NOTICE OF CHANGES IN TEMPORARY FDIC
INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR TRANSACTION ACCOUNTS
All funds in
a “noninterest-bearing transaction account” are insured in full by
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation from December 31, 2010,
through December 31, 2012. This temporary unlimited coverage is in
addition to, and separate from, the coverage of at least $250,000
available to depositors under the FDIC’s general deposit insurance
rules.
The term
“noninterest-bearing transaction account” includes a traditional
checking account or demand deposit account on which the insured
depository institution pays no interest. It also includes Interest
on Lawyers Trust Account ("IOLTAs"). It does not
include other accounts, such as traditional checking or demand
deposit accounts that may earn interest, NOW accounts, and money-market
deposit accounts.

accounts, visit www.fdic.gov.
