This interpretive rule describes certain payments that are not deemed to be "interest" as defined in § 329.1(c).

(a) Premiums, whether in the form of merchandise, credit, or cash, given by a bank to the holder of a deposit will not be regarded as "interest" as defined in § 329.1(c) if:

(1) The premium is given to the depositor only at the time of the opening of a new account or an addition to, or renewal of, an existing account;

(2) No more than two premiums per deposit are given in any twelve-month interval; and (3) the value of the premium (in the case of merchandise, the total cost to the bank, including shipping, warehousing, packaging, and handling costs) does not exceed $10 for a deposit of less than $5,000 or $20 for a deposit of $5,000 or more.

(b) The costs of premiums may not be averaged.

(c) A bank may not solicit funds for deposit on the basis that the bank will

divide the funds into several accounts for the purpose of enabling the bank to pay the depositor more than two premiums within a twelve-month interval on the solicited funds.

(d) The bank must retain sufficient information for examiners to determine that the requirements of this section have been satisfied.

§ 329.104 Ten-day grace period.

This interpretive rule provides for 10-day grace periods during which interest may be paid o, a deposit without violating § 329.2.

(a) During the ten calendar days following the maturity of a time deposit, the bank may continue to pay interest on the matured deposit at the contract rate of the deposit, or at any lesser rate, if the deposit contract provides for such post-maturity interest. The payment of such post-maturity interest will not be regarded as the payment of interest on a demand deposit.

(b) If a time deposit is renewed within ten calendar days after maturity, the renewed deposit may be dated back to the maturity date of the matured deposit and may draw interest from that date. The payment of such additional interest will not be regarded as the payment of interest on a demand deposit.

(c) If a time or savings deposit is renewed within ten days after expiration of the period of notice given with respect to its repayment, the renewed deposit may draw interest from the date such notice period expired. The payment of such additional interest will not be regarded as the payment of interest on a demand deposit.

§ 330.1 General principles applicable in determining insurance of deposit ac counts.

(a) General. This Part 330 provides for determination by the Corporation of the insured depositors of an insured bank and the amount of their insured deposit accounts. The rules for determining the insurance coverage of de posit accounts maintained by deposi tors in the same or different rights and capacities in the same insured bank are set forth in the following provisions of this part. Insofar as rules of local law enter into such determinations, the law of the jurisdiction in which the insured bank's principal office is located shall govern, except where the insured bank is an insured branch of a foreign bank, in which case the law of the jurisdiction where the insured branch is located shall govern.

(b) Records. (1) The deposit account records of the insured bank shall be conclusive as to the existence of any relationship pursuant to which the funds in the account are deposited and

on which a claim for insurance coverge is founded. Examples would be rustee, agent, custodian or executor. To claim for insurance based on such relationship will be recognized in the bsence of such disclosure.

(2) If the deposit account records of n insured bank disclose the existence f a relationship which may provide a asis for additional insurance, the deails of the relationship and the intersts of other parties in the account must be ascertainable either from the ecords of the bank or the records of he depositor maintained in good faith nd in the regular course of business. (3) [Reserved]

(4) The interests of the co-owners of joint deposit account shall be eemed equal, unless otherwise stated n the insured bank's records in the ase of a tenancy in common.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connecion with pension and other trusteed mployee benefit funds (including hose qualifing under section 401(d) or ection 408(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954), the trust interest of ach participant shall be evaluated for nsurance purposes as if the interest of uch participant had fully vested as of he date the insured bank was closed on account of inability to meet the denands of its depositors.

(3) Each trust interest in any trust established by two or more settlors shall be deemed to be derived from each settlor pro rata to his contribution to the trust.

(4) The term "trust interest" means the interest of a beneficiary in an irrevocable express trust, whether created by trust instrument or statute, but does not include any interest retained by the settlor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any allocable interest created pursuant to an employee benefit plan, including a plan qualified under section 401(d) or section 408(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended, shall be deemed to be a trust interest.

(5) With respect to trust funds held by an insured bank in a fiduciary capacity pursuant to section 7(i) of the Act, the term "trust interest" shall mean the same as the term "trust funds" as used in section 3(p) of the Act.
