Things You Should Know About This Card
♦ What Will My APR Be If I Transfer A Balance?
Any balances that you successfully transfer on or before December 1, 2010, will receive your Special Transfer APR. All subsequent balances that you transfer will receive your Balance Transfer APR unless the transfer is made in connection with a Future Offer from us. Please remember that Future Offers, as discussed below, may include different terms.
‡ Can You Increase My APRs?
We will not increase your introductory APRs for any reason before the end of the introductory period. Your variable APRs can go up or down as the Prime rate goes up or down. If your payment is received late (3 or more days after your payment due date) twice within any 12 billing periods, we may increase your APRs to the Default APR disclosed above. If we increase your APRs for late payments, we may return you to your prior non-introductory APRs if you make at least the minimum payment on time for 12 consecutive billing periods. In the future, we may increase your APRs if market conditions change. If we increase your APRs for any reason other than an increase in the Prime rate or if you paid late as disclosed above, we will notify you in writing of your options in advance, including the right to opt out.
What About Any Other Terms Of My Account?
We may change any other terms of your account, other than APRs, at any time. If we change any of these terms, we will notify you in writing of your options in advance, including the right to opt out of certain changes.
Do You Engage In Universal Default?
We do not engage in a practice known as “universal default.” Universal default permits a credit card company to increase your APRs simply because you fail to make a payment on a loan with another lender or your credit history contains other negative information.
How Do You Calculate My Variable Rate?
* We calculate your variable rates by adding a percentage to the Prime rate published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal on the 25th day of December, March, June and September. If the Journal is not published on that day, then see the immediately preceding edition. If Prime changes, your new rate will take effect on the first day of your January, April, July and October billing period.
What About Future Offers?
At any time in the future, we may extend new offers in connection with this account, including opportunities to transfer additional balances. These new products and services may have different APRs, fees and other terms. We will provide any different terms when we make you the new offer, and you may accept or decline any such offer.
How Do You Determine My Credit Line?
We will determine your credit line after a review of your application. If your application is approved, you will receive a minimum credit line of $500.
What Happens If I Go Over My Credit Line?
Any amount that we may allow you to spend above your revolving credit line will be due in your next statement, but we will not charge you an overlimit fee.
How Do You Apply My Payment?
We will apply your payment to pay off lower-rate balances before paying off higher-rate balances.
How Do You Calculate My Minimum Payment?
If your balance is less than $15, your minimum payment will equal your balance. Otherwise, your minimum payment will be the greater of $15 or 1% of your balance plus interest (periodic finance charges) and late payment fees.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR ACCOUNT
FINANCE CHARGE.
- Transactions which are not subject to a grace period are assessed finance charges 1) from the date of the transaction or 2) from the date the transaction is processed to your account or 3) from the first calendar day of the current billing period. Additionally, if you did not pay the “New Balance” from the previous billing period in full, finance charges continue to accrue to your unpaid balance until the unpaid balance is paid in full. This means that you may still owe finance charges, even if you pay the entire New Balance indicated on the front of your statement by the payment due date, but did not do so for the previous month. Unpaid finance charges are added to the applicable segment of your Account. Cash advances (the cash advance segment) and special transfers (if your account includes a special transfer segment) may not avoid finance charges.
-
Cash Advance, Purchase/Other Charges and Special Transfer or Special Purchase Segments (If Your Account Includes a Special Transfer or Special Purchase Segment). Finance charge is calculated by multiplying the daily balance of each segment of your account (e.g., cash advance, purchase, special transfer, and special purchase) by the corresponding daily periodic rate(s) that has been previously disclosed to you. At the end of each day during the billing period, we apply the daily periodic rate for each segment of your account to the daily balance of each segment. Then at the end of the billing period, we add up the results of these daily calculations to arrive at your periodic finance charge for each segment. We add up the results from each segment to arrive at the total periodic finance charge for your account.
To get the daily balance for each segment of your account, we take the beginning balance for each segment and add any new transactions and any periodic finance charge calculated on the previous day’s balance for that segment. We then subtract any payments or credits posted as of that day that are allocated to that segment. This gives us the separate daily balance for each segment of your account. However, if you paid the New Balance shown on your previous statement in full (or if your new balance was zero or a credit amount), new transactions which post to your purchase or special purchase segments are not added to the daily balances.
To calculate your total finance charge, multiply your average daily balance by the daily periodic rate and by the number of days in the billing period. Due to rounding on a daily basis, there may be a slight variance between this calculation and the amount of finance charge actually assessed. - Determining Daily Periodic Rates. Divide the corresponding Annual Percentage Rates by 365 and round to the nearest 1/100,000th of 1%, not to exceed the maximum allowed by applicable law. If the daily periodic rates and corresponding Annual Percentage Rates increase, the finance charge will increase and your minimum payment may be greater. Refer to the IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES for daily periodic rates and Annual Percentage Rates.
OTHER CHARGES.
Copying Charge: $3.00 for a copy of a Periodic Statement and $13.00 for a copy of a Visa® transaction or $2.00 for a copy of a MasterCard® transaction (fee imposed per copy).
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR APPLYING FOR OR OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT:
