Annual Percentage Rate for Purchases:
Your annual percentage rate for purchases and the corresponding daily periodic rate
appear on the card carrier. A daily periodic rate is the applicable annual percentage
rate divided by 365. Whether or not the annual percentage rue for purchases is ,
based on the U.S. Prime Rate plus a margin is indicated on the card artier. Please
see the section entitled "Variable Annual Percentage Rates for Purchases and Cash
Advances" for details relating to how this rate may change
S
Annual Percentage Rate for Cash Advances
Your ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE for cash advances is 19.99%, which
corresponds to a daily periodic rue of 0.0548%. The daily periodic rue is the ash
advance annual percentage rate divided by 365, Please see the section entitled
Variable Annual Percentage Rams for Purchases and Cash Advances for details relat-
ing to how this rate may change if you default under any Cardmember Agreement
Variable Annual Percentage Rates for Purchases and
Cash Advances:
If the annual percentage nu for purchases is based on the U.S. Prime Rate plus a
margin, we will calculate the rue by adding the margin that appears on the card
artier to the US. Prime Rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the last business
day of each month. If more than one U.S. Prime Rate is published we may choose
the highest rate If The Wall Stmt Journal ceases publication or to publish the U.S. - " . . -
Prime Rare, we may use the US. Prime Rate published in any other newspaper of -
general circulation, or we may substitute a similar reference rate at our sole discre-
lion. Each time the annual percentage rate changes, we will apply it to any existing
balances, subject to my promotional race that may apply.
"
In addition, the annual percentage rue for purchases and ash advances may vary if - '
you default under any Cardmember Agreement because you fail to make a payment _
to us or any other creditor when due, you exceed your credit fine, or you make a
payment to us that is not honored by your bank. In such dreumstanm we may
increase the ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE (including any promotional rate) "
on all balances to a higher rate of up to 13.99% Factors considered in determining
this higher rue may include the length of time the account has been open, the exis-
tence. seriousness, and timing of Cardmember Agreement defaults, and other indica•
lions of account usage and performance Your account may again become eligible for '
a lower annual percentage rate on new purchases, new, ash advances, or both after
you have met the terns of all Cardmember Agreements for six months. Your exist/
ing balances will remain subject to the higher rate undl they are paid in full. r "
Any increase or decrease In a variable annual percentage rate takes effect on the first
day of the billing period directly following the month in which we calculate the rate. "
The annual percentage race in effect and any subsequent changes to it will appear on ` -
the billing statement An increase in the variable annual percentage rue means you t "
will pay a higher finance charge and perhaps a higher minimum payment
Promotional Rate Offers:At our discretion, we may offer you a promotional annual percentage rate for all or a _
part of the purchase and/or ash advance balances. The period of time for which the
promotional ate applies may be limited. Any promotional rate, the corresponding
periodic rates, and the period of time during which it is in effect will appear on the - -
card carrier. We may also offer you a promotional annual percentage ate to
U C-S
encourage specific transactions, such as transferring balances from accounts you
have with other creditors. Any promotional rate offer will be subject to the terms '
of the offer and this Agreement.
Transaction Fee for Balance Transfers: ;
For each balance you transfer from any creditor by means other than a convenience i.
check we add an additional FINANCE CHARGE of 3.0% of the amount of the
balance transfer, but not less than $10 or more than $29. This fee will be added to
the purchase balance. The balance transfer fee may muse the annual percentage t -
rate on the billing statement on which the balance transfer first appears to exceed f
the nominal annual percentage rate. t
Finance Charges:
Finance charges will begin to accrue from the date of the transaction for purchases i
and continue to acme until payment In full is credited to your account. However, -
9 you paid the total New Balance fisted on the last billing statement by the payment
due date on that statement. you will have until the payment due date on your cur- '
rent statement to pay your total New Balance to avoid imposition of finance charges -
on purchases. For cash advances and balance transfers, finance charges will begin to
acme from the date of the transaction and continue to accrue until payment In full f
is credited to your account. No finance charge is imposed on calling transactions in
the billing period in which they are posted to your accourc Any calling transaction
that is not paid by the payment due dare on the monthly statement in which It is -
billed is added to your daily balance for purchases on the first day of the next billing
period and finance charges will begin to acme on that day. i
We will calculate finance charges as follows.. '
• We figure a portion of the finance charge on your account by multiplying the
daily balance for purchases (which includes balances you transfer from any credi-
tor by means other than a convenience check) and the dally balance for ash
advances by the applicable daily periodic rate and adding together any such -
finance charges for purchases and separately adding together any such finance - ,.
charges for cash advances for each day in the billing period .
• For fmance charge calculation purposes, the billing period begins on the day after - - -
the closing date of the previous billing period and includes the closing date of the
current billing period The number of days In the billing period may vary
.
• To calculate the daily bahances,we take the beginning balance for purchases '
(which includes any unpaid calling transactions from prior billing periods) and the r
beginning balance for cash advances each day, add any new transactions (not
Including new calling transactions), fees, any finance charge on the previous day's
balance, subtract any payments or credits, and make other adjustments. Unless ,• .
we elect to use a later date, we add a new purchase to the purchase balance as -
r
of the date of the purchase and a new ash advance to the cash advance balance wt
on the date of the advance. A credit balance is treated as a balance of zero.
• The balances.subjea to finance charge for purchases and for ash advances on
the billing statement are each the avenge of the respective daily balances during - .. _ '
the billing period If you multiply these figures by the number of days in the -
a
billing period and by the applicable daily periodic rates, the results will be the
finance charges assessed except for minor variations caused by rounding.
i
i
• If the balance for purchases or for ash advances is subject to more than one
rate (for example, because of purchases or ash advances made during a promo-
tional race offer), we will separately calculate each balance subject to each differ. i
ent finance charge and the resulting finance charge in the same manner as t
described above.
Cash Advances and Transaction Fee:
You have obtained a ash advance ff you obtain funds from an automated teller
machine (ATM); through a convenience check, through home banking, or through a ?.
financial institution; make a wire transfer, acquire a money order, travelers check, y
lottery ticket betting or casino chip, or similar item; or engage in another similar
transaction. For each cash advance, we add an additional FINANCE CHARGE of
34% of the advance, but not less than $10. This fee will be added to the cash
advance balance. (The amount of the cash advance may include a surcharge that the
ATM owner imposes.) The cash advance transaction fee may cause the annual per-
cemage rate on the billing statement on which the ash advance first appears to
exceed the nominal annual percentage rate.
Minimum Finance Charge:
If finance charges based on periodic rates are being added to your account but the !
toal of such finance charges for purchases and ash advances is less than $50, we )
assess a minimum FINANCE CHARGE, based on periodic rates. of $30. We add .
the amount to the purchase balance, unless the finance charge applicable to the pur-
chase balance is zero, in which can we add the mount to the ash advance balance.
Credit Balance:
You may not maintain a credit balance on your account in excess of your assigned
credit line. We will return to you any credit amount over $1.00 if the amount has
been on your account longer than three months. You may request a refund of a
credit balance ac any dme We may reduce the amount of any credit balance by the
amount of new charges billed to your account
Transactions Made in Foreign Currencies:
If a transaction is made in a foreign currency, we and Visa International or
MasterCard International, depending on which card is used will convert the transac-
don into a U.S. dollar amount Vin and MasterCard will act in accordance with
their operating regulations or conversion procedures in effect at the time the trans-
action 'a processed. Currently, their regulations and procedures provide that the
currency conversion rate they use is either (I) a wholesale market rate or (2) a gov-
ernment-mandated rate in effect one day prior to the processing date Bode Yna
and MasterCard increase this conversion race by one percent and keep this increase
We increase the conversion rate provided to us by ft or MasterCard by two per.
cent and keep this increase The currency conversion rate calculated in this manner
that is in effect on the processing date may differ from the rate in effect on the
transaction date or the posting dace.
Minimum Amount Due:
Each month you must pay a minimum amount that is the coal of three figures. The
r
t

first is any previous amount that is past due plus arty amount in excess of your credit k•
Inc The second is the sum of all calling transactions posted to your account in the

• If the New Balance exceeds $960, I/48 of the New Balance (rounded down . i.
to the nearest dollar).
You must pay at least the minimum amount by the payment due date, but you may
pay more at any time without a penalty. We will allocate payments to amounts +
owed on your account at our discredon. This Includes, but is not limited to,
applying payments to promotional balances, such as balances you transfer from credi-
tors, before we apply such payments to your purchase or ash advance balances, If .
you pay more than the minimum, we will allocate the excess amount to the purchase -
or cash advance balance at our discretion. The sooner you pay the New Balance, .
the less you will pay in finance charges. We may also allow you to skip a payment
If we do, we will nodfy you. It you choose to skip a payment when offered, we will
continue to assess finance charges, t ,. - -
