1. How to Obtain Electronic Disclosures (E-Disclosures)
If any amendment(s) to this or other agreements result in an adverse effect upon our customers, we will provide at least 30 days prior notice through a secure online message and/or external email alert.
We may also send you an external email notice and/or secure message through the Service to inform you where other important disclosures can be viewed on our website or within the Service.
You may download or print all electronic notices and disclosures from your computer if you have the hardware and software described below. You can also save copies of electronic notices and disclosures to your hard drive or other media for viewing and printing at a later time.
If you have trouble printing or if you need a paper copy for a special situation, you may request a paper copy from us by contacting us through any of the methods listed above. If you need a paper copy of any Edisclosure, we will provide the first copy for free. Charges may apply for additional paper copies.
2. System and Equipment Requirements
Prior to accepting the electronic delivery of disclosures, you should verify that you have the required hardware and software necessary to access the system and retrieve documents and disclosures in an electronic format.
You will need:
Internet Access.
A computer and Internet browser that can support 128-bit encryption.
Adobe Reader software, or a similar utility capable of displaying PDF files.
For security purposes, we support the most current version of popular browsers, such as Microsoft Edge, Mozilla/Firefox, Google Chrome or Apple Safari browser. The most current browser versions are typically more secure and will support 128 bit encryption.
A printer connected to your computer for printing E-disclosures and/or sufficient hard-drive space or other media (e.g. CD, USB drive) if you plan to save disclosures in an electronic format.
An external email address. This is necessary so that we can send you notices when E- disclosures are available on our website or within the Service.
We may revise hardware and software requirements from time-to-time. If there is a material chance that the changes may impact your ability to access the system or E-disclosures, we will notify you of these changes thirty (30) days in advance. At that time, you will be given an opportunity to change the format of your disclosures (e.g. change from an electronic format to paper format) without the imposition of any fees.
3. Cancellation of E-Disclosures
If you consent to receive E-disclosures and later change your mind, you may withdraw your consent and change to paper delivery format.
You can notify us of your intent to cancel E-disclosures by sending us a secure message through the Service, or by contacting us through any of the methods listed above.
If you send us a secure message or write us a letter, please be sure to identify yourself and the applicable accounts.
If you have agreed to receive electronic-only account statements, you can “opt-out” on the “Change Document Delivery Method” page within the Documents section in the Service. After your opt-out request is processed, you will begin receiving paper copies of account statements and additional charges may apply.
4. Address Changes
In order to provide E-disclosures, we must maintain current customer email address at all times. It is your sole responsibility to provide us with your correct contact information, including your email address.
You should notify WesBanco Bank, Inc. of any changes to your personal contact information by calling us at 1-800-905-9043 or you can update your personal information at any of our branch locations.

If you do not want E-disclosures, do not checkmark the box confirming that you agree to the terms within the account opening process. If you do not accept E-disclosures you will not be able to continue with establishing your account relationship online.
As the year ends, charitable giving often surges, driven by both a spirit of generosity and tax considerations. Here are some highlights to consider:
Donate Before Selling
Generally, in order to maximize tax benefits you should transfer your appreciated securities that have been held for more than one year directly to a public charity or donor-advised fund rather than selling the security and donating cash.
Consider Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCD) from Your IRA
Those over 70 ½ year of age are eligible to make up to $105,000 (per person) donation directly from their IRA to qualified charities, which provides a tax-free transfer that also counts toward your required minimum distribution (RMD) without increasing your AGI.
Restricted Stock Rules May Apply
Executives with concentrated and/or restricted positions in public company stock may be able too donate shares to help reduce tax exposures in their portfolios. Generally, restricted stock must be sold in accordance with Rule 144 resale restrictions, so please consult with your tax advisor before making your donation.
Annual Limits Apply to Charitable Deductions
For cash donations made to qualified charities an individual can generally deduct up to 60% of their adjusted gross income (AGI); donating appreciated securities held longer than one year to public charities typically are limited to 30% of AGI; and if your charitable contribution exceeds the AGI limits, you can carry forward the excess amount to future tax years for up to five years.
Donating to charities that align with personal family values at this time of year can be personally rewarding and with some guidance, it can have tax benefits as well. Consult your Private Banker today!
