(1) Your monthly service charge will be reduced by the amount of your earnings credit. The earnings credit will be calculated on the Average Collected Balance for the month, less the 10% reserve requirement. The earnings credit rate is based on the average 90-Day Treasury Bill yield for the previous month.

(2) There are federal regulations limiting the types of businesses that can have a NOW account. Entities organized to make a profit such as corporations, partnerships, associations or other organizations may not maintain NOW accounts.
