the  advance.  Interest  charges  begin  to  accrue  on  credit  checks  and  credit 
life insurance premiums on the day they are posted to the account. Interest 
charges begin to accrue on purchases as of the transaction date.
14.  (b)  If  an  interest  charge  is  imposed  on  Cardholder’s  account,  Bank 
will  compute  the  interest  charge  on  Cardholder’s  account  by  applying  the 
monthly “periodic rate” to the “average daily balance” of Cardholder’s account 
(including  current  transactions).  To  get  the  “average  daily  balance,”  Bank 
will  take  the  beginning  balance  of  the  account  each  day  and  add  any  new 
purchases (if subject to interest charges as explained above), cash advances 
(including credit checks) and credit life insurance premiums and subtract any 
payments or credits and unpaid interest charges. This gives Bank the daily 
balance. Then, Bank adds up all the daily balances for the billing cycle and 
divides the total by the number of days in the billing cycle. This gives Bank the
“average daily balance.”
15. The rate of exchange between the transaction currency and the billable 
currency used for the processing of International MASTERCARD transactions 
is  the  (I)  wholesale  market  rate  or  (II)  government-mandated  rate,  in  effect 
one day prior to the processing date, increased by 1 percent (or the applicable 
percentage as determined by the Issuer’s selected option s). The rate of ex 
change between the transaction currency and the billable currency used for 
the processing of VISA transactions is as follows. “A rate selected by VISA 
from  the  range  of  rates  available  in  wholesale  currency  markets  for  the 
applicable central processing date, which rate may vary from the rate VISA
itself receives, or the government-mandated rate in effect for the applicable 
central  processing  date,in  each  instance,  plus  or  minus  any  adjustment 
determined by the issuer.” For each purchase made in a foreign currency we 
will add an additional interest charge of 1% of the purchase amount after it is
converted into U.S. Dollars.
16. Bank can change any of the terms of this Agreement (including the periodic 
rates used to compute the interest charge) at any time. The new terms will 
apply both to new purchases and advances, and to the outstanding balance 
on your account. We will mail you written notice of any change at least 45 days 
before the start of the billing cycle when the change will take place.
