How We Will Calculate Your Balance: We use a method called “average daily balance (including new purchases).” See below 
for more details.
LOSS OF INTRODUCTORY APR: We may end your introductory APR and apply the Penalty APR if you make a late payment. 
Billing Rights: Information on your rights to dispute transactions and how to exercise those rights is provided below.

Truth in Lending Disclosures

COST OF CREDIT: You will pay an Interest CHARGE for all advances made against your Account. Interest CHARGES for cash advances and balance 
transfers begin to accrue on the date of the advance. New purchases will not incur an Interest CHARGE on the date they are posted to your Account if you 
have paid the Account in full by the Payment Due Date shown on your previous monthly statement, or if there was no previous balance.

For the first six billing cycles of your Account, you will pay an Introductory Rate INTEREST CHARGE for all advances at the Introductory Rate daily 
periodic rate of .019041% (6.95% ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE). After the introductory rate period, the daily periodic rate for all advances will 
be .030000% (10.95% ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE (the “Standard Rate”). 

If at any time a required minimum payment is three or more billing cycles past due, the ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE for all advances may be increased to 
a Penalty Rate daily periodic rate of .048630% (17.75% ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE). After the Penalty Rate becomes effective, it will apply both to 
current and new balances and it may remain in effect indefinitely. If your minimum payments are made as required for six consecutive months starting on or 
after the next payment due following the Penalty Rate effective date, the Standard Rates for your Account will be restored. 

The INTEREST CHARGE is determined by applying the applicable daily periodic rate to the Average Daily Balance of your Account for each feature 
category, including certain current transactions. Feature categories include purchases, balance transfers, and cash advances. The Average Daily 
Balance is arrived at by taking the beginning balance of each feature category each day and adding any new transactions to the balance, except if 
you have paid your Account in full by the Payment Due Date shown on the previous monthly statement or there is no previous balance, new 
purchases are not added to the purchases balance. Balance transfers may be shown on your statement in the Promotions feature category. When 
determining balances, we may combine feature category balances that have the same periodic rate and other INTEREST CHARGE terms. We then 
subtract any payments or credits and unpaid INTEREST CHARGES allocated to the feature category balance for the day. This gives us the daily 
balance for the feature category. The daily balances for each feature category are then added together and divided by the number of days in the 
billing cycle. The result is the Average Daily Balance for each feature category. The periodic INTEREST CHARGE is determined by multiplying each 
feature category Average Daily Balance by the number of days in the billing cycle and applying the applicable daily periodic rate to the product. The 
total INTEREST CHARGE for each statement period is the sum of the periodic INTEREST CHARGES for each feature category.

No additional Interest CHARGES will be imposed on new purchases shown on your statement if the New Balance shown on the statement is paid in 
full by the Payment Due Date reflected on the statement.  The Payment Due Date is not less than 25 days from the billing cycle closing date shown 
on your statement.
