How We Will Calculate Your Balance: For Purchase balances, we will use a method called “average daily balance (including
new Purchases).” See the section titled Balances Subject to Interest Rate in your Credit Card Agreement for more details.

For Balance Transfer and Cash Advance balances, we will use an Average Balance Method (including new Balance Transfers and
new Cash Advances). This balance is calculated by adding the outstanding balance (including new Balance Transfers and new
Cash Advances and deducting payments and credits) for each day in the current billing cycle, together with the balances for
each day in the previous billing cycle for Balance Transfers and Cash Advances with transaction dates in the previous cycle and
posting dates in the current cycle, and then dividing by the number of days in the current billing cycle.

Additional information regarding the Monthly Custom Pay Plan Fee (Fixed Finance Charge): The monthly fee will be
disclosed at the time the Custom Pay Plan is created, will never exceed a monthly fee of 1.72%, and does not change over the
life of the Plan. The fee will be charged monthly until the Plan balance is paid in full. The total of all Monthly Custom Pay Plan
Fees billed for any specific Plan will not exceed the sum of the original Monthly Custom Pay Plan Fee times the original total
number of monthly payments established for the Plan. The fee for each Custom Pay Plan is based on the Plan duration, the
amount of Purchases assigned to the Plan, the APR that would otherwise apply to those Purchases, and other factors.

Military Lending Act Disclosure: The following disclosure applies to persons covered by the Military Lending Act – other
governmental programs and laws may also govern or apply but are not described in the following disclosure. The following
disclosure is required by the Military Lending Act.

Federal law provides important protections to members of the Armed Forces and their dependents relating to extensions of
consumer credit. In general, the cost of consumer credit to a member of the Armed Forces and his or her dependent may not
exceed an annual percentage rate of 36 percent. This rate must include, as applicable to the credit transaction or account: the
costs associated with credit insurance premiums; fees for ancillary products sold in connection with the credit transaction; any
application fee charged (other than certain application fees for specified credit transactions or accounts); and any participation
fee charged (other than certain participation fees for a credit card account).

Please refer to the Total Minimum Payment Due section of the Credit Card Agreement accompanying this disclosure to see how
your monthly minimum payment is calculated.
