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 APRs that applylDyour account mayvarywith 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 Journal two business days belore the Closing Date shown on your billing statement. The 'Prime Rate-is the highest (U.S.) Prime Rate published inthe Money Rates section of The Wall Sire et Journal. If The Wall Sire erJDLIM81slops 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 Sale to calculate the APR. A "business day" is any day that is not a weekend or iederal 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 Data 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. It 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. 11 the daily periodic late 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 it 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; iniormation about your other relationships with us or any of our related companies; and information we obtain from consumer credit reports obtained Irom 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, vie reserve our right to increase your APR in The event of any future detauh. We may in our discretion determine to charge reduced default rates or reinstate standard ratesior 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 ehetks, cash advances, cash advance checks, overdraft advances, and eaChpromotionl.These calculations may combine difiereni categories with the same daily periodic rates. This is hove 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 tot each of those categories by The daily periodic rate lot each of those categories, each day. You may have overdraft advances only it you have linked this account to a checking account with one of our related banks. We calculate the periodic finance charges for purchases, balance transfers, balance transfer checks, cash advances, and cash advance checks subjectt) 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, it 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. It 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 inthe 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 new transactions) for The billing cycle by adding all your daily balances and dividing that amount by the number of days in the billing cycle. 11 you multiply the average daily balance lot a category bythe applicable daily periodic rate, and multiply the result by the number of days in the billing cycle, the total will equal the periodic finance charges lot that balance anributabfe %other billing cycle, except lot minor variations due to rounding. Grace Period and Accrual of Finance Charges: We accrue periodic finance charges one transaction, lee, Dr financ a 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 apply to balance transfers, balance transfer checks, 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 Ihis 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 lot balance transfer checks and balance transfers. These transaCllDn fees are finance charges. We add the fee to the balance for the related category as of the transaction date of the balance transfer.
