The Electronic Fund Transfer Act and Regulation E require institutions to provide certain information to customers regarding electronic fund transfers (EFTs). This disclosure applies to any EFT service you receive from us related to an account established primarily for personal, family or household purposes. Examples of EFT services include direct deposits to your account, automatic regular payments made from your account to a third party and one-time electronic payments from your account using information from your check to pay for purchases or to pay bills. This disclosure also applies to the use of your North State Bank ATM card (hereinafter referred to collectively as "ATM Card") or North State Bank Visa Debit card (hereinafter referred to collectively as "Debit Card") at automated teller machines (ATMs) and any networks described below.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS. The following provisions govern the use of EFT services through accounts held by North State Bank which are established primarily for personal, family or household purposes. If you use any EFT services provided, you agree to be bound by the applicable terms and conditions listed below. Please read this document carefully and retain it for future reference.

ATM SERVICES.

You may access your ATM Card or Debit Card through the following network(s): Visa, Star, Cirrus.

ATM FEES. When you use an ATM not owned by us, you may be charged a fee by the ATM operator or any network used, and you may be charged a fee for a balance inquiry even if you do not complete a fund transfer.

POINT OF SALE TRANSACTIONS. Listed below is the card you may use to purchase goods and services from merchants that have arranged to accept your card as a means of payment (these merchants are referred to as "Participating Merchants"). Some Participating Merchants may permit you to receive cash back as part of your purchase. Purchases made with your card, including any purchase where you receive cash, are referred to as "Point of Sale" transactions and will cause your "designated account" to be debited for the amount of the purchase. We have the right to return any check or other item drawn against your account to ensure there are funds available to pay for any Point of Sale transaction. We may, but do not have to, allow transactions which exceed your available account balance or, if applicable, your available overdraft protection. If we do, you agree to pay an amount equal to the overdrawn balance plus any overdraft fee.

The following card and the corresponding designated account(s) may be used for Point of Sale transactions:

North State Bank Visa Debit card: checking account.

Your ATM and Debit cards may also be used to obtain cash from your designated account(s) at participating financial institutions when so authorized under the terms of your Account Agreement.

AUTHORIZATION HOLDS. An authorization hold is a temporary hold that is placed on your account for certain debit card transactions. The amount of the temporary hold may be more than the actual amount of the transaction, so your available account balance will temporarily be reduced by the amount of the temporary hold. If the authorization hold or the processing of subsequent transactions causes your account to have non-sufficient funds to pay the transaction, your account may be subject to a non-sufficient fund fee or subject to our Overdraft policy, and if applicable, any overdraft protection plan.

CURRENCY CONVERSION - Visa®. When you use your card with the Visa® logo at a merchant that settles in currency other than US dollars, the charge will be converted into the US dollar amount. The currency conversion rate used to determine the transaction amount in US dollars is a rate selected by Visa® from a range of rates available in wholesale currency markets for the applicable central processing date, which rate may vary from the rate Visa® itself receives, or the government-mandated rate in effect for the applicable central processing date, in each instance, plus or minus any adjustment determined by the issuer. The conversion rate in effect on the processing date may differ from the rate in effect on the transaction date or the posting date.

NOTICE OF RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES

The use of any electronic fund transfer services described in this document creates certain rights and responsibilities regarding these services as described below.

RIGHT TO RECEIVE DOCUMENTATION OF YOUR TRANSFERS.

TRANSACTION RECEIPTS. Depending on the location of an ATM, you may not be given the option to receive a receipt if your transaction is $15.00 or less. Upon completing a transaction of more than $15.00, you will receive a printed receipt documenting the transaction (unless you choose not to get a paper receipt). These receipts (or the transaction number given in place of the paper receipt) should be retained to verify that a transaction was performed. A receipt will be provided for any transaction of more than $15.00 made with your ATM Card or Debit Card at a Participating Merchant. If the transaction is $15.00 or less, the Participating Merchant is not required to provide a receipt.

PERIODIC STATEMENTS. If your account is subject to receiving a monthly statement, all EFT transactions will be reported on it. If your account is subject to receiving a statement less frequently than monthly, then you will continue to receive your statement on that cycle, unless there are EFT transactions, in which case you will receive a monthly statement. In any case you will receive your statement at least quarterly.

PREAUTHORIZED DEPOSITS. If you have arranged to have direct deposits made to your account at least once every 60 days from the same person or company:

- you can call us at (877)807-9668 to find out whether or not the deposit has been made.

USING YOUR CARD AND PERSONAL IDENTIFICATION NUMBER ("PIN"). In order to assist us in maintaining the security of your account and the terminals, the A TM Card or Debit Card remains our property and may be revoked or canceled at any time without giving you prior notice. You agree not to use your ATM Card or Debit Card for a transaction that would cause your account balance to go below zero, or to access an account that is no longer available or lacks sufficient funds to complete the transaction, including any available line of credit. We will not be required to complete any such transaction, but if we do, we may, at our sole discretion, charge or credit the transaction to another account; you agree to pay us the amount of the improper withdrawal or transfer upon request.

Your ATM Card may only be used with your PIN. Certain transactions involving your Debit Card require use of your PIN. Your PIN is used to identify you as an authorized user. Because the PIN is used for identification purposes, you agree to notify North State Bank immediately if your ATM Card or Debit Card is lost or if the secrecy of your PIN is compromised. You also agree not to reveal your PIN to any person not authorized by you to use your A TM Card or Debit Card or to write your PIN on your A TM Card or Debit Card or on any other item kept with your ATM Card or Debit Card. We have the right to refuse a transaction on your account when your A TM Card or Debit Card or PIN has been reported lost or stolen or when we reasonably believe there is unusual activity on your account.

The security of your account depends upon your maintaining possession of your ATM Card or Debit Card and the secrecy of your PIN. You may change your PIN if you feel that the secrecy of your PIN has been compromised. You may change your PIN by calling 1.844.378.7550.

RIGHTS REGARDING PREAUTHORIZED TRANSFERS.

RIGHTS AND PROCEDURES TO STOP PAYMENTS. If you have instructed us to make regular preauthorized transfers out of your account, you may stop any of the payments. To stop a payment, call us at: (877)807-9668 or write to:
North State Bank
PO Box 18637
Raleigh, NC 27619

We must receive your call or written request at least three (3) business days prior to the scheduled payment. If you call, please have the following information ready: your account number, the date the transfer is to take place, to whom the transfer is being made and the amount of the scheduled transfer. If you call, we will require you to put your request in writing and deliver it to us within fourteen (14) days after you call.

NOTICE OF VARYING AMOUNTS. If you have arranged for automatic periodic payments to be deducted from your checking or savings account and these payments vary in amount, you will be notified by the person or company you are going to pay ten days prior to the payment date of the amount to be deducted. You may choose instead to get this notice only when the payment would differ by more than a certain amount from the previous payment, or when the amount would fall outside certain limits that you set.

OUR LIABILITY FOR FAILURE TO STOP PREAUTHORIZED TRANSFER PAYMENTS. If you order us to stop one of the payments and have provided us with the information we need at least three (3) business days prior to the scheduled transfer, and we do not stop the transfer, we will be liable for your losses or damages.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO NOTIFY US OF LOSS OR THEFT. If you believe your ATM Card or Debit Card or PIN or internet banking access code has been lost or stolen,

call us at: (877)807-9668 (Monday - Friday 9 a.m. EST to 11 p.m. EST; Weekends and Holidays 9 a.m. EST to 5 p.m. EST - excluding Thanksgiving and Christmas)
or
write to:
6200 Falls of Neuse Road, Suite 101
Raleigh, NC 27609

If you reach a recording when calling the number above, contact 888.297.3416 anytime (24 hours). You should also call the number or write to the address listed above if you believe a transfer has been made using the information from your check without your permission.

CONSUMER LIABILITY. Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your ATM Card or Debit Card or PIN or internet banking access code has been lost or stolen or if you believe that an electronic fund transfer has been made without your permission using information from your check. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. If you tell us within two (2) business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your ATM Card or Debit Card or PIN you can lose no more than fifty dollars ($50) if someone used your ATM Card or Debit Card or PIN without your permission. If you do NOT tell us within two (2) business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your A TM Card or Debit Card or PIN and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your ATM Card or Debit Card or PIN without your permission if you had given us notice, you can lose as much as five hundred dollars ($500.00). Also, if your statement shows transfers you did not make, including those made by card, code, or other means, tell us at once. If you do not tell us within sixty (60) days after the statement was transmitted to you, you may not receive back any money you lost after the sixty (60) days, and therefore, you could lose all the money in your account (plus your maximum overdraft line of credit, if applicable), if we can prove that we could have stopped someone from taking the money had you given us notice in time. If a good reason (such as a long trip or hospital stay) keeps you from giving the notice, we will extend the time periods.

CONSUMER LIABILITY FOR UNAUTHORIZED TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING NORTH STATE BANK VISA DEBIT CARD. The limitations on your liability for unauthorized transactions described above generally apply to all electronic fund transfers. However, different limitations apply to certain transactions involving your card with the Visa® logo. These limits apply to unauthorized transactions processed on the Visa® or Plus Network.

If you notify us about an unauthorized transaction involving your card with the Visa® logo and the unauthorized transaction took place on the Visa® or Plus Network, zero liability will be imposed on you for the unauthorized transaction. We may increase the limit of your liability for such unauthorized transactions if we reasonably determine, based on substantial evidence, that you were negligent or fraudulent in the handling of your account or your card with the Visa® logo. The zero liability provisions do not apply to PIN-based debit transactions not processed by the Visa® or Plus Network, including ATM transactions outside of the United States.

Your liability for unauthorized transactions with your card with the Visa® logo that involve PIN-based debit transactions not processed by the Visa® or Plus Network, including ATM transactions, are described under "Consumer Liability" above.

ILLEGAL USE OF NORTH STATE BANK VISA DEBIT CARD. You agree not to use your North State Bank Visa Debit card for any illegal transactions, including internet gambling and similar activities.

IN CASE OF ERRORS OR QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR TRANSACTIONS. In case of errors or questions about your electronic fund transfers,

call us at: (877)807-9668
or
write to:
6200 Falls of Neuse Road, Suite 101
Raleigh, NC 27609
or
email us at: customerservice@northstatebank.com

Notification should be made as soon as possible if you think your statement or receipt is wrong or if you need more information about a transaction listed on the statement or receipt. You must contact North State Bank no later than 60 days after we sent you the first statement on which the problem or error appears. You must be prepared to provide the following information:

Your name and account number.
A description of the error or transaction you are unsure about along with an explanation as to why you believe it is an error or why you need more information.
The dollar amount of the suspected error.

If you provide oral notice, you may be required to send in your complaint or question in writing within ten (10) business days. We will determine whether an error occurred within ten (10) business days (twenty (20) business days for new accounts) after we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to forty-five (45) days (ninety (90) days for new accounts and foreign initiated or Point of Sale transfers) to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your account within ten (10) business days (twenty (20) business days for new accounts) for the amount which you think is in error, so that you will have the use of the money during the time it takes to complete our investigation. If we ask you to put your complaint or question in writing and we do not receive it within ten (10) business days, we may not credit your account. The extended time periods for new accounts apply to all electronic fund transfers that occur within the first thirty (30) days after the first deposit to the account is made, including those for foreign initiated or Point of Sale transactions. Visa's® cardholder protection policy requires that we provide provisional credit for losses from unauthorized Visa® Check Card use within five (5) business days of notification of the loss.

We will tell you the results within three (3) business days after completing our investigation. If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation.

You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.

LIABILITY FOR FAILURE TO COMPLETE TRANSACTION. If we do not complete a transfer to or from your account on time or in the correct amount according to our agreement with you, we will be liable for your losses or damages as provided by law. However, there are some exceptions. We will NOT be liable, for instance:

If through no fault of ours, you do not have enough money in your account to make the transfer.
If the transfer would result in your exceeding the credit limit on your line of credit, if you have one.
If the electronic terminal was not working properly and you knew about the breakdown before you started the transfer.
If circumstances beyond our control (such as fire or flood, computer or machine breakdown, or failure or interruption of communications facilities) prevent the transfer, despite reasonable precautions we have taken.
lf we have terminated our Agreement with you.
When your ATM Card or Debit Card has been reported lost or stolen or we have reason to believe that something is wrong with a transaction.
lf we receive inaccurate or incomplete information needed to complete a transaction.
In the case of preauthorized transfers, we will not be liable where there is a breakdown of the system which would normally handle the transfer.
If the funds in the account are subject to legal action preventing a transfer to or from your account.
If the electronic terminal does not have enough cash to complete the transaction.

There may be other exceptions provided by applicable law.

AMENDING OR TERMINATING THE AGREEMENT. We may change or amend any of the terms and conditions of the Agreement and those portions of the applicable Fee Schedule which relate to EFT services, at any time upon at least 21 days written notice to you prior to the effective date of the change or amendment. Your failure to timely furnish notice as set forth in the written notice shall be deemed to be your acceptance of such change or amendment. If you do not agree to abide by a change or amendment, you must notify North State Bank of the fact prior to the effective date of the change or amendment and cancel this Agreement. North State Bank may cancel this Agreement at any time, without giving you prior notice. If you or North State Bank cancels this Agreement at any time, you shall surrender any card and you may no longer use any of North State Bank's EFT services other than automated clearing house transfer services.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR ATM TERMINAL USAGE. Please keep in mind the following basic safety tips whenever you use an ATM:

Have your ATM Card or Debit Card ready to use when you reach the ATM. Have all of your forms ready before you get to the machine. Keep some extra forms (envelopes) at home for this purpose.

If you are new to ATM usage, use machines close to or inside a financial institution until you become comfortable and can conduct your usage quickly.

If using an ATM in an isolated area, take someone else with you if possible. Have them watch from the car as you conduct your transaction.

Do not use ATMs at night unless the area and machine are well-lighted. If the lights are out, go to a different location.

If someone else is using the machine you want to use, stand back or stay in your car until the machine is free. Watch out for suspicious people lurking around ATMs, especially during the times that few people are around.

When using the machine, stand so you block anyone else's view from behind.

If anything suspicious occurs when you are using a machine, cancel what you are doing and leave immediately. If going to your car, lock your doors.

Do not stand at the ATM counting cash. Check that you received the right amount later in a secure place, and reconcile it to your receipt then.

Keep your receipts and verify transactions on your account statement. Report errors immediately. Do not leave receipts at an ATM location.

ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS

Your account is also governed by the terms and conditions of other applicable agreements between you and North State Bank.
