SCANNED
Loan Disclosures
This LOANLrNEP¢' Credit and Security Agreement, which includes the Truth in
Lending Diecloeures, will be referred to as the Plan. The Plan documents include
this Agreement and an Addendum. You, your and borrower mean any person who
Signs the Plan. Credit Union, we, our end us mean PSECU or anyone to whom the
Credit Union transfers its rights under the Plan.
1. HOW THIS pLAN WORKS -- This is an open-end, multi-featured credit plan. We
anticipate that, from time to time, you will borrow money {called "advances") under
the Plan. We are not required to make advances to you under the Plan and can
refuse a request for an advance at any time. The Addendum describes the
different types of credit (called "subacccunts") avairable under the Plan, the current
interest rate for each subaccaunt expressed as a daily periodic rate and
corresponding annual percentage rate and other charges, It may also have other
terms and a schedule for determining the payment amounts.
2. CREDIT LIMIT -- We may, but do not have to, estal~rJsh a credit limit on certain
subaccounts. If a credit limit is set for a subaccount, you promise not to exceed the
established credit limit. If you exceed the credit limit, you promise to repay
immediatefy the amount which exceeds the credit limit.
3. REPAYMENT --You promise to repay all amounts you owe under the Plan plus
interest. Payments are due on the rest day of the month unless we set a different date
at the time of an advance. If the Addendum has no payment schedule for a
subaccount, your payment will be determined at the time of each advance. Payments
must include any amount past due and any amount by which you have exceeded any
credit limit you have been given for a subacccunt. You may repay air or part et what
you owe at any time without any prepayment pana~. Even if you prepay, you will still
be required to make the regularly scheduled payments unless we agree in writing to
a change in the payment schedule. If you have a joint share draft account, yeu will be
responsible for paying all overdraft advances obtained by a joint holder of the share
draft account. Payments will be applied in the order the Credit Union chooses.
4. PLAN ACCESS -- You can obtain credit advances in any manner authorized by
us. If we allow you to use your ATM/Debit card to access the Plan, you may be liable
for the unauthorized use of your ATM/Debit card. You will not be liable for
unauthorized use that occurs after you notify us, orally or in writing, of the loss, theft,
or possible unauthorized use. If you believe your ATM/Debit card has been fast or
stolen, immediately inform the Credit Union by calling or writing us at the telephone
number or address that appears elsewhere in the Plan. If the card is used to obtain
advances directly from the Plan, your liability will not exceed $50. if the unauthorized
withdrawar is from a share draft account, your liability is governed by the Regulation
E disclosures you received at the time you received your ATM/Debit card. oven if the
withdrawal resutts in an advance being made from your overdraft subaccaunt.
5. FINANCE CHARGE -- The dollar amount you pay for money borrowed is called
a "finance charge" and begins on the date of each advance. A finance charge will be
computed separately for each separate balance under the Plan. To compute the
finance charge, the unpaid balance for each day since your last payment (or since
an advance if you have not yet made a payment) is multiplied by the applicable daily
periodic rate. The sum of these amounts is the finance charge owed. The balance
used to compute the finance charge is the unpaid balance each day after payments
and credits to that balance have been subtracted and any additions to the balance
have been made. in addition to interest, we may charge other finance charges which
are disclosed on the Addendum. It the interest rate ia a variable interest rate, the
Addendum explains how the variable interest rate works.
6. SECURITY --You predge as security for the Plan air shares and dividends and,
if any, alt deposits and interest in all joint and individual accounts you have with us
now and in the future. If a specific dollar amount is pledged for an advance, we will
freeze shares in that account to the extent of the outstanding balance for the
advance. Otherwise, your pledged shares may be withdrawn unless you are in
default. The following paragraph applies In all states except In Ohio, Rhode
Island and Massachusetts: We have a statutory lien on the shares and dividends
and, if any, the deposits and interest in ell individual and joint accounts you have with
us and may exercise our rights under the lien to the extent permitled by state law.
(We are state chartered if our name does net include the term "Federal Credit
Union.") For all borrowers: The statutory lien and/or your pledge will afiow us
to apply the funds in your account(s) to what you owe when you are In default.
The statutory lien and your pledge do not apply to any Individual Retirement
Account or any other account that would Ieee special tax lreatment under state or
federal law if given es security.
Additional security for the Plan may be required at the time of an advance. If a
subaccount identifies a type of property (such as "New Cars") you must give that
type of property as security when you get an advance under that subaccaunt. A
subacccunt name such as "Other Secured" means you must provide security
acceptable to us when you obtain an advance under that subaccaunt. Property you
give as security wiJ~ secure all amounts owed under the Plan and all other loans you
have with us now or in the future, except any loan secured by your principal dwelling.
Property securing other loans you have with us may a~so secure the Plan,
7. PROPERTY INSURANCE, TAXES AND FEES -- You must maintain property
insurance on alt property that you give as security under the Plan. You may purchase
the property insurance from anyone you choose who is acceptable to the Crt
Union, The amount and coverage of the property insurance must be acceptabls

check which may be payable to you in order for us to collect any refund or benel
due under your insurance policy. You aJss promise to pay all taxes and fees (Ii
registration fees) due on the property.

may pay these obligations, but we are not required to do so. Any money we spel
for taxes, fees or insurance will be added to the unpaid balanca of the advance al
you will pay interest on those amounts at the same rate you agreed to pay on ti
advance. We may receive payments Jn connection with the insurance from
company which provides the insurance. We may monitor our loans for the perpo.,
of determining whether you and other borrowers have complied with the insuran(
requirements of its loan agreements or may engage others to do so. The insuran~

to us and (2) the cost of determining compliance with the insurance requirements.

respOnsibility by notifying us, but we will close the account for new transactions if you

replenishing Line of Credit for you and notify you of its amount when we issue the
card. You agree not to let the account balance exceed this approved Credit Line. Each
payment you make on the account will restore your Credit Line by the amount of the
payment which is applied to the principal. You may request an increase in your Credit
Line only by written application to us, which must be approved by our credit committee
or loan officer. By giving you written notice we may reduce your Credit Line from time

when opening, renewing or reviewing your account, and you authorize us to disclose

6. MONTHLY PAYMENT -- We wilt mall you a statement every month showing your
Previous Balances of purchases and cash advances, the current transactions on your
account, the remaining credit av-allable under your Credit Line, the New Balances of
purchases and cash advances, the Total New Balance, the Finance Charge due to date,
and any other billed fees, and the Minimum Payment required. Every month you must pay
at least the Minimum Payment within 25 days of your statement cfosing date. By separate
agreement you may authorize us to charge the minimum payment automatically to your
share or checking account with us. You may, of course, pay more frequently, pay more
than the Minimum Payment, or pay the Total New Balance in full, and you will reduce the
finance charge by doing so. If your monthly payment exceeds the total credit line balance
owed. we will automaticeily post the credit to your S1 shares.
The minimum payment will be (a) 2% of your Total New Balance, rounded up to the
next even dollar, or (b) $20.00, whichever is greater. In addition, at any time your Total
New Balance exceeds your Credit Line, you must immediately pay the excess upon our
demand. We will apply payments in the following manner: first to previous la~e fees,
then to previous cash advances finance charges, then to previous purchase finance
charges, then to current late fees, then to previous cash advance balances, then to
previous purchase balances in the order that they were posted to your account, then
to current cash advance balances, and then to current purchase balances.
7. FINANCE CHARGES --You can avoid the Finance Charge on purchases by
paying the full amount of the New Balanca of Purchases each month within 25 days
of your statement closing date. O~herwise, the New Salance of Purchases, and the
subsequent purchases from the date they are posted to your account, will be sub oct
to F nance Charge. Cash advances are always subject to F nance Charge from the
date they are posted to your account.
Purchases: We calculate your finance charge by multiplying the average adjusted
dai[y balance (see explanation befow), including new purchases, for the billing cycle
by the monthly periodic purchase rate and corresponding ANNUAL PERCENTAGE
RATE as disclosed on the Addendum.
Cash Advancee: We calculate your finance charge on cash advances by
multiplying the average adjusted daily balance (see explanaiton below) for cash
advances during the billing cycle by the monthly periodic advance rate and
corresponding ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE as discfosed on the Addendum.
Balance Computation Method
Average Daily Balance for Purchases - The Average Daily Balance for Purchase
Transactions is calculated by adding the Daily Balancas (Purchase Transaction) for
each day in the billing cycle, and then dividing by the number of days in the billing
cycle. To calculate the Daily Balance for purchases each day, we take the folfowing
steps: We take the outstanding balance (all amounts you owe) at the start of the day.
Then, in the sequence in which amounts are posted to your account, we add the
amounts of all debits and subtract the amounts of all credits or payments which post
to your account that day. After applying payments and credits, we subtract the
amount of any unpaid Finance Charges or Late Charges. Then we atso subtract the
amount of any Cash Advance transactions that posted to your account on that day or
in any previous day in the billing cycle. This gives us the Daily Balance for purchases.
Average Daily Balance for Cash Advances - Cash Advance Tra~actions which are
posted to your account are not inciubed in the Average Daily Balance calculation for
purchases, and are therefore not subject to the monthly periodic rate for pumhases. The
Average Daily Balance is calculated separately for Cash Advances and is subject to the
Cash Advance Monthly Periodic Rate. The Average Daily Balance for Cash Transactions
is calculated by adding the Daih/Balances (Cash Transaction) for each day in the billing
cycle, and then dividing by the number of days in the billing cycle. To calculate the Daily
Balance for cash each day, we take the following steps:We take the outstanding balance
(ail amounts you owe} at the start of the day. Then, in the sequence in which amounts
are posted to your account, we add the amounts of all debits and subtract the amounts
of all credits or payments which post to your account that day. After applying payments
and credits, we subtract the amount of any unpaid Finance Charges or Late Charges.
Then we also subtract the amount ol any Purchase Transactions that posted to your
account on that day or in any previous day in the billing cycle. This gives us the Dally
Balance for Cash Advance Transactions. Note: Cash Advances are always sub)ect to
finance charges and from the day they are posted to your account.
Payments are applied in the following manner: first to previous late fees, then to
previous cash advances finance charges, then to previous purchase finance
charges, then to current late fees, then to previous cash advance balancas, then to
previous purchase balances in the order that they were posted to your account, then
to current cash advance balances, and then to current purchase balances. Credits
are applied first to the particular type of debt which is being credited, if any. and then
to the balance of your account.
Note also that if the total of the payments and credits which are posted to your
account by the Payment Due Date shown on a statement is equal to or exceeds the
New Balance shown on that statement, we will not apply the Monthly Periodic Rate
to your Account on your next statement.
8~ DEFAULT -- You will be in default if you fail to make any Minimum Payment
within 25 days after your monthly statement closing date. You authorize us to transfer
funds sufficient to make the minimum payment due if your VISA loan is in default.
You agree that we may temporarily suspend your ATM card access if your VISA
payment is due for a period exceeding 30 days. You will also be in default if your
ability to repay us is materially reduced by a change in your employment, an
increase in your obligations, bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings involving you,
your death or your failure to abide by this Agreement, c,r if the value of our security
interest materially declines. We have the right to demand immediate payment of your
full account balance if you default, subject to our giving you any notice required by
law. To the extent permitted by law, you will also be required to pay our collection
expenses, including court costs and reasonable attorney fees.
9. USING THE CARD -- To make a purchase or cash advance, there are two
alternative procedures to be followed. One is for you to present the card to a
participating VISA plan merchant, or another financial institution, and sign the sales or
cash advance draft which will be imprinted with your card. The other is to complete the
transaction by using your Personal Identification Number (PIN) in conjunction with the
card in an Automated Teller Machine or other type of electronic terminal that provides
access to the VISA system. You agree that you will not use your card for any
transaction that is illegal under applicable federal, state, or local law. 'rna monthly
statement will identify the merchant, electronic terminal or financial institution at which
transactions were made, but sale, cash advance, credit or other slips cannot be
