for and charge your account for all transactions made on your account You promise to
pay us for all transactions made on your account, as well as any fees orfinance charges.

not used your account for any purpose.
Throughout this agreement, the words "we", "us" and "our" mean Chase Bank USA, NA.,
the issuer of your credit card and account. The words "you", "your" and "yours" mean all
persons responsible for complying with this agreement, including the person who applied
for the account and the person to whom we address billing statements, as well as any
person who agrees to be liable on the account. The word "card"means one or more cards
or other access devices, such as account numbers, that we have issued to permit you
to obtain credit under this agreement.
USING YOUR ACCOUNT
Your account is a consumer account and shall be used only for personal, family or
household purposes. Unless we agree or it is required by law, we will not be responsible
for merchandise or services purchased or leased through use of your account. You
promise to use your account only for valid and lawful transactions. For example, internet
gambling may be illegal in some places. It is not our responsibility to make sure that you
use your account only for permissible transactions, and you will remain responsible for
paying for a transaction even if it is not permissible or contemplated underthis agreement
Types of Transactions:
• Purchases: You may use your card to pay for goods or services.
• Checks: We may provide you cash advance checks or balance transfer checks as a
wayto use your account. We also referto them inthis agreement as a check orchecks.
You may use a checkto pay for goods or services,to transfer balances to your account,
or for other uses we allow. But you may not use these checks to transfer balances to
this account from other accounts with us or any of our related companies. Only the
person whose name is printed on the check may signthe check. Cash advance checks
are treated as cash advances and balance transfer checks are treated as balance
transfers except as noted in this agreement or any offer we make to you. We may treat
checks thatwe call convenience checks as balance transfer checks. However, checks
thatwe call convenience checks and thatwe indicated to you are subject to the terms
for cash advances, may be treated as cash advances and assessed cash advance rates
and fees.
• Balance Transfers: You may transfer balances from other accounts or loans with other
credit card issuers or other lenders to this account, or other balance transfers we allow.
But you may not transfer balances to this account from other accounts with us or any
of our related companies. If a portion of a requested balance transfer will exceed your
available credit line, we may process a partial balance transfer up to your available
credit line.
• Cash Advances: You may use your card to get cash from automatic teller machines, or
from financial institutions accepting the card; or to obtain travelers checks, foreign
currency, money orders, wire transfers or similar cash-like charges; orto obtain lottery
tickets, casino gaming chips, race track wagers or for similar betting transactions. You
may also use a third party service to make a payment on your behalf and bill the payment
to this account.
• Overdraft Advances: If you have an eligible checking account with one of our related
banks, you may link this account to your checking account with our related bank to
cover an overdraft on that checking account under the terms of this agreement and
your checking account agreement.
Billing Cycle: In order to manage your account, we divide time into periods called "billing
cycles'. Each billing cycle is approximately one month in length. For each calendar month,
your account will have a billing cycle that ends in that month. Your account will have a
billing cycle ending in each calendar month whether or not there is a billing statement
for that billing cycle.
Authorized Users: If you allow someone to use your account, that person will be an
authorized user. You may request an additional card for use by an authorized user on
your account. If you do so, this account may appear on the credit report of that authorized
user. You should think carefully before allowing anyone to become an authorized user
because you are allowing that person to use the account as you can. You will remain
responsible for the use of your account and each card issued on your account according
to the terms of this agreement. This includes your responsibility for paying all charges
on your account made by an authorized user.
You must notify us to terminate an authorized user's permission to use your account. If
you notify us, we may close the account and/or issue a new card or cards with a different
account number. You should also recover and destroy any cards, checks or any other
means of access to your account from that authorized user.
Credit Line: Your credit line appears on your billing statements. We may also referto the
credit line as a credit limit. Your billing statement may also show that only a portion of
your credit line may be used for cash advances. Cash advances, including cash advance
checks, are charged against the cash advance portion of your credit line, and all other
transactions are charged against your credit line. You are responsible for keeping track
Page 1 of 6
of your account balance, including any fees and finance charges, and making sure it
remains below your credit line. If your account balance is over your credit line for any
reason, we may charge you an overlimit fee as described in this agreement. We may, but
are not required to, authorize charges that go over your credit line. You must pay any
amount over your credit line, and you must pay us immediately if we ask you to. This
agreement applies to any balance on your account, including any balance over your
credit line.
At our discretion, we may increase, reduce, or cancel your credit line, or the cash advance
portion of your credit line, at any time. However, if you have asked us not to do so, we
will notincrease your credit line. A change to your credit line will not affect your obligation
to pay us.
International Transactions: International transactions include any transaction that you
make in a foreign currency orthatyou make outside of the United States of America even
if it is made in U.S. dollars. If you make a transaction in a foreign currency, Visa
International or MasterCard International, Inc., will convert the transaction into U.S.
dollars by using its respective currency conversion procedures. The exchange rate each
entity uses to convert currency is a rate that it selects either from the range of rates
available in the wholesale currency markets for the applicable processing date (which
rate may vary from the rate the respective entity itself receives), or the
government-mandated rate in effect on the applicable processing date. The rate in effect
on the applicable processing date may differ from the rate on the date you used your card
or account. We reserve the right to charge you an additional 3% of the U.S. dollar amount
of any international transaction, whether that transaction was originally made in U.S.
dollars or was made in another currency and converted to U.S. dollars by Visa or
MasterCard. In either case, the 3% will be calculated on the U.S. dollar amount provided
to us by that entity. The some process and charges may apply if any international
transaction is reversed.
Refusal to Authorize Transactions: We may, but are not required to, decline a transaction
on your account for any of the following reasons:
• because of operational considerations,
• because your account is in default,
• if we suspect fraudulent or unlawful activity or,
• in our discretion, for any other reason.
We are not responsible for any losses if a transaction on your account is declined for
any reason, either by us or a third party, even if you have sufficient credit available.
For online transactions, we may require that you register your account with an
authorization system that we select We will notify you if we want you to register. If you
do not register, we may decline your online transactions.
Refusal to Pay Checks: Each check you write is your request for funds. When we receive
a check for payment, we may review your account to decide whether to authorize that
check. We may, but are not required to, reject and return unpaid a check for any reason,
including the following examples:
• We or one of our related companies is the payee on the check.
• Yourcreditline or cash advance portion of your credit line has been exceeded, orwould
be exceeded if we paid the check.
• The check is post-dated. If a post-dated check is paid, resulting in another check being
returned or not paid, we are not responsible.
• You have used the check after the date specified on it.
• You are in default or would be if we paid the check.
Lost or Stolen Cards, Checks or Account Numbers: If any card, check, account number
or other means to access your account is lost or stolen, or you think someone used or
may use them without your permission, you must notify us at once by calling the
Cardmember Service telephone number shown on your card or billing statement. Do not
use your account after you notify us, even if your card, check, account number or other
means to access your account is found or returned. We may terminate or suspend your
credit privileges when you notify us of any loss, theft or unauthorized use related to your
account.
You may be liable if there is unauthorized use of your account from which you receive
no benefit, but you will not be liable for more than $50.00 of such transactions, and you
will not be liable for any such transactions made after you notify us of the loss, theft or
unauthorized use. However, you must identityfor us the unauthorized charges from which

PAYMENTS
Payment Instructions: Your billing statement and accompanying envelope include
instructions you must follow for making payments and sets forth the date and time by
which we must receive the payment.

in full satisfaction of a disputed amount (conditional payments), must be sent to us at the
conditional payments address listed on your monthly statement We reserve all our rights
regarding such payments. For example, if it is determined there is no valid dispute or if
any such payment is received at any other address, we may accept the payment and you
will still owe any remaining balance. We may refuse to accept any such payment by
returning it to you, not cashing it or by destroying it All other payments that you make
should be sent to the regular payment address shown on your monthly statements.
EXHIBIT
z
We reserve the right to electronically collect your eligible payment checks, at first
presentment and any representment, from the bank account on which the check is
drawn. Our receipt of your payment checks is your authorization for us to collect
the amount of the check electronically, or, if needed, by a draft drawn against the
bank account Payment checks will be collected electronically by sending the check
amount along with the check, routing and account numbers to your bank. Your bank
account may be debited as early as the same day we receive your payment. The
original payment check will be destroyed and an image will be maintained in our
records.
Minimum Payment You agree to pay at leastthe minimum payment due, as shown
on your billing statement, so that we receive it by the date and time payment is due.
You may pay more than the minimum payment due and may pay the full amount you
owe us at any time. If you have a balance that is subject to finance charges, the
sooner you pay us, the lessyou will pay in finance charges becausefinance charges
accrue on your balance each day.
Your billing statement shows your beginning balance and your ending balance (the
'New Balance' on your billing statement). If the New Balance isS10.00 or less, your
minimum payment due will be the New Balance. Otherwise, it will be the largest of
the following: 510.00; 2% of the New Balance; or the sum of 1 % of the New Balance,
total billed periodic rate finance charges, and any billed late and overlimit fees. As
part of the minimum payment due, we also add any amount past due and any amount
over your credit line.
Payment Allocation: You agree that we are authorized to allocate your payments
and credits in a way that is most favorable to or convenient for us. For example, you
authorize usto apply your payments and credits to balances with lower APRs (such
as promotional APRs) before balances with higher APRs.
Credit Balances: You may request a refund of a credit balance at any time. We may
reduce the amount of any credit balance by the amount of new charges orfees billed
to your account.
Automatic Charges: You may authorize a third party to automatically charge your
account for repeat transactions (for example, monthly utility charges, memberships
and insurance premiums). If automatic charges are stopped for any reason (including
because your account is closed or suspended for any reason) or your account
number changes, you are responsible for notifying the biller and paying these charges
directly. If your account number changes, we may, but are not required to, pay from
your new account number chargesthatyou authorized to be billed to your old account
number.
Promotions: From time to time we may offer special terms for your account. If we
do, we will notify you about the terms of the offer and how long they will be in effect.
Any promotion is subject to the terms of this agreement, as modified by the
promotional offer.
FINANCE CHARGES
Daily Periodic Rates and Annual Percentage Rates: Your annual percentage rates
('APRs") and the corresponding daily periodic rates are listed on the Rates and Fees
Table that is at the end of this document or provided separately. To get the daily
periodic rate we divide the APR by 365, and in effect always round up at the fifth
place to the right of the decimal point
Variable Rates: One or more APRsthat applytoyour account mayvary with changes
to the Prime Rate. When you have an APR that varies with changes to the Prime
Rate, we calculate the APR by adding a margin to the Prime Rate published in The
Wall Street Journaltwo business days before the Closing Date shown on your billing
statement. The "Prime Rate" is the highest (U.S.) Prime Rate published in the Money
Rates section of The Wall Street Journal. If The Wall Street Journalstops publishing
the Prime Rate, we will select a similar reference rate and inform you on your billing
statement or through a separate notice.
A "margin" is the percentage we add to the Prime Rate to calculate the APR. A
"business day" is any day that is not a weekend or federal holiday. The Rates and
Fees Table shows which rates, if any, are variable rates. It also lists the margin for
each variable rate and any minimum daily periodic rate and corresponding APR.
Two business days before the Closing Date shown on your billing statement, we see
what the Prime Rate is. We then add the applicable margin to that Prime Rate to get
the APR. The daily periodic rate is calculated as described above.
If our calculation results in a change to a daily periodic rate from the previous billing
cycle because the Prime Rate has changed, the new rate will apply as of the first
day of your billing cycle that ends in the calendar month in which we made the
calculation. lithe daily periodic rate increases,you will have to pay a higher periodic
finance charge and may have to pay a higher minimum payment.
Default Rates: Your APRs also may vary if you are in default under this agreement
or any other agreement you have with us or any of our related companies for any of
the following reasons:
• We do not receive, for any payment that is owed on this account or any other
account or loan with us, at least the minimum payment due by the date and time
due.
• You exceed your credit line on this account
• You make a payment to us that is not honored by your bank.
If any of these events occurs, we may increase the APRs (including any promotional
APR) on all balances lexcluding overdraft advances) up to a maximum of the default
rate stated in the Rates and Fees Table. We may consider the following factors to
determine your default rate: the length of time your account has been open, the
existence, seriousness and timing of the defaults on your account; other indications
of your account usage and performance; information aboutyour other relationships
with us or any of our related companies; and information we obtain from consumer
credit reports obtained from credit bureaus. The default rate will take effect as of
the first day of the billing cycle in which the default occurs.
If we decide not to increase your APR even though there is a default or if we do not
increase your APR up to the maximum default rate stated in the Rates and Fees
Table, we reserve our rightto increase your APR in the event of any future default.
We may in our discretion determine to charge reduced default rates or reinstate
standard rates for all or selected balances on your account
Finance Charge Calculation - Average Daily Balance Method (Including New
Transactions): We calculate periodic finance charges separately for each balance
associated with a different category of transactions (for example, purchases, balance
transfers, balance transfer checks, cash advances, cash advance checks, overdraft
advances, and each promotion). These calculations may combine different categories
with the same daily periodic rates. This is how it works:
We calculate periodic finance charges for purchases, balance transfers, balance
transfer checks, cash advances, cash advance checks, and overdraft advances by
multiplying the daily balance for each of those categories by the daily periodic rate
for each of those categories, each day. You may have overdraft advances only if
you have linked this account to a checking account with one of our related banks.
We calculatethe periodic finance charges forpurchases, balance transfers, balance
transfer checks, cash advances, and cash advance checks subjectto a promotional
rate the same way, but we use the promotional rate.
To get the daily balance for each day for each category:
• We take the beginning balance for that day.
• We add to that balance any new transactions, fees, other charges, and debit
adjustments that apply to that category. We add a new purchase, cash advance,
balance transfer or overdraft advance, if applicable, to the daily balance as of the
transaction date, or a later date of our choice. We add a new cash advance check
or balance transfer check to the daily balance as of the date the cash advance
check or balance transfer check is deposited by a payee, or a later date of our
choice.
• We subtract from that balance any payments, credits, or credit adjustments that
apply to that category and that are credited as of that day.
• We treat a credit balance as a balance of zero.
To get the beginning balance for each category for the next day, we add the daily
periodic finance charge to the daily balance. If more than one daily periodic rate
could apply to a category because the rate for the category may vary based on the
amount of its average daily balance, we will use the daily periodic rate that applies
for the average daily balance amount at the end of the billing cycle to calculate the
daily periodic finance charge each day. This agreement provides for daily
compounding of finance charges.
To get the total periodic finance charge for the billing cycle, we add all of the daily
periodic finance charges for each category for each day during that billing cycle.
However, if any periodic finance charge is due, we will charge you at least the
minimum periodic finance charge stated in the Rates and Fees Table. If it is necessary
to add an additional amount to reach the minimum finance charge, we add that
amount to the balance for purchases made during the billing-cycle.
The total finance charge on your account for a billing cycle will be the sum of the
periodic finance charges plus any transaction fee finance charges.
For each categorywe calculate an average daily balance {including newtransactions)
for the billing cycle by adding all your daily balances and dividing that amount by
the number of days in the billing cycle. If you multiply the average daily balance for
a category bythe applicable daily periodic rate, and multiplythe resultbythe number
of days in the billing cycle, the total will equal the periodic finance charges for that
balance attributable to that billing cycle, except for minor variations due to rounding.
Grace Period and Accrual of Finance Charges: We accrue periodic finance charges
on a transaction, fee, or finance charge from the date it is added to your daily balance
until payment in full is received on your account. However, we do not charge periodic
finance charges on new purchases billed during a billing cycle if we receive payment
of your New Balance by the date and time your minimum payment is due and we
received payment of your New Balance on your previous billing statement by the
date and time your payment was due. This exception or'grace period" applies only
to purchases and does not applyto balance transfers, balance transferchecks, cash
advances, cash advance checks or overdraft advances, if applicable.
Transaction Fees for Cash Advances: We may charge you a cash advance fee in
the amount stated in the Rates and Fees Table for cash advance checks and cash
advances.
In addition, if you use a third party service to make a payment on your behalf and
the service charges the payment to this account, we may charge a transaction fee
for the payment.
These transaction fees are finance charges. We add the fee to the balance for the
related category as of the transaction date of the cash advance. For example, a
transaction fee for a cash advance would be added to your cash advance balance.
Transaction Fees for Balance Transfers: We may charge you a balance transfer fee
in the amount stated in the Rates and Fees Table for balance transfer checks and
balance transfers.
These transaction fees are finance charges. We add the fee to the balance for the
related category as of the transaction date of the balance transfer. For example, a
transaction fee for a balance transfer would be added to your balance transfer
balance.
OTHER FEES AND CHARGES
We may charge the following fees. The amounts of these fees are listed in the Rates
and Fees Table. These fees will be added to the balance for purchases made during
the billing cycle.
Annual Membership Fee: If your account has an annual membership fee, it will be
billed each year or in monthly installments (as stated in the Rates and Fees Table),
whether ornotyou use youraccount, and you agree to pay itwhen billed.The annual
Page 2 of 6 CMA12762
membership fee is non-refundable unless you notify us that you wish to close your account
within 30 day$ of the date we mail your billing statement on which the annual membership
fee is charged and at the same time, you pay your outstanding balance in full. Your payment
of the annual membership fee does not affect our right to close your a c count or limit your
right to make transactions an your account If your account is closed by you or us, we
will continue to charge the annual membership fee until you pay your outstanding balance
in full and terminate your account relationship.
Late Fee: If we do not receive at least the required minimum payment by the date and
time it is due as shown on your billing statement for any billing cycle, we may charge the
late fee shown in the Rates and Fees Table. If the late fee is based on a balance, we
calculate the late fee using the Previous Balance on the current month's statement that
shows the late fee. This balance is the same as the New Balance shown on the prior
month's statement for which we did not receive at least the required minimum payment
by the date and time it was due.
Overlimit Fee: If your account balance is over your credit line at anytime during a billing

Arbitration Act (the "FAA'1, 9 U.S.C. §1-16 as it maybe amended. This Arbitration Agreement

but not limited to credit bureaus, merchants that accept any credit device issued under
the Account, rewards programs and enrollment services, credit insurance companies,

if, and only if, such a third parry is named by you as a co-defendant in any Claim you assert
against us.

court may elect arbitration with respect to any such Claims advanced in the lawsuit by
any party or parties.

claims court any Claim that is within that court's jurisdiction and proceeds on an individual
basis. If a party elects to arbitrate a Claim,the arbitration will be conducted as an individual
action. Neither you nor we agree to any arbitration on a class or representative basis,
and the arbitrator shall have no authority to proceed on such basis. This means that even
if a class action lawsuit or other representative action, such as that in the form of a private
attorney general action, is filed, any Claim between us related to the issues raised in such
lawsuits will be subject to an individual arbitration claim if either you or we to elect
No arbitration will be consolidated with any other arbitration proceeding without the
consent of all parties. The only Claims that may be joined in an individual action under

bankruptcy or (2) those brought by you and any co-applicant, joint cardmember, or
authorized user of your Account, or your heirs or your trustee in bankruptcy against us.
Initiation of Arbitration. The party filing a Claim in arbitration must choose one of the
following two arbitration administrators: American Arbitration Association; or National
Arbitration Forum. These administrators are independent from us. The administrator does
not conduct the arbitration. Arbitration is conducted under the rules of the selected
arbitration administrator by an impartial third party chosen in accordance with the rules
of the selected arbitration administrator and as may be provided in this Arbitration
Agreement Any arbitration hearing that you attend shall be held at a place chosen by
the arbitrator or arbitration administrator within the federal judicial district in which you
reside at the time the Claim is filed, or at some other place to which you and we agree in
writing. You may obtain copies of the current rules of each of the two arbitration
administrators, information about arbitration and arbitration fees, and instructions for
initiating arbitration by contacting the arbitration administrators as follows:
American Arbitration Association, 335 Madison Avenue, Floor 10, New York, NY
10017-4605, Web site: www.adr.org, 800-778-7879; or
National Arbitration Forum, P.O. Box 50191, Minneapolis, MN 55405, Web site:
www.arbitration-forum.com, 800-474-2371.
Procedures and law applicable in arbitration. A single, neutral arbitrator will resolve
Claims.The arbitratorwill eitherbe a lawyerwith at leastten years experience or a retired
or former judge. The arbitration will be conducted under the applicable procedures and
rules of the arbitration administrator that are in effect on the date the arbitration is filed
unless those procedures and rules are inconsistent with this Arbitration Agreement, in
which case this Agreementwill prevail. These procedures and rules may limitthe amount
of discovery available to you or us. The arbitrator will apply applicable substantive law
consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations, and will honor claims of
privilege recognized at law. You may choose to have a hearing and be represented by
counsel The arbitrator will take reasonable steps to protect customer Account information
and other confidential information, including the use of protective orders to prohibit
disclosure outside the arbitration, if requested to do so by you or us. The arbitrator will
have the power to award to a party any damages or other relief provided for under
applicable law, and will not have the power to award relief to, against, or for the benefit
of any person who is not a party to the proceeding. If the law authorizes such relief, the
arbitrator may award punitive damages or attorney fees. The arbitrator will make any
award in writing but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by a party.
Upon a request by you or us, the arbitrator will provide a brief statement of the reasons
for the award.
Costs. We will reimburse you for the initial arbitration filing fee paid by you up to the
amount of 5500 upon receipt of proof of payment Additionally, if there is a hearing, we
Page 3 of 6 CMA12762
will pay ahy fees of the arbitrator and arbitration administrator for the first two days
of that hearing. The payment of any such hearing fees by us will be made directly
to the arbitration administrator selected by you or us pursuant to this Arbitration
Agreement All other fees will be allocated in keeping with the rules of the arbitration
administrator and applicable law. However, we will advance or reimburse filing fees
and other fees if the arbitration administrator or arbitrator determines there is good
reason for requiring us to do so or you ask us and we determine there is good cause
for doing so. Each party will bear the expense of the fees and costs of that party's
attorneys, experts, witnesses, documents and other expenses, regardless of which
party prevails, for arbitration and any appeal (as permitted below), except that the
arbitrator shall apply any applicable law in determining whether a party should
recover any or all fees and costs from another party.
Enforcement, finality, appeals. Failure or any delay in enforcing this Arbitration
Agreement at any time, or in connection with any particular Claims, will not constitute
a waiver of any rights to require arbitration at a later time or in connection with any
other Claims.Any decision rendered in such arbitration proceeding will be final and
binding on the parties, unless a party appeals in writing to the arbitration organization
within 30 days of issuance of the award. The appeal must request a new arbitration
before a panel of three neutral arbitrators designated by the same arbitration
organization. The panel will reconsider all factual and legal issues anew, follow the
same rules that apply to a proceeding using a single arbitrator, and make decisions
based on the vote of the majority. Each parry will bear their own fees, costs and
expenses for any appeal, but a party may recover any or all fees, costs and expenses
from another party, if the majority of the panel of arbitrators, applying applicable
law, so determines. An award in arbitration will be enforceable as provided by the
FAA or other applicable law by any court having jurisdiction.
Severability, survival. This Arbitration Agreement shall survive: (i) termination or
changes in the Cardmember Agreement, the Account and the relationship between
you and us concerning the Account, such as the issuing of a new account number
or the transferring of the balance in the Account to another account; Oll the
bankruptcy of any party or any similar proceeding initiated by you or on your behalf;
and (iii) payment of the debt in full by you or by a third party. If any portion of this
Arbitration Agreement is deemed invalid or unenforceable, the remaining portions
shall nevertheless remain in force.
