YNB Mobile Deposit Service (“YNB Mobile Deposit Service” or “Service”)

A. Description of the YNB Mobile Deposit Service. The Service enables you to use a YNB Mobile Banking application and certain hardware (such as a smartphone or other mobile device) approved by us to (i) create electronic images of the front and back of certain Paper Items* and (ii) transmit those images and other information, including, without limitation, information captured from the magnetic ink character recognition (“MICR”) line, to us for review and processing in accordance with this Addendum. “Electronic Item” means the electronic image of each Paper Item and other information captured from the Paper Item. After we receive your transmission, we will review each Electronic Item. For each Electronic Item that we determine is eligible for processing as described below, we will:

1. create a substitute check that we will present directly or indirectly to the bank (a) on which the original Paper Item to which the Electronic Item relates is drawn, or (b) at or through which the Paper Item is payable (each, the “Paying Bank”);
2. include the Electronic Item in an electronic file for presentment directly or indirectly to the Paying Bank; or
3. present or post any Electronic Item for which we are the Paying Bank.

B. Qualification. In order to enroll in the Service, you must be designated as an authorized signer or owner of a YNB Account (the “Account”) that is eligible for this Service, and be approved by YNB.

C. Conditions to Provision of the Service. As conditions to Bank’s provision of the Service, you shall (a) maintain the Account in good standing, (b) subscribe to YNB Online Service, and (c) comply with such restrictions on the Service as we may communicate to you from time to time.

D. Fees. The Service is provided at no charge to you. We may, upon at least 30 days prior notice to you, to the extent required by applicable law, charge a fee for use of the Service. If you continue to use the Service after the fee becomes effective, you agree to pay the service fee that has been disclosed to you, as may be amended from time to time. Further, you will be required to designate an account at YNB from which fees for the Service will be debited (your “Billing Account”).
Any applicable fees for the Service may be changed by us at our discretion at any time upon at least 30 days prior notice to you, to the extent required by applicable law. If the Billing Account is closed, or if the Billing Account does not have sufficient available funds to cover the fees, you authorize us to charge any such fees to any other deposit account you maintain with us.
D.1. Hardware. In order to use the Service you must use the type of hardware that we designate. Any hardware that we provide to you free of charge will, at all times, remain the sole property of YNB. Upon termination of the Service, you must promptly return any hardware that we provided to you free of charge.

E. Creating and Transmitting Electronic Items to YNB. You shall use hardware approved by YNB, and the YNB Online Service to create electronic images of checks and other Paper Items that you wish to deposit to your Account by means of the Service, and to transmit your Electronic Items to us. The following items may not be deposited through the Service: international checks, remotely created checks (whether in paper form or electronically created), checks drawn against a line of credit, or cash. Except as noted in the preceding sentence, only checks, money orders, cashier’s checks, or traveler’s checks, drawn on or payable at or through a U.S. bank, can be transmitted through the Service. Additionally, only Items that are made payable to, and endorsed by, you may be transmitted through the Service.

F. Processing Your Electronic Item(s). If you transmit your Electronic Item(s) to YNB before the cut-off time we separately disclose to you (the “Cut-Off Time”) on any Business Day**, we shall review and process your Electronic Item(s) on that Business Day. If you transmit your Electronic Item(s) to us after the Cut-Off Time on any Business Day, we shall review and process your Electronic Item(s) on the next Business Day. Your Electronic Item(s) is deemed to have been received by the Bank when the Service generates a confirmation message.

G. Exception Items. Each Business Day on which we review and process your Electronic Item(s), we will use commercially reasonable efforts to review each Electronic Item and to reject any Electronic Item that we in our sole discretion determine to be ineligible for the Service (each, an “Exception Item”). “Exception Item” includes, without limitation, an Electronic Item that (a) is illegible or contains MICR data that is not machine-readable, (b) was previously processed as an Electronic Item, or (c) is drawn on banks located outside the United States and is not payable at or through a bank located within the United States. We will notify you of each Exception Item through the YNB Online Service, or other communication channels at our discretion. If you wish to attempt to deposit any Exception Item to your Account, you shall do so only by depositing the original Paper Item on which the Exception Item is based or as otherwise agreed between us. Even if we do not initially identify an Electronic Item as an Exception Item when we review and process the Electronic Item to which the Exception Item relates, the Electronic Item, substitute check, or the purported substitute check created by us from it may nevertheless be returned to us because, among other reasons, the Paying Bank determines that such item or check is illegible or missing an image. Our failure to identify an Exception Item shall not preclude or limit the obligation of you to YNB under Paragraph J.

H. Deposits to the Account. Subject to our right to identify and reject Exception Items, we shall be deemed to have accepted each Electronic Item that is not an Exception Item for deposit to the Account on the Business Day that we process the Electronic Item, provided its transmission to us is prior to the Cut-Off Time. In addition, an Electronic Item will be deemed to have been deposited at the office where the Account is maintained.

I. Security Procedures. Any individual authorized by you to access the Service (a “User”) shall do so by entering a user name and a password, or other unique identifier that may be required (collectively referred to herein as “Security Credentials”). No person employed by YNB shall have access to any Security Credentials you or your Users create. From time to time, we may require you to use additional security and authentication procedures, as specified in the OAA.

You will retain and store the original Paper Items in a secure and locked container that is only accessible by persons needing access to such Paper Items. During the Retention Period and upon our request, you agree to provide us with the original Paper Item(s). Once the Retention Period has expired, you will securely and irretrievably destroy original Paper Items from which you have previously created and submitted to us an Electronic Item.
