(the "Account'} The Account allows you to make purchases by usmg your VISA or MasterCard card (the "Card") wherever It IS honored and to gel cash advances from us or any other participating
finarlClallnstllulion and from Automated Teller Machines. Convenience checks may also be provided to you as an additional way to use the Account In thiS Agreement, "you" and "yaw" mean
each person for whom we have opened a credit card Account "VVe," "our," "ours," and "us" mean Provldlan National Bank or Its assignees, ~s listed on xour billing statement. The Accoun! may be
used only for personal, family, household, and charitable purposes, and not for any business or commercial purpose. Any use of thiS Account shall constitute acceptance of the terms of thiS
AgrE!ement. You and we agree as follows:
Payments. You will receive a monthly statement shOWing your outstanding balance, Payment on thiS Account is required in U.S, dollars (checks must be payable at a U.S office of the bank the
cheCk IS drawn on) for at least the payment due as shown on your statement by the payment due date In accordance With payment instructions on your monthly statement. The back of your

on any other account you have With us or our affiliates. The payment due Will be_ 2% of the new balance shown on your statement plus th~ amount of any past due payment, and may Include the
amount by which the new balance exceeds your credit line, However the payment due Will not be less than $15 (unless your new balance _'s less than $15, In whIch case the payment due wl!1 be
the amount of the new balance), If your Account is past due or above the credit Ime, we may require a higher minimum payment, but we Will notify you before domg so. If your payment IS more than
the payment due" It will be treated as a smgle payment and none of it will be applied to future payments due_ We may accept late or partial payments, or payments marked "paid m full" or marked
With other restrictions, Without losing our right to collect all amounts owing under this Agreement
Finunce Charges. Except as described in the Grace Period for Purchase Balance section of thIS Agreement, finance charges begin to accrue ~ a debit when it is included in one of your daily
balances and contmue until that balance is reduced by a payment or credit, Your Account has the follOWing balances: The Purchase Balance, which consists of your eXisting Purchase Balance
and new purchases you make with your Card and fees for certal[] optional services; one or more Custom Cash Advance Balances, which consists of balances that you transfer to your Account
uSing balance transfer checks and balances that we transfer for you: and the Cash Advance Balance which consists of all other cash advances and cash advance transaction fees, Any payment
amount we receive that exceeds the finance charges and fees then due Will ordinanly be applied first to the Balance With the lowest Annual Percentage. Rate (AP~), until that Sala.nce IS zero, and
theh to the Balance With the next lowest APR, until that Balance IS zero, and then to any remaining Balance, We reserve the fight to apply payments differently Without further notice
The Purchase, Custom Cash Advance, and Cash Advance Balances are reduced by payments as of the date received, and by credits as of the date postedo: Purchases are included in your
Purchase Balance as of the date made_ Custom cash advances are mcluded In your Custom Cash Adva~ce Balance as follows: funds electronically transmitted to other lenders to transfer
bali3nces, as of the date transmilled; checks to transfer balances, as of the date presented to us_ Other cash advances are included in y~ur Cash Advance ~alance as follows: cash advances
frorn other financial Institutions and through Automated Tellers, as of the date made; cash advance checks made payable to you that are Identified as cashiers checks and mailed to you at your
request, as of seven days after the date we print on the check; all other checks, as of the date presented to us. Other debits are included In your Purchase, Custom Cash Advance, or Cash
Advance Balance as of the date posted. Finance charges are added to your Purchase, Custom Cash Advance, and Cash Advance Balances each day and are then posted on the last day of the
billing cycle, There is no grace period for custom cash advances or other cash advances
To figure the daily finance charge for each type of Balance, we start with your previous day's Balance, add all debits and subtract all credits for the current day and multiply the net amount by the
applicable daily periodic rate (see following paragraphs)_ The finance charge for each. type of Balance is then added to and Included In that day's Balance. W~ treat a c~€:dit balance for any d~y as
zero, We determine the total finance charges on balances for the billing cycle by adding together the finance charges for each type ~f Balance fc:r each day wlthm the billing ?ycle. In calculatll1g
finance charg,es, an adjustment will be made for any transaction or payment that would have affected the finance charge c?lculatlon In a prior billing cycle had It been posted In that cycle. The
apPlicable dally pen odic rate for such a transaction will be the rate in effect for the current billing cycle rather than the rate In effect on the date of 1he transaction
Your statement includes an average daily balance for each type of Balance. You can multiply each average daily balance that is not zero by the number of days in the billing cycle and the periodic
rate to obtam subtotals, and then add the subtotals together to determine your total finance charges on balances for the billing cycle.
The term "Prime Rate" as used in the Agreement means the highest prime rate published in the WaJl Street_Journal on the first business day of the previous calendar month_ Any increase or
detrease In the Annual Percentage Rate will take effect on the first day of your billing cycle and may result In a slight increase or decrease in the amount of your minimum payment.
The ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE (APR) for purchases is 21.9%, corresponding to a daily periodic rate of 0.06000%.
The ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE for cash advances is 21.9%, corresponding to a daily periodic rate of 0.06000%.
We reserve the right to change the Annual Percentage Rate calculations if you do not comply with the terms of this Agreement.
Grace Period for Purchase Balance. New purchases posted to your Account in billing cycles with no previous balance, or when the previous balance was fully paid during the cycle, do not begin
to incur a fmance charge unlilthe start of the next billing cycle. You will pay no finance charge on such new purchases if you pay the total new balance in full by the payment due date shown on
YOUr statement. New purchases posted in any other billing cycle incur a finance charge, and there is no period in which such purchases may be repaid without incurring a finance charge.
Rebate. On the last day of each monthly statement period we will credit your Account with 1%.of your net purchase transactions posted during the statement period. "Net Purchase Transactions"
means Card purchases, less purchase adjustments and purchase credits posted durmg the penod.
Fees. We may charge your Account $0 for: each Card you ask us to replace; each returned payment; each check you write on your Account that we return unpaid; each stop payment order or
renewal of such an order; each billing cycle within which your Account is delInquent {late charge}; and each bIlling cycle WIthin which your balance exceeds your credit line {overJJmit fee}, even if
your Account is closed. If you request copies of billing statements that were first sent to you more than three months earlier, we may charge a handling fee of $2 for each such copy. If you request
th<:it we make a one-time automatic payment from your personal checking account, we may charge your credit card account a fee of $4.95 for each request. This fee is a FINANCE CHARGE, and
It will apply regardless of whether funds are available m your personal checking account to make the payment.

have. In the event of your default, the outstanding balance on your Account shall continue to accrue mterest at the APR(s) disclosed in the Finance Charges section of this Agreement, even if we
have filed sui! to collect the amount you owe.
Credit Line. Your credit line is specified from time to time in a separate notice. Your monthly statements show your credit line and the amount of your available credit. We may increase Of

transactions, available credit may be less. You will not use your Account for, and we may refuse to honor, any transaction which would cause you to exceed your available credit.
