FDIC Transaction Account Guarantee Program
First National Bank is participating in the FDIC's Transaction Account Guarantee Program. Under that program, through December 31, 2009, all noninterest-bearing transaction accounts are fully guaranteed by the FDIC for the entire amount in the account. Coverage under the Transaction Account Guarantee Program is in addition to, and separate from, the coverage available under the FDIC's general deposit insurance rules.
ADDITIONAL INCREASED INSURANCE COVERAGE
FDIC provides separate insurance coverage for deposits held in different categories of ownership. You may qualify for more than $250,000 in coverage through a combination of First National Bank accounts. The most common ownership categories are:
- Single Accounts
- Certain Retirement Accounts
- Joint Accounts
- Revocable Trust Accounts
BASIC INSURANCE COVERAGE
Deposits maintained in different categories of ownership can also be separately insured. Therefore, it is possible to have deposits of more than $250,000 at one insured bank and still be fully insured. Please see your FNB new accounts representative to discuss the 8 ownership categories recognized by FDIC regulations and the requirements that must be met to have coverage beyond the basic $250,000 amount.

- Checking accounts
- Savings accounts
- Money Market Deposit accounts
