REVOLVING CHARGE AGREEMENT
This (“Agreement”) governs your Great American Finance Line of Credit agreement funded by FinWise Bank regarding credit extended hereunder. Please read it carefully. By signing this Agreement, you are agreeing to all the terms and conditions in this Agreement.
Definitions. In this Agreement, the words “you” and “your” mean each person who signs this Agreement. The words “we,” “us,” and “our” mean Great American Finance Holdings c/o FinWise Bank, 200 S Michigan Avenue Suite 450, Chicago IL. 60604, and any assignees of this Agreement or our rights under this Agreement. The word “Account” means the line of credit account established and governed by this Agreement. The word “Purchase” refers to a purchase of funds from your Account to purchase goods and services from Retailer.
Promise To Pay. You promise to pay to us all Purchases, interest, fees and all other amounts owing to us in accordance with this Agreement.
Account. Your Account is a credit line that allows you to obtain Purchases to purchase goods and services from time to time on credit from Retailer. You may obtain Purchases for a period of 12 months from the date you sign this Agreement, so long as you have available credit, are not in default under this Agreement, and we have not suspended or revoked your right to obtain additional Purchases. In order to obtain Purchases, you must execute a transaction summary evidencing the purchase at the time of sale, and we will purchase funds on your behalf to Retailer for payment of the goods and services referenced in that transaction summary. After 12 months from the date you sign this Agreement, you will not be able to use the Account to obtain additional Purchases.
Credit Limit. Any Purchases, fees, or other charges added to the Account will reduce the amount of available credit by the amount of the Purchase, fee or other charge. As you repay principal, your available credit will be restored to the extent of such repayment. Payments will not aff ect the credit available to you under the Account, however, until your payment has cleared, and we have received funds from your bank. If we allow you to make Purchases that exceed your Credit Limit, you promise to repay the amount that exceeds your Credit Limit immediately upon demand. We reserve the right to reduce the Credit Limit or otherwise suspend or revoke your right to additional purchases at any time or for any reason, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law. We may also, at our election, increase your Credit Limit at any time. Your account will automatically qualify for a credit limit increase of up to $1,000 if you make your first fi ve payments as scheduled. You may request that we increase your Credit Limit, but we are not required to grant such a request. If you request to increase the Credit Limit, you agree that we may review your creditworthiness at the time of that request by, including, but not limited to, obtaining an updated credit report and other information necessary to analyze your qualifi cations for additional credit. We may elect to honor a Purchase that causes you to exceed your Credit Limit without increasing the Credit Limit, or we may simply decline any transaction that would cause you to exceed the Credit Limit without taking further action. The Account may not be used, and will not be honored, for any transactions other than for Purchases made from us.
Finance Charges. We will impose no interest charges on new Purchases made in the current cycle if you pay the entire new balance (as refl ected on the most recent periodic statement) in full by the due date on your most recent statement, which will be at least 25 days after the close of each billing cycle. If you do not pay your entire new balance in full by the due date on your most recent statement, we will charge interest charges on new Purchases made in the current cycle from the transaction date for those Purchases, or if later, the date of delivery of the goods purchased. Finance charges will accrue at rates not in excess of those permitted by law until all balances subject to fi nance charges are paid in full.
If the Retailer is located in the state of:	We apply the monthly periodic rate of:	ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE
		
MD, NY	2.08%	24.00%, 24.99%
All Other States	2.499%	29.99%
How We Will Calculate Your Balance. To get the average daily balance, we take the beginning balance each day (excluding any accrued, but unbilled Interest Charges), and add any new Purchases, subtract any payments or credits; and make other adjustments as applicable. This gives us the daily balance. Then, we add up all the daily balances for the billing cycle and divide the total by the number of days in the billing cycle. This gives us the average daily balance. Any negative daily balance (a credit balance) will be treated as zero. Except where MI law applies, any unpaid Interest Charges at the end of the billing cycle are added to principal.
Periodic Billing Statements. We will provide a periodic billing statement at the end of each billing cycle in which you have account activity or a credit or debit balance. The periodic billing statement will show your Account balance at the end of the billing cycle refl ected in the statement (“New Balance”), your Minimum Payment Due and other Account information. Unless you notify us of a billing error as provided in “YOUR BILLING RIGHTS” below, you accept your periodic billing statement as an accurate statement of your Account. There will be at least 25 calendar days between billing statements.
Minimum Payment Due. For each billing cycle, you agree to pay at least the Minimum Payment Due shown on your periodic billing statement by the indicated due date (“Payment Due Date”). Your Minimum Payment Due will be calculated as follows:
We will assign a fixed monthly payment amount (Fixed Payment Amount) on each Purchase based on the amount of the Purchase, as reflected in the following schedule:
Purchase Amount	Fixed Payment Amount	Purchase Amount	Fixed Payment Amount	Purchase Amount	Fixed Payment Amount
Up to $500	$25	$2500.01 to $3000	$150	$5000.01 to $5500	$275
$500.01 to $1000	$50	$3000.01 to $3500	$175	$5500.01 to $6000	$300
$1000.01 to $1500	$75	$3500.01 to $4000	$200	$6000.01 to $6500	$320
$1500.01 to $2000	$100	$4000.01 to $4500	$225	$6500.01 to $7000	$350
$2000.01 to $2500	$125	$4500.01 to $5000	$250	$7000.01 to $7500	$375
Your Minimum Payment Due may also include a percentage of any billed and unpaid Interest Charges (except for any deferred interest that has not yet been charged to the Account) and fees. The Minimum Payment Due will be the greater of: (1) $25; or (2) the sum of (a) all Fixed Payment Amounts for each outstanding Purchase; plus (b) 5% of all billed and unpaid Interest Charges (except for any deferred interest that has not yet been charged to the Account) and fees or charges that have been imposed but have not been paid. In addition, the Minimum Payment Due will also include any past due amounts or amounts by which your balance exceeds your Credit Limit, whichever is greater. You may pay more frequently, pay more than the Minimum Payment Due, or pay your entire balance in full at any time without a prepayment penalty. If you pay more than the Minimum Payment Due in any billing cycle, you will still be required to make at least the Minimum Payment Due each billing cycle, unless you have paid your entire balance in full. If you regularly pay more than the Minimum Payment Due, you will pay less in Interest Charges, and it may take less time for you to pay off your balance. We reserve the right to change at any time the manner in which the Minimum Payment Due is calculated, subject to any notices required by applicable law.
Promotional Programs. From time to time, we may make promotional off ers to you, which may include deferred interest programs or reduced annual percentage rate offers, among other promotional terms. For deferred interest programs, Interest Charges will accrue from the date of the Purchase, but will be waived if you pay the entire amount of the Purchase during the promotional period. If you do not pay the full balance of the Purchase during the promotional period, Interest Charges accruing from the time of the Purchase are added to your Account balance. You will be required to pay your Minimum Payment Due during the promotional period and will have to pay more than the Minimum Payment Due to pay the full balance of the Purchase during the promotional period. The specific promotional terms, if offered, are found on the sales slip you received at the time of your transaction. If you are delinquent in paying any amount of a Minimum Payment Due during the promotional period or otherwise fail to meet your obligations under this Agreement during any promotional period, in addition to any other rights we have under this Agreement or under applicable law, we may cancel the promotional off er and apply the terms of this Agreement to any promotional balances, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, and add any accrued Interest Charges to your outstanding balance at that time.
Deferred Interest Promotional Programs. For Deferred Interest Promotional Programs, finance charges will accrue from the date of the transaction or, if later, the date of delivery of the goods purchased, but will be waived if you pay the entire amount of the Purchase during the promotional period. If you do not pay the full balance of the Purchase during the promotional period, finance charges accruing from the time of the Purchase are added to your Account balance. You will be required to pay at least your Minimum Payment Due during the promotional period and will have to pay more than the Minimum Payment Due to pay the full balance of the Purchase during the promotional period.
**Annual Fee. An annual fee of $49 applies to all Accounts used to purchase goods or services other than household furniture. If an annual fee applies to your Account, it will be charged the day we open your Account and each thereafter on the anniversary date. The annual fee will be billed to your account as a Purchase and will accrue interest; it is non-refundable.
Late Payment Fee. You will be charged a Late Payment Fee of $25 if you fail to pay the Minimum Payment Due in full within 10 days of the Payment Due Date shown on your statement.

ARBITRATION CLAUSE: By signing below, Borrower and Lender agree to this Arbitration Clause (“Clause”). This Clause is in question and answer form so it is easier to understand. This Clause is part of this Note and is legally binding.
Question	Short Answer	BACKGROUND AND SCOPE Further Detail
What is a Dispute?	A disagreement	In this Clause, “Dispute” has a broad meaning. “Dispute” includes all claims and disagreements related to my application, this Note, the, the Loan, or my dealings with Lender. It includes claims and disagreements about any prior applications and agreements. It includes claims related to collections, privacy, and customer information. It includes claims and disagreements that usually would be resolved in court. “Dispute” also includes claims and disagreements I have with Related Parties.
Whoe is a “Related Party”?	Usually a person or company related to Lender	“Related Parties” are Lender’s affiliates. They also are employees, directors, officers, shareholders, members, and representatives of Lender and its affiliates. “Related Parties” also means any person or company involved in a Dispute I pursue while I pursue a Dispute with Lender.
What is arbitration?	An alternative to court	In arbitration, a third party arbitrator (“TPA’) solves Disputes in a hearing (“hearing’). It is less formal than a court case.
Is it different from court and jury trials?	Yes	The hearing is private. There is no jury. It is usually less formal, faster, and less costly than a lawsuit. Pre-hearing fact finding is limited. Appeals are limited. Courts rarely overturn arbitration awards.
Can I opt-out of this Clause?	Yes, within 60 days	If I do not want this Clause to apply, I have 60 days from the Loan Date to opt out. To opt out, I must tell Lender in a writing I send to the Notice Address. I must give my name, address, Loan number and Loan Date. I must state that I “opt out” of this Clause. I may not send my notice electronically.
What is this Clause about?	The parties’ agreement to arbitrate Disputes	Lender and I agree that any party may arbitrate or demand arbitration of any Dispute unless I opt out or the law does not allow it.
Who does the Clause cover?	Lender and me	This Clause covers Lender and me. This Clause also applies if I have a Dispute with a Related Party related in some way to my application, this Note, the Vehicle, the Loan, or my dealings with Lender. Related Parties are not bound by this Clause. I may not compel a Related Party to arbitration. A Related Party may compel me to arbitrate Disputes that are covered by this Clause.
What Disputes does the Clause cover?	Most Disputes that normally would go to court (except certain Disputes about this Clause and certain claims involving public injunctive relief)	This Clause covers Disputes that involve Lender (or a Related Party) and me. But, “Disputes” does not include disputes about the validity, coverage, or scope of this Clause or any part of this Clause. These are for a court and not the TPA to decide. In addition, this Clause does not require Lender or me to submit to arbitration a request for injunctive relief under applicable statutes, which relief that has the primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the general public. Claims involving requests for public injunctive relief under applicable statues may be pursued in a court of competent jurisdiction by Lender or me. Except as expressly described in the foregoing sentences, all other Disputes remain subject to this Clause.
Who handles the arbitration?	Usually JAMS	Arbitrations must be conducted under this Clause. The arbitration company will be either: •	JAMS, 620 Eighth Avenue, 34th Floor, New York, NY 10018, www.jamsadr.org; or •	Any other company the parties choose together. If either option is unavailable, the parties may agree to an independent TPA or a court will pick the TPA or arbitration company. No arbitration may be held without Lender’s consent by an arbitration company or TPA that would allow class arbitration under this Clause. The TPA will be selected under the arbitration company’s rules. Unless Lender and I agree otherwise, the TPA must be a lawyer with 10 or more years of experience or a retired judge.
What rules apply to the arbitration?	Usually, the arbitration company rules	If the parties use an arbitration company such as JAMS, that company’s consumer arbitration rules will apply. If the parties chose an independent TPA, then such TPA will follow the JAMS consumer arbitration rules. In any case, the TPA will not apply any state or federal rules of civil procedure or evidence. Arbitration rules that conflict with this Clause do not apply.
Can Disputes be brought to court?	Sometimes	Either party may sue if the other party does not demand arbitration. Lender will not demand arbitration of any lawsuit I bring for myself in small claims court. But, Lender may demand arbitration of any appealed small claims decision or any small claims action brought as a class.
Am I giving up any rights?	Yes	For Disputes subject to this Clause, I give up my right to: 1.	Have juries decide Disputes. 2.	Have courts, other than small claims courts, decide Disputes. 3.	Serve as a private attorney general or in a representative capacity. 4.	Join a Dispute I have with a dispute by other consumers. 5.	Bring or be a class member in a class action or class arbitration. Lender also gives up the right to a jury trial and to have courts decide Disputes Lender wishes to arbitrate.
Can I or anyone else start class arbitration?	No	The TPA may not handle a class or representative Dispute. All Disputes under this Clause must be arbitrated or decided by individual small claims case. This Clause will be void if a court allows the TPA to decide a Dispute on a class basis and such ruling is not reversed on appeal.
What law applies?	The Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”)	The FAA governs this Clause. The TPA must apply law consistent with the FAA. The TPA must honor statutes of limitation and privilege rights. Constitutional standards that apply in court proceedings govern punitive damage awards.
Will anything Borrower does negate this Clause?	No, though I can opt out	This Clause stays in force if I: (1) cancel the Loan; (2) default, refinance, prepay or pay my Loan in full; or (3) go into bankruptcy. I can opt out as described above.
PROCESS
Question	Short Answer	Further Detail
What must be done before starting a lawsuit or arbitration?	Send a written Dispute notice and work to resolve the Dispute	Before starting a lawsuit or arbitration, Claimant must give a Dispute Notice as required above. If I am the Claimant, I or my attorney must sign the Dispute Notice. I must give the Loan number and a contact number for me or my attorney. Collections letters from Lender are Dispute Notices. Each Dispute Notice (other than collections letters) must give at least 30 days to settle the dispute.
How does arbitration start?	Follow the rules of the arbitration company	If the parties do not settle the Dispute within the 30-day period, Claimant may file a small claims case or start arbitration. To start arbitration, the Claimant picks the arbitration company and follows its process. If one party sues or threatens to sue, the other party can demand arbitration. This demand can be made in court papers. It can be made if a party sues on an individual basis and then tries to pursue a class action. Once an arbitration demand is made, no suit can be brought and any current suit must stop.
Will any hearing be held nearby?	Yes	Any in-person hearing must be at a place convenient to me. The TPA may decide that an in-person hearing is not needed. A Dispute may be resolved in writing and by conference call.
What about appeals?	Very limited	The FAA limits appeal rights. For Disputes over $50,000, any party may appeal the award to a panel of three TPAs. The arbitration company or the parties choose the panel. This panel will review anything appealed in the initial award. The panel’s decision will be final, except for any FAA appeal right. Any suitable court may enter judgment upon the TPA panel’s award.
ARBITRATION FEES AND AWARDS		
Question	Short Answer	Further Detail
Who pays arbitration fees?	Usually Lender does	Lender will pay all filing, hearing, and TPA fees if I act in good faith, cannot get a fee waiver, and ask Lender to pay.
When will Lender cover my legal fees and costs?	If I win	If the TPA finds for me, Lender will pay my reasonable fees and costs for attorneys, experts, and witnesses. Lender also will pay these costs if the law or the TPA rules require or if required to enforce this Clause. Even if my Dispute is for a small amount, the TPA will not limit the award of such costs.
Will I ever owe Lender for fees or costs?	If I act in bad faith	The TPA can make me pay Lender’s arbitration, attorney, expert, and witness fees and costs if it finds that I have acted in bad faith (per the Fed. Rules of Civ. Proc. § 11(b) standard). This power does not void this Clause.
Can a failure to resolve a Dispute informally mean a larger recovery for me?	Yes	If Borrower wins the arbitration, Borrower may be entitled to a minimum award of $7,500. To get the minimum award, I first must comply with this Clause. Secondly, the TPA must award money damages to me in an amount that is greater than the last amount I asked for in settlement, if I asked for such amount at least ten days before arbitration began. The base award is separate from attorneys’ fees and expenses, and expert witness costs which I may get. The minimum award applies to all Disputes I raise or could raise. This Clause does not allow multiple awards of $7,500. Settlement demands and offers are confidential. They may not be used in any way by either party except to support a minimum award.
Can an award be explained?	Yes	Within 14 days of the ruling, a party may ask the TPA to explain its ruling. Upon such request, the TPA will explain the ruling in writing.
