INTERNET BANKING
AGREEMENT
I agree that my use of
the Internet Banking
Services will confirm
that I have completed
and reviewed this
Agreement and applicable
disclosures, both of
which Community First
Bank may amend from time
to time. My initial use
of any Internet Banking
Service in connection
with my account(s) at
Community First Bank
constitutes my
acceptance and agreement
to be legally bound by
all of the terms and
conditions of the
Agreement and of the
Deposit Account Terms
and Conditions.
1.Internet Banking
Services
I have the Checking
and/or Savings account(s)
with you set forth on my
application form. I
hereby request that you
issue to me Login Codes
to be used in connection
with such accounts as
described in the
Agreement. I understand
I may use Internet
Banking to (1) transfer
funds between accounts;
(2) obtain available
balances on accounts;
(3) obtain the current
balances on accounts;
(4) obtain transaction
history on accounts; and
where applicable (5) pay
bills on line. Internet
Banking Services
requires me to have
Internet access
established.
2. Identification
Number and Password
I understand that my
Password or PIN can be
used to expend funds
from my account and that
this code must be
safeguarded. I authorize
Community First Bank and
its agents to follow any
instructions transmitted
by use of this code, and
I agree to be bound
thereby. If accessing a
business or
non-commercial account,
I certify that I am
authorized to use the
PIN or Password.
Community First Bank is
entitled to act upon
instructions received
through any Internet
Banking Service under my
PIN or Password without
inquiring into the
identity of the person
using the PIN or
Password. However, I
agree that I will not,
under any circumstances,
disclose my PIN or
Password to any person.
I acknowledge that no
employee of Community
First Bank needs or
should ever ask for my
PIN or Password. I am
liable for all
transactions made or
authorized using my PIN
or Password. Community
First Bank has no
responsibility for
establishing the
identity of any person
determining the validity
of any transaction
received using my PIN or
Password. If I provide
my PIN or Password to
anyone, I authorize any
transactions carried out
by that person.
Community First Bank
assumes all transactions
authorized by my PIN or
Password are legitimate.
I hereby indemnify and
release Community First
Bank from any and all
liability and agree not
to make any claim
against Community First
Bank or bring any action
against Community First
Bank in honoring or
allowing any actions or
transactions where I
have authorized the
person performing the
action or transaction to
use my account or when I
have provided my PIN or
Password to that person.
3. Liability for
Unauthorized
Transactions
I agree to contact you
at once if I believe the
Login Codes issued to me
have been lost or
stolen. At any time, I
may ask you to disable
my Access ID or Password
and issue a new one to
me. I also agree that if
my monthly statement
shows transactions which
I did not make, and I do
not contact you within
60 days after the
statement was mailed to
me, I risk the return of
lost funds. I understand
that if I believe an
unauthorized transfer
from any of my accounts
has occurred, I will
contact you by writing,
calling or e-mailing you

4. Business Accounts
If I have a business
account I am liable for
all transactions that
occur on the account. As

authorize all
transactions made by any
other persons. As the
owner of the business
account I agree to be
liable for any other
parties designated (by
being given the PIN or
Password) to conduct
business on the
account(s).
5. Multiple Accounts
For multiple accounts,
each person on a
multiple party account
will be liable for all
transactions that are
made on that account.

multiple party account
authorizes all
transactions made by any
other signer(s) on the
account(s). Each owner(s)
on a multiple party
account(s) agrees to be
liable for the actions
of the other owner(s) on
the account. The
limitations of liability
set forth in this
Agreement are subject
to, and limited by any
state or federal law to
the contrary.

charges or transaction
fees which are charged
by you for these
services or for services
which may later be
offered as such fees or
charges may be imposed
or changed from time to
time. Further, I agree
to pay all telephone

Community First Bank
will not allow any
additional transactions
on the account, nor will
additional Internet
Banking Services be

Agreement is modified,
my continued use of the
Account will represent
