Illegal Activity
Your Mastercard card may not be used for any illegal activity. Internet
gambling may be illegal in the jurisdiction in which you are located,
including the United States and its territories. Your card may only
be used for legal transactions. Display of a payment card logo by
an online merchant does not mean that Internet gambling or other
transactions are legal in the jurisdiction in which you are located. You
agree to repay, according to the terms of this Agreement, transactions
you initiate by use of your card, whether deemed legal or illegal.

Internet Transactions
Your Mastercard is automatically enrolled in the Mastercard 3-D
Secure program. 3-D Secure is designed as an additional layer of
security for online transactions when you use your credit card during
a card-not-present transaction. Your transaction is securely verified
in the background and there is nothing else for you to do.

Foreign Currency Transactions
If you effect a transaction at a merchant that settles in a currency
other than U.S. dollars, Mastercard International will convert the
charge into a U.S. dollar amount. The conversion rate in U.S. dollars
will be either at the government-mandated rate or a wholesale
the
currency market
processing  date on  which  the transaction  is processed.  The
currency conversion rate used by Mastercard on the processing
date may differ from the rate that would have been used on the
purchase date or the cardholder statement posting date.

rate determined by  Mastercard for

Foreign Transaction Fee
A fee of 2% of the transaction amount in US Dollars will be assessed
on  cross-border and  international
transactions.  International
transactions include Internet transactions made when you are in the
United States, but the merchant processes the transaction in a foreign
country. Transactions  acquired  in U.S.  territories, and  transactions
originating on U.S. military bases, at U.S. embassies and at U.S.
consulates, are excluded from this fee.

Convenience Checks
You may access your credit line by writing checks provided by us for
that purpose. The checks will be honored and paid up to your credit
limit as long as the account is not in default. You may request a stop
payment on a convenience check by phone or in writing. We must
receive the request in time to afford us reasonable opportunity to act
upon it under the Credit Union’s rules. Oral or telephone requests to
stop payment must be confirmed by you in writing to us within 14
calendar days after your original request, and if not so confirmed,
such request will be considered to have lapsed after the 14-day
period. We can only honor a stop payment request for 12 months
from the date of request. You agree not to hold us responsible for any
claims or liabilities of payees or endorsers on convenience checks for
which you have requested payment stopped. You agree not to hold
us responsible for the misrouting or delay of a convenience check
due to markings placed on the check by you or a prior endorser that
obscure any depository endorsement placed by us or our agent. We
may recognize the signature of any borrower or authorized user on
this account as authorized to transact any business on the account.
Convenience checks cannot be used to pay any amount you owe under
this Agreement or under any other credit agreement or account you
have with us now or in the future. Convenience checks are considered
cash advances and accrue interest according to the method described
for cash advances under the “CALCULATION OF FINANCE CHARGES”
heading of this disclosure.

Default/Collection/Attorney’s Fees
You will be in default and understand that all loan credit under this
Agreement may  be terminated if (1) you do not make periodic

13818702_1_M-134777.indd   1

payments as required by this Agreement, (2) you do not keep any
promise  made in this Agreement or any other agreement with this
Credit Union, (3) any information that you give us to obtain a loan
advance is false, (4) any third party attempts by legal process to take
any property belonging to you, (5) you die, become insolvent or are
a party to any bankruptcy proceeding, or (6) as otherwise provided
in this Agreement. If you are in default, we may refuse to make any
further advances or refuse charge privileges to you and declare all
sums owed under this Agreement immediately due and payable. We
may accept late payments or partial payments without losing any of
our rights under this Agreement. You understand that if you are in
default, we may add to your unpaid balance any reasonable attorney’s
fees and court costs, all of which you agree to pay.

Waivers and Severability
We may waive or decline to enforce any of our rights under this
Agreement without affecting any  of  our  other  rights. Should
any provision of this Agreement be determined to be invalid or
unenforceable, that determination shall not affect the validity or
enforceability of any other provision.

Governing Law
This Agreement, your credit card line of credit, as well as our rights
and  duties  and  your  rights  and duties  regarding  them,  will be
governed by and interpreted in accordance with federal law to the
fullest extent possible and, to the extent federal law does not apply,
in accordance with California law, regardless of where you live and
use your credit card. This Agreement is made in California. All credit
will be extended from California, and all repayment must be made
in California.

Third Party/Mobile Devices
We may also permit you or any authorized user to load information
about  your  account  onto third  party/mobile devices  (such  as  a
smartphone, tablet, or any other handheld or wearable communication
device that allows you to store or electronically present your account
information) that would enable you to make purchases or engage in
credit transactions for your account without needing to show your
credit card. You and we agree that any such use of your account will
be subject to all the terms and conditions contained in this agreement.
To the extent you do use a third party/mobile device to make a credit
transaction on your account, or load information about your account
onto any such device, you need to be aware that we do not control
the device and cannot guarantee the performance of either the device
or any third party.
Additionally:

•  You agree to carefully protect the security of any devices
the same as you would your cash, checks, credit cards
and other valuable information. We encourage you to
password protect or lock your device to help prevent an
unauthorized person from using it. You agree to promptly
report any loss or theft to both us and the third party.
•  You may incur third party fees related to engaging in a
transaction (such as mobile carrier data or messaging
charges.

•  Credit transactions made through a third party/mobile
device  may  involve  the  electronic  transmission  of
information related to you or your account across wireless
or computer networks. Third parties, such as merchants,
card association networks, mobile carriers, mobile wallet
operators, and software application providers may use
and receive information in connection with a credit
transaction. Third parties may also receive information
about your mobile device when you use it to make a credit
transaction.

•  We may, at any time, partially or fully restrict your ability
to make credit transactions through a third party/mobile
device. You agree to notify us promptly if you remove or
want to remove your account information from any third
party/mobile device.

YOUR BILLING RIGHTS:
KEEP THIS DOCUMENT FOR FUTURE USE
This notice tells you about your rights and our  responsibilities
under the Fair Credit Billing Act.
What To Do If You Find a Mistake on Your Statement. If you
think there is an error on your statement, write to us at: SchoolsFirst
FCU P.O. BOX 11547, Santa Ana, CA 92711. You may also contact us
on our website at schoolsfirstfcu.org.
In your letter, give us the following information:

•  Account Information: Your name and account number
•  Dollar Amount: The dollar amount of the suspected error.
•   Description of problem: If you think there is an error on
your bill, describe what you believe is wrong and why you
believe it is a mistake.

You must contact us:

•   Within 60 days after the error appeared on your statement.
•   At least 3 business days before an automated payment
is scheduled, if you want to stop payment on the amount
you think is wrong.

You must notify us of any potential errors in writing (or electronically).
You may call us, but if you do we are not required to investigate any
potential errors and you may have to pay the amount in question.

What will Happen After We Receive Your Letter

When we receive your letter, we must do two things:

1. Within 30 days of receiving your letter, we must tell you
that we received your letter. We will also tell you if we
have already corrected the error.

2. Within 90 days of receiving your letter, we must either
correct the error or explain to you why we believe the bill
is correct.

While we investigate whether or not there has been an error:

•  We cannot try to collect the amount in question, or report

you as delinquent on that amount.

•   The charge in question may remain on your statement,
and we  may continue  to  charge  you interest  on that
amount.

•   While you do not have to pay the amount in question, you

are responsible for the remainder of the balance.

•   We can apply any unpaid amount against your credit limit.
After we finish our investigation, one of two things will happen:
• If we made a mistake: You will not have to pay the amount
in question or any interest or other fees related to the
amount.

•  If we do not believe there was a mistake: You will have to
pay the amount in question, along with applicable interest
and fees. We will send you a statement of the amount you
owe and the date payment is due. We may then report
you as delinquent if you do not pay the amount we think
you owe.

If you receive our explanation but still believe your bill is wrong,
you must write to us within 10 days telling us that you still refuse to
pay. If you do so, we cannot report you as delinquent without also
reporting that you are questioning your bill. We must tell you the
name of anyone to whom we reported you as delinquent, and we
must let those organizations know when the matter has been settled
between us.
If we do not follow all of the rules above, you do not have to pay the

first $50 of the amount in question even if your bill is correct.

Your Rights If You Are Dissatisfied With Your
Credit Card Purchases
If you are dissatisfied with the goods or services that you have
purchased with your credit card and you have tried in good faith to
correct the problem with the merchant, you may have the right not
to pay the remaining amount due on the purchase.
To use this right, the following must be true:

1. The purchase must have been made in your home state
or within 100 miles of your current mailing address, and
the purchase  price  must  have been more  than  $50.
(Note  neither of these  are  necessary  if your purchase
was based on an advertisement we mailed to you, or if
we own the company that sold you the goods or
services.)

2. You must have used your credit card for the purchase.
Purchases made  with cash advances from  an ATM or
with a check that accesses your credit card account do
not qualify.

3. You must not yet have fully paid for the purchase.
If all of the criteria above are met and you are still dissatisfied
with the purchase, contact us in writing (or electronically) at the
address or website listed above. While we investigate, the same
rules apply to the disputed amount as discussed under What
To Do If You Find a Mistake on Your Statement. After we
finish our  investigation, we  will  tell you our decision. At  that
point, if we think you owe an amount and you do not pay we
may report you as delinquent.

us to the terms and conditions stated in this Agreement. If you do
not wish to be bound by this Agreement, do not use the credit card
and contact us to let us know that you wish to cancel your credit card

Liability of All Cardholders and Authorized Users
You understand that you are liable for the payment of all sums
due under this Agreement. If there is more than one borrower or
authorized user on this account, each person, individually, and
all persons jointly are obligated to repay all sums due under this
Agreement. You agree that all statements made in your application
for your credit card were for the purpose of obtaining credit and are
true, correct, and complete to the best of your knowledge and belief.
Credit Limit
This Agreement establishes a credit card account for you with an
open end line of credit. We will establish a credit limit for you, and
may increase or decrease that credit limit from time to time. We have
provided you with a separate written disclosure stating the credit
limit for purchases and cash advances on your account, and that
disclosure is made a part of this Agreement by this reference. Your
monthly statements will show the amount of credit available to you
for purchases and cash advances as of the statement date. We will
give you written notice of any change in your credit limit. If your
credit limit is decreased for any reason, any subsequent request for a
credit limit increase will be subject to credit application and approval.
You agree not to use your account in any way which would make the
unpaid balance of your account or cash advances on your account
exceed your credit limit. You also agree to pay us the amount of any
transactions on your account in excess of your credit limit along with
your regular minimum payment at your next scheduled payment due
date. Purchases and advances are subject to daily limits that may
restrict the full use of your Credit Limit.

Personal Identification Number
A Personal Identification Number (PIN) may be obtained by calling
866-955-1347. This PIN may be used by you with your credit card
to obtain a cash advance on your account at any Automated Teller
Machine (ATM) displaying the Mastercard logo or to make purchases
at any designated point of sale (POS) machine. Please keep your PIN
confidential and do not write it on or keep it with your credit card.

Credit Information
You agree that we may re-examine and  re-evaluate your
creditworthiness at any time. You authorize us to obtain, from time
to time, information from others, including, but not limited to credit
reporting agencies, concerning you and your credit accounts. You
also authorize us to respond to requests from others and to provide
information regarding the status and history of your account with us.
However, we are not obligated to release any such information to

anyone unless we are required by law to do so. You agree that we
have the right to refuse future advances under your line of credit or
reduce your credit limit upon re-examination and re-evaluation of your
creditworthiness, should your creditworthiness change significantly.
Change of Name, Address, Employment, Telephone
You agree to promptly report to us any change in your name, address,
employment, or telephone number.

Balance Transfers
Balance transfers are the transfer of balances from other lenders
to your SchoolsFirst FCU credit card and cannot be applied to any
amount you owe under  any  other  credit  agreement  or  account you
have with SchoolsFirst FCU.

Purchases/Balance Transfers/Cash Advances
You may access  your  line  of  credit  by making a purchase  at  a
merchant’s location that accepts the credit card, by requesting a
Balance Transfer orally or electronically, or in writing, or by making
a cash advance. We will not be responsible or liable to you should
anyone refuse to accept or honor your card, or should anyone retain
your card and not return it to you. You may request cash advances
under this Agreement by writing a SchoolsFirst FCU convenience
check; by making a written, telephone or electronic request to us; or
by requesting a cash advance at a financial institution or an ATM that
accepts the credit card. You agree to repay all advances for purchases,
balance transfers, and cash advances made to you or at the request
of a joint borrower or authorized user under this Agreement, and you
understand that all purchases, balance transfers, and cash advances
will be subject to the terms of this Agreement. You agree not to
request advances, balance transfers, or make purchases or use your
account in any way that would make the unpaid balance of your
account exceed your credit limit. Cash advances cannot be used to
pay any amount you owe under this Agreement or under any other
credit agreement or account you have with us now or in the future.
Minimum Monthly Payments
You will receive a statement for each monthly billing period in which
your account has an outstanding or credit balance. The minimum
monthly payment  on  your  account  is calculated at  2%  of  the
statement balance or $25, whichever is greater. If your account
balance is greater than your limit or your account is past due, you
will be billed for the greater of: the minimum monthly payment; or
the past due amount; or the overlimit amount. If the account is not
paid down to the limit or below, the account is subject to closure.
The minimum monthly payment must be received at the payment
center on or before the payment due date reflected on the front of
your monthly billing statement or the payment may be considered
past due. Payments made in excess of the minimum payment will
be applied first to the balance with the highest interest rate, then
successively to each lower interest rate until the excess payment
amount is exhausted. If you have a credit balance on your account
due  to merchant  credits, adjustments  or overpayments, we will
hold and apply this credit balance against future purchases and
cash advances, or refund it at your written request. An increase or
decrease in the Annual Percentage Rate may result in an increase or
decrease in your monthly payment.

Promise to Pay
You agree to pay us, at the payment address stated on the front
of  your  monthly  billing  statement, all sums which  have been
accumulated on your account by you or others with your permission,
together with any finance charges, late charges and any other service
charges computed on your account as set forth in this Agreement.

Authorizations
Most  transactions  require  approval of  funds. Approvals result  in
placing a hold against your credit limit.  We may limit the number
or amount of approvals or purchases and advances per day or deny
transactions when we detect unusual or suspicious activity, even if
you have sufficient credit available. We are not liable for failing to
approve any transaction and we may, although we are not required
to, approve transactions above your available credit. We are not liable
if a merchant, financial institution, or ATM does not honor your card.
Membership Requirement
You must be a Member in good standing to be eligible for a credit
card with us.  We may suspend card privileges, including closing your
account, if you do not maintain your Membership with us in good
standing.

Responsibility for Account
You agree to repay us according to the terms of this Agreement for
all purchases, advances, finance charges, fees and collection costs, if
any, arising from the use of this account by you or any other person
you permit to use your card and/or account (even if that person
exceeded the amount for which you gave permission). If you decide
to close your account, please notify us orally or in writing and return
all card(s) on the account. You remain liable for any transactions to
the account that we cannot prevent after you notify us. Any person
using the account and/or card is jointly and severally responsible for
all charges on the account.

Lost, Stolen or Unauthorized Use
It is important to continually monitor your monthly statements to
identify any unauthorized transactions. If your card is lost or stolen,
or you believe that someone has accessed or may access money
from your card without your permission, notify us immediately. If
you notice unauthorized or fraudulent activity on your card, notify
us immediately. Notify us at the phone number or address listed on
your statement under “How to Reach Us”. See Your Billing Rights for
further information. If your card is used fraudulently, you agree to
assist us in our investigation.

Annual Percentage Rate
SchoolsFirst FCU has a loan program, which features a range of
interest rates for some of its consumer loans. A rate is based on a
variety of factors, including the applicant’s credit rating.
This Agreement  establishes  the  Annual  Percentage  Rate  for
Purchases,  Balance Transfers and Cash Advances under  this  credit
card  program. We  have provided  you  with  a  separate written
disclosure stating the Annual Percentage  Rate  that  will apply  to
purchases, balance transfers, and  cash advances  on your  account.
That disclosure is made part of this Agreement by this reference.
Annual Percentage Rate - Variable Rate Credit Program
The Annual Percentage Rate is subject to change monthly on the
first day of the billing cycle. Note that an increase in the Annual
Percentage Rate may result in greater interest charges and a larger
monthly payment.
We reserve the right to waive a change in your Annual Percentage
Rate when such a change can be made, but such waiver shall
not be construed as a waiver of our right to change the Annual
Percentage Rate at a future date when entitled to do so.
The rate is determined by adding an index plus a margin. The index
is the highest “Prime Rate” as reported in the “Money Rates” tables
of the online version of The Wall Street Journal on the first business
day of the month preceding the start date of each current billing

cycle. The tier and margin, and subsequently the APR you receive,
is determined  by  your  creditworthiness.  The maximum Annual
Percentage Rate is 18.00%.

Annual Percentage Rate - Penalty Rate
If your credit card account is delinquent 60 days, we will increase
your Annual Percentage Rate on the entire balance to 17.90%. The
Penalty APR will continue to apply unless you make 6 consecutive
minimum payments  when  due  (beginning  with  the billing  cycle
immediately following the application of the Penalty APR) and do not
exceed your credit limit during that time period. If these requirements
are met, your credit card rate will be lowered to reflect your original
tier.

Monthly Periodic Rate
The Monthly Periodic Rate is determined by dividing the Annual
Percentage Rate by twelve (12 months in a year).

Calculation of Interest Charges
Interest Charges for each monthly billing cycle will be calculated
by multiplying the Average Adjusted Daily Balance by the Monthly
Periodic Rate. We will calculate your Average Adjusted Daily Balance
as follows: We take the outstanding balance (all amounts you owe)
at the start of the day. Then, in the sequence in which the amount
post to your account, we add the amount(s) of all debits and subtract
the amount(s) of all payments and credits which post to your account
that day. After applying payments and credits, we subtract any
amount of late charge, interest charge, and any other charges that
remain unpaid.
The result is the adjusted daily balance for that day. We add together
all the adjusted daily balances for each day in the billing cycle and
divide the total by the number of days in the billing cycle. The result
is the Average Adjusted Daily Balance for that billing cycle.

Interest Charges are imposed only if you do not pay in full the new
balance for Purchases shown on your Periodic Statement within 25
days  of the end  of the statement  period.  However, interest  charges
will be assessed and will accrue on any cash advance (see Purchases/
Cash Advances) from the date that such cash advance transaction is
posted to your account to the date the cash advance balance is paidin
full or the Statement Closing Date whichever comes first, even if
payment of the entire New Balance is received by us by the Payment
Due Date. In other words, there is no time period within which credit
extended to you by a cash advance may be repaid without incurring
an interest charge.

Late Charge
If the minimum payment due is not received by the Credit Union
within 15 days after the payment due date, a late charge of $25 will
be imposed.

Additional Fees and Service Charges

We may charge additional service charges for the following:

•   Each draft copy that you request: $10

•  Additional  copies  of  your  monthly  billing  statement:

$2 (per statement)

•  Any payment  instrument  or method  including  check, in-
person, ACH or other electronic transaction returned to us
for any reason: $20

•  Researching transactions occurring prior to your most
recent account statement: $20 per hour, minimum $20

•  Convenience check stop payment: $15
•  Balance transfer stop payment fee: $15
•   Each request to have a credit card delivered by courier: $20

Change in Terms
This Agreement is the contract which applies to all transactions on
your Account, even though the sales, Cash Advance, credit, or other
documents you sign, agree to, or receive, may contain different
terms. We may amend, modify, add to, or delete from this Agreement
any term, condition, service, or feature at any time, including the
amount  or  calculation  of  INTEREST CHARGES. Unless  we  state
otherwise, the change will affect any unpaid balance outstanding
and any subsequent transactions. A notice will be mailed to your last
known mailing address or sent through email (if you have consented
to receive electronic communications) at least 45 days prior to the
effective date of the change as required by federal or other law. When
a notice of change in terms is required, it may be sent as late as the
effective date of the change when the change has been agreed to in
writing by you. Rates are based on approved credit.

Cancellation of Card

You may cancel your card at any time in writing, enclosing all cards
on  your account  cut  in two.  Cancellation  of  the  card will end  all
charging privileges. We have the right to revoke your right to use
the credit card at any time. We can do this with or without cause
and without giving you notice. We may list revoked credit cards in
a cancellation bulletin or otherwise inform firms honoring the credit
card  that the  credit  card issued  to you  has  been  revoked or
cancelled. If we revoke  the credit card or it expires, you  must
return it to us if we so request. Also, if a firm that accepts the credit
card asks you to surrender an expired or revoked credit card, you
must do so. You may not use the credit card after it has expired or
after it has been revoked. Cancellation or revocation of your credit
card will not affect your obligation to pay any amounts that may
be due under this Agreement.
