Share Certificate Early Withdrawal Penalty: If the certificate funds other than dividends are withdrawn before the maturity date, there will be a substantial penalty. For certificates with a term of one year or more the penalty is forfeiture of six months dividends; for terms less than one year the forfeiture is one-half of the term dividends whether earned or not. The forfeiture is calculated on the simple interest rate being paid on the certificate regardless of how long the funds withdrawn have remained in the account. The principal amount upon which the forfeiture is calculated is the amount of the initial certificate.
