This Amendment to the Deposit Terms and Conditions ("Amendment") becomes effective upon the date of electronic acceptance by the account holder ("Customer"), by and between FV Bank International Inc. ("FV Bank"). This Amendment references and incorporates by this reference the existing Deposit Terms and Conditions ("Original Agreement"), as may be amended from time to time. Except as expressly modified by this Amendment, all terms and conditions of the Original Agreement remain in full force and effect.


1. Foreign Currency Deposits

a. Conversion to USD: When a Customer deposits funds in a currency other than United States Dollars (USD), FV Bank will convert such foreign currency into USD.


b. Determination of Foreign Conversion Rate: The conversion rate ("Foreign Conversion Rate") will be based on a daily rate published by FV Bank, available Monday through Friday, and posted on FV Bank's customer portal. The Foreign Conversion Rate applies to the date the transaction is approved for posting into the Customer's account and not the date received by FV Bank or its correspondents. The posted daily Foreign Conversion Rate is inclusive of any foreign exchange markup determined by FV Bank, which may range from 0% to 2% depending on the foreign currency received.


c. Fee Schedule: The fee schedule, as amended from time to time, will include a one-time fee for enabling foreign currency deposits ("Foreign Deposit Account Enabling Fee") and a fixed fee for processing each deposit in foreign currency ("Foreign Currency Deposits Fee"). The Foreign Deposit Account Enabling Fee and Foreign Currency Deposits Fee shall be disclosed in the fee schedule available on our website, which is located at https://www.fvbank.us/banking-fees
