To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions
to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. What this means for you: When you open
an account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth or other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask
for your driver's license or other identifying documents.

California Residents:

If you are married, you may apply for a separate account.

Ohio Residents:

The Ohio laws against discrimination require that all creditors make credit equally available to all creditworthy customers, and
that credit reporting agencies maintain separate credit histories on each individual upon request. The Ohio Civil Rights
Commission administers compliance with this law.

New York, Rhode Island and Vermont Residents:

We may order credit reports in connection with processing applications/solicitations and any update, renewal or extension of
credit. Upon request, we will tell you the name and address of any consumer-reporting agency that furnished a report on you.
You consent to the obtaining of such reports by signing or otherwise submitting an application or solicitation.

Important Information for Covered Borrowers under the Military Lending Act

extensions of consumer credit. In general, the cost of consumer credit to a member of the Armed Forces and his or her dependent may
not exceed an annual percentage rate of 36 percent. This rate must include, as applicable to the credit transaction or account: The costs
associated with credit insurance premiums; fees for ancillary products sold in connection with the credit transaction; any application fee
charged (other than certain application fees for specified credit transactions or accounts); and any participation fee charged (other than
certain participation fees for a credit card account)

hereby authorize Comenity Capital Bank to investigate my credit record. The information that I have supplied is true and correct. I agree
that a credit report may be obtained for any lawful purpose, including in connection with the processing of an application, or
subsequently with the update, renewal or extension of credit. Upon my request, I will be informed of whether or not a consumer credit
report was ordered, and if it was, I will be given the name and address of the consumer-reporting agency that furnished the report. I
agree to be bound by the terms of the Zales The Diamond Card account agreement. I acknowledge that I will receive a Zales The
