Transaction Account Guarantee Program

Georgia Bank & Trust is participating in the FDIC's Transaction Account Guarantee Program. Under that program, through June 30, 2010, 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. Negotiable order of withdrawal accounts (NOW accounts) are not fully guaranteed by the FDIC. NOW accounts are included in the $250,000 insurance coverage per depositor.
