depend on the payment method and whether or not the payment has cleared.  Although First Bank will make a reasonable effort to accommodate your request, First Bank will have no liability for failing to do so. First Bank may also require you to present your request in writing within fourteen (14) calendar days. The charge for each stop payment order will be the current charge for such service as set out in the applicable Schedule of Fees.

Prohibited Payments
Payments to Payees at addresses outside of the United States or its territories may not be made through Bill Payment. You will also not use Bill Payment for making any unlawful or prohibited payments.  See the section titled “No Unlawful or Prohibited Use” contained in this Agreement.

Exception Payments
Tax payments and court-ordered payments (“Exception Payments”) should not be scheduled through Bill Payment. If you choose to make such payments through Bill Payment, they will be made at your own risk. All research and resolution for any misapplied, misposted or misdirected payments of these types will be solely your responsibility. In no event shall First Bank be liable for any claims or damages resulting from your scheduling of these types of payments.

Electronic Billing (eBill)
The eBill feature enables you to receive certain bills electronically. It is solely your responsibility to contact your Payees directly if you do not receive your bills. It is your responsibility to keep your accounts with your Payees current. Each electronic Payee reserves the right to accept or deny your request to receive electronic bills. Additionally, the ability to receive a paper copy of your bill(s) is at the sole discretion of the Payee. If you elect to activate one of Bill Payment's eBill options, you also agree to the following:

Activation
Upon enrolling in eBill, First Bank may notify the Payee of your request to receive electronic billing information. The timing of your first eBill may vary from Payee to Payee and may take up to sixty (60) calendar days, depending on the billing cycle of each Payee. Payees with billing cycles less often than monthly may take longer.

Information Provided to the Payee
Bill Payment is unable to send any updates or changes in your personal information such as, but not limited to, name, address, phone numbers and email addresses, to any Payee. You must make such changes by contacting the Payee directly. You are also responsible for all usernames and passwords used to access the websites of your electronic Payees. You agree not to use someone else's information to gain unauthorized access to another person's bill. You authorize First Bank, at the request of the Payee, to provide the Payee your email address, service address, or other data specifically requested by the Payee at the time of activating the electronic bill for that Payee, for purposes of the Payee informing you about Bill Payment and/or bill information.

Authorization to Obtain Bill Data
Your activation of the eBill feature for a Payee shall be deemed to be your authorization for us to obtain bill data from the Payee on your behalf. Some Payees will ask you to provide us with your username and password for that Payee. By providing us with such information, you authorize us to use the information to obtain your bill data.

Notification
The timing of eBills may vary from Payee to Payee. First Bank will use reasonable efforts to present to you all of your eBills promptly. You must periodically log on to Bill Payment and check for new eBills. You are responsible for ensuring timely payment of all bills.

Cancellation of eBill
Each electronic Payee reserves the right to cancel its eBill presentment at any time. You may use Bill Payment to cancel eBill at any time. The time required to cancel eBill may vary from Payee to Payee. It may take up to sixty (60) calendar days, depending on the billing cycle of each Payee. Payees with billing cycles less often than monthly may take longer. First Bank will notify your electronic Payees of the change in status of your account, but it is solely your responsibility to make arrangements for an alternative form of bill delivery. First Bank will not be responsible for presenting any eBills that are already in process at the time of cancellation.

Non-Delivery of eBills
You agree to hold First Bank harmless should the Payee fail to deliver your eBill. You are responsible for ensuring timely payment of all bills. Copies of previous bills must be requested from the Payee directly.

Accuracy and Dispute of eBill Contents
First Bank is not responsible for the accuracy of the contents of your eBills. Any discrepancies or disputes regarding the accuracy of your eBill contents must be addressed with the Payee directly.

This Agreement does not alter your liability or obligations that currently exist between you and your Payees.

Closing Your Pay From Account
If you close the Pay From Account, First Bank reserves the right to cancel all payments to be made from that Account. It is your responsibility to delete payments scheduled from Accounts you are closing and reestablish payments with a new account you open.

Returned Payments
In using Bill Payment, you understand that Payees and/or the United States Postal Service may return payments to First Bank for various reasons such as, but not limited to: an invalid Payee address; an invalid Payee account number; the Payee’s inability to locate the account; or the Payee’s account being paid in full. First Bank, at its option, will either use reasonable efforts to research and correct a returned payment and return it to your Payee, or void the payment and credit your Pay From Account.

Bill Payment Fees and Additional Charges
We may impose a fee for the use of Bill Payment, and we may subsequently change any fee imposed from time to time, with prior notice to you. Please review the Schedule of Fees for any fees applicable to Bill Payment, as well as any fee that is displayed within eBanking before a transaction is completed. Any other fees associated with your deposit Accounts will continue to apply. You are responsible for any and all telephone access fees and/or Internet service fees that may be assessed by your telephone and/or Internet service provider.
For consumer Bill Payment Services, there may be a charge for certain transactions and other optional services, such as Quick Pay Payments. If you do not wish to pay the fee, you will be given the opportunity to cancel the requested transaction. These fees and any additional charges that may be incurred by you will be deducted from the Pay From Account.

Failed Transactions
In using Bill Payment, you are requesting First Bank to make payments for you from your Pay From Account. If we are unable to complete the transaction for any reason associated with your Pay From Account (for example, there are insufficient funds in your Pay From Account to cover the transaction), the transaction will not be completed. In some instances, you may receive a return or failed notice from First Bank.

Payee Limitation
First Bank reserves the right to refuse to pay any Payee to whom you may direct a payment. First Bank will notify you promptly if it decides to refuse to pay a Payee designated by you. However, if you attempt to make a prohibited payment or an Exception Payment under this Agreement, First Bank is not obligated to provide such a notice.

Bill Payment Limits
We may at our sole discretion impose limits on the amount of payments you may initiate in Bill Payment. 

Liability of First Bank
First Bank will use reasonable efforts to make all your payments through Bill Payment properly. However, First Bank shall incur no liability if First Bank is unable to complete any payments initiated by you because of the existence of any one or more of the following circumstances:

  1. You have not provided Bill Payment with the correct payment account information, or the correct name, address, phone number, or account information for the Payee;
  2. An Exception Payment is made; or
  3. The occurrence of any of the conditions described in “Our Right to Delay or Reject Transactions” in this Agreement.

If none of the foregoing exceptions are applicable and Bill Payment fails to comply with your Payment Instructions, First Bank's sole liability to you shall be to process the payment.

EXTERNAL TRANSFER SERVICE
Description of External Transfer Service (“External Transfer”)
Subject to any transfer limitations discussed in this Agreement or your Other Agreements with us, External Transfer enables you to transfer funds between a First Bank Account (“Account”) and accounts you own at other financial institutions.

Transfer Scheduling
Once you select a Send Date, the earliest possible Est. Delivery Date for each External Transfer will be indicated in External Transfer when you are scheduling a transfer. Conversely, once you select an Est. Delivery Date, External Transfer will provide the appropriate Send Date.

New External Accounts
You are responsible for enrolling and verifying your accounts with other financial institutions that you wish to use for External Transfers.

Any credit the Bank gives for an External Transfer to your Account is provisional until the Bank receives final payment for the amount of the External Transfer. We reserve the right to select the method in which to transfer funds on your behalf, and the method to return funds to you in the event that the External Account is closed or otherwise unavailable to us. These payment methods may include, but may not be limited to, an electronic payment or an electronic to Check payment.

An Overdraft Fee may be assessed to your Account if we overdraw it to complete a transfer to an External Account. If we decline to overdraw your Account that participates in the Overdraft Privilege Service, you understand that First Bank will not act on your Transfer Instructions. If you participate in one of our Overdraft Protection Services, the terms, conditions and fees associated with those Overdraft Protection Services also apply. 

If a transfer to an External Account is not made because of insufficient funds, it will be your responsibility to reschedule the transfer. It is your responsibility to verify that transfers to External Accounts have been made. 

Overdraft Protection Services

See the Deposit Account Agreement for full details of these Overdraft Protection Services and our Schedule of Fees for applicable fees.

Transfer Cancellation Requests and Refused Transfers

In Pay People, you may initiate the payment of funds from your Account to any person in the U.S. (a Recipient). Although the Automated Clearing House (ACH) Network is often used to execute payments for Pay People, other Payment Networks may be used to facilitate the execution and transmission of payments. All payments made through Pay People and are subject to the terms of this Agreement and applicable laws and regulations, in each case as in effect from time to time. The following terms and conditions apply to your use of Pay People.

Service Providers
You may be required to review and accept any Terms and Conditions provided by our Service Providers before scheduling a payment in Pay People. If you do not agree to these Terms and Conditions, you may choose not to use Pay People. 

Eligible Accounts

Once you select a Send Date, Pay People will generate a text message or email to the Recipient. From the text message or email, the Recipient must accept the payment within 10 calendar days.

You may schedule a one-time payment in Pay People or recurring payments by selecting a frequency interval.
The cut-off time for Pay People is 3:00 p.m. CT on each Business Day. If the eBanking session during which you schedule a payment occurs after 3:00 p.m. CT on a Business Day or on a non-Business Day, the Send Date may be on the following Business Day.

It is your responsibility to ensure the accuracy of any information that is entered into Pay People (including but not limited to the name, mobile number or email address for the Recipient to whom you are attempting to send a payment), and for informing us as soon as possible if you become aware that this information is inaccurate. We will make a reasonable effort to stop or recover a payment made to the wrong person once informed, but we do not guarantee such stoppage or recovery and will bear no responsibility or liability for damages resulting from incorrect information entered by you.

Payment Authorization and Payment Remittance
By providing us with names and mobile numbers or email addresses of people to whom you wish to direct payments, you authorize us to deliver payments to Recipients. You are responsible for ensuring the accuracy of any information you provide to us to process a payment. You will be responsible for any transaction that is processed based on your instructions even if you make an error inputting the information or are tricked or deceived by a third party to initiate the transaction.

When you initiate a payment in Pay People, you authorize us to debit your Account for the amount of any such payment, and to remit funds on your behalf. You also authorize us to credit your Account for the receipt of those payments returned to us from Recipients to whom you sent payment(s) and those payments that were cancelled and returned to you because the processing of the Payment Instruction could not be completed.

Initiation of a Payment, Payment Method and Debit to Account
When you initiate a one-time payment in Pay People to a Recipient, the text message or email to the Recipient will be initiated on the Send Date displayed in Pay People. Notification of the payment is initiated to a Recipient by providing all the required information about the Recipient, including the person’s email address or mobile number. Pay People may contact the Recipient and request that the Recipient (i) provide information so that we may validate the identity of the Recipient and then (ii) provide account information in order to complete the payment.

You understand and agree that when you initiate a payment from an Account using Pay People, the initiation of the payment will begin as early as the Business Day of such initiation. However, the payment funds may be transferred into the Recipient's account no earlier than the next Business Day after you initiated the payment in Pay People. In addition, the deposit of the payment of funds into the Recipient's account may be delayed if the Recipient has not accepted the payment and/or provided Pay People with certain required information such as his or her account information. eBanking may contain additional information regarding the delivery of a payment to a Recipient’s account.

You further acknowledge and agree that our receipt of money to be transmitted to a Recipient shall not be deemed to have occurred and our obligation to complete a payment initiated in Pay People shall not begin until such time as the Recipient provides us with (or we otherwise obtain) all required information necessary to process the related payment in accordance with this Agreement. Any cancellation of a payment prior to the Recipient providing us with such information shall be subject to the provisions of the “Payment Cancellation, Stop Payment Requests and Refused Payments” section below.

For a payment initiated in Pay People for the payment of funds from your Account to a Recipient, the amount of the payment will be debited from your Account on the Business Day that the Recipient has accepted the payment. We reserve the right to select the method in which to remit funds on your behalf, and the method to return funds to you in the event that your Account is closed or otherwise unavailable to us. These payment methods may include, but may not be limited to, an electronic or paper Check payment. Limits on payments using Pay People may not be disclosed.

Sufficient Available Balance
You are responsible for ensuring a sufficient Available Balance is in the Account when we withdraw the payment amount from your Account. If the requested payment amount exceeds the sum of the Available Balance of the Account (plus Overdraft Protection Services, if applicable), you understand that First Bank may not act on your Pay People payment request, and the payment may not be sent to the Recipient.

An Overdraft Fee may be assessed to your Account if we overdraw it to complete a payment initiated in Pay People. If we decline to overdraw your Account that participates in the Overdraft Privilege Service, you understand that First Bank will not act on your Pay People payment request. If you participate in one of our Overdraft Protection Services, the terms, conditions and fees associated with those Overdraft Protection Services also apply. 

If a payment to a Recipient is not made because of insufficient funds, it will be your responsibility to reschedule the payment. It is your responsibility to verify that payments to Recipient have been made. 

Overdraft Protection Services
For payments scheduled in Pay People where funds are being sent from your Account to a Recipient, certain Overdraft Protection Services may include the unused credit limit on a Preferred Credit Loan Account linked to the Account and/or the Overdraft Privilege Limit associated with the Overdraft Privilege Service available on the Account. See the Deposit Account Agreement for full details of these Overdraft Protection Services and our Schedule of Fees for applicable fees.

Payment Cancellation, Stop Payment Requests and Refused Payments
You may cancel the initiation of a payment in Pay People or stop a payment in Pay People at any time until the processing of the payment into the Recipient's account has begun. Our ability to stop a payment initiated in Pay People or recover funds associated with an unauthorized payment will depend on the manner in which the payment was initiated, and whether the payment to the Recipient's account has begun processing. If you initiate a payment in Pay People, and you desire to stop any payment that has already been processed, you must contact the First Bank Service Center as provided in this Agreement. Although we will make a reasonable effort to accommodate a stop payment request and to recover funds associated with an unauthorized payment, we will have no liability for failing to do so. We may also require you to present your request in writing within fourteen (14) calendar days. The charge for each stop payment order will be the current charge for such service as set out in the applicable Schedule of Fees.

Payments not claimed by a Recipient will be automatically cancelled ten (10) calendar days after the processing of the payment begins. When you initiate a payment in Pay People, the Recipient is not required to accept the payment. You agree that you will not hold us liable for any damages resulting from a Recipient's decision to accept or not to accept a payment initiated or attempted through Pay People. We will, to the extent permitted by law, make reasonable attempts to return any unclaimed, refused, refunded, prohibited, or denied payment to your Account or use other reasonable efforts to return such payment to you as permitted by law.

Failed Payments
In using Pay People, you are requesting First Bank to attempt to make payments for you from your Account. If we are unable to complete the payment for any reason associated with your Account; (for example, there are insufficient funds in your Account), the payment may not be completed. In some instances, you may receive a return notice from us. In each such case, you agree that if we are unable to complete the payment for any reason associated with your Account (for example, there are insufficient funds in your Account to cover the payment), the payment will not be completed.

Refused Payments
We reserve the right to refuse to pay any Recipient. We will attempt to notify you promptly if we decide to refuse to pay a Recipient designated by you. This notification is not required if you attempt to make a prohibited payment under this Agreement.

Returned Payments
In using Pay People, you understand that Recipients may reject payments or otherwise return payments. We will use reasonable efforts to complete payments initiated through Pay People.

Acceptable Use
You agree that you are independently responsible for complying with all applicable laws in all of your activities related to your use of Pay People, regardless of the purpose of the use, and for all communications you send through Pay People. We and our Service Providers have the right but not the obligation to monitor and remove communications content that we find in our sole discretion to be objectionable in any way. In addition, you are prohibited from using Pay People for communications or activities that: (a) violate any law, statute, ordinance or regulation; (b) promote hate, violence, racial intolerance, or the financial exploitation of a crime; (c) defame, abuse, harass or threaten others; (d) include any language or images that are bigoted, hateful, racially offensive, vulgar, obscene, indecent or discourteous; (e) infringe or violate any copyright, trademark, right of publicity or privacy or any other proprietary right under the laws of any jurisdiction; (f) impose an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on our infrastructure; (g) facilitate any viruses, trojan horses, worms or other computer programming routines that may damage, detrimentally interfere with, surreptitiously intercept or expropriate any system, data or information; (h) constitute use of any robot, spider, other automatic device, or manual process to monitor or copy Pay People or the portion of eBanking through which Pay People is offered without our prior written permission; (i) constitute use of any device, software or routine to bypass technology protecting eBanking or Pay People, or interfere or attempt to interfere, with eBanking or Pay People; or (j) may cause us or our Service Providers to lose any of the services from our internet service providers, payment processors, or other vendors. We encourage you to provide notice to us by the methods described in this Agreement of any violations of this section or this Agreement generally. In no event shall we or our Service Providers be liable for any claims or damages resulting from or related to your violation of the acceptable uses of Pay People or this Agreement. We and our Service Providers reserve the right to monitor and remove any comments you post or submit through Pay People. You are responsible for adding Recipients that you wish to pay using Pay People. The Bank cannot guarantee the transfer or return of funds if another financial institution does not respond in a timely manner. We may make any payment through any payment system or Automated Clearing House processor selected by us. You agree that payments made through any Automated Clearing House processor are subject to the National Automated Clearing House Association rules.

Prohibited Payments
You will not use Pay People for making any unlawful or prohibited payments. In addition to the prohibited uses contained in the section titled “No Unlawful or Prohibited Use” contained in this Agreement, the following types of payments are prohibited through Pay People, and we have the right but not the obligation to monitor for, block and/or reverse such payments:

In no event shall we or our Service Providers be liable for any claims or damages resulting from your scheduling of prohibited payments. We have no obligation to research or resolve any claim resulting from a prohibited payment. All research and resolution for any misapplied, misposted, or misdirected prohibited payments will be your sole responsibility and not ours.

Receipts and Transaction History
You may view your Pay People transaction history by logging into Pay People and looking at your transaction history. You agree to review your transactions by this method in addition to receiving and reviewing periodic statements regarding your Account.

Privacy of Others
If you receive information about another person through Pay People, you agree to keep the information confidential and only use it in connection with Pay People.

Mobile Phone Users
Your phone service provider is not the provider of Pay People. Users of Pay People may receive text messages relating to the payment initiated in Pay People and other notices from time to time if a mobile number is provided. You acknowledge that you are responsible for confirming with any Recipient that the Recipient consents to receive a text message related to the payment initiated in Pay People. Data and messaging charges from your telecommunications provider may apply, and you are responsible for any such charges. In the event your enrolled Device is lost or stolen, you agree to update your enrollment information and make the appropriate changes to disable the use of such Device. You understand that there are risks associated with using a Device, and that in the event of theft or loss, your confidential information could be compromised.

Pay People Limits
We may at our sole discretion impose limits on the amount of money you can send through Pay People, including the aggregate dollar amount of transaction over a designated time frame. Your limits may be adjusted from time-to-time at our sole discretion.

Taxes
It is your responsibility to determine what, if any, taxes apply to the transactions you make or receive, and it is your responsibility to collect, report and remit the correct tax to the appropriate tax authority. We are not responsible for determining whether taxes apply to your transaction, or for collecting, reporting or remitting any taxes arising from any transaction.

Service Fees and Additional Charges
We may impose a fee for the use of Pay People, and to subsequently change any fee imposed from time to time, with prior notice to you.

Notification of Errors or Questions
In case of errors or questions about your payments, you should as soon as possible contact us as set forth in the “Notices and Communications Between You and First Bank” section above.

Liability of First Bank
First Bank will use reasonable efforts to complete your payments through Pay People properly. However, we shall incur no liability if we are unable to complete any payment because of the existence of any one or more of the following circumstances:

  1. The payment is refused as a prohibited payment described above or is refused as described in “Payment Cancellation, Stop Payment Requests and Refused Payments” Section;
  2. You have not provided us with the correct information, including but not limited to the correct name or email address or mobile number of the Recipient to whom you are initiating a Payment Instruction; and/or
  3. The occurrence of any of the conditions described in “Our Right to Delay or Reject Transactions” in this Agreement.

If none of the foregoing exceptions are applicable and Pay People fails to comply with the payment you initiated in Pay People, First Bank's sole liability to you shall be to process the payment.

By using Mobile Banking, you agree to all of the Mobile Banking specific terms and conditions set forth herein. Mobile Banking is offered as a supplemental service to the Bank’s eBanking Services and is not intended to replace access to eBanking from your personal computer, laptop, or other methods you use for managing your Accounts and services with us. Mobile Banking allows you to access your Account information, transfer funds between your Accounts at First Bank and between accounts held at First Bank and other financial institutions using External Transfers, use Bill Payment, send payments to individuals using Pay People, set Alerts relating to your Accounts, and similar activities.

Additional Mobile Banking Services
We may offer additional Mobile Banking Service features in the future, which will be governed by this Agreement. By using Mobile Banking, you agree to the most recent version of this Agreement. 

Limitations; Agreements with Third Parties
We reserve the right to limit the types and number of Accounts or Devices and the right to refuse to process any transaction you request through Mobile Banking. We also reserve the right to modify the scope of, and Services offered, through Mobile Banking, at any time and from time to time.

You agree that when you use Mobile Banking, you remain subject to the terms and conditions of your existing agreements with service providers that are unaffiliated with the Bank, including, but not limited to, your wireless carrier, and that this Agreement does not amend or supersede any of those agreements. You understand that those agreements may provide for fees, limitations, and restrictions which might affect your use of Mobile Banking, for example, data usage or short message service (“SMS”) text messaging charges imposed on you by your wireless carrier for use of or interaction with Mobile Banking, and you agree that you are solely responsible for all such fees, limitations, and restrictions. You understand and agree that your wireless carrier is solely responsible for the quality and availability of its products and services. Accordingly, you agree to resolve any such problems with your wireless carrier directly, without involving us.

We do not guarantee the functionality of Mobile Banking on all wireless devices or networks; however, generally, Mobile Banking should be compatible with any web-enabled Device, regardless of make, model, or wireless carrier. Mobile Banking is not supported on iPads or tablets at this time. We cannot guarantee, and we are not responsible for the availability of, data services provided by your wireless carrier, and have no liability relating to the unavailability of data services by your wireless carrier as a result of issues such as data outages at your wireless carrier, or you being out of range for data services provided by your wireless carrier.

You are responsible for reviewing and complying with the instructions provided on our website or otherwise for the proper use of Mobile Banking. You agree to accept responsibility for learning how to use Mobile Banking in accordance with the online instructions and agree that you will contact us directly if you have any problems with or questions regarding Mobile Banking. We may modify Mobile Banking from time to time at our sole discretion. In the event of any modifications, you are responsible for making sure you understand how to use Mobile Banking as modified and your continued use indicates your consent to the changes. In addition, you accept sole responsibility for making sure that you know how to properly use your Device and we will not be liable to you for any losses caused by your failure to properly use Mobile Banking or your Device. You must maintain appropriate virus and spyware protection on your Devices.  The Bank will not be responsible for any errors or failures caused by any malfunction of your Devices.  We are not responsible for unauthorized transactions brought about by viruses, spyware, malware, worms, or related electronic problems/infections. The Bank cannot control the availability or speed of the Services on your Device, and therefore, is not liable for non-transmission or slow transmission of information or instructions. The Bank reserves the right, without notice and at its sole discretion, to suspend or terminate your ability to access or use Mobile Banking, and to block or prevent future access to and use of Mobile Banking for any reason. The Bank may, in its sole discretion, terminate, change, modify, suspend, make improvements to or discontinue any or all aspects of Mobile Banking, temporarily or permanently, at any time with or without notice to you. You agree that the Bank shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any such modification, suspension or discontinuance. Mobile Banking is owned and operated by the Bank or its affiliates, licensors and/or third-party Service Providers (the “Bank Parties”) and unless otherwise indicated, all designs, text, images, videos, graphics, software and other content and materials appearing in Mobile Banking (collectively, “Content”) are the property of the Bank or the Bank Parties, and protected, without limitation, by U.S. and foreign copyright, trademark and other intellectual property laws.  All trademarks, service marks, trade names, logos and other indicia of origin (collectively, "Marks") appearing in Mobile Banking are the property of the Bank or the Bank Parties. You may not make any use of any Content or Marks without the prior written consent of the Bank. No Content from the Bank Website or mobile application may be copied, reproduced, republished, uploaded, posted, transmitted, or distributed in any way.

You agree to provide source information in any SMS text messages you send to us, such as your mobile telephone number in the “from” field in a text message, so that we can identify who the SMS text message is from. 

Account Ownership/Correct Information
You represent that you are the legal owner of the Account(s) and other financial information that may be accessed using Mobile Banking. You represent that all information you provide to us in connection with Mobile Banking is accurate, current, and complete, and that you have the right to provide such information to us for the purpose of using Mobile Banking. You agree not to misrepresent your identity or Account information. You represent and warrant that you are the owner, or an authorized user, of the Device you will use to access Mobile Banking.

Security
In addition to the other terms and conditions in this Agreement, you agree to take every precaution to ensure the safety, security, and integrity of your Account and transactions when using Mobile Banking. You agree not to leave your Device unattended while logged into Mobile Banking and to log off immediately at the completion of each Mobile Banking session. You agree not to provide any of your Mobile Banking access information (e.g., Username and Password, Biometric ID, Biometric Data or Mobile Passcode) to any unauthorized person. If you permit other persons to use your Device, Mobile Banking access information, or any other means to access Mobile Banking, including through storage or use of their biometric information in your Device, you will be held responsible for any transactions they authorize, and we will not be liable for any damages resulting to you.
We make no representations that Mobile Banking will be available for use in locations outside of the United States. Accessing Mobile Banking from locations outside the United States is at your own risk.

Discrepancies
We assume no responsibility for the accuracy or timeliness of information provided by, or retrieved from, other institutions or other parties to your transactions. You agree to provide us with prior written notice of any changes in your designated Accounts with Payees and other institutions that would affect our right or ability to process transfers or payments made through Mobile Banking. If a transfer or payment instruction identifies a Payee or a financial institution by name and account or other identifying number, we and other financial institutions may process the transaction solely on the basis of the number, even if it identifies a different person or entity from what is indicated in the instruction. We have no obligation to identify and investigate discrepancies between names and numbers.

Mobile Banking Transfers
You may use Mobile Banking to transfer funds between your eligible Accounts using Internal Transfer, External Transfer and Pay People. The sections of this Agreement regarding Internal Transfer, External Transfer and Pay People govern your use of those Services through Mobile Banking.
 
Privacy
Protecting the privacy of your information is important to us. All information gathered from or about you in connection with your use of Mobile Banking is subject to our Online Privacy Statement and Privacy Notice, which are available on our website, within eBanking, within Mobile Banking, or by contacting the First Bank Service Center. We will disclose information about your Account or transactions you make: 1) When it is necessary to complete transactions or activate additional services; 2) on order to verify the existence and condition of your Account for a third party, such as a consumer reporting agency, merchant, Biller, or holder of a Check issued through an eBanking payment service; 3) for fraud prevention and security purposes; 4) in order to comply with government agency or court orders; or 5) with your permission.

We also collect and share information, such as your device identifier, Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, mobile phone number, data files, message content, and similar information to enable us to provide Mobile Banking Services to you and for security and fraud prevention purposes. By using Mobile Banking, you consent to the collection and sharing of this information for security and fraud prevention purposes. 

Biometric Access and Privacy
You may elect to access Mobile Banking by using biometric authentication in connection with your Device’s biometric access feature.  Mobile Banking and eBanking do not have access to, control of, or store fingerprint, face print, or other biometric data (“Biometric Data”) used in Touch ID, Face ID, and similar authentication processes (“Biometric ID”). Biometric ID uses an application which prompts a Device to validate the user. The Device responds to the validation prompt by indicating whether or not the Biometric Data matches. All Biometric Data is captured by and stored in your Device’s operating system. You must enable your Device’s Face, Fingerprint, or other Biometric Data unlock option in order to use Biometric ID.  By enabling Biometric ID, you understand and agree that Biometric Data stored on your Device will be used to access your Accounts in Mobile Banking and to conduct transactions using Mobile Banking. Some Device operating systems may allow you to store multiple fingerprints, face prints, or other Biometric Data on your Device. If you have any other people’s fingerprints, face prints, or Biometric Data registered on your Device, they will be able to access your Accounts via Mobile Banking and initiate transactions. By enabling Biometric ID on a Device on which anyone else has registered their fingerprints, face prints, or other Biometric Data which may be used to access Mobile Banking, you are granting those persons authority to access your Account and you will be responsible for any transactions that they initiate. Additionally, if you have Face ID enabled and have family members who look like you, they may be able to sign into Mobile Banking using Face ID. You may be asked to log in to Mobile Banking using your Username and Password or a numerical passcode in the event Biometric ID does not function as expected. 

If you choose not to enable Biometric ID, you will log in using a Username and Password or a numerical passcode, which you will establish at your first login to Mobile Banking.  

Conduct
You agree that you will not use, facilitate or allow others to use Mobile Banking, or the content or information delivered through Mobile Banking in any way:

  • Which violates the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, as prohibited in the section of this Agreement titled “No Unlawful or Prohibited Use”);
  • To violate the rights of others;
  • To threaten, incite, promote, or actively encourage violence, terrorism, or other serious harm;
  • For any content or activity that promotes child sexual exploitation or abuse;
  • To violate or attempt to violate the security, integrity, or availability of any user, network, computer or communications system, software application, or network or computing device; or
  • To distribute, publish, send, or facilitate the sending of unsolicited mass email or other messages, promotions, advertising, solicitations, or “spam”.

We may investigate any suspected violation of this section and disable your access to Mobile Banking if any of the above activities occur.

Indemnification
In addition to the indemnification obligations provided in the Agreement, unless caused by our intentional misconduct or gross negligence, you agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless First Bank, its officers, directors, employees, consultants, agents, Service Providers, and licensors from any and all third party claims, liability, damages, expenses, and costs caused or arising from (1) a third party claim, dispute, action, or allegation of infringement, misuse or misappropriation based on information, data or files submitted by you through Mobile Banking; (2) your violation of any law or rights of a third party; or (3) your use, or use by a third party of Mobile Banking.

Termination of Mobile Banking
You may terminate Mobile Banking by uninstalling the First Bank On the Go application. We reserve the right to modify or discontinue Mobile Banking at any time, or certain features within Mobile Banking, without notice, except as required by law.

You agree to follow any and all procedures and instructions for use of Mobile Deposit as we may establish from time to time. Mobile Deposit is provided in our sole and absolute discretion.

Rules, Laws and Regulations
You agree to abide by and comply with all local, state, and federal rules, laws and regulations in connection with your use of Mobile Deposit. These include, but are not limited to, Regulation CC “Expedited Funds Availability Act”, Subparts C and D (Subpart D implements the Check Clearing for the 21st Century Act (“Check 21 Act”)), and the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA), all as amended from time to time.

Eligibility
We reserve the right to establish and revise eligibility requirements at any time without notice.

Transaction Limits; Funds Availability and Transaction Deadlines
Mobile Deposit may be used to deposit Checks into your Account(s), subject to the terms of this Agreement. Checks deposited through Mobile Deposit will be converted to Image Items for processing. Mobile Deposit is subject to transaction limitations, which may change from time to time without notice. Such limits may include, but are not limited to, limits on the number and amount per Check, limits on the total amount of Checks deposited and/or limits on the number of Checks deposited per day or over a period of time. The Bank may, at any time, adjust these limits at is sole discretion and the limits may vary by client, product or other considerations.  For security purposes, these limits may not be disclosed to you in advance. However, you will always be notified if a specific item may be deposited at the time that you attempt to photograph and remotely deposit the item.  We may reject any deposit in excess of our established limits.  If we permit you to make a deposit in excess of our established limits, such deposit will still be subject to this Agreement, and we will not be obligated to allow additional deposits in excess of such limits.   

Mobile Deposit will allow you to confirm that your Check has been photographed and submitted to the Bank.  You will receive a notice in Mobile Banking if your deposit was rejected for any reason. Once you have submitted an image of a Check, you will receive a "Deposit Confirmation" noting that you deposit has been submitted for processing. 

YOU SHOULD MONITOR YOUR ACCOUNT'S "AVAILABLE BALANCE" TO DETERMINE WHEN THE CHECK HAS BEEN PROCESSED AND THE FUNDS ARE AVAILABLE IN YOUR ACCOUNT. IT MAY TAKE A NUMBER OF DAYS BEFORE THE FUNDS ARE AVAILABLE. YOU SHOULD CONFIRM THAT THE FUNDS ARE SHOWN IN YOUR AVAILABLE BALANCE BEFORE YOU PLAN TO ACCESS THE FUNDS. 

Image Item deposits initiated through Mobile Deposit by 8:00 p.m. CT on a Business Day are posted to your Account the same day. If we receive an Image Item from you after 8:00 p.m. CT, or on a day that is not a Business Day, the Image Item will be treated as having been received by us on the next Business Day. You understand that Image Items transmitted through Mobile Deposit and the funds from deposits through Mobile Deposit are not subject to the funds availability requirements of Regulation CC, 12 C.F.R. pt. 229. Funds deposited using Mobile Deposit will generally be made available within two (2) Business Days after the day of deposit; however, in some cases we may delay the availability of funds up to four (4) Business Days, so that they are available on the fifth Business Day after the day of deposit. We may delay the availability of your funds at our discretion if we deem it appropriate in accordance with our policies and procedures.  Any credit to your Account is provisional and remains subject to final payment of the Check deposited. You remain liable to the Bank for any returns, dishonor, errors, inaccuracies, breach of warranties and any other loss sustained by, or claim made against the Bank with respect to Checks deposited.

Equipment and Software Requirements
To use Mobile Deposit, you must have a Device compatible with Mobile Banking and access to telecommunication services necessary for Mobile Deposit. Mobile Banking application upgrades may be required from time-to-time for continued use of Mobile Deposit.

You agree that you will not modify, change, alter, translate, create derivative works from, reverse engineer, disassemble or decompile the Mobile Deposit application or services, copy or reproduce all or any part of the Mobile Deposit application or Mobile Deposit services or interfere, or attempt to interfere, with Mobile Deposit application or services. We and our technology partners, retain all rights, title and interests in and to Mobile Deposit services, applications and software made available to you.

Equipment or eBanking Services or System Failure
In the event of an eBanking failure or Mobile Deposit unavailability, you agree that, in order to deposit your Checks, you must use an alternate means of deposit, such as depositing the Checks at a First Bank branch, ATM, or ITM. However, if the Checks were photographed prior to the eBanking failure or Mobile Deposit unavailability, you must obtain approval from the branch before using an alternate means of depositing the Checks.

Security
You understand the importance of your role in preventing misuse of your Accounts and you agree to examine your eStatement for each of your Accounts as soon as you receive it in eBanking and notify us of any errors, in accordance with this Agreement and the Deposit Account Agreement. You should review each of the security-related provisions of this Agreement carefully. If you are unable to complete your deposit promptly, you will ensure that your Device remains securely in your possession until the deposit has been completed.

Prohibited Use of Mobile Deposit
You agree not to attempt to circumvent the security features of Mobile Deposit or make or attempt to make any improper or unauthorized deposit to or transfer of funds from Accounts via Mobile Deposit. You agree that you are prohibited from engaging in conduct that would violate the proprietary rights of the owner(s) of Mobile Deposit as well as accessing or using Mobile Deposit in any other unauthorized manner.

You are prohibited from using Mobile Deposit for any activity which violates the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, as prohibited in the section of this Agreement titled “No Unlawful or Prohibited Use”).

Deposit of Original Checks
You agree that you will not deposit the original Check, a duplicate Check image, or any copy of the original Check or Check image with us unless we instruct you to do so, or under any circumstances with any other financial institution. The risk of loss associated with the inclusion of a physical Check in the Check collection process or with a lost, destroyed, stolen or misplaced Check shall be yours alone.

Check Retention Period
You shall ensure that the original Checks are not accessed by unauthorized persons at any time. You agree that you will preserve the originals of all Checks processed through Mobile Deposit for fifteen (15) calendar days after the day of deposit (“Retention Period”). During the Retention Period, you agree to promptly provide the original Check to us upon request. You are responsible if an original Check is misused for any reason and its full destruction. You are responsible for the safekeeping of all original Checks. The risk of loss due to the unavailability of the original or copy of a Check for any reason, during the Retention Period, shall be yours alone. You will notify us immediately by telephone with written confirmation if you learn of any loss or theft of original Checks.

Destruction of Original Checks
After the required Retention Period has expired, you agree to destroy and dispose of the original Checks with a high degree of care, including selecting and implementing appropriate destruction and disposal procedures, so that the original Checks are no longer readable and incapable of further transmission, deposit, or presentment (e.g., through the use of adequate shredding equipment).

The Checks described in subsections a) – x) above, are each a “Prohibited Check” and, collectively, “Prohibited Checks.” If we process any of the Prohibited Checks described above, we shall not be obligated to process additional Prohibited Checks and we may stop doing so without cause or prior notice. We may in our sole discretion, and without liability to you, refuse any Check for any or no reason, or elect to take the Check on a collection basis only. We reserve the right to charge back to your Account, at any time, any item that we subsequently determine was an ineligible item. We are not liable for any loss, costs, or fees you may incur as a result of our chargeback of an ineligible item.  You acknowledge and agree that, while we normally provide notice of rejected deposits, we may reject any Check transmitted through Mobile Deposit in our sole discretion without notice to you, and we will not be liable for any such rejection or failure to notify you of such rejection. If we reject a Check for Mobile Deposit, you must physically deposit the original Check. If you deposit any Check that is ineligible, you agree to indemnify, defend, hold harmless, and reimburse the Bank and its directors, officers, employees, third party service providers, and agents free and harmless from any and all losses or damages, including attorneys’ fees, lost profits, and indirect or special damages, including, but not limited to, those relating to bank secrecy or financial privacy laws or regulations, that may arise, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part from and against, any and all losses, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) the Bank or our third party Service Providers may incur associated with any warranty, indemnity or other claim related thereto.  

Endorsement of Checks and Procedures
You agree to restrictively endorse any Check with the signature of all payees and “For First Bank Mobile Deposit Only”, your signature and your Account number (and business name if applicable) or as we instruct you.

Image Quality
Once an Image Item is captured, the System will display a copy of the captured Check for your review. Before transmission, you must inspect and verify the quality of the images associated with Image Items to ensure that the digitized images of the front and back of original Checks are legible for all posting and clearing purposes by First Bank. If all of the information on the front of the original Check is not clear on the copy, use the button to take another copy and verify the quality of the images on the second copy.

The image of a Check or item transmitted to us using Mobile Deposit must be legible and must comply with the requirements established from time to time by us, applicable law, or clearing house or association rule. Each Check must include the front and back of the Check, and the following information must be readable: amount, payee name, drawer signature, date, Check number, account number, routing and transfer number, MICR line, and any endorsement or other information written on the Check. You acknowledge and agree that even if the Bank does not identify a Check as ineligible, the Check may be returned to the Bank because, among other reasons, the Check or any Substitute Check created from the Check is deemed ineligible by the financial institution upon which it is drawn or any intermediate collecting financial institution. The Bank’s failure to identify a Check you transmit to us as ineligible shall not preclude or limit your obligations. You authorize us to process any Check you send to us or convert a Check to a Substitute Check, as defined by the Check 21 Act. We shall not be liable to you for failure to process or improperly processing any item for which you have not provided an accurate and legible image, and we reserve the right to reject any deposit.

Processing
The manner in which any Check transmitted through Mobile Deposit is cleared, presented for payment, and collected shall be within our sole discretion, subject to your Deposit Account Agreement.

Checks deposited using Mobile Deposit may be subject to our verification and final inspection process. We reserve the right, but are not required, to inspect or verify any Image Item to determine accuracy, legibility or quality of the Image Item or MICR line information associated with the Image Item, or for any other purpose. If we inspect an Image Item, we have the right to adjust your deposit after you have submitted it for processing. Adjustments may correct mistakes in the value of Image Items deposited, mistakes in encoding, or illegible Image Items. We may also correct or amend MICR line information associated with an Image Item to facilitate processing of the Image Item or a substitute Check created from that Image Item. We may refuse to process any non-conforming Image Items without notice, including without limitation any Image Items that are not Checks. You will receive an email notification when your deposit has been submitted and processed. The processed email will indicate if your deposit was approved, approved with an adjustment, or declined. If declined, the reason will be provided.

You will promptly provide any retained Check, or a sufficient copy of the front and back of the retained Check, to us as requested to aid in the clearing and collection process, to resolve claims by third parties with respect to any Check or Check image, or for our audit purposes. If you fail to do so, you agree to request a new Check for deposit from the Check’s originator. If you fail to provide the retained Check or a sufficient copy and cannot obtain a new Check from the originator, you agree that we are authorized to debit your account for the amount of the Check in question if we deem this action necessary. You will be solely responsible for any losses incurred as a result of the failure to promptly provide a retained Check or replacement Check in response to our request.
We reserve the right to process Image Items on a collection basis at any time.

Returned Deposits
Any credit for a deposit made to your Account by using Mobile Deposit is provisional. If a Check deposited through Mobile Deposit is dishonored, rejected, or otherwise returned as unpaid for any reason, including, but not limited to, issues relating to the quality of the image, we will reverse the provisional credit in your Account and you agree that an original Check will not be returned to you, but that we either return to you the Image Item, a paper reproduction of the original Check or a Substitute Check (as defined in Regulation CC and the Check 21 Act), in our sole discretion, or re-present it to the payor financial institution before returning it to you. You shall not attempt to deposit or otherwise negotiate an original Check without our prior approval if it has been charged back to you.

Fees
We may impose or change fees for Mobile Deposit at any time in our discretion. With regard to consumer Mobile Deposit fees, we will notify you at least 30 days before we impose or increase Mobile Deposit fees. Continued use of Mobile Deposit after we provide notice of the imposition of, or change in, fee amounts indicates your acceptance of the new fee amounts. Refer to our Schedule of Fees for any fees that may apply to Mobile Deposit. 

Limitations of Services
The Bank’s ability to provide Mobile Deposit is conditioned upon the availability of the wireless or computer services and systems used in transmitting your requests and the Bank’s response. The Bank shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage incurred due to the failure or interruption of Mobile Deposit, wireless or computer services, or systems, resulting from the act or omission of any third party or other causes not reasonably within the Bank’s control. We reserve the right to change, suspend, or discontinue Mobile Deposit, in whole or in part, or your use of Mobile Deposit, in whole or in part, immediately and at any time without prior notice to you.

You understand and agree that you are solely responsible for any Internet, cellular, data download or other charges that your Internet service provider or wireless carrier may impose for your access to the Internet or download of an application to use Mobile Deposit.

Cooperation with Investigations.
You agree to cooperate with us in the investigation of unusual transactions, poor quality transmissions, and resolution of customer claims, including by providing, upon request and without further cost to us, any originals or copies of Checks deposited through Mobile Deposit that are in your possession and your records relating to such Checks and transmissions.

Your Indemnity and Liability
In addition to the indemnity provisions otherwise contained in this Agreement, you agree to be liable to First Bank and its Service Providers, for any claims, losses, liabilities, damages, expenses or costs arising as a result of the negligent or intentional misuse of Mobile Deposit by you or your agents. You agree to indemnify First Bank, its parent company and its affiliates and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, damages, loss, liability, or expense (including attorney's fees and expenses) (“Losses and Liabilities”) resulting from, or arising out of: 1) any negligent or intentional act or omission by you in the performance of your obligations under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, (i) duplicate scanning of the same original Check, (ii) fraudulent or unauthorized use of your Device, Account number or Access Controls; 2) any breach in a representation, warranty, covenant, or obligation of yours contained in this Agreement; 3) the violation of any applicable law, statute, or regulation in the performance of your obligations under this Agreement; 4) our acting as a "reconverting bank" under the Check 21 Act through the creation of “substitute Checks” or purported substitute Checks using Check or an illegible Check; 5) any loss or expense caused by any person with the apparent authority to access Mobile Deposit; 6) our presenting to the paying bank an electronic item for payment; and 7) your failure to (i) securely maintain your Device or the original Checks, or (ii) properly and timely dispose of original Checks in accordance with this Agreement, in which event such Losses and Liabilities shall include without limitation consequential damage for Checks we do not receive or images that are dropped during transmission.

Suspension of Mobile Deposit
We may immediately suspend Mobile Deposit or the processing of any Check or corresponding Image Item without notice if you are no longer eligible for Mobile Deposit, if we have reason to believe that there has been a breach in the security of Mobile Deposit, fraud involving your Account(s) or Check(s), or if we have any uncertainty as to the authorization or accuracy of Image Items.

Termination of Mobile Deposit
You may cancel Mobile Deposit at any time. We reserve the right to terminate Mobile Deposit immediately and without notice (1) in the event of any improper use of Mobile Deposit, or (2) if all of your eligible Accounts have been closed. Any termination of this Agreement shall not affect any of the Bank's rights and your obligations with respect to Mobile Deposit utilized by you, or your payment obligations with respect to Mobile Deposit services performed by us, or any other obligations that survive termination of this Agreement. Termination of this Agreement will not affect or terminate the Other Agreements governing your Accounts with the Bank.
Upon termination we shall have the right to hold and use funds in any of your Accounts for such time as we reasonably determine to be necessary for us to be assured that no Image Item processed by us prior to termination may be returned, charged back, or otherwise become a source or cause for any loss, liability, cost or exposure to First Bank.
