The terms and conditions of the deposit agreements and disclosures for each of your GCB accounts as well as your other agreements with GCB, such as loans, continue to apply notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement. This Agreement is also subject to applicable federal laws and the laws of the State of New Jersey. If any provision of this Agreement is found to be unenforceable according to its terms, all remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience or reference only and will not govern the interpretation of the provisions. Any waiver (express or implied) by either party of any default or breach of this Agreement must be in writing and shall not constitute a waiver of any other or subsequent default or breach. You may not assign this Agreement. This Agreement is binding upon your heirs and GCB's successors and assignees. Certain of the obligations of the parties pursuant to this Agreement that by their nature would continue beyond the termination, cancellation or expiration of this Agreement shall survive termination, cancellation or expiration of this Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Enrollment Form and Fee Schedule, constitutes the entire agreement between you and GCB with respect to the subject matter hereof and there are no understandings or agreements relative hereto which are not fully expressed herein. Definitions - As used in this Agreement, the words "we", "our", "us" and "GCB" mean Greater Community Bank. "You" and "your" refer to the accountholder authorized by GCB to use ibranch under this Agreement and anyone else authorized by that accountholder to exercise control over the accountholder's funds through ibranch. "Account" or "accounts" means your accounts at GCB. "Electronic funds transfers" means ATM withdrawals, pre-authorized transactions, point of sale transactions, transfers to and from your GCB accounts using ibranch, including bill payments.

Access - To use ibranch, you must have at least one checking account at GCB, access to Internet service, and an e-mail address. Once we have received your signed Enrollment Form, and verified your account information, we will send you, either by e-mail or by postal mail, confirmation of our acceptance of your enrollment, along with your assigned log-in ID and temporary password. ibranch can be used to access only the GCB accounts which you have designated for access by ibranch in your Enrollment Form. You can add or delete any of your GCB accounts from this Agreement by completing a new Enrollment Form. Access to your accounts through ibranch will be based upon the identification of users and authority levels specified by you in your Enrollment Form. We undertake no obligation to monitor transactions through ibranch to determine that they are made on behalf of the accountholder. ibranch Services - You can use ibranch to check the balance of your GCB accounts, view GCB account histories, transfer funds between your GCB accounts, view checks, change your address, and pay bills from your GCB accounts in the amounts and on the dates you request if you have requested the Bill Payment Service on your Enrollment Form. Balance and activity information are available as of 3:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) of the previous business day. Hours of Access - You can use ibranch seven days a week, twenty-four hours a day, although some or all ibranch services may not be available occasionally due to emergency or scheduled system maintenance. We agree to post notice of any extended periods of non-availability on the GCB ibranch website located at www.GreaterCommunityBank.com. Your Password -
For security purposes, you are required to change your password upon your
initial login to ibranch. You determine
what password you will use and the identity of your password is not communicated
to us. You agree that we are authorized to act on instructions received
under your password. You accept responsibility for the confidentiality
and security of your password and agree to change your password regularly.
Upon three unsuccessful attempts to use your password, your access to
ibranch will be revoked. To re-establish
your authorization to use ibranch,
you must contact us to have your password reset or to obtain a new temporary
password. Security - You understand the importance of your role in preventing misuse of your accounts through ibranch and you agree to promptly examine your paper or electronic statement for each of your GCB accounts as soon as you receive it or as soon as it is made available to you. You agree to protect the confidentiality of your account and account number, and your personal identification information, such as your driver's license number and social security number. You understand that personal identification information by itself, or together with information related to your account, may allow unauthorized access to your account. Your password and login ID are intended to provide security against unauthorized entry and access to your accounts. Data transferred via ibranch is encrypted in an effort to provide transmission security and ibranch utilizes identification technology to verify that the sender and receiver of ibranch transmissions can be appropriately identified by each other. Notwithstanding our efforts to insure that the ibranch system is secure, you acknowledge that the Internet is inherently insecure and that all data transfers, including electronic mail, occur openly on the Internet and potentially can be monitored and read by others. We cannot and do not warrant that all data transfers utilizing ibranch, or e-mail transmitted to and from us, will not be monitored or read by others. Fees and Charges - You agree to pay the fees and charges for your use of ibranch Services as set forth in the current fee schedule. You agree that all such fees and charges will be deducted from the GCB checking account designated as the "Primary Checking Account" on your Enrollment Form. If you close your Primary Checking Account, you must contact us immediately to designate another account as your Primary Checking Account. You agree to pay any additional reasonable charges for services you request which are not covered by this Agreement. You are also responsible for telephone and Internet service fees you incur in connection with your use of ibranch. Posting of Transfers - Transfers initiated through ibranch before 3:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on a business day are posted to your account the same day. Transfers completed after 3:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on a business day, Saturday, Sunday or banking holiday, will be posted on the next business day. ibranch identifies transfers based upon the login ID of the user who made the electronic transfer. Accordingly, you understand and acknowledge that the View Postings screens in both the Transfer and Bill Payer menu options of ibranch will not reflect transfers made by multiple users from the same account if different login IDs are used. You agree to communicate with any other persons with authorized access to your accounts concerning any transfers or bill payments from your accounts in order to avoid overdrafts. Overdrafts (Order of Payments, Transfers, and other Withdrawals) - If your account has insufficient funds to perform all electronic fund transfers you have requested for a given business day, then:
Limits on Amounts and Frequency of ibranch Transactions - The number of transfers from GCB accounts and the amounts which may be transferred are limited pursuant to the terms of the applicable deposit agreement and disclosure for those accounts. If a hold has been placed on deposits made to an account from which you wish to transfer funds, you cannot transfer the portion of the funds held until the hold expires. ibranch Bill Payment Service - You must designate the GCB account from which the payments are to be made; the complete name of the payee, the account number, and the payee's remittance address, all exactly as shown on the billing statement or invoice; the amount of the payment; and the date you want the payment to be debited from your account. If the date you want the payment to be debited from your account is not a business day, your account will be debited the next business day before 3:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time). By using the ibranch Bill Payment Service option, you agree that, based upon instructions received under your password, we can charge your designated account by electronic transfer, "no signature required draft", or by debiting and remitting funds on your behalf. You also agree that your first ibranch bill payment will be charged to your Primary Checking Account. We reserve the right to refuse to pay any payee designated by you. If we do so, we will notify you promptly. Scheduling ibranch Payments - If the payee is to be paid by paper, you understand and agree that paper checks are mailed to the payee and the payee may not receive the payment until 5 to 8 business days after the date the payment is debited from your account. If the payee is to be paid electronically, you understand and agree that the payee may not receive the payment until 3 business days after the date the payment is debited from your account. You understand and agree that we are not responsible for the timely delivery of mail or the improper transmission or handling of payments by a third party, such as the failure of the bill payment payee to properly post a payment to your account. How to Cancel a Bill Payment - To cancel a bill payment that you have scheduled through ibranch, you must cancel the payment online via ibranch (by following the onscreen instructions) before 3:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on the date the payment is scheduled to be debited from your account. Stop Payment Requests
- Stopping the payment of a check is different from the cancellation
of a bill payment. Once the bill payment has been debited from your account,
you CANNOT cancel or stop a bill payment which has been paid electronically.
You may be able to stop an ibranch
bill payment paid by paper draft by contacting us by telephone before
the paper draft has cleared. (You will have to contact us by telephone
to determine if the paper draft has cleared.) If the paper draft has not
cleared, we will immediately process your stop-payment request. We will
notify you immediately if the paper draft has already cleared. To be effective,
this type of stop-payment request must precisely identify the name of
the payee, the payee-assigned account number, the amount and scheduled
date of the payment, and the ID number from the Bill Payment View Posting
Screen. Disclosure of Account Information and Transfers - You understand information about your accounts or the transfers you make may automatically be disclosed to others. For example, tax laws require disclosure to the government of the amount of interest you earn, and some transactions, such as large currency and foreign transactions, must be reported to the government. We may also provide information about your accounts to persons or companies we believe would use the information for reasonable purposes, such as when a prospective creditor seeks to verify information you may have given in a credit application or a merchant calls to verify a check you have written. In addition, we routinely inform credit bureaus when accounts are closed because they were not handled properly. We may also seek information about you from others, such as the credit bureau, in connection with the opening or maintaining of your account or in connection with approving your access to ibranch. You agree and hereby authorize all of these transfers of information. Periodic Statements - You will not receive a separate ibranch statement. Transfers to and from your accounts using ibranch will appear on the respective periodic paper or electronic statements for your GCB accounts. Change in Terms - We may change any term of this Agreement at any time. If the change would result in increased fees for any ibranch service, increased liability for you, fewer types of available electronic fund transfers, or stricter limitations on the frequency or dollar amount of transfers, we agree to give you notice at least 21 days before the effective date of any such change, unless an immediate change is necessary to maintain the security of an account or our electronic fund transfer system. We will post any required notice of the change in terms on the GCB ibranch website or forward it to you by e-mail or by postal mail. If advance notice of the change is not required, and disclosure does not jeopardize the security of the account or our electronic fund transfer system, we will notify you of the change in terms within 30 days after the change becomes effective. Your continued use of any or all of the subject ibranch Services indicates your acceptance of the change in terms. We reserve the right to waive, reduce, or reverse charges or fees in individual situations. You acknowledge and agree that changes to fees applicable to specific accounts are governed by the applicable deposit agreements and disclosures. In Case of Errors or Questions about Your Electronic Transfers, including Bill Payments - Contact us as soon as you can, if you think your paper or electronic statement is wrong, or if you need more information about a transfer listed on your paper or electronic statement. We must hear from you no later than 60 days after we sent the FIRST paper statement upon which the problem or error appeared, or 60 days from which an electronic statement was made available to you. When you contact us:
If you contact us by telephone or by e-mail, we may require that you send us your complaint or question in the form of a paper Writing by postal mail or fax within 10 business days. We will communicate to you the results of our investigation within 10 business days after you contact us and will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will provisionally credit your account within 10 business days for the amount you think is in error, so that you will have the use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation. If we ask you to put your complaint or question in writing and WE DO NOT receive it in the form of a paper writing within 10 business days, we may not provisionally credit your account. We will tell you the results within three 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. If we have made a provisional credit, a corresponding debit will be made from your account. Our Liability for Failure to Make a Transfer - If we do not complete a transfer to or from your account, including a bill payment, on time or in the correct amount, according to our agreement with you when you have properly instructed us to do so, we will be liable to you for your losses or damages caused as a result. However, there are some exceptions. We will NOT be liable, for instance:
Your Liability
for Unauthorized Transfers - CONTACT US AT ONCE if you believe your
password has been lost, stolen, used without your authorization, or otherwise

money in your accounts (plus your maximum overdraft line of credit, if
any).
