Notice of Customer Identification Policy
Important Information
To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering
activities, Federal law requires all financial
institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each
person who establishes an account, investment or
other business relationship with a financial institution. This means that we
will ask for your name, address, and other
information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see
identifying documents such as a certificate of
formation or good standing (legal entities) or a passport or other photo
identification (individuals).
3rd EU Notice
Governmental rules have also broadened the scope of the Bank's obligations
to aid in the fight against money laundering
and terrorist financing; these rules call for an active involvement of both
asset management firms and their clients. For
new and existing clients we currently have a legal obligation to ask our
customers questions regarding their identities,
addresses, source of funds and, if necessary, legal representatives,
authorized signatories, beneficial owners or control
structures and to collect requisite documentation to substantiate the
information. Also, enhanced anti-money laundering
requirements require that should any of the above personal or institutional
information change, our clients would be
obliged to immediately notify us of the change(s) and provide us with
relevant documentation to verify these changes.
Telephone, Facsimile or Email Instructions
By signing below, you agree that from time to time you may give instructions
by telephone, facsimile or email regarding
the above captioned account(s) (defined herein as "Verbal Instructions"). It
is understood that the risk of Verbal
Instructions being given by person or persons purported to be you is your
own. Absent the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of Deusche Bank Trust Company Americas (DBTCA), you agree to
indemnify and hold harmless DBTCA for
any claims, losses, expenses, costs or attorneys' fees resulting from
DBTCA's acting upon such misunderstood and
EFTA01463683
unauthorized Verbal Instructions. You understand that DBTCA may, but shall
not be required to, seek verification of your
verbal, facsimile or email instructions by call back. In case of doubt,
DBTCA may in its sole discretion refuse to execute
your Verbal Instructions or any part thereof, without incurring any
liability. DBTCA is under no obligation to execute your
Verbal Instructions to transfer funds or securities to any account(s)
without written instructions bearing your original
signature.
Joint Account Disclosure
You have opened a joint account with DBTCA and acknowledge receipt of the
following information: This deposit and any
additions to the account shall become the property of each owner as joint
tenants, and DBTCA may release the entire
account to any owner during the lifetime of all owners. DBTCA may honor
checks, orders or withdrawal requests from
any owner during the lifetime of all owners. The Bank may be required by
service of legal process to remit funds held in
the joint account to satisfy a judgment entered against, or other valid debt
incurred by, any owner of the account. DBTCA
may honor checks, orders or withdrawal requests from the survivor(s) after
the death of any owner(s) and may treat the
account as the sole property of the survivor(s) after the death of any
owner(s). Unless DBTCA receives written notice
signed by any owner not to pay or deliver any joint deposit or addition or
accrual, DBTCA shall not be liable to any owner
for continuing to honor checks, orders or withdrawal requests from any
owner. After the receipt of the notice referred to
in the previous sentence, DBTCA may require the written authorization of any
or all joint owners for any further payments
or deliveries.

you a Company ID, User ID for the

EFTA01463697
access your Accounts and initiate transactions. You may change your Password
at any time.

for increased security. An additional
authentication step may be required at times and you and any users you have
authorized to use the Services

records. You are responsible for maintaining accurate telephone numbers for
you and your users.

EFTA01463698
C. You agree that we may send notices and other communications, including
Company ID, User ID and Password
to the current address and/or e-mail address shown in our records, whether
or not that address includes a
designation for delivery to the attention of any particular individual. You
further agree that the Bank will not be
responsible or liable to you in any way if information is intercepted by an
unauthorized person, either in transit
or at your place of business. You agree to (a) keep your Company ID, User ID
and Password secure and strictly
confidential, (b) instruct each person to whom you give your Company ID,
User ID and Password that he or she
is not to disclose such information to any unauthorized person, (c)
immediately notify us and select a new
Password if you believe your Password may have become known to an
unauthorized person, and (d) the Bank
treating all statements and instructions issued using the Company ID, User
ID and Password as having been
issued by you, and to the Bank and its Service Providers acting in reliance
upon such statements irrespective of
the identity of the person actually causing such statements to be issued.
The Bank and its Service Providers will
have no liability to you for any unauthorized payment or transfer made using
your Company ID, User ID and
Password that occurs before you have notified us of possible unauthorized
use and we have had a reasonable
opportunity to act on that notice. We may suspend or cancel your Company ID,
User ID and Password even
without receiving such notice from you, if we suspect your Company ID, User
ID and Password are being used
in an unauthorized or fraudulent manner.
D. You are solely responsible for maintaining Company ID, User ID and
Password secrecy. For your protection, we
recommend you memorize your Company ID, User ID and Password and do not
write them down. For added
security, you should change your Password periodically. A properly
constructed Password affords you a greater
degree of assurance. A Password is more secure if (a) it contains more
characters, (b) if those characters are
both alpha and numeric characters and (c) if it consists of both upper and
lower case. If your Password is
entered incorrectly on 5 consecutive access attempts, your access to the
Internet Banking Services will be
blocked. If this occurs, please call Customer Support at 1-866-362-4796 to
have your Password reset. You
should also take precautions to protect your personal identification
information, such as your driver's license,
Social Security Number, etc. Someone may use this information alone, or in
conjunction with other information,
to access your Account(s). If you believe that your Company ID, User ID or
Password have been lost or stolen,
EFTA01463699
or that someone has transferred or may transfer money from your Account
without your permission, notify us
immediately by calling the number above. We reserve the right to deny access

Liability
A. Liability for Unauthorized Use.
i.
Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your User ID or Password has become
compromised, or if someone has
transferred or may transfer money from your Account without your permission.
Telephoning is the best
way of keeping your possible losses down. You could lose all the money in
your Account(s) (plus your
maximum overdraft line of credit, if any). If you believe your User ID or
Password has been compromised,
or that someone has transferred money or may transfer money from your
Account(s) without your
permission, call: 1-866-362-4796 during regular business hours, or write:
Deutsche Bank, Banking Service
Team, 345 Park Avenue, Lexington Level Mail Stop NYC20-0108, New York, NY
10154.
ii. For consumers: If you believe an electronic funds transfer (as defined
in the Electronic Funds Transfer Act
and Regulation E of the Federal Reserve Board) shown on your statement was
not authorized by you,
contact us immediately. If you do not notify us of an unauthorized
electronic funds transfer within 60
calendar days after the paper or electronic monthly statement was made
available to you, and we could
have prevented a loss if you had told us in time, you may not recover any
money lost after the 60 days.
If there are extenuating circumstances such as a long trip or hospital stay
which kept you from telling
us, these time periods may be extended.
iii. For consumers only: If you tell us that your User ID or Password has
been compromised within two
Business Days after you learn of the loss or theft, you can lose no more
than $50.00 if someone used
your Password to access your Account and initiate electronic funds transfers
without your permission.
If you do not tell us within two Business
or theft and we could have
prevented the unauthorized use if
all unauthorized electronic
funds transfers, but your maximum
$500.00.
iv. Except as otherwise set forth
or have any responsibility of any
kind for any loss or damage incurred by you as a result, directly or
indirectly, of any unauthorized person
gaining access to, or otherwise making use of, the Internet Banking Services.
v. Upon your request, we may use Security Codes as a security procedure to
prevent unauthorized funds
transfers or other payments (collectively, requests for funds transfers, ACH

entries, transfers between
accounts, bill payment, other payment orders or other communications will be
referred to as a "Payment
Order" in this Agreement). You acknowledge that you have been offered
alternative security procedures
and have chosen the Internet Banking Services and these procedures after
consideration of the risks of
loss faced by you due to the possibility of an unauthorized transaction
occurring. We may process any
Payment Order we receive in your name and you will be responsible for it if
it was initiated using one of
your Security Codes. If a Payment Order issued to us in your name as sender
is verified as authentic using
these security procedures, the Payment Order will be effective as your
Payment Order whether or not
authorized. This means that you will be deemed to have given the Payment
Order, and you will be
obligated on it (including to pay us the amount), even if it was not
authorized by you. Each time you
send a Payment Order through the Internet Banking Services, you warrant that
the Security Codes are
a commercially reasonable method to detect an unauthorized transaction,
based on the circumstances
involved (e.g., the size, type, and frequency of your transfers, as well as
your internal controls). If at
any time the Security Codes ceases to be a commercially reasonable method to
detect unauthorized
transactions (such as by a change in your usage patterns or other
circumstances), you agree to inform
us immediately.
vi. You agree that you are responsible for and bound by any Payment Order
that is received by us in your
name if it was authorized by you, whether or not we used the security
procedures to verify authenticity
or could have prevented a loss to you by using the security procedures to
verify the authenticity of the
Payment Order. You agree that we will not be responsible for verifying
whether a Payment Order or
other communication is originated by an authorized person other than through
the verification process
contained in these security procedures. Thus, when an employee is added or
deleted as an authorized
person on the system, the Bank will treat that person as "authorized" if the
security procedures are
followed, without verifying that employee with you or otherwise
investigating whether the employee is
exercising authority granted by you or consistent with any internal
limitations on activity established by
you for that employee. Among other things, this means that you will be
solely liable for any losses or
damages resulting from your breach of this Agreement or to which your
EFTA01463705
negligence contributed, or which
resulted from unauthorized, fraudulent or dishonest acts by your current and/-
or former authorized agents
(including instances where an authorized agent acted to your detriment).
vii. You are responsible for controlling access to the Internet Banking
Services and for any limitations placed
by you on the Internet Banking Services that an authorized person may
utilize. The fact that we are, or
may be aware of, or could have discovered, any limitation on access to an
Internet banking Service
does not make us obligated to enforce or attempt to enforce any limitation.
You understand that each
authorized person may utilize the Internet banking Services without regard
to any restrictions otherwise
applicable to an Account.

means of the Internet or any
other telecommunications service you may use to access the Services and
cannot guarantee that such
information will not be intercepted.

data obtained from and about you in
the course of your accessing and using the Internet Banking Services. You

protections regarding bank customer information as the United States. It may
be that, in various jurisdictions,
including your home jurisdiction and the jurisdictions where Service
Providers are located, the presence of

Payment and Transfer Limitations
A. Transfers from Money Market & Savings Accounts
Federal regulation limits the numbers of preauthorized electronic funds
transfers and telephone transfers
including Internet Banking transactions from money market deposits and
savings Accounts. Such limitations
are further described in the Account Agreement. You are limited to six
preauthorized electronic fund transfers,
telephone transfers, checks and point-of-sale transactions per statement
cycle from such Accounts. Of these six
transactions, you are limited to only three transactions by check or point-
of-sale. Each transfer or payment from
money market and savings Accounts will count toward the total of six
transfers or withdrawals permitted
per month.
B. We may accept deposits to your Account from any source and need not
question the authority of the person to
make the deposit. All deposits (including transfers) are subject to later
verification, adjustment and collection by
us.
C. Payments will be directed to designated payees only to the extent that
there are sufficient available funds (as
more fully described in our Funds Availability Policy set forth in the
EFTA01463713
Account Agreement) to cover the request
and/or the payment when made. We are not obligated to allow you to overdraw
your Account beyond the
balance and overdraft line of credit available. If we do allow an overdraft,
we are not obligated to continue to
allow you to do so.
D. We may place (and adjust) daily dollar limits on the amount that may be
transferred at any time, and from time
to time, for any reason or for no reason. Except as otherwise imposed by
law, we will have no liability for
refusal to process a payment or transfer that exceeds such daily dollar
limits.
E. We may reject a payment or transfer at any time and from time to time,
for any reason or for no reason. Except
as otherwise imposed by law, we will have no liability for refusal.
F. If a payment describes the beneficiary or beneficiary's bank
inconsistently by name and account or bank
number, execution of the payment request will occur on the basis of the
account and bank number, even if it
identifies a person different from the named beneficiary or bank, and your
obligation to pay the amount of the
payment request to us is not excused in such circumstances.
G. The Internet Banking Services may not be used in violation of and must
comply with the laws of, the United
States, including economic sanctions laws administered by the Office of
Foreign Asset Controls.
H. You agree that we may seek to recover any payment originated in error or
made by you in violation of any
provision of this Agreement or otherwise to prevent loss to us. You agree to
assist us in loss mitigation efforts,
including authorizing ACH debit or other reversing entries or instructions
in your name.
I. A Payment Order or request for other transaction is deemed to be received
by us only when actually received
by us and in the form or context specified by us. You agree that we have a
reasonable time to react to Payment
Orders and other requests. We may acknowledge it by email or online by means
of a summary message log,
depending on the particular Internet Banking Service. Unless you promptly
notify us of a problem with a
Payment Order or any transaction confirmation, you will be deemed to have
approved the accuracy and
completeness of the information contained in the confirmation.

Payment Amendments and Cancellations
You may not amend or cancel a payment order after it has been received and
processed by us.
Preauthorized Payments (For Consumer Electronic Funds Transfers Only)
A. Right to Stop Payment and Procedures for Doing So
If you have told us in advance to make regular payments out of your Account,
you can stop any of these
payments. Here's how: Call us at 1-866-362-4796, or write to us at Deutsche
Bank, Banking Service Team, 345
Park Avenue, Lexington Level Mail Stop NYC20-0108, New York, NY 10154 in
time for us to receive your
request three business days or more before the date the payment is scheduled
to be made. If you call, we may
also require you to put your request in writing and get it to us within 14
days after you call. Unless you notify us
otherwise, we will treat your stop payment order as a request to stop
payment on only one particular payment.
If you want all future payments to a particular party stopped, you must
specifically advise us of that intention.
B. Notice of Varying Amounts
If these regular payments may vary in amount, the person you are going to
pay will tell you, 10 days before
each payment, when it will be made and how much it will be. (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.)
C. Liability for Failure to Stop Payment of Preauthorized Transfer
If you order us to stop one of these payments three business days or more
before the date the payment is
scheduled and we do not do so, we will be liable for your losses or damages
proximately caused by us, subject
to Section 7(D)(ii) above.

weekly, monthly, bi-monthly,
semi-monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually.

D. Payment Authorization and Payment Remittance
i. By providing us with names and account information of Bitters to whom you
wish to direct payments, you
authorize us to follow the Payment Instructions that we receive through the
payment system. In order to
process payments more efficiently and effectively, we may edit or alter
payment data or data formats in
accordance with Biller directives. When we receive a Payment Instruction,
you authorize us to debit your
Payment Account and remit funds on your behalf so that the funds arrive as
close as reasonably possible to
the Scheduled Payment Date designated by you. You also authorize us to
credit your Payment Account for
payments returned to us by the United States Postal Service or Biller, or
payments remitted to you on
behalf of another authorized user of the Bill Payment Service. We will use
our best efforts to make all your
payments properly. However, we shall incur no liability and any Service
Guarantee shall be void if we are
unable to complete any payments initiated by you because of the existence of
any one or more of the
circumstances described in Section 6 above.
ii. Provided none of the exceptions identified in Section 6 above are
applicable, if we cause an incorrect
amount of funds to be removed from your Payment Account or cause funds from
your Payment Account to
be directed to a Biller who does not comply with your Payment Instructions,
we shall be responsible for
returning the improperly transferred funds to your Payment Account, and for
directing to the proper Biller
any previously misdirected transactions, and, if applicable, for any late
payment related charges.
E. Payment Methods
We reserve the right to select the method in which to remit funds on your
behalf to your Biller. These payment
methods may include, but may not be limited to, electronic payment via ACH
or check payment.
F. Payment Inquiries
The current status of all Bill Payments may be viewed using the Bill Payment
Service. This includes scheduled
payments, in-process and processed payments Processed payment inquiries may
also be sent via the Bill
Payment Service to the Banking Service Team using the "Contact Us" link on
the Customer Support page or by
phone at 1-800-593-4345.
G. Payment Cancellation Requests
You may cancel or edit any Scheduled Payment (including recurring payments)
by following the online
directions within the Bill Payment Service application. There is no charge
for canceling or editing a Scheduled
Payment. Once we have begun processing a payment it cannot be cancelled or
EFTA01463717
edited, therefore a stop
payment request must be submitted if applicable or allowed by contacting the
Banking Service Team at
1-866-362-4796.
H. Stop Payment Requests
Our ability to process a stop payment request will depend on the payment
method and whether or not a check
has cleared. Also, we may not have a reasonable opportunity to act on any
stop payment request after a
payment has been processed. If you desire to stop any payment that has
already been processed, you must
contact the Banking Service Team at 1-866-362-4796. Although we will make
every effort to accommodate
your request, we will have no liability for failing to do so. We may also
require you to present your request in
writing within 10 days. The charge for each stop payment request is $10.00.
The charge for stop payment
requests will be applied whenever any Bill Payment is stopped at your
request, because you submitted an
incorrect Biller address or because you request a refund on a check that has
not yet cleared. The charge will not
be assessed if the payment is stopped due to an error by the Bank or its
Service Provider, the payment was not
posted by the Biller even though you correctly submitted the Biller address
or if the check was lost in the mail.
From time to time, the Internet Banking Service may be inoperable. If that
occurs, your request can be
communicated to the Bank by telephone instructions. The Cut-Off time for us
to receive a stop-payment request
is 4:00 p.m. New York time on a Business Day and a stop payment request
received after that time will be
processed on the next Business Day. You agree that we will have a reasonable
period of time following receipt
of a stop payment request to act on it.
I. Prohibited Payments
Payments to Billers outside of the United States or its territories are
prohibited through the Bill Payment Service.
3. Consumer Client Government Payments
For consumers only: You agree not to use the Bill Payment Service to make
state or federal tax payments and
court ordered payments (Government Payments) In no event shall we be liable
for any claims or damages
resulting from your scheduling of Government Payments. The Service Guarantee
as it applies to any late
payment related changes is void when Government Payments are scheduled and/-
or processed by the Bill
Payment Service. We shall have no obligation to research or resolve any
claim resulting from a Government
Payment. All research and resolution for any misapplied, misposted or
misdirected Government Payments will
be the sole responsibility of you and not of us.

payment. The Bank will notify you

iii. Biller is unable to locate account; or
iv. Biller account is paid in full.

payment and return it to your Biller,
but may not be able to do so or may be able to do so only after delay. You
agree that we are not responsible for
losses or damages you may suffer as a result. We may at our option at any
time simply void the payment and
credit your Payment Account, either with or without efforts to correct
payment information. We may, but are
not required to, notify you in the event a payment has been voided.
M. Information Authorization

charged and/or credited to the Account(s), you and the Bank hereby agree as
follows:

authorized by you in writing to
act on your behalf, will prepare and send the Bank debit, credit,
prenotification and other ACH-related
instructions pertaining to the Account(s) ("ACH Instructions"), all of which
shall conform to the then

tests to the ACH for execution.

which is necessary to conform
with the deadlines for processing ACH Instructions on the date of receipt as
prescribed by such operating
regulations, is set forth in Section 23 above.

Bank pursuant to the security
procedure set forth in Section 3 above. You represent that ACH Instructions
have been duly authorized by
you, and that all information contained in the ACH Instructions is correct
and complete. You shall comply
with the requirements of the security procedure set forth in Section 3 above
with respect to ACH
Instructions transmitted by you to the Bank. You understand and agree that
the purpose of such security
procedure is intended to determine whether the communications purportedly
issued by you and received
by the Bank are authorized, but is not intended to detect any errors
contained in such communications.
No security procedure for the detection of any such error has been agreed
upon between you and the
Bank. When the Bank acts in accordance with the security procedure in
processing an ACH Instruction,
such ACH Instruction will be effective as if authorized by you, even though
such ACH Instruction has not
been authorized by you and you agree to pay the amount of such ACH
Instruction, and to hold the
Bank harmless and otherwise waive any and all claims against the Bank with
respect to any such
ACH Instruction.
ii. Requests for cancellation, reversal or return of ACH Instructions shall
be made by fax or email, and shall be
subject to the time limits set forth in Section 23 above.
iii. You acknowledge that the Bank has made available information with
respect to the operation and risks
associated with the security procedure set forth in Section 3 above. You
hereby represent and warrant to
the Bank that after careful review of the history of your transactions and
your anticipated transactions, you
are satisfied that the security procedure is appropriate for your needs and
that such security procedure is
reasonable under your circumstances.

reservations referred to in the
preceding sentence. You agree that, except to the extent provided by
applicable law and consistent with
Section 7(D)(i) above, the Bank, other members of the Deutsche Bank Group,
their Service Providers and their

or omissions of any agents or
correspondents selected by you. Consistent with Section 7(D)(i) above, in no
event shall the Bank, other

inconsistently by name and
account number, payment of the Entry transmitted by the Bank to the RDFI may
be made by the RDFI (or by
the Bank in the case of an On-Us ACH Instruction) on the basis of the
account number supplied by you, even if

Bank of such error within 30 days after the Bank provides you with or

error. You agree that: (a) if you fail to
make such notification within such 30 day period, the Bank will not be
liable for any other losses resulting from
your failure to give such notice or any loss of interest or any interest
equivalent with respect to an ACH
Instruction reflected on such periodic statement and (b) your right to
assert a claim against the Bank with
