How We Will Calculate Your Balance: We use a method called "average daily

balance (including new purchases)." For further details, please see Additional

Disclosures, below or the Credit Card Membership Rules that will be provided

to you before you can begin using your new card.

Billing Rights: Information on your rights to dispute transactions and how to

exercise those rights is provided in the Credit Card Membership Rules that will

be provided to you before you can begin using your new card.

ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURES

1. Finance Charges start to accrue on cash advances, convenience checks and balance

transfers as of the date the item is posted to your account. Finance charges for

purchases generally will start to accrue from the date the item is posted to your

account, however, no finance charges will accrue on new purchases if the entire

balance in your account is paid by the due date each month.

2. We figure the interest charge on your account by applying the periodic rate to the

"average daily balance" of your account. To get the "average daily balance" we take

the beginning balance of your account each day, add any new purchases, advances or

fees, and subtract any payments or credits. 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."

3. Your account has a variable rate indexed on the Prime Rate. The rate on your account

for purchases and balance transfers is the Prime Rate plus 5.00% per annum. The rate

on your account for cash advances and convenience checks is the Prime Rate plus

9.00% per annum. Your rate will increase if the Prime Rate increases, but will only

change one time per statement cycle. If the prime rate increases variable APRs (and

corresponding DPRs) will increase. In that case you may pay more interest and may

have a higher minimum payment due. Changes in APRs (increases or decreases) due

to changes in the Prime Rate will be effective on the first day of your next statement

cycle beginning at least two days after the change in the Prime Rate. The Prime Rate

is the prime rate published in the Money Rates column of The Wall Street Journal in

effect for the second business day prior to the beginning of each statement cycle.

Variable rate APRs are based upon the 5.00% Prime Rate in effect on September 19,

2019.
