The
COMPANY, in consideration of payment of the required premium, and in
reliance on the APPLICATION and all other statements made and information
furnished to the COMPANY by the ASSURED, and subject to the DECLARATIONS
made a part of this Bond and to all other terms and conditions of this
Bond, agrees to pay the ASSURED for:
|
|
Insuring
Clauses
|
|
Dishonesty
|
1. A. Employee
Loss
resulting directly from dishonest acts, other than stated in 1.B. below,
of any Employee,
committed alone or in collusion with others except with a director
or trustee of the ASSURED who is not an Employee, which result
in improper personal financial gain to either such Employee or other
natural person acting in collusion with such Employee, or which acts
were committed with the intent to cause the ASSURED to sustain such
loss.
|
B. Trade or Loan
Loss
resulting directly from dishonest acts of any Employee, committed
alone or in collusion with others except with a director or trustee of the
ASSURED who is not an Employee, which arises
totally or partially from:
(1) any Trade, or
(2) any Loan,
provided,
however, the ASSURED shall first establish that the loss was directly
caused by dishonest acts of any Employee which result in
improper personal financial gain to such Employee and which acts
were committed with the intent to cause the ASSURED to sustain such
loss.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, when a loss is covered under this INSURING CLAUSE and the
Employee was
acting in collusion with others and intended to receive improper personal
financial gain, but said Employee failed to
derive such improper personal financial gain, such loss will nevertheless
be covered under this INSURING CLAUSE as if the Employee had obtained
such improper personal financial gain provided that the ASSURED
establishes that the Employee intended to
receive such improper personal financial gain.
|
|
C. Partner
Loss,
in excess of the Financial Interest in the
ASSURED of a Partner, resulting
directly from dishonest or fraudulent acts of such Partner, committed alone
or in collusion with others, which acts must be committed with the
intent:
(1) to cause the
ASSURED to sustain such loss, and
(2) to obtain improper
personal financial gain for such Partner and which acts
in fact result in such Partner obtaining such
gain.
|
|
For
the purpose of this INSURING CLAUSE, improper personal financial gain
shall not include salary, salary increases, commissions, fees, bonuses,
promotions, awards, profit sharing, incentive plans, pensions or other
emoluments received by a Partner or
Employee.
|

2. Loss of Property resulting
directly from:
a. robbery, burglary,
misplacement, mysterious unexplainable disappearance, damage or
destruction, or
b. false pretenses, or
common law or statutory larceny, committed by a natural person while on
the premises of the ASSURED,
while
the Property is
lodged or deposited at premises located anywhere.
Those
premises of depositories maintained by a stock exchange in which the
ASSURED is a member shall be deemed to be premises of the ASSURED but only
as respects loss of Certificated
Securities.
Certificated Securities
held by such depository shall be deemed to be Property to the extent
of the ASSURED'S interest therein as effected by the making of appropriate
entries on the books and records of such depository.
|
In
Transit
|
3. Loss of Property resulting
directly from common law or statutory larceny, misplacement, mysterious
unexplainable disappearance, damage or destruction, while the Property is in transit
anywhere:
a. in an armored motor
vehicle, including loading and unloading thereof,
b. in the custody of a
natural person acting as a messenger of the ASSURED, or
c. in the custody of a
Transportation
Company and being transported in a conveyance other than an armored
motor vehicle provided, however, that covered Property transported in
such manner is limited to the following:
(1) written
records,
(2) Certificated Securities
issued in registered form, which are not endorsed or are restrictively
endorsed, or
(3) Negotiable Instruments
not payable to bearer, which are not endorsed or are restrictively
endorsed.
Coverage
under this INSURING CLAUSE begins immediately on the receipt of such Property by the natural
person or Transportation
Company and ends immediately on delivery to the premises of the
addressee or to any representative of the addressee located
anywhere.
|
Forgery
Or Alteration
|
4. Loss resulting
directly from:
a. Forgery on, or
fraudulent material alteration of, any Negotiable Instrument
(other than an Evidence
of Debt), Acceptance, Withdrawal
Order or receipt for the withdrawal of Property, Certificate of
Deposit or Letter
of Credit, or
b. transferring,
paying or delivering any funds or other Property, or
establishing any credit or giving any value in reliance on any written
instructions to the ASSURED authorizing or acknowledging the transfer,
payment, delivery or receipt of funds or other Property which
instructions fraudulently purport to bear the handwritten signature of any
customer of the ASSURED, financial institution, or Employee, but which
instructions either bear a Forgery or have been
fraudulently materially altered without the knowledge and consent of such
customer, financial institution, or Employee.
For
the purpose of this INSURING CLAUSE, a mechanically reproduced facsimile
signature is treated the same as a handwritten signature.
|
Extended
Forgery
|
5. Loss resulting
directly from the ASSURED having, in good faith, for its own account or
the account of others:
|
a. acquired, sold or

Security,
(2) deed, mortgage or
other instrument conveying title to, or creating or discharging a lien on,
real property,
(3) Evidence of
Debt,
(4) Instruction
which
i. bears a Forgery, or
ii. is fraudulently
materially altered, or
iii. is lost or stolen,
or
b. guaranteed in
writing or witnessed any signature on any transfer, assignment, bill of
sale, power of attorney, or endorsement upon or in connection with any
item listed in a.(1) through a.(4) above, or
c. acquired, sold or
delivered, or given value, extended credit or assumed liability in
reliance on any item listed in a.(1) or a.(2) above which is a Counterfeit
Original.
Actual
physical possession, and continued actual physical possession if taken as
collateral, of the items listed in a.(1) through a.(4) above by the
ASSURED or a Federal or State chartered deposit institution of the ASSURED
is a condition precedent to the ASSURED having relied on such items.
Release or return of such collateral is an acknowledgement by the ASSURED
that it no longer relies on such collateral.
For
the purpose of this INSURING CLAUSE, a mechanically reproduced facsimile
signature is treated the same as a handwritten signature.
|
|
Counterfeit
Money
|
6. Loss resulting
directly from the receipt by the ASSURED in good faith of any counterfeit
Money.
|
Computer
System
|
7. Loss resulting
directly from fraudulent:
a. entries of data
into, or
b. changes of data
elements or programs within,
a
Computer System,
provided the fraudulent entry or change causes:
(1) funds or other
property to be transferred, paid or delivered,
(2) an account of the
ASSURED or of its customer to be added, deleted, debited or credited,
or
(3) an unauthorized
account or a fictitious account to be debited or credited.
|

trust company having received from the ASSURED or the New York Stock
Exchange, specimen copies of the ASSURED'S mechanically reproduced
facsimile signature and having acted in reliance upon any false,
fraudulent or unauthorized reproduction of such facsimile signature,
whether such facsimile signature is the facsimile signature duly adopted
by the ASSURED or is one resembling or purporting to be such facsimile
signature, regardless of by whom or by what means the same may have been
imprinted, and whether or not such loss is sustained by reason of the
ASSURED having entered into an agreement to be legally liable when such
facsimile signature or one resembling or purporting to be such facsimile
signature is used, provided, however, that
a. such facsimile
signature is used
(1) as the signature to
an assignment or other instrument authorizing or effecting the transfer of
shares of stock, or other registered securities, which may now or at any
time hereafter be registered in the name of the ASSURED on the books of
the association, company or corporation issuing the same, or
(2) as the signature to
a power of substitution, designating a substitute or substitutes to make
the actual transfer on the books of the issuer of shares of stock, or
other registered securities, in respect of which the ASSURED may now or at
any time hereafter be named as an attorney to effect said transfer,
whether said power of substitution is embodied in an endorsement on the
certificate for said shares of stock or other registered security or in a
separate instrument, and
b. the New York Stock
Exchange has not interposed any objections to the use by the ASSURED of
such facsimile signature and such agreement, if any, was required by the
said Exchange as a condition to its failing to interpose any such
objections, and
c. this INSURING
CLAUSE 8. shall not apply to any Certificated Security
which is a Counterfeit
Original.

Agreements
|
|
Joint
Assured
|
A. Only the first
named ASSURED shall be deemed to be the sole agent of the others for all
purposes under this Bond, including but not limited to the giving or
receiving of any notice or proof required to be given and for the purpose
of effecting or accepting any amendments to or termination of this Bond.
Each and every other ASSURED shall be conclusively deemed to have
consented and agreed that none of them shall have any direct beneficiary
interest in or any right of action under this Bond and neither this Bond
nor any right of action shall be assignable.
Knowledge
possessed or discovery made by any ASSURED shall constitute knowledge
possessed or discovery made by all of the ASSUREDS for the purposes of
this Bond.
All
losses and other payments, if any, payable by the COMPANY shall be payable
to the first named ASSURED without regard to such ASSURED'S obligations to
others, and the COMPANY shall not be responsible for the application by
the first named ASSURED of any payment made by the COMPANY. If the COMPANY
agrees to and makes payment to any ASSURED other than the one first named,
such payment shall be treated as though made to the first named ASSURED.
The COMPANY shall not be liable for loss sustained by one ASSURED to the
advantage of any other ASSURED.
|
Representations
Made By Assured
|
B. The ASSURED
represents that all information it has furnished in the APPLICATION for
this Bond or otherwise is complete, true and correct. Such APPLICATION and
other information constitute part of this Bond.
The
ASSURED must promptly notify the COMPANY of any change in any fact or
circumstance which materially affects the risk assumed by the COMPANY
under this Bond.
Any
intentional misrepresentation, omission, concealment or incorrect
statement of a material fact, in the APPLICATION or otherwise, shall be
grounds for recision of this Bond.
|
Additional
Offices Or Employees – Consolidation, Merger Or Purchase Or Acquisition Of
Assets Or Liabilities – Notice To Company
|
C. If the ASSURED,
while this Bond is in force, merges or consolidates with, or purchases or
acquires assets or liabilities of another institution, the ASSURED shall
not have the coverage afforded under this Bond for loss which
has:
(1) occurred or will
occur on premises,
(2) been caused or will
be caused by any employee, or
|
(3) arisen or will
arise out of the assets or liabilities, of such institution, unless the
ASSURED:
a. gives the COMPANY
written notice of the proposed consolidation, merger or purchase or
acquisition of assets or liabilities prior to the proposed effective date
of such action, and
b. obtains the written
consent of the COMPANY to extend some or all of the coverage provided by
this Bond to such additional exposure, and
c. on obtaining such
consent, pays to the COMPANY an additional premium.
Notwithstanding
anything stated above to the contrary, the COMPANY hereby agrees to
provide coverage which shall be effective on the date of acquisition under
this Bond for those acquired institutions in which the ASSURED owns
greater than fifty percent (50%) of the voting stock or voting rights
either directly or through one or more of its subsidiaries for the
remainder of the BOND PERIOD, with no additional premium, provided the
acquired institution meets all of the following
conditions:
|
Additional
Offices Or Employees – Consolidation, Merger Or Purchase Or Acquisition Of
Assets Or Liabilities – Notice To Company (continued)
|
i. the assets shall
not exceed ten percent (10%) of the ASSURED'S assets,
ii. there shall be
neither any paid nor pending Bond claim for the three (3) year period
prior to the date of acquisition, and
iii. the ASSURED is not
aware of any disciplinary action or proceeding by State or Federal
officials involving the acquired institution as of the date of
acquisition.
The
COMPANY further agrees that as respects any acquisition that involves a
State or Federal regulatory assisted acquisition or assumption of assets
and/or liabilities, coverage shall be provided under this Bond for the
remainder of the BOND PERIOD as long as conditions i. and ii. above are
met. As respects such acquisition or assumption of assets and/or
liabilities, coverage applies only to a Single Loss fully
sustained by the ASSURED on or after the date of such acquisition or
assumption. All of the circumstances, conditions or acts causing or
contributing to a Single
Loss must occur on or after the date of such acquisition or
assumption for coverage to apply regardless of the time such loss is
discovered by the ASSURED.
|
Change
Of Control – Notice To Company
|
D. The ASSURED shall
notify the COMPANY at the earliest practical moment, not to exceed sixty
(60) days, after the ASSURED learns of a change of control.
There
shall be no coverage under this Bond for any loss involving a Partner or a stockholder
or affiliated group of stockholders that acquires control if such loss
occurs after the date such party acquired control and if notice of such
change in control is not received by the COMPANY within the sixty (60) day
time period.
|
As
used in this General Agreement, control means the power to determine the
management or policy of a controlling holding company or of the ASSURED by
virtue of partnership interest or voting stock ownership. A change in
control, for the purpose of the required notice, means:
(1) a change of
twenty-five (25%) percent in the Financial Interest in the
ASSURED or Partners due to a realignment of such Partners' percentage
interest, or
(2) a change in
ownership of voting stock or voting rights which results in direct or
indirect ownership by a stockholder or an affiliated group of stockholders
of ten (10%) percent or more of such stock or voting
rights
|
Notice
To Company Of Legal Proceedings Against Assured – Election To
Defend
|
E. The ASSURED shall
notify the COMPANY at the earliest practical moment, not to exceed sixty
(60) days after the ASSURED receives notice, of any legal proceeding
brought to determine the ASSURED'S liability for any loss, claim or damage
which, if established, would constitute a collectible loss under this
Bond. Concurrent with such notice, and as requested thereafter, the
ASSURED shall furnish copies of all pleadings and pertinent papers to the
COMPANY.
The
COMPANY may, at it sole option, elect to conduct the defense of all or
part of such legal proceeding. The defense by the COMPANY shall be in the
name of the ASSURED through attorneys selected by the COMPANY. The ASSURED
shall provide all reasonable information and assistance as required by the
COMPANY for such defense.
If
the COMPANY elects to defend all or part of any legal proceeding, the
court costs and attorneys' fees incurred by the COMPANY and any settlement
or judgment on that part defended by the COMPANY shall be a loss under the
applicable INSURING CLAUSE of this Bond. In addition, if the amount
demanded in the legal proceeding is greater than the amount recoverable
under this Bond, or if a DEDUCTIBLE AMOUNT is applicable, or both, the
COMPANY'S liability for court costs and attorney's fees incurred in
defending all or part of such legal proceeding is limited to the
proportion of such court costs and attorneys' fees incurred that the
amount recoverable under this Bond bears to the total of the amount
demanded in such legal proceeding.
If
the COMPANY declines to defend the ASSURED, no settlement without the
prior written consent of the COMPANY or judgment against the ASSURED shall
determine the existence, extent or amount of coverage under this Bond, and
the COMPANY shall not be liable for any costs, fees and expenses incurred
by the ASSURED.
|
Nominees
|
F. Loss sustained by
any nominee organized by the ASSURED for the purpose of handling certain

The
indemnity required from the ASSURED under the terms of this Section
against all loss, cost or expense arising from the replacement of Securities by the

a. for Securities having a
value less than or equal to the applicable DEDUCTIBLE AMOUNT - one hundred
(100%) percent;

value in excess of the applicable DEDUCTIBLE AMOUNT but within the SINGLE

to the value of the Securities;
|

value greater than the applicable SINGLE LOSS LIMIT OF LIABILITY - the

the loss under the COMPANY'S indemnity is sustained.

COMPANY is not required to issue its indemnity for any portion of a loss
of Securities
which is not covered by this Bond, however, the COMPANY may do so as a
courtesy to the ASSURED and at its sole discretion.

ASSURED shall pay the proportion of the COMPANY'S premium charge for the
COMPANY'S indemnity as set forth in Sections 10.a., b., and c. No portion

paid but for the fact that it is in excess of either the SINGLE LOSS LIMIT
OF LIABILITY or AGGREGATE LIMIT OF LIABILITY,
b. second, to the
COMPANY in satisfaction of amounts paid in settlement of the ASSURED'S
claim,
c. third, to the
ASSURED in satisfaction of the applicable DEDUCTIBLE AMOUNT,
and

event of a payment under this Bond, the COMPANY shall be subrogated to the
ASSURED'S rights of recovery against any Depository.

COMPANY will reimburse the ASSURED for the ASSURED'S liability for its
portion of such recovery up to, but not exceeding, the amount of the loss
