Bank, or Vectra Bank Colorado name. 
1.1: THIS CREDIT CARD AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is a legal contract between you and ZB, N.A. that governs your

use your Card. The Margin applicable to your credit card Account may be changed by Bank and Bank will notify you of such 
change. 
1.4: AMENDING THIS AGREEMENT. We may amend, add or delete (i.e., “change”) any term of this Agreement at any 
time. We will notify you of any change, and any right to reject that change, as required by law. To reject a change, you must 
inform us in the manner and time period specified in our notice. We will then close your Account and you will be required to 
pay your Outstanding Balance as provided by applicable law. If a change requires your consent, we may obtain that consent 
from you verbally, in writing or electronically. Whether or not consent is required, any further use of your Account after the 
effective date of the change shall constitute your consent and acceptance. Unless a longer period is specified by law, a 
reasonable period for any notice to you shall not exceed 25 days from being sent. Notices may be printed on, or enclosed 
with, your monthly statement. 
1.5: CREDIT LIMIT. Your Account’s initial Credit Limit appears on the carrier containing your Card. Your updated Credit Limit

request additional Cards at no additional cost for family members or other persons that you authorize to use your Account, 
but you remain responsible for all of their charges.

3.0: USING YOUR CARD AND ACCOUNT. Subject to your Credit Limit and the other restrictions in this Agreement, card 
network rules and the law, your Card and Account can be used for the following:  
3.1: Purchases. The Card may be used to purchase or lease goods or services wherever the Card is accepted. 
3.2: Cash Advances. The Card may be used to obtain cash advances from your Account (1) in person at the Bank or any 
participating financial institution, (2) by electronic online cash advance to another account, or (3) ATMs in the Bank network or 
other participating ATM networks (listed on the back of your Card). Transaction fees apply to cash advances. Certain 
transaction limits apply, such as restricting the sum of all ATM and electronic online cash advances in your Account to $500 
(or $2000 limit for Signature accounts) or less on any calendar day. Some ATMs have other limits. Based on risk, we may 
further limit cash advances in our sole discretion. We have no obligation to you to enforce such transaction limits, and you 
owe all cash advances made. Using your Card to withdraw cash from an ATM located outside of the United States will create 
a cash advance from and charge to your credit card Account, even if you select withdrawal from a checking, savings, or other 
type of account. ”Quasi-cash transactions” such as using your Card for money orders, traveler’s checks, foreign currency, 
lottery tickets, or gambling chips are treated as cash advances, not purchases.  
3.3: Balance Transfers. You can request a balance transfer to your Account. You may not use a balance transfer to pay off 
other debts to us. You may only make a balance transfer to pay accounts in your name. Allow 3 to 4 weeks to process your 
balance transfer request. During that time, you should continue making payments to those accounts. Transaction Fees apply. 
You will not earn any rewards points or cash back rebates on a balance transfer.  
3.4: Credit Card Checks. We may provide Credit Card Checks to access your Account. Use of a Credit Card Check creates 
a cash advance. Transaction Fees apply. Unused Credit Card Checks are the Bank’s property and must be returned upon 
request. We can revoke your privilege to use Credit Card Checks at any time, without cause or notice. You cannot stop 
payment on a Credit Card Check.  

4.0: MONTHLY STATEMENTS. We will send you a monthly statement summarizing each transaction on your Account during 
the preceding billing period. Your monthly statement will show the total amount you owed at the end of the billing period, your 
minimum payment due, your payment due date (which is at least 25 days from the monthly statement closing date), and other 
important information. We send your monthly statement to only one address, even if the Account has multiple owners. See 
the “BILLING RIGHTS SUMMARY” section near the end of this Agreement for important information (including the need to 
promptly review your monthly statement and report any errors). 

5.0: HOW THE NEW BALANCE IS DETERMINED. The total amount you owe us at the end of the current billing period 
appears as the “New Balance” on your monthly statement. The Outstanding Balance at the end of the previous billing period 
is called the “Previous Balance”. The New Balance is determined by taking the Previous Balance and (1) subtracting any 
payments and credits received by us during the current billing period and then (2) adding any purchases, cash advances, 
balance transfers, interest charges, fees, and other adjustments. 

6.0: PAYMENTS. You must pay all amounts due on your Account according to the terms of this Agreement. Payments must 
be drawn on U.S. dollars deposited in the United States. If we accept any other payment, you must pay all conversion fees, 
bank collection fees and other expenses we may incur. (Such fees and expenses are treated as purchases.) Do not send 
cash payments. 
6.1: Payment Due Date. Your payment due date is the same date each month. If the minimum payment is not received by 
5:00 p.m. on the due date, in the manner and at the location specified in the billing statement, there may be a delay in posting 
your payment to your Account. Such delay may result in a late payment fee and additional interest charges. 
6.2: Minimum Payment Amount. If the New Balance is less than $30, the minimum payment is the full amount of the New 
Balance. If the New Balance is $30 or more, the minimum payment is the sum of (1) any past due amount and (2) the greater 
of: (a) $30 plus any late payment fees, or (b) 2.5% of the New Balance plus interest charges and any late payment fees. (For 
Visa Signature Cards, in addition to the foregoing amounts, your minimum payment amount will include the full amount by 
which your New Balance exceeds your credit limit.) For all cards, making only the minimum payment will increase the 
amount of interest you pay and the time it takes to repay your balance. 
6.3: Application of Payments. Payments credited to your Account during a billing period will be applied first to unpaid 
interest charges, then to any fees, then to the balance having the highest Annual Percentage Rate (APR), and then to each 
successive balance bearing the next higher APR until the payment is exhausted. Balances having the same APR will be paid 
beginning with the oldest balance first. You must pay at least the minimum payment amount on your statement each month, 
even if you paid more than the minimum payment in an earlier month. 
6.4: Partial or Nonconforming Payments. You must not mark any payment with any kind of restrictive endorsement (such 
as “paid in full” or “in settlement”). We can receive and credit your Account with the amount of any late payments, partial 
payments or payments with restrictive endorsements without losing or waiving our right to receive timely payment in full.  
6.5: Delay of Available Credit. We apply your payment to your Account on the business day we receive it. Based on risk, 
however, we may delay when that payment increases your Account’s available credit.  
6.6: Prepayment. You may repay all or any portion of the Outstanding Balance at any time without penalty.

7.0: RATES AND FEES: Annual Percentage Rates, Daily Periodic Rates and Fees and other disclosures are found on the 
Table at the end of this agreement associated with your Card. The card carrier containing your Card also includes disclosures 
specific to your Card Account. The terms of these disclosures are incorporated by reference into this Agreement. Review 
these disclosures carefully and keep in your records. 

8.0: DEFAULT. Your Account will be in default in any of the following circumstances: (a) your minimum payment is not 
received at the proper address on or before the payment due date; (b) you fail to honor any other obligation under this 
Agreement; (c) you die, file for bankruptcy, or become insolvent or generally unable to pay your debts; (d) you have furnished 
false or misleading information on the Card Application; (e) you are in default under any other obligations you may owe to us; 
or (f) we reasonably believe that you are unable or unwilling to honor all of your obligations under this Agreement. If your 
Account is in default, we may declare the Outstanding Balance immediately due and payable, close your Account, and 
recover all Cards and unused Credit Card Checks. 

9.0: ATTORNEYS’ FEES; COLLECTION EXPENSES; VENUE IN UTAH. You agree to pay our reasonable collection 
expenses, whether or not any court or arbitration proceedings are filed. Collection expenses include reasonable attorneys’ 
fees, the cost of Bank staff (including in house counsel), and out of pocket expenses (whether or not such expenses are 
awardable as “court costs”). Unless prohibited by law, you agree that we may bring legal action against you in the State of 
Utah, regardless of where you reside. 

10.0: INTEREST CHARGES. The following interest charges will apply whether before or after default, judgment, or the 
closing of your Account. 
10.1: Periodic Interest Charges on Purchases, Balance Transfers and Cash Advances. We will not charge periodic 
interest on purchases and balance transfers if you pay in full the total New Balance listed on the previous monthly statement 
by the payment due date. Otherwise, we will charge periodic interest on each purchase and balance transfer from the date of 
that purchase and balance transfer transaction. For every cash advance we charge interest from the date of that transaction. 
There is no grace period during which a cash advance can be repaid without incurring an interest charge. 
10.2: Periodic Interest Charge Calculation(s). The interest charged on purchase transactions and balance transfers is 
calculated separately from the interest charged on cash advances. Those separately calculated interest amounts are then 
combined to determine the total interest charged for the billing period. For each category of transactions, interest is calculated 
as follows. (1) First, we determine the “average daily balance” by taking each day’s beginning balance, adding any new 
transactions, and subtracting any payments or credits. We do not add interest incurred during the billing period. The result is 
the “daily balance.” We then add all the daily balances for the billing period and divide by the number of days in the billing 
period. The result is the “average daily balance” (also called the “balance subject to interest charge” on your monthly 
statement). (2) Second, we multiply the average daily balance by the number of days in the billing period. That number is then 
multiplied by the daily periodic rate (DPR) for that category of transactions. The resulting number is the interest charged for 
that category of transactions. If you are charged interest, the minimum interest charge will be no less than $1. 

11.0: ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE (“APR”) AND DAILY PERIODIC RATE (“DPR”). The APR and DPR for all 
transactions are variable rates. The APR for a particular billing period is the sum of the Bank’s “Prime Rate” for that billing 
period plus a “Margin.” The applicable Margin depends on the type of transaction and the type of credit card Account. Daily 
periodic interest is calculated using the DPR. The DPR is 1/365th of the APR (or 1/366 in a leap year). The APR and DPR on 
the Effective Date are disclosed on the card carrier. The actual APR in effect for each billing period, and for each category of 
transactions, is disclosed in your monthly statement. 
11.1: “Prime Rate” and the “Index”. The Prime Rate is equal to, and varies with, an independent index (the “Index”). The 
Index is the U.S. prime rate, as published by the Wall Street Journal. For any particular billing period, the Bank’s Prime Rate 
is the published Index rate for the day that precedes by 6 business days the first calendar day of the calendar month in which 
that billing period ends (If a range of rates is published for that date, the highest of the rates is used). If the Index becomes 
unavailable, the Bank may designate a substitute Index in its sole discretion. Your APR and DPR, and the amount of your 
minimum payment, will increase or decrease as the Index and Bank’s Prime Rate increase or decrease. The resulting 
changes in your APR and DPR will take effect on the first day of your billing cycle the following month. You acknowledge that 
the Bank’s Prime Rate does not mean the lowest rate at which Bank makes loans to any of its customers, now or in the 
future.  

12.0: ACCOUNT AND OTHER FEES. Fees applicable as of the effective date of this Agreement are provided on the carrier 
containing your card. 
12.1: Cash Advance Fee. Each new cash advance will be assessed a one-time fee. This fee is fully earned when assessed, 
and added to the balance of the transaction. 
12.2: Balance Transfer Fee. Each new balance transfer will be assessed a one-time fee. This fee is added to the balance of 
the transaction. 
12.3: Late Payment Fee. If your minimum payment is not received at the proper address by the payment due date, we 
charge a late payment fee.

12.4: Returned Payment Fee. If any check or other payment on your Account is dishonored or must be returned because it 
cannot be processed, we charge a returned payment Fee. This fee is charged to your Account as a purchase item. 
12.5: Annual Account Fee. If your Account has an Annual Account Fee, generally it will be billed at account opening and 
every twelve (12) months thereafter. The amount of the Annual Account Fee, if there is one on your Account, is listed in the 
Table that appears on the carrier containing your Card.  
12.6: International Transaction Fee. Each international transaction will be assessed a fee of the U.S. dollar amount of the 
transaction. This fee applies whether your transaction is originally made in U.S. dollars or converted to U.S. dollars from a 
foreign currency. If you incur a charge in a foreign currency, the charge will be converted into U.S. dollars amount by Visa 
International or MasterCard International Incorporated (as applicable) using its procedures in effect at the time. Under current 
procedures, the foreign currency conversion rate is either a wholesale market rate or a government mandated rate in effect 
one day prior to the date the transaction is processed by Visa or MasterCard. The currency conversion rate in effect on the 
processing date may differ from the rate in effect on the transaction date or the posting date. This fee is added to the balance 
of the transaction.  
12.7: Research Fee. If you request research on your Account (except for alleged billing errors by us), we may charge you a 
research fee up to $25 per hour, plus $5 per photocopy. This fee is charged to your Account as a purchase item. 
12.8: Expedited Card Delivery Fee, and Emergency Card Fee. We may charge a fee if you request “expedited delivery” of 
a Card that requires an outside delivery service provider. We may also charge a fee if you request to personally obtain an 
“emergency Card” at our Bankcard Center that requires special card production. The current amounts of these fees will be 
disclosed at the time of your requests and before you agree to incur the charges. These fees are charged to your Account as 
a purchase. 

13.0: ADDITIONAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO VISA SIGNATURE CARD: 
13.1: Credit Limit: The Credit Limit on your Card Account is disclosed on each monthly statement (your initial Credit Limit 
appears on the carrier containing the Card). Bank may decline authorization for any use of your Card or Card Account that 
would at any time cause your Outstanding Balance to exceed your Credit Limit. You are liable for the Outstanding Balance 
even if it exceeds your Credit Limit. The Bank may increase or decrease your Credit Limit at any time and will notify you of 
such change. In addition, you may request a change in your Credit Limit by writing to the address shown on your monthly 
statement or by calling 1-800-494-1698. 
13.2: Transfers. Not available on all Visa Signature cards, for cards with transfer capability the Card may be used at the 
ATMs described above to make electronic transfers to or from your checking account, savings account or other consumer 
asset account you may have at the Bank (subject to the Bank's rules, regulations and agreements governing such accounts, 
which you should have already received and which are incorporated herein). You may request copies of these materials by 
calling 1-888-758-5349. Transfers from your Card Account to your checking account, savings account or other consumer 
asset account will be treated as a cash advance subject to a Cash Advance Transaction Fee. 

14.0: SECURITY INTEREST FOR SECURED ACCOUNTS. If you have a Secured Account, you have given the Bank a 
security interest in a savings account at the Bank to secure payment of your Account. If you withdraw your funds from the 
savings account, the Bank has the right to close your Account. 

15.0: JOINT ACCOUNT. If your Account is in the name of more than one person, each such person is jointly and individually 
liable for the full balance of all amounts due on your Account. Unless otherwise required by law, we may send all monthly 
statements and other notices to any one of you. Such monthly statements and notices shall be deemed received by each and 
all of you. 

16.0: INTERPRETATION; EFFECT. 
16.1: Duration; Survival. Your right to use the Card or make charges to your Account terminates when your Account is 
closed. All of our rights and your obligations remain in effect until your Account is closed and your Outstanding Balance is 
paid in full. 
16.2: Headings. The headings used in this Agreement are for convenience only and do not describe the entire scope or 
intention of any portion of this Agreement. 
16.3: Integrated Agreement. This Agreement is the final written statement of your contract with us and cannot be 
contradicted with evidence of any alleged oral agreement. 
16.4: Severability. If any part of this Agreement is unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the rest of this Agreement will remain 
enforceable in that jurisdiction, and this entire Agreement shall remain enforceable in all other jurisdictions.  
16.5: Delay in Enforcement. Any delay by us in enforcing our rights or your obligations under this Agreement shall not be 
deemed to release, waive, impair or discharge those rights or obligations.  
16.6.: Assignment. You may not assign or transfer any portion of this Agreement or your Account without our prior written 
permission. We may assign or transfer this Agreement, your Account or any portion thereof without notice to you. This 
Agreement shall be binding upon the parties’ heirs, representatives, successors, and assigns.

17.0: DISCLOSURES OF INFORMATION. You consent to the release of personal data about you by the Bank to Visa

Display of a Visa logo, MasterCard logo, or other payment system logo by any person (e.g., an online merchant), or 
acceptance of a transaction, does not mean that the transaction is lawful in all or any jurisdictions governing you, your 
Account or the transaction. We have the right (but no obligation to you) to decline or block any transactions that we believe 
may be prohibited under this section. We may also block use of your Card in countries or territories subject to OFAC

address, or mailing address. Until you notify us of updated information, we can send statements, notices and other 
communications to the name and address in our records, and they will be deemed effectively delivered for all purposes. If

mailing your statements, notices, and other communications until a valid address is received from you. 

24.0: CLOSING YOUR ACCOUNT: You may close your Account at any time by notifying us in writing. We may close your

everyone authorized to charge transactions to your Account (e.g., internet service providers, insurance companies, etc.) to 
cancel future transactions. Such transactions may continue to be charged to your Account until you change the billing, and 
you will be liable for those charges. If we believe that you have authorized a transaction or are attempting to use your Account 
after you have requested to close your Account, we may (but are not required) allow the transaction to be charged to your 
Account and you will be liable for the charges. 

25.0: DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISION.  
This Dispute Resolution Provision contains a jury waiver, a class action waiver, and an arbitration agreement (or 
judicial reference agreement, as applicable), set out in four Sections. READ IT CAREFULLY. No portion of this Dispute 
Resolution section shall be interpreted or applied in a manner prohibited by governing law, but all other portions shall remain 
in effect. Without limitation, no portion of this Dispute Resolution section shall require arbitration or other non-judicial 
procedure to resolve any controversy or settle any claim arising out of any consumer credit transaction that is secured by a 
dwelling (including a home equity line of credit secured by the consumer’s principal dwelling). 

SECTION 1: GENERAL PROVISIONS GOVERNING ALL DISPUTES. 
25.1.1: PRIOR DISPUTE RESOLUTION AGREEMENTS SUPERSEDED. This Dispute Resolution Provision shall 
supersede and replace any prior “Jury Waiver,” “Class Action Waiver,” “Arbitration,” “Judicial Reference,” “Dispute 
Resolution,” or similar alternative dispute agreement or provision between or among the parties. 

25.1.2: “DISPUTE” DEFINED. As used herein, the word “Dispute” includes, without limitation, any claim by either party 
against the other party related to this Agreement, your Account, any transaction in your Account, any Card or a Credit Card 
Check. “Dispute” includes, but is not limited to, matters arising from or relating to a deposit account, an application for or 
denial of credit, warranties and representations made by a party, the adequacy of a party’s disclosures, enforcement of any 
and all of the obligations a party hereto may have to another party, compliance with applicable laws and/or regulations, 
performance or services provided under any agreement by a party, including without limitation disputes based on or arising 
from any alleged tort or matters involving the employees, officers, agents, affiliates, or assigns of a party hereto.  

If a third party is a party to a Dispute (such as a credit reporting agency, merchant accepting a credit card, junior lienholder or 
title company), each party hereto agrees to consent to including that third party in any arbitration or judicial reference 
proceeding for resolving the Dispute with that third party. 

25.1.3: JURY WAIVER. Each party waives its, his or her respective rights to a trial before a jury in connection with 
any Dispute. All Disputes shall be decided by a judge sitting without a jury, unless submitted to binding arbitration pursuant 
to Section 2 or judicial reference pursuant to Section 3. 

25.1.4. AGREEMENT FOR BINDING ARBITRATION OR JUDICIAL REFERENCE (A) IF A CONSUMER PARTY 
REQUESTS, OR (B) IF THE JURY TRIAL WAIVER IS NOT ENFORCED. A party who (in context of the Dispute) is a 
consumer may timely elect to require that the Dispute be submitted as applicable to binding arbitration under Section 2 hereof 
or binding judicial reference under Section 3 hereof. In addition, if this Agreement’s jury waiver is unenforceable by law, or 
otherwise not enforced by a court exercising jurisdiction over the Dispute, then all parties hereby agree that the Dispute shall 
be timely submitted as applicable to binding arbitration under Section 2 or binding judicial reference under Section 3. BY 
AGREEING TO RESOLVE SPECIFIED FUTURE DISPUTES IN ARBITRATION OR BY JUDICIAL REFERENCE, THE 
PARTIES ARE WAIVING THEIR RIGHT TO LITIGATE THOSE DISPUTES IN COURT. 

In any lawsuit regarding a Dispute (a “Lawsuit”), following the service of a complaint, third-party complaint, cross-claim or 
counterclaim or any answer thereto, any amendment to any of the above, or a ruling or entry of an order that has the effect of 
invalidating this Agreement’s jury trial waiver (any of the foregoing, an “ADR Event”), then at any time prior to trial of the 
Dispute, but not later than 30 days after the ADR Event, any party shall be entitled to move the court for an order (on the 
grounds set forth in the preceding paragraph) compelling arbitration under Section 2 or judicial reference under Section 3, as 
applicable, and staying or dismissing the Lawsuit pending such arbitration or judicial reference (an “ADR Order”). A party that 
commenced or participated in the Lawsuit may nevertheless demand arbitration or judicial reference of a Dispute after an 
ADR Event. Commencement or participation in the Lawsuit shall not operate as a waiver of the right to compel arbitration or 
judicial reference. After entry of an ADR Order, the non-moving party shall commence the arbitration or judicial reference. The 
moving party shall, at its discretion, also be entitled to commence arbitration or judicial reference but is under no obligation to 
do so, and the moving party shall not in any way be adversely prejudiced by electing not to commence arbitration or judicial 
reference. 

25.1.5: CLASS ACTION WAIVER. If permitted by applicable law, each party waives the right to litigate any Dispute as a 
class action (either as a member of a class or as a representative) or to act as a private attorney general. The waiver 
in this paragraph applies whether the proceeding is in a court, in an arbitration, or in a judicial reference proceeding.

25.1.6: SURVIVAL: This Dispute Resolution Provision shall survive any termination, amendment, or expiration of this 
Agreement, or any other relationship between the parties.  

SECTION 2: TERMS GOVERNING THOSE DISPUTES SUBMITTED TO ARBITRATION. This Section 2 governs Disputes 
that are submitted for binding arbitration under subsection 25.1.4.  This Section 2 shall not apply to any Dispute that is 
pending in a state or federal court located in the State of California, except to the extent such Dispute may also be pending in 
a state or federal court located outside of California.  An arbitrator shall have no authority to determine the validity, 
enforceability, meaning and scope of this Dispute Resolution Provision, or (ii) class action claims brought by either party as a 
class representative on behalf of others, or by a class representative on either party’s behalf as a class member, which 
matters may be determined only by a court without a jury. 

Arbitration under this provision shall be conducted before a single arbitrator through either the National Arbitration Forum 
(“NAF”) or Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Service, Inc. (JAMS), as selected by the initiating party, in accordance with the 
rules of NAF or JAMS (the “Administrator”). However, if the parties agree, a licensed attorney may be selected by the parties 
to conduct the arbitration without an Administrator. If NAF and JAMS both decline to administer arbitration of the Dispute, and 
if the parties are unable to mutually agree upon a licensed attorney to act as arbitrator without an Administrator, then either 
party may file a Lawsuit and move for an ADR Order. The arbitrator, howsoever appointed, shall have expertise in the subject 
matter of the Dispute. Venue for the arbitration proceeding shall be as stated elsewhere in this Agreement with respect to any 
judicial proceedings between the parties. Absent such a provision, the arbitration shall be conducted at a location determined 
by mutual agreement of the parties or by the Administrator if no agreement can be reached. The arbitrator shall apply the law 
of the state specified in the agreement giving rise to the Dispute. 

In any arbitration commenced by a consumer regarding a consumer Dispute, Lender or Bank shall pay one half of the 
Administrator's initial filing fee, up to $500. If Lender or Bank commences arbitration or is the moving party obtaining an ADR 
Order, Lender or Bank shall pay all Administrator and arbitrator fees, regardless of whether or not the consumer is the 
prevailing party in such arbitration, unless such Dispute involves a claim for damages by a consumer and is found by the 
arbitrator to be frivolous. For this paragraph, “consumer Dispute” shall mean a Dispute involving credit or services provided by 
Lender or Bank, primarily for personal, family or household purposes, in which the claim for damages is less than $75,000. 

The Administrator and the arbitrator shall have the authority, to the extent practicable, to take any reasonable action to 
require the arbitration proceeding to be completed within 180 days of commencing the arbitration. The arbitrator: (i) will render 
a decision and any award applying applicable law; (ii) will hear and rule on appropriate dispositive motions for judgment on 
the pleadings, for failure to state a claim, or for full or partial summary judgment; (iii) will give effect to any statutory or 
contractual limitations period (e.g., any statute of limitations) in determining any Dispute or defense; (iv) shall have the 
authority to impose sanctions on any party that fails to comply with time periods imposed by the Administrator or the 
arbitrator, including, without limitation, the sanction of entering a final award against the party that fails to comply; (v) shall 
have authority to award costs and fees (including attorneys' fees and costs, arbitration administration fees and costs, and 
arbitrator(s)' fees) to the extent permitted by law; (vi) shall recognize and honor claims of privilege recognized at law; and (vii) 
with regard to motions and the arbitration hearing, shall apply the Federal Rules of Evidence. The doctrines of compulsory 
counterclaim, res judicata, and collateral estoppel shall apply to any arbitration proceeding hereunder. 

Commencement of an arbitration by any party shall not prevent any party from at any time (i) seeking and obtaining from a 
court of competent jurisdiction (notwithstanding ongoing arbitration) provisional or ancillary remedies including but not limited 
to injunctive relief, temporary restraining orders, property preservation orders, foreclosure, sequestration, eviction, 
attachment, replevin, garnishment, and/or the appointment of a receiver; or (ii) availing itself of any self-help remedies such 
as setoff and repossession rights or non-judicial foreclosure of collateral. The exercise of such rights shall not constitute a 
waiver of the right to submit any Dispute to arbitration. 

Judgment upon an arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction except that, if the arbitration award 
exceeds $200,000, any party shall be entitled to a de novo appeal of the award before a panel of three arbitrators. To allow 
for such appeal, if the award (including Administrator, arbitrator, and attorney’s fees and costs) exceeds $200,000, the 
arbitrator will issue a written, reasoned decision supporting the award, including a statement of authority and its application to 
the Dispute. A request for de novo appeal must be filed with the arbitrator within 30 days following the date of the arbitration 
award; if such a request is not made within that time period, the arbitration award shall become final and binding. On appeal, 
the arbitrators shall review the award de novo, meaning that they shall reach their own findings of fact and conclusions of law 
rather than deferring in any manner to the original arbitrator. Appeal of an arbitration award shall be pursuant to the rules of 
the Administrator; if the Administrator has no such rules, then the JAMS arbitration appellate rules shall apply. 

To request information on how to submit an arbitration claim, or to request a copy of an Administrator’s rules or fee schedule, 
please contact the Administrators as follows: JAMS: 1920 Main St., Suite 300, Irvine, CA 92614, Phone: (949) 224-1810,

Arbitration under this provision concerns a transaction involving interstate commerce and shall be governed by the Federal 
Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. If the terms of this Section 2 vary from the Administrator’s rules, this Section 2 shall 
control.  

SECTION 3: TERMS GOVERNING THOSE DISPUTES SUBMITTED TO JUDICIAL REFERENCE.  This Section 3 governs 
Disputes that are submitted under subsection 25.1.4 for judicial reference in accordance with California Code of Civil 
Procedure, Section 638, et seq. This Section 3 may be invoked only with regard to Disputes filed in state or federal courts 
located in the State of California.  In no event shall this Section 3 diminish the force or effect of any venue selection or 
jurisdiction provision in this Agreement or any Related Document. Nothing herein shall preclude a party from moving (prior to 
the court ordering judicial reference) to dismiss, stay or transfer the suit to a forum outside California on grounds that 
California is an improper, inconvenient or less suitable venue. If such motion is granted, this Section 3 shall not apply to any 
proceedings in the new forum. 

The referee shall be a retired judge, agreed upon by the parties, from either the American Arbitration Association (AAA) or 
Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Service, Inc. (JAMS). If the parties cannot agree on the referee, the party who initially 
selected the reference procedure shall request a panel of ten retired judges from either AAA or JAMS, and the court shall 
select the referee from that panel. If AAA and JAMS are unavailable to provide this service, the court may select a referee by 
such other procedures as are used by that court. The referee shall be appointed to sit with all of the powers provided by law, 
including the power to hear and determine any or all of the issues in the proceeding, whether of fact or of law, and to report a 
statement of decision. Only for this Section 3, “Dispute” includes matters regarding the validity, enforceability, meaning, or 
scope of this Section, and class action claims brought by either party as a class representative on behalf of others and claims 
by a class representative on either party’s behalf as a class member. The parties agree that time is of the essence in 
conducting the judicial reference proceeding set forth herein. Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, the costs of the 
judicial reference proceeding, including the fee for the court reporter, shall be borne equally by the parties as the costs are 
incurred, unless otherwise awarded by the referee. If Lender or Bank commences a judicial reference proceeding regarding a 
consumer Dispute, Lender or Bank shall pay all referee fees, regardless of whether or not the consumer is the prevailing 
party in such proceeding, unless such Dispute involves a claim for damages by a consumer and is found by the referee to be 
frivolous. For purposes of this paragraph, “consumer Dispute” shall mean a Dispute involving credit or services provided by 
Lender or Bank, primarily for personal, family or household purposes, in which the claim for damages is less than $75,000. 
The referee shall hear all pre-trial and post-trial matters (including without limitation requests for equitable relief), prepare a 
statement of decision with written findings of fact and conclusions of law and apportion costs as appropriate. The referee shall 
be empowered to enter equitable relief as well as legal relief, provide all temporary or provisional remedies, enter equitable 
orders that are binding on the parties and rule on any motion that would be authorized in a trial, including without limitation 
motions for summary adjudication. Judgment upon the award shall be entered in the court in which such proceeding was 
commenced and all parties shall have full rights of appeal. This provision will not be deemed to limit or constrain Lender’s or 
Bank’s right of offset, to obtain provisional or ancillary remedies, to interplead funds in the event of a dispute, to exercise any 
security interest or lien Bank or Lender may hold in property, or to comply with legal process involving accounts or other 
property held by Bank or Lender. 

SECTION 4: RELIANCE. Each party (i) certifies that no one has represented to such party that the other party would not 
seek to enforce a jury waiver, class action waiver, arbitration provision or judicial reference provision in the event of suit, and 
(ii) acknowledges that it and the other party have been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, material 
reliance upon the mutual waivers, agreements, and certifications in the four Sections of this DISPUTE RESOLUTION 
PROVISION. 

26.0: BILLING RIGHTS SUMMARY. This notice contains important information about your rights and the Bank's 
responsibilities under the Fair Credit Billing Act.

information about a transaction on your bill, write to us in a separate letter at the address indicated in the Billing Rights 
Summary on your Statement or the address below. We must hear from you no later than 60 days after we sent you the first 
bill on which the error or problem appeared. You can telephone us, but doing so will not preserve your rights and we will not 
be required to investigate any potential errors. In your letter, include the following information: 

  Your name and account number. 
  The date and dollar amount of the suspected error. 
  Describe the error, and explain if you can, why you believe there is an error. If you need more information,

If you have authorized us to pay your Account automatically from your savings or checking account or you have authorized an 
automatic payment on your Account, you can stop the payment on any amount you think is wrong. To stop the payment your 
letter must reach us three business days before the automatic payment is scheduled to occur. 
26.2: Your Rights and Our Responsibilities After We Receive Your Written Notice. We must acknowledge your letter 
within 30 days, unless we corrected the error by then. Within 90 days, we must either correct the error or explain why we 
believe the bill was correct.  
After we receive your letter, we cannot try to collect any amount you question, or report you as delinquent. We can continue 
to bill you for the amount you question, including interest charges, and we can apply any unpaid amount against your Credit 
Limit. You do not have to pay any questioned amount while we are investigating, but you are still obligated to pay the parts of 
your bill that are not in question.  
If we find that we made a mistake on your bill, you will not have to pay the amount in question or any interest charges related 
to any questioned amount. If we didn’t make a mistake, you may have to pay interest charges, and you will have to make any 
missed payments on the questioned amount. In either case, we will send you a statement of the amount you owe and the 
date that it is due.  
If you fail to pay the amount that we think you owe, we may report you as delinquent. However, if our explanation does not 
satisfy you and you write to us within ten (10) days telling us that you still refuse to pay, we must tell anyone we report you to 
that you have a question about your bill. And, we must tell you the name of anyone we reported you to. We must tell anyone 
we report you to that the matter has been settled between us when it finally is. If we don’t follow these rules, we can’t collect 
the first $50 of the questioned amount, even if your bill was correct. 
26.3: 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 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 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 access 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: 

Bankcard Services 
P.O. Box 25787 
Salt Lake City, UT 84125-0787 

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.
