LIFEGREEN CHECKING: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Your account Generally, we track two balances for your account: a posted balance and an available balance.
balance Here’s the difference:
• Posted Balance: The balance in your account on a specific day. It includes all completed
transactions that have been received and processed by us.
• Available Balance: The amount of money in your account that you can use, spend or withdraw. Funds
on hold from checks you have deposited are not available for immediate use. The available balance may
increase or decrease throughout the day as the bank receives or recognizes transactions on your account.
For additional details, please see our Deposit Agreement.
It is important to know your available balance because it determines whether you have enough funds
to pay for a transaction.
You can monitor your account balance through Regions Online and Mobile Banking, at
1-800-REGIONS (734-4667), or at Regions ATMs or branches.
Funds availability* The funds available to you can be affected by the types of deposits you make as well as the time of day in
Understanding which they are made.
when your deposits • Funds from direct deposits, cash deposits, real-time electronic payments or wire transfers are generally
become available available the same day they are deposited to your account when made before the business day cutoff (see
and why there may Business Day Cutoff section below for details).
be holds • In most cases, funds from checks you deposit before cutoff on a business day are available to you
by the next business day. Business days exclude Saturdays, Sundays and federal holidays.
See below for details on business day cutoff.
• However, in some cases, funds may take longer before they are available for your use (up to 11 business
days). If there is a hold on your deposit, we will notify you of when funds will be available.
*Exceptions may apply. Please see the Funds Availability Policy in the Regions Bank Deposit Agreement for complete details.
Pending CheckCard When you use your CheckCard, a hold for the amount of the authorization request will reduce your available
transactions balance while the transaction is pending. The hold is released when the merchant submits
the actual transactions for payment, or up to three business days after the authorization date,
whichever occurs first. Please see the Standard Overdraft Coverage section for information about
how transactions are authorized.
• Note: The actual transaction submitted by the merchant may differ from the amount of the hold based
on the authorization request. A common example of this is the addition of a tip to your restaurant bill.

 TIP: Entering your PIN rather than signing for CheckCard transactions may make it easier to monitor
transactions and balances. Signature-based transactions can take up to three days to post to your
account. PIN-based transactions typically post the same day.
Please see the Managing Your Regions Personal Checking Account document for additional information and examples.

Business day cutoff Transactions made after cutoff time are included in the next business day’s transactions. For example,
a transaction made after cutoff on a Wednesday would be processed as a Thursday transaction.
Business day cutoff times may vary by location or service, but these times generally apply:
• Regular ATMs (non-DepositSmart ATMs): 8 p.m. Central Time
• Branches: Branch closing time
• DepositSmart ATMs®: 8 p.m. Central Time
• Online and Mobile Banking: 8 p.m. Central Time
• Real-time Electronic Payments: 8 p.m. Central Time
If a particular location or payment/deposit service has a different cutoff time, it will be posted at the branch or ATM,
or within the applicable service application.

Posting transactions At the end of each business day, Regions posts (processes) all transactions that have been presented
(These practices subject against your account that day. We start with your available balance, and then we post transactions in this
to change.) way: First, we add deposits and credits that are available to pay transactions. (See above for details on
Funds Availability.) Next, we subtract debits, withdrawals and debit card authorization holds in this order:
• Returned deposited items (items that you deposited that were returned unpaid).
• General debit/withdrawal transactions and debit card authorization holds (holds on card purchases) in
the order we receive them or authorize them, which could be different from the order in which you make
them. Examples of these transactions include wire transfers, electronic ACH debits, internal account
transfers made through Online and Mobile Banking, checks, money sent instantly through Zelle,®* etc.
To help us post items in the correct order, most transactions receive an internal “time stamp” indicating
when our banking systems received them.
• If multiple checks and electronic items have the same time stamp, we will post the electronic
transactions first by low-to-high transaction amount, followed by checks in low-to-high check-number
order. Items without a time stamp will be posted after all other items using the same process.
Exceptions may apply. For more information, please refer to the Regions Deposit Agreement at [Link]/agreements.
*Zelle and the Zelle related marks are wholly owned by Early Warning Services, LLC, and are used herein under license.

LIFEGREEN CHECKING: OVERDRAFT SERVICE OPTIONS
If your available balance is not enough to pay for a transaction when it is presented for payment, overdrafts may occur. Regions has options for the payment of items when your
account does not have sufficient available funds – Regions Overdraft Protection and Standard Overdraft Coverage. Both services may be available to eligible accounts.

Overdraft Protection With Regions Overdraft Protection, your checking account is linked to a funding account, such as
a savings, money market, credit card or even a line of credit.
• If funds are needed in your checking account to cover items presented for payment, we will automatically
transfer available funds from your linked Regions funding account.
• We do not charge a transfer fee for Overdraft Protection transfers.
• Overdraft Protection is also used to authorize CheckCard and ATM transactions in a variety of insufficient
funds situations.
• For Overdraft Protection, you must open a Regions funding account if you do not already have
one and enroll in Overdraft Protection.
 TIP: Overdraft Protection may be less expensive than our Standard Overdraft Coverage.

Standard Overdraft Regions Standard Overdraft Coverage is a service we may provide to cover transactions for a
Coverage $36 per item fee, if you overdraw your account and you do not have Regions Overdraft Protection or you have
exhausted your Overdraft Protection.
• Qualification for this coverage is determined at our discretion based on a variety of factors, including the
account’s balance and overdraft history.
Standard Overdraft Coverage has different applications:
• Provided with your account:
Standard Overdraft Coverage for recurring CheckCard (such as a monthly gym membership), checks and
non-CheckCard transactions.
• Available upon request:
Coverage that can be added to what is already provided with your account for everyday CheckCard
(such as at the grocery store) and ATM transactions in the event of an overdraft.
• In order for Regions to authorize ATM and non-recurring everyday CheckCard transactions in an
insufficient funds situation, you must provide Regions with your permission by electing to “opt in.”
You have the right to change your election at any time.
• You can make your Standard Overdraft Coverage selection by calling 1-800-947-BANK (2265),
at your Regions branch, at most Regions ATMs, or by signing into Online Banking and clicking on the
Customer Service tab.
• If an everyday CheckCard or ATM transaction overdraws your account and you are not opted in,
we will not charge the paid overdraft item fee for that item.
• Note: We reserve the right to require you to pay any overdraft immediately or upon demand. We also reserve
the right not to pay overdrafts. We typically do not pay overdrafts if your account is not in good standing, you
are not making regular deposits, or you have too many overdrafts. For more information, please refer to “What
You Need To Know About Overdrafts and Overdraft Fees,” which you may find online at [Link]/coverage or by
request at your Regions branch.
 TIP: Keeping track of your balance and transactions is the best way to avoid overdrafts.

Fee limits •W e will charge you no more than three (3) Paid Overdraft Item fees per day. When the available balance in
your personal account is overdrawn by $5 or less after end-of-day processing, we will not charge you a Paid
Overdraft Item Fee for items that post that day.
• We offer a one-time refund of the paid overdraft item fee for the first overdraft item occurrence after your
account is opened. Contact your local branch for your overdraft fee refund.
Regions Overdraft Regions Overdraft Grace gives you an opportunity to avoid Paid Overdraft Item Fees if you overdraw
Grace your account. When the available balance in your personal account is overdrawn by more than $5
after nightly processing of items presented on any business day, we will waive Paid Overdraft Item Fees for
that business day if by 8 p.m. Central Time on the next following business day you make a deposit or transfer
funds to your account sufficient to bring your available balance to an amount equal to or greater than
negative $5 (-$5) after nightly processing of items presented on that next following business day.
