(a) One or more banks, Connecticut credit unions or federal credit unions that have established a satellite device or point of sale terminal shall make the satellite device or point of sale terminal available for use (1) by their own customers for such transactions as such banks or credit unions choose to permit for the particular satellite device or point of sale terminal, (2) with respect to a satellite device, for withdrawals, transfers and balance inquiries by customers of any other bank, Connecticut credit union or federal credit union, and (3) with respect to a point of sale terminal, for withdrawals by customers of any other bank, Connecticut credit union or federal credit union. In the case of use pursuant to subdivision (2) or (3) of this subsection, such use shall be conditioned upon payment by each such other bank or credit union of a reasonably proportionate share of all acquisition, installation and operating costs of the satellite device or point of sale terminal. The satellite device or point of sale terminal shall identify with equal prominence all of the network systems which use the satellite device or point of sale terminal. The bank that owns the satellite device shall display its logo on such device. Nothing in this subsection shall be construed to prevent a bank, Connecticut credit union or federal credit union that has established a satellite device or point of sale terminal from offering other services to its own customers or to the customers of any other bank, Connecticut credit union or federal credit union at such device or terminal upon such terms as it shall deem appropriate.
(b) Any bank, Connecticut credit union or federal credit union which has established an automated teller machine which is not a satellite device may permit any other bank, Connecticut credit union or federal credit union to use such automated teller machine, provided if such permission is granted to any other bank, Connecticut credit union or federal credit union, the automated teller machine is made available for use by any other bank, Connecticut credit union or federal credit union, upon payment of reasonably proportionate costs as described under subsection (a) of this section.
