• No interest will be paid in respect of any period beyond maturity. The Corporation will pay interest on the monies deposited pursuant hereto at the rate of interest as set out on the face of the certificate, except in the event that the monies are withdrawn on a date other than the maturity date at the discretion of the Corporation.
• The certificate is not redeemable prior to maturity except at death of the registered holder.
• The certificate is assignable as collateral, or can be re-registered ($25.00 fee will apply). Transfers in kind are not allowed.
• Unless the Corporation is otherwise notified prior to the close of business on the date of maturity, the Corporation may at its discretion, renew the deposit (principal and unpaid interest, if applicable) for a sixty (60) day Certificate of Deposit at the Corporation's then prevailing rate of interest for that term. If cashed after 30 days but prior to the 60 day maturity date, the 30 day rate in effect at the date of issue will apply.
