** APY – Annual Percentage Yield. Minimum opening balance and minimum to earn dividends is $1,000 for all Certificates. Dividends accrue from date of deposit and are compounded and credited monthly based on the average daily balance. Withdrawal of dividends prior to maturity will reduce your earnings. Certificates that renew automatically will receive the rate in effect on the date of renewal. There is a 10-day grace period at maturity. Non-renewals do not earn dividends after maturity. You have agreed to leave the principal of this account on deposit for the full term stated on your Certificate deposit receipt. If all or part of the principal is withdrawn before the maturity date, the Credit Union may charge you a penalty. Withdrawals resulting in a balance less than the required minimum must be closed. Penalty amounts may exceed earnings. Fees may reduce earnings.
