This  Priority  Banking  Priority  Rewards  Credit  Card  Agreement 
(“Agreement”) will cover any Platinum MasterCard®, Platinum Visa®, World 
MasterCard  or  World  Elite  MasterCard  account  (individually  or  collectively 
called “Credit Card account”) you have with us. By requesting or accepting 
a  Credit  Card  account,  you  agree  to  be  bound  by  all  the  terms  of  this 
Agreement.  In  this  Agreement,  the  words  “you”  or  “your”  mean  everyone 
who has requested or accepted a Credit Card account with us. The words 
“we,” “us,” “our,” or “Bank” mean First Hawaiian Bank. 
1.  Use. Your Platinum MasterCard, Platinum Visa card, World MasterCard 
or World Elite MasterCard (individually or collectively called “Card”) may be 
used as a credit card for purchases of goods or services from participating 
merchants  (“Purchases”)  or  to  get  Cash  Advances  from  us  or  any  other 
financial  institution  displaying  the  “MasterCard”  or  “Visa”  logo,  or  to 
purchase certain items such as traveler's cheques, foreign currency, money 
orders, wire transfers, lottery tickets, or (except as noted below) funds to be 
used  for  wagers  or  gambling  (all  of  which  are  collectively  referred  to  as 
“Cash Advances”) up to your Credit Limit/Revolve Line.   

You  can  also  obtain  a  Cash  Advance  by  writing  a  special  check 
(“Convenience  Check”),  which  accesses  the  available  Cash  Advance  limit 
on  your  Credit  Card  account.    Convenience  Checks  are  available  from  us 
upon  request,  or  we  may  periodically  provide  Convenience  Checks  as  a 
special promotion. If you use a Convenience Check available upon request, 
all of the terms of this Agreement applicable to Cash Advances will apply to 
the Convenience Check.  If we offer a special promotion, we will explain to 
you  any  special  terms  of  the  use  of  the  Convenience  Checks.    The  Cash 
Advance  from  a  Convenience  Check  will  be  posted  to  your  Credit  Card 
account  when  the  Convenience  Check  reaches  us.  The  Convenience 
Check fee described on page 1 of this Agreement will be imposed on each 
Convenience  Check  you  write.  If  you  stop  payment  on  a  Convenience 
Check,  your  Credit  Card  account  will  be  charged  the  fee  shown  in  the 
paragraph of this Agreement called “Other Fees."  

From  time  to  time  we  may  offer  a  special  balance  transfer  promotion, 
which  is  an  opportunity  to  make  a  Cash  Advance  to  pay  the  balance  on 
another loan you have, by transferring the other loan balance to your Credit 
Card account.  If we offer a balance transfer promotion, at that time we will 
explain to you the terms of the promotion.  Unless we tell you otherwise, all 
the  references  in  this  Agreement  to  balance  transfers  will  apply  to  any 
special balance transfer promotion offered.  

Your  Card  may  also  be  used  in  certain  automated  terminals  to  gain 
access  to  your  First  Hawaiian  Bank  checking,  savings,  and  Credit  Card 
accounts.  

Your  Card  and  Credit  Card  account  may  be  used  only  for  valid  and 
lawful  purposes.  You  may  not  use  your  Card  (i)  to  make  Purchases  or 
obtain  Cash  Advances  for  any  illegal  transaction,  or  (ii)  for  any  internet  or 
online  gambling  transactions.  Transactions  for  online  or  internet  gambling 
will  not  be  approved.  If  you  use  your  Card  for  any  illegal  or  prohibited 
transaction, this Agreement also applies to such transaction and you agree 
to  pay  any  and  all  amounts  related  to  such  transaction  pursuant  to  the 
terms of this Agreement. We may, in our sole discretion, restrict the use of 
or  terminate  your  Card  if  we  notice  excessive  use  of  your  Card  or  other 
suspicious  activities  or  if  we  reasonably  believe  the  Card  is  or  has  been 
used for one or more illegal or prohibited transactions. 

We  have  no  responsibility  for  the  failure  of  any  machine,  merchant, 
financial  institution,  or  any  other  party  to  honor  your  Card.  If  you  use,  or 
allow  someone  else  to  use  the  Card  or  Credit  Card  account  for  any  other 
purpose,  you  will  be  responsible  for  such  use  and  may  be  required  to 
reimburse us for all amounts or expenses we pay as a result of such use. 
2.  Special  Priority  Rewards  Program.    The  Priority  Rewards  Program 
(the "Program") is the reward benefits program established and maintained 
by  Bank  with  redemption  services  provided  by  a  third  party  provider 
selected  by  Bank.    In  addition  to  the  other  terms  and  conditions  of  this 
Agreement,  the  terms  and  conditions  set  forth  in  the  Priority  Rewards 
Program Agreement provided to you with this Agreement shall also apply to 
your Card. 

Bank  reserves  the  right  to  terminate  the  Program  or  to  change  the 
terms and conditions of the Program at any time without prior notice.  This 
means  Bank  may  change,  among  other  things,  the  rules  regarding 
redemption of points, or the restrictions on the use of rewards.  Bank also 
has  the  right  to  add  or  delete  benefits  and  services  to  your  Credit  Card 
account at any time. 
3.  Credit  Limit/Revolve  Line.  We  will  notify  you  of  your  Credit 
Limit/Revolve Line for each Credit Card account you have with us, which is 
the total amount of credit we agree to extend to you at any one time.  Your 
Credit  Limit/Revolve  Line  will  also  include  a  separate  limit  for  Cash 
Advances.    Your  Credit  Limit/Revolve  Line  and  Cash  Advance  limit  are 
listed  on  your  monthly  periodic  statement. 
  Your  available  Credit 
Limit/Revolve  Line  is  the  amount  of  your  total  Credit  Limit/Revolve  Line 
minus  the  sum  of  your  New  Balance,  any  authorized  Purchases,  Cash 
Advances and Balance Transfers that have not posted to your Account, and 
any  payments  that  have  not  cleared.    You  may  apply  to  increase  your 
Credit Limit/Revolve Line, and we reserve the right to lower it without prior 
notice to you.  

You agree that you will not let your total charges, including Purchases, 
Cash Advances, FINANCE CHARGES (including but not limited to interest, 
Foreign  Transaction  Fees,  Cash  Advance,  Balance  Transfer  and 
Convenience  Check  Transaction  Fees),  late  charges,  membership  fees, 
and other fees that may be due, exceed your Credit Limit/Revolve Line.  If 
you exceed your Credit Limit/Revolve Line, you will be considered to have 
exceeded your Credit Limit/Revolve Line for all purposes of the Agreement, 
and  we  may  reduce  the  available  Credit  Limit/Revolve  Line  of  any  other 
Credit Card account you have with us until such time as the excess amount 
is paid. 

You  are  responsible  for  keeping  track  of  your  New  Balance  and  your 
available  Credit  Limit/Revolve  Line.    We  may  but  are  not  required  to 
approve  transactions  above  your  Credit  Limit/Revolve  Line  up  to  a  certain 
percentage of your Credit Limit/Revolve Line which we establish from time 
to  time  for  you  based  on  our  established  evaluation  criteria.    If  we  do 
approve those transactions, those transactions will not increase your Credit 
Limit/Revolve Line.  You are responsible for repaying all over-limit amounts 
and FINANCE CHARGES will be assessed on those amounts.   

For security reasons, we may limit the number or amount of Purchase, 
Cash  Advance  and/or  Convenience  Check  transactions  that  may  be 

accomplished  with  your  Card  or  Credit  Card  account.    We  may  also  limit 
authorizations to make Purchases or obtain Cash Advances if we consider 
it  necessary  to  verify  collection  of  Payments  received  on  your Credit Card 
account.  

World/World  Elite  MasterCard  Revolve  Line.    Amounts  over  your 
Revolve Line may be referred to as a non-revolving line.  The Revolve Line 
is  the  maximum  amount  upon  which  you  may  defer  payment  on  your 
account,  subject  to  the  minimum  required  payment  that  must  always  be 
paid on time.  There is no pre-set spending limit for your account.  With no 
pre-set spending limit, you have the flexibility to make purchases in excess 
of  your  stated  Revolve  Line.    However,  having  a  no  pre-set spending limit 
does  not  mean  unlimited  spending.    Instead,  each  charge  is  evaluated 
based  on  the  spending  and  payment  patterns  on  the  account,  merchant 
type, information from consumer credit reports obtained from credit bureaus 
including  your  experience  with  other  creditors,  and  our  understanding  of 
your  resources.    Without  limiting  the  foregoing,  we  may  also  decline  an 
authorization  request  for  any  transaction  at  any  time  as  described  in  the 
paragraph  of  this  Agreement  called  "Authorizing  Transactions."  We  may 
also  request  additional  information  from  you  at  any  time  to  evaluate  a 
transaction request or your use of the account in general.  In addition, all of 
the  provisions  above  in  this  section  apply.  Your  World/World  Elite 
MasterCard account may provide additional benefits and features and may 
have  additional  charges  that  will  be  described  in  separate  documentation 
for the World/World Elite MasterCard program, all of which is incorporated 
by this reference.  You authorize us to enroll you in benefits and programs 
that we may offer from time to time associated with your account, including 
without limitation benefits and programs that we offer exclusively to holders 
of World/World Elite MasterCard accounts.  Accessing some of the benefits 
and services under the World/World Elite MasterCard program may involve 
charges to your account.  You hereby authorize Priority Pass, Inc. to charge 
your  account  for  all  fees  incurred  when  you  access  benefits  under  the 
World/World  Elite  MasterCard  program,  as  those  fees  may  change  from 
time  to  time.    Without  limiting  the  foregoing,  you  authorize  Priority  Pass, 
Inc.  to  charge  your  account  for,  and  you  agree  to  pay,  all  charges  for 
accessing  airport  lounges  as  part  of  the  Priority  Pass  program  (currently 
$27  per  cardholder  or  guest)  if  offered  for  your  account.    You  are 
responsible for all such charges, even if your account has been closed for 
any reason. 
4.  Temporary Reduction of Credit Limit/Revolve Line. Merchants, such 
as car rental companies and hotels, may request prior credit approval from 
us for an estimated amount of your Purchases, even if you ultimately do not 
pay by credit. If our approval is granted, your available Credit Limit/Revolve 
Line will temporarily be reduced by the amount authorized by us. If you do 
not ultimately use your Credit Card account to pay for your Purchases or if 
the actual amount of Purchases posted to your Credit Card account varies 
from  the  estimated  amount  approved  by  us,  it  is  the  responsibility  of  the 
merchant, not us, to cancel the prior credit approval based on the estimated 
amount.  The  failure  of  the  merchant  to  cancel  a  prior  credit  approval  may 
result in a temporary reduction of your available Credit Limit/Revolve Line, 
but will not increase the amount you owe us under this Agreement. 
5.  Agreement  to  Pay.  When  you  use  your  Card  or  Credit  Card  account, 
or  when  you  permit  anyone  to  use  it,  you  agree to pay the amount of any 
and  all  Purchases  or  Cash  Advances  (including  Purchases  and/or  Cash 
Advances  which  may  have  been  made  in  violation  of  this  Agreement), 
FINANCE  CHARGES  (including  but  not  limited  to  interest,  Foreign 
Transaction  Fees,  Cash  Advance,  Balance  Transfer  and  Convenience 
Check  Transaction  Fees),  late  charges,  membership  fees,  and  other  fees 
that may become due as shown on the periodic statement. If we accept a 
payment  from  you  in  excess  of  your  outstanding  balance,  your  available 
Credit  Limit/Revolve  Line  will  not  be  increased  by  the  amount  of  the 
overpayment  nor  will  we  be  required  to  authorize  transactions  for  an 
amount in excess of your Credit Limit/Revolve Line. 
6.  Periodic  Statement.  Each  month  we  will  send  you  a  periodic 
statement  for  each  Credit  Card  account  you  have  with  us  covering  the 
previous billing period. We may not send you a statement if your balance is 
zero and there were no transactions during the billing period. The statement 
will  have  a  “Statement  Closing  Date”  and  a  “Payment  Due  Date,”  and  will 
show,  among  other  things,  your  “Previous  Balance,”  your  “New  Balance,” 
and  your  minimum  monthly  payment,  which  will  be  shown  as  “Minimum 
Payment  Due.”    The  periodic  statement  is  part  of  this  Agreement.  If  you 
choose to receive periodic statements electronically, the statements will be 
deemed  to  have  been  sent  to  you  when  they  are  first  made  available  for 
you to view online. 
7.  Payment. You must make a payment by the “Payment Due Date.” You 
have two choices: You may pay the entire “New Balance” or you may pay in 
installments by paying at least the “Minimum Payment Due.” All payments 
must be made in the lawful money of the United States of America.  When 
your payment is properly received, we will apply your Minimum Payment as 
permitted  by  law.  If  you  make  a  payment  in  excess  of  the  Minimum 
Payment,  the  excess  amount  will  be  applied  first  to  your  balance  with  the 
highest  ANNUAL  PERCENTAGE  RATE.    Any  remaining  amount  of  your 
excess  payment  will  be  applied  to  the  balance  with  the  next  highest 
ANNUAL  PERCENTAGE  RATE,  and  so  on.  Upon  confirmation  of 
collection,  we  will  add  any  Cash  Advances  or  Purchases  repaid  to  your 
available  Credit  Limit/Revolve  Line;  however,  in  the  event  of  payment  by 
personal  or  business  check,  we  may  delay  replenishing  your  available 
Credit Limit/Revolve Line until your check clears.  This means that you may 
not have access to all or part of the Credit Limit/Revolve Line until we have 
collected  the  funds  by  which  you  have  made  payment  on  the  account.  If 
payments  are  made  by  certified  or  cashier’s  check,  electronic  funds 
transfer, automated clearing house, or other means that provide immediate 
collected  funds,  we  may  waive  the  right  to  delay  restoration  of  the  Credit 
Limit/Revolve Line. 

Payments must be mailed to the BankCard Center address specified in 
your  statement.  Payments  must  reach  our  BankCard  Center  by  5:00  p.m. 
HST  during  our  regular  business  day  in  order  to  be  credited  on  that  date. 
Payments received after the cutoff time of 5:00 p.m. HST will be credited as 
of  the  following  business  day.  If  you  make  a  payment  in  person  at  our 
branches with the assistance of a branch employee prior to regular closing 
time for the branch, the payment will be credited as of the date received.  If 
you  make  a  payment  by  any  means  other  than  by  mail  to  our  BankCard 
Center  (including  payments  made  by  using  FHB  Online),  crediting  of  your

payment may be delayed. 

From time to time, we may let you skip or reduce one or more monthly 
payments  during  a  year  and/or  we  may  temporarily  reduce  or  eliminate 
certain FINANCE CHARGES on all or a portion of your Credit Card account 
balance or offer you other special terms. If we do, we will advise you of the 
scope and duration of the applicable skip or promotional feature. When the 
skip or promotional feature ends, your regular rates and all the terms of the 
Agreement will resume. 
8.  Minimum  Payment–Late  Charge.  At 
the 
“Minimum  Payment  Due”  must  be  received  by  us  by  the  “Payment  Due 
Date.”  If  it  is  not,  we  may  apply  the  late  charge  shown  on  page  1  (if 
permitted  by  law),  unless  such  charge  would  result  in  an  interest  charge 
greater  than  the  maximum  allowable  by  law,  in  which  case  we  will  only 
charge  the  maximum  allowable  rate.  The  “Minimum  Payment  Due”  will 
include the amount calculated by using the table shown below, and will also 
include any amount past due on your account.  Your statement will include 
the past due amounts as part of the “Minimum Payment Due.”  

the  amount  of 

least 

“New Balance” 
$  0.01 – $24.99 
$25.00 or more 

“Minimum Payment Due” 

Entire “New Balance” 
 $25 or 3% of “New Balance”, 
whichever is greater 

9.  When  You  Must  Pay  to  Avoid  Interest  Charges.  There  may  be 
different  treatment  of  interest  charges  for  Purchases  and  Cash  Advances, 
even  though  they  are  computed  the  same  way.  You  may  avoid  paying  an 
interest  charge  on  Purchases  if  you  pay  the  entire  New  Balance  early 
enough  to  reach  us  by  the  Payment  Due  Date.  If  we  do  not  receive  the 
entire  New  Balance  by  the  Payment  Due  Date,  the  interest  charge  will  be 
charged on Purchases from the date of the transaction. Interest charges on 
Cash  Advances  begin  on  the  transaction  date  of  each  Cash Advance and 
will  be  assessed  even  if  your  entire  New  Balance  is  paid  by  the  Payment 
Due Date. 
10.  Computing  Your  Interest  Charge.  We  figure  the  interest  charge  on 
your account by applying the periodic rate to the “Average Daily Balance” of 
Purchases  and  “Average  Daily  Balance”  of  Cash  Advances,  including 
current transactions. 

is  equivalent 

.0493%,  which 

a.  Average  Daily  Balance.  To  get  the  “Average  Daily  Balance”  of 
Purchases, we take the beginning balance of your Credit Card account 
each  day,  add  any  new  Purchases,  and  subtract  any  Cash  Advances, 
payments,  or  other  credits  which  were  applied  to  Purchases,  unpaid 
FINANCE  CHARGES,  late  charges, membership fees, and other fees. 
If  you  paid  the  Purchases  balance  in  full  by  the  Payment  Due  Date  in 
the  previous  billing  cycle,  in  the  current  billing  cycle  we  will  credit 
payments  otherwise  applicable  to  Purchases  based  on  our  allocation 
method  as  of  the  first  day  of  the  current  billing  cycle.  These 
computations give us the Purchases daily balance. To get the “Average 
Daily Balance” of Cash Advances, we take the beginning balance each 
day,  add  any  new  Cash  Advances,  and  subtract  any  Purchases, 
payments,  or  other  credits  which  were  applied  to  Cash  Advances, 
unpaid  FINANCE  CHARGES,  late  charges,  membership  fees,  and 
other  fees.  This  gives  us  the  Cash  Advances  daily  balance.  Then  we 
add  up  all  of  the  Purchases  or  Cash  Advance  daily  balances  for  the 
billing period and divide each total by the number of days in the billing 
period. This gives us the “Average Daily Balances.” 
b.  Figuring the Interest Charge. We compute the interest charge by 
multiplying  these  Average  Daily  Balances  by  the  Daily  Periodic  Rate, 
and  then  we  multiply  the  result  by  the  number  of  days  in  the  billing 
period.  To  determine  the  Daily  Periodic  Rate,  we  divide  the  ANNUAL 
PERCENTAGE  RATE  in  effect  for  the  billing  period  by  365.      Your 
Credit  Card  account  is  made  on  a  Variable  Rate  basis  for  Purchases, 
and  the  ANNUAL  PERCENTAGE  RATE  and  Daily  Periodic  Rate  for 
Purchases  are  described  in  the  paragraph  of  this  Agreement  below 
called “Variable Rate.” The Daily Periodic Rate for Cash Advances is a 
Fixed  Rate  of 
to  an  ANNUAL 
PERCENTAGE RATE of 18.00%. 
c.  Variable  Rate.  The  current  ANNUAL  PERCENTAGE  RATE  for 
Purchases  is  shown  on  page  1  of  this  Agreement.  The  Daily  Periodic 
Rate  for  Purchases  is  .0418%.  The  Daily  Periodic  Rate  and  the 
corresponding  ANNUAL  PERCENTAGE  RATE  may  change  (by 
increasing or decreasing)  on the first day of each of your billing cycles 
that  begin  in  March,  June,  September,  and  December.  Each  date  on 
which  the  rate  of  interest  could  change  is  called  a  “Change  Date.” 
Changes  will  be  based  on  changes  in  the  “Index.”  The  Index  is  the 
highest U. S. Prime Rate published in the “Money Rates” section of The 
Wall Street Journal on the last business day of the calendar month prior 
to the month in which the Change Date occurs. The most recent Index 
is called the “Current Index.” If the Index is no longer available, we will 
choose  a  new  Index  based  upon  comparable  information  and  will  give 
you notice of our choice. Your interest rate for Purchases is based on a 
variable rate equal to the sum of the Current Index plus a “Rate Spread” 
of  10.99  percentage  points.  (The  Rate  Spread  is  also  called  the 
Margin.)  Immediately  before  each  Change  Date  we  will  determine  the 
new  interest  rate  for  Purchases  by  adding  the  Rate  Spread  to  the 
Current  Index.  For  example,  if  the  Current  Index  was  4.25%  and  the 
Rate  Spread  10.99,  the  ANNUAL  PERCENTAGE  RATE  would  be 
15.24%  and  by  dividing  this  percentage  figure  by  365,  we  would 
compute  a  Daily  Periodic  Rate  of  .0418%.  The  new  interest  rate  for 
Purchases  will  become  effective  at  the  start  of  your  first  billing  cycle 
after  the  Change  Date.  The  ANNUAL  PERCENTAGE  RATE  will  not 
exceed the maximum rate permitted by law. The effect of any increase 
in  the  ANNUAL  PERCENTAGE  RATE  and  the  Daily  Periodic  Rate  for 
Purchases  would  be  to  increase  the  amount  of  interest  you  must  pay 
and thus increase your monthly payments. 
Introductory  and  Promotional  Rates.  At  our  discretion,  we  may 
d. 
offer you an introductory or promotional ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE 
for  your  Credit  Card  account.  For  example,  we  may  offer  you  an 
introductory  ANNUAL  PERCENTAGE  RATE  for  Purchases  when  you 
open  your  Credit  Card  account,  or  a  promotional  ANNUAL 
PERCENTAGE RATE for Balance Transfers. The time period for which 
the introductory or promotional ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE applies 
may  be 
introductory  or  promotional  ANNUAL 
PERCENTAGE RATE offer will be subject to the terms of the offer and 

limited.  Any 

this Agreement, including but not limited to the Penalty APR described 
in the paragraph of this Agreement called “Default”. We will provide you 
with  information  on  the  offer,  including the time period the introductory 
or  promotional  ANNUAL  PERCENTAGE  RATE  is  in  effect  in  the

interest charge.

15.  Authorizing  Transactions.    We  reserve  the  right  to  decline  a 
transaction  on  your  account  for  any  reason  including  but  not  limited  to 
operational  considerations,  your  account  being  in  default,  or  we  suspect 
fraudulent  or  unlawful  activity.    We  are  not  responsible  for  any  losses 
incurred if a transaction on your account is declined for any reason, either 
by us or a third party, even if you have sufficient credit available.  
16.  Credit  Insurance  is  Optional.  If  you  choose  to  purchase  credit 
insurance, the premiums will be computed on the Average Daily Balance of 
Purchases  and  Cash  Advance,  including  finance  and  other charges, up to 
$5,000. The cost for credit insurance is 65¢ per $100 of your average daily 
balance of Purchases and Cash Advances. During months when you have 
no  balances, there is no charge.  Credit insurance premiums will be added 
to your Credit Card account as Purchases. 
17.  Default.  We  may  declare  the  entire  balance  for  all  Credit  Card 
accounts  due and payable at once with or without notice or demand if any 
of these events (a “Default”) happens: 

a. 

If you miss a payment under this Agreement or any other obligation 
you owe us; or 
If you violate any terms of this Agreement. 

b. 
If you are in Default, we may terminate your Credit Card account, make 
no  more  additional  loans  or  advances,  and  require  you  to  immediately 
repay  the  entire  unpaid  balance  of  all  amounts  due  on  your  Credit  Card 
account,  including  but  not  limited  to  all  loan  amounts,  late  charges  and 
other  charges  assessed  but  not  paid,  and  all  of  the  FINANCE  CHARGES 
accrued  but  not  paid.  If  we  terminate  your  Credit  Card  account,  your 

PR – Priority and World                                                                           Page 3 of 5                                                                                  Rev. Date 09/01/17 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
obligation to repay the amounts you already owe us would continue.   

At our option, we may also take action short of terminating your Credit 
Card  account.  If your required Minimum Payment (shown on your periodic 
statement as “Minimum Payment Due”) is not received within 60 days of the 
payment  due  date,  we may increase your ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE 
for Purchases and Cash Advances and any applicable promotional rates to 
a  .0493%  Daily  Periodic  Rate  and  an  ANNUAL  PERCENTAGE  RATE 
(“Penalty APR”) of 18.00% fixed for the entire outstanding balance. We will 
send you advance written notice that your ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE 
will  be  increasing.    Your  payments  under  this  Agreement,  including  the 
amount of the FINANCE CHARGE, will increase as a result of the increase 
in  your  Daily  Periodic  Rate  and  ANNUAL  PERCENTAGE  RATE,  and  any 
such  increase  in  your  Daily  Periodic  Rate  and  ANNUAL  PERCENTAGE 
RATE will be shown on your periodic statement. We will reinstate your Daily 
Periodic  Rate  and  ANNUAL  PERCENTAGE  RATE  to  the  rate  set  forth  in 
this  Agreement  once  you  have  made  six  consecutive  Minimum  Payments 
on  or  before  the  due  date,  starting  with  the  first  billing  cycle  after  the 
Penalty APR is imposed. If we take such lesser action initially, we reserve 
the right to terminate your Credit Card account and accelerate all amounts 
due under this Agreement regardless of whether any additional events have 
occurred that would permit termination and acceleration. 

If you have a World/World Elite MasterCard and fail to comply with any 
of  the  special  terms  in  this  Agreement  applicable  to  the World/World Elite 
MasterCard  account,  you  will  be  in  Default  under  this  Agreement  and  we 
will  have  all  of  the  rights  set  forth  in  this  Agreement  as  a  result  of  the 
Default.  In addition to all of those rights, we may in our sole and absolute 
discretion convert your World/World Elite MasterCard account to any other 
type  of  account  that  we  may  offer.    Any  such  conversion  may  cause  the 
elimination  of 
the  World/World  Elite 
MasterCard account without prior notice to you.

Card  to  your  checking  account  or  savings  account  as  though 
you  had  specifically  signed  a  withdrawal  authorization.  If  there 
are insufficient funds in an account to cover such a withdrawal,

obligated to pay us on demand.

for  all 
transactions  in  which  you  use  your  Card  in  an  automated  terminal,  or 
the  use  of  the  Card  by  anyone  else  who  uses  it  with  your  permission. 
Security in use of the Card is provided by the secret code, which we will 
provide  you,  and  the  magnetically  encoded  stripe  on  the  Card.  Please 
keep the Card safe and also protect the secret code. Use the Card and 
the  secret  code  as  instructed  at  all  times.  Please  notify  us  of  any 
mechanical or operating failure in connection with the use of your Card. 
Do  not  permit  anyone  else  to  use  your  Card  and  do  not  disclose  your

Transfers  Involving  Your  Checking  or  Savings  Account.  Call  or 
write  to  us  at  the  telephone  number  and  address  stated  in  the 
paragraph of this Agreement called “Where to Call or Write” as soon as

more information about a transfer listed on the statement or receipt. We 
must  hear  from  you  no  later  than  60  days  after  we  sent  you  the  first 
statement on which the problem or error appeared. When  reporting an 
error or requesting more information:

explain as clearly as you can why you believe it is an error or 
why you need more information.

If you tell us orally, we may require that you send us your complaint 
or  question  in  writing  within  10  business  days.  We  will  determine 
whether  an  error  occurred  within  10  business  days  after  we hear from 
you and will correct any error promptly.  

We  will  tell  you  the  results  of  our  investigation  within  10  business 
days  after  we  hear  from  you  and  will  correct  any  error  promptly.  If  we 
need  more  time,  however,  we  may  take  up  to  45  days  to  investigate 
your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will re-credit your 
account within 10 business days for the amount you think is in error, so 
that  you  will  have  the  use  of  the  money  during  the  time  it  takes  us  to 
complete  our  investigation.  If  we  ask  you  to  put  your  complaint  or 
question in writing and we do not receive it within 10 business days, we 
may not re-credit your account. 

We  will  tell  you  the  results  within  three  business  days  after 
completing  our  investigation.  If  we  determine  that  there  was  no  error, 
we  will  send  you  a  written  explanation.  You  may  ask  for  copies  of 
documents that we used in our investigation. 
i.  Our Liability for Failure to Make Transfers. If we do not properly 
complete  a  transfer  to  or  from  your  account  on  time  or  in  the  correct 
amount according to our agreement with you, we will be liable for your 
losses  or  damages.  However,  there  are  some  exceptions.  We  will  not 
be liable, for instance:

your account to make the transfer; 
If  the  transfer  would  go  over  the  credit  limit  on  your  overdraft 
line; 
If  the  automated  terminal  where  you  are  making  the  transfer 
does not have enough cash; 
If  the  automated  terminal  was  not  working  properly  and  you 
knew about the breakdown when you started the transfer; 
If  circumstances  beyond  our  control  (such  as  fire  or  flood) 
prevent  the  transfer,  despite  reasonable  precautions  we  have 
taken; or 
If  your  account  does  not  contain  enough  money  because  we 
have placed a hold on some items or the account is subject to 
legal process. 

vii.  There may be other exceptions. 

j.  Disclosing  Account  Information  to  Third  Parties.  We  may 
disclose information to third parties about your account or the transfers

iv. 

19.  ATM  Safety.  It  is  important  to  be  aware  of  your  surroundings  when 
using an ATM, especially at night. When you are using an ATM, you should 
secure any cash you withdraw before leaving the ATM. If you need to use 
an ATM at night, consider taking someone you know with you, and only use 
an  ATM  that  is  well-lit  and  unobstructed  from  view.  If  anything  appears  to 
be  suspicious,  do  not  use  the  ATM.  Always  call  911  in  the  event  of  an 
emergency  or  to report any suspicious activity.  If you have any questions 
or comments about the safety of any of our ATMs, please call us on Oahu 
at (808) 844-4444 or 1-888-844-4444 from the neighbor islands, Guam, the 
CNMI or Continental U.S. 
20.  Lost or Stolen Card; Your Liability for Unauthorized Use. Tell us at

best way of keeping your possible losses down.

certain  automated  terminal  services  are  disclosed  in  the  paragraph  of 
this Agreement called “Other Fees.”

unauthorized  use  of  your  Card  as  a  credit  card  that  occurs  after  you 
notify us at the telephone number or address stated in the paragraph of 
this  Agreement  called  “Where  to  Call  or  Write,”  orally  or  in  writing,  of 
loss,  theft,  or  possible  unauthorized  use.  In  any  case,  your  liability  for 
unauthorized use of your Card as a credit card will not exceed $50.00.

ii. 

iii. 

If  you  tell  us  within  two  business  days,  you  can  lose  no  more 
than $50 if someone used your Card at an automated terminal 
without your permission. 
If you do not tell us within two business days after you learn of 
the loss or theft of your Card and we can prove that if you had 
told us, we could have stopped someone from using your Card 
at  an  automated  terminal  without  your  permission,  you  could 
lose as much as $500. 
If  you  do  not  notify  us  at  all,  you  could  lose  all  the  money  in 
your  checking  and  savings  accounts  plus  your  maximum 
overdraft line of credit. 

v. 

iv.  Also, if your statement shows transfers that you did not make, 
tell  us  at  once.  If  you  do  not  tell  us  within  60  days  after  the 
statement was mailed to you, you may not get back any money 
you  lost  after  the  60 days if we can prove that we could have 
stopped someone from taking the money if you had told us in 
time. 
 If  a  good  reason  (such  as  a  long  trip  or  a  hospital  stay)  kept 
you from telling us, we will extend the time periods. 
21.  Where  to  Call  or  Write.  If  you  believe  your  Card  has  been  lost  or 
stolen  or  that  someone  has  transferred  or  may  transfer  money  from  your 
account  or  otherwise  use  your  Card  or  Credit  Card  account  without  your 
permission,  call:  (808)  847-4444  on  Oahu;  Neighbor  Islands,  Guam, 
Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI), or Continental U.S

Department, P.O. Box 1959, Honolulu, Hawaii 96805. 
22.  Our Business Days. Our business days are Monday through Friday,  
except for bank holidays. 
23.  Credit Investigation and Disclosure. You authorize us, both now and 
in  the  future,  to  check  your  credit  and  employment  history  and  to  release 
information  about  our  credit  experience  with  you  in  response  to  legitimate 
credit  inquiries.  If  you  believe  that  we  have  incorrect  information  or  have 
reported inaccurate information about you to a credit bureau, please call us 
at (808) 847-4444 (Oahu) or call toll-free at 1-800-342-2778. 
24.  Security Interest. We have no security for any amounts which become 
due  under  this  Agreement  unless  you  have  given  us  a  specific  security 
interest  in  connection  with  the  Agreement,  which  is  described  on  the 
Supplement attached to this Agreement. 
25.  Collection.  You  promise  to  pay  all  collection  costs,  including,  without 
limitation, mailing and delivery charges, reasonable lawyers’ fees and court 
costs at trial and on appeal, all as permitted by law. 
26.  If There are More Than One of You. Each of you individually, or all of 
you  together,  will  be  liable  under  this  Agreement.  We  may  collect  from  or 
sue any one of you, or make any settlements or extensions with any one of 

you,  without  giving  up  our  rights  against  the other(s). You understand that 
any  one  of  you  can  make  Purchases  or  get  Cash  Advances  under  this 
Agreement which will be binding upon all of you. 
27.  No  Waiver  of  Rights.  If  we  choose  to  waive  any  of  the  terms  or 
conditions  of  this  Agreement  on  a  case-by-case  basis,  such  as  by  not 
declaring the entire balance due when the minimum monthly payment has 
not been made on time, it does not mean that we have waived, or given up, 
our right to exercise any of our rights or remedies under this Agreement in 
the future. We are not required to use any particular kind of demand or  
notice in order to collect amounts due to us under this Agreement. No  
indulgence  or  acceptance  by  us  of  delinquent  or  partial  payments 
constitutes a waiver of our rights or of any provision of this Agreement. No 
waiver  of  any  existing  default  shall  be  deemed  to  waive  any  subsequent 
default 
28.  Changing Terms. We can change, add to, delete or otherwise modify 
the  terms  of  this  Agreement  at  any  time  in  any  way  permitted by law. We 
will  send  you  advance  notice  of  any  change  to  this  Agreement.    If  the 
change affects use of your Card in an automated terminal, we will give you 
advance  notice  of  the  change  unless  the  change  has  to  be  made 
immediately  for  security  reasons.  A  notice  of  change  we  send  you  will 
describe any right you have to opt out of a particular change, if any, and will 
describe whether a particular change affects your outstanding balance. We 
do  not  have  to  send  a  notice  of  the  change  if  it  favors  you,  such  as  by 
reducing rates, increasing the maximum Credit Limit/Revolve Line, etc.

YOUR BILLING RIGHTS:  Keep This Notice 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: 

First Hawaiian Bank 
P.O. Box 1959 
Honolulu, Hawaii 96805 

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.  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 your balance.  

  We can apply any unpaid amount against your credit limit/revolve 

line. 

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 that 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 you 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, all of 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 at: 

First Hawaiian Bank  
P.O. Box 1959  
Honolulu, Hawaii 96805 

While we investigate, the same rules apply to the disputed amount as 
discussed above.  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.
