    1. Eligible Paper Items. You will scan and transmit only “checks” as that term is defined in Federal Reserve Regulation CC (“Reg CC”) and only checks that qualify as eligible Paper Items under this Addendum or such other Paper Items as we, in our sole discretion, elect to include under the service (which shall not establish any sort of course of dealing upon which you may rely in the future). Eligible Paper Items are paper checks (i.e., consumer checks, business checks, corporate checks, money orders, controlled disbursement checks, payable through draft or traveler's checks) drawn on domestic financial institutions that are payable in US dollars and made payable to, and endorsed by (as required herein), you. Any item not considered an Eligible Paper Item is considered an “Ineligible Item.” You warrant that you will not use Mid-Illini Mobile Deposit to deposit any ineligible item including but not limited to any of the following:
        1. Checks or items payable to any person or entity other than you;
        2. Checks or items payable jointly, unless endorsed by all payees and deposited into an account jointly owned by all payees;
        3. Check or items drawn on a financial institution located outside the United States;

        5. S. Treasury checks, U.S. saving bonds, and other non-check items, third-party checks, items drawn in foreign currency, any item without valid routing and account number information, and substitute checks (image replacement documents);
