AGREEMENT TO ACCEPT TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR ELECTRONIC BANKING AND BILL PAYMENT (eBanking)

By requesting and accepting the Johnson Bank Electronic Banking and Bill Payment (“eBanking”) Agreement (this “Agreement”), you agree to comply with all terms and conditions as stated in this document. You will gain access through eBanking to all accounts that you are associated with as a personal or business owner unless accounts are identified with special restrictions. Your receipt of this Agreement and acknowledgement of acceptance will automatically activate the eBanking services for you. At times, Johnson Bank may need to approve eBanking in connection with your accounts. If you are not immediately able to view your accounts upon acceptance, please contact the Johnson Financial Group Customer Support Center at 1.888.769.3796 to determine whether the services you requested have been approved for activation. You are responsible for selecting all hardware and software and your Internet Service Provider, and for any defect or malfunction, including interruption of Internet service. Acceptance of the eBanking agreement does not alter or dismiss the Johnson Bank Deposit Account Disclosure and Agreement (DADA) that was provided to you at account opening. Please review all agreements for additional information that may impact your account(s). This Agreement incorporates by this reference all other agreements between Johnson Bank and you relating to your accounts, including the DADA. To the extent of any inconsistency, this Agreement shall govern and prevail.

Johnson Bank may at its discretion limit access, usage of electronic banking services/features, and funds transfers for individuals under the age of eighteen (18).

PERSONAL SECURITY CODE

We will issue to you or you will select one or more security codes, login identifiers, and password identifiers, hereinafter known as Personal Security Codes (“PSC”). You may receive more than one PSC, depending on the number of services you have requested, and the levels of security required in connection with a service. At times, you may also receive a one-time security code. To facilitate additional security, a one-time, randomly generated validation code, will be provided to you. You will enter the code before completing certain transactions to prevent fraudulent activity and unauthorized access to your accounts and financial information.

If anyone uses your PSC with your permission, you will be responsible for any charges made to the account. You agree to safely keep the PSC, not to record the PSC or otherwise disclose or make the PSC available to anyone other than an authorized user and to use the PSC in accordance with these instructions. We are authorized to provide information relating to your accounts through the Telephone Service and eBanking Service to anyone accessing the accounts and using the proper PSC. Tell us AT ONCE if you believe that your PSC, a Card, or any other access device is lost or stolen, or if you believe that an electronic funds transfer has been made without your permission using information from your account. Telephoning is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. You could lose all the money in your accounts (plus your maximum related line of credit providing overdraft protection, if any).

UNAUTHORIZED USE

If someone uses your eBanking, Telephone Service, or any access device and your PSC without your permission, you can lose no more than $50.00 if you tell us within two business days. If you do NOT tell us within two business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your PSC, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from using your PSC without your permission if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.00.

If you do not tell us about an unauthorized transaction within 60 days of the date we send a periodic statement, you may not get any money you lose after the 60 days if we can demonstrate that we could have prevented the loss of money if we were aware of the situation in a timely manner. We may extend this time period due to extenuating circumstances.

If you believe your PSC or access device has been lost or stolen, or that someone has transferred or may transfer money from your account without your permission, call the Bank, or write to us at the address or phone number listed within this disclosure.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, you are liable for any and all unauthorized transactions on a business account, including those made by or through the use of a Card, the Telephone Service, or the eBanking Service.

BUSINESS DAYS

Our business days are Monday through Friday. Federal holidays are not included.

CUT-OFF TIMES

If your order for payment or funds transferred to a deposit account is received prior to 8:00 p.m. Central Time (“CT”) on a business day, your order will be processed on that same day. If your order for payment or funds transferred to a deposit account is received on or after 8:00 p.m. CT or on a non-Business Day, your order may not be processed until the next business day. As applicable, different cut-off times may apply to certain eBanking services.

If there are no transactions in a particular month, you will receive a statement at least quarterly.

There are exceptions, where Johnson Bank will not be liable, including in the following instances:

IN NO EVENT SHALL WE BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY THEREOF, ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OF THESE SERVICES.

You agree to maintain sufficient funds in your account to pay in full the amount of any withdrawals, transfers, or other instructions for payment out of an account. Whenever your account is overdrawn, we have the right to return unpaid any checks or other orders on your account which are presented to us and to assess a service charge of $35.00 for making such return. If you overdraw your account, each of you agrees, jointly and severally, to immediately pay us the overdrawn amount, together with any applicable service charge, and we have the right to charge all or part of the deficiency to any account you may have with us or use any other collection remedy. We are authorized to charge such amounts against any account you maintain with us. If the account is maintained in connection with a line of credit, any overdraft will be made in accordance with the agreement or rules governing that account. You should refer to your line of credit agreement for important information regarding advances of that line of credit.

External transfers allow you to transfer funds between your linked personal or business deposit accounts at Johnson Bank and certain deposit accounts owned by you or your business at another financial institution.

You are responsible for making corrections or adjustments regarding the notification of change prior to the next transfer date. If corrections have not been made, you understand that your account transfer will be blocked until the corrections to the account information have been completed.

Receiving Money; Money Transfers by Network Banks:

Once a User initiates a transfer of money to your email address or mobile phone number enrolled with the Service, you have no ability to stop the transfer. By using the Zelle Payment Service, you agree and authorize Johnson Bank to initiate credit entries to the bank account you have enrolled.

Most transfers of money to you from other Users will occur within minutes. There may be other circumstances when the payment may take longer. For example, in order to protect you, Johnson Bank, Zelle and the other Network Banks, Johnson Bank may need, or Zelle may need additional time to verify your identity or the identity of the person sending the money. Johnson Bank may also delay or block the transfer to prevent fraud or to meet our regulatory obligations. If Johnson Bank delays or blocks a payment that you have initiated through a request for money, Johnson Bank will notify you in accordance with your User preferences (i.e. email, push notification).

If you are receiving a payment from a business or government agency, your payment will be delivered in accordance with both this Agreement and the procedures of the business or government agency that is sending you the payment.

Sending Money; Debits by Network Banks:

You may send money to another User at your initiation or in response to that User's request for money. You understand that use of this Service by you shall at all times be subject to (i) this Agreement, and (ii) your express authorization at the time of the transaction for Johnson Bank to initiate a debit entry to your bank account. You understand that when you send the payment, you will have no ability to stop it. You may only cancel a payment if the person to whom you sent the money has not yet enrolled in the Service. If the person you sent money to has already enrolled with Zelle, either in the Zelle mobile app or with a Network Bank, the money is sent directly to their bank account (except as otherwise provided below) and may not be canceled or revoked.

In most cases, when you are sending money to another User, the transfer will occur in minutes; however, there are circumstances when the payment may take longer. For example, in order to protect you, Johnson Bank, Zelle and the other Network Banks, Johnson Bank may need additional time to verify your identity or the identity of the person receiving the money. If you are sending money to someone who has not enrolled as a User with Zelle, either in the Zelle mobile app or with a Network Bank, they will receive a text or email notification instructing them on how to enroll to receive the money. You understand and acknowledge that a person to whom you are sending money and who is not enrolling as a User may fail to enroll with Zelle, or otherwise ignore the payment notification, and the transfer may not occur.

The money may also be delayed or the transfer may be blocked to prevent fraud or comply with regulatory requirements. If Johnson Bank delays or blocks a payment that you have initiated, Johnson Bank will notify you in accordance with your User preferences (i.e. email, push notification).

Johnson Bank has no control over the actions of other Users, other Network Banks or other financial institutions that could delay or prevent your money from being delivered to the intended User.

Liability:

Neither Johnson Bank nor Zelle shall have liability to you for any transfers of money, including without limitation, (i) any failure, through no fault of Johnson Bank or Zelle to complete a transaction in the correct amount, or (ii) any related losses or damages. Neither Johnson Bank nor Zelle shall be liable for any typos or keystroke errors that you may make when using the Service.

You agree that notwithstanding any other provision of this agreement, Johnson Bank is not liable for any fees, costs, losses or damages of any kind incurred by you as a result of our access to accounts; our ability or inability to debit and/or credit accounts in accordance with your funds transfer instructions; any inaccuracy, incompleteness or misinformation contained in the information retrieved on the accounts; any charges imposed, or actions taken, any funds transfer limitations set, any liability arising from the receipt or non-receipt of third party notifications sent to transfer funds recipients' email addresses or mobile phone numbers provided to Johnson Bank.

You agree that you, not Johnson Bank or Zelle, are solely responsible for resolving any payment or disputes that you have with any other member with whom you send money to, or receive or request money from, using the Zelle Payment Service.

THE SERVICE IS INTENDED FOR SENDING MONEY TO FAMILY, FRIENDS AND OTHERS WHOM YOU TRUST. YOU SHOULD NOT USE ZELLE TO SEND MONEY TO PERSONS WITH WHOM YOU ARE NOT FAMILIAR OR YOU DO NOT TRUST. ZELLE DOES NOT OFFER A PROTECTION PROGRAM FOR AUTHORIZED PAYMENTS MADE THROUGH THE SERVICE (FOR EXAMPLE, IF YOU DO NOT RECEIVE THE GOODS OR SERVICES THAT YOU PAID FOR, OR THE GOODS OR SERVICES THAT YOU RECEIVED ARE DAMAGED OR ARE OTHERWISE NOT WHAT YOU EXPECTED).

There are limits on the amount of money you can send or receive through the Zelle Payment Service. Johnson Bank may change these limits at any time at our sole discretion.

Requesting Money:

You may request money from another User. You understand and acknowledge that Users to whom you send payment requests may reject or ignore your request. Neither Johnson Bank nor Zelle guarantee that you will receive money from other Users by sending a payment request, or that you will receive the amount that you request. Neither Johnson Bank nor Zelle accept responsibility if the other User rejects or ignores your request, or sends you an amount that is less than you request. If a User ignores your request, Johnson Bank may decide orZelle may decide, in our sole discretion, that Johnson Bank will not send a reminder or repeat request to that User.

By accepting this Agreement, you agree that you are not engaging in the business of debt collection by attempting to use the Service to request money for the payment or collection of an overdue or delinquent debt; to request money that is owed to another person; or to collect any amounts that are owed pursuant to a court order. You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Zelle, its owners, directors, officers agents and Network Banks, including Johnson Bank, from and against all claims, losses, expenses, damages and costs (including, but not limited to, direct, incidental, consequential, exemplary and indirect damages), and reasonable attorney's fees, resulting from or arising out of any request for money that you send that is related to overdue or delinquent amounts.

You agree to receive money requests from other Users, and to only send requests for legitimate and lawful purposes. Requests for money are solely between the sender and recipient and are not reviewed or verified by Johnson Bank or by Zelle. Neither Johnson Bank nor Zelle assume responsibility for the accuracy or legality of such requests and do not act as a debt collector on your behalf or on behalf of the sender of a request for money.

Johnson Bank reserves the right, but assumes no obligation, to terminate your ability to send requests for money, or to specific recipients, if Johnson Bank deems such requests to be potentially unlawful, abusive, or unwelcome by the recipient.

Transaction Errors:

Johnson Bank relies on information provided by you and you authorize Johnson Bank to act on any instruction, which was or reasonably appears to have been sent by you, and to submit fund transfer instructions on your behalf. Johnson Bank is not obligated to take any further steps to confirm or authenticate instructions and will act on them without further confirmation. You agree to accept full responsibility for losses resulting from any of your errors, ambiguities, duplication, or fraud in the information that you provide. If any information you provide is untrue, inaccurate, incomplete, or not current, Johnson Bank reserves the right to recover from you any costs or losses incurred as a direct or indirect result of the information you provide.

Your Liability for Unauthorized Transfers:

Advise Johnson Bank at once if you believe your User ID and Password or biometric information has been lost or stolen, or if you believe that an electronic fund transfer has been made without your permission. Contacting Johnson Bank immediately is the best way of keeping your possible losses down. You could lose all the money in your account (plus your maximum overdraft line of credit, if any). Contact information for error resolution is provided in this Agreement.

If you furnish another person with means of access to your account, all transactions completed by this person shall be deemed authorized until you give Johnson Bank notice that additional transactions are unauthorized. Until such notification is received by Johnson Bank, any misuse shall be your sole responsibility. Johnson Bank shall have no liability to you for any errors or losses you sustain in using the Zelle Payment Service except where Johnson Bank fails to exercise ordinary care in processing any transaction.

Liability for Failure to Complete Transfers:

Johnson Bank does not make any representation or warranty that any particular transfer transaction can be completed, or that it will be completed within a particular period of time. You understand and agree that Johnson Bank has no control over the actions of other members, or of other financial institutions, which may prevent or delay a transfer transaction from being completed. Johnson Bank is not obligated to make any transfer you request unless there are sufficient available funds in your account to cover the transfer.

Johnson Bank reserves the right to decline or cancel any payment instructions to carry out change or cancellation requests. Johnson Bank may, at our discretion, not complete a transfer transaction for any reason. Johnson Bank may, at our discretion, accept instructions from any Zelle member or from a member's financial institution to block your attempts to use the Zelle Payment Service to initiate transfer transactions with Zelle Payment Service members.

Johnson Bank will not be liable for any loss or damage resulting from the following:
