not to attempt to obtain more credit than the amount of your credit limit. However, if 
you temporarily exceed your credit limit , you agree to repay the excess immediately , 
even if we have not yet billed you. Obtaining such credit does not increase your credit 
limit. We retain the right to increase or decrease your credit limit at any time for any 
reason. Any increase or reduction on the limit of your credit limit will be s hown on your 
monthly statement or by separate notice together with any changes in the applicable 
minimum monthly payments. Your eligibility for this credit line is determined by our 
loan policy and may be terminated at our sole discretion, without demand o r notice.

Cards cut in half. If you terminate this Agreement or if we terminate or suspend your 
credit privileges, the provisions of the Agreement and your liability he reunder shall

Agreement and returned all Cards.  
3. ACCOUNT  ACCESS.  
You may use your Card and your Account to purchase goods or services, obtain 
balance transfers , and obt ain cash advances. No transaction may exceed the 
available funds in your Account. We may not honor your request for a transaction if: 
the request would exceed your credit limit; you are in default under this Agreement; 
your Account has been terminated or s uspended, or your Account has not been 
activated.  
Purchases. You may use your Account to purchase goods or services wherever the 
Card is honored, up to the full amount of your credit limit. However, you may not use 
your Card to initiate any type of electro nic gambling transaction through the Internet. 
Balance Transfers. You may use your Account to obtain balance transfers from us, up

obligations with other creditors. Bala nce transfers may not be used to pay  off any 
Banner Bank accounts. Cash Advances. You may use your Account to obtain cash 
advances from us, from participating financial institutions , and from automated teller 
machines (� ATM� ). These cash advances are subject to a cash advance credit limit, 
which is 50.00% of your credit line. The maximum cash advance you may obtain at 
any ATM is $500.00. We may offer you preprinted letter checks from time to time to 
obtain cash advances.  You may write letter checks up to the full amount of your credit

4. YOUR PROMISE TO  PAY.  
You promise to pay us for all purchases, cash advances , and balance transfers, plus 
any FINANCE CHARGE, fees and other charges which arise from use of the Card or  
Account by you or any other person, and to be jointly and severally liable with such a 
person, unless such other person does not have actual, implied, or apparent authority 
for such use, and you receive no benefit from the use. The total outstanding balan ce of 
your Account on the closing date of a billing cycle, including any FINANCE CHARGE 
will be shown on your monthly statement for that billing cycle as the � New Balance.� 
You promise to pay us either by direct payment or by automatic transfers from your  
bank deposit account.  
5. FINANCE  CHARGE . 
a. When a FINANCE CHARGE will  accrue : 
Purchases. A FINANCE CHARGE will be imposed on purchases from the date each 
purchase is posted to your Account to the date paid. If, however, the outstanding 
balance on your prior monthly statement was paid in full prior to the statement due 
date or was zero and you pay your entire New Balance in full within 25 days after the 
closing date, no FINANCE CHARGE will be imposed on your purchases. This � grace 
period for purchases� allows  you to avoid a FINANCE CHARGE on purchases for a 
billing cycle. Balance Transfers and Cash Advances. A FINANCE CHARGE will be 
imposed on balance transfers and cash advances from the date each cash advance or 
balance transfer is posted to your Account to t he date paid. There is no time period 
within which to pay to avoid a periodic FINANCE CHARGE on cash advances or 
balance  transfers.   
 
b. Periodic Rates used to compute FINANCE  CHARGE : 
........................... Corresponding Periodic Rate ....... ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE  
Card Purchases:............ 0.8325% per month.................................. 9.99%  
Balance Transfers:*....... 0.4367% per month.................................. 5.24%  
Cash Advances:............ 1.5000% per month......................... ........ 18.00%  
(* Beginning 60 days after your account setup , the Periodic Rate and 
Corresponding ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE for new Balance Transfers will be 
the same as the rate for Card Purchases).  
c. Method used to determine the balance on which the Finance Charge may be 
computed and amount of Finance  Charge : 
We calculate the FINANCE CHARGE on your purchases by applying the Periodic Rate 
for purchases to the � Average Daily Balance� of purchases for your Account (including 
current transactions). To ge t the � Average Daily Balance ,� we take the beginning 
purchase balance of your Account each day, add any new purchases , and subtract 
any payments or credits and unpaid FINANCE CHARGE. This gives us the daily 
balance for purchases. Then we add up all the da ily balances for the billing cycle and 
divide by the number of days in the billing cycle. This gives us the Average Daily 
Balance for purchases.  
We calculate  the FINANCE CHARGE on your balance transfers by applying the 
Periodic Rate for balance trans fers to the � Average Daily Balance� of balance transfers 
for your Account (including current transactions). To get the � Average Daily Balance ,� 
we take the beginning balance transfer balance of your Account each day, add any 
new balance transfers , and subtract any payments or credits and unpaid FINANCE 
CHARGE. This gives us the daily balance for balance transfers. Then we add up all 
the daily balances for the billing cycle and divide by the number of days in the billing 
cycle. This gives us the Ave rage Daily Balance for balance  transfers.  
We calculate  the FINANCE CHARGE on your cash advances by applying the 
Periodic Rate for cash advances to the � Average Daily Balance� of cash advances for 
your Account (including current transactions). To get  the �Average Daily Balance� we 
take the beginning cash advance balance of your Account each day, add any new 
cash advances , and subtract any payments or credits and unpaid FINANCE 
CHARGE. This gives us the daily balance for cash advances. Then we add up all the 
daily balances for the billing cycle and divide by the number of days in the billing 
cycle. This gives us the Average Daily Balance for cash advances. The FINANCE 
CHARGE imposed during the billing cycle will be determined by multiplying the 
applica ble Average Daily Balance by the applicable Periodic Rate.  
Employee Rate Reduction. If you are an employee of Banner Bancorp  or one of its 
affiliates, you will receive a 2.00% rate reduction from the Purchase rate disclosed in 
this agreement.  
6. ANNUAL  FEE. 
No Annual Fee for Regular Cards. $25.00 for Deposit Secured Cards.  
7. LATE  CHARGES . 
If your minimum required payment is not received within 5 days after the scheduled 
monthly due date, a late charge of $20.00 will be imposed.  
8. OTHER CHARGES THAT MAY BE  IMPOS ED. 
We may also impose the following fees and charges on your Account:  
a. Returned Item Charge. If any check or draft we receive from you as payment for any 
amount you owed to us is returned to us unpaid, we may impose a return item fee  of 
$15.00.  
b. Copies of Past Statements. If you request a copy of a monthly statement, we may 
charge your Account $2.00 per billing statement. These charges cover the cost of 
locating, copying, and delivering the documents to you. If a request is related to a 
billing error and an  error is found, we will reverse any photocopying  charges.  
c. ATM Fees. If you use an ATM to obtain a cash advance and the ATM is not 
operated by us, you may be charged an ATM surcharge by the ATM operator or an 
ATM network utilized for such a transaction. Th e ATM surcharge may be charged to 
your Account if you complete the  transaction.  
d. Attorney�s Fees and Costs. If you default on any part of this Agreement, you agree 
to pay us all costs to collect your Account, including court costs and reasonable 
attorney fees and collection agency costs whether or not there is a lawsuit, and fees 
on any appeal and fees for bankruptcy proceedings, appeals, and any post judgment 
collection services, if  applicable.  
9. DEPOSIT SECURED CREDIT  CARDS.  
If you have selected the Deposi t Secured Credit Card, your Credit Card is secured by 
the assignment of a Banner Bank Deposit Account with a balance at least equal to 
your Credit Card's limit ($300 to $5,000). Additional deposits can be made to the 
Deposit Account from time to time and y ou may request the Bank increase the credit 
limit for the Credit Card, provided that adjustments in Credit Card limit may only be 
made in increments of at least $100. A separate Security Agreement provides details 
of the assignment. Your withdrawals from t he Deposit Account will be restricted.  
Should you become in default of this Agreement, the Bank has a right to apply the 
funds in the Deposit Account to pay any outstanding balance on your Credit Card  
without any prior notice to you.   10. MONTHLY  STATEMENTS.  
Each month we will send you a statement showing purchases, balance transfers, cash 
advances, payments, and credits made to your Account during the billing cycle, as well 
as your New Balance, any FINANCE CHARGE , and any late charge or o ther charges. 
Your monthly statement also will identify the minimum monthly payments you must 
make for that billing period and the date it is due. You agree to retain for statement 
verification, copies of transaction slips resulting from each purchase, eac h advance, 
and other transaction s on your Account. Unless you notify us of a billing error as 
described below, you accept your monthly statement as an accurate statement of your 
Account.

a. The minimum payment required is the New Balance sho wn on your monthly 
statement if the amount is equal to or less than  $25.00.

upon the portion of the New Balance (2.00% of the Cash Advance balance, 2.00% of 
the Purchase balance, an d 5.00% of the Balance Transfer balance) which does not 
exceed your credit limit (rounded up to the nearest dollar), or $25.00, whichever is 
greater, plus the entire portion of the New Balance in excess of your credit limit, plus 
any amount  past due, plus any outstanding  late charges  and other  fees and charges.

this Agreement, which are hereby explicitly reserved.
