GRACE PERIOD See SupplementToThe Notice Of Change In Terms on the enclosed statement for complete terms. .1 i I 1 1 I I& CALCULATION OF BALANCES SUBJECT TO FIANCE CHARGE Categories A and B - Average Balance Method (kKAWing new Cash Advances) We calculate separate Balances Subject to Finance Charge for Category A balances and Category B balances. We calculate the Balance Subject to Finance Charge for each of these balance categories by. (1) calculating a daily balance for each day in the current billing cycle; (2) calculating a daily balance for each day prior to the current billing cycle that had a `Pre-Cycle Cash Advance" balance (a Pre-Cycle Cash Advance is a Cash Advance with a transaction data prior to the current billing cycle but with a posting date within the current billing cycle); (3) adding all the daily balances together, and (4) dividing the sum of the daily balances by the number of days in the current billing cycle. To calculate the daily balance for each day in the current billing cycle, we take the beginning balance, add an amount equal to the applicable Daily Periodic Rate multiplied by the previous days daily balance, add new Cash Advances and Transaction Fees, and subtract applicable payments and credits. If any daily balance is less than zero we treat it as zero. To calculate a daily balance for each day prior to the current billing cycle that had a Pre-Cycle Cash Advance balance, we take the beginning balance attributable solely to Pre-Cycle Cash Advances (which will be zero on the transaction date of the first Pre-Cycle Cash Advance), add an amount equal to the applicable Daly Periodic Rate multiplied by the previous day's daily balance, and add only the applicable Pre.-Cycle Cash Advances, and their related Transaction Fees. We exclude from this calculation all transactions posted in previous billing cycles. Categories C and D - Average Dally Balance Method (including new transactions) See Supplement To The Notice Of Change In Terms on the enclosed statement for complete terms. 11.

Overdraft protection transfers include automatic transfers to cover checking account fees. Overdraft protection transfers are processed after dose of business Monday through Fray and are treated as Category B Cash Advances.
