How Interest Is Calculated

Your Interest Rate

SECTION II: RATES, FEES AND PAYMENT INFORMATION
JCPENNEY CREDIT CARD ACCOUNT AGREEMENT

The APR for purchases is the prime rate plus 22.74%. We use a daily rate to calculate the interest on the balance
on your account each day. The daily rate for purchases is the APR times 1/365. As of June 1, 2022, the daily
rate for purchases was .07327% (APR 26.74%). Interest will be imposed in amounts or at rates not in excess
of those permitted by applicable law.

Daily Rates May Vary. The APR and the daily rate on your account vary with the market based on the prime
rate. The prime rate for a billing cycle is the highest bank prime loan rate published in The Wall Street Journal in
its Money Rates section on the last business day of the calendar month preceding the first day of the billing cycle.

If the prime rate increases, the daily rate and APR will increase. As a result, interest, your total minimum payment
and the number of payments it would take you to pay off your account balance may increase. We apply any
change in rates because of a prime rate change to your entire account balance. A change in the prime rate will
take effect on the first day of the first billing cycle after the change. We may select a new interest rate index if
the prime rate is not available.

When We Charge Interest

We charge interest on your purchases from the date you make the purchase until you pay the purchase in full.
See exceptions below.

l We will not charge you interest during a billing cycle on any purchases if:

1. You had no balance at the start of the billing cycle; OR

2. You had a balance at the start of the billing cycle and you paid that balance in full by the due date in

that billing cycle.

l We will credit, as of the start of the billing cycle, any payment you make by the due date that we allocate

to purchases if:

1. You had no balance at the start of the previous billing cycle; OR

2. You had a balance at the start of the previous billing cycle and you paid that balance in full by the due

date in the previous billing cycle.

We figure the interest charge on your account separately for each balance type. We do this by applying the
daily  rate  to  the  daily  balance  for  each  day  in  the  billing  cycle.  A  separate  daily  balance  is  calculated  for  the
following balance types, as applicable: purchases and balances subject to different interest rates, plans or special
promotions. See below for how this works.
1. How to get the daily balance: We take the starting balance each day, add any new charges and fees, and
subtract  any  payments  or  credits.  This  gives  us  the  daily  balance.  Credit  insurance  premiums  and  debt
cancellation fees, if any, are not included in the daily balance. Late payment fees are treated as new purchases.

2. How to get the daily interest amount: We multiply each daily balance by the daily rate that applies.
3. How  to  get  the  starting  balance  for  the  next  day:  We  add  the  daily  interest  amount  in  step  2  to  the  daily

balance from step 1.

4. How to get the interest charge for the billing cycle: We add all the daily interest amounts that were charged

during the billing cycle.

We charge a minimum of $2.00 of interest in any billing cycle in which you owe interest. This charge is added
proportionately to each balance type.

We will charge this fee if we do not receive the total minimum payment due on your account by 5 p.m. (ET) on
the due date. This fee is equal to:
1.

$30, if you have paid your total minimum payment due by the due date in each of the prior six billing cycles.
OR
$41, if you have failed to pay your total minimum payment due by the due date in any one or more of the
prior six billing cycles.

2.

How We Calculate Interest

How Fees Work

Late Payment Fee

The late payment fee will not be more than the total minimum payment that was due.

Minimum Payment Calculation
Your total minimum payment is calculated as follows.
The greater of:

1. The sum of:

(a) $30, or $41 (which includes any past due amounts) if you have failed to pay at least the total minimum payment due by the due date in any one

or more of the prior six billing cycles; PLUS

(b) Any credit insurance premiums charged in the current billing cycle.

OR
2. The sum of:

(a) The following amounts, rounded up to the next highest whole dollar:

(i) Any past due amounts; PLUS

2

(ii) 1% of your new balance shown on your billing statement (excluding any balance in connection with a special promotional purchase with a

unique payment calculation); PLUS

(iii) Any late payment fees charged in the current billing cycle; PLUS
(iv) All interest charged in the current billing cycle; PLUS

(b) Any credit insurance premiums charged in the current billing cycle; PLUS
(c) Any payment due in connection with a special promotional purchase with a unique payment calculation.

OR
3. The sum of:

(a) Any unpaid interest; PLUS
(b) Any credit insurance premiums and other insurance premiums charged in the current billing cycle; PLUS
(c) Any payment due in connection with a special promotional purchase with a unique payment calculation; PLUS
(d) Any past due amounts.

In any event, your total minimum payment will never be more than your new balance. Any payment due in connection with a special promotional purchase with
a unique payment calculation will not be increased to, but may be included in the $30 or $41 minimum amount otherwise due on your account.

Special Promotional Financing Offer Information

Credit Limit. You will be assigned a credit limit on your account that we may increase or decrease from time to time. If we approve a purchase that
makes you go over your credit limit, we do not give up any rights under this Agreement and we do not treat it as an increase in your credit limit.

HOW AND WHEN TO MAKE PAYMENTS

When Payments Are Due. You must pay at least the total minimum payment due on your account by 5 p.m. (ET) on the due date of each billing cycle.
Payments received after 5 p.m. (ET) will be credited as of the next day. You may at any time pay, in whole or in part, the total unpaid balance without
any additional charge for prepayment. If you have a balance subject to interest, earlier payment may reduce the amount of interest you will pay. We may
delay making credit available on your account in the amount of your payment even though we will credit your payment when we receive it.

Payment Options. You can pay by mail, online or at a JCPenney Store. JCPenney Stores take payments that you make to them as a convenience to
you. We may not credit those payments to your account until we receive them. Under ordinary circumstances, any payment made at a JCPenney Store
will be credited as of the day you make such payment in the store. We may allow you to make payments over the phone but we will charge you a fee
to make expedited phone payments. Your payment must be made in U.S. dollars by physical or electronic check, money order or a similar instrument
from a bank located in the United States.

How To Make A Payment. You must follow the instructions for making payments provided on your billing statement. If you do not, credit of your
payment may be delayed up to five days. Your billing statement also explains how information on your check is used.

Payment Allocation. We will apply the required total minimum payment to balances on your account using any method we choose. Any payment you
make in excess of the required total minimum payment will be applied to higher APR balances before lower APR balances. Applicable law may require
or permit us to apply excess payments in a different manner in certain situations, such as when your account has a certain type of special promotion.

RESOLVING A DISPUTE WITH ARBITRATION

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IF YOU DO NOT REJECT IT, THIS SECTION WILL APPLY TO YOUR ACCOUNT, AND MOST DISPUTES
BETWEEN YOU AND US, AND/OR PENNEY OPCO, LLC, WILL BE SUBJECT TO INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AS SET FORTH BELOW. THIS MEANS
THAT: (1) NEITHER A COURT NOR A JURY WILL RESOLVE ANY SUCH DISPUTE; (2) YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS
ACTION OR SIMILAR PROCEEDING; (3) LESS INFORMATION WILL BE AVAILABLE; AND (4) APPEAL RIGHTS WILL BE LIMITED.

l What claims are subject to arbitration

1. If you, we, or Penney OpCo, LLC make a demand for arbitration, you, we and/or Penney OpCo, LLC must arbitrate any dispute or claim, including,
but not limited to, statutory, common law, and equitable claims, between you or any other user of your account, and us, our affiliates, agents and/
or Penney OpCo, LLC that relates to your account, including, but not limited to, any dispute or claim involving any purchase or credit made with
or to, or otherwise involving your account, except as noted below. The parties intend for Penney OpCo, LLC to be a third-party beneficiary of this
Arbitration section of this Agreement.

2. We will not require you to arbitrate: (1) any individual case in small claims court or your state’s equivalent court, so long as it remains an individual
case in that court; or (2) a case we file to collect money you owe us. However, if you respond to the collection lawsuit by claiming any wrongdoing,
we may require you to arbitrate.

3. Notwithstanding any other language in this section, only a court, not an arbitrator, will decide disputes about the validity, enforceability, coverage or
scope of this section or any part thereof (including, without limitation, the next paragraph of this section and/or this sentence). However, any dispute
or argument that concerns the validity or enforceability of the Agreement as a whole is for the arbitrator, not a court, to decide.

l No Class Actions

YOU  AGREE  NOT  TO  PARTICIPATE  IN  A  CLASS,  REPRESENTATIVE  OR  PRIVATE  ATTORNEY  GENERAL  ACTION  AGAINST  US  AND/
OR PENNEY OPCO, LLC, IN COURT OR ARBITRATION. ALSO, YOU MAY NOT BRING CLAIMS AGAINST US AND/OR PENNEY OPCO,
LLC, ON BEHALF OF ANY ACCOUNTHOLDER WHO IS NOT AN ACCOUNTHOLDER ON YOUR ACCOUNT, AND YOU AGREE THAT ONLY
ACCOUNTHOLDERS ON YOUR ACCOUNT MAY BE JOINED IN A SINGLE ARBITRATION WITH ANY CLAIM YOU HAVE.

If a court determines that this paragraph is not fully enforceable, only this sentence will remain in force and the remainder will be null and void, and the
court’s determination shall be subject to appeal. This paragraph does not apply to any lawsuit or administrative proceeding filed against us by a state or
federal government agency even when such agency is seeking relief on behalf of a class of borrowers, including you. This means that we will not have
the right to compel arbitration of any claim brought by such an agency.

l How to start an arbitration, and the arbitration process

1. The party who wants to arbitrate must notify the other part(ies) in writing. This notice can be given after the beginning of a lawsuit or in papers filed
in the lawsuit. For arbitration demands against Synchrony Bank, your notice must be sent to Synchrony Bank, Legal Operation, P.O. Box 29110,
Shawnee Mission, KS 66201-5320, ATTN: ARBITRATION DEMAND. For arbitration demands against Penney OpCo, LLC, your notice must be sent
to Registered Agent/Legal Department, 6501 Legacy Drive, Plano, TX 75024, ATTN: ARBITRATION DEMAND. The party seeking arbitration must
select an arbitration administrator, which can be either the American Arbitration Association (AAA), 120 Broadway, Floor 21, New York, NY 10271,
www.adr.org,  1-800-778-7879,  or  JAMS,  620  Eighth  Avenue,  34th  Floor,  New  York,  NY  10018,  www.jamsadr.com,  1-800-352-5267.  If  neither
administrator is able or willing to handle the dispute, then the court will appoint an arbitrator.

2. If a party files a lawsuit in court asserting claim(s) that are subject to arbitration and another party files a motion with the court to compel arbitration,

which is granted, it will be the responsibility of the party asserting the claim(s) to commence the arbitration proceeding.

3. The arbitration administrator will appoint the arbitrator and will tell the parties what to do next. The arbitrator must be a lawyer with at least ten years
of legal experience. Once appointed, the arbitrator must apply the same law and legal principles, consistent with the FAA, that would apply in court,
but may use different procedural rules. If the administrator’s rules conflict with this Agreement, this Agreement will control.

4. The arbitration will take place by phone or at a reasonably convenient location. If you ask us to, we will pay all the fees the administrator or arbitrator
charges, as long as we believe you are acting in good faith. We will always pay arbitration costs, as well as your legal fees and costs, to the extent
you prevail on claims you assert against us in an arbitration proceeding which you have commenced.

l Governing Law for Arbitration

This Arbitration section of your Agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA). Utah law shall apply to the extent state law is relevant under
the FAA. The arbitrator’s decision will be final and binding, except for any appeal right under the FAA. Any court with jurisdiction may enter judgment
upon the arbitrator’s award.

l How to reject this section

You may reject this Arbitration section of your Agreement. If you do that, only a court may be used to resolve any dispute or claim. To reject this section,
you must send us a notice within 60 days after you open your account or we first provided you with your right to reject this section. The notice must
include your name, address and account number, and must be mailed to Synchrony Bank, P.O. Box 965012, Orlando, FL 32896-5012. This is the only
way you can reject this section.
