At the special instance and request of the Defendant, and relying on information received from the Defendant, the Plaintiff issued a Discover credit card to the Defendant so that the Defendant could make purchases from various merchants who were authorized to accept the credit card from the Defendant in lieu of payment by the Defendant to the merchants. 7. The Defendant received the physical credit card issued by the Plaintiff, together with a Cardmember Agreement (extension of credit agreement), which agreement contains the terms and conditions governing the use of the credit card between the parties hereto.

Thereafter, on sundry and various occasions, the Defendant, pursuant to the extension of credit agreement, used the credit card for purchases and/or other forms of credit, which credit and its terms are governed by the Cardmember Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit "B". 9. The Defendant ratified the terms and conditions of the Cardmember Agreement each and every time they utilized the Discover credit card, as well as by continuing to make payments to the Plaintiff after receiving monthly statements summarizing the activities and/or transactions on the account. 10. Plaintiff believes, and therefore avers, that the Defendant's last payment in regard to their obligation was processed on January 24, 2010, as a result thereof, the Defendant is in breach of their obligation to the Plaintiff in accordance with the Cardmember Agreement; and as a result thereof, the obligation of the Defendant to satisfy the entire balance in regard to the credit card account became accelerated. 11.

Defendant by the use of the Discover credit card and the extension of credit received the benefit of the same which was given on the said credit account and has failed to make payment for the receipt of the said benefit. 18.

FINANCE CHARGES How We Calculate Periodic Finance Charges. We begin to impose Periodic Finance Charges on all transactions from the Transaction Date for the transaction shown on your billing statement, unless a transaction is posted to Your Account after the close of the billing period in which it occurs, in wh7ch case we begin to impose Periodic Finance Charges on thattransaction from the fiat day of the btlbngperiod in which R is posted to your Account. We continue to tmpose Periodic Finance Charges until the date you pay your entire New Balance shown on your billing statement by making payments or receiving credits. However, 7f you paid the New Balance on your previous billing statement by the Payment Due Date shown on that billing statement, we will not impose Periodic Finance Charges on new purchases, that is, purchases first appearing on the curcent billing statement, or any portion of a new purchase, paid by the Payment Due Date on your cunert bilbng statement. We call this the "grace perod." There is no grace period on balance transfers or cash advances. As more fully desvibed in the section titled "How We Apply Payments," we generally appH paymentsto your Account based on the Annual Percentage Rate applltcable to the balance of each transaction category. This means that if you do not pay the New Balance on the current billing statement by the Payment Due Date shown on that billing statement, then, depending on the amount of your payment and the Annual Percentage Rates on other balances, you may not get a grace period on new purchases. ' We sort your transactions into groups of purchases, cash advances, and " balance transfers and then further sort the transactions within each group by their Annual Percentage Rate. For example, purchases subject to a promotional rate and purchases"subject to a standard rate would be separate groups. We refer to these groups as transaction categories At the end of each billing period, we compute balances and Penodic Finance Charges for each day of the billing period for each transaction category. we use the following equation to compute Periodic Finance Charges for each transaction category: 7• (Average Daily Balance) times (days in billing period) times (Daily Periodic Rate). You may refer to the Finance Charge Summary on your billing statement for these amourrts. Then we add up the Periodic Finance Charges for each transaction category to get the total Periodic Finance Charges for your Account. The Average Daily Balance is st7own as zero if, because of the grace period, no Periodic Finance Charges apply to the balance in a transacron category. The Daily Periodic Rate is t/365th of the corresponding Annual Percentage Rate. How We Cakulate Your Balances. We use the Average Daily Balance I (inducting newtransactions)method of calculating the balance upon which we impose Periodic Finance Charges. We compute the Average Daily Balance for each transaction category by adding up all the daily balances in a billing period far a transaction categgory and dwrding the total by the number of days in the billing period. We compute the dai~r balance for each transaNon category on each day by first adding the following to the previous day's daily balance: Vansacttons with a Transaction Date of that day as shown on your billing statemert, unless the transaction is posted to your Account after the dose of the billing period in which R occurs, in which case the vansaction will be added to the daily balance as of the first day of the billing period in which it is posted to your Account, fees charged that -6- day and Periodic Finance Charges acaued on the previous day's daily balance; and by then wbtracting any aedits and payments that are applied against the balance of the transaction category on that day. In calculating the daily balance for the first day of the billing period, we consider the "previous days daily balance" to have been your balance for each transaction category on the last day of your previous billing period. All fees charged to your Account are added to the standard purchase vansaction category with the exception of Cash Advance Transaction Fee Finance Charges which are added to the applicable cash advance transaction category and Balance Transfer Transaction Fee Finance Charges which are added to the applicable balance transfer transaction category. VadablelrrterestRafes. One or more Daily Periodic Rates and corresponding Annual Percentage Rates that apply to a transaction category may be variable rates as set forth in your Prang Schedule or in any speaal offer you receive from us. Variable Annual Percentage Rates are determined by adding a spedfied number of percentage points to the Prime Rate. This is shown on the Pricing Schedule as "Prime + (percentage points).' For Purposes of this Agreement, the Prime Rate is the highest rate of interest uted as the "prime rate" in the Money Rates seRion of The Wall Street loumal on the last business day of the month. The Prime Rate is merely a pridng index and does not represent the lowest or best interest rate available to a borrower at any bank at any given tjtne. Ityou have a variable rate, your Annual Percentage Rate will inaease or decrease when the Prime Rate changes. This change will be effective beginning with the first day of the billing period that begins during the same month as the change in the Prime Rate. An invease in the Annual Percentage Rate may invease your Minimum Payment Due. Defauh Rate. Each time that you do not make the Minimum Payment Due by the Payment Due Date we may, in accordance with applicable law. (i) terminate the availability of any promotional Annual Percentage Rates on new Varuactions; and (ii) increase your Annual Percentage Rates for new transactions to variable Default Rates. Each new variable DefauR Rate for a new transaction is determined by adding up to 5 additional percentage poinu to the otherwise applicable Annual Percentage Rate and will vary based on any changes in the Prime Rate. (For example,rf the promotional purchase rate was 2.99Yo and the rate for other purchases was 15.99% and you paid late once, the rate for all new purchases could inaease up to 20.99SS variable and vary thereafter with the Prime Rate.) When we first determine the vadable Default Rates, we use the Prime Rate effective for the billing period in vvhich you pay late. The variable Default Rates are determined in accordance with the Variable Interest Rates section.
