APRs and Interest Based on APRs
Review your Summary for the APRs that apply to your Account
Variable APRs We add the applicable Margin specified in the Rate Information chart on the
Summary to the Prime Rate to determine Variable APRs. Variable APRs increase or
decrease when the Prime Rate changes but will not exceed any Maximum APR
specified in the Rate Information chart. 7/13/22, 9:16 AM Ballard Designs Credit Card - Legal Docs - Credit Card Agreement
https://d.comenity .net/ballarddesigns/pub/requestCca/requestCca.xhtml 7/22Any APR change will take effect on the first day of the billing period that begins
after the Prime Rate changes. Increased APRs will increase your interest charges
and may increase your Minimum Payment.
Daily Balance
Method
(including
current
transactions)We calculate interest for each Credit Plan each day by applying the applicable daily
periodic rate to the daily balance. The daily periodic rate is the APR for the Credit
Plan divided by 365.
We start with the beginning balance each day (including unpaid interest and fees).
We add new transactions and fees to the applicable Credit Plan. We add transaction
fees to the same Credit Plan as the transaction. We add all other fees to the regular
purchase Credit Plan.
We subtract new credits and payments from the applicable Credit Plan and make
other adjustments to get the partial daily balance.
We multiply the partial daily balance by the daily periodic rate to get the daily
interest.
We add the daily interest to the partial daily balance to get the daily balance. This
results in daily compounding of interest.
We add all the daily interest to get the total interest for the Credit Plan for the
billing period. For a Deferred Interest Credit Plan, this interest is deferred.
We round interest to the nearest cent.
InterestCharging Interest: Interest begins on a transaction, fee or interest from the day
added to the daily balance until paid in full.
How to Avoid Paying Interest on Regular Purchases (Grace Period): If you did not
have a Previous Balance, or if you paid the New Balance on your previous statement
by the Due Date on that statement, we will not charge interest on new regular
purchases, or any portion thereof, paid by the Due Date on your current statement.
If you have promotional Credit Plans and/or balance transfers, we may exclude some
of those balances from the amount you have to pay in a billing period to keep your
Grace Period. However, you must pay (i) any required minimum payment on such
balances, (ii) the full amount of any Cash Advances and (iii) the full amount of any
promotional Credit Plan that expires in that billing period.
You Could Lose Your Grace Period: If you do not pay your New Balance in full
each billing period, then, depending on how we apply your payment, you may not get
a Grace Period on new regular purchases. Once you lose your Grace Period, you
can get it back by paying the New Balance (less any promotional Credit Plans and/or
balance transfers as described above plus any interest charged up to the date the
payment posts) in full for two billing periods in a row.
Waived Interest Credit Plan: We do not impose interest on plan balances during the
promotional period. After the promotional period, any remaining balance is added to
the regular purchase balance and is subject to interest at the then-current rate for
regular purchases.
Deferred Interest Credit Plan: Interest accrues on plan balances from the
transaction date. We do not impose that interest if you pay the balance in full by the
end of the promotional period. After the promotional period, any remaining balance
and interest from the transaction date is added to the regular purchase balance and
is subject to interest at the then-current rate for regular purchases. 7/13/22, 9:16 AM Ballard Designs Credit Card - Legal Docs - Credit Card Agreement

� C.7: Class Action Waiver.
A. Jury Trial
WaiverTo the extent permitted by law, you and we waive any right to trial by jury in
the event of a lawsuit arising out of or related to this Agreement. This jury trial
waiver shall not affect the Arbitration Provision below (including the jury trial
waiver contained therein). You and we each represent that this waiver is given

https://d.comenity .net/ballarddesigns/pub/requestCca/requestCca.xhtml 11/22B. Notice and
CurePrior to bringing a lawsuit or initiating an arbitration that asserts a claim arising out
of or related to this Agreement (as further defined below, "Claim"), the party
asserting the Claim ("Claimant") shall give the other party ("Respondent") written
notice of the Claim ("Claim Notice") and a reasonable opportunity, not less than 30
days, to resolve the Claim through good faith efforts of both parties. Any Claim
Notice to you shall be sent to the address we have in our records (or any updated
address you subsequently provide to us). Any Claim Notice to us shall be sent by
mail to the address for Arbitration Claims on the Summary (or any updated address
we subsequently provide). Any Claim Notice you send must provide your name,
address and Account number and explain the nature of the Claim and relief
demanded. You may only submit a Claim Notice on your own behalf and not on
behalf of any other party. No third party, other than a lawyer you have personally

Notice is sent by mail and the later of:
a. 60 days after receipt of the Claim Notice, or
b. 30 days after either Claimant or Respondent informs the other that good faith

A lawsuit or arbitration proceeding may not be commenced unless the Claimant has
complied with this Notice and Cure provision. A court will have authority to enforce
this Notice and Cure provision, including the power to enjoin the filing or prosecution
of arbitrations without first complying with said provision. Unless prohibited by
applicable law, the arbitration Administrator is without authority to accept or
administer any arbitration proceeding unless the Claimant has complied with this
Notice and Cure provision.
C. Arbitration
ProvisionReview this provision carefully. If you do not reject it in accordance with
Paragraph C.1, Right to Reject, below, it will be part of this Agreement and will
have a substantial impact on the way you or we will resolve any Claim you or
we have against each other now or in the future.
1. Right to
RejectIf you don�t want this Arbitration Provision (and any prior arbitration agreement
between you and us ("Prior Arbitration Agreement")) to apply, you may reject it
by mailing us a written rejection notice which gives your name, address,
Account number and contains a statement that you (both of you, if more than
one) reject the Arbitration Provision of this Agreement. The rejection notice
must be sent to us at the address for Arbitration Rejection on the Summary. A
rejection notice is only effective if it is personally signed by you and if we
receive it within 30 calendar days after the date we first provide you with a
credit card agreement or written notice providing you a right to reject this
Arbitration Provision. Your rejection of this Arbitration Provision will not affect
any other provision of this Agreement or your ability to obtain credit.
2. Parties Solely as used in this Arbitration Provision (and not elsewhere in this Agreement),
the terms �we,� �us� and �our� mean
a. the issuer of your Card named on the Summary and its successors and/or assigns,
as well as any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of theirs and their employees, officers 7/13/22, 9:16 AM Ballard Designs Credit Card - Legal Docs - Credit Card Agreement
https://d.comenity .net/ballarddesigns/pub/requestCca/requestCca.xhtml 12/22and directors (the �Bank Parties�); and
b. any other person or company that provides any services in connection with this
Agreement if you assert a Claim against such other person or company at the same
time you assert a Claim against any Bank Party.
3. Covered
Claims"Claim" means any claim, dispute or controversy between you and us that in any way
arises from or relates to this Agreement, the Account, the issuance of any Card, any
rewards program and/or any prior agreement or account. "Claim" includes disputes
arising from actions or omissions prior to the date any Card was issued to you,
including the advertising related to, application for or approval of the Account.
"Claim" has the broadest possible meaning, and includes initial claims, counterclaims,
cross-claims and third-party claims. It includes disputes based on contract, tort,
consumer rights, fraud and other intentional torts, constitution, statute, regulation,
ordinance, common law and equity (including any claim for individual injunctive or
declaratory relief). "Claim" does not include disputes about the validity,
enforceability, coverage or scope of this Arbitration Provision or any part thereof
(including, without limitation, the prohibition against class proceedings, private
attorney general proceedings and/or multiple party proceedings described in
Paragraph C.7, Prohibitions Against Certain Proceedings (Class Action Waiver),
Paragraph C.13, Severability, and/or this sentence); all such disputes are for a court
and not an arbitrator to decide. 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.
4. Starting an
ArbitrationArbitration may be elected by any party with respect to any Claim, even if that party
has already initiated a lawsuit with respect to a different Claim. Arbitration is started
by giving a written demand for arbitration to the other party. You and we will not
choose to arbitrate any individual Claim you or we bring in small claims court or
your or our state�s equivalent court. This means you or we may bring an action in
small claims court without being subject to arbitration. Moreover, if an arbitration
demand has been made within the jurisdictional limits of the applicable small claims
court, you or we may instruct the arbitration Administrator to close the case because
the dispute should be decided by a small claims court. However, if a Claim is
transferred, removed or appealed from small claims court to a different court, or if
any Claim brought in small claims court exceeds the small claims court limit or
attempts to change an individual Claim into a class or other representative Claim,
you or we will then have the right to demand arbitration.
5. Administrator"Administrator" means the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), 120 Broadway,
21st Floor, New York, NY 10271, www.adr.org, or National Arbitration and Mediation
(�NAM�), 122 East 42nd Street, Suite 803, New York, NY 10168, www.namadr.com, to
be selected by mutual agreement of the parties. If the parties are unable to select
an Administrator by mutual consent, the Administrator will be selected by a court
with jurisdiction pursuant to Section 5 of the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. �� 1-
16 ("FAA"). The arbitrator will be appointed by the Administrator in accordance with
the rules of the Administrator. However, the arbitrator must be a retired or former
judge or a lawyer with at least 10 years of experience. Notwithstanding any language
in this Arbitration Provision to the contrary, no arbitration may be administered by 7/13/22, 9:16 AM Ballard Designs Credit Card - Legal Docs - Credit Card Agreement
https://d.comenity .net/ballarddesigns/pub/requestCca/requestCca.xhtml 13/22any Administrator that has in place a formal or informal policy that is inconsistent
with the Class Action Waiver, without the consent of all parties to the arbitration.
6. Court and
Jury Trials
Prohibited; Other
Limitations on
Legal RightsIf you or we elect to arbitrate a Claim, you will not have the right to pursue
that Claim in court or have a jury decide the Claim. Also, your ability to obtain
information from us is more limited in arbitration than in a lawsuit. Other rights
that you would have if you went to court may also not be available in
arbitration.
7. Prohibition
Against Certain
Proceedings
(Class Action
Waiver)If you or we elect to arbitrate a Claim:
a. neither you nor we may participate in a class action in court or in class-wide
arbitration, either as a plaintiff, defendant or class member;
b. neither you nor we may act as a private attorney general in court or in
arbitration;
c. absent the written consent of all parties, Claims brought by or against you
may not be joined or consolidated with Claims brought by or against any other
person; and
d. the arbitrator shall have no power or authority to conduct a class-wide
arbitration, private attorney general arbitration or other representative
arbitration.
8. Location and
CostsAny arbitration hearing that you attend must take place at a location reasonably
convenient to you. The parties shall pay filing, administrative and arbitrator fees in
accordance with the Administrator�s rules and applicable law. However, if we receive
a written request personally signed by you, stating that you cannot afford to pay
your portion of said fees, we will pay them for you. The parties shall also bear the
fees and expenses of their own attorneys, experts and witnesses unless otherwise
required by applicable law, this Agreement or the Administrator�s rules. Provided
such an award is permitted by applicable law, the arbitrator may also allocate
compensation, expenses, and administrative fees (which include filing and hearing
fees) to any party upon the arbitrator�s determination that the party�s claim or
counterclaim was filed for purposes of harassment or is patently frivolous.
9. Governing LawThis Arbitration Provision involves interstate commerce and is governed by the FAA,
and not by any state arbitration law. The arbitrator must apply applicable substantive
law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations and claims of
privilege recognized at law. The arbitrator may award any remedy provided by the
substantive law that would apply in an individual case if the action were pending in
court (including, without limitation, punitive damages, which shall be governed by the
Constitutional standards employed by the courts). At the timely request of either
party, the arbitrator must provide a brief written explanation of the basis for the
award.
10. DiscoveryIn addition to the parties� rights to obtain discovery pursuant to the arbitration rules
of the Administrator, either party may submit a written request to the arbitrator to
expand the scope of discovery normally allowable under the arbitration rules of the
Administrator. The arbitrator shall have discretion to grant or deny that request.
11. Result and
AppealsJudgment upon the arbitrator�s award may be entered by any court having
jurisdiction. The arbitrator�s decision is final and binding, except for any right of
appeal provided by the FAA and/or the rules of the Administrator. Any finding, award 7/13/22, 9:16 AM Ballard Designs Credit Card - Legal Docs - Credit Card Agreement
https://d.comenity .net/ballarddesigns/pub/requestCca/requestCca.xhtml 14/22or judgment from an arbitration of any Claim shall apply only to that arbitration. No
finding, award or judgment from any other arbitration shall impact the arbitration of
any Claim.
12. InterpretationThis Arbitration Provision shall survive the repayment of all amounts owed under this
Agreement, the closing of the Account, any legal proceeding and any bankruptcy to
the extent consistent with applicable bankruptcy law. In the event of a conflict or
inconsistency between this Arbitration Provision and the applicable arbitration rules
or the other provisions of this Agreement, this Arbitration Provision shall govern.
This Arbitration Provision replaces any Prior Arbitration Agreement.
13. SeverabilityIf any portion of this Arbitration Provision is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the
remaining portions shall nevertheless remain in force, subject to two exceptions.
First, if a determination is made that the Class Action Waiver is unenforceable, and
that determination is not reversed on appeal, then the Arbitration Provision shall be
void in its entirety. Second, if a court determines that a public injunctive relief Claim
may proceed notwithstanding the Class Action Waiver, and that determination is not
reversed on appeal, then the public injunctive relief Claim will be decided by a court,
any individual Claims will be arbitrated, and the parties will ask the court to stay the
public injunctive relief Claim until the other Claims have been finally concluded.

What Will Happen After We Receive Your Letter 7/13/22, 9:16 AM Ballard Designs Credit Card - Legal Docs - Credit Card Agreement
https://d.comenity .net/ballarddesigns/pub/requestCca/requestCca.xhtml 15/22When 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.
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 7/13/22, 9:16 AM Ballard Designs Credit Card - Legal Docs - Credit Card Agreement
https://d.comenity .net/ballarddesigns/pub/requestCca/requestCca.xhtml 16/22if 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 the address for Billing Errors on the Summary.
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.
