CHAPTER IV
Use of the Safe Deposit Box
§ 9
The Customer has the right to use the contents of the Safe Deposit Box at his or her own discretion. The Depositary shall provide the Customer and the Customer’s appointed Representatives with unrestricted access to the Automated Safe Deposit Box, subject to the provisions of the Lease Terms and the Agreement.
§ 10
1. The Customer shall receive a key to the Automated Safe Deposit Box (2 copies) as well as an access card and identification card. They are strictly personal in nature and serve as an identifier.
2. The Customer shall assign a PIN number, which from that moment on will be assigned to his or her electronic card, enabling entry to the Vault room. The PIN number is known only to the Customer. If biometric identification is selected, the Customer’s fingerprints shall also be collected.
3. The Customer shall be obliged to duly store and safeguard the key and the cards referred to in paragraph 1 and to ensure that the PIN number is secure and kept secret.
§ 11
1. Persons entitled to access the Safe Deposit Box and to manage the Deposit shall be the Customer and the Representative, if appointed.
2. The access card provides access to the parking area and opens the doors to the building.
3. The ID card enables authorisation via the SafeT reader at the vestibule door and via the client terminal in the tray room.
4. When an ID card is inserted into the reader on the terminal, the system blocks access to the room for other users.
5. The system permits 3 wrong PIN attempts. In such a case, the client terminal screen will display the following message: ‘Wrong PIN’. After 3 failed attempts, the ID card is blocked.
6. Correct identification at the tray terminal triggers the robot to dispense the box through the terminal.
7. The box access time is limited and is counted from the time of authorisation at the terminal. After the set time has elapsed, the terminal prompts the user to complete the operation. By that time, the Customer should close the box lid manually, then lock it, and then press the Deposit button.
8. If the Customer does not complete the operation correctly (i.e. by closing the box and pressing the Deposit button) and the dedicated time elapses, another message informing about automatic deposit appears and then the box is deposited by the system into the Vault.
9. When a Customer is present in the tray room, it is impossible for another person to enter – the next Customer will see a message on the reader that the terminal is in use.
§ 12
1. The Depositary shall not verify the identity of persons using the Automated Safe Deposit Box as long as they have the access card and the ID card, know the PIN number and have the key to the Automated Safe Deposit Box. Accordingly, the Depositary has no control over the change in the contents of the Automated Safe Deposit Box by the Customer or persons to whom the Customer has provided the cards, the PIN number, and the key. In exceptional circumstances, and in particular in case of suspicion of using an inauthentic key to the Safe Deposit Box, the Depositary shall be entitled to verify and record the identity of the person who opened the Safe Deposit Box. If there is no doubt as to the authenticity of the key to the Safe Deposit Box as well as the access card and the ID card, the Depositary shall not be entitled to deny the holder access to the Safe Deposit Box. Providing access to the Safe Deposit Box to a person using both the card and the key and entering the correct PIN number constitutes proper performance of the Depositary’s obligation.
2. The Depositary is under no obligation or authority to determine whether the Customer owns the items deposited in the Safe Deposit Box.
§ 13
1. The Depositary shall not have a duplicate of the Customer’s key, cannot make a duplicate key to the Automated Safe Deposit Box, and shall not be liable for any damage resulting from the Customer losing or making the key, the access card or the ID card with PIN number available to third parties.
2. The Depositary, including its employees and representatives, shall not have access to the contents of automated safe deposit boxes, except in extraordinary circumstances described in these Lease Terms that warrant Emergency Opening.

§ 14
- If a card is lost, the Customer may request the Depositary by email or by telephone to block access during Business Hours, using a password. If the request is made by phone, the Customer must confirm the request by email within 2 hours. The Depositary will block access to the Safe Deposit Box. The lock will only be removed upon the Customer’s request confirmed by the password established in the presence of the Depositary at the time of signing the Agreement, if such password was assigned.
2. The Customer or a Representative appointed pursuant to the provisions of the Lease Terms who does not possess a key, an access card, an ID card or a PIN number may apply to the Depositary for a new key, access card, ID card or PIN number upon payment of the fees provided for in the Price List.
3. If the Customer has lost the key, the Depositary shall perform the Emergency Opening of the Automated Safe Deposit Box in the Customer’s presence within 7 days of receiving the Customer’s written request together with evidence of payment for the Emergency Opening of the Safe Deposit Box in the amount specified in the Price List. If the fee for the Emergency Opening of a Safe Deposit Box has not been paid in full, the aforementioned time limit shall not run. In such a situation, the time limit begins to run when the payment is credited to the Bank Account or transferred to the Depositary’s Cashier’s Office.
4. In the case described in paragraph 2, the Emergency Opening of the Automated Safe Deposit Box at the Customer’s request and the release of the Deposit shall take place only when the Customer is physically present, unless the Customer expressly stated in the written request for the opening of the Safe Deposit Box that it may take place in the presence of his or her Representative.
§ 15
1. In exceptional situations (other than the reasons described in the Lease Terms) justified in particular by security reasons, access to the Safe Deposit Box may be restricted, in which case the Customer shall be immediately notified. The Customer shall not be entitled to any claim on this account.
2. In the event of non-payment of the fees due in the amount set forth in the Price List, access to the Automated Safe Deposit Box will be suspended. The Customer shall not be entitled to any claim on this account.
§ 16
