in writing.
Stop-Payment Orders. To be effective, a stop-payment order must be received in time
to allow us a reasonable opportunity to act on it, and for some ACH debits must be
received at least three banking days before the scheduled date of transfer. To be
effective, a stop-payment order must identify the payment sufficiently to allow us a

ACH debit and we give notice at the time an oral stop-payment order is received that
written confirmation is required and provide an address where the written confirmation
can be sent, an oral stop-payment order is effective for 14 calendar days only, unless
confirmed in writing within the 14-day period. Properly signed written stop payment
orders are effective for 6 months after date received and will automatically expire after
that period unless renewed in writing. With respect to ACH debits, you and we agree to

contractors to perform or assist in the performance of our responsibilities under this
agreement, as we deem appropriate.

elsewhere described, if any, the following limitations apply:
Regardless of anything else in this or other agreements, transfers and withdrawals from
a savings account to another of your accounts or to third parties by preauthorized,
automatic, telephonic, or computer transfer, or by check, draft, debit card, or similar order
to third parties, cannot exceed six per calendar month or statement cycle of at least four
weeks.
For security reasons, there may be other limitations on the number of transfers you can
make.

time if you fail to comply with these terms or the terms of your account agreements with
us, including any failure to pay a required fee. Either you or we can terminate this
agreement without cause upon 30 days advance notice.
Changes in Terms. We can change these terms by giving you notice as required by
law. Continued use of our internet service by you after notice of a change in terms
constitutes acceptance of the change.
Notices. Notices must be in writing and mailed or hand delivered, except that we can
give them to you electronically if you have so consented. Notices to you are effective
when given, regardless of whether you receive them. Notices to us are effective only
when we actually receive them in writing.
Irreconcilable Conflicts. These terms supersede those of your deposit or loan account
agreements to the extent they cannot be reconciled. You expressly waive any deposit
account agreement requirements of one or more signatures for withdrawal when using
our internet service. Any one of the persons authorized to make withdrawals from your
deposit accounts is authorized to make transfers pursuant to our internet service, even
if your account agreements provide that multiple signatures are required for withdrawal.

charge for our internet service.
We can debit any fees to any of your deposit accounts without notice.

FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONā€™S LIABILITY
Liability for Failure to Make Transfers. If we do not complete a transfer to or from your
account on time and in a correct amount according to our agreement with you, we will
be liable for your losses or damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will not
be liable, for instance:
(1)
If, through no fault of ours, you do not have enough money in your accountto
make the transfer.
(2)
If you have an overdraft line, and the transfer would go over the credit limit.
(3)
If circumstances beyond our control such as interruption of telecommunication
service, catastrophic or emergency conditions, or a natural disaster (such as a
fire or flood) prevent the transfer, despite reasonable precautions that we have
taken.
(4)
If the funds are subject to legal process or other encumbrance restrictingthe
transfer.
(5)
There may be other exceptions stated in our agreement with you.
Except as expressly required by these terms or otherwise required by law, we will not
be liable for any losses or damages resulting from:
(1)
Deficiencies in your computer hardware or software or in your ability or care in
using them, or
(2)
Problems relating to your access to the internet.
CONFIDENTIALITY
We can disclose information to third parties about your account or the transfers you
make:
(1)
Where it is necessary for completing transfers; or
(2)
In order to verify the existence and condition of your account for a third party,
such as a credit bureau or merchant; or
(3)
In order to comply with government agency or court orders; or
(4)
As explained in our separate privacy disclosures.
UNAUTHORIZED TRANSFERS
Consumer Liability. Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your code has been lost or stolen,
or if you believe that an electronic fund transfer has been made without your permission
using information from your check. Telephoning 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 you tell us within 2 business days after you learn of the loss or theft of
your code, you can lose no more than $50 if someone uses your code without your
permission.
If you do NOT tell us within 2 business days after you learn of the loss or theft of your
code, and we prove we could have stopped someone from using your code without your
permission if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.
Also, if your statement shows transfers that you did not make, tell us at once. If you do
not tell us within 60 days after the statement was mailed to you or was provided
electronically if you consented to receiving the statement that way, you may not get back
any money you lost after the 60 days if we can prove that we could have stopped
someone from taking the money if you had told us in time.
If a good reason (such as a long trip or a hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we will
extend the time periods.
Contact in Event of Unauthorized Transfer. If you believe your code has been lost or
stolen, call or write us at the telephone number or address listed below. You should also
call the number or write to the address listed below if you believe a transfer has been
made using the information from your check without your permission.
ERROR RESOLUTION NOTICE
In Case of Errors or Questions About Your Electronic Transfers, Call or Write us at the
telephone number or address listed below, as soon as you can, if you think your
statement or receipt is wrong or if you need more information about a transfer listed on
the statement or receipt. We must hear from you no later than 60 days after we sent you,
or provided electronically to you if you consented to receipt that way, the FIRST
statement on which the problem or error appeared.
(1)
Tell us your name and account number (if any).
(2)
Describe the account error or the transfer you are unsure about, and explain as
clearly as you can why you believe it is an error or why you need more
information.
(3)
Tell us the dollar amount of the suspected error.
If you tell us orally, we may require that you send us your complaint or question in writing
within 10 business days.
We will determine whether an error occurred within 10 business days (20 business days
if the transfer involved a new account) after we hear from you and will correct any error
promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days (90 days if the
transfer involved a new account, a point of sale transaction, or a foreign- initiated
transfer) to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit
your account within 10 business days (20 business days if the transfer involved a new
account) for the amount you think is in error, so that you will have the use of the money
during the time it takes us to complete our investigation. If we ask you to put your
question or complaint in writing and we do not receive it within 10 business days, we
may not credit your account. Your account is considered a new account for the first 30
days after the first deposit is made, unless each of you already has an established
account with us before this account is opened.
We will tell you the results within three business days after completing our investigation.
If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation.
You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.

1.3
Payment Services
A.
General Terms Applicable to Payments
i.
Your responsibilities: You authorize us to remove funds from your designated Pay From account for all
payments that you initiate and you agree to have sufficient available funds on the Send On date or
Payment date for each such payment you schedule. If there are insufficient available funds to cover a
Current Day payment, we will not retry the payment and it will be immediately rejected. If sufficient funds
are not in your account to cover a Current Day payment, we will not retry the transaction and the transfer
will be immediately rejected. In the case of Future Dated payment, if sufficient funds are not in your
account on the Send On or Payment date we may reject the request. In the alternative, if sufficient
available funds are not in your account on the Send On date or Payment date, the payment request will be
Cancelled. We will send you a secure email message advising you of the failed attempt to debit your Pay
From account. You agree that we may, at our option, follow your Instructions to make payments to a
named Payee, even though a charge to or a debit from your Pay From account may cause you to exceed
your credit limit, or bring about or increase an overdraft. In the event of an overdraft to your Pay From
account, we may charge any other of your accounts for the amount of the overdraft. However, no overdraft
or NSF fee will be charged if this is a consumer account.
ii.
WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY CHARGES IMPOSED, OR ANY OTHER ACTION, BY A
PAYEE RESULTING FROM A LATE PAYMENT, INCLUDING ANY APPLICABLE FINANCE CHARGES
AND/OR LATE FEES UNLESS WE CAUSE PROCESSING DELAYS THAT CAUSE YOUR PAYMENT
TO BE LATE.
B.
Bill Payments
Bill Payment can be used to make one-time or repeating payments to companies, merchants or individuals you
have designated as a Payee to pay bills such as rent, utilities, or car payments (the "Bill Payment"). This can
include us for payments to SBIC Loan or Credit Accounts. You must have an eligible checking account, SBIC
Liquid Card, AMA, investment account, or line of credit account with us in order to make bill payments.
i.
Description of Services: To make Bill Payments, you must maintain an eligible checking account with us
and designate one of your eligible accounts with us as your Pay From account. You may select Payees
located within the United States to pay using Bill Payment, subject to our and the Payee's approval with
the following exceptions: you agree not to use Bill Payment to pay Payees to whom you are
obligated for tax payments, payments made pursuant to court orders, fines, payments to loan
sharks, gambling debts or payments otherwise prohibited by law. The minimum Bill Payment allowed
is normally $.01. The maximum single dollar amount is $10,000.00 and a total dollar amount of all
payments is $20,000.00 in the aggregate attributable to any Business Day. To use Bill Payments you
must provide sufficient information online to us to properly identify your Payees, direct your payment and
permit the Payee to identify you as the payment source upon receipt of a payment. You must complete all
required fields with accurate information, as directed by screen messages. By providing us with the names
and account information of those Payees to whom you wish us to direct payment, you authorize us to
follow the Instructions that we receive through Bill Payments. You further authorize us to update or
change any of your Payee information as requested or provided by your Payee. When we receive a
payment Instruction (for the current or a future date), we will send funds to the Payee on your behalf, from
the funds in your Pay From account. You authorize us to charge your designated Pay From account for all
payments that you authorize through the Bill Payments. We and any agent used by us in connection with
the Bill Payment Service is authorized to prepare Drafts drawn on your Pay From account and/or
electronically debit your Pay From account for the purpose of making payments. We are authorized to
accept any Draft drawn on the Pay From account on presentment and charge the Pay From account even
though it does not bear your signature where such Draft has been issued as part of Bill Payments. Such
Drafts may originate from us or any financial institution in the United States used by us or any of our
agents.
ii.
Because your payment Instructions are transmitted to us on your computer, the payment will not be sent
to your Payee with the Payee's payment stub. Payments received without the payment stub are
sometimes processed at a different location. Some Payees may take longer to post the payment to your
account if the payment stub is not included with the payment, although federal regulations may limit
certain creditors (such as credit card issuers) to a period of up to five (5) days. For this reason, we
recommend that you contact your Payees to ensure that you have the right address and that you schedule
payments in sufficient time to allow for your payment to be sent to your Payee and the payment to be
posted.
iii.
Delivery Method: We remit two types of payments on your behalf to your Payees - electronic and paper
check, depending on your Payees determined method of receiving payments. The Delivery Method and
lead time expected for each type of payment your Payee will ordinarily receive will be indicated on screen
when your payment is scheduled.
The Delivery Method for a Payee is subject to change. If a Payee no longer accepts electronic payments,
or the payment encounters delivery errors, payments to that Payee will be delivered by paper check and
the Send On Date will be changed to five (7) Business Days before the Deliver By date for all subsequent
payments and for the most current if the Payee provides us with sufficient notice. If a Payee begins
accepting electronic payments, payments to that Payee will be processed electronically and the Send On
date will be changed accordingly for all subsequent payments. In addition, if an electronic payment is
undeliverable the payment may be resubmitted by check. We will notify you via e-mail of a change to a
Delivery Method for Pending payments you have scheduled if that change results in a Delivery Method
that increases the delivery time of your payment, otherwise you will not be notified of Delivery Method
changes. Please note that, in some situations, if a payment is scheduled to be sent electronically to a
Payee who can no longer process payments using the Delivery Method in which it was sent, then that
payment may be late and we will not be responsible for any associated late charges that might be incurred
as a result.
iv.
While it is anticipated that most transactions will be delivered by the Deliver By date, it is understood that
due to circumstances beyond our control, particularly delays in handling and posting payments by slow
responding companies or financial institutions, some transactions may take a few days longer to be
credited by your Payee to your Payee account. FOR THIS REASON, YOU NEED TO SELECT A
DELIVER BY DATE WHICH IS SUFFICIENTLY IN ADVANCE OF THE ACTUAL DUE DATE (NOT THE
LATE DATE) OF YOUR PAYMENT OBLIGATION TO ENSURE THAT YOUR PAYMENT ARRIVES ON
OR BEFORE YOUR DUE DATE AND NOT AFTER THE DUE DATE OR DURING THE GRACE PERIOD.
v.
Canceling Bill Payments: You may cancel any Pending or Funded bill payment if you do so no later than
the Cutoff Time, on the Send On Date. Funds will be returned to your Pay From account by the following
Business Day. You may not stop a bill payment after the Cutoff Time has passed.
C.
Duplicate Payments
If you submit a duplicate Bill Payment request, an error message may be displayed on our website but you may
choose to bypass the message and schedule the payment. If you submit a duplicate payment to SBIC Loan or
Credit Account, an error message may be displayed and such duplicate payments may not be permitted. No error
message will be displayed for duplicate payments made through different methods (e.g., Bill Pay and PFM) and the
payments will be processed as normal.
D.
Stale Dated Payments
Paper checks which may be issued to your Payees are not negotiable after the designated period noted on the
check, usually 90 days. Occasionally, paper check payments are not cashed by your Payee within the negotiable
period. Your account will not be debited until the check has been presented. We have no liability to you, your
Payee or any other party for refusing payment on any check that remains outstanding after the end of the
negotiable period.
E.
Merchant or Payee Limitation
We reserve the right to refuse to pay any Payee whom you may designate for a payment. We will notify you
promptly if we decide to refuse to pay a Payee designated by you. This notification is not required if you attempt to
pay tax or court related payments or payments to Payees located outside the United States, each of which is
prohibited under this Agreement.
2.
ADDITIONAL TERMS APPLICABLE ONLY TO PAYMENTS AND TRANSFERS FOR CONSUMER
ACCOUNTS
A consumer account is one that is used primarily for personal, family or household purposes.
2.1
Your Liability for Unauthorized Transfers or Payments
If you permit other persons to use Payments and Transfers or your Password, you are responsible for any
transactions they authorize from your accounts. If you believe that your Password has been lost or stolen or
that someone has made payments, transferred or may transfer money from your account without your
permission, notify us AT ONCE, by calling 1-877-707-1995 or by visiting our nearest branch location.
Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your Password has been lost or stolen or that an unauthorized online transfer or
payment has been made from any of your deposit accounts . Telephoning us is the best and fastest way of keeping
your possible losses to a minimum. If you do not do so, you could lose all the money in each of the accounts, as
well as all of the available funds in any credit line included among your accounts. If you tell us within two (2)
Business Days after you discover the loss or theft, you are completely
covered if someone makes a transfer or payment without your authorization.
If you do not tell us within two (2) Business Days after you discover the loss or theft of your Password or that an
unauthorized online transfer or payment has been made from any of your deposit accounts, and we can prove we
could have stopped someone from making a transfer or payment without your authorization if you had told us, you
could lose as much as $500. Furthermore, if any account statement shows online transfers or payments that you
did not make, tell us AT ONCE. If you do not tell us within sixty (60) days after a statement showing such a transfer
or payment was transmitted to you, you may not get back any money you lost after the sixty (60) days if we can
prove that we could have stopped someone from taking the money if you had told us in time.
If a good reason, such as a long trip or hospital stay, kept you from telling us, we will extend the time periods.
2.2
Our Liability for Failure to Complete Payments and Transfers
If we do not complete a transfer or payment to or from a consumer deposit account or SBIC Liquid Card in the
correct amount or according to our agreement with you, we will be liable for those damages as the law imposes in
such cases. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for example:
A. If, through no fault of ours, your account does not contain sufficient funds to make the transfer or payment
and the transfer or payment would exceed any credit line for suchaccount.
B. Your operating system or software was not functioning properly at the time you attempted to initiate such
transfer or payment and it was evident to you at the time you began the transfer orpayment.
C. Circumstances beyond our control, such as fires, floods, acts of God, power outages and the like.
D. The Payee or, for Payments and Transfers from an External Account, the third party financial institution
holding your account, mishandles or delays processing or posting a payment or transfer sent by Payments
and Transfers.
E. If you have not provided us with complete and correct payment or transfer information, including without
limitation the financial institution name, address, account number, transfer amount for a transfer or
payment amount for the Payee on a payment.
The list of examples set out in this paragraph is meant to illustrate circumstances under which we would not be
liable for failing to make a transfer or payment and is not intended to list all of the circumstances where we would
not be liable.
2.3
Errors and Questions about Payments and Transfers
In case of errors or questions about your electronic payments or transfers to or from your consumer deposit
accounts you should telephone or write us as soon as you can, at the address or phone number set forth in the
section above entitled "Your Liability for Unauthorized Transfers or Payments" if you think that your statement is
wrong or you need more information about a transfer or payment listed on the statement. We must hear from you
no later than sixty (60) days after we sent you the FIRST statement on which the problem or error appeared.
ā€¢
Tell us your name and the account number(s) of the account(s) involved.
ā€¢
Describe the error or the transfer or payment you are uncertain about, and explain as clearly as you can
why you believe it is an error or why you need more information.
ā€¢
Tell us the dollar amount of the suspected error.
If you tell us in person or by telephone, we may require that you send us your complaint or question in writing within
ten (10) Business Days.
We will give you the results of our investigation within 10 Business Days (or 20 Business Days if your account was
opened less than 30 days prior to the date of the suspected error) after we hear from you. If we have made an
error, we will correct it promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days (or 90 days if your
account was opened less than 30 days prior to the date of the suspected error) to investigate your complaint or
question. If we decide to do this, we will credit the account in question within 10 Business Days (or 20 Business
Days if your account was opened less than 30 days prior to the date of the suspected error) for the amount you
think is in error, so that you will have the use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation.
Such crediting is referred to as a provisional credit. If we ask you to put your complaint or question in writing and
we do not receive it within 10 Business Days, we may not provisionally credit the account(s) that was the subject of
your complaint. If the transaction complained of involves an account that is subject to margin requirements or is
otherwise covered by Regulation T of the Federal Reserve Board, we will not provisionally credit the account
involved.
We will tell you the results within three business days after completing our investigation. If we find there was no
error, we will send you a written explanation within three (3) Business Days after we finish our investigation. You
may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation. If we provisionally credit your account, we
may take back the amount of any credit if we find that an error did not occur.
In case of errors or questions about your electronic transfers that appear on your External Account statements,
please contact the financial institution that provided such statement to you in accordance with the terms and
conditions of your External Account.

Authorization to Transfer Funds Using People Pay Service

right and authority to all the funds on deposit therein. In addition, I authorize SBIC to execute and charge my Eligible
State Bank of India (California) Account(s) for any People Pay Service transfer request, including any related fees,
subject to any applicable limits as to dollar amount and time to complete transfers, when my People Pay Service
transfer requests are made in accordance with the procedures established by SBIC. I understand and acknowledge
that SBIC has no obligation to execute any request for a transfer using the People Pay Service that is not initiated in
accordance with such procedures. I further acknowledge that the acceptance and processing of a People Pay
transfer request is subject to the terms and conditions stated in this Agreement, as amended from time to time. This
authorization shall remain in full force and effect until I have informed you either: (i) by revoking my authorization at
Consumer Online Banking or (ii) by telephone at 1-877-707-1995 (or the phone number on the back of my SBIC
ATM/debit card) that I have revoked my authorization and you have a reasonable opportunity to act on it.
Information Relied Upon by State Bank of India (California)
I acknowledge and agree that SBIC is relying upon the information I provide in originating a People Pay Service
transfer on my behalf. Any errors in the information, including incorrect or inconsistent Recipient names, email
addresses, mobile phone numbers or account numbers or the Recipient's financial institution's ABA number or name,
as well as providing incorrect information in connection with transfer from other persons to my account are my
responsibility. I understand and agree that if People Pay Service transfer instructions identify an account by name
and account number, the relevant financial institution may execute those instructions by reference to the account
number only, even if such number does not correspond to the name. I understand that financial institutions holding
the account may not investigate discrepancies between names and numbers. In addition, I agree that SBIC has no
responsibility to investigate discrepancies between names and account numbers.
Limited Power of Attorney
In connection with any request to transfer funds using the People Pay Service, I hereby give SBIC a limited power of
attorney and appoint SBIC as my true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent, with full power of substitution and re-
substitution, for you and in your name, place and stead, in any and all capacities, to originate deposits into or
withdrawals from my accounts, with full power and authority to do and perform each and every act and thing requisite
and necessary to be done in connection with effecting such funds transfers, verifying the content and authenticity of
any People Pay Service transfer instruction, complying with all applicable security procedures applicable to such
transfers, as fully to all intents and purposes as I might or could in person. Once SBIC has actual knowledge that I
wish to cease using the People Pay Service as provided in this Agreement or as otherwise permitted in this
Agreement and has a reasonable opportunity to act on such knowledge and to complete any pending transfers, this
limited power of attorney shall be deemed revoked; provided, however, that any act done by SBIC in good faith
before you have actual knowledge of termination by me and a reasonable opportunity to act on such knowledge shall
be deemed to be authorized by me. I understand and agree that at all times my relationship with the financial
institution (other than SBIC) that maintains an account to which I am requesting a transfer or from which a transfer to
me is being requested is independent of SBIC and my use of the People Pay Service. I shall not hold SBIC
responsible for any acts or omissions by the financial institution maintaining such an account, including without
limitation any modification, interruption or discontinuance of it. I ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT WHEN SBIC
ORIGINATES A REQUEST FOR A TRANSFER USING THE PEOPLE PAY SERVICE, SBIC IS ACTING AS MY
AGENT. I AGREE TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS SBIC AS MY AGENT UNDER THIS LIMITED POWER
OF ATTORNEY AS MORE FULLY DESCRIBED BELOW.
Security Procedures
I agree that SBIC will initiate a request from me to send money using the People Pay Service only after I access my
Eligible State Bank of India (California) Account(s) through Consumer Online Banking. I further agree to provide any
additional password that may be assigned to or selected by me that is required in connection with a request to
transfer funds using the People Pay Service including receiving alert for submission of the transaction. SBIC shall not
be liable for any delay in processing my People Pay Service transfer request if I fail to comply with this security
procedure (or any other that may be established by SBIC from time to time). I acknowledge and agree that SBIC has
established commercially-reasonable security procedures for the People Pay Service. I understand that the security
procedure is designed to authenticate my identity before accepting a request for a People Pay Service transfer and
not to detect errors in the content of my instruction.
Processing People Pay Transfer Requests
I understand and agree that when I request Standard Delivery of funds from an Eligible State Bank of India
(California) Account using the People Pay Service, the processing of the transfer will begin and the debiting of my
Eligible State Bank of India (California) Account will occur, as early as the Business Day of my request. However, the
funds will be transferred into the Recipient's account no earlier than the next Business Day, for Next Day Delivery, or
the third Business Day, for Standard Delivery after I have made the request. If I request a one-time transfer with a
specified date then the processing of the transfer will begin, and the debiting of my account will occur, as early as the
date specified. However, the funds will be transferred into the Recipient's account no earlier than the next Business
Day, and may be longer depending on the recipientā€™s acceptance. In addition, in the case of all Two-Step Transfers,
the deposit of the funds into the Recipient's account (even if withdrawn from my Eligible State Bank of India
(California) Account) will be delayed if the Recipient has not provided the People Pay Service with certain required
information. I hereby authorize SBIC and the People Pay service to communicate via email from time to time, on my
behalf and at their discretion in my name (including utilizing the email address that I supply to or designate for use by
the People Pay service) to the Recipients of my transfers to (1) notify Recipients of pending transfers from me, (2)
request by information from the Recipient that is necessary or appropriate to complete the transfer and (3) to remind
a Recipient that action must be taken to complete a transfer and any and all other notices relevant to an intended
Recipient of a People Pay transfer. I understand and agree that in the case of a Two-Step Transfer my request to
transfer funds to a Recipient will not be completed until the information requested from a Recipient is provided. If the
information is not provided within 10 calendar days (or such other time period as SBIC may select), then the transfer
request may be cancelled and the funds returned to my Eligible State Bank of India (California) Account.
Types of People Pay Transfers
Standard Delivery. Funds may be delivered as soon as 3 Business Days from the date of my request when
requested by within the timelines described within the Section titled Processing People Pay Transfer Requests.
Next Day Delivery. Funds may be delivered as soon as the next Business Day from the date of my request when
requested within the timeline described within the section titled Processing People Pay Transfer Requests. Important
Limitation: In order to perform a Next Day People Pay Transfer, the available balance in my Eligible State Bank of
India (California) Account at the time of my request must exceed the amount of the requested transfer.
I understand that both types of transfers and the timelines referenced within this Agreement do not guarantee when a
Recipient will receive payment through a People Pay transfer. All transfers are subject to when funds are made
available by the Recipient's financial institution.
Limits on People Pay Transfers
The following limits on transfer amounts are calculated against all transfers which include People Pay transfers that
have been set up but not been processed and those that have been completed.
Single Limit Daily Limit
Account-to-Account (ACH)
500.00
1,000.00
People Pay: Total Limit*
500.00
1000.00
* Transfers requested on a Saturday or Sunday contribute to my transfer limit for the following Monday. A transfer
requested on a bank holiday contributes to my transfer limit for the next Business Day.
IMPORTANT: We may permit transfers in excess of these limits from time to time, based on our loss experience,
security issues and other factors. We also may deny or limit specific transfers if we have any reason to question the
authorization for, or security of, the transaction and as further described within.
Receiving People Pay Transfers
When I am the intended Recipient of a People Pay Service transfer into an account I have at SBIC, I authorize the
deposit of funds into the Eligible State Bank of India (California) Account I designate, either for the receipt of a single
transfer or, if I choose the Automatic Deposit feature, for all transfers directed to me through the People Pay Service.
I understand and agree that there may be a delay between the time I am notified of the pending transfer and the
deposit of the funds into my account. I authorize the sender, the financial institution which holds the sender's account
and the People Pay Website to send emails and SMS text messages to me in connection with the sender's request to
transfer funds to me. I understand and agree that in the case of a Two-Step Transfer if I do not provide the requested
information within a certain period of time, the requested transfer will be cancelled and the funds returned to the
sender.
In the event that funds are transferred into my Eligible State Bank of India (California) Account as a result of a People
Pay transfer and it is determined that such transfer was improper because it was not authorized by the sender or
there were not sufficient funds in the sender's account or for any other reason, then I hereby authorize SBIC to
withdraw from my SBIC account an amount equal to the amount of funds improperly transferred to me.
Service Fees and Charges
I understand and agree that I am responsible for paying all fees associated with my use of the People Pay Service. I
authorize SBIC to charge my Eligible State Bank of India (California) Account (or any other of my accounts at SBIC)
for any service or other fees and charges applicable to transfers requested through the People Pay Service in
accordance with SBIC's fee schedule in effect at the time I make a People Pay Service transfer request. SBIC
reserves the right to change the fees charged for the use of the People Pay Service. A copy of the Fee Schedule for
the People Pay Service is provided at the end of the Agreement.
Processing People Pay Transfers
Standard Transfers. SBIC will process my request for a Standard transfer on the current Business Day if requested
by 7:30 PM PT of that Business Day. If my request is received by SBIC on a day that is not a Business Day or on a
Business Day after the established cut-off time, SBIC will not process my request until the next Business Day.
Actions Taken Upon an Unsuccessful People Pay Transfer
When I request a transfer from an Eligible State Bank of India (California) Account using the People Pay Service, the
transfer may not be completed for various reasons. If I have not provided complete and accurate required information
regarding the Recipient, the People Pay Service cannot complete the Transfer. If I fail a verification of my identity that
is required in connection with scheduling a People Pay transfer, my requested transfer will be placed on hold, and if I
do not call SBIC at 1-877-707-1995 or take other prescribed actions within the prescribed time frames to remove the
hold, the transaction will be cancelled.
If I do not have sufficient funds in my Eligible State Bank of India (California) Account from which I have requested a
transfer be made, the transfer will not be completed. I understand and agree that after an initial failure due to non-
sufficient funds in my Eligible State Bank of India (California) Account, the transfer process will be attempted a
second time. If there again are non-sufficient funds in my Eligible State Bank of India (California) Account, my
requested transfer will be cancelled.
Rejection of a People Pay Transfer Request
You reserve the right to reject my funds People Pay Service transfer request. You may reject my request if the dollar
value of one or more of my transfer requests exceed any of my transfer limits (as more fully described above), if I
have insufficient available funds in my Eligible State Bank of India (California) Account for the amount of the People
Pay Service transfer, plus any applicable fee, if my request is incomplete or unclear, if you identify a security risk
related to a requested transfer or if you are unable to fulfill my request for any other reason. I understand and agree
that if you reject a request for a People Pay Service transfer for one or more of the reasons set forth above, I will be
informed of the rejection during my online session or by e-mail as soon thereafter as you have determined to reject
the request.
Cancellations, Amendments or Recalls of a People Pay Transfer Request
I may cancel or amend a People Pay transfer request only if you receive my request prior to the initiation of the ACH
transfer into the Recipient's account and at a time that provides you with a reasonable opportunity to act upon that
request. If my request to cancel or amend a People Pay transfer is received after such transfer has been processed
by SBIC, I understand and agree that my request to stop payment, recall or amend my People Pay transfer will be
effective only with the voluntary consent of the Recipient's financial institution. If the Recipient's bank confirms that
the funds are returnable and agrees to do so, once the funds are returned to you, you will return the funds to me. The
amount that is returned to me may be less than I originally transferred because the entire amount transferred may not
be available for return and/or service charges of the Recipient's bank and/or SBIC.
Delays, Non-Execution of Funds Transfer Request
I agree that SBIC shall not be responsible for any delay, failure to execute, or misexecution of my funds transfer
request due to circumstances beyond SBIC's reasonable control - including, without limitation, any inaccuracy,
interruption, delay in transmission, or failure in the means of transmission of my funds transfer request to the bank or
execution of such request by the bank, whether caused by strikes, power failures, equipment malfunctions, or acts or
omissions of any intermediary bank or beneficiary bank. SBIC MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED -
INCLUDING THE FAILURE OF ANY INTERMEDIARY BANK OR MY RECIPIENT'S BANK TO CREDIT MY
RECIPIENT WITH THE AMOUNT OF THE FUNDS TRANSFER AFTER RECEIPT OF SAME.

access credentials for online banking or an unauthorized People Pay Service transfer or other type of online
transaction has been made from one of my accounts, I must notify you immediately by telephone at 1-877-707-1995
(or the phone number on the back of my SBIC ATM/debit card) or, if I am unable to telephone you, in writing to: State
