1. Opening the Account

Important information about procedures for opening a new Account. 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 or business that opens an Account. We will ask for the name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify the Customer and/or Authorized Signers. We will also ask for other information related to the business entity, and Authorized Signers. If we are not able to validate the identity or authenticity of the Authorized Signor or the Customer to our satisfaction, we may not open the Account. If we are unable to validate the identity of an Authorized Signer, we may not provide them access to the Account.

By opening, using or authorizing the use of the Account, you represent and warrant to us that: (i) Authorized Signers are at least 18 years of age (or older in a state where the majority age is older); (ii) Authorized Signers are U.S. citizens or legal residents residing in the fifty (50) states of the United States (“U.S.”) or the District of Columbia; (iii) the Customer is a legally incorporated U.S. entity (or person in the case of a sole proprietorship) with a verifiable U.S. street address (not a P.O. Box); (iv) the personal and business information provided to us by the Customer or Authorized Signers in connection with the Account is true, correct and complete; and (v) the Customer and Authorized Signers (if applicable) have received a copy of this Agreement and agree to be bound by and to comply with its terms.

We may use information from, and share information with, third parties to help us determine if we should open an Account.

At any point in time, up to one Authorized Signer may be listed on the Account. An Authorized Signer is a person who has actual or apparent authority to transact business on the Account, whether or not the Bank has a record of such person’s electronic signature on file. To add or remove an Authorized Signer from an existing Account, please contact Customer Service. The Bank may continue to recognize an Authorized Signer’s authority until the Bank has received and had a reasonable time to act upon a revocation or modification request from the Primary Accountholder.

Customer is responsible for all authorized transactions initiated and fees incurred by use of the Account.

9. Negative Balances

If the available balance in the Account is insufficient to cover any authorized payment or withdrawal, we can refuse to honor the payment or withdrawal. You are not permitted to conduct transactions that bring your Account balance negative. If the Account balance should become negative for any reason, a deposit or deposits must be immediately made to cover the negative balance. If the Account has a negative balance for seven (seven) calendar days, it may be closed.

To provide notice of an unauthorized or incorrect debit from the Account, please contact Customer Service.

11. Error Resolution

In the case of a discrepancy or questions about electronic transaction(s), contact Customer Service as soon as possible. For non-consumer ACH Debits, you must notify Customer Service to return by 2:30 PM ET. If we are not timely notified of an unauthorized non-consumer ACH Debit entry, we will not be able to return the item without the cooperation and agreement of the originating bank and the originator of the debit entry. Any other effort to recover the funds must occur solely between Customer and the originator of the entry.

12. Transaction History

Periodic statements for the Account will be made available in electronic format to Customer each month and are deemed delivered once made available. Carefully review Company’s statement each statement period and notify us of any discrepancies within thirty (30) days of the statement becoming available.

This information, along with a twelve (12) month history of Account transactions, is also available online at our Website. You also have a right to printed Account transactions by contacting Customer Service.

13. UCC-4A Disclosure

  • Provisional Payment Disclosure: Credit given to you with respect to an ACH Credit entry is provisional until we receive final settlement for such entry through a Federal Reserve Bank. If we do not receive such final settlement, you are hereby notified and agree that the Bank is entitled to a refund of the amount credited to your account. The party paying you, i.e., the originator of the entry, shall not be deemed to have paid you in the amount of such entry.
  • Notice Disclosure: Under the operating rules of Nacha, which sets the rules for the ACH transactions regarding your account, we are not required to give next-day notice to you of receipt of an ACH item, and we will not do so. However, we will continue to notify you of the receipt of payments in the periodic statements we provide you.
  • Choice of Law Disclosure: We may accept on your behalf payments to your account that have been transmitted through one or more Automated Clearing Houses. For non-consumer accounts, these payments are not subject to the Electronic Fund Transfer Act. Your rights and obligations with respect to such payments shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of South Dakota as provided by the operating rules of Nacha, which are applicable to ACH transactions involving your account.

D. FEE SCHEDULE

All fees incurred will be deducted from your Account Balance, except where prohibited by law. NOTE: Fees assessed to your Account may bring your Account negative. Any time your Account balance is less than the fee amount being assessed, the balance of your Account will be applied to the fee amount. THIS WILL RESULT IN A NEGATIVE BALANCE ON YOUR ACCOUNT. If that occurs, any subsequent deposits or loads into your Account will first be applied to the negative balance.

Return Fee $5.00 (per item)
Un-authorized Return Fee $25.00 (per item)
Non-Sufficient Funds Fee $25.00 (per item)

E. FUNDS AVAILABILITY

1. Your ability to Withdraw Funds

We make funds available according to the type of deposit and when the funds are applied or credited to the Account. Some types of deposits may not be available for immediate use. When we delay the availability of funds or place a hold on a deposit made to the Account, Customer may not withdraw those funds, and we will not use them to pay any debits, such as ACH transfers or payments during the hold period. We have the right to refuse any deposit.

If final payment is not received on any item deposited into the Account, or if any direct deposit, or ACH transfer credit is returned to us for any reason, Customer agrees to pay us the amount of the returned item.

2. Determining the Availability of a Deposit

The length of delay in the availability of funds is counted in Business Days from the day a Customer deposit is applied to the Account. Deposits received in our operations center by 6:00 PM ET on a business day will be considered made on that day. Any deposits received in our operations center after that time will be considered made on the next business day.

The length of delay in the availability of funds varies depending on the type of deposit. Special rules may apply to new Accounts.

3. Same-Day Availability

Funds from wire transfers, preauthorized electronic payments received through the ACH network such as payroll direct deposits, or other preauthorized electronic payments will be available on the effective date of the deposit. ACH Credits received from an external bank account will be applied to the Account when we have verified the external account and received payment on collected funds. Once the funds are applied to the Account, they will have same day availability.

F. INTEREST EARNED ON BUSHEL BUSINESS ACCOUNT

1. General

The Bushel Business Account is interest-bearing. The current interest rate for the Account is 3.43% and is subject to change at our discretion. You can find the current interest rate on the Account in the Bushel Wallet. This interest rate will be paid only for that portion of your daily balance that is equal to or greater than $0.00.

2. Interest Calculation

Interest begins to accrue on the business day we receive credit for the deposit of non-cash items (for example, checks). For electronic direct deposits, interest begins to accrue on the business day the deposit is received. We use the daily balance method to calculate the interest on the Account. This method applies a daily periodic rate to the principal and interest that has been accrued to the Account each day. The daily periodic rate is calculated by dividing the interest rate by three hundred sixty-five (365) days, or three hundred sixty-six (366) in leap years. Interest will be compounded on a daily basis and will be credited to the Account monthly. We reserve the right not to pay interest on any deposited item that is returned to us unpaid.

3. Rate Changes

The interest rate and the method used to calculate interest are subject to change from time to time. You will be given notice of such changes in accordance with applicable law.

4. Tax Information

The value of the interest paid out on Accounts may constitute taxable income and may be reported to the Internal Revenue Service as interest income to the first signer on the Account, in the year received, as required by applicable law. Program is limited to customers who are citizens of the United States that furnish a valid TIN/EIN, and the Account must not be subject to backup withholding. Customers may be issued an Internal Revenue Service Form 1099 (or other appropriate form) that reflects the value of such interest paid on the Account. Please consult a tax adviser, as Bushel and Bank do not provide tax advice.

4. Unauthorized Transactions and Errors

The Bank’s security procedures are not designed for the detection of errors (e.g. duplicate payments or errors contained in Customer instructions).

Customer’s failure to promptly report to the Bank within such specified time the existence of any discrepancies in any record or other information constitutes Customer’s acceptance of the record or other information as valid and accurate and shall preclude Customer from asserting against the Bank any claims arising from or any loss caused by the discrepancy.

In no event shall the Bank have any liability for any consequential, special, incidental, punitive, or indirect loss or damage which Customer may incur or suffer in connection with this Agreement, whether or not the likelihood of such damages was known or contemplated by the Bank and regardless of the legal or equitable theory of liability Customer may assert. Without limiting the foregoing, the Bank shall not be liable for, and the Bank shall be excused from failing to act or delay in acting if such failure or delay is caused by legal constraint, interruption of transmission or communications facilities, equipment failure, war, act of terror, emergency conditions, or other conditions beyond Bank’s control. To the extent allowed by law, the Bank shall not be liable for and shall be excused from failing to process or any delay in processing a transfer of funds (i) if, in the Bank’s sole discretion, processing a transfer would violate or contribute to the violation of any law, regulation or regulatory requirement; or (ii) if processing a transfer, in the Bank’s sole discretion, would cause it to engage in an unsafe and unsound practice. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in no event will the Bank’s liability for any loss, cost, or liability arising from the Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct exceed the average monthly charge for the Account-related services in question for the month preceding the date or loss, except as otherwise required by UCC Article 4A.

The term “Claim” has a very broad meaning and includes, by way of example and not limitation, disputes concerning: (i) the acquisition, use, or balance of your Account; (ii) advertisements, promotions or oral or written statements related to the Account (iii) a dispute based on a federal or state statute or local ordinance; (iv) data breach or privacy claims arising from or relating directly or indirectly to the disclosure by us of any non-public personal information about you; and (v) the relationships between you and us arising from this Agreement or any of the foregoing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a “Claim” does not include (i) the exercising of any self-help or non-judicial remedies by you or us, meaning actions you or we can take that do not involve court action. Examples of this include setoff rights or enforcement of our security interest in your Account, (ii) disputes regarding a person’s authority to act on your Account and disputes regarding ownership of funds and other legal matters dealing with “legal process” or “legal proceedings and disputes”; and (iii) obtaining provisional or ancillary remedies including, but not limited to, attachment, garnishment, interpleader or the appointment of a receiver by a court of appropriate jurisdiction.

This Arbitration Clause provides that all Claims shall be FINALLY and EXCLUSIVELY resolved by binding individual arbitration, unless excepted or opted out in accordance with the terms below.

By not opting out according to the terms below, you acknowledge that:

  1. YOU AND WE WILL BE BOUND BY THIS CLAUSE TO ARBITRATE ANY CLAIM IF YOU OR WE ELECT ARBITRATION, UNLESS THE CLAIM IS BROUGHT IN OR REMOVED TO SMALL-CLAIMS COURT PURSUANT TO THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE;
  2. NEITHER PARTY WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OR TO ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED FOR IN THE AAA CODE OF PROCEDURE; AND
  3. YOU AND WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO BRING OR BE A CLASS MEMBER IN A CLASS ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION (“Class Action Waiver”).

Arbitration: In arbitration, a neutral third-party arbitrator resolves Claims on an individual basis. Arbitrations under this Arbitration Clause will be made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce and shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) (9 U.S.C. 1-16). An arbitration of a Claim will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its rules; if AAA cannot serve and we do not agree on an alternative arbitrator, a court with jurisdiction will select the arbitrator. For a copy of AAA procedures, to file a Claim, or for other information about this organization, contact AAA at 120 Broadway, Floor 21, New York, NY 10271, (1-800-778-7879), www.adr.org. We will pay the initial filing fee to commence arbitration and other fees we are required to pay by the AAA Rules, and any arbitration hearing that you attend shall take place in the federal judicial district of your residence. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding and final, except for any appeal rights under the FAA. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.

Alternative for Individual Claims: This Arbitration Clause does not affect your or our right to pursue individual Claims in small claims court (or your state’s equivalent court) if the court has jurisdiction over the dispute and the dispute remains in that court. If a party brings a Claim in arbitration, the other party may remove the Claim to small-claims court if the amount in controversy (exclusive of attorneys’ fees and costs if applicable law so provides) is properly within the jurisdiction of a small-claims court. The opposing party must provide notice of intent to remove to small-claims court within 30 days of receiving an arbitration demand from the other party. In any event, if the Claim is removed, appealed or transferred from small-claims court to another court, it shall be subject to arbitration at the election of either party.

Enforceability: All disputes as to the scope, enforceability and validity of this Arbitration Clause shall be made exclusively by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Process: Before bringing a Claim in court or in arbitration, the complaining party must give the other party written notice of the Claim. If you are the complaining party, you must send the notice in writing (and not electronically) to Bushel Exchange, LLC Legal Department, 503 7th Street North, Fargo, North Dakota 58102 USA. You or your representative must sign the notice and must explain the nature of the Claim and any supporting information, such as your Account number and a contact information where you (or your representative) can be reached. If we bring a Claim, we will send a letter to you using the information we have on file for you. The receiving party will have 30 days to respond to the demand.

Opting out: If you do not wish to be bound by this Arbitration Clause, you must mail us a signed notice within 45 calendar days after you acquire or open the Account to Bushel Exchange, LLC Legal Department, 503 7th Street North, Fargo, North Dakota 58102 USA. We will need your name, address, telephone number and Account number. State that you “opt out” of arbitration. Opting out will not affect the other provisions of this Agreement. By opting out, you will have all options available under law to raise a dispute or Claim.

Survival: This Arbitration Clause shall survive: (i) termination of the Agreement by either party; (ii) the bankruptcy of any party; (iii) any transfer, sale or assignment, or any amounts owed on your Account, to any other person or entity; or (iv) closing of the Account. If any portion of this Arbitration Clause is deemed invalid or unenforceable, the remaining portions shall remain in force, except that: (A) If the Class Action Waiver is declared unenforceable in a proceeding between you and us with respect to a Claim that does not seek public injunctive relief, and that determination becomes final after all appeals have been exhausted, this entire Arbitration Clause (except for this sentence) shall be null and void in such proceeding; and (B) If a Claim is brought seeking public injunctive relief and a court determines that the restrictions in this Arbitration Clause prohibiting the arbitrator from awarding relief on behalf of third parties are unenforceable with respect to such Claim, and that determination becomes final after all appeals have been exhausted, the Claim for public injunctive relief will be determined in court and any individual Claims seeking monetary relief will be arbitrated. In such a case the parties will request that the court stay the Claim for public injunctive relief until the arbitration award pertaining to individual relief has been entered in court. In no event will a Claim for class-wide or public injunctive relief be arbitrated.

SCHEDULE 1
Bushel Exchange, LLC Sweep Program

1. Introduction to the Bushel Exchange, LLC Sweep Program

The Bushel Exchange, LLC Sweep Program (“Sweep Program”) allows The Bancorp Bank, N.A., to automatically arrange deposit of the member’s total available Bushel Business Account balance into interest-bearing deposit accounts (each a “Sweep Deposit Account”) at one (1) or more of at least twenty (20) depository institutions, each having a U.S. bank charter (each a “Program Bank”). You agree to appoint The Bancorp Bank, N.A., as your agent to pool the funds in your Bushel Business Account with funds from the holders of other Accounts and to then deposit those funds in one or more FDIC-insured banks, and to obtain your funds from the pooled funds account(s) in order to transfer your funds as you may direct.

Funds in the Sweep Deposit Account at each Program Bank are eligible for FDIC deposit insurance up to at least $250,000 principal and accrued interest per depositor for each ownership category at each Program Bank as defined by the FDIC. It may take up to 2-3 business days for funds deposited in your Bushel Business Account to sweep and arrive at a Program Bank. For purposes of determining the deposit insurance limit, you must aggregate all other deposits you hold in the same ownership category at each Program Bank.

The roster of Program Banks appears on a Program Bank list (“Program Bank List”). The Program Bank List is accessible on https://bushelwallet.com/sweep-program-bank-list. The amount of your funds in the Sweep Deposit Account at each Program Bank is available on your monthly Bushel Business Account statement or by contacting Bushel Wallet Support at [email protected] or 1-866-439-2888.

2. The Bancorp Bank, N.A., as Custodian

The Bancorp Bank, N.A., acts as your agent and custodian in establishing and maintaining Sweep Deposit Accounts at Program Banks. Sweep Deposit Accounts are obligations of the Program Banks and not The Bancorp Bank, N.A., but you will not have direct relationships with Program Banks. All deposits and withdrawals will be made by The Bancorp Bank, N.A., on your behalf.

You may obtain Information about Sweep Deposit Accounts from Bushel Exchange, LLC or The Bancorp Bank, N.A., not the Program Banks.

3. Operation of the Program

On your behalf, The Bancorp Bank, N.A., may deposit up to $250,000 in each Program Bank appearing on the Program Bank List. If your funds available for deposit exceed the FDIC insurance limit for Sweep Deposit Accounts at the first acceptable Program Bank where their funds are deposited, the excess funds will be deposited to another acceptable Program Bank on the Program Bank List. If you still have excess funds, those funds will be deposited to another acceptable Program Bank on the Program Bank List. This process continues through all acceptable Program Banks on the Program Bank List. Notwithstanding the published position of a Program Bank on the Program Bank List, The Bancorp Bank, N.A., reserves the right to deposit your funds to Program Banks in any order. You may contact Bushel Wallet Support or review the monthly Bushel Business Account Statement to determine at which Program Bank(s) funds are on deposit.

The Program Bank List will also include one or more depository institutions where your funds may be deposited without limit and without regard to the $250,000 FDIC deposit insurance limit (“Excess Banks”) if each acceptable Program Bank on the Program Bank List has received funds up to the $250,000 limit, meaning funds in such Excess Bank will not be fully insured. You should consult with an accounting, legal, or tax professional if contemplating depositing funds to an Excess Bank.

4. Changes to the Program Bank List

The Program Bank List may change at any time. We will provide advance notice of any change required by law. For example, one or more of the Program Banks included on the Program Bank List may be replaced with a Program Bank not previously included on the Program Bank Program Bank List; a Program Bank may be added to or deleted from the Program Bank List; or the order of Program Banks on the Program Bank List may change. Changes to the Program Bank List may require you to designate a Program Bank as ineligible to receive funds, e.g., if a Program Bank is removed from the Program Bank List, your funds will be transferred to the next available Program Bank on the Program Bank List that is acceptable to you. The Program Bank List is accessible in the Bushel Wallet application app.bushelwallet.com/programbanklist.

5. Opting out of a Program Bank

At any time, you may designate one or more Program Bank(s) as ineligible to receive your funds. This will result in your funds being deposited at the next acceptable Program Bank on the Program Bank List.

To designate a Program Bank as ineligible at any time, you must contact Customer Support at [email protected] or 1-866-439-2888. You may also designate The Bancorp Bank, N.A. as the sole recipient of all your funds by opting out of all other Program Banks.

6. Your Responsibility to Monitor Balances

The value of any deposits (including items such as certificates of deposit) you maintain directly with a Program Bank must be aggregated with your funds in the Sweep Deposit Account at the Program Bank for purposes of determining the FDIC deposit insurance limit. You are responsible for monitoring the total amount of deposits you have with each Program Bank in order to determine the extent of available FDIC insurance coverage.

Please note: Because the Bushel Business Account may only be owned and titled in the name of one (1) natural person who exercises control over the Bushel Business Account, the Bushel Business Account and Sweep Deposit Accounts cannot be owned or titled: (1) in the name of an organization; (2) as Payable on Death (“POD”); or (3) In Trust For (“ITF”). You should consult with an accounting, legal, or tax professional for all estate planning and asset management matters. The Bancorp Bank, N.A., and Bushel Exchange, LLC do not provide such services.

7. Interest and fees

The interest rates paid with respect to the Sweep Deposit Account at each Program Bank may be higher or lower than the interest rates available to depositors making deposits directly with the Program Bank or other depository institutions in comparable accounts. You should compare the terms, interest rates, required minimum amounts, and other features of the other accounts and/or alternative investments with those of the Sweep Deposit Account.

Each Program Bank will pay The Bancorp Bank, N.A., a fee equal to a percentage of your balance in the Sweep Deposit Account at the Program Bank. The fee may vary from Program Bank to Program Bank. The amount of the fee received by The Bancorp Bank, N.A., may affect the interest rate paid to The Bancorp Bank N.A., by the Program Banks on funds in the Sweep Deposit Accounts. Your APY and interest rate, however, does not change due to differences in the interest rates offered by Program Banks to The Bancorp Bank N.A. The APY and interest rate offered to Bushel Exchange, LLC members is uniform across all members that meet the qualifying conditions. In addition, Bushel Exchange, LLC and service providers will receive a portion of the fee paid by the Program Bank.

2. Risks Associated with the Service

  • There are risks associated with using the Service. Service Transfers are irrevocable and cannot be reversed.

In addition, completion of a Service Transfer may be delayed if the Service Transfer is subject to review by the sending or receiving Service Participant for fraud, regulatory or compliance purposes. Service Transfer requests are typically completed within 15 seconds of transmission by the Sender unless the Service Transfer fails or is delayed as described above. If you are the Sender, we will notify you if a Service Transfer fails. If you are the Receiver, we will not communicate to you that the Service Transfer has failed. If you have not received a Service Transfer that you were expecting, you must contact the Sender.
