Replacement Basic Cardmember About using your card You must tell us if the Basic Cardmember is no longer an employee or officer of the Company or does not want to be the Basic Cardmember. In that case, you must either close the Account, or propose another person to replace the Basic Cardmember. If you propose another person to replace the Basic Cardmember, that person must agree to assume the obligations and liabilities of the Basic Cardmember under this Agreement, as of the date that such person replaces the Basic Cardmember. That person is subject to our approval. You agree that the Basic Cardmember remains the Basic Cardmember until we approve a replacement or the Account is closed. Using the card Cards may be used for purchases. At our discretion, we may permit you to make cash advances, balance transfers or person-to-person transactions subject to Limits on person-to-person transactions. You cannot transfer balances from any other account issued by us and/or our affiliates. Each Cardmember acknowledges and agrees that cards are intended to be used for the Company's commercial or business purposes. You may arrange for certain merchants and third parties to store your card number and expiration date, so that, for example: ● the merchant may charge your account at regular intervals; or ● you may make charges using that stored card information. We may (but are not required to) tell these merchants and third parties if your expiration date or card number changes or if your account status is updated, including if your account is cancelled. If you do not want us to share your updated account information, please contact us using the number on the back of your card. Keep the cards safe. Do not let anyone use them. If a card is lost or stolen or the Account is being used without permission, contact us right away. The Account may not be used for illegal activities. Limits on person-to-person transactions Your person-to-person transactions may not exceed the $2,000 person-to-person transaction limit within any 30-day period. You agree to manage your Account so that the total of your person-to-person transactions in any 30-day period do not exceed the limit on person-to-person transactions. We may not approve a person-to-person transaction if it would cause your Account to exceed the person-to- person transaction limit or your Credit Limit. Promise to pay You promise to pay all charges, including: ● charges you make, even if you do not present your card or sign for the transaction, ● charges that other people make, whether or not you or an Additional Cardmember intend to let them use the Account, subject to applicable law, and if you let them use your Account, and ● charges that Additional Cardmembers make or permit others to make. Credit limit and cash advance limit We assign a Credit Limit to the Account. We may make part of the Credit Limit available for cash advances (Cash Advance Limit). There may also be a limit on the amount you can withdraw from ATMs in a given period. The Credit Limit and Cash Advance Limit are shown on page 1 of Part 1 and on each billing statement. We may increase or reduce the Credit Limit and Cash Advance Limit. We may do so even if you pay on time and the Account is not in default. You agree to manage the Account so that: ● the Account balance (including fees and interest) is not more than the Credit Limit, and ● the cash advance balance (including fees and interest) is not more than the Cash Advance Limit. We may approve charges that cause the Account balance to go over the Credit Limit. If we do this, we will not charge an overlimit fee. If we ask you to promptly pay the amount of the Account balance above the Credit Limit, you agree to do so. Declined transactions We may decline to authorize a charge. Reasons we may do this include suspected fraud and our assessment of your creditworthiness. This may occur even if the charge would not cause you to go over your Credit Limit and your Account is not in default. We are not responsible for any losses you or any Additional Cardmembers incur if we do not authorize a charge. And we are not responsible if any merchant refuses to accept the card. About your payments When you must pay You must pay at least the Minimum Payment Due by the Payment Due Date. The Minimum Payment Due and Payment Due Date are shown on each billing statement. Each statement also states the time and manner by which you must make your payment for it to be credited as of the same day it is received. For your payment to be considered on time, we must receive at least the Minimum Payment Due in such time and How to make payments Make payments to us in U.S. dollars with: ● a single check drawn on a U.S. bank, or ● a single negotiable instrument clearable through the U.S. banking system, for example a money order, or ● an electronic payment that can be cleared through the U.S. banking system. When making a payment by mail: ● make a separate payment for each Account, ● mail your payment to the address shown on the payment coupon on the billing statement, and ● write the Account number on your check or negotiable instrument and include the payment coupon. If your payment meets the above requirements, we will credit it to the Account as of the day we receive it, as long as we receive it by the time disclosed in the manner by the Payment Due Date shown on your billing statement. Each statement also shows a Closing Date. The Closing Date is the last day of the billing period covered by the statement. Each Closing Date is about 30 days after the previous statement's Closing Date. billing statement. If we receive it after that time, we will credit the payment on the day after we receive it. If your payment does not meet the above requirements, there may be a delay in crediting the Account. This may result in late fees and additional interest charges (see How Rates and Fees Work on page 2 of Part 1). We will not accept a payment made in a foreign currency or a payment drawn on an account at a bank located outside of the U.S. If we process a late payment, a partial payment, or a payment marked with any restrictive language, that will have no effect on our rights and will not change this Agreement. How we apply payments and credits Your Account may have balances with different interest rates. For example, purchases may have a lower interest rate than cash advances. If your Account has balances with different interest rates, here is how we generally apply payments in a billing period: ● We apply your payments, up to the Minimum Payment Due, first to the balance with the lowest interest rate, and then to balances with higher interest rates. ● After the Minimum Payment Due has been paid, we apply your payments to the balance with the highest interest rate, and then to balances with lower interest rates. In most cases, we apply a credit to the same balance as the related charge. For example, we apply a credit for a purchase to the purchase balance. We may apply payments and credits within balances, and among balances with the same interest rate, in any order we choose. About your Minimum Payment Due
